Take the Vampire Empress with you when the game launches!

In Qin Yu's view, however, this sword was very dangerous, as it contained the ominous aura of the dead. If he were to be cut by it, his body would likely suffer the curse of the dead.

Wow!

The Undead Lord swung his sword down, unleashing a barrage of ethereal sword energy from all directions. Qin Yu used his "Guardian Sword as Solid as a Mountain" technique to block the attack, diverting the power of the sword energy underground.

boom!

Immediately afterwards, the ground of the Bone Palace shattered, because Qin Yu transferred the force of his attack to the ground.

The Undead Lord paused upon seeing this, realizing that this human's strength was extraordinary.

What he didn't know was Qin Yu's identity, because the Kingdom of the Dead rarely inquired about information from the world of the living, and naturally wouldn't pay much attention to the situation of the living.

To some extent, this also gave Qin Yu an opportunity to achieve a surprise victory.

Flower Sea Land

Because she lost the bet to Qin Yu, Hua Ying could only cultivate in seclusion here. Her strength had indeed improved a lot compared to before, and she no longer needed to rely on trivial tricks to win.

In general, her physical strength has increased significantly, but this improvement is definitely not enough to fight Qin Yu, so she can only continue to cultivate.

"Who?"

Hua Ying suddenly stopped swinging her sword because she realized that someone else was secretly watching her.

After being discovered, the figure who had been secretly observing came out, and Hua Ying, seeing that it was a young girl, no longer harbored much hostility.

"Little sister, are you lost?" Hua Ying sheathed her sword and stepped forward to ask the girl about her situation. She also noticed that the girl was holding an iron sword and wondered if she had come to learn martial arts from a master.

The girl nodded, then shook her head. To be honest, she didn't know if she was lost.

"You don't know? Then do you know your own name?"

Hua Ying continued to ask, and the girl thought for a moment before calmly replying, "Tian Yue..."

"Tianyue? That's a beautiful name. Do you like swords too?"

Tianyue glanced at the sword in her hand, then at the sword at Huaying's waist, and said nothing.

"Would you like to become my disciple? I can consider taking you as my apprentice." Hua Ying thought that if Hei Ye could get such a powerful disciple as Qin Yu, then she could also teach an even more powerful disciple.

"Become a disciple..." Tianyue looked puzzled. Huaying thought for a moment and decided that she should show this girl her power so that she would be willing to become her disciple.

"Come on, let me show you the power of a Sword Saint..."

She led the girl to the flower field where she practiced her sword. The Flower Shadow Sword moved with her shadow, and wherever the sword passed, petals were swept up. These petals surrounded the Flower Shadow and became her weapon. Each petal was enough to tear apart an enemy.

Upon seeing this, Tianyue imitated Huaying's posture and used his sword to pick up the petals of the sea of ​​flowers, making them surround him like Huaying.

"..."

Hua Ying was somewhat surprised by this. This girl learned it after just one look? Could she really be that lucky and have picked up a genius swordsman?

Before Huaying could react, Tianyue continued to swing her sword, directing the petals to fly towards Huaying's petals.

The petals on both sides kept colliding, and Hua Ying suddenly felt that this girl's strength seemed to be unfathomable.

Bang!

Hua Ying forcibly interrupted her attack, and petals fell one after another. At this moment, Tian Yue had already raised her sword and pointed it at Hua Ying. Was she challenging her?

"Alright, I accept your challenge..."

To test just how strong this girl really is, Hanae accepts Amatsuki's challenge, and the battle between the two is about to begin.

As the dead passed, the red inscription on the Undead Lord's sword flashed: "The living shall return to nothingness!"

The attack has locked onto Qin Yu; it's unclear what the effect will be...

Chapter 246 Eternal Contract

The Undead Lord's attack targeted Qin Yu, and under the influence of the "Return of the Living to Nothingness," all life would rapidly wither and die.

In other words, it will accelerate Qin Yu's aging and death.

The fate of the living being returned to nothingness struck Qin Yu, but to the utter bewilderment of the Lord of the Dead, Qin Yu was not affected in any way.

"..."

The lord of the undead's eyes flashed red as he tried to see what secrets this human was hiding.

Then he saw clusters of intensely burning flames.

Bang!

The Undead Lord's pupils exploded, and he painfully covered the emptiness in his eyes. What he had just seen was an extremely powerful flame of life, so powerful that he was completely unable to judge it.

Qin Yu had no idea what had just happened to the Undead Monarch, or why he had even self-destructed.

But this is good, it saves me the trouble of taking action myself.

The Undead Lord's strength was not affected by this; this little thing was completely insignificant to him. What he was curious about was why Qin Yu possessed such a powerful life force.

"Human, you are ultimately beyond my control, and I cannot kill you, but you..."

"...cannot kill me either..."

The fact that the Undead Lord's most powerful skill was ineffective against Qin Yu was quite frustrating for him, but it was true that neither side could defeat the other.

“That’s right, so there’s no need to continue fighting, right?” Qin Yu didn’t want to fight the Undead Lord at all, but Peggy was encouraging him from the side.

After pondering for a moment, the Lich King looked at Peggy and said, "Peggy, if you want to go out, first sign an eternal contract with this human."

Peggy's eyes lit up when she heard that the Lich King had allowed her to leave. "Really?" Peggy hadn't considered the implications of the eternal covenant at all.

"Also, after you decay, you must return to inherit the position of the Lord of the Dead..."

The Undead Lord has always groomed Peggy as his successor. He knows his days are numbered and he is unable to achieve any new breakthroughs, so he pins his hopes on Peggy's growth.

"No problem!" All Peggy could think about now was getting out, getting out, getting out...

Qin Yu, standing to the side, was quite annoyed. Wouldn't the Eternal Contract bind Peggy to him forever? What exactly was this Undead Lord trying to do?

"I'm entrusting Peggy to you. You must take good care of her..." The undead lord spoke to Qin Yu like an old father, entrusting him with the affairs of his daughter.

He had intended to refuse to sign the contract, but the Undead Lord pleaded with him repeatedly and even gave him a gift, so he had no choice but to sign.

Therefore, Peggy and Qin Yu signed an eternal contract, and from now on, Peggy will become Qin Yu's eternal partner.

"This is bad..." Qin Yu never expected that his trip to the Kingdom of the Dead would result in him returning with a ghost princess. Now it would be difficult to explain to the others, especially Little Snow Luna.

"Let's go!!!" Peggy once again took the lead, letting the ghost maids carry her and Qin Yu out of the Land of the Dead.

After watching the two leave, the Lich King returned to his throne of bones.

"The spark of life is brought to the darkest world by those who bring it..."

Even the undead lord, whose fire power resides within Qin Yu, has decided to place Peggy under Qin Yu's control rather than choose the evil god. The future still depends on Qin Yu himself…

Main world

From the realm of the dead to the world of the living, Peggy felt a great sense of relief.

The ghostly maids also looked curiously at this vibrant world, which was completely different from the deathly silence of the land of the dead.

"Where are we?!" Peggy asked Qin Yu, who was being held in the arms of the maids. Qin Yu was about to pretend to be asleep, but Peggy kept moving around.

"The Central Continent..." Qin Yu felt a little embarrassed when he saw where he and Peggy were.

Oh no, this is the outskirts of the Holy City. Peggy will soon be discovered by the Holy City's patrolling angels.

"Run!"

In the blink of an eye, Qin Yu grabbed Peggy and the group of ghost maids and ran in one direction.

If we really alarm the angel legion stationed in the Holy City, we'll be in big trouble. It will be hard to explain ourselves.

"This is... the aura of the dead?"

Sure enough, although Peggy and her companions only stayed there for a short while, they were noticed by the angels. The angels immediately split up, with half going to track the aura and the other half going to report to the Holy See.

In the Holy See

The Pope and his entourage received the angel's report and fell into deep thought.

"The presence of undead has been detected near the Holy Capital. Could it be that an undead force is planning to catch us off guard?"

Others speculated that if this were true, it would be truly terrifying. The undead that could appear and disappear right before their eyes were certainly not ordinary creatures, and leaving them unchecked would only lead to disaster.

"A city-wide search is necessary, along with a search of all surrounding suspicious areas. We must find the hiding place of that ghost..."

After the Pope issued the order, the Holy City began to be unsettled again, and Qin Yu had already returned to the Snowfeather Guild territory with the culprit, Peggy.

"Is this your home? It looks really nice~"

Peggy looked around and saw groups of Star Soldiers watching her warily, while many other creatures were already approaching her.

The people had clearly come to investigate why their lord had brought back an undead.

"My lord, this ghost is..."

Hikari stepped forward and asked, as she had been wary of what outrageous things the ghost might do.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Qin Yu could only reassure them not to be nervous, assuring them that Peggy meant no harm, and then told the others about her background.

This caused the onlookers to disperse, leaving only a few core members of the territory.

"My lord, can she also pass through Little Angel's body?" Angel was very curious about Peggy's abilities.

"Of course, Xiao An, do you want to give it a try?"

"Ok!"

Qin Yu looked at Peggy, knowing he needed her permission. Peggy, holding an umbrella, glanced at Angel, then rushed over and passed right through her.

In the instant she passed through, she seemed to see a terrifying figure, which frightened her so much that she immediately hid behind Qin Yu.

“There’s a monster inside her…” Peggy couldn’t help but whisper in Qin Yu’s ear.

"You saw another Xiao An with red eyes, didn't you?"

Peggy nodded, and Qin Yu comforted her, "That's another Xiao An, she's not hostile."
