I, the mortal, come from the great world of Xuanhuang

"Alright, I'll take you to see a senior. I'm also planning to rescue this senior. After all these years, it would be too tragic if we didn't rescue him. Although they need a gatekeeper there, it's not a big problem. Without this senior, there shouldn't be any issues."

Fang Yu's words surprised Little Fairy Doctor, who she didn't understand who the senior Fang Yu was talking about was.

"Let's go to the academy and rescue that senior. After all, I've admired him for a long time, and it's time to rescue him. It would feel strange if we didn't. So, we need to resolve this matter and rescue him."

After saying this, Fang Yu and Little Fairy Doctor vanished, reappearing in an ocean formed of molten lava. Although the surroundings were incredibly hot, it had no effect on Little Fairy Doctor. Of course, it had even less of an impact on Fang Yu. With their strength, dealing with this situation was a piece of cake; they had nothing to worry about. Then, the two of them arrived beside a monster, which seemed oblivious to their presence and continued sleeping.

At this moment, Little Fairy Doctor realized that the monster in front of her was the senior Fang Yu had mentioned. Just as she was about to ask him a question, Fang Yu simply pointed at the monster, and the monster woke up.

Those blood-red eyes were enormous, bigger than a door, and the aura they emitted was so powerful that even Little Fairy Doctor would have felt weak if Fang Yu hadn't been there. Indeed, the aura emanating from the monster was terrifying. However, Fang Yu was not surprised by the monster's awakening and instead said with a smile.

"Senior, please don't be angry, and don't rush to attack. If you want to find your daughter, please don't make a move. We're here to save you, and we hope you'll listen to what I have to say. If you don't, things will get really bad, because what we're about to say is extremely important to you. We hope you can be rational and not act rashly in a moment of weakness. That wouldn't be good for you, and we hope you understand that. I know you have many questions, but I hope you won't have any doubts, because I'm about to explain. I hope you can stay calm and not get angry."

Fang Yu's chuckling yet somewhat rambling words finally pushed the monster to its limit, and it roared in anger.

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me right now, where is my daughter?"

"I already said, senior needs to calm down, you need to calm down, you absolutely must calm down. Don't think I have ulterior motives. I already said, I'm here to save you."

"You think you can rescue me? You're delusional. Since you know I'm here, you should know where you are. So stop daydreaming."

If the monster hadn't sensed danger emanating from Fang Yu, it would have already made its move. It was precisely because it sensed danger that it spoke so calmly.

"Senior, you are unaware of this. Since I dared to come and say such things, it proves I am confident I can rescue you. If you don't believe me, then there's nothing I can do. Don't you want to see your daughter? If you do, you must obey me. Since I've said it, I certainly have the ability to rescue you. So, you don't need to do anything now; just wait for the right opportunity. And that opportunity will come very soon. Don't worry, it will come very soon; you won't have to wait long. However, I hope you can do me a favor when it happens." "It's not a very troublesome matter. It's just that you need to hold off a guy for me. That guy is at the peak of the Nine-Star Dou Sheng realm, just like you, senior. However, he's a little weaker than you, so holding him off won't be a problem at all. As long as you agree to this condition, I will definitely let you see your daughter. I'm absolutely certain of that; there won't be any problems. Please rest assured, senior. Since I'm here and know so much, I hope you understand that everything I've said is true, and I have no intention of deceiving you. Please don't worry."

Fang Yu's words caused the monster to remain silent. It neither agreed immediately nor chose to believe him immediately, because it felt that Fang Yu was not lying to it. However, it still needed to remain silent and consider the matter carefully.

Why should I, the Emperor, believe you?

"Senior, you don't have to trust me. But if you don't want to see your daughter, then you don't need to trust me. If you want to see your daughter, then you have to trust me, because I can let you see her. This is your only option. If you don't want to choose that, then there's nothing I can do. In that case, you'll never see your daughter again. Don't think I'm threatening you, senior. Please don't think that way, and don't even think about attacking me. You can't hurt me right now, and I think you understand that. So now you should calmly think about whether or not to agree to my conditions. If you agree, then there will be no problem. If you don't agree, then don't blame me for being impolite. Anyway, you absolutely cannot hurt me. I'm confident enough in that. If I weren't confident, I wouldn't be here telling you these things. Alright, I've said what I should say, and I've also said what I shouldn't have said. If it weren't for this reason, I wouldn't have come to find you, senior, because coming to find you is a very dangerous thing."

"Alright, let's go. Senior, please think it over carefully. If you can't make up your mind, then you won't have time to think about it in a while. After all, I think you really want to see your daughter."

After saying this, Fang Yu left directly with Little Fairy Doctor. After they left, the monster roared and howled, turning the entire lava world upside down, but to no avail.

"Who exactly is that senior? And who is his daughter?"

After returning to her room, Little Fairy Doctor immediately asked Fang Yu who the monster was.

"He is Zi Yan's father, the previous Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon. He was trapped there because he wanted the inheritance of the Dou Di. That's why I need his help. His strength is definitely the most powerful in the entire Dou Qi Continent. If we can get his help, then we will have a sure chance to deal with the Soul Emperor. At least he can stop the Soul Emperor, and the Soul Emperor can't do anything to him. In terms of strength, the Soul Emperor is definitely no match for him. Under these circumstances, he is naturally our best helper. Releasing him will not be an easy task, since he is trapped by that Dou Di. So, the only way to rescue him is to wait for the right opportunity, until the Soul Emperor has found all the jade pendants and we can release him. That's the only way. I have no other way." Fang Yu's answer surprised Little Fairy Doctor, but after a moment's thought, she chuckled and said, "Actually, you have a way. It's just that he's treating you badly, that's why you said that, right? With your abilities, rescuing him wouldn't be difficult at all. You definitely have the strength, and I believe you do. It's just that because of his bad attitude, you chose to wait for the right opportunity, waiting for him to be released. That way, you can use his daughter to threaten him."

Little Fairy Doctor knew Fang Yu very well, and Fang Yu simply acquiesced to what she said without giving an immediate reply.

"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. Now you can rest assured, right? We have this trump card, so there's absolutely nothing to worry about. Even if the Soul Emperor really gets everything, he might not be able to win. Or rather, as long as I and that senior are here, he definitely can't win. If I didn't even have this confidence, why would I be here flirting and laughing with you? That's completely impossible. I should have been thinking about how to run away long ago. How could I possibly be an enemy of the Soul Emperor, right? So you can cultivate with peace of mind. You don't need to worry about anything. We'll handle everything. There won't be any accidents or troubles, right?"

"I'll take care of everything now, you don't need to worry at all."

"Alright, then you'd better be extra careful. After all, this is no small matter. You absolutely must be extra careful." After hearing Fang Yu's words, Little Fairy Doctor was at a loss. Apart from telling Fang Yu to be careful, there was nothing else she could do. She could tell that Fang Yu wouldn't change his mind because he had already planned everything. Since that was the case, there was no point in saying anything more. Under these circumstances, any words of advice she could offer would be useless. Fang Yu now thought he was a smart person and that he could control everything. But she still felt that Fang Yu's actions would be very dangerous. Even so, she couldn't persuade him anymore because no matter how much she tried, Fang Yu wouldn't change his mind.

After Little Fairy Doctor left, another guest arrived, and this guest was none other than Xiao Yan. Fang Yu was not surprised by Xiao Yan's arrival, because he knew very well that Xiao Yan was the person he worried about the most.

It wasn't his safety that was a concern, but rather the safety of his entire family, which was what Xiao Yan cared about most.

"If you're asking me how confident I am, I can only say I'm 98% confident."

Before Xiao Yan could even ask a question, Fang Yu had already posed and answered it. Although Xiao Yan didn't believe Fang Yu's answer, he could only manage a wry smile and say:
"In that case, let's hope we can succeed this time, otherwise, I'm afraid no one will have a good ending."

"Don't worry, we will all have a good ending. There will be no accidents. Don't worry."

Fang Yu's words left Xiao Yan with nothing but a wry smile as he shook his head and left.

Xiao Yan knew that no matter how much he said, it would be useless. So Xiao Yan left directly. Under these circumstances, no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be of no use. He always felt that Fang Yu's choice was too dangerous, and he had no idea how many trump cards Fang Yu had up his sleeve. Although Fang Yu kept saying that he was confident enough, he didn't really believe it because it was just too dangerous.

After Xiao Yan left, several more people came to find Fang Yu. Fang Yu was not surprised by their arrival. He simply nodded silently and did not say anything. To him, these people were nothing.

In any case, if he wasn't confident enough, he wouldn't have said so much or wasted his breath on so many people. It's precisely because he was confident that he said so much.

All of this was planned by him. If it wasn't planned, how could he have been so confident? Of course, the main reason was that he had enough strength to destroy the Soul Emperor.

He's not the kind of person who can destroy the Soul Emperor with just eight fighters.

He has sufficient strength.

"Yes, I really lack confidence, I have no confidence at all. But it doesn't matter, let them do whatever they want. As long as the plan succeeds, that's all that matters. If the plan succeeds, then I can return to the next world. Sigh, what a great thing! This is a huge opportunity, of course I can't let it go. I don't know what they're thinking, they have so little faith in me. To be honest, I'm speechless right now. They have so little faith in me that I want to give up. But it's too late to give up now. Giving up won't change anything. I can only stay here silently, there's nothing else I can do."

No one heard Fang Yu's mutterings, nor did anyone try to eavesdrop. They were completely unaware that Fang Yu was talking to himself; they were simply discussing how to help him resolve this trouble. However, their discussions yielded no results. After all, the Soul Emperor's strength was simply too overwhelming, leaving them with no chance of confrontation. They had no other choice but to trust Fang Yu. (End of Chapter)
