Chapter 1531: Entering the Devil Domain
Xiang Dingtian might not have thought too much about the little girl, but the little girl had him etched deep in her heart. As she grew older, she kept hearing about him and learned that he was an upright man who could carry the weight of the heavens on his shoulders. It was then that an indescribable feeling started blooming in her heart.
As she grew, she met many handsome and outstanding young men. However, she would always compare them with Xiang Dingtian. As a result, none of them was able to win her heart. One day, she heard of Xiang Dingtian's death. Her heart shattered, and she sank into sadness for a long period of time. She slowly pulled herself back up, but since then, she no longer placed any attention on any other men. It was as though she planned to spend the rest of her life alone.
From Yu Caidie, she had learned of the possibility that Xiang Shaoyun was Xiang Dingtian's reincarnation. Her heart started stirring, and she tried her best to suppress her feelings. But the more she did so, the stronger her feelings became. Eventually, it became her obsession, but that obsession did her good as it helped her break through into the Rebirth Realm.
Alas, Xiang Shaoyun was no Xiang Dingtian. She guessed that he must have long forgotten about her. Furthermore, there was a Yu Caidie standing between her and Xiang Shaoyun. Thus, she had never exposed her identity to him. When she saw how good Xiang Shaoyun treated his other women, she felt extremely unhappy, which was why she slowly became more and more unfriendly to him.
After she suffered defeat in his hands, at the last moment of her life, she finally couldn't help but expose herself. It was a secret she had long wanted to tell him. She hadn't exposed herself just because she was afraid of death.
"Do you really still remember this thing?" asked Yu Huayan with a bleak smile on her face.
As Xiang Shaoyun held the little jade cat in his hand, his expression turned much softer. The nine-colored lotus soul foundation was pulled back, granting Yu Huayan her freedom. With a sigh, he said, "I did not expect that you were actually Little Cat. It has been too long. Even though I have inherited my previous memories, I almost forgot you."
Xiang Shaoyun then smiled and said, "What a surprise that the little fatty has grown into a beautiful queen. As the saying goes, a girl changes 18 times between childhood and womanhood."
"You're the little fatty!" said Yu Huayan in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
Anyone would be shocked to see a queen like Yu Huayan show such a bashful expression.
"Since you're Little Cat, you should know me well. Why are you trying to stop me?" asked Xiang Shaoyun.
"I-I have no choice!" Yu Huayan gave a vague reply. She definitely wouldn't admit that she had done it out of jealousy.
"Forget it. Since you're Little Cat, I'll let this slide. But don't even think about standing between me and Caidie. I will be very unhappy if you do," warned Xiang Shaoyun seriously as he withdrew the Imperial Nether Domain.
"Overlord, are you fine?" Yu Caidie asked when she saw Xiang Shaoyun reappearing.
"I'm fine. Everything is fine after talking it out," said Xiang Shaoyun nonchalantly.
Expression gloomy, Yu Huayan said, "I won't take part in this anymore. However, those old fogeys in the clan definitely won't let this rest. I don't know what agreement they reached with the Di Clan for them to be so adamant on sending Caidie over to the Di Clan."
"If they dare do so, I'll make sure they'll regret it," said Xiang Shaoyun murderously.
Yu Huayan trembled when she sensed his thick killing intent. She didn't doubt Xiang Shaoyun's words as she had just experienced what he was willing to do not too long ago.
That nine-colored lotus soul foundation was a terrifying divine tool. It seemed to have the nine profundities etched upon its petals. With the lotus, even a regular God would be helpless. Additionally, his Death Eyes were also similarly terrifying.
If Xiang Shaoyun had a higher cultivation level, very few people would be able to contend against him. Just as everyone thought that the episode would end there, the Di Clan people arrived.
However, Eunuch Dong didn't go after Xiang Shaoyun immediately. He had his own plans. He had long told the five people he brought that their true mission was to bring Yu Caidie back to the Di Clan. He would personally deal with Xiang Shaoyun.
Of course, he wouldn't fight Xiang Shaoyun out in the open, as he definitely didn't want to face the lord guardian backing Xiang Shaoyun. If the lord guardian was to get involved, even the entire Di Clan would suffer.
"Little bastard, I'll wait until you're alone. That will be the time you die," muttered Eunuch Dong with a grim smile on his face.
As for Xiang Shaoyun, he was still unaware that someone was here for him. He was busy stealthily heading to the Devil Domain's entrance. He aimed to assassinate several Devil Gods. It would be even better if he could kill those from the Diabolic Dragon Clan. Only then would he be able to sufficiently frighten the devils.
The Invisible Nether was the perfect ability for concealing himself, and with it, he managed to go through the entrance without alerting any devils. The moment he entered the Devil Domain, he was met with the sight of an unending current of devils. There were a large number of devils of different cultivation levels. Fortunately, the entrance wasn't large enough for all of the devils to go through at once. Otherwise, the Dusk Dynasty would have already been reduced to a land of death.
The diabolic dragon devils were also among the devils and were personally controlling the traffic and deploying the devils against the humans. Fortunately, these devils weren't as familiar with military tactics as humans were. Otherwise, the devil army would probably be even stronger than now.
"With so many devils around, some will definitely have the ability to detect me. I need to make my move as soon as possible," muttered Xiang Shaoyun to himself as he started searching for a target.
Before long, he set his sights on Xie Gong in the distance. At this time, Xie Gong had returned to his human form, making it much easier for Xiang Shaoyun to recognize him. Xiang Shaoyun hurriedly rushed over as he thought to himself, He has a Devil God guarding him. If I can kill both of them, it will cause considerable panic among the devils. Perhaps it will even slow their advance!
Xiang Shaoyun advanced carefully, hiding his entire presence. He even stopped breathing.
"Chi Duo, are there any updates from the Imperial Nether Clan?" asked Xie Gong as he looked at the ugly old man beside him.
The old man was none other than the Devil God who had almost killed Xiang Shaoyun. He was an arrow dragon devil, and the Arrow Dragon Clan was one of the Diabolic Dragon Clan's closest allies.
"Not yet. Recently, the Imperial Nether Clan and the Undying Devil Clan have been becoming closer to each other. They don't seem to care that much about us anymore," said Chi Duo.
"Hmph. Just wait until we conquer the dominion and gain enough strength. Then, even those two clans would have to bow before us," said Xie Gong coldly.
While he was speaking, an unseen disaster approached.
