Hell Emperor.

Chapter 542 Snake Eyes
Li Fei'e tilted his head, puzzled after reading the records on the stitched page:
"Hmm? Five thousand years? Why can't I change it to four thousand years, but I can change it to five thousand years?"

Ye Jie smiled and told his discovery truthfully: "It took one million Yin De to change thirty to three thousand before, and now it only takes two million Yin De to change three thousand to five thousand. Don't you find that there is a pattern hidden in this?"

Li Fei'e pursed her lips. She was really not good at finding patterns. If the master was here, he should be able to find the problem quickly, right? She had no choice but to ask, "Is it because of the number of modifications? One million for the first time, two million for the second time?"

Ye Jie shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with the number of revisions. The amount of Yin De is only related to the number of revisions."

"What? What does that mean?" Li Fei'e was still confused.

“To change thirty to three thousand, you only need to add one stroke to ten, so you need one million Yin De, and to change three thousand to five thousand, you need to add two strokes to three, so you need two million Yin De.”

Ye Jie spoke slowly, explaining the modification rules: "The amount of Yin De required is determined by the strokes of the characters... Perhaps because of the rank, the power of the Yearly Book cannot freely modify all the records in the Book of Life and Death. Even deletion is not allowed. We can only add strokes to the existing years to turn them into another different text, and finally use the power of the Book of Life and Death to reflect reality."

"I see..." After listening to Ye Jie's explanation, Li Fei'e also understood the problem, but what she was most concerned about was the subsequent modification. "In that case, please help me change it to five thousand years! I wonder what realm I can reach after five thousand years of hard practice..."

At the end, there was some anticipation in her bright eyes.

Ye Jie was also quite curious. He took out the eight-sided stitched page and was about to make some changes when a strong wind blew from behind.

The man was wearing a black robe, hiding himself and lurking in the void until he was within ten steps of Ye Jie. Then he found the right moment and attacked boldly. The dark green dagger in his hand, which was filled with poison, stabbed Ye Jie in the back. Even Ye Jie did not notice it for a while.

"careful!"

Li Fei'e's face changed slightly. Three thousand years of hard training allowed her to leap to the late sixth level. Her realm was even stronger than that of a corpse dragon in its prime, and her reaction was much sharper than Ye Jie's. She immediately discovered the unusual movement, and thunder came out in response, sweeping towards the enemy.

"Well……"

With a muffled groan, the man's attack was blocked. He actually endured the pain of being washed by the thunder, leaped to Ye Jie's side, and stabbed him with the dagger.

Ye Jie had a stern look on his face. He could sense a deadly murderous intent from the dark green dagger. He wondered how fierce the snake venom was that tempered it. If one was stabbed by the dagger, even if it only pierced the skin, the person would be doomed.

With the magic scissors in hand, Ye Jie immediately met the attack. As the golden scissors collided with the dagger, the entire dagger broke into two and shattered, and the offensive force was also slowed down.

Before Ye Jie could breathe a sigh of relief, the man did not retreat, but instead stepped forward and collided with Ye Jie, knocking Ye Jie back several steps. The man also retreated due to the recoil of the collision and steadied his feet in the distance.

The black robe fell off, revealing the person's true face. Each strand of her hair was tied into a tiny knot, hanging down from the side of her face like poisonous snakes. She was hunched over, short in stature, and her eyes were alert with a hint of resentment.

"It's her... the great thief Snake Eyes!"

Li Fei'e took a deep breath and immediately recognized the man's identity. Unexpectedly, Snake Eyes had been hiding here all the time and never showed up even after the corpse dragon died. Instead, he took advantage of the two people's let down their guard and launched a fatal attack from the dark.

"She is Snake Eyes?"

Ye Jie was slightly stunned, his eyes fell on the familiar object held in Snake Eyes' left hand, and his expression changed drastically.

Ye Jie reached into his arms, but found nothing. His face turned pale. Snake Eyes rushed over and took away his most important thing, the Eight-Sided Suture Page, without him noticing.

The thief in the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes was finally found, but the situation took a turn for the worse. As soon as they met, Snake Eyes showed his strength, which gave Ye Jie a good lesson.

The eight-sided stitched pages that gathered the power of the main account could be said to be the source of Ye Jie's power along the way. If it fell into the hands of others, not only would it be difficult to improve in the future, the consequences could be disastrous!
"Stop her! She stole the Eight-Sided Sewing Page. We can't let her get away!"

There was a hint of urgency in Ye Jie's words. He had to keep Snake Eyes here no matter what.

"You broke into my cave and killed my sacred beast, so this treasure should be your compensation!" Snake Eyes whispered without any emotion in his tone.

Li Fei'e also realized the seriousness of the problem and absolutely could not let this happen. He raised his hand and pointed, and the Gengjin Thunder that killed the corpse dragon roared down, and was about to kill Snake Eyes here!

Snake Eyes had long been aware of the power of Gengjin Thunder, and of course refused to take it head-on. He dived into the ground, dodging the thunder and preparing to escape by using the earth escape technique.

"Oops……"

Ye Jie seemed a little anxious. This earth escape method was another unique skill of the people in the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave. He really had no way to deal with it. When he was in trouble, he saw Li Fei'e changing his tactics again.

Li Fei'e quickly leaned forward and squatted, with his palms pressed against his face, and uttered a powerful and tender cry: "Wu Earth Thunder!"

The earth trembled, causing violent shocks like a landslide. The roar swept in all directions. The earth's thunder spread along the ground, and then evolved into a power that swept across the world, killing all living things underground.

With a muffled groan like in pain, Snake Eyes, who had used the earth escape technique, broke out of the ground. He was in a miserable state, with black smoke coming out of his whole body and some blood hanging from the corners of his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously injured and unable to fight again.

With just this one strike, Li Fei'e severely injured Snake Eyes. Even Ye Jie couldn't help but feel a little surprised at this scene.

After reaping the fruits of three thousand years of hard training, Li Fei'e's strength had truly reached a level that Ye Jie could not understand. Each of his thunder spells contained the power of heaven and earth. Even the thief Snake Eyes, whom Ye Jie was helpless against, was defeated by Li Fei'e with just one move.

After suffering such a severe blow, Snake Eyes half-knelt on the ground, seemingly without her original spirit. Her realm was far inferior to that of the Corpse Dragon, only at the late fifth turn. She was hiding underground and was completely bombarded by the Wu Earth Thunder. It was considered her luck that she could save her life.

Seeing this, Ye Jie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If Snake Eyes really stole the eight-sided stitching pages, things would be terrible. He hurried forward and walked to Snake Eyes who was half-kneeling on the ground. Just as he was about to swing his dragon claws to kill her, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart. The golden stream of light pierced the sky, like a sharp sword cast by a god, piercing down from the sky, containing a brilliant righteous energy, and was about to kill Ye Jie here.

Facing the attack that seemed like a punishment from heaven, Ye Jie's expression suddenly changed. With his level of cultivation, if he did not resist and was hit head-on by the flowing light, the outcome would be either death or disability, which would definitely not be good.

The Divine Dragon Transformation began to work, and Ye Jie imitated the corpse dragon, making his body invisible and letting the light bombardment pass through his body, thus narrowly avoiding it.

The sudden attack disrupted Ye Jie's entire plan. Could it be that Snake Eyes had helpers? But Ye Jie always felt a sense of familiarity with the streamer bombardment that penetrated the sky. That feeling was just like the Tiangang bombardment he had triggered. The two were 80% similar.

At this moment, an invisible shield also protected Snake Eyes, preventing Ye Jie from approaching.

"Who is it...?"

Ye Jie's face darkened and he slowly raised his head, only to see two unique figures hanging in the sky. One of them was wearing black armor and riding a tiger, and the other was wearing a grey robe and holding a banner. Their majestic aura suppressed Ye Jie, making him feel as if he were trapped in a quagmire and his breathing became heavy.

Li Fei'e said vigilantly, "Be careful... Those two people are at the same level as me, both at the late sixth level. They can walk sideways wherever they go in this continent. Who are they? Why do they want to help Snake Eyes?"

Seeing the clothes of the two people, Ye Jie's expression changed slightly: "Could it be that they are... but why are they here?"

The tiger rider held a golden mirror in his hand. The previous stream of light was stimulated by the mirror. The power in it made Ye Jie very afraid. He saw that man's eyes were wide open, staring at Ye Jie, and he shouted:
“That aura… Yes, you are the villain that Tianzun mentioned! It was you who stole Tianzun’s magic weapon and even tried to erase the mark Tianzun left on the magic weapon. Why don’t you surrender now!”

Ye Jie's face changed slightly, as if he realized what had happened. He didn't expect that he was just trying to use the Book of Life and Death to modify the sacrificial mark left by Tianzun in the magic weapon, but Tianzun could see it and immediately sent out a divine general to retrieve it. It seems that things are in trouble this time.

Ye Jie hurriedly explained: "This is all a misunderstanding, I..."

Before Ye Jie could finish his words, Snake Eyes, who was covered by the shield, suddenly burst into tears, interrupting Ye Jie's explanation with his crying, and said while crying:

"Thank you for saving me, God. This man is the notorious thief Snake Eyes! He stole my treasure. If God hadn't arrived in time, I would not only lose my innocence, but also be brutally killed by him..."

Ye Jie cried out that he was wronged. Why was Snake Eyes trying to turn the tables? It was clearly her who stole all those treasures, but now she was putting the blame on him. It was really unreasonable for him to argue.

When the Black Armor God General heard this, he became angry: "Don't be afraid, with us here, he will not be able to hurt you at all! I have heard that Snake Eyes has done many evil things. Many sects have had their treasures stolen by him, and have never recovered since then. Today, I, the Jiayin God General, will enforce justice on behalf of heaven and kill him here!"

Li Fei'e was also anxious when he heard this. He didn't expect that Snake Eyes's few words would cause such a big misunderstanding among the gods. He was about to reveal his identity and use his title as the descendant of Xuan Nu as a guarantee to clear up the misunderstanding, but he heard Snake Eyes say again:

"I, Li Fei'e, will never forget the favor the God General has shown me today. I am the 170th generation descendant of Xuan Nu. When I am out of danger and return to the sect, I will definitely speak a few good words for the God General in front of the ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Jiayin God General laughed and said, "So he is the descendant of Xuannu. No wonder Snake Eyes and his accomplices targeted him. It seems that we really came to the right place this time!"

Being able to have the descendant of Xuannv speak well of her in front of the ancestors of the Xuannv sect is a rare good thing even for a god general in the late sixth stage. Coupled with the good fortune today, he will not have to worry about his career in heaven or the resources for cultivation in the future.

Li Fei'e's face flushed. She didn't expect Snake Eyes to be so shameless as to impersonate her. She quickly said, "Wait a minute, she has been lying. I am the real descendant of Xuannv!"

Li Fei'e's explanation was only met with a disdainful look from the Jiayin Divine General: "You have reached the late stage of the sixth transformation, but you can't even lie in a smart way. Do you think I will believe you? You are a bunch of thieves who stole the magic weapon of the Heavenly Venerable. Let me execute you on the spot!"

After saying that, General Jiayin stopped talking nonsense, stretched out his hand, and the Liuhe Treasure Mirror in his hand shone brightly, condensing a fierce Tiangang bombardment from it, and then fell on Li Fei'e's head.

Li Fei'e was not afraid at all. As they were both in the late sixth stage, she was not afraid of the divine general's moves. If there were not two divine generals, she would really like to try her luck with them.

"Yi Mu Crazy Thunder!"

Li Fei'e stretched out her hand and pointed. A dark green lightning burst out from her fingertips, cutting a faint light in the air, like a giant python rising up, colliding head-on with the Tiangang bombardment descending from the magic mirror. For a moment, they were evenly matched.

Seeing the duel between Jiayin God General and Li Fei'e, the gray-robed Dingchou God General holding a banner beside him could not help but frown and exclaimed:
"Yi Mu Wild Thunder? I remember that wasn't one of the moves in the Five Thunders Orthodox Method? If you want to practice it, you need a unique qualification. The people of the Xuannv Sect do have an extraordinary understanding of the way of thunder punishment. Could it be that what she said is true? Is she the descendant of Xuannv?"

The offensive was frustrated, and General Jiayin looked a little embarrassed. He scolded: "What are you hesitating about? Why are you not moving for a long time? Are you disregarding the order of the Heavenly Lord?"

Ding Chou shook his head: "There is something fishy going on. It may not be that simple. The great thief Snake Eyes may be someone else."

"Strange? What's strange? Isn't it obvious?"

General Jiayin disagreed and his eyes fell on Ye Jie below.

After sensing the danger, Ye Jie also activated the Tiangang Xuanjia. The golden dragon-patterned armor wrapped his body, and the five balls of light behind him were so conspicuous.

Naturally, the Jiayin God General also saw it, and secretly gritted his teeth: "Did you see it? That person actually used the power of the Liuhe Treasure Mirror to imitate the God General and condense the Tiangang Mysterious Armor. This is a serious crime! And he still says he is not the great thief Snake Eyes? Those Liuhe Treasure Mirrors must have been stolen by him!"

Seeing this, although General Ding Chou was doubtful, she could only believe it for the time being. She had indeed heard General Jiazi and General Ding Mao say that their Liuhe mirrors had been stolen. Since that person could use the Liuhe mirror to condense the Tiangang Xuanjia, it seemed that he was the one who stole the mirrors. Moreover, he stole not just two, but five. There was no way to explain it now.

General Ding Chou slowly raised his flag, and suddenly a cold wind blew up, and endless evil power whistled past like the north wind. Even Ye Jie was secretly frightened by the momentum that was rolled up.
