Hell Emperor.

Chapter 287 Xia Wei - Victory
"Wait a minute... do you know Ye Jie?"

After hearing what the two people said, Ren Changhong was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted, with a bit of disbelief in his expression.

From what they said, it seemed that they had known Shura Jie for a long time, but how was that possible?
Shen Qingge had a complicated expression, but he nodded in the end: "All signs indicate that the Shura Jie that Master knows is very likely our former companion."

Li Fei'e was delighted, but also puzzled. He asked, "We clearly saw with our own eyes that under the influence of the Dark Spirit Divine Art, Brother Jie burned out the last bit of his soul and disappeared without a trace. How could he become a Shura?"

Ren Changhong wanted to ask more questions, but at this moment, the violent fluctuations of spiritual power coming from below attracted everyone's attention and interrupted their words.

By the time everyone rose into the sky together, Xia Wei's killing move, which she had prepared for a long time, had now been fully prepared.

She no longer suppressed the surging spiritual power in her body. She let out a low roar and her feet moved rapidly with the Xuanying Step, which also contained some of the charm of the Liufeng Huixue Step. Her pretty figure spun at high speed like a gyroscope, and her eyes shone with purple light.

The laser shot out like a sword wielded by a god. As Xia Wei's body spun, it ruthlessly cut everything around it. Anyone who came into contact with it was cut in half. Houses collapsed, trees fell, and the monks in the temple were unable to put up any resistance. They were swept away by the magic light and died without a complete body.

No matter where the monks hid in the temple, they could not escape death under Xia Wei's indiscriminate laser sweep. The temple, which was full of vitality not long ago, has now turned into ruins, with only broken walls and broken walls left. The ground is in a mess, and blood can be seen spilling under the rubble from time to time. All life has been destroyed at this moment.

This scene made the monk Baosha's heart tremble and his expression tense. Not long ago, although he saw Ren Changhong perform the Thirteen Swords of Shura, he did not see her wearing a Shura mask on her face, so he doubted her Shura identity. Now seeing Xia Wei's extremely vicious means, not even letting anyone go, if she is not Shura, then what else could she be? He could only blame his bad luck for attracting the evil star to come to his door, and he was afraid that he would not be able to escape.

"This time, let's see how you can maintain your immortality!"

Xia Wei growled, her angry eyes gleaming with light, as if she had already seen the death of her enemy.

Since we know that the so-called immortality of Monk Baosha is just the transfer of his own injuries to other monks in the hall, it is quite easy to crack it. We just need to kill all the other monks.

"She...she..."

Seeing Xia Wei's amazing methods, even Ren Changhong on Meng Junyao's back was speechless for a moment.

Now Ren Changhong finally understood why Xia Wei had specifically instructed several people to fly into the sky. If they didn't do so, they would probably be injured by the indiscriminate magic light.

"Her strength is so amazing? Why didn't I see her when I came here last time?"

Ren Changhong coughed dryly. The strength displayed by Xia Wei was really beyond her expectations. Even she could not find any way to deal with the magic light that swept across the army. If she fought with Xia Wei, she would probably be killed in a moment.

Both of them were at the peak of the fifth level, but there was such a huge gap in their strength. Thinking of how he had called Xia Wei "Xiao Wei" not long ago, Ren Changhong blushed and was speechless. He thought that she should call him "Xiao Hong" instead.

Shen Qingge also saw the confusion and embarrassment of his master, and answered with a smile: "She is Ajie's disciple. Although she is a little impulsive, she is still very reliable."

As he was speaking, Xia Wei slowly stepped forward, walked in front of the trembling monk, and asked sharply: "Let me ask you, do you know your sin?"

The monk Baosha nodded hurriedly: "I know my sins."

"Since you have confessed your guilt, I will kill you and give an explanation to the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace!"

The anger in Xia Wei's eyes did not diminish. She actually listened to Shen Qingge's previous words. After all, this was the territory of the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace. If there was no explanation, it would not end well.

The monk Baosha was completely panicked, thinking that this question was a trap, and he quickly changed the subject: "Wait, actually this was all done by the monks under my tutelage, I didn't know, I am not guilty!"

"You are derelict in your supervisory duties and refuse to change. Then I will kill you and help the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace clean up his mess!" Xia Wei said coldly.

The monk Baosha didn't know how to answer. It seemed like he was going to die anyway. He was about to speak in explanation, but he saw two points of devilish light flying through the air, burning a big hole in his forehead. His consciousness gradually faded away, and his body collapsed to the ground, without a trace of breath coming out of him.

Ren Changhong: “…”

Seeing Xia Wei's actions of being possessed by the killing star, Ren Changhong's mouth twitched. She was even more like Shura than himself. He couldn't help but ask the disciple beside him: "Are you sure she is reliable?"

Shen Qingge was very upset. She had just said a few good words for her in front of her master, but she didn't expect Xia Wei to come back with a big one. Now she didn't know what to say, so she had to bring out another shield:

"She is Ajie's disciple after all. Master, you have met Ajie, so you should understand, right?"

After hearing the name Ye Jie, Ren Changhong no longer questioned it, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at Xia Wei became unusual.

In the Demon Palace, no one had ever given Ren Changhong such a reliable feeling as Ye Jie. Even the Demon Palace Master, who was so majestic and superior to all living beings, sacrificed himself like abandoning a piece in a game of chess, without a single ripple in his heart. It was impossible for him to be as reliable as Ye Jie.

Ren Changhong still remembered that when they were at a disadvantage in the competition of the Nether Spirit Divine Art, Ye Jie would rather sacrifice both of them than leave her to live alone. If this was not reliable, then what else could be considered reliable?
Li Fei'e didn't think too much about it. Seeing Xia Wei easily defeated the powerful enemy, he could no longer suppress his joy. He patted Meng Junyao on the shoulder and said to her, "Let's go down and tell Xia Wei the good news that Brother Jie is still alive. Sister Xia Wei cares about Brother Jie the most. If she hears this news, she will definitely be very excited!"

Shen Qingge was worried, and his face showed a thoughtful look: "Last time, I remember that Ajie clearly came with Master, why didn't he reveal his identity and recognize us? Is there something hidden that we don't know? Did he lose his memory? Or is he worried about something?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and a hint of worry appeared on their brows.

They had complete trust in Ye Jie, and Ye Jie did not choose to recognize them. Perhaps there was some unknown secret behind this.

Ren Changhong pondered for a while and found the problem: "Now I understand why Youdie and Ajie are so close and why he turned her into a fourth-grade magic weapon. It turns out that you two have known each other for a long time."

Hearing this, Li Fei'e was also stunned: "Wait a minute, is it Brother Jie who turned Youdie into a Netherworld magic weapon instead of you, Sister Hong?" Ren Changhong nodded: "That's right, not only Youdie, but also I have been turned into his Netherworld magic weapon. At first, I just thought that he was gifted in the Netherworld Divine Art, and could master special skills that ordinary people have not discovered. I heard that he was turned into a third-grade magic weapon before, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"A third-grade...divine weapon?"

Li Fei'e's heart trembled. She and Shen Qingge looked at each other and both understood each other's thoughts.

As soon as the name of the third-grade artifact came out, they were almost sure of Ye Jie's identity. It should be known that the reason why Ye Jie's soul was scattered was because the Black Blade Demon-Slaying Sword, which had turned into a divine weapon, was too powerful, causing his soul to completely disintegrate.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Ren Changhong quickly reacted: "There are only a few people who are qualified to cultivate the Nether Spirit Divine Art, even in the Nether Spirit Palace, and it is even more impossible in other places. If you really knew Ajie before, could it be that you turned him into a third-grade divine weapon?"

Speaking of this, Ren Changhong raised his eyebrows, and a hint of curiosity appeared in his eyes.

The quality of the Nether Spirit's magic weapon has nothing to do with the level of the technique, or any other factors. It only depends on the bond between the two.

The person who could transform Ye Jie into a third-grade divine weapon must have a relationship with Ye Jie that was one of life and death.

Such a relationship is quite rare. Ordinary practitioners are full of intrigues, constantly calculating for a little benefit, and betraying their family and companions without mercy. Ren Changhong has a deep understanding of this. She used to be such a person. Where can she find a confidant who can share life and death with her?

After all that happened, Ren Changhong was free, but she did not feel relieved in her heart. The person who really worried her was still in the Demon Palace. Although he gave her freedom, he still could not escape.

Now, hearing that there is another person whose relationship with Ye Jie can even reach the point of sharing life and death, Ren Changhong is extremely curious. She keeps scanning the pretty faces of Shen Qingge and Li Fei'e with a joking gaze, wanting to see who has accomplished this.

"This immortal body is really troublesome, but fortunately we are better than him!"

At this moment, everyone heard a burst of joyful words. As Meng Junyao fell back to the ground, Xia Wei also came over.

Seeing Xia Wei's victorious return, Shen Qingge said with emotion: "Master, the person you are talking about is Xia Wei."

"is her……"

Ren Changhong was slightly stunned and looked at Xia Wei's figure carefully. She was young, but there was a blazing fire in the depths of her eyes. Her figure was petite, but gave people an unusually reliable feeling. Even if you just look at her from a distance, you can see that she is extraordinary.

"Ajie is lucky to have such a disciple. Her aptitude seems to be better than the rest of us."

Ren Changhong nodded secretly and smiled at Xia Wei again.

Li Fei'e reminded softly: "It's not like that, it's originally like this. Sister Xia Wei has nine innate magical powers, I only have seven, and Master is even worse, with only five..."

Shen Qingge looked indifferent, and did not feel ashamed of his lack of natural talents or supernatural powers.

The matter of innate supernatural powers is a remnant of grace from the previous life and is not determined by one's own will. Even if one's innate supernatural powers are not as good as others, there is nothing to complain about.

However, when Ren Changhong learned that Xia Wei actually possessed nine innate magical powers, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised: "Nine talents, first-level reincarnation? This is incredible..."

The first-grade reincarnation is the best reincarnation that the top immortals can enjoy. Even if the Lord of Yama Palace wants to reincarnate, he can only choose the first-grade reincarnation at most. There is no higher option. Now that he heard that Xia Wei was born as a first-grade reincarnation, Ren Changhong couldn't help but think more highly of her.

Xia Wei smiled calmly and said to everyone, "By the way...what were you talking about just now? Why did I hear you mention Master's name?"

With Xia Wei's current level, any movement around her, no matter how slight the sound, can be heard by her ears. Even in battle, she can still devote some of her attention to her surroundings.

Seeing that Ren Changhong and others kept mentioning Ye Jie's name, Xia Wei couldn't help but feel curious. If she were to ask who was most concerned about Ye Jie's news, it would undoubtedly be her. As soon as the battle was over, she hurriedly asked everyone, wanting to know what they were talking about.

Seeing this, Shen Qingge also turned his gaze to his master for instructions: "Master, please tell us all the news related to Ajie."

The serious expressions of the crowd also infected Ren Changhong invisibly. She was also very concerned about Ye Jie, so she naturally did not hide it and said:

"I can tell you about him, but you also have to tell me about his past deeds. Although I fought with him in the Nether Palace and defeated powerful enemies, I have never known what he experienced in the past, and he has never mentioned it to me..."

Ren Changhong pursed her lips. She really wanted to know more about Ye Jie. She wanted to know what kind of person he was in the past and why his apprentice and even his apprentice were always worried about him. It was a pity that Ye Jie did not give her this opportunity. However, she had found a perfect opportunity now.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Knowing Ye Jie's whereabouts was more important than anything else.

After the surroundings became safe, Nan Linghe, Hua Xiaomei and others soon walked out of the Qionglou painting, gathered together with everyone, and listened carefully to Ren Changhong's story.

Ren Changhong told the whole story, from her first meeting with Ye Jie in the Demon Palace, to her later mission to the Nether Palace, where she was unable to complete the competition and had to ask for help from Ye Jie, who had transformed into a third-grade Nether Palace magic weapon, and how she finally got the Phantom Butterfly. The two of them went on stage to compete together, and after going through untold hardships, they defeated Su Miao of the Nether Palace and won the competition. She told the whole story in full.

During Ren Changhong's narration, Xia Wei's body kept shaking, she covered her mouth in surprise from time to time, and tears appeared in her eyes. Even if she only heard Ren Changhong's description, she knew that the man must be the master. Nan Linghe and others were full of admiration. Even in the Demon Palace, Ye Jie was the most dazzling one.

Only Li Fei'e and Shen Qingge looked at each other with uneasy expressions, especially after hearing that the chief account of the Nether Spirit Palace had lost the competition to the Moluo Palace. Their faces turned pale, as if something very bad had happened.
