Demon King’s Pampered Wife - C220 Difficult to Ascend to Heaven(part I)

From his expression, it could be seen that he was not in a very good state.

From the moment they set foot on the fourth step, everyone’s expression was no longer relaxed. Every movement they took seemed to be fixed on time as they slowly inched forward.

Among the group, there was only one person who stood out the most. It was Ye Shan. Unlike the others, she easily walked past the first young man on the first five steps without any problems. Looking at the young man’s grimacing face, she smiled and once again stood at the sixth step.

At this time, Ye Shan was leading the group up the stairs. The rest of the people were stuck at the third or fourth level, struggling to make their way forward.

The rest of the people below saw that Ye Shan was already standing at the seventh level. Aside from the members of the Divine Profound Sect, everyone was secretly sighing in their hearts, as expected of the little phoenix of the Phoenix Mountain.

Just when everyone was astonished by Ye Shan’s strength and estimated how far they could go, a purple figure slowly approached.

The purple dress from before was already tattered and messy. From the storage pouch on her body, she had put on a purple dress.

The white dress made her look refined, but the purple dress made her look even more mysterious. At this moment, she slowly walked over like a fairy.

Zhao Ruyue, who had been searching for the Purple Ribbon in the crowd, looked around and saw the Purple Ribbon in the distance.

“Ye Ling, Ye Ling, I’m here!” Zhao Ruyue waved her arms as hard as she could, afraid that Zi Ling wouldn’t be able to see her.

Her voice and movements successfully attracted everyone’s attention. They all turned their heads to look at Zi Ling.

Zi Ling’s expression was calm and there was not the slightest ripple in her eyes. To her, those things did not happen five days ago, but five years ago. Hence, she had already forgotten about them.

Although she forgot, it didn’t mean that others could forget. Chu Feng and Lei Yu were the first to turn around. Their eyes were shining as they stared at her.

When Chu Feng saw her walk over gracefully, an extremely bitter feeling spread from the bottom of his heart. He had been searching for her for the past few days, almost turning the sky upside down but still not seeing her. He secretly hoped that she would have a way to hide from him. However, he didn’t expect that she would change into a new set of clothes and stand in front of him within five days.

Unlike him, Lei Yu’s eyes shone with a vicious light the moment he saw her. He quickly stepped forward and reached out a hand to grab her. “Who is that man?”

The current cultivation of the purple silk wasn’t something that Lei Yu could easily catch. However, with a light flash, Lei Yu was able to grab onto nothing. She stared coldly into Lei Yu’s fierce eyes. “What does that have to do with you?”

“What has it got to do with me?” Lei Yu gritted his teeth as he muttered, “I already said that you are a woman that I, Lei Yu, have taken a fancy to. It looks like your memory isn’t that good!”

Zi Ling gently smiled, “Your memory is also bad. You actually dared to hoot in front of me when you were defeated.”

Lei Yu naturally wouldn’t be ashamed of himself because of Zi Ling’s words. He pointed at Zi Ling and said, “Alright. After we leave this place, I’ll see if you, Ye Ling, can flip my palm.”

At this time, Zhao Ruyue, Huang Ying and the others had already approached and stood by Zi Ling’s side.

Zhao Ruyue frowned as she stared at Lei Yu, “You can’t force your way through matters of the heart. Since Sister Ye Ling doesn’t like you, you shouldn’t bother her.” In her heart, Ye Ling was her sister-in-law, so how could she let another man snatch him away? So she winked at her brother as she spoke.

Zhao Yu was forced into a corner by his sister’s gaze. He slowly walked over and nodded at Zi Ling, “Thank you so much for helping me earlier, Miss Ye.”

Zi Ling’s expression relaxed a little and nodded, “It was nothing more than a small effort.”

Lei Yu glared at the purple silk for a moment before turning around and walking up the stairs.

Ye Shan, who was standing at the top of the stairs, heard the noise coming from below. When she finally reached the eighth step, she turned her head and gasped for breath.

It’s her!

Ye Shan suddenly gritted her teeth. She had thought of many different scenarios of meeting with Ye Ling, including her stepping on top of him, looking at him begging, seeing him struggling like an ant, but she never thought that she would become so extraordinary. The few men she had seen before all had their eyes fixed on her.

The Ye Ling in her memories was still as gentle and gentle as ever, but the look in Zi Ling’s eyes was naturally graceful and her expression was not arrogant, but it was as if she possessed an aura that would cause others to look up to her. How was this the big sister from his memories?

Even though she had heard a lot about her in the past few years, and she never considered Ye Ling to be an important competitor, an ant that could be crushed at any time, she suddenly realized that Ye Ling had already grown to such a height that even she couldn’t help but face him.

Ye Shan’s eyes narrowed into a line as a dangerous glint flashed across her eyes. Very good! Since you’ve come here, I’ll make it so that you won’t be able to return!

Zi Ling’s divine sense was powerful, so she naturally noticed the resentful gaze on the stairs. She lifted her head slightly, and her icy gaze shot directly at Ye Shan. When Ye Shan met her gaze, a chill suddenly crept up her back.

At this moment, the corner of Zi Ling’s mouth slightly curled up as she opened her mouth.

When Ye Shan saw the few prominent words on Ye Ling’s lips, she clenched her hand into a fist.

Waiting for me…

From Ye Shan’s point of view, Ye Ling was blatantly provoking her. She waved her hand, and a cluster of ice flames smashed into the Heaven Stairway. The Heaven Stairway began to shake violently, and all the Xuan Wu cultivators started to shake as well.

When Zi Ling, who was standing below, saw this, she quietly withdrew her gaze from the corner of her mouth. At this moment, Huang Ying was beside her ear saying, “How did you provoke Lei Yu? He’s a ruthless character, you’d better stay away from him in the future.”

Zi Ling nodded, reassuring Huang Ying.

At this time, Chu Feng who was standing far away suddenly walked over. He only stopped two feet away from Zi Ling when he arrived two feet away from her. His usually calm eyes seemed to have some sort of strong emotion hidden within them.

Zi Ling slightly frowned, “Senior-apprentice Brother Chu, is something the matter?”

It was not Zi Ling’s fault for her doubt. She did not know that Chu Feng had also participated in the process when she was controlled by the rabbit.

Perhaps because Chu Feng’s aura was too strong, Huang Ying, who was beside him, consciously retreated. Zhao Ruyue’s face turned slightly red when she saw Chu Feng. However, when she thought of her brother, she felt that she could not just retreat like this. Even if she became the brightest light bulb, she would still stand by Zi Ling’s side while enduring her discomfort.

Suddenly, the gaze that had been glued to Zi Ling’s body turned over. Zhao Ruyue’s breathing became sluggish.

Chu Feng expressionlessly stared at her, “This lady, I have some things I would like to say to my junior sister alone.”

These words had already reminded her that she was an inconvenience, but Zhao Ruyue’s thick face couldn’t take it anymore. Her face became red as she let go of Zi Ling’s arm. “Oh … “Then you guys are busy, you guys are busy.”

After saying that, he walked back to his brother, one step at a time.

“Brother, I’m going to die from your anger.” Zhao Ruyue pouted her pink lips in dissatisfaction.

Zhao Yu smiled bitterly, “Miss Ye doesn’t have any feelings for me. I’m just an eyesore.”

“You already admitted your defeat before even fighting? From my sister’s point of view, although Chu Feng is extraordinary, you are not bad too!” Zhao Ruyue constantly encouraged her brother.

Zhao Yu, on the other hand, couldn’t explain it to his little sister. He could only shake his head and bitterly smile.

If he had the power to fight, why would he wait? That Chu Feng would only be better than her in any way and he would not be any worse than her. The two of them were still unmarried couples, but her gaze when she looked at him was clear without a single trace of adoration. Not to mention that she had never even looked at him before.

“Junior Sister, you …” Chu Feng’s mouth was full of bitterness, but his mouth could not finish the sentence.

The more Zi Ling felt that there was something wrong with Chu Feng’s expression, she couldn’t help but ask, “Senior brother, do you have something to say?”

Chu Feng saw her clear eyes staring at him and steadied his heart. Then, he said, “I’ve thought about it. I don’t plan to cancel the marriage contract and after I leave here, I will ask my family to marry you.”

Zi Ling’s eyes widened as Chu Feng spoke. Just as she was about to ask Chu Feng what he was doing? Didn’t the two agree to cancel the engagement? Change what you say.

But Chu Feng clearly did not plan to discuss with her. He only told her his decision because after saying that, his tall body did not stop and turned to leave.

He left behind a baffled purple silk ribbon.

She stood where she was and after a moment of confusion, she quickly threw that matter to the back of her mind. After all, she was not related to the Ye family so the fragile marriage between her and Chu Feng was not something to worry about.

While they were talking, Lei Yu had already climbed up the eight steps, standing firmly beside Ye Shan, who was panting heavily.

Seeing Lei Yu approaching her, Ye Shan snorted and said, “What’s wrong? That sister of mine didn’t give you face? Right… The men around her are each more outstanding than the other. You, Lei Yu, are not the best. ”

Lei Yu was already on top of the fire, so Ye Shan’s words added fuel to the fire. Ye Shan turned to look at Ye Shan’s side face and gnashed his teeth. “Ye Shan, you’ve only just entered the early Profound General Stage. If I killed you here, do you think High Lord Fire Phoenix would know?”

Ye Shan’s expression changed. When she saw the violent and irritable glint in Lei Yu’s eyes, she immediately shut her mouth. She knew that Lei Yu was truly angry and that what he said was the truth.

Therefore, he no longer provoked Lei Yu. Instead, he took a few steps to the side, distancing himself from Lei Yu. But just these few ordinary few steps, had nearly exhausted all of her profound strength. She had no choice but to stop and start recovering her cultivation in preparation for climbing to the next higher step.

Soon there was almost no one on the steps below the fourth step, and most people were stuck on the five or six steps.

Zhao Dagang waved his hand, “Junior Sister Ye, let’s go up too. Otherwise, all the good stuff will be taken away by others.”

Zi Ling nodded and followed the rest of the crowd up the Sky Stairway.

Every step of the Heaven Stairway was still very wide. With so many people huddled together, it didn’t feel crowded at all. The remaining people, with the exception of a few, were all extraordinarily talented, so they all easily stepped onto the first four steps.
