Chapter 1423: Disturbance

Reneedol softly stated: “Fei Yue, I will give you two choices, immediately pledge your allegiance to me, or immediately get married to a Wraith Lord”

Fei Yue was speechless.

Everyone was speechless.

Who had the courage to reject the words of the Grand Empress of the Pantheon?

However, as Fei Yue had given [Longing] to Gu Qing Shan, it was impossible for her to help the Grand Empress of the Pantheon no matter how much she wanted to do so.

—–let alone the fact that she didn’t want to.

“You forced my mother to death, and now you want me to serve you?”

Fei Yue questioned.

Expression was still calm, but her body was trembling uncontrollably.

Noticing this Reneedol smiled: “No, the real one who forced your mother to her death was your father——- he was driven by benefits, hoping to hand you to me in exchange for power and authority”

After saying that, Reneedol waved her hand.

A figure descended from above, landing in front of everyone.

Hong Yi Jue.

The previous City Lord of Void City, Fei Yue’s father, was now restrained in the void of s.p.a.ce by an invisible force.

He fearfully looked at Reneedol.

At this point.

Everyone finally understood why Hong Yi Jue’s expression was the way it was during their conversation at Void City.

It turns out that he had the unbeatable Grand Empress of Pantheon behind urging him!

Reneedol’s expression remained the same as she spoke down to Fei Yue: “If you hold an irreconcilable grudge towards him, I can help you kill him to ease the hatred in your heart”

Fei Yue didn’t give an answer.

Hong Yi Jue desperately begged: “Your majesty, I’ve always remained loyal to you, conquering countless worlds in your stead, please have mercy!”

Reneedol didn’t bother to look at him and curtly said: “Fei Yue, I can even grant you complete rule over the entire Wraith realm, as well as the right to kill every wraith who had ever disrespected you”

“As long as you immediately pledge your allegiance to me right now”

Fei Yue appeared confused, then asked: “In truth, I have one thing that I do not understand even now”

“What is that?” Reneedol asked.

“With how powerful you are, you surely have countless methods to completely strip me of my powers” Fei Yue said.

This was truly a confusing matter to her.

After a bit of hesitation, Reneedol gave her a direct answer: “I suppose it doesn’t matter if I told you. Before her death, your mother performed a highly troublesome Fate technique, ensuring that other than yourself, no one would be able to force you to use that ability”

Fei Yue nodded.

She knew this but didn’t know that even Reneedol felt hindered by this Fate technique.

Reneedol continued: “Even if you actively granted this power to someone else, the one who used your Fate ability, [Longing], would surely have a child with you in the future. This is the arrangement of Fate, and I must remain in awe of it!”

“WHAT!?” Fei Yue opened her mouth wide in shock, completely stunned.

Everyone else was also surprised.

However, this fact didn’t matter too much in the grand scheme of things, so everyone was only surprised.

——that was because they didn’t know that Fei Yue had actually given the Fate ability [Longing] to Gu Qing Shan.

Everyone here a.s.sumed that Fei Yue had only given Gu Qing Shan a Fate ability to communicate with them.

The only people who were truly shocked were Fei Yue and Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan was completely flabbergasted.

Fei Yue didn’t turn around at all and sent her voice to everyone: “Just now, she said that she could not violate Fate——- this proves that she also wields the power of Fate, otherwise, she wouldn’t understand the consequences of Fate even better than I do”

She sent her voice to Gu Qing Shan alone: “Don’t worry about the child just yet, I didn’t know about that as well, furthermore, we’re about to die at her hands already”

Gu Qing Shan replied with a curt ‘hm’.

He quickly readjusted his mentality.

It truly was not the time to care about this, the most urgent matter currently was to think of a way to escape from Reneedol!

Fate-type Professionists are the rarest as well as the most terrifying.

——-but then, what is Reneedol’s Fate ability?

Gu Qing Shan silently asked himself and sent his voice: “Crow”

“What?” Crow asked.

Gu Qing Shan said: “Just now, when [Weal in, Woe out] activated, you added something at the end”

Crow replied: “Yeah, I said that ‘I still have a way to distract her’, so I’m trying to wrack my brain on how to do it”

Gu Qing Shan encouraged him: “Do your best, you’ve gotten married so many times, you definitely understand women very well”

“Don’t falsely a.s.sume you can understand women” Crow advised him, then doubtfully continued: “However, this woman is too powerful, I don’t even know what she’s been through, so I have no idea where I should start”

—–what Reneedol has been through?

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then answered him: “She had, for power or something else unknown, killed her lover, then went on to eliminate every hidden threat to herself——- I only know so much”

“Killed her husband? That’s a woman without any sense of security, I’m definitely never going to marry such a woman” Crow commented.

Gu Qing Shan was speechless, then urged him: “Hurry up and come up with something”

At this point, Reneedol spoke again:

“Fei Yue, give me your answer”

Fei Yue did her best to retain her calm, her emerald eyes exuded the last bit of her resolution.

“I refuse to serve you” she declared.

Hearing Fei Yue’s answer, Reneedol’s expression turned frigid.

Immense power radiated from her body, cras.h.i.+ng like a giant wave upon everyone.

Standing there, they felt like they were fighting against the flow of a tsunami, unable to even mount the power to control themselves.

Reneedol coldly snorted, then told her: “I’m going to have you marry to Wraith Lord Karmic Fire, Bai Yuan”

“Don’t even attempt any resistance, or I shall kill every last one of your friends here, then torture you into submission in the cruelest possible way”

Fei Yue’s expression became pale, everyone else also fell into despair.

This was an impossible battle.

Someone suddenly shouted: “Wait!”

Everyone turned back, only to see that it was Crow who was disguised as Fei Yue.

At this point, he was still dressed like a woman.

Observing him, a hint of killing intent appeared on Reneedol as she spoke: “You have an objection?”

Crow hurriedly said: “Milady hates those evil men, all of them are weaklings who dart around milady like detestable flies—— you are also a woman, why would you want to force another woman this way? Must you force milady to marry someone that she doesn’t want to?”

Gu Qing Shan silently praised.

—–if Reneedol truly loved Boss, why did she kill and discard him?

Crow had successfully found a pivotal point.

Reneedol trembled.

While they weren’t sure what she was thinking, her killing intent had indeed faded a bit, deciding against attacking them.

Gu Qing Shan immediately sent his voice to Fei Yue.

Fei Yue was startled, but then told Reneedol: “I won’t refuse to get married, but can’t you at least find me someone that I can tolerate? Why do you have to force me to get married to Karmic Fire Bai Yuan? I’d rather be tortured to death before I get married to him!”

Reneedol looked at Fei Yue with a complicated expression on her face, apparently deep in thought.

“This matter…”

She slowly said this, then abruptly turned resolute: “Isn’t up to you!”

For some reason after declaring this, Reneedol shook her head and turned around to leave.

As she reached the entrance of the palace, she paused and said:

“Fei Yue, the most I will give you is fifteen more minutes to make your decision. I hope that you will be able to grasp your fate well”

After that, the numerous layers of Causality Law barriers reappeared to envelop the palace.

Reneedol’s figure slowly disappeared as she went outside.

As soon as she left, everyone swiftly began to move.

“Fifteen minutes”

“Hurry!”

“Make the reverse warp formation immediately, we’re leaving”

“It will need around ten minutes at least”

“Do everything in your powers, save as much time as we can!”

Fei Yue released a black thread.

The blind nun, the Ominous Demon Tower’s master and everyone else all acted at once, surrounding the thread to create a reverse warp formation.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

Crow’s words seemed to have touched Reneedol.

How strange.

What exactly

did she go through?

“Are you curious how I did it?” Crow asked with a low voice.

“I am, what exactly was she thinking?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“I don’t know either. But I used to know a woman who only got married to me in order to suck all of my powers dry; she believed that women were the perfect creatures and that all men should die” Crow explained.

“It’s a good thing you noticed in time” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“According to what you said as well as my own instincts, I could sense that the Grand Empress of the Pantheon was extremely heartless towards men, and yet she gave Fei Yue a choice, so I purposely said what I did” Crow continued.

Everyone turned back to look at him

Xiao Die sighed: “Truly, only someone who had gotten married 99 times like you would be able to come up with such a solution”

“This is going to work only once; we need to seize our time and flee” Crow shrugged.

A few moments later.

Fei Yue and the blind nun both declared:

“Finished!”

Fei Yue said: “Hurry, the warp formation has been completed, we have to leave immediately, we’ll deal with other issues as they come up!”

The Ominous Demon Tower’s master then said: 「 With so many of us here, warping would cause noticeable continuous fluctuations. Does anyone here have a spatial tool with them? It’s best that only one person warps away while carrying the spatial tool with everyone inside 」

“I do”

Gu Qing Shan took out the Cang Hai Heavenly Ark.

“Xiao Seng! Take them all into the Kunlun world”

“Got it” Zhao Xiao Seng answered.

Flashes of light appeared from the Heavenly Ark and took everyone inside.

The only person left in the palace was the one maintaining the formation, Fei Yue.

As well as Gu Qing Shan.

Their gazes met.

“I’ll leave it all to you” Fei Yue casually said.

“Got it” Gu Qing Shan raised his hand.

A black thread coiled around Gu Qing Shan’s hand while the other end connected to Fei Yue’s thread.

Fei Yue was then also taken in by a flash of light before she disappeared.

Gu Qing Shan held the Cang Hai Heavenly Ark in one hand, while his other hand was lightly placed onto the formation with the black thread attached to it.

The formation gave off a flash of light.

The warp had begun!

Gu Qing Shan felt heaven and earth turning around themselves as he instantly vanished.
