A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

However, even after passing through the teleportation array, the person remained standing in the same spot without making a sound.

Feng Jiutian's expression changed slightly, guessing that there might be a problem with the teleportation array.

She spent a whole day exploring the teleportation array, but there was nothing wrong with its aura. Feng Jiutian had inherited everything Ling Yuan knew, so she naturally knew how to distinguish between a genuine and a fake teleportation array.

The teleportation array is working fine, so why is Fuling Yue...?

As the sparks flew, Feng Jiutian realized it was because of the barrier!

The barrier that Feng Jiutian set up around the three of them blocked the demon's aura detection and naturally also avoided the aura detection of the teleportation array.

The teleportation array could not sense the presence of any of the ten people who had entered the secret realm, so it was unable to teleport them.

Feng Jiutian finally understood why people had to enter the secret realm one by one; it was to strengthen their connection with the teleportation array.

This really put Feng Jiutian in a terrible predicament.

If the barrier is opened, the demon will immediately discover the three of them, and the thing underground will also launch an attack. All three will instantly lose their vital essence and turn into dried corpses. Now there is only one way left—

That is, at the instant the barrier is broken, one of them acts as a fulcrum, quickly shoving the other two away. The fate of the one left behind depends entirely on his luck and strength.

Feng Jiutian lowered his head and remained silent for a while.

Qi Mo seemed to have seen through Feng Jiutian's thoughts. He frowned and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but if he opened his mouth, he would reveal the three of them's location. Qi Mo did not speak, but he used his divine sense to transmit his voice to Feng Jiutian, saying, "Don't be impulsive, think of another way."

Think of ways to?

Feng Jiutian shook his head. There was no other way. Given the current situation, he could only take a gamble. Moreover, Feng Jiutian felt that this method was foolproof and would definitely work!

"Old man, I'm in trouble again. Whether I can survive this time is up to fate."

Feng Jiutian never considered using the other two as leverage. She knew that neither Fuling Yue nor Qi Mo could escape from the demon's clutches. Only with the old man's help did she have a better chance of escaping.

"Hahaha, this old man is still in good health! This demon can devour souls, so I can only pour my power into your body to block it."

"Okay, I understand."

Feng Jiutian's expression changed. He focused his mind, and a chill emanated from his body. He raised his hands and began to circulate his spiritual power. He asked, "Old man, how long can you hold off this demon with your abilities?"

"About a quarter of an hour." Xuanji Zi's voice unconsciously took on a hint of composure as he said, "The time cannot be too long. It is best to finish this quickly. We cannot kill a God-Emperor with our strength. If we can escape, we should escape."

Since Xuanji Zi had said that, Feng Jiutian's heart sank even further.

"get ready!"

Feng Jiutian transmitted his voice to the two of them, saying, "I will remove your barrier in a moment and send you into the teleportation array. Don't struggle!"

Qi Mo looked at Feng Jiutian, his face expressionless, but a hint of disapproval appeared in his eyes, though he couldn't stop Feng Jiutian with his gaze.

Moreover, no matter what Qi Mo said in his telepathic message, Feng Jiutian seemed to ignore it.

Three tiny particles of light appeared in her hand and gently struck the barrier around the three people, easily dissolving it.

Suddenly a black hole appeared, the world went dark, and a fierce wind arose!

Feng Jiutian thought to himself that something was wrong, and quickly raised his hand to strike the two people standing in front of the barrier, pushing them hard with all his might!

"no!"

Qi Mo had only uttered two words when he was startled by Feng Jiutian's bloodshot eyes. She seemed to be filled with nothing but murderous intent, and coldly uttered a single word: "Get lost!"

Then, in the instant Qi Mo was stunned, he was pushed into the barrier. Before Qi Mo was completely inside the barrier, he only saw Feng Jiutian draw a fine snow sword and look up at the black-robed man who had appeared!

It's that demon!

Upon seeing Qi Mo enter the barrier, the man in black roared, "No!"

Another upheaval occurred, and countless vines burst forth from the ground, tearing towards Qi Mo, who had already entered half of the barrier!

A vine had already wrapped around Qi Mo's robe. A flash of cold light appeared, and with a crisp "rip," Qi Mo's robe was cut off by Xi Xue!

As the severed hem of his robe fell away, Feng Jiutian flashed to the front of the barrier, facing the man in black head-on, and said coldly, "Your opponent is me!"

In that instant, Xuanjizi transferred all her power to Feng Jiutian. Her aura surged, and the wind made her robes flutter loudly, making her appear cold and ruthless.

This was the scene I saw before Qi Mo completely disappeared.

The next second, he and Fuling Yue were pushed into the teleportation array by the enormous force. The teleportation array sensed the aura on Qi Mo and Fuling Yue, and after a burst of light, the two were teleported away and returned directly to the secret room where they entered the secret realm.

"Finally out!"

There were already people waiting outside. When they saw a flash of light in front of the teleportation array, they immediately picked up their weapons and stared at the light.

But after the light disappeared, they were all stunned to see Qi Mo and Fu Lingyue. Situ Jie, who was in the lead, said in disbelief, "Why isn't it that woman!"

The masked man who had been watching the farce from above narrowed his eyes and a look of surprise flashed across his face when he saw the two people who had been teleported back. He quickly whispered something to the servant beside him, and the servant hurriedly left.

Then he turned and scrutinized Qi Mo and Fu Lingyue, secretly wondering how anyone could possibly come out...

Could it be that the deity inside is a fake?

The masked man stared at Qi Mo and Fu Lingyue, a barely perceptible darkness hidden in his eyes, though concealed within his wide robe.

Qi Mo suddenly glanced at the masked man, as if a chill had passed over him, sending a shiver down the masked man's spine.

Qi Mo turned and walked away as if he hadn't done anything. He walked quickly, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, as if he was suppressing something.

Feng Jiutian...

They are still in the secret realm, their fate unknown.

Qi Mo had assumed that Feng Jiutian, with her cold-hearted nature, would run away first, but now it seemed that he had underestimated her.

Feng Jiutian will not run away.

Instead of running away, she gave all the opportunities to two complete strangers who were hardly close to each other.

Are Fuling Yue and Feng Jiutian considered companions?

Doesn't count.

Their relationship was more like that of enemies than friends.

Are he and Feng Jiutian considered companions?

Qi Mo didn't know, but from the beginning until he came out of the secret realm, he was only interested in Feng Jiutian's soul. He wanted to know what secrets this soul held.
