Chapter 1122: Chapter 1120: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind!

"He will come for me, he definitely will!"

Ye Youde naturally heard Ye Qingcheng’s whisper and, flicking his sleeves in anger, retorted, "Ye Qingcheng, you shameless whore, thinking of that wretched boy again? Do you really think he’d come to save you? I advise you to abandon that hope! It’s impossible!"

Ye Qingcheng lifted her head, her eyes resolute as she looked at Ye Youde, remaining silent.

Suddenly, Ye Youde inexplicably burst into laughter, his aged face twisting grotesquely, devilish!

"In the secular world, it might be that boy’s territory, but here in the Hidden Gate, it’s my domain. Do you believe he wouldn’t even step through the door before meeting his end without a grave? The Hidden Gate belongs to those with power, and I am that person with power. Young Master Lei has even greater authority over life and death; marrying him is a fortune you’ll only encounter once in your lifetime!"

"If the Lei Family is so great, then you marry them yourself! I won’t marry that guy!"

Ye Qingcheng asserted firmly.

Ye Youde heard this disrespectful utterance, panickedly looking around before waving his hand dismissively, fearing someone might overhear. His face filled with anger, he almost slapped her, but stopped halfway.

Ye Qingcheng’s face was to meet Young Master Lei in a few days, naturally, it couldn’t be harmed, or his plans would be ruined. If Young Master Lei saw his future bride beaten, for the sake of the Lei Family’s face, there would surely be a reckoning, and the losses would outweigh the gains.

Instantly, Ye Youde snorted coldly, his arm trembling as a terrifying wave of energy dispersed around him, and in an instant, the surrounding plant pots shattered! The whole back garden was a mess!

This was how Ye Youde vented his rage!

"Rest assured, I, Ye Youde, will never let that boy step foot into the Hidden Gate! If he dares to enter, I’ll make sure he never returns! Humph!"

Having said that, Ye Youde turned and left immediately, unwilling to stay and get frustrated any longer. He truly couldn’t understand what was so special about that mere secular boy, compared to Young Master Lei, it was like comparing heaven and earth!

The Lei Family held the true power within the Hidden Gate, while he was at best a broken Sect Leader of the secular world!

What is he compared to that?

How laughable for an ant to dare compete with the sun and the moon!

However, the Ghost King he summoned that day was truly terrifying, and who knew where the boy got all those treasures from?

...

On the Inner Island of Purgatory, in the hall of the Emperor Qin Shi Huang Bronze Man.

Ren Feifan, who had just stabilized his Innate late-stage cultivation, gradually opened his eyes which were blood red, as if possessed by demons.

The Demon Queen, acting as his protector not far away, noticed that Ren Feifan had finished his cultivation. She wanted to run over and celebrate her master’s breakthrough, but when she saw Ren Feifan’s eyes, she was utterly panicked.

How terrifying...

"Master, your eyes..." the Demon Queen reminded him, her voice trembling for some reason.

Ren Feifan was very clear-headed at that moment, furrowed his brow, and took out a mirror from a mysterious space.

The reflection showed a familiar yet foreign face.

Soon, Ren Feifan realized something was wrong, his eyes were so red!

It was exactly like the demonic possession he experienced before!

He instinctively rolled up his sleeve and was shocked to find that the Dragon Tattoo on his arm had temporarily vanished, replaced by four spiraling crimson Blood Moons.

"How did it turn into four? Wasn’t there only one before?"

Most people might not find this significant, but Ren Feifan felt it was a serious matter. The change in the Blood Moons indicated the extent of his demonic possession!

Although his power could increase drastically, it was difficult for him to remain conscious under the influence of the Blood Moon.

Previously, with the one Blood Moon, it had taken him a long time to gradually control his possessed self; now, with four Blood Moons, he was afraid to even use the Blood Moon power.

Who knew if he might lose his consciousness completely?

In the past, Su Mohan helped him, but now that Su Mohan had gone to the Hidden Gate, what could he do?

Ren Feifan glanced at the Bronze Man, a daring idea suddenly struck him. Would practicing the Spirit Demon Finger down here be of any use?

Let’s try it!

Soon, Ren Feifan discovered that the Spirit Demon Finger was advancing rapidly!

Indeed, it was useful!

But he only practiced for half a day before stopping, for now, the Spirit Demon Finger was powerful enough for him. Continuing to practice it was not a good thing.

Afterward, Ren Feifan dusted off his rear end and stood up, his gaze once again falling on the Bronze Man behind him. For some reason, the Bronze Man seemed a bit dimmer, but, like himself, it was enveloped in a layer of Evil Qi.

"Could the remaining three rounds of the Blood Moon come from this Bronze Man?"

Muttering to himself, Ren Feifan found the idea more and more likely. Regardless of whether it was due to the Bronze Man or not, it wasn’t good for him to continue practicing and breaking through. He glanced at the Demon Queen and said directly, "Time’s almost up, let’s go!"

"But your eyes..." The Demon Queen saw and still showed some fear, those eyes were cold and bone-chilling.

"It’s fine, they will fade later."

Ren Feifan took one last look at the Bronze Man. Although he couldn’t take it with him now, he’d find a way to practice Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Cultivation Technique if he had the chance in the future. After all, it wasn’t going anywhere.

...

Three o’clock in the afternoon.

On the shore of Black Lake on the Inner Island of Purgatory.

Lin Qingxue and the Spirit Clan girl were anxiously waiting. It had been a full three days since Ren Feifan jumped in, but there was not a single ripple on Black Lake.

"Sister Qingxue, could it be that Brother Ren..." began the Spirit Clan girl, her face full of worry.

"Don’t talk nonsense. How could anything happen to Ren Feifan? He even dealt with the Pharaoh!"

Lin Qingxue’s eyes hardened, showing utter determination.

Even though she said this, in her heart, she was also considering calling it quits. Over these three days, they had released some wild beasts into the Black Lake, and in the end, only skeletons floated up. Clearly, Black Lake was more terrifying than they had imagined.

Just as doubts flickered between the two women’s brows, Black Lake suddenly started churning, even forming a massive whirlpool.

The whirlpool seemed to exude an endless deathly stillness.

Then, to their amazement, two figures appeared in their line of sight!

A man and a woman! Astonishingly, they were the two people they had been thinking about incessantly!

"Ren Feifan!"

"Holy Maiden!"

Upon recognizing these two figures, both women screamed out, almost rushing towards them.

Soon, Ren Feifan and the Demon Queen stepped onto the shore. The Spirit Clan girl flung herself into the Demon Queen’s arms, sobbing loudly,

The Holy Maiden meant so much to the Spirit Clan, she hadn’t even been able to eat properly these past few days, consumed by worry for the Holy Maiden’s safety.

Lin Qingxue looked at Ren Feifan with shining eyes, and said with a smile, "I knew you, kid, wouldn’t be so easily defeated!"

Ren Feifan was just about to speak when a series of "clap clap clap!" applause suddenly broke out.

The next second, a large group of people emerged from the woods behind them, they were all Huaxia cultivators! And they were strong!

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; the ancients described this scene well. Not bad, not bad at all," a cold voice rose in everyone’s ears!
