Chapter 1167: Devil Ling Yun
"What exactly happened to him? Why is he furious now? Did something happen to Xiao Xiao?" Zhou Yu wondered to herself, but she could no longer see the black ball because darkness had filled the place, which caused her to shiver uncontrollably as Ling Yun's killing intent merged with it. "There are so many cultivators down there, and they should be able to protect her from harm, but the situation has become like this now."
To Zhou Yu's surprise, Huang Lingzhu suddenly appeared there. "Xiao Xiao is still alive, but Feng Bing'er is dead."
"What?" Zhou Yu shouted loudly as she jumped to her feet. "How could Feng Bing'er die? Who killed her?"
"Feng Tian killed Feng Bing'er." Huang Lingzhu's answer shocked Zhou Yu. "They should both be dead, but I've reversed their time and restored their bodies, and they've entered their rebirth process. The phoenix egg takes several years to hatch, and she will be born again at that time."
"Unfortunately, it won't be the same, especially since Feng Bing'er will be born as a new individual." Zhou Yu replied with a heavy sigh. "No wonder Ling Yun is furious now; he should already know about her death through his partner's mark in her soul."
Huang Lingzhu gave a light nod as she stretched her hand forward. "Time acceleration."
"Hmm?" Zhou Yu sensed the change in the flow of time in that place. "Why are you suddenly helping Ling Yun to speed up his fusion process? You should already be aware that he will commit mass slaughter once he returns, right?"
"The second prophecy has come true, and the third prophecy will also come true sooner or later." Huang Lingzhu released a soft sigh before continuing. "There's nothing we can do to stop it, let alone change it. Moreover, the Chaos never stops moving, and it moves faster and faster instead. Therefore, I deliberately helped Ling Yun now and let the third prophecy come true, and he could leave for the Supreme Realm after he vented his anger."
However, Zhou Yu realized something was wrong with Huang Lingzhu's words. "You deliberately delayed the process of Ling Yun fusing with Long Hun's bone marrow so that the three prophecies would come true, right? If you had helped him from the start, he could have returned to their side much sooner, and he could have prevented Feng Bing'er's death."
"That's right." Huang Lingzhu admitted it without hesitation. "All living beings have been corrupted by worldly emotions, and their existence has endangered this universe because they provoked the anger of the Chaos. It is time to cleanse them to repair this universe, and Ling Yun is destined to do it according to the three prophecies."
Zhou Yu immediately shouted. "You have gone mad, Huang Lingzhu!"
"Whatever." Huang Lingzhu immediately disappeared from that place.
"That bitch!" Zhou Yu was truly furious that Huang Lingzhu still had not stopped taking advantage of others, and she was now using Ling Yun to fulfill her crazy ambitions. "For God's sake! She made the situation truly dire! I don't dare imagine the number of living creatures that will die after this!"

A week later, the two women finally arrived at the mysterious realm. Feng Huang immediately stored the Shidai after she and Yue Mengyi descended, but the tower suddenly opened by itself and sucked the two in.
Feng Huang released a soft sigh as she had no way to contact Xiao Xiao and the others. "I think we can only climb up manually."
"Usually, we can't enter this tower after breaking through the three immortal realms, but those immortals deliberately brought us here." Yue Mengyi spoke as she looked at the beasts. "Didn't you mention that they increased the level of the beasts on this floor? Why has the strength of the beasts on this floor returned to the emperor realm?"
Feng Huang could only shake her head; she herself could not understand the intentions of the immortals. However, she then realized something and told Yue Mengyi. "Those devil races should be a few floors above us, and they probably want the two of us to get rid of them, so they're making things easier for us."
"I see." Yue Mengyi nodded in understanding. "In that case, let's catch up with those devil races, and we will wipe them out."
"Let's go!" With their combined strength, the two women only needed a few seconds to wipe out all the beasts on the first floor. Disregarding the item drops, they hurried to the next floor.
In just an hour, Feng Huang and Yue Mengyi had already reached the floor where the devil race was located, shocking Xie Shaoguang, Xie Min, and Xie Yong.
'Shit! Since when did this woman recover? Moreover, how could two cultivators in the three immortal realms enter this tower?' Xie Min and Xie Yong immediately pulled Xie Shaoguang behind them, especially since they were clearly not Feng Huang and Yue Mengyi's opponents.
"Here they are." Yue Mengyi spoke softly as she observed the devils. "Shall we eliminate them now?"
"Let's—" Feng Huang did not continue her words because the tower suddenly shook violently, and she felt an aura that was too terrifying coming from above. 'This is serious, Sister Mengyi! This aura belongs to my son-in-law! His anger has overcome him!'
'Has something happened to your daughter?'
'No.' Feng Huang shook her head and flew straight into the sky. In an instant, all the beasts on the floor were frozen, but she didn't freeze the devil races. As soon as the beast broke into pieces, she immediately flew to the next floor. 'Let's go, Sister Mengyi! We have to reach my son-in-law's location as quickly as possible!'
Yue Mengyi immediately followed Feng Huang as she glanced at the devils. 'Why don't you kill them?'
'My son-in-law is in terrible shape now, and he needs sacrifices to calm his anger. These devil races are quite numerous, so I want to use them as sacrifices.' Yue Mengyi nodded in understanding, and they immediately accelerated their movements.
After the two women vanished, Xie Yong and Xie Min sighed with relief. Xie Shaoguang then asked them. "Do you two recognize those two women? How did they get into this tower with their cultivation in the three immortal realms?"
Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire
"I don't have the answer to your second question, Young Master." Xie Shaoguang frowned at Xie Yong, who immediately continued. "One of those women is clearly Long Tianhuo's wife, and she is a pure ice phoenix. I don't understand why she would let us go, especially since she could kill us. As for the other woman, I can't recognize her identity, but I'm sure she's not human."
"Since Feng Huang is in this tower, we should not continue our journey. We cannot defeat her, and pursuing her will be no different from courting death." Xie Min said to them.
Xie Yong nodded in agreement. "We should surrender and return to our realm as soon as possible. That way, the ancestor can devise new plans against those beasts, especially since Feng Huang's return will disrupt his plans."
Xie Shaoguang found it hard to accept that, especially since they had spent several months trying to kill those beasts. Moreover, their main targets were in the tower, so he wanted to continue their journey, but he was not stupid enough to challenge Feng Huang either. "Let's give up."
"Yeah." Xie Min and Xie Yong nodded in response.
Unfortunately, the tower gave no reaction after they decided to surrender, causing the three to frown. Xie Shaoguang immediately cursed. "Fuck! Those immortals have been giving us trouble for several months, and they now want us to die at Feng Huang's hands! What should we do now?"
"We have no choice but to wait here, especially since we can't go up or back to the first floor. We are not Feng Huang's opponents, but we can't just give up, and we will use all our strength to fight her." Xie Shaoguang clenched his fists because he was already certain that he would die in the tower. "Young master, I know your worry, but we will try our best to save you from that woman. We have contacted your ancestor to lift the limit he placed on us, but he has not replied to us, so we can only wait for a while."
Xie Shaoguang just nodded. 'Ancestor! You have to save us! I don't want to die in this damn tower!'

As the darkness receded, Zhuo Yu immediately stood up, her attention solely focused on the black ball that was slowly disappearing. 'Ling Yun, I hope you can control your anger.'
A while later, Ling Yun appeared in front of Zhou Yu, but the void spirit did not dare to approach him because she sensed something strange about him. She couldn't feel anything from him, be it his presence, emotions, killing intent, or whatever, as if he wasn't in front of her.
Zhou Yu took several steps back as soon as Ling Yun opened his eyes, especially since his blood-red eyes became dark red, and his appearance completely resembled a devil. Even though he didn't say anything or release his killing intent, the void spirit could feel that her death was right in front of him, which was because of his eyes.
Zhou Yu was not the only person frightened by Ling Yun. In Yunlong Zhuzhai, no one dared to approach his clone. Even Meng Xianzi, who was most feared by cultivators in the upper realms, also felt fear towards him.
"Ling Yun."
