Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 328: The Confused Zi Ya

Chapter 328: Chapter 328: The Confused Zi Ya

"Little fool! How could it be him!" The Snake-man Clan woman, clad in red with her navel exposed and a figure both voluptuous and enchanting, twisted her purple snake tail as she slowly approached Zi Ya, the girl of the Snake-man Clan.

"Indeed, how could such a formidable person be him?" Zi Ya shook her head and muttered softly.

She still remembered Shi Feng, who had been stranded with her in that mystical space. Although he had the strength to challenge those beyond his level, his martial realm was not even at the Martial King Realm then. In such a short time, how could it be possible for him to have killed warriors of the Three-star Martial Venerable Realm.

If it really was him, wouldn’t that be defying the natural order? But how could it be possible!

Zi Ya shook her head and laughed at the thought that had just flashed through her mind.

The woman in red came to sit beside Zi Ya at the edge of the rooftop, and her face suddenly revealed an expression full of worry. She gazed at her youngest sister and said, "Little fool, you should think more about your own situation. Are you really not going to leave?"

Hearing her elder sister’s words, Zi Ya’s smile instantly froze on her face. She bowed her head, looking down at the Snake-man Clan’s territory, at the busy clanspeople, and shook her head, saying, "Sister, I can’t leave. If I were to go, what would become of our people? If by sacrificing myself, I could bring eternal peace to our clanspeople, then... it would be worth it."

"Silly sister!" Thinking of Zi Ya’s plight, the thought of her sacrificing herself for the peace of the entire clan, and that this child was only fourteen years old, tears rolled down the cheeks of the woman in red, as she hugged her sister tightly.

Why must fate toy with such a kind-hearted girl!

In the deserts, from ancient times to the present, a mysterious race has always existed, the Dark Elf Clan.

The enigmatic Dark Elf Clan, seldom seen among other races, but every race in the desert knows of their might, just how strong, no one knows.

Any race that offends this mysterious race and disobeys their commands, from ancient times to now, has faced the disaster of annihilation.

Zi Ya, the kind-hearted girl of the Snake-man Clan, had saved a dying Dark Elf youth in the desert days ago, never imagining that this Dark Elf youth was the son of the Elf Clan leader. Zi Ya’s kindness and beauty deeply attracted him.

Once his injuries were healed, the Dark Elf youth returned to his territory. A few days later, he sent a messenger from the Elf Clan to decree that in one month, they would marry the Snake-man Clan girl Zi Ya!

The command of the Dark Elf Clan was clear to the Snake-man race. They knew what it meant to disobey and what the consequences would be.

Although Zi Ya did not like that person, though she already had someone in her heart, the strength of the Dark Elf Clan left her with no choice.

"What should I do... Do I really have to go through with this?" Even though she had resolved to sacrifice herself for the peace of the whole clan, Zi Ya’s mind was still a blur.

...

In the Heavenly Mist Empire, now the Yunlai Empire’s Palace, a small blood-colored stele hovered. Inside the Stele Space, Shi Ling sat cross-legged, circulating the Spirit Martial Technique. Centered around his body, pure Primordial Energy surged like an ocean in all directions, frenziedly rushing towards him. Shi Ling absorbed the incoming Primordial Energy like a giant whale drawing in water, his small body taking in all the energy from all directions, turning it all into Primordial Power.

"Innate Spiritual Body, indeed abnormal!" Shi Ling’s change in body was closely watched by Shi Feng, who stood quietly by her side. Over this period, like a whale devouring vast amounts of water, she absorbed such a large quantity of Primordial Energy, yet this little one still hadn’t stepped into the Martial Disciple Realm.

The speed at which the Spirit Martial Technique absorbed Primordial Energy was unparalleled by ordinary cultivation techniques, and the majestic Primordial Energy that Shi Ling had devoured recently would have been enough to break through to the Martial Master Realm for someone with a normal constitution.

Not far away, Hong Yue and Little Moli’s speed of absorbing Primordial Energy was more standard, following a step-by-step process without exhibiting the abnormality of that little one, Shi Ling.

However, cultivating in the current space, filled with majestic and pure Primordial Energy, was not something the outside world could compare to; here, it was as if they were cultivating with Primordial Stone all the time.

And cultivating by absorbing Primordial Energy was secondary. The most important factor was that they comprehended the sword mark left by Shi Feng and understood the Martial Arts Sword Intent within the mark. With sufficient internal Primordial Power, they could directly break through without facing years of bottleneck as in the past.

Shi Feng had discovered that, after this period of cultivation, Little Moli, who was at the Three-star Martial King Realm, was on the verge of meeting the breakthrough criteria, and it wouldn’t be long before she could likely advance to the Four-star Martial King Realm.

As for Hong Yue, she still needed some time to step into the Seven-star Martial King Realm.

With a flash of blood-colored light on his body, Shi Feng disappeared from the spot, and then a streak of blood-colored light flashed in front of the two women, Hong Yue and Little Moli, with Shi Feng now standing before them.

"Awaken!" Shi Feng communicated to the two women using Soul Power. All other affairs in the Heavenly Mist Empire had been taken care of; what remained was the promise he had made to these two women.

Recalling the time in the blood-colored space, how he was critically injured and fell into the jungle, he remembered it was these two kind women who saved him. They deceived Ling Hao, the Genius Disciple from the Floating Void Sect, carried him, and fled through the jungle to escape Ling Hao’s pursuit until his injuries healed, and he killed Ling Hao in retaliation.

It could be said that if not for these two women, his severely injured self would have possibly been discovered by the people from the Floating Void Sect after falling into the jungle and then cruelly killed by Ling Hao, who was at the Three-star Martial Ancestor Realm.

Also, due to the kindness of these two women, Shi Feng wanted to keep them by his side, allowing them to follow him and go further on the path of Martial Arts.

Upon Shi Feng’s call, the two cultivating women slowly awakened and opened their eyes to see Shi Feng standing before them.

Afterward, Shi Feng told them, "All else regarding the Heavenly Mist Empire has been settled. Now, I shall accompany you to the Yin Ghost Sect."

"Now?" Hong Yue asked.

"Great!" Little Moli said, full of joy, and then clenched her little fists, indignantly saying, "Gui Yinzi is simply too evil, you must help us kill Gui Yinzi!"

"Of course!" Shi Feng smiled faintly and replied to Little Moli, "I’ll make him taste the flavor of the Mother-Child Ghost Grudge Curse, how does that sound?"

"Good!" Little Moli immediately laughed in response to Shi Feng’s words.

However, Hong Yue’s face showed a trace of worry as she said, "Although Gui Yinzi and the Yin Ghost Sect are no match for you, I’m worried that the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect might intervene in this matter."
