Chapter: 131

North of the Demon Capital City existed a lake called Shiny Lake, surrounded by lush greenery.

The silver moon hung, reflected on the lake's surface beautifully, its silver light bouncing off, creating a dazzling reflection.

It was night, and normally, the lake's temperature should have been unbearably cold. Yet if one touched it, they would have realized that the temperature was not cold; instead, it was hot.

Deep in the lake, a thousand meters below, a woman hovered there. Her eyes were closed, and she was naked. Threads and strands of cold energy were being released from the bottom of the lake, touching and twirling around the naked girl, whose body released incomparably destructive heat.

The moment these threads and strands of cold energy touched the destructive heat her body was releasing, the heat would dim down slightly.

It seemed like the woman was using the strands of cold energy naturally produced at the bottom of the lake to calm the destructive heat her body released. And from her pained expression, the whole process should have been quite painful for her.

Suddenly, the woman's eyes shot open, revealing a pair of impeccably beautiful crimson orbs, matched with her long hair that reached past her small buttocks and an otherworldly ethereal face; she looked unbelievably beautiful.

The woman looked up with a frown deepening over her small face. Small waves appeared around her as the next second, her body shot up! Like an unstoppable straight arrow, the water in the lake parted as the woman, with a splash, exited the lake and appeared hovering over the surface.

Her hair danced gently in the air as the same destructive flames from before burst out from her body, covering it, before it formed into a set of clothes.

Her face turned towards Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley, and astonishment was evident on her features.

"Someone entered Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley and met Golden Crow?!" Her voice was laced with unhidden bewilderment and confusion.

It was yet not the time for the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley to open itself; the five-year timeframe hasn't passed yet, so it shouldn't be possible to enter the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley.

Even for a second, she did not think that someone had entered the valley forcefully. The barriers were created by the Golden Crow herself. Even for the peak Sovereign, it would be impossible to enter the valley forcefully unless Golden Crow herself permitted the person.

"But the hostile aura itself belongs to the Golden Crow…" So she shouldn't have given the entry.

Destructive and suppressive aura burst out of her body, and Huan Caiyi turned into a shooting star, flying towards the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley at an unprecedented speed.

The closer she got to it, the more labored her breathing became. Until, once she reached a hundred miles of it, she stopped.

Flying in the air, fear was evident on her face as she stared at the huge silhouette of a humongous dragon above the Valley. Despite its aura not being diverted towards her, Huan Caiyi found it impossible to take another step towards the Valley.

She was a hundred miles away from it, yet she felt like the whole world had been placed over her shoulders. She found it incredibly hard to even move her finger any longer.

"W-What is that!?" She shouted, petrified.

For the first time in her life, Huan Caiyi, the Little Demon Empress, felt unprecedented fear in her heart. So much that she dared not move an inch as long as the dragon's silhouette was present over the Valley.

Only when the silhouette vanished, Huan Caiyi found herself losing control over her body, freefalling towards the ground.

She hurriedly stabilized her mind and stopped herself from falling. Her breathing haggard, sweat oozed out from her body, drenching her clothes and making them tightly clung to her body.

Fatigue was visible in her crimson gaze, yet she didn't retreat.

Something or someone has infiltrated the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley and even had a face-off with the Golden Crow. This matter could very much decide the fate of the Illusory Demon Realm. As the ruler of the Illusory Demon Realm, Huan Caiyi didn't find it fit for her to retreat.

She was the Little Demon Empress, and the whole of the Illusory Demon Realm was her domain. Even in the face of death, she would not let anyone hurt or damage it!

This was the promise of her family since ancient times, and Huan Caiyi wasn't going to break it either. If she was so easy to give up, she would have left the throne of Illusory Demon Realm a hundred years ago.

Hence, with determination flashing within her eyes, Huan Caiyi took a deep breath and once again resumed her flight towards the Valley, albeit highly slowly this time.

Two shimmering pure golden eyes silently stared at the cocoon of Profound Energy in front of her.

A pure golden pagoda hovered over the cocoon, spinning with intensity. It hungrily took the energy of heaven and earth, feeding it to the person inside the cocoon.

Unlike before, the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley had entered a surreal silence. There were no thunderclouds above in the sky nor flaming tornadoes; even the profound beasts seemed to have turned silent as if in fear of something.

From the cocoon, Golden Crow could feel a highly dense draconic aura being released, which had covered the whole of the Valley.

Unlike before, where she only felt the bloodline of the Azure Dragon from Yun Che, what she felt from him was now a genuine feeling of a Dragon. Not only this stunned her, but it made her curious.

"Not only has he turned his soul into that of the True Dragon God, but he even changed his bloodline too? How is that possible?"

"Probably because he possessed the Azure Dragon's Bone Marrow." The crimson-haired girl appeared beside the cocoon and answered while staring at the cocoon with a worried gaze. "His body already produced Azure Dragon God's pure blood essence. So when he merged the soul, it must have evolved too, resulting in turning his whole bloodline into pure True Dragon God Bloodline."

"Oh, who would have thought that this noble one would find Heavenly Slaughter God in such a mortal star." Instead of being surprised, the Golden Crow talked with Jasmine with the same arrogant tone she used while forcing herself on Yun Che. "Stories of your death are sung highly within the God Realm, this noble one can imagine the faces of people when they realize that the feared Heavenly Slaughter God is in this mortal star realm, attached with the soul of a mortal to sustain her lifeline."

"Humph. Even if this princess is in such a state, don't doubt when this princess says she can obliterate your existence. This princess advises you to speak carefully lest you find yourself facing the anger of this princess."

"Hahaha, as if this noble one would be afraid of anyone!"

"Not even from the Evil Infant?"

"... Ahem. Heavenly Slaughter God, can you entertain a query of this noble one?"

Jasmine turned her crimson gaze away from Yun Che and looked towards the two pure gold pupils and narrowed her eyes.

"Is it about the Crimson Crack at the far end of the Primal Chaos?"

"So you know about it?" The Golden Crow asked, surprised to see that mortals of this era knew about it.

"Azure Dragon God and Phoenix Spirit asked this princess the same question." Jasmine answered.

When she had revealed herself to Phoenix Spirit and Azure Dragon God, both of them had asked about the Crimson Crack from her. Jasmine was intelligent enough to know that this Crimson Crack must have held great significance for both Phoenix and Azure Dragon God to give Yun Che more than just their bloodline.

Now hearing the Golden Crow's inquiry about it, she did not find it surprising. Only, her curiosity was raised to the peak regarding the Crimson Crack. She wondered why all True Gods have inquired regarding it.

"So that's the case. Hmmm, this noble one understands why they gave so much to Yun Che. Just having the inheritance of Heretic God was definitely not enough for both of them to give up so much." After a small talk, the Golden Crow muttered to herself.

"Very well. Despite this noble one's unwillingness, she is willing to give him the Golden Crow's Origin Blood!"

Jasmine's eyes widened as she stared at nine droplets of Golden Crow's Origin Blood flying towards Yun Che before merging with the cocoon; it greedily ate them as if finding them the best nourishment for its host.

"What is that crimson crack?" Not being able to hold her curiosity, Jasmine inquired.

"Don't want to tell."

"Huh?" A confused voice left Jasmine's small lips as she stared blankly at the pure golden eyes, and a loud laugh reverberated around her.

"Hahaha! This noble one doesn't want to tell, what can you do about it? Kill this noble one? This noble one is not afraid! Hahaha!"

"..." The thought of killing her spirit sounded more and more pleasing to Jasmine's ears.

"But! Allow this noble one to warn you, Heavenly Slaughter God. Dark or Light, both are just opposite sides of the same coin. Both cannot exist without each other. Do not make the same mistake as we did in the past."

Jasmine frowned.

She did not understand what the Golden Crow was trying to say and how all of it was related to the Crimson Crack.

"Someone's here." Jasmine said, looking in a particular direction. "This aura… Seems like it is your bloodline descendants." She said, looking towards the Golden Crow.

"It must be that little girl. She has visited this once in the past, wanting to obtain this noble one's legacy. But this noble one's bloodline is extremely yang, how can a female, a body of yin, inherit this noble one's bloodline?" The Golden Crow paused for a second, her golden eyes looking towards the cocoon that was showing the signs of breaking apart. "But it might be a little different now… Hmmm, right. Hahaha. This noble one just thought of a profound gift for my future heir! Hahaha!"

'This princess does not like whatever this perverted Golden Crow Spirit is thinking…' Her laugh reminded her of Yun Che, and she did not like that at all.
