"Then who will take him back to the Li Family?" Wu Qingling said softly.
"It seems I am fated to have nothing to do with this Ancient Gale Tower, so I will take him back to the Li Family!" Lin Xuan looked at the ten-story gate, his expression changing, and after a moment of silence, he smiled slightly and said.
"Alright, then it's up to you, Brother Lin," Ji Hong replied.
Afterward, Lin Xuan picked up the unconscious Li Mingqian and walked down the Ancient Gale Tower.
"Master, we..." A-Da hesitated as he glanced at the ordinary wooden door.
"I want to give it a try." At that moment, the charming Nian Wei, with her rosy cheeks, stepped forward slightly and looked at the invisible doorway, speaking softly.
"Nian Wei, you mustn't..." Xiao Baiyi exclaimed in surprise, but he saw Nian Wei walk in without any obstruction.
"Hiss!"
Everyone was taken aback.
"Prince, it seems this girl has some fortune; she can even meet such a requirement," Fire Spirit remarked in admiration.
Wang Yi was also surprised but soon realized that Nian Wei was kind-hearted and a healer; it was not surprising that she could enter.
"Xiao Xiong."
At that moment, Xiao Baiyi also stepped forward. Hearing Ji Hong's words, he turned back and said, "Brother Ji, do you really intend to give up just like that?" He then stepped forward, but before he could enter, an invisible wave of light swiftly surged towards him. Despite Xiao Baiyi's precautions, he was still struck on the shoulder by the wave and was sent flying back, letting out a muffled groan as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Xiao Xiong, are you alright?" Ji Hong rushed forward to support the pale Xiao Baiyi and asked anxiously.
"I'm fine." Xiao Baiyi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and glared resentfully at the invisible door before saying calmly.
"It seems we are all fated to have nothing to do with this door!" Ji Hong sighed lightly.
However, before he finished speaking, he saw Wang Yi easily walk in.
"What?"
Xiao Baiyi and Ji Hong exchanged glances, both surprised by what they saw in each other's eyes. Dalai Er and Lian Bi were even more shocked; in their eyes, Wang Yi was a ruthless person. Who would have thought he could step through this door that could be called kind? It was truly beyond their expectations.
"It seems I have misjudged you all along, Brother Wang is indeed a person of great fortune!" Dalai Er said with a bitter smile.
"I hope the young master can come out safely."
Lian Bi and Brother A both nodded in agreement and respectfully stood outside waiting for Wang Yi.
At the same time, the moment Wang Yi stepped through the door, he felt a moment of disorientation, as if the ground were spinning. Then he found himself in a simple room.
"After ten thousand years, I have finally waited for you to come."
A serene voice echoed.
He saw a middle-aged man dressed in purple sitting cross-legged on a cushion. His appearance was unclear, very hazy, like a dream or an illusion. Yet this illusion gave him a sense of heart palpitations; it felt as if he was facing a deity, and he sensed that he had no power to resist against this phantom.
"I am junior Wang Yi, paying my respects to Emperor Diao Luo," Wang Yi said respectfully.
"You know me?" The voice of the purple-clad phantom was ethereal but resonated clearly in Wang Yi's ears.
"Who else but you could possess such divine abilities?" Wang Yi replied.
"Ten thousand years ago, I was gravely injured and left with only a thread of life waiting for you. Now that you have arrived, I no longer need to wait," Emperor Diao Luo said.
"Wait for me?" Wang Yi was taken aback.
"That's right. Ten thousand years ago, at the moment of my death, a divine oracle was given, stating that a fated person would arrive here ten thousand years later to receive this item from me." Emperor Diao Luo ignored Wang Yi's shock and waved his large hand. A brilliant golden seal floated out from his bosom and landed in Wang Yi's hands.
"This is the Gods' Seal," Emperor Diao Luo said.
"What... what is going on? Could it be that my rebirth was all arranged by someone? This person must have predicted that I would come here ten thousand years later. If that's the case, it's truly terrifying." Wang Yi looked at the Gods' Seal in his hand, his thoughts racing, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.
"Youth, my lifespan is at its end. I leave you the Nedan, hoping you can lead our human race through this crisis," Emperor Diao Luo's voice was ethereal, like drifting fluff.
"Senior, senior." Hearing this, Wang Yi was momentarily stunned but saw Emperor Diao Luo's ethereal figure slowly fading away. Then a Nedan appeared on the Cushion.
"Remember, a great calamity is upon us. Take the Nedan and leave quickly."
The void echoed with this voice again, and Wang Yi felt a daze in his mind. He soon found himself outside the door.
"Young master, are you alright?" Lian Bi asked joyfully.
"I'm fine," Wang Yi said absentmindedly, shaking his head. However, he was constantly pondering what was happening. He was already certain that someone was manipulating events behind the scenes regarding his rebirth. Moreover, everything he did now was likely being observed by this person; otherwise, it would be impossible for them to have predicted today's events ten thousand years ago.
"Wang brother, what did you find inside?" At that moment, Xiao Baiyi stepped forward to ask.
"I met Emperor Diao Luo inside," Wang Yi replied.
"What?"
"He told me that the Yuan Continent will face a calamity and that the demon race will reappear in the world." Wang Yi continued without acknowledging everyone's shock.
The air fell into a brief silence.
"Impossible! Our six races have sealed the entrance to the demon realm; they cannot descend upon the Yuan Continent," Xiao Baiyi shook his head.
"Is what you said true, Brother Wang?" Ji Hong frowned and said, "If that's the case, it seems we need to hurry back and inform our father to prepare early."
"Nian Wei hasn't come out yet?" Wang Yi asked in confusion.
"No," Ji Hong replied.
At that moment, a green light flashed, and a young woman appeared before everyone. It was none other than Nian Wei.
"Nian Wei, it's great that you're okay," Xiao Baiyi said.
"Mm." Nian Wei nodded and looked at Ji Hong, saying, "Young Master Ji, I met Emperor Diao Luo earlier. He told me that a disaster will occur on the continent, and..." She glanced at Wang Yi, her expression somewhat strange as she continued, "And Emperor Diao Luo said that Brother Wang is the key figure in this disaster. Perhaps he can help save us from it."
"What?"
Everyone was taken aback by her words.
"Impossible! Who is he? How could Emperor Diao Luo say such a thing?" Xiao Baiyi said with a face full of jealousy.
"Nian Wei, is this true?" Ji Hong asked with a frown.
"Mm." Nian Wei nodded.
"Rumbling!"
Suddenly, at that moment, the Ancient Gale Tower shook violently.
"Run!" Wang Yi's expression changed drastically. He moved quickly and rushed down the tower. Ji Hong and the others also changed their expressions and hurriedly followed behind.
Soon, they exited the Ancient Gale Tower. Looking back, they saw the Ancient Gale Tower tremble violently before turning into smoke and disappearing without a trace.
"Let's go!" Wang Yi suppressed his shock and said in a low voice.
After finishing, he headed towards the exit.
The Ancient Gale Tower had already disappeared, and there was nothing for everyone to linger on, so they naturally left the Ancient Storm Cave.
"Ah!"
A piercing scream cut through the air.
"Kill all these humans."
Just as Wang Yi and the others appeared above Wolf Mountain, shouts of killing echoed from all directions.
They saw over a hundred towering figures, standing nearly three meters tall, with dark skin and sharp horns on their heads, resembling neither human nor demon, surrounding them. The leader wore a black robe, obscuring his appearance.
"Kill!" The figure in the black robe waved his hand coldly.
"Demon." Xiao Baiyi exclaimed in shock.
"No, they are not demons; they are humans who have been demonized," Wang Yi said solemnly, his heart sinking. A large number of demonized humans had appeared; he wondered how Song Kingdom was faring and if Zhao Ruixue was alright.
"Kill!"
The demons closed in from all sides.
"A mere Demon General dares to be arrogant; kill!" Xiao Baiyi shouted fiercely as he brandished his sword and charged forward.
"Nianwei, Miss Wu is in trouble," Ji Hong said.
Wu Qingling and Nian Wei both took out their respective weapons and leaned against each other.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a white tiger burst forth from Xiao Baiyi, trampling over ten or so Demon Generals in its path.
"Very good. Today, four of the Six Great True Spirit Families—Qilin, Phoenix, White Tiger, and Zhuque—have arrived. Not one will be spared," the man in the black robe said ominously.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Before his words fell, ten ordinary-looking Demons rushed in from behind him, joining the battle.
"Demon Lords, and there are ten of them."
Everyone's expressions changed slightly; ten Demon Lords meant ten Transcendent Realm Experts, all peak powers comparable to the Ninth Level of Transcendence Realm.
"Wang Yi, you cannot escape. The Demon Lord is already here. As long as you are willing to submit to the Demon Lord and hand over your memories, he will make you a Demon King," the man in the black robe said coldly to Wang Yi. "It won't be long before the Demon Sovereign regains supreme power. At that time, the entire continent will be under our Demon Clan's control. Whether you are from the Qilin Family or anyone else, don't think you can survive. This is your last chance."
"Brother Wang is from the Qilin Family? Why have I never seen him before?" Nian Wei looked at Wang Yi in surprise and exclaimed.
"Wang brother, you are from the Qilin Family?" Ji Hong's expression changed slightly as he asked in confusion.
"If you want your memories back, have your master come to retrieve them personally!" Wang Yi understood upon hearing this; the Demon Lord mentioned by the man in black was Xuan Luo. He had actually known this for a long time but had not dared to believe it. As for his identity as a member of the Qilin Family, it would eventually be exposed anyway; revealing it now was no big deal.
"Kill!"
Wang Yi shouted fiercely, swinging his Sword of Slaughter to unleash a hundred-foot sword energy. Instantly, sounds of piercing echoed as dozens of Demon Generals met their gruesome end beneath his blade.
The great battle was about to erupt!
Ji Hong, Xiao Baiyi, and Wu Qingling all unleashed their family martial arts: Vermilion Bird Fire, White Tiger True Skill, and Hundred Birds Worship the Phoenix. The power was terrifying and simply beyond what a Demon of the Demon General level could withstand.
"Hmph, a mere Demon Lord dares to act arrogantly in front of me."
At that moment, Dalai Er, who had not yet made a move, stepped forward. A wave of energy a hundred feet high appeared before everyone's eyes, containing the terrifying power of Nirvana Power. It surged forth like a landslide or an earthquake towards the Demon, and amidst the rumbling sounds, both the Demon General and the Demon Lord were reduced to ashes, disappearing without a trace.
Glimpse of the Nirvana Realm Expert, so terrifying!
Everyone felt their hearts tremble and dared not meet Dalai Er's gaze.
"Glimpse of the Nirvana Realm Expert? How could there be a Glimpse of the Nirvana Realm Expert here? Did the Demon Lord deceive me?" The figure in black spoke with a trembling voice.
"Trying to escape?" Dalai Er coldly snorted. With a wave of his hand, he immediately captured the black-robed figure, this Demon Lord. The black hat atop his head shattered into pieces, revealing a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance and long eyebrows.
"Zongzhu?"
Wang Yi looked at this Demon Lord in front of him, his expression changing dramatically as he involuntarily exclaimed. He truly did not expect that this mysterious leader of the Demon Lord would turn out to be Liu Bei!
"Brother Wang, do you recognize this Demon Lord?" Dalai Er asked in confusion.
