Duhe River is the largest river in the underworld. The water here is turbid and fast-moving, giving people an inexplicable sense of fear. It seems that if you accidentally fall into the river, you will be skinned alive if you don't die. But that is only for ordinary people.

Long Ao stood by the river, narrowed his eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that Zhe Ling would not help him so easily. It was really not easy to find a small bead at the bottom of such a river.

Long Ao used his divine power to fly up, and used the divine power to cover his body with a protective shield to ensure that he would not be affected by anything at the bottom of the river.

If it was an ordinary river, Zhe Ling could find the bead by himself, but crossing a river was different. No matter how much magic power he used on the river bank, he could not reach the bottom of the river. He could only enter the river with his body and then use magic power.

Long Ao leaned over and rushed into the river at an extremely fast speed, with his eyes closed, and his powerful divine power slowly extended in all directions.

An old woman stood by the river, her unfathomable eyes flashing with a gleam of light, "Long Ao, you are dreaming of letting Feng Wu continue to live. No one can get what I can't get."

The old woman walked away after she finished speaking, and the tip of her tail appeared from the hem of her gray clothes.

Long Ao had almost used up all his divine power when he finally found the trace of the Spirit Gathering Pearl. He quickly flew over and stuck his hand into the mud at an extremely fast speed. When his hand came out of the mud again, there was a emerald green pearl between his fingertips.

Zhe Ling was still drinking peach blossom wine leisurely as usual. When he heard the noise, he raised his eyes slightly and saw Long Ao who looked a little embarrassed.

"Hey, did you find the beads?"

Long Ao raised his hand and threw the small spirit gathering bead to Zhe Ling. "I have done what you asked. Now you can come back with me to treat Feng Wu, right?"

Zhe Ling looked at the spirit gathering bead in his hand, curled his lips and said, "The speed is faster than I expected, but it's a pity that this bead has been at the bottom of the river for too long and has become a dead object."

"I, Zhe Ling, keep my word. Since you have found the Gathering Spirit Pearl, I cannot go back on my word. Let's go now."

Zhe Ling stood in front of the bed, holding an unknown branch in his hand. The light green glow transferred from the branch to Feng Wu's body. As time passed, many beads of sweat appeared on Zhe Ling's forehead.

This was not the first time that Lord Jiuyang had seen Zhe Ling saving people, but why did it feel like this time was a little different from the past?

"Emperor Tian, ​​this Zhe Ling won't cheat us, right? I've seen him save people before and it wasn't so difficult for him to do so."

Long Ao raised his hand to stop Zhe Ling from speaking, his eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "Zhe Ling wouldn't do that. If he wanted to take revenge, he would only do it openly. He's not the kind of sinister villain who would do it behind the scenes."

As soon as Long Ao finished speaking, Zhe Ling withdrew his hand. The originally vibrant branch had dried up and there was no sign of life.

Zhe Ling exhaled and said to Long Ao who had already raised one foot, "Don't touch her yet."

"I discovered some clues when I was treating her just now."

Long Ao's heart was in his throat, and he clenched his hands into fists because of nervousness.

"What clues? Please tell me the truth."

Zhe Ling looked at Jiuyang meaningfully and said bluntly, "You gave Feng Wu the golden elixir, which is supposed to be a life-saving medicine."

"But according to what we just discovered, this golden elixir has been tampered with."

"After taking this tampered golden elixir, at best you will fall into a coma and lose your three souls, at worst your three souls and seven spirits will all be gone."

Jiuyang froze, and said in disbelief, "Impossible! I got this golden elixir directly from the old man."

"Emperor of Heaven, you have to believe me. How could I do such a thing? What is my relationship with you? I would never do such a thing even if I die."

Long Ao patted Jiuyang Shenjun on the shoulder and said, "I believe you. Someone must have known that Fengwu needed to take the golden elixir and secretly did something."

Jiuyang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Long Ao didn't suspect him, it would be fine. Damn it, if he knew who dared to frame him, he would skin him alive.

"Zhe Ling, how is Feng Wu now?"

Zhe Ling looked at Long Ao and Jiu Yang's expectant eyes, pinched her brows and said, "She's fine now, but don't get close to her yet. Her three souls have just entered her body, and she is unstable at the moment. She will wake up naturally after she stabilizes."

"Puff" suddenly, Long Ao spat out a mouthful of blood, and leaned on Jiuyang behind him with a painful look on his face.

"Emperor of Heaven!" Jiuyang exclaimed, and quickly looked at Zhe Ling and said, "Go and see what happened to the Emperor of Heaven!"

Zhe Ling's mouth twitched fiercely. What's going on with these two? That one hasn't recovered yet, and this one has a problem again.

However, no matter how unhappy Zhe Ling was, he couldn't just stand by and watch.

After some investigation by Zhe Ling, he found out the problem: "He was attacked by backlash. The degree of this backlash..."

Jiuyang was worried. Could it be that the seal on the Demon-Fixing Bell had been lifted again?

Jiuyang became serious, looked at Zhe Ling solemnly and said, "I know you are an upright person. To be honest, the Devil-Fixing Bell was stolen. If the Emperor of Heaven was really attacked, then the seal on the Devil-Fixing Bell has been lifted again."

Zhe Ling straightened his back upon hearing this. "Are you serious? Is this the Devil-Fixing Bell that controls all the sealed evildoers in the three realms?"

Jiuyang Divine Lord nodded and said, "Yes, the Dingmo Bell was sealed with three seals by the Emperor of Heaven and Emperor Fengwu. The reason why Emperor Fengwu became what he is now is because one of the seals on the Dingmo Bell was lifted a few days ago."

Zhe Ling pursed her lips, stretched out her hand, used her own dark power, and began to treat Long Ao.

This was the first time Jiuyang saw Zhe Ling use the power of the underworld to save people. In the past, a medium was needed, just like the tree branch that saved Feng Wu before.

Demon Realm

Cang Xun looked at the Demon-Fixing Bell excitedly again and again. After a moment, he raised his head and laughed, "Hahaha, that's all, that's all."

The two men in black knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Congratulations, Master, you are one step closer to your goal."

Cang Xun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, you two did a good job. As long as Long Ao and Feng Wu can't stop the Devil Bell from lifting the seal, the day when I regain my freedom will not be far away."

Cang Xun gently stroked the Demon-Fixing Bell that was emitting a faint black light, like a treasure. "Long Ao, Feng Wu, didn't you seal me? I will make you pay the price. I will avenge being trapped for ten thousand years."

Zhe Ling used up all his spiritual power to save Long Ao. It would take him at least ten days or half a month to recover his spiritual power.

"Find me a place to rest. It's too tiring to save people without a medium."

Jiuyang nodded, handed Zhe Ling a cup of spiritual water and said, "Don't worry, there are many empty houses in Zhengyang Palace, you can stay as long as you want."

"How is the Emperor?"

Zhe Ling smelled the spiritual water full of spiritual energy, drank it in one breath, and sighed, "You are really worthy of being Jiuyang. I have heard that the spiritual water from Jiuyang is a good thing. After tasting it today, it is indeed extraordinary."

"Long Ao is fine, he will wake up soon."
