“Sister, you don’t have any cultivation, so if you actually touched the flame… you will die without a full corpse.”
“…”
Ye Yu felt guilty for a second and then pulled Xuan Yi towards the front hall of the palace to hide.
“Enter the underground palace first.”
“The underground palace can’t stop him, sister.”
“Stop talking nonsense. Listen to me.”
“…”
The aggressive Xuan Yi who was about to enter the Beast Realm was exactly like a 15-16 year old youth right now. He expressionlessly allowed the woman without any cultivation to pull her towards the front hall.
But before leaving the hall, his fingertips under the gown slightly twitched.
A tint of blue flame landed on the ground and then quickly vanished.
A vague aura crept towards Ye Residence’s prince who had fainted.
30 minutes later, a man clad in cyan floated over and stopped in front of the hole of the palace along with his two squads.
One of the leaders quickly moved forward to detect Princess Ye’s breath and then turned around, shaking his head at Xuan Bin.
“She has the last breath left, but her body has been swallowed by the devil flame. No spirit items can save her.”
“… ‘devil flame.’”
Xuan Bin slowly repeated this, but his expression made it seem like he wanted to chew on the words and then spit that out again.
After a while, he suddenly raised his head and laughed.
Above the sky, the gloomy clouds suddenly hovered over the entire devil city and the rumbling thunder turned over within the clouds, making its way down the devil city.
After a while, Xuan Bin finally stopped laughing.
At the same time, his cold gaze suddenly flitted towards the front hall of the palace and where the aura disappeared.
A bloodthirsty light appeared in his eyes, replacing the gentle and tenderness normally seen.
“I’ve searched for the underground palace for so many years…as it turns out, that bastard had opened it already…”
“He actually borrowed the secret palace to recover his cultivation. It seems like I underestimated you… I almost created a future disaster.”
Xuan Bin slowly raised his arm and then placed it down.
His two teams of subordinates had auras no less than the Beast Realm and they suddenly flashed out like lightning, hurrying towards the front hall.
Xuan Bin returned to his gentle smile.
He had his hands behind his back as he glanced in the direction of the front hall, his gaze penetrating through the tiles and the underground palace.
“But it’s ok. At least there’s a woman who actually made you willing to waste all these years of effort and hardwork.”
“So what if you cultivated up to the Beast Realm? Still, you’re just a useless person who cares more about relationships than your future.”
Inside the underground palace.
“When my cultivation got exposed, I couldn’t hide the auras anymore. It was only a matter of time before they realized your aura disappeared.”
Sitting on the stone chair, the youth had his legs down, tilting his head towards Ye Yu.
“Sister, are you afraid?”
“…”
Ye Yu glanced at him and said, “I’m afraid, afraid of dying.”
Although she said that, there were no signs of fear on that woman’s expression at all.
Even more, he couldn’t even see a tint of hesitation or conflict.
Xuan Yi couldn’t help but laugh.
If he had to say something, it seemed like Ye Yu was just a little absent-minded.
“Then sister, what are you thinking about?”
“…What you should be concerned with shouldn’t be what I’m thinking.” Ye Yu sighed and reached over to poke the youth’s eyebrows, saying, “Your revenge plan is about to fail and you —”
She stopped talking when the youth moved closer to her.
Once the youth got his way, he softly chuckled and moved forward, kissing the fingertip that was halfway in the air.
“Sister, I like you.”
This confession was unexpected and made Ye Yu stunned in her original spot.
Sitting by her, the youth’s smile was pure but charming. It felt like a warm and spring light that even lit up the gloomy and dark underground palace.
It wasn’t dazzling and it was very comfortable.
… One couldn’t help but laugh just by glancing at him.
Ye Yu sighed and withdrew her gaze.
The youth moved a few more inches closer to her and said, “Sister, don’t be afraid. I will accompany you. Even until the last moment, I will stand by your side.”
“…Shut up.” Ye Yu said unhappily.
Xuan Yi didn’t say anything anymore, widening his pitch-black eyes and stared at Ye Yu.
Ye Yu tilted her face to the side and asked, “That good? You keep calling me sister and you want to prove that you’re actually well-behaved?”
“Because sister doesn’t seem to be happy.” Xuan Yi looked down and said, “We don’t have much time left and I don’t want sister to be unhappy.”
