Battle Through the Heavens: The Soul Emperor's Only Daughter, I Am the Young Master of the Soul

Chapter 71 Return to the Soul Realm, The Black Lotus Palace on the Emperor-Slaying Array

However, given the current situation, since the young master has brought her right before them, they can't stop her even if they want to.

After all, given the young master's temperament, only the clan leader could control her.

Thinking of this, the Great Celestial Venerable sighed slightly, cupped his hands in compromise, and said, "Since the young master says so, we two can't stop him, so we'll make an exception and let them enter the Soul Realm."

"Hehe, here's a little red flower for each of you as a reward!" The girl chuckled, plucked two of her cherished flowers from her hair, and placed them in the hands of the Great Celestial Venerable and Bone Ghost.

The two looked at the big red flower in their hands, momentarily at a loss for words, then shook their heads and smiled helplessly.

"Young Master, the entrance to the Soul Realm is hidden. Please follow us."

Afterwards, the two led Hun Qinghao and the others deeper into the palace.

Looking at the vortex-like passage in front of them, Hun Qinghao pulled Cai Lin and Da Zi inside.

Afterwards, the three Heavenly Venerables bowed slightly to the Great Heavenly Venerable and Bone Nether, saying, "Eldest brother, second brother, we take our leave."

The two nodded, signaling them to hurry up and follow.

……

The space in the Soul Realm was rather dim, with a hint of crimson in the light.

"This is the Soul Realm?" Cai Lin murmured to herself as her gaze swept over the dark surroundings.

Hun Qing turned around and asked, "Are you very disappointed, sister?"

Cai Lin shook her head. "No, although the color is dark, the battle qi contained in the air is extremely pure. It is a cultivation treasure that is hard to come by in the outside world."

Da Zi opened his eyes wide, feeling a sense of wonder at everything in the Soul Realm. Hearing Cai Lin's words, he nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, as soon as I entered, I felt a surge of battle energy flowing into my body, and my cultivation level even loosened up. Growing up in such an environment, no wonder Master is so strong at such a young age!"

Upon hearing this, Hun Qing laughed smugly, "This is just the outer perimeter of the Soul Realm; the central area where I live is truly wonderful!"

"Come, I'll take you to my palace."

The group flew swiftly across the Soul Realm. When the Soul Clan saw Soul Qinghao and the three Celestial Venerables beside her, they were first taken aback, then reacted by letting out a sharp, explosive sound and hurriedly relaying the message.

"Quickly go and tell Prince Hunfeng that the young master has returned..."

"Report to the elders, His Highness the Young Master has returned to the Soul Realm..."

"Inform Sister Xinghe that the young master has returned home..."

"Lord Void, good news! The young master has returned..."

"..."

At the very center of the Soul Realm stands a lotus palace, distinct in style from the other palaces.

From a distance, it looks like a giant, blooming black lotus, standing out starkly from the surrounding traditional palaces that are all too conventional.

The palaces in the Soul Realm are mostly black, solemn and majestic, but this lotus palace, although its surface is also black, is as crystal clear as seven-colored glass inside.

Inside the main hall, several glazed pillars stand tall, with a blooming black lotus platform at the center.

Hun Qinghao sat comfortably on his lotus throne, squinting his eyes, and sighed, "It's still most comfortable in my own territory!"

She then tapped the black ring on her hand. "The Five Elders aren't here. Teacher, come out and see my palace."

Cai Lin stepped onto the shimmering floor that reflected her image, her gaze sweeping over the magnificent palace. She couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Qing'er, why is your palace so different from the others?"

Da Zi, who was holding the glass pillar, and Yao Chen, who had just come out, also cast their gazes at Hun Qinghao.

Hun Qing paused for a moment, then pointed below the lotus platform and said, "Because beneath this is the Emperor-Slaying Formation!"

"Emperor-Slaying Formation!"

All three were greatly surprised.

They had heard Hun Qinghao mention the Emperor-Slaying Formation, a powerful formation that had slain a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) and was the Hun Clan's ultimate trump card. They never expected that this deadly formation was right beneath their feet.

What shocked them even more was that the Soul Clan Chief actually allowed his daughter to live in such a dangerous formation, without fear of anything happening to her.

"Little Qing'er, I have to admire you and your father, you are truly bold!" Yao Chen shook his head and exclaimed in amazement.

"Teacher, you've misunderstood. How could Father let me be in such a dangerous situation?" Hun Qinghao couldn't help but correct him.

She then began to explain: "This is the core of the Emperor-Slaying Formation. There was no palace at first. It was only because I was born in the Emperor-Slaying Formation that my father specially built a palace for me here, which he named Black Lotus Palace."

"The Emperor-Slaying Formation will not harm me; on the contrary, it will increase my cultivation speed within it."

……

Hun Qing released Xiao Zi as well, settled the father and son and Cai Lin in the Black Lotus Palace, and then went out.

Outside a black palace not far from the Black Lotus Palace, Hun Qinghao had just stepped out of the space when she heard a slightly hoarse voice, "Qing'er, where are you going?"

In a short while, a massive black flame appeared from afar in front of Hun Qinghao, transforming into a young man's figure shrouded in black flames. Strange black runes covered his body, and his eyes, like black holes, exuded a terrifying devouring power.

Originally a cold and aloof young man, Void Devouring Flame insisted on imitating the Soul Emperor, waving a folding fan and acting like a refined scholar.

Hun Qing crossed her arms and snorted, "None of your business. I'm back to pay my respects to Father, of course."

Since Hun Qinghao was born, Void Devouring Flame, under the suppression of the World-Destroying Black Flame, has completely given up those petty thoughts and given up. And in this state of giving up, he has become very persistent in terms of seniority.

Then, Void Devouring Flame closed his folding fan, gently tapped Soul Qinghao's head, and laughed, "You have no manners, you should call me Uncle, don't you hear me?"

Hun Qinghao turned her head away, "No!"

"Then when your father comes out of seclusion, I'm going to tell him everything!"

"You!" Hun Qinghao glared at him angrily. "You're shameless! What else can you do besides tattling?"

Seeing her get angry, Void Devouring Flame smiled smugly and shrugged, saying, "Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Who told me to be a great contributor to the Soul Clan, and also your father's good brother!"

"Damn it!" Hun Qing fumed, gritting her teeth as she managed to utter two words, "Second Uncle!"

If she didn't want to listen to her father's nagging, she wouldn't have given in to this guy.

The Void Devouring Flame felt satisfied and patted her head with a smile, "That's more like it, Qing'er is such a good girl!"

"Hmph!" The little girl puffed out her cheeks, looking as angry as a pufferfish.

Void Devouring Flame straightened his expression. "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Your father hasn't come out of seclusion yet, so it's fine for Qing'er to go in and take a look if she wants."

After a pause, Void Devouring Flame glanced at the black ring on Soul Qing's finger, its dark eyes instantly discerning everything.

He sighed softly and said meaningfully, "But your second uncle must remind you, you must hide the person in your ring well, and don't let your father find out."

Upon hearing this, Hun Qinghao's eyes widened suddenly, and she immediately hid her hands behind her back, gripping the ring tightly with her other hand.

Inside the ring, Yao Chen was not surprised. Since he had decided to follow Hun Qing to the Soul Realm, he had already anticipated this situation.

After all, the Soul Realm is full of powerful beings, so there's no reason why they wouldn't be able to detect his soul form.
