In the 99th level of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda, Long Chen told Great Emperor Zhenwu everything that had happened.
Great Emperor Zhenwu had rested for several days after his last appearance.
Because of this, he had to answer Long Chen's question.
"Emperor, do you know what the City Lord of the Wronged is up to?" asked Long Chen.
Great Emperor Zhenwu said helplessly, "I don't know either, but the Lord of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm is not someone who doesn't know what to do. The Golden Demon Imprisonment Column does indeed have the attribute power to break demonic barriers. It is unique, so only you can help them this time. She was right to ask your sister to come."
If he went to the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm, it would probably delay his cultivation.
He didn't know if this matter could be easily resolved. If there were other troubles, it would definitely affect his trip to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. For Long Chen, it was better to cultivate in peace.
"What do you think?" asked Great Emperor Zhenwu.
In the end, it still depended on Long Chen's own choice.
On one hand, it was the battle at the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace that he had been pursuing for a long time. On the other hand, it was the lives of 80 million people. Between his own life and the world's survival, Long Chen had no other choice.
Fortunately, there were still more than four months before the battle at the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. Long Chen was confident that he could rush back early and prepare well.
"I want to go and help as much as I can," said Long Chen decisively.
"Forget it. Once the City Lord of the Wronged appears, no matter how deep the grudges between the Three Regions and Nine Realms are, it is time to help each other. You will go once, but remember, after you arrive, it is best not to open the Divine Kingdom, lest the City Lord of the Wronged feels the aura of his heart."
This was the most dangerous place.
To be honest, it was best for Long Chen to stay away from the City Lord of the Wronged.
Most importantly, they didn't know what the City Lord of the Wronged was doing. Even Great Emperor Zhenwu didn't know.
"Emperor, I know what to do." Long Chen nodded.
If it was just to summon the Golden Demon Imprisonment Column, there was no need to open the God Nation.
"That's good. Think of the big picture and protect your own life. Besides that, I'll let Wenren Xi follow you. With him there, I'll feel much more at ease."
Long Chen was very happy to have the support of Zhenwu Great Emperor.
He already had the Realm Lord of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm, and with Wenren Xi's protection, there shouldn't be any problems.
He thanked Great Emperor Zhenwu. At that moment, Wenren Xi came in. After Great Emperor Zhenwu gave him some instructions, the two of them left and headed in the direction of the Evil Dragon Palace.
"The Emperor told me that no matter what happens, your safety is the most important," Wenren Xi, who looked like a child, said.
Zhenwu Great Emperor thought too highly of him.
It was no longer as simple as reverence for his father.
On the Evil Dragon Palace's Cloud Ascension Platform, Yang Lingqing and a few Realm Monarchs of the Lunar Demonic World were anxiously waiting for news from Long Chen.
When they saw Long Chen and Wenren Xi walking over together, they knew that they weren't as strong as they were. They hurriedly bowed to the two people of the highest rank in the True Martial Emperor Palace.
Long Chen's title as the Sacred Martial Emperor was above that of a Martial Venerable.
"Brother, how is it?" Yang Lingqing asked expectantly.
"Let's go. Senior Wenren Xi and I will follow you back."
To the people of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm, this was a pleasant surprise. Long Chen could break the Demonic Barrier, and Wenren Xi was one of the strongest forces in the True Martial Emperor Palace. It was said that he was as strong as their Realm Lord.
A few Realm Monarchs hurriedly knelt down in excitement.
Long Chen supported them.
From their haggard faces, this disaster was too much for them to bear. One of them was the Realm Monarch of the Snow Wind Demon Region. His hair was white, his face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Please follow me. The Supreme Shadow Demon Realm is truly grateful that the True Martial Emperor Palace is willing to help. If you need anything in the future, the martial artists of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm will not hesitate to go through water and tread on fire. Our Realm Lord is waiting for you at the entrance of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm."
The others in the True Martial Emperor Palace didn't know that this had happened.
Long Chen followed these Realm Monarchs and left the True Martial Emperor Palace quietly.
The day of returning to the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace to fulfill his promise and regain his dignity was getting closer. While Long Chen worked hard for the world, he also hoped that he could rush back in time.
Long Chen didn't have a choice between love and the survival of the world. However, he hoped that fate would be fair to him and let him rush back in time.
Those fellows from the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace should be making their move soon.
Back then, the Lingwu Sword Master said that he would marry Lingxi to Wang Chen and send the invitation to the True Martial Emperor Palace.
Although he missed Lingxi, he could only put it behind him and step onto the battlefield.
City Lord of the Wronged.
This foreign creature brought more and more panic. He was like a terrifying behemoth in the deep sea that was gradually emerging from the water's surface. He stared at the Dragon Sacrificial Continent that was like a livestock farm to him. The Three Regions and Nine Worlds.
Within a few days, Long Chen and the others arrived at the northern part of the True Martial Emperor Domain through the Cosmic Teleportation Array. The sky was covered in ice and snow, and it was peaceful. They advanced at high speed in the snow, heading towards the entrance of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm.
Long Chen recognized this place. When he first entered the Evil Dragon Palace, he had come here to carry out a mission in the Moon Demon Cave. In the blink of an eye, everything had changed.
Yang Lingqing was only at the 1st level of the Nirvana Tribulation Realm. Her speed wasn't fast, so Long Chen carried her.
Because she was worried about the matter of the Great Yin Devil Realm, her face was filled with sorrow. Long Chen knew that she was a tough girl, but in the face of a great disaster, the death of eighty million lives, the impact on her was too great.
"One day, I will avenge them. I won't let them die in vain. Believe me, my good sister."
Long Chen used a firm tone to try to make her feel better.
"Brother …" Yang Lingqing took a deep breath. Her gaze was also firm as she said, "No matter who it is, I will contribute my strength to the battle. Even if I'm not strong, I'm not afraid. If I know who is the mastermind behind the scenes, I won't be polite. Eighty million people are all living beings. They have family and friends, but the miasma has completely changed them. They lost their human forms and devoured their own kind … That scene of suffering …"
She wasn't worrying for nothing.
It was just that the scene was too unbearable for anyone.
Even Long Chen couldn't comfort her.
In fact, whenever he thought of that seemingly amiable white jade skeleton, the hatred and anger in his heart would burn fiercely. If it wasn't for Long Qinglan, he would have definitely died in the skeleton's hands in the future, and he had even helped the skeleton out …
This was a chilling fellow. Compared to Ye Futu, the Slaughter Martial Venerable, he was thousands of times more terrifying.
"I won't let the mastermind go. I swear, I'm sure that someone is behind this," Yang Lingqing said, gritting her teeth.
Long Chen felt sorry for her.
She walked alone, but shouldered responsibility. She was almost like him.
When an entire species was on the brink of extinction, anyone would be angry and filled with hatred.
City Lord of the Wronged.
Long Chen couldn't wait to kill this guy.
Endure.
They walked all the way and finally reached the entrance of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm.
After passing through the entrance, they landed in the sky above the Profound Yin Demon Realm. When they arrived, the experts of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm had already received the news and were waiting for them.
Besides the many World Kings that were still resisting the 80 million ghosts at the edge of the Snow Wind Demon Region, there were dozens of Nirvana Tribulation realm martial artists and above. Besides the World Kings, there were also many second stage Nirvana Tribulation realm martial artists and three or four third stage Nirvana Tribulation realm martial artists. This was nearly the entire strength of the Supreme Yin Demon World.
Of course, there was also a Realm King whose strength was comparable to a Martial Venerable.
The overall strength of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm was relatively weak in the Nine Realms.
Nearly a hundred Nirvana Tribulation Realm martial artists greeted Long Chen and Wenren Xi with the most solemn ceremony.
"We, the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm martial artists, welcome Saint Martial Emperor of True Martial Palace and Martial Venerable Wenren Xi."
They weren't from True Martial Emperor Palace, so they didn't need to kneel. However, even the Realm King bowed deeply to Long Chen and the others.
While Long Chen was busy responding to them, he was also observing the people of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm.
There were a total of four third stage Nirvana Tribulation martial artists. They were all relatively old, and one of them was around the same age as the Hall Master of Cold Martial Hall, a late third stage Nirvana Tribulation martial artist. As for second stage Nirvana Tribulation martial artists and the eight World Emperors, there were less than 20 of them. As for World Kings, there were probably over a hundred of them.
The most eye-catching one was the Realm King of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm.
The so-called world overlord was actually a woman with outstanding charm. Women would always care more about their external appearances. The world overlord of the Supreme Yin Devil Realm maintained the appearance of a 30-year-old woman. She had a voluptuous figure and an enchanting smile, exuding an enchanting charm. However, maybe it was because she cultivated in the heavenly dao, she radiated a gloomy coldness that caused others to be unable to get close to her. No one dared to get within ten meters of her or the cold qi would enter their bodies.
"My name is Ye Guyu. Welcome Saint Martial Emperor and Martial Venerable Wenren Xi."
The Realm King of the Supreme Shadow Demon Realm probably hadn't smiled for many years. At this time, she squeezed out a rare smile and looked gratefully at Long Chen and Wenren Xi. However, there was still a deep sorrow between her brows.
Wenren Xi didn't like to speak, especially to people he wasn't familiar with. The other party welcomed him warmly and Long Chen was also in a hurry. He then spoke, "Many thanks for everyone's kind invitation. The situation is very serious and we don't know much about it. How about we head to the Snow Wind Devil Region while the Realmlord tells us the exact situation?"
Ye Guyu really liked Long Chen's straightforward personality. She quickly said, "I'll lead the way for the two of you, please follow me."
The Sacred Martial Imperial Emperor was indeed different.
