After I stopped trying, a rich woman trained me into a demon emperor.

Chapter 399 Tears in Ice! She begged me to kill her!

Meng Po and Yue Zhao should have nothing in common.

But in that instant, the two shadows in the black ice overlapped.

Zhou Ran's eyes narrowed suddenly.

Meng Po.

Yue Zhao.

Lin Qingxue.

Three people were entangled by the same thread for 30,000 years.

Before he could fully unravel this thread, the old images in his sea of consciousness were swallowed by the black tide, and he fell back into the depths of the River of Oblivion.

Meng Po guards Yue Zhao.

Meng Po let him in so that he could save Yue Zhao.

How can we save it?

Meng Po left no answer.

There was only one sentence on the broken porcelain.

"Those who have passed through the sea of flowers must not turn back."

The Soul-Soothing Pearl only said that it was to save the most important people.

The most important person.

Zhou Ran once thought that person was Meng Po (the goddess of forgetfulness).

He used the Soul-Soothing Pearl to break Meng Po's seal, freeing her from her 30,000-year-long guard.

But now, when this phrase is brought up again, its meaning has changed.

The "most important person" that Meng Po speaks of is never just herself.

Just then, the Yin-Yang communication bone fragment vibrated.

The frequency is very chaotic.

It's not Li Zhiyao.

It's Fatty Wang.

Zhou Ran poured his true essence into it.

As soon as the bone fragment lit up, Fatty Wang's roar burst out.

"Ran-ge!"

Fatty Wang was panting heavily; his voice was hoarse.

"Sister-in-law Qingxue, she..."

The noise from the bone fragments was jarring.

The next sentence pierced Zhou Ran's ears.

"She jumped into that hole in the ground beneath East City herself!"

Zhou Ran's true energy in his palm almost dissipated.

"Stop her!"

Zhou Ran whispered to the bone fragments.

"Where is Li Zhiyao?"

Where is she?

"They're chasing us!"

Wang Pangzi's side was in complete chaos.

"Qingxue was completely out of her mind; her eyes were all bluish-white, and she wouldn't respond to anyone calling her. She went straight down to the collapsed entrance under the Dongcheng Cultural Center!"

"Sister Li tried to pull her back using her authority based on ancient laws, but she couldn't!"

"Something was pulling her down, dragging her along!"

A chill settled in Zhou Ran's eyes.

Underground in the East City.

The clearest location of the Heavenly Corpse's projection in the mortal realm.

The equipment used by the Shenghui Consortium to extract life force from Jiangcheng is buried there.

Lin Qingxue was not seeking death.

Yue Zhao was pulling her.

He severed the lifeblood of this part of the Void Realm, and the body inside the ice then changed course.

The soul carrier was directly pulled back to its original position.

"Listen carefully."

Zhou Ran steadied himself.

"Li Zhiyao used the authority of ancient laws to cover her entire body. Don't pull it off forcefully. First, seal the flow of blood through her meridians."

"Fatty Wang, use your Buddhist power to support her soul, and let the golden light envelop her sea of consciousness. Don't let that thread pull her soul away."

Fatty Wang said urgently:

"As soon as I applied the Buddhist blessing, she screamed in pain!"

"It's better to speak out than to be dragged down."

Zhou Ran asked:

"Is Xiaorou here?"

Several chaotic shouts rang out from within the bone fragments.

Xiao Rou's voice quickly chimed in.

"I am here."

"I used up the natal Gu shell that you gave me before you left."

Zhou Ran speaks very quickly.

"Do you have a second molted natal Gu within you?"

Xiao Rou paused for a moment.

"have."

"Crush it."

Zhou Ran said:

"To infiltrate Li Zhiyao's ancient talismans as a catalyst."

"The Gu Qi recognizes its master and can penetrate into Lin Qingxue's bloodline, pushing back Yue Zhao's pull."

He paused, then asked:

"Is Bai Xuan also on your side?"

Little Judo:

"exist.

Bai Xuan, along with Sister Li and the others, was sent back to the mortal realm by Penglai.

"Let Bai Xuan release the bacterial strain into Lin Qingxue's meridians."

Zhou Ran said:

"It can sense the rules of the virtual realm."

"Yue Zhao pulled her using the rules of the virtual world."

Bai Xuan could find the spot where the thread landed on her.

"Once found, have Li Zhiyao put the authority of the ancient law on it."

Zhou Ran uttered each word slowly and deliberately.

"Li Zhiyao sealed the meridians."

"Wang Pangzi's spirit was entrusted to him."

"Bai Xuanding's landing point."

"Xiao Rou used Gu Qi to break the thread."

"Drag the person back from the cave entrance."

From the other end of the bone fragment, several responses came in succession.

Zhou Ran gripped the bone fragment tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.

He was deep inside the heart of the Heavenly Corpse.

Separated by the realms of Yin and Yang, this was all he could do.

The chaos on the other side of the mortal realm lasted for the duration of an incense stick's burning.

The wind whistled through the bone fragments.

Someone is shouting.

Fatty Wang grunted.

Li Zhiyao murmured.

Lin Qingxue couldn't suppress the pain and let out a short cry before being forcibly held down again.

Finally, Li Zhiyao's voice squeezed in, panting heavily.

"I managed to grab it..."

"Half of her body was already inside the cave entrance, and Fatty Wang had to hold her waist and drag her back."

"Bai Xuan found the thread; it's on the back of her neck."

"I managed to hold it in."

Zhou Ran felt a sense of relief.

"How is she now?"

"She's fainted."

Li Zhiyao's voice was hoarse.

"But the pulling force is still there."

"This won't last long."

"The three of us can only hold out for two more days at most."

Zhou Ran did not respond.

He turned his head and looked at the seven-colored ice stone.

Yue Zhao was still curled up in the ice.

To break the pull on Lin Qingxue, staying in the mortal realm is merely plugging the leak.

The source is here.

Right here in this block of ice.

Zhou Ran walked up to the ice stone.

The Great Wilderness Black Blade was drawn.

As the blade pressed down, the black and gold dragon pattern lit up along the spine of the blade.

Destroy Yue Zhao's body.

If this "backup body" does not exist, the vessel for the split soul loses its meaning of returning to its original place.

The thread that pulls on Lin Qingxue will naturally break.

The tip of the knife is aimed at the ice stone.

But the next moment, a tear seeped out from the ice.

Bluish-white.

Tears slid down the ice wall and dripped onto the word "break" that Zhou Ran had previously carved.

That word "severance" was the mark of the rule that he used to lock Yue Zhao away from absorbing the life force of the mortal world.

After the tears touched it, the lines on the character "断" (duàn, meaning broken) began to loosen.

It was not destroyed by external forces.

It's more like someone inside pushed the door open.

Zhou Ran's eyes suddenly sharpened, and his purple-gold demonic eyes opened fully, probing into the deepest part of the ice stone.

Yue Zhao is still asleep.

But her remaining will awakened.

For the first time in 30,000 years, she took the initiative to respond.

That was not a thought left behind by the Moon Emperor.

It was Yue Zhao herself.

Zhou Ran saw her lips moving.

There was no sound.

He could read every lip movement clearly.

Once.

One more time.

"Don't let my sister..."

"Take my life again."

Zhou Ran's hand holding the knife froze in mid-air.

Like Meng Po, Yue Zhao was a sacrifice on the Moon Emperor's chessboard.

Thirty thousand years ago, the Moon Emperor's physical body shattered, and he needed a blood relative's body to support his will to undergo tribulation.

She chose her own younger sister.

She sealed Yue Zhao into the heart of the Heavenly Corpse, nourishing this functional body with the life force of Blue Star, and then released a fragment of her soul to enter the cycle of reincarnation on Blue Star, accumulating fortune and extending her lifespan, waiting to return to her rightful place.

Yue Zhao never made a choice from beginning to end.

She was sealed away by her own sister for 30,000 years.

Now, she begs Zhou Ran to destroy her.

She deliberately loosened the "break" not because she wanted to continue swallowing life.

She wanted Zhou Ran to settle this matter.

Zhou Ran pressed his Adam's apple.

Meng Po guarded her for 30,000 years.

She begged for death for 30,000 years.

These two women, who were pinned to the chessboard by the Moon Emperor, were never waiting for anyone to bestow divine titles upon them.

They were waiting for someone who could hear them.

Zhou Ran gripped the black knife tightly again.

The knife tip fell.

He didn't stop.
