I am a boss in the world of nine uncles

"Such a thing actually happened!" Zhan Huang murmured as he caught a few snowflakes.

However, between heaven and earth, atop the snow-capped mountain, only the sound of the wind answered him.

"If that's the case, then don't blame me for bringing trouble to my family!"

After regaining his senses, Zhan Huang suddenly clenched his fist, and his body instantly soared into the air.

Not long after.

He returned to the gate of the Bai Mansion in West Lake, but this time he did not try to enter the mansion. Instead, he silently raised his right hand, and divine patterns suddenly flashed in his palm.

Inside the mansion.

In the pavilion.

Ah Hong suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart and instinctively raised her hand to cover her chest.

"what happened?"

Qin Yao immediately dropped the white chess piece in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know, I just suddenly feel a sharp pain in my heart," Ah Hong said, her body trembling.

Qin Yao's pupils contracted, and he suddenly raised his head to look outside the formation.

After seeing the divine patterns on the Demon Emperor's palm, he instantly understood everything.

In the original series, the Demon Emperor possessed a supreme treasure called the Myriad Manifestations Token, which allowed him to punish all demons at any time.

Even the female protagonist, Bai Yaoyao, suffered a lot because of this thing. In the end, she used the Lotus Purifying Fire to erode her bones and break her marrow, thus escaping the control of the demon race.

Now that Ah Hong has taken over Bai Yaoyao's body, she naturally inherits both the good and the bad, and the Demon Emperor's Myriad Manifestations Token is equally effective against her.

In a fleeting moment, having grasped the full meaning of cause and effect, Qin Yao took out the Karmic Fire Red Lotus with a flip of his hand and gently placed it three feet above Ah Hong's head.

Then, as he was moved by the thought, streaks of red light flew out from the lotus heart, continuously striking Ah Hong and gradually stripping away the karma of her demonic body...

Outside the Bai Mansion.

Zhanhuang continuously increased the amount of magical power poured into the Myriad Manifestations Token, gradually increasing it from 30% to 90%. The divine runes on his palms began to heat up, but there was still no one in sight from the wide-open mansion gate.

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! No demon can escape the control of the Myriad Manifestations Decree!"

Shocked, Zhan Huang roared inwardly, exerting all his strength to unleash the full power of the Myriad Manifestations Token, and the heat in his palms gradually became unbearable.

What shocked him most was that despite his best efforts, the result remained unchanged; the porch was still empty, let alone Xu Xuan coming to him crying and begging for forgiveness.

In other words, what he thought was his trump card had no effect whatsoever!
"Xu Xuan, Xu Xuan, come out here!"

Forced to stop his practice, Zhan Huang was somewhat weakened and shouted fiercely towards the gate.

"What are you shouting for?" Qin Yao asked, frowning as he came from the courtyard into the porch.

"Xu Xuan, is Bai Yaoyao dead?" Zhan Huang asked.

"Pooh."

Qin Yao spat at him and cursed, "You're the one who's dead."

"Then she's not at the Bai residence?"

Zhanhuang had no time to argue with him about his attitude; his gaze was fixed on Zhanhuang's eyes.

Qin Yao knew very well why he asked that question, so he called out with a hint of malice, "Yaoyao, Zhanhuang is looking for you."

Ah Hong approached slowly, her face rosy and her breathing steady, showing no sign of fatigue: "Looking for me?"

Zhan Huang: "???"

Why are you looking at me like that?

Seeing his eyes widen like copper bells, Ah Hong raised an eyebrow and asked.

Zhan Huang took a deep breath and shouted, "Aren't you a snake spirit? How can you be immune to the Myriad Manifestations Token?"

Ah Hong smiled and looked at Qin Yao: "Because I have his protection."

Zhan Huang: "..."

"Don't ask me how I did it, I won't tell you even if you ask." Qin Yao said indifferently, facing Zhan Huang's gaze.

"I've tried my best to overestimate you, but I still underestimated you," Zhan Huang said with mixed feelings.

He didn't know how much his opponent's power consumed. If it didn't consume much, and could even be used on a large scale to offset the control of the Myriad Manifestations Token over the demon race, then he, the Demon King, would surely be dead in name only.

Qin Yao shook his head, neither confirming nor denying: "Don't waste your time on me, it's pointless."

Zhan Huang paused slightly and said, "I now possess the dual destiny of Greedy Wolf and Broken Army. In a one-on-one fight, even the Heavenly Emperor would not be my match. If you are willing to give me the Seven Killings destiny, I can grant you one wish and a lifetime of peace."

[System Mission: Suppress the Demon Emperor and quell the demonic calamity.]

[Mission Details: If one possesses the three major destiny traits of Seven Killings, Broken Army, and Greedy Wolf, one can manipulate the Heavenly Dao with these traits, turning the public instrument of the Heavenly Dao into a tool for personal use, causing immense harm.]

The Demon Emperor Zhanhuang has already gathered the destinies of the Killing Wolf. Please suppress him and strip him of his destiny, thus quelling this demonic calamity caused by the Demon Emperor's greed.

[Task Rewards: Depends on task completion.]

Qin Yao's eyes lit up as he saw the system characters suddenly appear in front of him.

Although the system had previously stated that there were trigger missions in this world.

He had met almost all the main characters in the show, but the mission was still not triggered, causing his hopes to dwindle.

After all, any mission with a generous reward could not possibly be triggered by a random passerby.

Unexpectedly, this system task also requires the right timing; it cannot be triggered simply by meeting a key figure, and it is completely different from the triggering in the original "My Date with a Zombie".

Seeing his bright eyes and smiling face, Zhan Huang suddenly felt a surge of excitement and couldn't help but say:
"Speak boldly and confidently. Even if you say you want to be the ruler of the Three Realms, I am willing to rule the Three Realms with you after I conquer the Nine Heavens. Or, I may bestow upon you the title of King of Humans or Lord of the Underworld."

Qin Yao's smile faded, and he waved his hand, saying, "I had no such intention."

Zhan Huang said, "But I clearly saw your eyes light up after I stated my conditions."

If you have any concerns, you can tell me directly now; I will do everything in my power to ensure you have no worries.

Qin Yao said, "You're overthinking it."

Zhan Huang: "..."

"Yaoyao, let's go back."

Qin Yao had no intention of wasting time with him here, so he took Bai Yaoyao's hand and slowly walked towards the inner courtyard.

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Zhan Huang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the helplessness in his heart, and transformed into wisps of black smoke that soared into the sky.

Xu Xuan is right; there's no point in wasting time here.

Since we cannot find a breakthrough here, we should focus our main efforts on our own great cause.

If he can defeat the Nine Heavens and unify the Three Realms, he can turn back and slowly work on this tough nut.

In the blink of an eye.

half a month later.

Hundreds of thousands of powerful demons from all over the world were summoned by the Myriad Manifestations Order and gathered in the Northern Wilderness, the sacred land of the demon race, to join the Northern Wilderness Army. The total number of demon soldiers was 830,000, known as a million-strong army, and they marched towards Kunlun Mountain in a mighty manner.

This commotion naturally did not escape the notice of others. The Nine Heavens were the first to receive the news and swiftly dispatched 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals to aid Kunlun. They also issued a call to arms to all cultivators in the world to defend Kunlun, promising that anyone who participated in the battle and performed exceptionally well could be promoted to the ranks of immortals! Zhanhuang knew the importance of speed in warfare, so he traveled day and night, making rapid progress. In just two and a half days, he led an army of 800,000 from the Northern Wilderness to the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

At this time, there were fewer than 200,000 cultivators in the mountains, and many of those who had received the challenge were still on their way.

Eight hundred thousand against one hundred thousand—the sheer disparity in troop strength was terrifying, and many cultivators' hands trembled as they gripped their immortal swords.

The Azure Emperor and the White Emperor moved through the crowd, repeatedly reassuring everyone: the demon soldiers may appear numerous, but many of them are actually just charlatans. They are far inferior to the heavenly soldiers and generals, and even to you.

Under their earnest reassurance, the terrified cultivators finally refrained from fleeing in panic and instead placed their hopes on the Kunlun Immortal Array.

As long as the immortal formation remains intact, there will be no direct confrontation.

Without close combat, there's no need to worry about getting bogged down in a war and ultimately being killed by monsters using the tactic of ants biting an elephant.

"kill!"

In the center of the chariot, Zhan Huang, dressed in red like a groom, waved a blood-red command flag and roared.

Hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers unleashed a variety of attacks, and the vast light rushed toward the Kunlun light curtain like trash.

However, these attacks were far more terrifying than trash. The array's light barrier trembled constantly under the impact, and no one knew when it would collapse.

The Azure Emperor and the White Emperor stood at opposite ends of the formation, each controlling the formation with themselves as its core.

The goddess Xiao Xiang was the commander-in-chief of the immortal soldiers and cultivators, and her command flags were almost constantly in motion.

On the chariot.

Zhan Huang's gaze was icy as he stared intently at the light screen ahead. Suddenly, he unleashed his natal lotus fire, which transformed into red arrows that pierced through the sky and headed straight for Xiao Xiang.

Xiao Xiang's expression changed drastically, and he immediately mobilized troops for defense.

However, the troops she summoned were not strong enough to withstand the arrows; instead, they were constantly killed by the arrows, their bodies and souls destroyed.

This also caused many cultivators to feel fear and dare not act according to the command flag anymore.

The White Emperor gasped, desperately manipulating the formation in an attempt to block the arrows.

But reality gave him a resounding slap in the face. The array's light barrier could block the onslaught of thousands of demons, but it could not stop Zhan Huang's natal lotus fire. As a result, a large number of immortal soldiers and cultivators were continuously shot down.

"Azure Emperor, urgently request reinforcements!"

His eye twitched violently, but he still shouted loudly.

The Azure Emperor's face was ashen. He immediately wrote a divine talisman and sent it straight to the Ninth Heaven.

half an hour.

Just as the cultivators' confidence was plummeting and even their fighting spirit was beginning to crumble, a phoenix cry suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth, followed by bursts of fierce flames falling from the sky, sweeping towards the demons like a plow sweeping through a field.

Screams erupted one after another as countless demon soldiers perished in the sea of ​​fire...

Zhan Huang silently raised his head, only to see the Queen Mother riding a phoenix, followed by the celestial beings of the Heavenly Court.

These fierce flames were brought down by the phoenix. Although they didn't cause much actual damage, they looked very powerful and were enough to boost the morale of the Kunlun immortal cultivators...

As he expected, when the Queen Mother arrived and the immortals came, the heavenly soldiers and generals did not react much, but the immortal cultivators could not help but cheer, their morale soaring, which caused the Kunlun light screen to suddenly shine brightly, its brilliance dazzling.

Zhan Huang suddenly raised his hand and flung out a huge fire lotus, absorbing all the divine fire spewed out by the phoenix, and then released it fiercely, burning towards the gods.

The gods used their magic to form a celestial light that forcefully blocked the divine fire's attack. The fire phoenix also shut its mouth to avoid becoming an accomplice to Zhanhuang!

Both sides used their own methods and fought for a long time. When Zhanhuang realized that he could not gain any advantage, he ordered the demons to set up camp and prepare for a protracted war.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother immediately led the immortals into Kunlun and addressed the two emperors, Qing and Bai, who were welcoming them:
"I think it will be necessary to write the extermination of demons into the heavenly rules in the future. As long as the demon race is killed to the point of having no outstanding heroes, this kind of crisis will no longer exist."

Qingdi: "..."

The White Emperor pursed his lips and said, "Your Majesty's words make sense, but that's all for the future."

The best course of action now is to defend Kunlun at all costs.

After all, Kunlun is the first line of defense of the Nine Heavens; if it falls, the consequences will be unimaginable!

The Queen Mother said, "The celestial officials I brought can stay, but I cannot stay here to guard them forever."

The White Emperor hesitated and said, "Zhanhuang is coming with overwhelming force. With the Empress not here, I'm afraid..."

"If I stay here, what will happen to the Nine Heavens?" the Queen Mother asked in return.

The White Emperor was speechless.

The Queen Mother turned to the Azure Emperor: "Where is Xu Xuan? Didn't you send him a summons?"

The Azure Emperor's expression was strange: "The Nine Heavens did not agree to his conditions..."

The Queen Mother frowned and said, "Times have changed. Does he not have even a shred of righteousness in his heart?"

Qingdi: "..."

The White Emperor said, "Your Majesty, if there are no unexpected changes, Kunlun will likely fall sooner or later."

"Do you think Xu Xuan will be this variable?" the Queen Mother asked casually.

"I don't know, but it's possible." The White Emperor said, "Your Majesty, don't forget that Xu Xuan has the Seven Killings destiny."

The Queen Mother suddenly fell silent, lowered her gaze to the immortal cultivator who had died from arrows in the mountains, and gently exhaled a breath of stale air:
"Azure Emperor, I will guard this place for you. Go and summon Xu Xuan."

"Yes." The Azure Emperor clasped his hands in greeting, and his body suddenly transformed into a streak of azure light, flying swiftly out of Kunlun.

"Your Majesty, who is this Xu Xuan?" asked one of the immortals among the crowd.

The Queen Mother gazed at the demons before her and calmly said, "Xu Xuan is none other than the former Zi Xuan!"

Upon hearing this, the immortals were immediately invigorated.

Everyone knows that back then, Zi Xuan, in terms of pure combat strength, was second only to the Qing and Bai Emperors.

Now it seems he has other opportunities, and if they come, he will surely be a pillar of strength.

Not long after.

A stream of azure light suddenly descended in front of the Bai Mansion in West Lake, manifesting as the figure of the Azure Emperor.

"Is there something you need?" Qin Yao arrived with a golden light and looked up to ask.

"The Demon Emperor Zhanhuang is leading a million-strong army to attack Kunlun. The battle on the front lines in Kunlun is now critical. The Queen Mother has sent me to bring you to join the army," the Azure Emperor said succinctly.

Qin Yao asked, "Did she agree to my three conditions?"

"Once you go to Kunlun, all you need to do is say a few kind words, and I'll plead for you on your behalf. There's a high chance it will work," said the Azure Emperor.

Qin Yao shook his head: "I don't like this uncertainty, and the Queen Mother isn't sincere either. Your Majesty, please return. I can't go to this battlefield."

The Azure Emperor said, "Xu Xuan, that is the Queen Mother!"

“Even if she were the Heavenly Emperor, I wouldn’t accept the summons without sincerity,” Qin Yao said decisively.

Qingdi: "..."

At dusk.

The Azure Emperor passed through the clouds and landed on the mountain peak, instantly attracting the attention of a group of immortal giants.

"Why are you alone? Where is Xu Xuan?" Amidst the assembled immortals, the Queen Mother asked in a low voice. (End of Chapter)
