The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

"It's nothing, it's very simple. Given the chance, nobody would want to keep being the bad guy." Hearing this, Lu Ye smiled slightly.

Since they are people from the Nine Netherworld, they naturally know that the Nine Netherworld Empress is the only legitimate ruler.

Now there's an opportunity to follow the proper channels; if you have this idea in your mind, how could you not seize it?

Youluo didn't understand all the twists and turns involved.

She just felt that even though she had learned how her master and husband operated the system, the way she used it was different.

“You can arrange for these two people to search for people from the same realm in the Northern Territory,” Lu Ye said. “I think they should be able to identify who comes from the Nine Netherworld.”

With a slight glint in her eyes, Youluo said, "That is indeed a good idea."

"By the way, my lord, what were you doing just now? I sent you a message, I thought you didn't receive it."

Suddenly remembering something, Youluo asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye smiled and said, "I'm cultivating, children shouldn't ask too many questions."

Youluo nodded, a hint of admiration in her eyes. Her master and husband were so diligent in their cultivation that she couldn't compare at all.

"Youluo should go back and cultivate too." After thinking for a moment, Youluo covered herself with the black robe again.

As for cooking rice, I cooked it not long ago.

So Youluo doesn't really want to right now, but she still remembers the feeling of powerlessness she experienced in the last battle.

She didn't want to continue facing this kind of thing. She knew that if she just worked a little harder and wore down more of the restrictions, she could regain more strength and realm.

After saying that, Youluo immediately flew towards the Chaotic City not far away.

Seeing Youluo's unusual behavior, Lu Ye nodded, a rare occurrence for him.

"They seem to have suddenly become much more hardworking, but I wonder how long this enthusiasm will last."

After watching Youluo leave, Lu Ye did not linger there. He had received an urgent message from Youluo and rushed over immediately.

In fact, he is currently making the most of every minute to cultivate.

After looking around at the surrounding scenery and thinking for a moment, Lu Ye did not immediately return to the Floating Cloud Mountains.

Instead, he planned to find a cave nearby and cultivate there.

Otherwise, if something happens to the two people from the Nine Netherworld whom Youluo recently recruited, she'll have to come back to check on them.

A moment later, Lu Ye, who was already quite experienced in finding caves, successfully found a small cave in a mountain range.

……

Floating Cloud Mountain Range.

Jiang Qingge prepared the meal and invited Jiang Lingyue to eat.

"Hey, where's my sister-in-law? Aren't we waiting for him?" Jiang Lingyue looked around and, not finding Lu Ye, asked curiously.

"He said earlier that he had something to do and might not be back immediately, so we didn't need to wait for him," Jiang Qingge explained.

Jiang Lingyue blinked. Had he gone out again?
the other side.

This period of seclusion lasted for about four or five days.

The source crystals that Lu Ye had collected were being consumed at an alarming rate.

Just as Lu Ye was in seclusion, a terrifying insect suddenly appeared in a small town on the edge of the northern border.

This insect was extremely ugly, with several holes on its head, which gave people a sense of unease.

The two heads that emerged seemed to carry an evil aura, and within an hour of their arrival, they devoured many people in the town.

In that instant, the town transformed into a living hell, with many people fleeing in terror. Such momentous news quickly spread towards the North.

Some cultivators wanted to go and slay the demon, but... they were no match for it at all!

Whether they were at the Innate Realm or revered masters, they all became food delivered to their doorstep.

It was only then that people realized that this terrifying two-headed worm was like a demon from hell!

It was simply impossible to resist.

"Where did this monster come from? It's no match for those at the Innate Realm, and two Grandmaster Realm experts have already fallen... Who else can stop it?"

"At this rate, won't our Northern Territory be completely devoured by it? I'm moving. The Northern Territory is too terrifying."

Half a day later, similar discussions were almost ubiquitous in the North.

Many people spoke with a sense of despair and helplessness in their words.

After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, even the usually powerful Innate Realm cultivators couldn't get close to that terrifying monster; their insect bodies simply coiled around them and they were gone.

Even more powerful martial arts masters met the same fate...

When the news reached the City of Chaos, Youluo, who happened to be in the Youluo Gate, jumped up in surprise.

"A two-headed worm is wreaking havoc in the North?!"

This two-headed worm sounds like the Void Nine-Headed Worm that you and your master killed in a valley before!
However, when it was killed, it was still in a state comparable to a Grandmaster in the mortal realm.

This one has already grown into a two-headed... non-Earth Realm Grandmaster is no match for him at all!
Moreover, even a typical Grandmaster of the Earth Realm would probably only be able to protect himself and would not have the ability to kill him.

After thinking it over, Youluo didn't act on her own this time, and directly sent a message to Lu Ye.

The two mortal realm grandmasters who came from the Nine Netherworld were somewhat at a loss.

This place, with its extremely thin source energy, is clearly not a good place.

But not only did they see a living, breathing Grandmaster-level figure, they also heard something else...

There are extremely rare Void Nine-Headed Insects, and they've already grown to two heads, wreaking havoc in the Northern Territory?!
That thing wasn't common even a long time ago, so how could it appear in this small place?
"Alright, you don't need to worry about this. Someone will take care of it when the time comes."

Inside the main hall of the sect, besides the two people from the Nine Netherworld, there were also many elders of the sect. The black-robed Youluo waved her hand, indicating that they did not need to worry.

Then, I glanced at the communication jade tablet...

Okay, there's still no word from them.

At this moment, Lu Ye was still immersed in seclusion. Unbeknownst to him, through his hard work and the amplification of his cultivation level by a hundredfold, his cultivation level was quietly rising towards the fifth level of the Earth Realm.

Finally, half a day later...

Lu Ye opened his eyes. Inside the cave, a gust of wind stirred up all the dust around him.

"call……"

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Lu Ye discovered the communication jade tablet inside his storage ring, faintly emitting light, indicating that someone had sent a message.

After Lu Ye accepted the gift, his expression changed slightly.

"What... a two-headed Void Nine-Headed Worm has actually appeared in the Northern Territory?!"

Having dealt with this thing once, Lu Ye knew that it was indeed quite troublesome.

However, Lu Ye cannot allow it to run rampant in the northern border at present.

[I'll handle it.] (End of Chapter)
