Hell Emperor.

Chapter 422 Su Miao-Seeking Help
"It's you...you're still alive?"

Seeing the figure hiding in the dark, Ye Jie was slightly surprised.

Hiding here is the red veil that was supposed to be swallowed by the formless ghost king.

Compared with the last time, the red veil looked extremely disheveled, and the red wedding dress was covered with sand, as if it had rolled in the mud.

Seeing that Ye Jie had discovered her, the woman in red veil pointed to a stone on the side of the road, clasped her hands together, and then suddenly opened them.

Ye Jie understood what she meant. It seemed that under the illumination of the Soul-Calming Stone, the body of the Formless Ghost King exploded, and the Red Veiled Ghost took the opportunity to escape, thus avoiding the fate of being completely refined.

However, looking at the red veil's current state, it would probably take some effort to restore it to its original state.

"Great, since you are still alive, I need to see someone now, let me go see her!"

Thinking of Hong Gaitou's ability, Ye Jie was overjoyed. He rushed forward, grabbed Hong Gaitou's shoulders with both hands and shook her continuously, unable to suppress the anxiety in his heart any longer.

The red veil can not only help Ye Jie meet anyone he wants to see, but also use some secret method to send him to that person in one fell swoop.

Being shaken continuously by Ye Jie, Hong Haitou put her hands on her hips, looked annoyed, turned her head away and deliberately ignored Ye Jie.

This made Ye Jie very helpless. The red veil was like a bride about to get married, lively and agile inside, like a fluttering butterfly. If he offended it, he would definitely be teased. It was the type that would only respond to soft words and not hard ones, so he could only say:
"Since I saved you from being devoured by the Formless Ghost King, please help me this time."

After Ye Jie's request, the woman with the red veil finally turned her face to him.

Ye Jie stretched out his arm and was about to take off the veil that covered his face, but his hand was blocked by it and he could not go any further.

Ye Jie was puzzled, and saw the girl in red veil raised a finger and pointed at his chest.

The location pointed by the red veil was Ye Jie's heart. Ye Jie understood clearly:

"You mean, you want to collect the love thread, right?... After the matter is done, I will give it to you."

Losing love means forgetting the most precious memories, which is also the price for the red veil to take action.

Thinking of the past experiences with Xia Wei, Ye Jie's expression was complicated. Now, the two of them have finally walked on different paths.

As the saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. Forgetting the past may be good for both of them.

The woman in red veil shook her head, as if Ye Jie had misunderstood her, and pointed at Ye Jie's chest again.

"Not love? Then what do you want? You can't want my heart, right?"

Ye Jie was a little mad. Xia Wei had already taken away the main account of the Wushen Temple, and Tianlang was following Xia Wei. If he delayed, who knows what might happen. He had to leave quickly, but he didn't have time to play dumb with the red veil:
"What do you want? Can you give me a definite answer?"

The woman in red veil was also getting anxious, her chest heaving, looking very angry. Without saying anything else to Ye Jie, she immediately reached out and tore off the red cloth covering her head, revealing her face.

Looking at the frail face under the red veil, Ye Jie was somewhat dumbfounded:

"What are you doing? I want to see Xia Wei, not her!"

"Ye Jie? It's you... Did you hear my call and come to save me?"

Su Miao's face was revealed under the red veil. She looked haggard, with lingering fear in her eyes. She was trembling like a frightened bird, completely losing her usual calmness. She soon noticed something was wrong:

"No... This is not the ruins of King Kong City. Why am I here? What kind of witchcraft is this?"

Su Miao was suddenly brought here with a red veil, which frightened her so much that she started to struggle in panic.

"Calm down, this is the Witch God Temple, you are only here temporarily, you are safe now."

Seeing that Su Miao looked strange, Ye Jie hurriedly tried to comfort her. After his repeated comforting, Su Miao finally calmed down.

"You don't look well. What happened? Aren't you exploring the ruins of King Kong City with Fairy Yaoyin? I remember that Fairy Yaoyin is at the fifth level, and there is no equality formation to suppress the ruins of King Kong City. Who dares to attack you?"

Su Miao was listless, her face was pale and bloodless, her lips trembled as she spoke:
"The news about our master's relics has leaked out. We are being hunted by another group of evil immortals. Under normal circumstances, those villains would definitely not be a match for Yao Yin... However, in order to retrieve our master's relics, Yao Yin was injured by the Donglai Ziqi that was guarding there, and his life was in danger. This gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of him."

"What..." Ye Jie took a deep breath, "Aren't you the descendants of Xuannv? Could it be that the title of the descendants of Xuannv is not enough to scare away those enemies?"

Su Miao's face turned pale and she sighed, "It is precisely because we are the descendants of Xuannv that they will not let us go. If they let us leave the ruins alive, what awaits them will be the eternal revenge of Xuannv Sect. This time, I am afraid there is no escape."

Ye Jie's expression changed slightly. It sounded like Su Miao was in a bad situation. Then he heard her say sadly:
"We can't hold on for much longer. The immortal essence in my body has been exhausted. I will die here in less than a cup of tea... I begged the ancestors of all generations, hoping that someone would come to save me. Unexpectedly, I saw you before I died..."

Su Miao gritted her teeth, her eyes showing some grievance, and her forced strength, but also some fragility: "Why...why is it you? I obviously hate you so much, why did I see your appearance before I died? Is this a dream? Or some kind of bad fate?"

Ye Jie remained silent, as if he understood the meaning of the red veil. The red veil pointed at Ye Jie's heart, probably saying that someone was calling him.

Ye Jie was about to say something, but he saw the red cloth covering the face flying over and accurately covering Su Miao's face.

The time has come, Su Miao's breath has disappeared, and the red veil has returned to normal. However, after listening to Su Miao's words, Ye Jie couldn't calm down for a long time, and a layer of haze covered his heart.

Seeing this, the red veil took out a piece of red cloth. Before Ye Jie could figure out what it was going to do, it covered Ye Jie's face with the red cloth.

"What is this doing?"

Ye Jie was a little troubled, but he did not sense any malice from the red veil, so he simply stayed where he was and waited to see what tricks it was playing.

After covering the room with the red cloth, Ye Jie's vision was blocked. It was pitch black in front of him and he could not see the outside world at all.

"Well...I can't see your movements anyway, so you don't have to answer."

Ye Jie was quite helpless. He was very concerned about Xia Wei who had gone away, so he quickly spoke:
"I want to see Xia Wei. You helped me see her last time. Did you forget? You'd better help me see her as soon as possible. I'm very worried about her current situation."

"I don't know what she is thinking... Why does she want to be the head of the Book of Life and Death? Is she going to make a wish to the Lord of the Demon Palace? She can't possibly want to be the Lord of the Yama Palace... With her qualifications, she should be a celestial being, so how can she be interested in the position of Yama..."

"Did you hear what I said? What should I do now?" Under the cover of the red cloth, Ye Jie talked to himself, but after a while, he realized something was wrong. The only voice that could be heard in the darkness was Ye Jie's own echo. The red veil did nothing except covering him with the red cloth, as if she had disappeared.

"Wait a minute... You're not going to cover me with the red cloth and leave me here alone, are you?"

The corner of Ye Jie's eye twitched. With the Red Veil's playful nature, it was definitely capable of doing such a thing.

Being teased is a small matter, but if it delays the time to catch up with Xia Wei, that would be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Ye Jie did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly took off the red cloth covering his head. However, the next moment, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

In the desolate twilight, Ye Jie was in the ruins.

The ruined city wall in the distance is like the broken spine of a giant, and the mottled stones are piled up layer by layer like a sleeping beast, lying on the desolate land.

In the sky, the glass-colored glow and the pure purple light are intertwined. If you look closely, you can even see the rainbow when the sudden rain has just stopped, shining brightly like a fairyland.

Looking around, is there any sign of the Witch God Temple here?

Ye Jie opened his mouth wide. He could never have imagined that just by lifting the red cloth covering his face, he appeared in a completely unfamiliar place. He didn't even notice anything unusual.

"Ye Jie...why are you here?"

The call from behind interrupted Ye Jie's astonishment. Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw Su Miao with a sad face, and Yao Yin lying on the ground seriously injured beside her.

Seeing Su Miao, Ye Jie took a breath of cold air, and an unbelievable thought flashed through his mind:
"So, I came to the ruins of King Kong Castle? This..."

Thinking of the witchcraft on the red veil, Ye Jie smiled bitterly.

The red veil did help him, but it was a backfire and sent him to the ruins of King Kong City, thousands of miles away from Xia Wei, which was completely different from his original destination. Now it was too late for him to chase Xia Wei.

But in Su Miao's eyes, this was not the case.

Seeing Ye Jie suddenly appearing across thousands of miles, Su Miao trembled all over, her eyes filled with tears of surviving a calamity.

At first, there was a moment of bewilderment, followed by a feeling of relief. Su Miao covered her chest tightly and said in a trembling voice: "Ye Jie, did you...did you hear my call? I knew that everything that happened just now was not a dream..."

Ye Jie put away his bitter smile. Since he was already here, it seemed that this was the only way. He said casually, "I didn't expect that Fairy Miao Rou would have such an embarrassing side. I'm here to save you."

Su Miao's delicate body trembled. She thought she was in a deadly situation and there was no way she could escape this time. But at the critical moment, she had a turn for the better. She was saved by Ye Jie, the person she hated the most. She looked at Ye Jie, as if she wanted to engrave his face into the deepest part of her heart.

In the distance, several evil immortals slowly emerged, with hideous smiles on their faces, as if they had seen the moment when they would kill the descendant of Xuannv, seize the greatest treasure of the immortal sect, and obtain a great opportunity.

Ye Jie's face was calm. If he couldn't beat Tianlang, could he beat this group of inferior evil immortals? Their strength was not as good as Su Miao's, and they just relied on their large numbers to show off their power.

Ye Jie took out seven stitched pages, and the contents on them made his eyes light up.

[Bookkeeping of life and death:]

[In the winter of the 639th year of the Moro calendar, Shura Jie killed the master of the Wushen Temple.]

【Xura Jie gained 726 million Yin De.】

Killing the Formless Ghost King brought a rich harvest of 700 million Yin De. Even Ye Jie couldn't help but smile when he saw this rich Yin De.

It's a pity that the main account of the Witch God Temple was taken away by Xia Wei, otherwise Ye Jie would be able to use this opportunity to bring the Dragon Transformation to a whole new level.

"Wait here for a moment. I will go and deal with those evil immortals."

Ye Jie spoke slowly, and then under Su Miao's expectant eyes, he transformed into a dragon and faced the enemies in the sky alone.

The divine dragon appeared in the world. Without the suppression of the Equality Formation, Ye Jie felt the freedom and unrestrainedness for the first time. The power enough to tear the sky apart filled his dragon body. His eyes were filled with great fighting spirit. He was determined to teach those evil immortals who took advantage of the chaos to attack him a lesson.

Corresponding to the violent dragon roar was the tragic wailing of many evil immortals. They could never have imagined that Su Miao and the other two, who had been forced into a desperate situation by them, could actually find a dragon to help them. In just a moment, they were killed to pieces.

The domineering power displayed by the dragon made the seriously injured Yao Yin cough and wake up from his coma.

Seeing this, Su Miao held her hand and comforted her repeatedly: "Sister Yaoyin, don't worry, Palace Master Ye is here, he will help us deal with those enemies... We are safe now."

In less than a cup of tea's time, the evil fairies were either dead or escaped. Apart from the wailing and screaming that filled the entire place, no other sound could be heard.

Seeing that the enemy was no match for him, after the battle ended, Ye Jie dispelled the Dragon Transformation and returned to Su Miao's side.

"Palace Master Ye... this time it's all thanks to you..."

Seeing Ye Jie coming, Yao Yin, despite his serious injuries, thanked him respectfully.

In response, Ye Jie just waved his hand and said, "It's just a piece of cake. I'm very surprised. These evil immortals are not very strong. They are at most in the early stage of the third transformation. How can they force you to such a point?"

Yao Yin shook his head and sighed, "To be honest, it's all my fault for being too arrogant. I wanted to retrieve the master's relics as soon as possible, but I was severely injured by the Eastern Purple Qi that was guarding the relics, and I almost lost my life. I don't know where those evil immortals got the news that we were looking for a first-grade artifact, and they risked their lives to snatch this opportunity, and you saw the result."

Ye Jie nodded and looked at Su Miao with a confused look: "Fairy Miaorou, I remember that I modified your Guanghan Sword Art to the Wanhua level. How come you, who mastered such a sword art, still can't beat these evil fairies?"

It would have been fine if Ye Jie didn't mention it. As soon as Su Miao mentioned it, she became furious:

"It's all your fault! You modified my Guanghan Sword Art to be too powerful. I only used a few moves before the immortal energy in my body was completely exhausted. I had no strength to fight anymore. In my opinion, this is all your fault."

Being accused by Su Miao without reason, Ye Jie felt helpless. Even Yao Yin couldn't stand it anymore and kept saying, "How can you blame Palace Master Ye? It's obviously because you are unskilled and made random moves, which is why you used up all your immortal energy."

Seeing that she failed to pass the blame, Su Miao stuck out her tongue and looked at Ye Jie deeply. The accusations and disgust in the past disappeared quietly at some point. In the depths of her bright eyes, there was only the most sincere gratitude. She said softly: "Although it was you who harmed me, I am still very grateful that you came to save me... If it weren't for you, I'm afraid that Yao Yin and I would..."

Seeing that Su Miao looked serious and didn't seem to be joking, Ye Jie also returned her greeting respectfully. It was very rare to hear a word without sarcasm from her mouth.
