Chapter 1957: Chapter 61: Prelude
“It will take more than a hundred years…”
Chong Hua couldn’t help but furrow his brows, feeling slightly disappointed.
He had no time to wait here idly.
“Is there no way to contact him proactively?”
Yun Qi shook his head:
“Too far, contact is simply impossible.”
The last bit of patience in Chong Hua’s heart vanished.
He frowned and looked at Yun Qi:
“Then forget it… Since it’s worthless, there’s no need for you all to remain. She Ye, kill them all, make them into Divine Corpses or that Thousand Soul Soaking Corpse Water.”
She Ye was delighted at these words, disregarding his earlier disdain for the Vine Grinding Ghost King, smiling ingratiatingly:
“Mountain Lord, just sit back and watch! I’ll make sure we get a vat of premium Corpse Soaking Water!”
Seeing Chong Hua so casually arrange the fate of the Red Sky Palace cultivators, Yun Qi felt a chill in his heart, quickly speaking up:
“You, weren’t you after the Dao Field?”
Chong Hua’s expression was indifferent:
“You all wouldn’t tell me, would you?”
Yun Qi couldn’t bear it anymore, with a hint of resentment, he shouted:
“But you never asked me!”
Chong Hua furrowed his brows, showing a rare trace of confusion:
“I never asked you?”
He looked toward the Vine Grinding Ghost King.
The Vine Grinding Ghost King awkwardly smiled, pointing at those Red Sky Palace cultivators:
“I only used Soul Search on them, but I didn’t question this Yun Qi.”
His gaze shifted slightly, and the other four Ghost Kings quickly shook their heads.
“It seems that’s really the case.”
Chong Hua understood suddenly.
Yun Qi, finally vindicated, shouted angrily:
“I told you, no one ever asked me! But actually, apart from the Palace Master and a few others, I’m the only one here who knows the location of the Dao Field! Yet none of you asked me!”
The faces of the Vine Grinding Ghost King and others immediately turned somewhat awkward.
It was their first time working for the Mountain Lord, and such a big blunder happened…
Chong Hua’s face remained calm:
“So what do you want?”
“I…”
At this moment, Yun Qi hesitated, his gaze sweeping over those imprisoned Red Sky Palace cultivators, looking at the once majestic, now turned to black ash, Red Sky Palace, looking at the distant stars, where there was no sign of the Palace Master and others returning…
After a moment’s hesitation, he finally made up his mind, suddenly unlocking his slightly damaged Dao Domain.
The faces of the Five Ghost Kings changed slightly, about to take action, but saw Chong Hua’s expression remained indifferent, not moving a penny.
Only then did they lower their colors, but soon discovered that they were actually isolated outside.
“What is this Yun Qi… planning?”
The Vine Grinding Ghost King withdrew his smile, squinting his eyes, with the earlier sycophancy gone, replaced instead by a few shades of calmness and contemplation.
Within Yun Qi’s Dao Domain.
Chong Hua casually scanned the surrounding broken Dao Domain, then looked at the seemingly determined Yun Qi in front, speaking nonchalantly:
“So, are you going to pledge allegiance to me as well?”
Yun Qi was about to speak but almost bit his tongue at these words, only managing to calm himself, suppressing his inner fear, and earnestly looking directly at Chong Hua, speaking seriously:
“I know I can’t hide it from you… But, I’m hoping that my entire Red Sky Palace Realm Clan can become part of your realm.”
Chong Hua narrowed his eyes slightly, making no promise, instead asking:
“How can you be sure that I own a domain?”
He had already learned of the Sea of Chaos Realm’s structure from Yun Qi, and now, how could he not see the importance of a domain in this place?
“Just a guess… it seems I guessed right.”
A trace of helpless and sorrowful smile appeared on Yun Qi’s face:
“I have no better choice either, Red Sky Palace is gone, Qiao Wensong died here as well, leaving us with no defense, even if we remain, we can never go back to the old days…”
“As a return, I will not only give you the entire Dao Field but also hand over the treasury accumulated by Red Sky Palace over the years, stored in another location, which includes items to supplement the Primordial Spirit. If I don’t want to divulge the location, even if Vine Grinding Ghost King uses Soul Search, he won’t find it.”
“Moreover… with us around, we can also counterbalance the Five Ghost Kings of Hundred Ghost Mountain. They may seem harmless, but each is more sinister than the last.”
“You can consider this.”
“No need to consider.”
Chong Hua decided much faster than Yun Qi anticipated, making a direct decision almost at the moment Yun Qi finished speaking:
“I agree, now take me to find the Dao Field.”
He urged.
Yun Qi was slightly stunned, hesitated, and asked:
“This…don’t I need to swear an oath or share my Primordial Spirit Essence Blood with you?”
“No need.”
Chong Hua responded without any hesitation.
“Aren’t you afraid I might go back on my word?”
Yun Qi couldn’t help but ask.
Chong Hua glanced at him, his eyes carrying a trace of indifference:
“Then if we meet next time, just kill them all.”
Hearing this, even if Yun Qi had no intention of going back on his word, he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart!
Truly, a Demon Suppressing Lord descended from the heavens, the Taisui God of the Realm Sea!
Summoning the courage, he earnestly looked up at Chong Hua, gazing at his eyes, that pair of mysterious golden Double Pupils, Yun Qi respectfully knelt down:
“Yun Qi, with all souls of Red Sky Palace, pays homage to the Master!”
Raising both hands, a scroll silently appeared in his hands.
Without visible movement, the scroll unfolded directly.
Revealing a Teleportation Array, as the array rotated and opened, through it, one could vaguely see pieces of black Realm Embryos wrapped tightly in Chaos Origin Substance.
“Red Sky Palace Dao Field, totaling forty-seven, with forty-five encompassing Realm Embryos, among which three are about to mature… I humbly invite the Master to review.”
