Yang Lingqing's experiences over the years had been relatively simple. She had not experienced as many ups and downs as Long Chen. When her life had taken the biggest turn, Long Chen had already been by her side. After receiving the World Emperor's inheritance, she had spent about a year absorbing the inheritance. After that, she had spent the rest of her time digesting the inheritance and consolidating her position as World Emperor.
Then, when she heard that Long Chen had disappeared as an Upper Sage Martial Emperor, she had come over.
In fact, before hearing this news, she had been trying to find out more about Long Chen. With the intelligence of the Shadow Demon Realm, she basically knew everything that Long Chen had done, including what had happened after Long Chen had gone to the Nine-Star Chaos City, and what had happened after he had returned to the Imperial Palace and become one of the three top candidates.
But she still wanted to hear the details from Long Chen.
"Then Master … where did Sister Xuanji go after that?"
Yang Lingqing was most concerned and grateful to this woman who had brought her to the Shadow Demon Realm and had even blinded herself for a period of time because of her.
Long Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know where she went either."
"Oh, I hope nothing happened."
Yang Lingqing heaved a sigh of relief and asked again, "Lingxi went back to the Sword Spirit Imperial Palace. She must have had a hard time being locked up there. Brother, you can't let her down."
Long Chen smiled and said, "Of course. I came to the Three Great Imperial Regions for her."
"What? Didn't you come for me?" Yang Lingqing said unhappily.
"Yes, of course I did." Long Chen smiled sheepishly.
This younger sister who had been born in the same year, month, and day.
Oh no.
Long Qinglan had once said that everything in Baiyang Town was an illusion. In reality, Long Chen had nothing to do with the Yang family. It was all an illusion created by Long Qinglan. In other words, Yang Lingqing was not related to him by blood.
Long Chen didn't care about this. His younger sister was his younger sister. In fact, he had always treated Yang Lingqing the way he treated his own younger sister.
The two of them talked about some trivial things and reminisced about their childhood. Yang Lingqing's emotions fluctuated greatly. She was happy, but also disappointed. It was obvious that she missed home very much. Ten years had passed. Long Chen had returned to Baiyang Town several times in his dreams and environments, but he had never really gone back.
"Brother, do we have a chance to go back?" Yang Lingqing looked at Long Chen eagerly.
"Yes, but I still have something important to do, so I might need to rest for a while."
Yang Lingqing understood very well and said, "Indeed, we can't let Lingxi suffer anymore."
"That's not the only thing …"
In reality, the more important thing was about the City Lord of the Wronged.
That beautiful blue-haired girl was suppressed in the Holy Kingdom by the ninety-nine Golden Demon Subduing Columns. The Golden Demon Subduing Columns were very good at suppressing demons, and could also cover the aura of the City Lord of the Wronged's heart.
"It's okay. I will take you back when the time comes." Long Chen promised.
Not only Yang Lingqing, but Feng Zhilin also had the desire to go back. However, she was more anxious. Perhaps the two of them would not be together. After losing to Long Chen, she trained even harder. In reality, she did not slack off at all.
After catching up with Yang Lingqing for half a day, Long Chen looked at the beautiful snow below, and the dazzling white light. He put away his playful heart and said, "Qing 'er, the people of the Demon World of Shadow asked you to find me. What do you need help with? Don't be afraid of troubling me. If it's within my power, I can do it."
Yang Lingqing knew that Long Chen was such a reliable brother. She didn't have to worry about anything. Even he could see it. Although she didn't want to trouble Long Chen, the sense of responsibility in her heart made her feel like she was being decocted all the time.
"Brother, something big happened in the Demon World of Shadow …" Thinking of this, Yang Lingqing was sad, and her voice choked.
Long Chen hurriedly asked, "Tell me in detail."
Yang Lingqing said, "It started half a month ago. At that time, everything was normal. However, half a month ago, on a mountain in the Snow Wind Demon Area, one of the eight demon areas of the Demon World of Shadow, a strange towering tree suddenly grew out. It looked like a black demon, and there were two fruits on the tree. At first, no one noticed it, but as time went by, the fruits actually emitted a strange black miasma. The miasma spread very fast, and after a few days, it spread to the inhabited area. Now, half of the Snow Wind Demon Area is completely covered in the black miasma. It is dark and lifeless, and you can't even see your fingers in front of you. The most terrible thing is that the miasma causes changes to our human bodies and the bodies of the ferocious beasts …"
Long Chen also realized the horror of this matter.
The demonic tree, the two black fruits, and the miasma that filled half of the Snow Wind Demon Area.
Long Chen was very clear about the size of the Nine Underworlds and the Xuanyin Demon Area. It was definitely not simple for a demonic tree to affect such a large area.
Otherwise, Yang Lingqing wouldn't have used his connections to find the True Martial Emperor Palace.
"Tell me about this change. How can I help you?"
Long Chen saw that Yang Lingqing was depressed, so he comforted her.
Tears welled up in Yang Lingqing's eyes as she stammered, "In the Snow Wind Demonic Territory, eighty million people … eighty million civilians suffered from the disaster because of it … Their bodies underwent a strange transformation. They became like the walking dead, lost their minds, devoured corpses, and killed each other. The most terrifying thing was that there were actually black iron chains growing out of their bones …"
"What?"
Long Chen was absolutely shocked.
To him, this was absolutely terrifying news.
"Yes, a total of eighty million people seemed to have died. Their current state seems to be similar to that of a dead person."
The True Martial Emperor Palace had a total of one hundred million disciples.
Under the influence of the two fruits, eighty million people in the Snow Wind Demon Area had turned into ghosts in the Eternal Hell.
"The Realm Lord seemed to say that they had all become ghosts in the Eternal Hell and that there was no chance of survival. However, as the miasma spread rapidly, the Realm Lord said that if we don't stop it in time, the entire Snow Wind Demon Area will probably be in danger. It might even affect an even larger area …"
Long Chen looked at Yang Lingqing in shock.
"Eighty million people, ghosts … Has the City Lord of the Wrongful Death extended his hand to the Supreme Yin Devil Realm?"
He was extremely shocked.
"Brother …" Yang Lingqing called out to him to calm him down.
Long Chen took a deep breath to clear his head. He said, "Then no matter what, we have to get rid of the Demonic Tree and the strange fruit. The Realm Lord of the Supreme Yin Devil Realm is at least as strong as us three Martial Honorables. Doesn't he have a way to deal with it? If he doesn't, I'm afraid we won't be able to help."
Yang Lingqing said, "The people of the Supreme Yin Devil Realm are doing their best to seal off the Snow Wind Demon Area and evacuate the people. At the same time, they are blocking the people who have turned into ghosts. We can't let them kill and eat. The Realm Lord heard about my relationship with you, so he asked me to visit you … He said he can destroy the two fruits, but the Demonic Tree is surrounded by an evil demonic barrier that even he can't break. The True Martial Emperor Palace is just and honorable, so they must have treasures that can dispel evil. They can break the demonic barrier and help him."
At this point, Yang Lingqing's eyes were bloodshot. She already had feelings for the Supreme Yin Devil Realm. Even if she didn't have feelings for the Demonic Tree, she would still feel sad and blamed herself for the deaths of so many people. After all, she was one of the Realm Lords of the Supreme Yin Devil Realm and controlled the entire Xuanyin Demon Area.
Long Chen could understand her sadness and vulnerability. If he was in her shoes, he would also be worried. After all, these 80 million people were living lives.
"It seems that the Emperor didn't overestimate the City Lord of the Wronged's murderous heart and the disaster he can bring. He hasn't fully resurrected yet, but he has already caused so many deaths. If he were to come back to life, the entire Three Regions and Nine Realms would become hell on earth.
Long Chen didn't dare to imagine that kind of situation.
In his heart, not only did he feel sad for the scene of people being plunged into misery and suffering, but he also felt angry.
"Maybe the World Lord of the Supreme Yin Devil Realm has already predicted that I would obtain the Golden Devil Suppressing Pillar. Maybe, only the Golden Devil Suppressing Pillar can break that so-called devil barrier and save Wan Ming. Seems like I have to go out for a while. However, I still have to discuss this with the Monarch first."
Long Chen thought to himself.
"Brother, is there any way?" Yang Lingqing bit her lip and asked softly.
"If you need to take the risk, I think … sigh … but …"
On one hand, she couldn't bear such a huge disaster. On the other hand, she didn't want Long Chen to be in danger again because of her selfishness. After all, she knew that Long Chen had many things to do.
Long Chen instructed, "I'll send you back to the Evil Dragon Palace first. Wait for a while. I'll report this matter to the Emperor and see what the Emperor decides. Wait for my news. Don't worry, if I can help, I definitely won't back down."
"Mm." Yang Lingqing nodded heavily.
No matter when or how much she grew, Long Chen would always be her most reliable elder brother. This feeling was extremely strong for Yang Lingqing today.
After bringing Yang Lingqing to the Evil Dragon Palace, Long Chen set off. First, he went to see Wenren Xi and told him everything that happened today. Also, only Wenren Xi could bring him back to the 99th floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda.
Wenren Xi placed great importance on this matter, but this matter was so important that he could only let the Emperor decide. Therefore, the two of them went to the 98th floor. Wenren Xi sent Long Chen to the highest floor.
