The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 447 A Shocking Turn of Events: A Sneak Attack from a Love Rival
"I need to head to the training grounds immediately. As for Elder Lan Feng, you can handle that yourself!"

When asked whether they should join forces, Leng Ning Shuang remained noncommittal, while Lian Bu couldn't help but move out of the side hall.

As she approached the palace entrance, she paused, her back turned, and warned, "Also, unless you make any significant discoveries, you'd better stay obediently in the Demon-Slaying Palace and don't disturb my training to improve my strength. Otherwise, you'll be considered to have interfered with the bet, and all matters will be called off!"

"Ah this..."

Upon hearing this, Xing Zhai was completely dumbfounded, his carefully laid plans shattered.

With Xing Zhai's methods of divination, even if Leng Ningshuang hasn't revealed where she chose as her training ground, he will be able to find out through various means that she went to the Land of Nine Infants.

After all, the Nine-Headed Resurrection Grass is one of the three conditions for reviving Feng Yuqing, but it can only be found deep in the Nine-Headed Land, which means that Leng Ningshuang will definitely go there first!

However, Xing Zhai's chosen training ground was a remote and untouched divine space that he had discovered by chance before.

This space, a divine relic, is fraught with dangers yet offers countless opportunities, far surpassing the Nine Infants Land. Naturally, Xing Zhai would not abandon the former and instead choose the latter.

Therefore, he planned to seize all the opportunities as quickly as possible, and then immediately head to the Land of Nine Infants to create a surprise reunion for Leng Ning Shuang, a classic tale of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress.

At that time, Xing Zhai will have Wen Yu in his arms. Even if Leng Ning Shuang is unhappy, she will at most try to make amends afterward and drive him away in shame and anger.

But to everyone's surprise, Leng Ningshuang's words sealed off all the possibilities that Xing Zhai had imagined, and didn't even give him a chance to appear!

"Alright, be careful!"

"Also, the Red Lotus Demonic Sect's headquarters is not a place to stay for long. Remember to bring Brother Xiang along on this journey. If anything happens, he'll handle it. You must not..."

Gazing at the white-skirted figure hurrying past outside the hall, Xing Zhai gave instructions in a rambling voice transmission.

Unexpectedly, before he could even utter the words "showing off," the white-dressed figure, who had been walking faster and faster, seemed to have finally lost patience and leaped into the air, disappearing into the distance like a fleeting glimpse of a beautiful bird.

Brother Xiang, that is, Xiang Qiubai!
Back then, Xing Zhai saw that Xiang Qiubai resolutely followed Leng Ningshuang in betraying the Yuqing Sect, but he was unwillingly forced to join the evil spirit master organization.

Thus, Xing Zhai manipulated things behind the scenes and placed Xiang Qiubai under the jurisdiction of the Red Lotus Demonic Sect.

Firstly, Leng Ningshuang was heartbroken at that time, and only when she met Xiang Qiubai would she force a smile and call him her senior brother. Therefore, Xiang Qiubai would occasionally show his face, which made it convenient for her to have someone to talk to.

Secondly, Xing Zhai admired Xiang Qiubai as a man of principle, and once declared to his face: 'Xiang Qiubai... Brother Xiang, right? This demon respects you as a man of principle, why not become my lackey?'

On the spot, Xiang Qiubai was so angry that he turned and left!

Xing Zhai was puzzled as to why his persuasive recruitment tactics, which he used to employ with great success within the Red Lotus Demonic Sect, were ineffective against Xiang Qiubai. However, the news that his sincere attempt to recruit followers had been met with a dismissive refusal and a safe departure did, in fact, create a considerable reputation for Xiang Qiubai and save him a lot of trouble.

"Pah!" Suddenly, Xing Zhai coughed up a mouthful of thick, bloody phlegm, took some medicine as he walked, turned back to his desk, and sat down cross-legged to heal his wounds.

"Just who is Feng Yuqing, and why is his fate so strange?"

A moment later, Xing Zhai, with his eyes closed, said to himself, "This time, just presenting and maintaining the results of the divination by the Dao and Demon has consumed my accumulated blood and energy and ten years of lifespan!"

Xing Zhai was unaware that, in the unseen world, someone who heard these words breathed a sigh of relief.

……

"Phew, this demonic divination technique is indeed quite limited. For example, it requires the diviner's blood and lifespan, as well as an item closely related to the person being divined!"

Feng Ling gave Xing Zhai a sharp look: "Therefore, as long as I pay close attention in the future, I can avoid being able to deduce his whereabouts!"

As Feng Ling was pondering this, a series of loud "rumbling" sounds suddenly erupted, and the dream world began to collapse. Perhaps the divine power of the Demon Jade had been exhausted to its limit.

Immediately, Feng Ling turned around, intending to follow the spatial power that had descended upon him and leave.

Unexpectedly, a strange change occurred behind them!
Then, a loud "bang" was heard.

The protective aura surrounding Feng Ling was shattered by a single palm strike from Xing Zhai, the Demon Prince who suddenly opened his eyes in this dreamlike space-time!

"Pfft!" Caught off guard, Feng Ling was ambushed and spat out a mouthful of pale golden blood.

Immediately, the entire dream world collapsed completely, and Feng Ling's figure scattered into starlight.

However, in the instant that spacetime collapsed and the figure vanished, Feng Ling clearly saw the phantom Xing Zhai who had attacked him. It twisted strangely a few times and looked at him with a playful expression.

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages and saints offer you a pure land for your souls.
