To cultivators, a period of two months was just as short as meditating for a while.
Outside the star island, the female corpse would stand on the star reef every day and gaze into the star sea.
She did not know how dangerous the situations which Ning Fan was currently experiencing were. Neither did she know how many killings Ning Fan had involved himself in.
However, even though she was not as clingy to Ning Fan as before, she could somehow feel all the killings and massacres that he committed were all for her.
“Light…”
The tides of the star sea made the female corpse feel calm for the first time. She was just a dead person. She no longer have any memories or emotions. However, in her current life, she still found it difficult to leave him alone.
As for Wu Yan who was free and leisurely all day, her injuries had completely recovered within the past two months. However, throughout these two months, she began to feel worried for a person’s safety for the first time.
The female corpse might not be able to understand where Ning Fan was at and what he was doing, but Wu Yan knew.
That day, Ning Fan sent a flying sword back to convey his message, telling the three women to take a good rest.
That day, Ning Fan’s tone was as calm as usual, sounding like he was just going out to sea in search of spiritual medicines instead of killing people.
However, in the next moment, each of the shocking news began to spread across the island. A powerful devil prestige which would cause one’s facial expression to change by just hearing his name made no demon beast bold enough to create troubles in the star island!
“Yan…?”
Sensing that Wu Yan and Yue Lingkong had come to look for her, the female corpse gently turned her head around and asked with a hesitant voice.
“Where…is…Light…”
“You want to know where he is?”
Wu Yan who donned a green-feathered robe had a poignant beauty like that of a lonely concubine who had been locked up in a cold palace. Affectionately, she stroked the female corpse’s hair.
She knew that this female corpse who had been dead for many years was too important to Ning Fan.
Aside from that, Wu Yan also had some good feelings towards the female corpse. Not only does she like this pure and innocent girl, but she also took pity on her fate of being turned into a corpse devil.
“I also have no idea where Lu Bei is right now… However, I do know one thing. Everything he does is probably for you. Crushing the Gui Xiong Outpost, freezing the Dragon Burial City, smashing the Southern Prison Country and overturning Kun Mo’s domain… I think he should be returning soon.”
Unfortunately, about whatever he had done, I know it, the group of demons know it, but you don’t …
Wu Yan felt a little sentimental.
The reason why Ning Fan went out to the sea was to search for the Soul Refining Sand to refine the purple zoysia in order to restore the female corpse’s Sea of Consciousness.
The reason why Ning Fan killed was to shoulder all the danger which the star island faced by himself so that the three women residing in the star island would not meet any troubles.
Wu Yan knew. She knew Ning Fan, the cold young man with an unyielding spirit. She also knew that this young man actually had a gentle side.
Unfortunately, the female corpse would never understand it. Upon hearing Wu Yan’s words, the female corpse only confusedly nodded her head. Among all the words she heard, she merely understood the last sentence Wu Yan uttered.
“Oh…”
She did not know what kind of danger Ning Fan had faced.
She only knew that Ning Fan seemed to be returning very soon.
The female corpse would never realize that at the moment when she feared Ning Fan and avoided his hug, had actually hurt him deeply.
“That stinky young man sure is a little too terrifying… Even if I regain my power, I won’t dare to act wildly and recklessly in a dangerous place like this Star Sea. This Star Sea is nearly nothing much different than the Endless Sea… This little cucumber is really rash… Although it’s just two months not meeting him in person, I’m actually thinking about him…”
When speaking about Ning Fan, Yue Lingkong’s facial expression was full of admiration. Since she was a woman who possessed a heroic attitude, she would of course be fond of a man who shared the same personality as her.
The mad deeds which Ning Fan had done made her, the female tyrant of the Endless Sea, be ashamed of her own inferiority. Outwardly, there were only seven Half-Step Void Refinement Realm beings in the Internal Endless Sea. However, in the Star Sea, after igniting the ancestor blood, Ning Fan had killed nine experts of that cultivation level by himself… As for Divine Transformation Realm experts, he had killed a total of 300 of them!
If this result were to be spread to the Internal Endless Sea, perhaps Ning Fan’s reputation would literally exceed any of the seven venerated beings of the Internal Endless Sea!
Even Yue Lingkong did not notice herself that when she was discussing Ning Fan’s victories, she, who had been killing people like flies, actually felt respectful towards him.
“Exactly. He always acts recklessly… In the past, when we were at the Luo Yun Tribe, in order to avenge Sister Wan’er, he fought the demons of the nine tribes all by himself and killed all of his challengers out of anger. At that time, he stood above the Cloud Platform and looked down on the world. However, none of the demons dared to take resist against him anymore… At that time, he was really impressive. Unfortunately, Sister Yue was not there at that time. This isn’t his first time committing such a frenzied act…”
Wu Yan gently nodded her head, completely acknowledging what Yue Lingkong had just said.
Ning Fan might seem harmless when he is not angry. However, when he is truly enraged, he is an insane devil! His madness would strike fear into his enemies, causing all of them to be terrified but it would make the women who stood behind him feel safe and warm.
*Rumble*
At the moment when each of the three women were thinking of Ning Fan, the sky above the star island was on the verge of crumbling once more.
Dark rifts and cracks appeared in the hollow space at the same time in all directions. Gusts of wind from the Void Realm blew out. Fortunately, the cracks were not too big. As such, the windstorm of the Void Realm did not manage to form.
In the past two months when Ning Fan had left, it was not the first time that such a phenomenon occurred.
Wu Yan and Yue Lingkong were experts with above average intelligence. The experience they had were exceptionally vast. Both of them could immediately tell that the shattering of the Void Realm this time was not a natural phenomenon, but man-made!
“It can’t be wrong. Someone launched attacks at this world from the Void Realm, attempting to break the barrier of this world where the Star Palace is located. They want to intrude this world!”
“The Star Palace is in the Third World while the three worlds of the Land of Slumber are all within the territory of the Rain World… The Rain World is not the territory of the demon race. Therefore, even if the members of my Spirit King Palace or the True Spirit Races would need to use the secret techniques of Realm Passage in order to reach this world. However, this group of people are forcefully intruding here directly from outside this world… That is to say, they are very like to be the forces of the divine race…”
The two women were forming their respective guesses. However, after a brief moment, their beautiful eyes flashed with surprise.
In the past, even if the Void Realm is broken, it will recover very quickly, just like the foreign forces who wanted to intrude the Star Palace were being restricted by some kind of formation, causing them to be unable to enter this world smoothly.
Today, however, eight parts of the sky were crushed but only seven of them recovered!
On the eighth part of the sky which failed to recover, nearly one hundred rays of light shot out consecutively, revealing nearly one hundred purple-robed cultivators!
All of their cultivation levels were at the Nascent Soul Realm and above. In fact, there was a total of twelve cultivators who were at the Divine Transformation Realm and above!
The leader of the group was a purple-robed young man. His qi was extremely cold and his eyes emanated a trace of devilish purple qi. Even though his bone age was not more than 700 years old, he had attained the Mid Divine Transformation Realm!
Even so, this man was not enough to cause Yue Lingkong and her group to feel dreadful. The main problem was the two elderly men who were dressed in sackcloths standing behind him!
One of them had his left eye blinded while the other one had his right eye blinded. However, both of them were experts of the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm!
Having such powerful experts standing respectfully behind the purple-robed young man as if they were his servants was sufficient to show how unique the young man’s identity was!
“So this place is the Star Palace? Although I have no idea why there is an Immortal Grade maze set up within the Void Realm, not to mention the person who has weakened more than half of the power of the maze… All in all, I, the young master of the ‘Purple Robe Palace’ from the ‘Purple Soul Star Domain’ of the Northern Heaven, is the first to enter the star sea among all the other forces of the Northern Heaven!”
“Congratulations to Young Master for taking the lead in entering the Star Palace! It is really laughable that the demons had intruded the territory of our divine race with the intention to secretly seize the Star of the Celestial Emperor! It’s extremely difficult for the members of a foreign world to enter ours. Besides, the people they sent would not be too strong. Perhaps they won’t even be able to send a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert… We, the Kun Wu Elders, will definitely assist Young Master in obtaining the Star of the Celestial Emperor! If Young Master acquires it, you can definitely be able to break through to the Late Divine Transformation Realm in one go! A seven hundred years old Late Divine Transformation Realm being… In the entire Purple Soul Star Domain, a being like that is considered a rare being, just like the hair of a phoenix and the horns of a qilin! Besides, this star has a great use in the trip to the Ancient Heavenly Court. If Young Master obtains this star and becomes the master of the Heavenly Court, what would the White Devil Sect be?!”
“Well said! If I, Zi Chuan1, successfully obtains the Star of the Celestial Emperor, each of you will be given two Purple Life Pills when I return to the Purple Soul Star! I know you have been craving for it!”
“Purple Life Pill! We will certainly not disgrace you and we will surely help you obtain the star!”
The Kun Wu Elders cupped their firsts and saluted Zi Chuan with their eyes burning with determination.
If one obtains the Purple Life Pill of the Purple Soul Star, both of them would have the hope of breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm!
The two elderly men’s eyes fell upon the star island located beneath their feet. Immediately, their facial expressions were filled with great delight. The star island was just right in front of them. Besides, there was a star gate located right on the island.
We are indeed fortunate. We are not only the first to enter the Star Palace, but also directly discovered the Star Gate. After entering the gate, we can arrive straight away at the Heaven Hall!
Moreover, when their gazes swept across the borders of the island, they caught sight of the three women. Both of them immediately revealed a lecherous look and licked their lips.
“Three women with two of them at the Late Divine Transformation Realm and one at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm… The first one has the most superb physique; the second one is a refined corpse while the third one is a girl… There are really all kinds of women here. Hehe. All of them could really be regarded as excellent cauldrons!”
The Kun Wu Elders might not be considered to have high cultivation levels in the Purple Soul Star Domain, but their notoriety, however, was rather widespread. They especially loved making female cultivators suffer.
Their actions were always against all laws and regulations. As long as they set their eyes upon any woman whose background was not strong, there was no one they would not dare to abduct! After all, they were backed by the Purple Robe Palace. Hence, there was not any influential forces which dared to pursue them.
Countless maidens died in their hands while harboring hatred and resentment. Today, however, these two perverted old men turned their attention to Wu Yan and her group.
“Young Master, the Star Gate is right on this island. Apparently, some of the demons have already entered it. It seems like it is going to need a few more days before it opens… Before entering the Heaven Hall, we intend to have some fun on this island…”
Fun. Without a doubt, their fun was referring to the three women!
Zi Chuan frowned. Considering that he would still need assistance from the two elders to seize the Star of the Celestial Emperor after entering the Heaven Hall, he did not stop them. Instead, he just coldly uttered.
“Do it quietly… and make it fast!”
“Yes, Young Master! There are three beauties below. After we capture them, Young Master can pick one of them first while the remaining two will belong to us!” The two elders smiled lecherously.
“No need! I am not interested in women!”
Zi Chuan closed his eyes indifferently whereas the Kun Wu Elders were already unable to contain themselves any longer and dashed directly towards them.
It was just a short moment after the powerful experts of the Purple Robe Palace appeared.
However, within that period of time, Yue Lingkong and Wu Yan could feel the lascivious gazes of the Kun Wu Elders who were above the sky. Each of their faces was instantly filled with coldness.
Especially Yue Lingkong, she was extremely enraged!
If she regains her original power, even if her opponents are two Half-Step Void Refinement Realm experts, as long as they dare to disrespect her, she would definitely approach them and teach them a lesson.
However, at this moment, Yue Lingkong’s cultivation level was greatly weakened. Even if her secret technique of moon consciousness was powerful, she could at most block the attacks of one of them. While the other Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert could easily take out Wu Yan as well as the female corpse.
“Quickly flee!”
Yue Lingkong was no longer as casual as before. Currently, her eyes shone with cold light, emanating an imposing aura which made her look just like a long-lived emperor!
Without hesitation, she bit the tip of her tongue and rushed towards the northern part of the island while carrying the female corpse and Wu Yan!
The southern part of the island only had the three of them. The northern part of the island, however, had the bear demon who might be able to give them a hand.
Yue Lingkong did not know how Ning Fan made the bear demon fear him, but she believed that as long as they could run to the northern part of the island and meet the bear demon and his men, even if there were two Half-Step Void Refinement Realm experts among their opponents, they could still scare them off.
“However, it’s just unexpected that I, the dignified ruler of the Divine Space Island, would become softhearted and save others…”
Besides, the people she saved were the female corpse and Wu Yan who were both Ning Fan’s women.
A ray of moonlight turned into silvery smoke traces and vanished out of sight, propelling towards tens of thousands of li* away.
The star island was not huge as it was just hundreds of thousands of li* in total. Towards Yue Lingkong, it would only take her ten teleportations to reach the old bear’s den.
Her speed shocked the Kun Wu Elders, making them to feel slightly unpleasant. The reason was because her speed was not any weaker than theirs! But after confirming that Yue Lingkong was just a Late Divine Transformation Realm cultivator, they immediately let down their vigilance and their lustful desires were rekindled once more .
“Interesting, really interesting! This chick can run fast. But if she wants to run away from our hands, she can just forget about it! Soul Travel Technique!”
The two elders turned into their soul forms and followed right behind them. The speed of their movement technique was slightly faster than Yue Lingkong. After just making a few teleportations, they were already behind Yue Lingkong.
“Hehe, why are you so anxious to run away?!”
After making that mocking remarks, the two elders suddenly vanished in a bizarre flash and appeared once more at the path in front of Yue Lingkong!
Each of them pushed out one of their palms without any hesitation, as if they were certain to inflict heavy damage to Yue Lingkong, causing the latter to submit below their feet!
“Are the both of you courting death?!”
Yue Lingkong believed that she had never been humiliated like this before in her entire life.
Even during the intense sexercise with Ning Fan’s cucumber, it still had a portion of her own willingness.
These two dog-like creatures in front, however, just intended to rape me! How dare they!
She was really infuriated!
On her glabella, two stars with the color of the moon shone violently whereas her complexion grew pale immediately!
“Burying Moon!” With much effort, Yue Lingkong uttered those words.
There was no reply.
The current Yue Lingkong forcefully activated that secret technique. Her action took quite a toll on her. However, the damage inflicted towards the Kun Wu Elders was much more severe.
At the moment the two elders evaded her attack, Yue Lingkong quickly took advantage of the opportunity to run, pulling the distance between her and them.
Furious, the Kun Wu Elders were angered to the point of wanting to kill her.
One-third of their Sea of Consciousness were eroded, causing their spirit sense to be harmed greatly. To them, it was indeed detestable!
“Hateful! So hateful! Originally, we only want to keep you as our human cauldron. However, since you are so ignorant and do not know how to appreciate favors, after capturing you, we will definitely make your life a living hell!”
The Kun Wu elders’ faces no longer had the slightest hint of contempt towards their enemies. They chased the group of women with all their might. This time, with just three teleportations, they caught up with her!
Looking at Yue Lingkong whose combat power was greatly reduced after forcefully activating her secret technique, the two elders felt extremely pleased and hurled their palms at her.
She gnashed her teeth in helplessness. The incoming two palms were difficult to dodge!
“Let’s go all-out against them!” Wu Yan was already boiling with anger.
“Kill…them…” The female corpse’s eyes were also glowing coldly.
However, before the two of them acted, a thick hoarse voice carrying a hint of disdain echoed towards them.
At first, nothing happened as the voice was still far away. However, when the owner of the voice teleported, he was already standing in front of the two palms. By swinging his arm and parrying the incoming attacks with his bear palm, the two palms of the two soul light were immediately crushed!
“I am the master of the star island, Man Shan! The three of them are the wives of my good friend. Who dares to lay a finger on them?!”
The Kun Wu Elders’ eyes widened in surprise.
The bear demon who suddenly appeared out of nowhere was not any weaker than any one of them!
