Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Emperor Nine Nether Possession (19th Update)

"Xinn’er, over there!" Amidst the void, the beautiful mother and daughter were searching for the person they were looking for, when suddenly the mother pointed toward a vast expanse of sky-blue land in the distance and said to the daughter by her side.

"Ah! It’s Big Brother!" Looking toward where her mother was pointing, the girl immediately saw a bloody, flesh-muddled body not far away, along with the withered corpse of a dried-up cadaver.

Although the corpse was also disfigured beyond recognition, the mother and daughter quickly recognized from the tattered golden robe on his body that this man was the one who had fought with Shi Feng, the man with the neatly trimmed beard.

Two graceful shadows drifted down and landed beside Shi Feng. Looking at the ghastly sight, where it was impossible to find a patch of intact skin on him, a look of concern once again appeared on the girl’s pretty face. She said to her mother, "Mother, Brother can’t be..."

The beautiful woman did not speak but slowly squatted down, extending her hand towards Shi Feng’s bloody face to check his breath.

After a while, the beautiful woman stood up and, gazing at Shi Feng, remarked, "Such a strong life force, he isn’t dead even like this!"

"What! Big Brother isn’t dead? That’s great, truly great!" Upon hearing her mother’s words, the girl’s worried face transformed into one of joy. However, as the girl looked again at the bloodied and mutilated Shi Feng, the joy quickly vanished and she sighed, "What a shame, he was such a handsome man before, and now he’s become like this. I guess he might never recover."

"Yes," the beautiful woman agreed, responding to the girl’s remark. "I used to think the two of you would make a good match, both talented and beautiful, but now that his looks are ruined, it seems that is no longer possible."

"Mother, what are you talking about!" The girl’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment upon hearing her mother suddenly say such things. She chided softly, her head slightly lowered, then glanced again at the bloodied face and heaved another quiet sigh, "Ah! If only it were still like before, how wonderful that would be!"

"Regardless, he has been kind to us many times. We must save him now that he’s injured like this," the beautiful woman stated.

"Of course," the girl nodded.

Then, the mother and daughter took out wound-cleaning solutions, healing pills, and powders for external application from their storage rings. They began to remove Shi Feng’s armor, cleaned his wounds, applied medicine, and bandaged him up.

Having been injured by that unnamed blood-colored monster in the Blood-colored Space, Shi Feng was once again turned into a mummy by the attentive care of these two beautiful women, wrapped up in white gauze.

"His constitution is truly remarkable; I’ve noticed his vitality is gradually strengthening," said the beautiful woman, checking Shi Feng’s breath once more after bandaging him.

"It looks like he won’t die!"

...

In the darkness, Shi Feng’s consciousness that had receded like the tide was slowly returning. Just then, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind, bewitching like a demonic whisper, "Submit to me!"

"Submit to me!"

"Submit to me!"

"Submit to me!"

The voice echoed repeatedly in Shi Feng’s hazy mind, bewitching and tempting his spirit. This voice was the same one he had heard while standing in front of the Bronze Gate, the one that had tempted him to push it open.

"No! I am the Supreme and unparalleled Emperor Nine Nether, how can I submit to the likes of you! Begone!" Listening to the Demon Voice echoing continuously in his mind, Shi Feng steeled his resolve, and then let out a violent shout!

"Ah!" Immediately, Shi Feng woke from his slumber, his upper body abruptly rising from the ground as he lay there, his eyes snapping open to a cascade of overlapping blue illusions. Then, as the layers of illusions merged into one, Shi Feng could clearly see the azure world around him, and two graceful figures in front of his eyes.

At this moment, Shi Feng lifted his head slightly and saw two beautiful women, a mother and daughter, looking down at him with weird glances.

Shi Feng quickly became aware of his situation. His Blood-colored Battle Armor had been removed and was placed by his side, and his body was wrapped in white bandages. It must have been this mother and daughter who had disrobed his armor and bandaged him, yet their gazes toward him were indeed somewhat peculiar.

Looking at them, Shi Feng asked, "What’s the matter? Why are you both looking at me like that?"

"You just said you were Emperor Nine Nether?" the young girl asked quietly.

The once-great Emperor Nine Nether who stood as the strongest under the heavens, although fallen for more than fifteen years, was a figure that no Martial Artist of the Tianheng Continent would fail to recognize.

"Oh, I just had a dream and talked in my sleep, that’s all," Shi Feng said.

"So, you’re not Emperor Nine Nether?" the girl asked again.

After hearing the girl’s words, Shi Feng smiled and the white bandages wrapped around his face twitched slightly as he responded, "What do you think?"

Then, the girl shook her head and said, "It looks like you really were just dreaming. I thought for a moment that you had been possessed by the soul of Emperor Nine Nether."

Indeed, on the Tianheng Continent, there were legends of Martial Artists being possessed by evil or powerful souls.

After listening to the girl’s words, Shi Feng, hidden behind the white bandages, smiled again. His own situation was somewhat similar, except that he had reincarnated, awakening the memories of his past life.

"On this Tianheng Continent, there must be quite a few people who would wish to be possessed by Emperor Nine Nether," Shi Feng joked.

After hearing Shi Feng’s words, the girl smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, it seems you truly haven’t been possessed by the Great Emperor; you just had a strange dream."

"How so?" Shi Feng inquired.

"That’s Emperor Nine Nether, after all, the once strongest in these skies! If it really were His Excellency the Great Emperor, he wouldn’t deign to joke with a little girl like me. The Emperor should be cold, haughty, and when he looks at people, it should only be with a sideways glance, and in his eyes, there ought to be nothing but disdain!" the girl said earnestly, as though she was describing Emperor Nine Nether as she imagined him to be.

Shi Feng, after hearing this, felt amused. The image of himself in the girl’s mind seemed to cast him as an old man who glared sideways at people, as if many owed him money.

"Actually, Emperor Nine Nether isn’t as old as you think, and he’s not like you describe, as if everyone owes him money," Shi Feng clarified.

"Hehe, you talk as if you’ve met the Great Emperor himself. You are about the same age as me, and if I’m not mistaken, His Excellency should have already perished by the time we were born," the girl said, and then she asked with concern, "How do you feel about your injury now? Is it okay?"

After listening to the girl’s question, Shi Feng checked his injuries, then looked up at the girl and said, "I’m fine, this little injury won’t kill me!"

"That’s good!" the girl responded with a nod, and then she added, "Don’t talk too much, just lie down and rest. Keep your mind calm and try not to have any more strange dreams. If you moved as violently as you just did, your wounds might open up again!"
