Hell Emperor.

Chapter 286 Xia Wei - Persistence
Seeing that Ren Changhong had uncovered the enemy's secrets and found a way to win as soon as she arrived, Li Fei'e's bright eyes also showed a little more admiration: "Master Ren's arrival is really crucial! With her, we also have hope of defeating the enemy."

Shen Qingge listened carefully. The skills of the monk in precious robes were pure evil skills, which made her frown:
"You transfer your own mortal wounds to other monks, letting them die in your place. This method is extremely evil. You still have the audacity to say that they are immortal. It's really laughable."

The lie was exposed, and the monk Baosha glared at everyone: "What do you know? It is their honor to sacrifice their lives for me and their souls to enter the golden wheel first. They are so happy that they don't even have time to say anything. How can you say anything?"

He swept his eyes across the crowd, only stopping for a moment on Ren Changhong. An indescribable awe welled up in his heart, as if he had met a terrifying natural enemy. He spoke in a trembling voice:
"The one you just used was the Soul-Chasing Sword from the Thirteen Swords of Shura? That is a high-level skill of the Demon Palace. So, you are Shura..."

Ren Changhong raised her eyebrows. Seeing that her identity was revealed by the monk Baosha, she did not hide it and said in a cold voice: "You are quite knowledgeable. You can recognize the exquisiteness of the Thirteen Swords of Shura. So what if I am Shura?"

The monk Baosha immediately folded his hands and bowed, saying:

"So, you are all from the Mara Palace! The Golden Wheel Palace has always followed the Mara Palace's lead, and the Golden Wheel Palace Master even gave the main account to the Mara Palace Master. As a disciple of the Golden Wheel Palace, I naturally dare not offend any Asura. I was wrong about this matter. If you just want money, I have no objection even if you tear down the Vajra Temple and take it away."

The words of the monk Baosha made everyone slightly stunned. They looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes, as well as a deep sense of disbelief.

Not long ago, the monk Baosha was extremely furious and wanted to teach everyone a lesson. However, when he heard the name of the Mara Palace, his hostility disappeared all of a sudden. He became timid and uneasy, and became servile. Even if everyone demolished the temple, he had no intention of fighting back.

“How could this be…” Li Fei’e was stunned. He didn’t understand what was going on, so he looked to his master beside him for help.

Shen Qingge pondered for a moment before speaking: "It seems that the power of the Demon Palace is even greater than we imagined..."

Shen Qingge took a deep breath. To be honest, they were all fortunate enough to have seen the grace of the Lord of the Demon Palace in the underworld. Just a few drops of blood were enough to allow a True Immortal to break through. Shen Qingge had never heard of such a thing. No wonder the monk in front of her was so afraid.

Only the people in the underworld understand how terrifying the Lord of the Demon Palace is. Shen Qingge was born in the Immortal Sect, but she had never known the situation in the underworld. She only knew that the legendary Lord of the Demon Palace was very powerful, so she had to look at her master with questioning eyes, hoping that she, who came from the Demon Palace, could answer everyone's questions.

For a moment, Li Fei'e was seen looking at Shen Qingge, Shen Qingge was looking at Ren Changhong, and Ren Changhong was looking at Li Fei'e because of Youdie, and everyone was staring at each other.

Ren Changhong coughed dryly. Seeing that the crisis seemed to have been resolved and the monk Baosha was no longer hostile, he said, "Her Highness Moro is extremely powerful. Her name is effective wherever she goes... So, why are you here? Why are you fighting him?"

"We are here to seek justice for those who died unjustly."

Xia Wei's calm tone concealed an unchangeable determination and a hint of extremely suppressed anger. She was like a volcano about to erupt, with a dangerous aura burning all over her body.

Seeing this, Shen Qingge was filled with worry. She quickly pulled Xia Wei and gently persuaded her, "Xia Wei, he has already given up resistance and admitted his mistakes. Why do you have to kill him and stir up trouble again? If you really offend the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace, you will not be able to take a single step on this land. You should forgive others when you can. Otherwise, let's both take a step back and let it go, okay?"

“It doesn’t count!”

The only response to Shen Qingge was Xia Wei's firm words.

"Forget it now. Who will avenge the vengeance? Who will redress the injustice? Since I have seen it, I will never sit idly by! Does he think that by saying something wrong, he can resurrect the dead and escape punishment? Only by making his soul fly away and never reincarnate, can I be satisfied!"

Xia Wei roared angrily, her roar was sharp, and overwhelming murderous intent emanated from her body. Even the entire ancient temple seemed to be frightened by the murderous intent and began to shake violently.

After hearing what Xia Wei said, everyone had different expressions.

Shen Qingge let out a long sigh. Xia Wei acted so impulsively that who knows what the consequences might be. However, her heart was as hard as iron, and she was stubborn and paranoid. Even Shen Qingge himself could not persuade her at all and could only let her do what she wanted.

Li Fei'e was full of admiration, and was determined to fight alongside Xia Wei. Xia Wei actually dared to talk back to her master, and even made her speechless. This kind of situation was rare. In most cases, it was other people who were ashamed of themselves after being told off by their master.

Even Ren Changhong, who had been a Shura for many years, couldn't help but secretly click his tongue, thinking that Xia Wei's murderous intent was so shocking that it was no less than that of the Shura King who had been killing for a thousand years. If she were to use the Thirteen Swords of Shura, the power would probably be sky-high.

Xia Wei's eyes flashed purple, and she said to her family members beside her: "Uncle Shen, and Sister Fei Moth, you will fly up to the sky on Meng Junyao later, and let me deal with him. Now that I know his weakness, I have a way to break his immortal body. Master Ren, please go up to the sky with them."

Hearing Xia Wei's name, Ren Changhong couldn't help but smile: "No need to be so distant. Since you are someone recognized by Xiao Qingge and Xiao Fei'e, I will call you Xiao Wei from now on, and you can just call me Sister Hong."

At the side, Shen Qingge's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he held it back in the end.

In Shen Qingge's memory, Ren Changhong treated her like her mother and brought her up. Now, she has been a Shura for so many years. Although she looks young, her life span is already sixty or seventy years old. Now she has become Xia Wei's sister. By this calculation, doesn't Xia Wei's generation status exceed hers?
Shen Qingge glanced at her disciple Li Fei'e again. If she was counted as a disciple, Xia Wei's generation was younger than hers, but her realm was the same as hers, at the peak of the fifth level. According to the cultivation generation of the master being the one who has achieved success, she should be of the same generation as her.

It wouldn't be bad if it wasn't already. Once Shen Qingge started to calculate, she felt overwhelmed and it was a tangled mess.

However, Ren Changhong was her master after all, so how could she, as a disciple, refute his words and accuse him? That would mess up the order of seniority and set a bad precedent for Li Fei'e. From now on, if Li Fei'e talked back to her, she could say that it was her master who taught her.

Thinking of what was going to happen next, Shen Qingge's eyes went dark, and he quickly shook his head, throwing it all behind him, and returned to the topic. He called Meng Junyao over, led Li Fei'e and Ren Changhong to climb onto the dragon's body, and flew into the sky together. On Meng Junyao's back, Ren Changhong was a little curious, and reached out to touch Meng Junyao's flawless white dragon scales, but heard a giggle from Meng Junyao below, and the dragon's body swayed, as if it was tickled.

This made it difficult for the people on the dragon's body. Under Meng Junyao's shaking, they felt dizzy and almost fell down from the air.

Li Fei'e finally recovered and said with a sad face: "Master, otherwise, we should just fly the swords. Don't bother Sister Jun Yao next time..."

Hearing this, Ren Changhong coughed dryly and said, "Sorry, I was a little curious last time, what kind of dragon would be targeted by the Chi Demon King? Now that I have come here to ride it, it is extraordinary, so I couldn't help but touch it. By the way... After I left, the Chi Demon King didn't continue to chase you, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Shen Qingge and Li Fei'e recalled what happened last time.

The battle with the Chi Demon King was extremely brutal. Everyone tried their best, and with the help of the Nether Spirit Divine Art, they were able to repel the Chi Demon King. It was a narrow escape. If anyone among them had retreated, they would all have died.

On the way, everyone remained vigilant at all times and stayed together. No one was left alone, just to guard against a sneak attack from the Chi Demon King. However, until they arrived at the Vajra Baolun Temple, they did not see the Chi Demon King come again, as if all their worries were in vain.

"The Chi Demon King did not show up... It's strange. According to the habits of the Chi, once it sets its sights on a prey, it will never give up even if it has to chase it to the ends of the earth. When we rested these days, we had to leave a few family members to watch over the night to avoid a surprise attack. But since that day, the Chi Demon King seemed to have disappeared, without even a trace of its scent left behind."

Shen Qingge frowned, feeling very puzzled. He could only assume that the Chi Demon King was still lurking and had not found an opportunity to attack yet.

When Xia Wei returned, the team's strength was significantly improved. No matter how powerful the Chi Demon King was, he was still a little weaker than the former Lord of Guangwang Palace. Perhaps it found that Xia Wei was too strong, so it hid away.

Ren Changhong didn't think much about it and said carelessly: "Don't worry, the Chi Demon King must have been frightened by the little moth's magic weapon and dared not show his head again, lest he lose his life. It seems that he will not come to trouble you again."

"Maybe……"

Shen Qingge did not comment.

After all, Chi is a terrifying monster that can lie dormant for a thousand years in order to transform into a dragon. It is impossible for Chi to be impatient. As far as patience is concerned, there are probably few immortals who can compare with Chi.

In Shen Qingge's opinion, the Chi Demon King must be afraid of the strength of everyone, so he chose to endure and hide, waiting for the opportunity in secret.

In any case, as long as the Chi Demon King does not show up, everyone must be vigilant at all times to avoid sneak attacks. No matter which family member is injured, it is unacceptable.

Li Fei'e didn't think much about it. She actually agreed with Ren Changhong that if the Chi Demon King showed up again, they would just kill it. Why should they worry about it all day long like a frightened bird?
Li Fei'e's attention was on another matter. When Ren Changhong mentioned his experience with the Chi Demon King, Li Fei'e also remembered another Shura who followed Ren Changhong. Meng Junyao said that the aura of that person was exactly the same as that of the person with whom he had a predestined relationship in the past, and that person with a predestined relationship was Ye Jie.

When Li Fei'e thought of this, he could no longer suppress his confusion and asked Ren Changhong: "Sister Hong, why did you come alone this time? Where is the Shura who came with you last time? Why didn't he come?"

Li Fei'e's words immediately attracted Shen Qingge's attention. On normal days, she would definitely scold Li Fei'e for being disrespectful. How could she mess up the order of seniority and call the master "sister"? But now, when she heard Li Fei'e mention that Shura, Shen Qingge didn't care about admonishing etiquette. Her cold eyes were filled with deep worry, and her breath was no longer stable. She just let Changhong solve her doubts.

Ren Changhong didn't notice anything unusual about the two of them, he just thought they were concerned about him: "You mean Shura Jie? He is carrying out the mission assigned to him by His Highness Moro, so he can't come with me. This time, we were able to win the competition smoothly, thanks to him, otherwise, I'm afraid I would have no choice but to commit suicide..."

When mentioning Shura Jie, Ren Changhong's eyes softened noticeably, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a little warmth arose in his heart.

I don't know when the surroundings fell silent. Ren Changhong looked up and saw that the two of them were looking at him. There seemed to be some disbelief in their eyes, as if there was some secret about him that made them obsessed. Ren Changhong was confused:

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"That Shura... do you know his name?" Shen Qingge could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart. His cold face showed a rare urgency and he asked hurriedly.

"Name? His name is Ye Jie."

Ren Changhong's slow and unhurried words were like a thunderclap in everyone's ears. No matter whether it was Li Fei'e or Shen Qingge, after hearing that name, their eyes were dull for a moment and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Memories of the past kept emerging in their minds, and when the astonishment subsided, what replaced it was only sincere shock and ecstasy.

"That's great... Brother Jie is still alive!" Li Fei'e could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. His eyes turned red and tears of joy welled up in his eyes.

When Ye Jie's soul flew away, she did not cry, but felt as if a big stone was pressing on her heart. All she could feel was endless sorrow, which made her breathless. On the contrary, now that she knew that Ye Jie was very likely still alive, she felt only endless relief and joy, which made her cry with joy.

At the side, Shen Qingge bit her lips lightly, her arms trembling slightly. She was full of emotion, but still maintained her usual calmness: "Wait a minute, it may just be someone with the same name... After all, we saw Ye Jie's soul fly away with our own eyes. We must know the details before we can make an accurate judgment."
