Chapter 240 Atonement Through Merit
Upon hearing about Xiao Wei's situation, the Demon Lord's expression gradually became serious. Clearly, there were many things to consider in this matter, and he needed to think it over carefully.
"Are you sure that Xiao Wei was born from the destiny of the Qingqiu Fox Clan in the Myriad Realms?"
Gu Yuchuan nodded heavily: "That's right, Venerable One. I've heard this news many times in the Myriad Flower Realm and I'm certain that this is the case. Even the Demon Emperor and the Venerable One have confirmed it. It's unlikely that they're putting on an act. I'm absolutely certain that Xiao Wei is the Daughter of Destiny."
The Demon Lord paced slowly, pondering how to retaliate. It was indeed somewhat irritating that they had done nothing while others had come to their doorstep. He was determined to make them understand that taking action would come at a price.
The Demon Lord began to gather his magical power, which slowly condensed into a blue gem in his hand. The Heavenly Dao also infused its power into it.
"Take this with you when you see Xiaowei. The moment you see him, it will merge into Xiaowei."
Gu Yuchuan carefully took it, but his eyes showed doubt, clearly wanting to know what it was. He looked at the Demon Lord, who chuckled and began to finish it.
"This is my innate demonic power and the imprint of the Heavenly Dao. As Xiao Wei returns and her cultivation increases, these influences on her will grow stronger. Gradually, she will become our compass for living, unless she leaves the Wanhua Realm. But once she leaves, it will damage the fortune of Qingqiu in the Wanhua Realm. This is a calculated move: either you damage the fortune, or you wait for our invasion. I want to see how they choose."
Although this scheme isn't particularly sophisticated, it's still a calculated move that will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble. In the end, it will be the Fox Lord of Qingqiu who will be in a bad mood. After all the planning, they finally brought back the Lady of Destiny of Qingqiu, but her destiny has been corrupted. If he were in the Fox Lord of Qingqiu's shoes, he would be furious.
A smile spread across Gu Yuchuan's face. He was happy to see his enemy suffer a setback, but unfortunately, he wasn't strong enough to witness it himself.
The Demon Lord spoke again: "Moreover, we can use Xiao Wei to see the cultivation levels and power distribution of cultivators throughout the Wanhua Realm, so we don't have to take the cultivators there ourselves. I just sensed the cultivation level of that Venerable on your body, and he's only at the second level of the Nascent Soul stage. He's indeed not strong. If he really is the strongest in the Wanhua Realm, then the Wanhua Realm can become our next target, and you will truly be a great contributor."
He looked at Gu Yuchuan with a scrutinizing gaze: "You really have some luck, kid. The two worlds that our Qingyun Realm has come into contact with were both found by you. There are so many worlds in the World Sea, like grains of sand in the Ganges. It's really hard to find a suitable minor world. Back then, the Celestial Masters of Longhu Mountain wanted to find a minor world to invade the world in order to compete for the fortune. They used their Longhu Mountain's spiritual treasures to fly through the World Sea for fifty years without finding one. You found two in one year. To be honest, it's really outrageous. If Longhu Mountain finds out, they'll be furious."
Gu Yuchuan didn't know what to say, so he could only smile at the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord glanced at the Heavenly Dao, who had already disappeared, clearly having nothing more to say. Since he had nothing else to say, he spoke to Gu Yuchuan.
"Alright, there's nothing else now, so go ahead and get busy. Do this well, it will greatly benefit your luck. The Heavenly Dao is watching you from the shadows, and you know how great the benefits of being favored by the Heavenly Dao are for a cultivator. I don't need to tell you that, do I?"
Gu Yuchuan nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, Venerable One, I will definitely do my best to handle this matter."
With a wave of his hand, the Demon Lord created a spatial rift in front of him: "Go in, it will teleport you directly to Dragon Tiger City."
Gu Yuchuan stepped inside, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already in Dragon Tiger City. The night was beautiful, with twinkling stars that made the town much clearer. Gu Yuchuan quickly found the Frozen Prison, slipped inside, and the first thing he saw was the little bird.
The bird was overjoyed to see him: "Senior, you're finally back! My sister was about to collapse. Did you get my sister's tail back?"
Although this little bird is a native demon of their Qingyun Realm, she was raised by Xiao Wei before she developed any intelligence. Now, she has a very deep bond with Xiao Wei. It's true that her bloodline is that of a very ordinary mortal beast, not even a demon beast. Xiao Wei really put a lot of effort into making her a Foundation Establishment stage demon general. It's understandable that she worries about Xiao Wei.
Gu Yuchuan nodded calmly. The bird jumped up immediately: "Great! My sister is saved! Senior, come quickly, I'll take you to see my sister."
Gu Yuchuan hadn't gone far with the bird when he saw Xiao Wei lying on the ground. She was completely bloodless, and her life energy was about to be exhausted. If he had arrived a few days later, it was hard to say whether Xiao Wei would have survived.
Although the Frozen Prison helped Xiao Wei escape from the Myriad Realms, as a small secret realm, its stability required energy, which was obtained from Xiao Wei using chains. It can be said that while the Frozen Prison saved Xiao Wei's life, it also trapped her in a predicament. If Gu Yuchuan hadn't broken in, Xiao Wei would have been trapped and died here.
Gu Yuchuan took out a pill to replenish qi and blood and had the bird feed it to Xiao Wei. In this state, Xiao Wei had neither the energy nor the ability to talk to him.
After taking the pill, Xiao Wei slowly woke up, and her face regained some color. At this time, the blue gem on Gu Yuchuan's body merged into Xiao Wei's body. Xiao Wei, who was at her limit, had difficulty maintaining her own life, let alone being aware of these things. She did not notice anything at all.
“You brought my tail back. I can feel it. My tail is on your body.”
Gu Yuchuan handed the remaining two halves of the story to Xiao Wei and recounted everything that had happened to him in the Wanhua Realm.
Xiao Wei gripped her tail tightly, her face turning extremely ugly: "The Wang family actually dared to insult me like this, and the Shen family also had their schemes. However, I ultimately cannot personally destroy the Wang family, but I will make the Shen family pay the price."
Xiao Wei's eyes were filled with killing intent. She slowly began to merge with her tail, and a huge amount of magic power surrounded her. The entire Frozen Prison was filled with her magic power.
