Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Time has blurred many past events and obliterated many secrets.

Thousands of years ago, it was indeed Xuantian Pavilion that was responsible for sealing the Demon Emperor of the Heart of the Vast Sea. However, the Ji family had made another arrangement, which was to tamper with the Tianyou Grass that sealed the Demon Emperor's soul. Only the blood power of the Ji family could release the final confinement of the Tianyou Grass.

This is the fundamental reason why Demon Emperor Ye Ying and Tian You Ye Ying were looking for Shen Yichen. Of course, it was also one of the reasons why Xuan Tian Cult wanted to kill Shen Yichen. So, it can be said that Demon Emperor Ye Ying had been deceiving Shen Yichen from beginning to end. Actually, it cannot be said to be deceiving, because Demon Emperor Ye Ying and Tian You Ye Ying did not detect the blood power of the Ji family in Shen Yichen's body.

The Demon Emperor chose Ban-Faced Ling'er not only because of the Half-Faced Demon Emperor's Holy Bone, but also to break the Ji family's confinement on the Tianyou Grass.

As far as breaking the Ji family's confinement is concerned, the Demon Emperor and Tianyoucao have reached a consensus and tacit understanding. Only when the Ji family's confinement is completely eliminated and the seal of Haohai is lifted, can Tianyoucao and the Demon Emperor be completely free.

However, there is one thing that the Demon Emperor did not lie to Shen Yichen, that is, Shen Yichen destroyed Ling'er's Xuanyin body, and he was really saving Ling'er, and he could also break the confinement of the Ji family. Of course, it was not the power of blood, but Shen Yichen's Xuanyang essence!

Although the Demon Emperor could not guess why the Ji family's blood power could not be detected in Shen Yichen's body, it was absolutely impossible to hide or eliminate Shen Yichen's Xuan Yang Essence.

The Demon Emperor certainly didn't know that Xuantian Pavilion was monitoring the Ji family's bloodline power, and what about Xuantian Pavilion? Monitoring the Ji family's bloodline power was not only for the seals in various parts of the world, but also for the trace of the Emperor Stone.

The blood power of the lords and young masters of the Ji family throughout the generations can sense abnormalities in the Emperor Stone. Xuantian Pavilion was afraid that the Ji family would find out that Xuantian Pavilion was secretly using the Emperor Stone to destroy the Emperor Tree, so a thousand years ago, there was an agreement that the lords and young masters of the Ji family could not leave Zhongzhou!

As for the latter point, only a handful of people in the world know about it. Today's Xuantian Sect has inherited most of the inheritance after the fall of Xuantian Pavilion, but Xuantian Sect really does not know that Xuantian Pavilion was secretly destroying the Ji family's Emperor Tree a thousand years ago.

In Jianying Holy City, the Demon Emperor miscalculated and was careless. Although the people around him did not intend to ambush him, it seemed really difficult for the Demon Emperor to leave now.

The Demon King did not respond to Ji Linghai. He was thinking about how to escape quickly. Even if everyone did not work together to deal with him, he could not wait too long, because Shen Yichen in the coffin really could not hold on for too long.

No one around dared to take the initiative to attack the Demon Emperor. Ji Xuanyan in black and Ji Linghai, the old man of the Ji family, could have taken action, but someone else came, and it was from the Xuantian Sect!

Three people came from Xuantian Sect, two masters of Jinglingque, each carrying a sword and a knife, and an old woman in plain clothes, holding a purple bamboo pen. Her face was full of wrinkles, but the graceful charm of her youth could still be seen between her eyebrows.

Ji Linghai, the elder of the Ji family, looked quietly at the old woman in plain clothes. After a long time, his expression changed slightly and he sighed softly:

"After a thousand years, I never thought that someone from Xuantian Pavilion would actually return to the mortal world!"

The old woman in plain clothes turned to look at Ji Linghai, frowned slightly, and asked in a cold voice:

"you know me?"

"A thousand years ago, when I was conquering the demon world with my father, I had the honor of meeting you. Time has passed silently, but it has left too many traces on you!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this! Xuantian Pavilion only existed in legends. No one had ever seen anyone from Xuantian Pavilion in person. No one could imagine that this ordinary old woman in plain clothes could be from Xuantian Pavilion, including Ji Xuanyan in black!

Ji Xuanyan in black looked at the old woman silently, slightly thoughtful, but did not use her internal energy to test her.

The old woman in plain clothes did not respond to Ji Linghai. Instead, she turned to look at Banmian Ling'er and said with a complicated expression:

"Thousands of years have passed, and I never thought that even the Tianyou clan's Yanshi secret technique could not destroy the Demon Emperor's soul!"

What everyone didn't expect was that Banmian Ling'er ignored the old woman in plain clothes and turned to look in the direction of Han Ruoya, smiling and asking:

"Are your predictions accurate? Can I leave safely today?"

It was obvious that Banmian Ling'er was asking about Wan Ning.

Wan Ning hid behind Han Ruoya and shouted loudly:

"Bad girl, let her go, or my brother will explode and die. The light of the Desire Lamp is not something human can match, and it has been burning for hundreds of years. If you are jealous, just follow her in. Anyway, one of the women has to go in. If not, that old woman will do, but it will make my brother suffer a little!"

Wan Ning's body was trembling, trembling with fear, but her words stunned everyone. She not only teased the Ji family, but also played a joke on the people who had just arrived from Xuantian Pavilion.

Han Ruoya felt everyone's gazes, and she felt a little shy. She wanted to push Wan Ning in front of her, but Wan Ning held her tightly from behind and wouldn't let go!

The old woman in plain clothes and Ji Linghai were both investigating Wan Ning and Gu Zhongfu from the Gods and Demons Sect, but the three of them seemed to have found nothing, because there was no aura of a cultivator around Wan Ning. This was really strange!

Ji Xuanyan in black was not angry. She smiled slightly and responded calmly:

"Little girl, I never said I would stop your brother!"

Ji Xuanyan in black had made a statement, but she could tell that the Xuantian Sect and the Shenmo Sect wouldn't let Banmian Ling'er go. Furthermore, Ji Linghai, who was beside her, probably wouldn't let the Demon Emperor take Shen Yichen away, otherwise Ji Linghai wouldn't have shown up! This was probably related to the bloodline power of the Ji family's royal family.

Ji Xuanyan in black wanted to wait and see what would happen, because she was very interested in the people of Xuantian Pavilion and the blood power of the Ji royal family.

"Do it!"

At the command of the old woman in plain clothes, the two masters of Jinglingque drew out a sword and a knife at the same time, and two sword nets, one on the left and one on the right, covered Banmian Ling'er at the same time.

"I'm sorry, even though Xuantian Pavilion hangs high in the sky, it can't change the destiny of the world. You are too late!"

Banmian Ling'er chuckled, and four beams of light rose simultaneously from the four directions of the east, south, west and north of the building where the coffin was located, shooting straight into the sky and colliding with the two sword nets of Xuantian Sect.

At the same time, the building collapsed, the coffin fell to the ground, and the net of swords collided violently with the four beams of light. After the tremendous force accumulated in the narrow space, a shocking explosion finally occurred.

Smoke and dust rolled, and snow waves were shocking!

After the wind died down and the snow dispersed, a pitch-black hole on the ground suddenly appeared in front of everyone. It was obvious that Banmian Ling'er had escaped with the coffin, and she had escaped right under everyone's noses.

No one dared to chase after them, because no one knew what those four beams of light were. They could actually block the attacks of the two masters of Xuantian Sect. Their power should not be underestimated.

Ji Linghai and the old woman in plain clothes exchanged a glance. They knew it was the attack of the Heavenly Ghost Grass, but they couldn't understand why the Heavenly Ghost Grass would help the Demon Emperor. This was really strange!

However, the two did not chase after them. Firstly, it was too late. Secondly, they did not know what was happening underground. With the Tianyou clan's Yanshi secret technique, even the two of them could have their true essence sucked dry.

The suddenly appearing hole leads to the dark city in the desert, but not directly, but to another dark hole.

This was the escape route that Tianyoucao left for itself after the artifact was launched. Tianyoucao absorbed the true essence of the people in Jianying Holy City and had to be prepared to escape at any time. Therefore, Tianyoucao secretly built several passages in Jianying Holy City that led directly to the underground dark city.

"Thank you for saving me!"

This is the voice of the Demon Emperor.

"If you keep on wasting time, the person in the coffin will really die!"

A ray of light flashed by the Demon Emperor Ye Ying, and he opened the coffin lid and put Banmian Ling'er into the coffin, while the Demon Emperor Ye Ying stayed outside the coffin.

Demon Emperor Ye Ying looked at the vast drifting snow and sighed softly:

"Am I doing this right or wrong?"
