Demon King’s Pampered Wife - C226 Where Is This Place?(part I)

Actually, when Zi Ling obtained control of her body, she discovered that not only was her body under her control, her own strength was not damaged in the slightest, and she was still at the peak of the early Golden Core Stage. Originally, she had planned to take revenge on him not late, and escape this calamity first.

Bang

After a loud noise, Elder Yan’s body flew out like a broken kite, causing Hong Rui, who was originally relieved, to gape in shock.

Zi Ling lightly swung her arm, and Ye Shan, who had been grabbed by the neck, slammed into the wall. Zi Ling gently swung her arm, and Ye Shan, who had been grabbed by the neck, smashed into the wall.

“You … You, how is this possible? ” Hong Rui stood dumbly on the spot. She had watched Ye Ling grow up and was only at the initial stage of the Xuan Master Stage. How could he lose so easily to Elder Yan?

Elder Yan also spat out a mouthful of blood. However, he was still an early stage Profound General; he wasn’t as bedraggled as Ye Shan. He propped up his arm from the ground and gained a few more insights compared to Hong Rui and Ye Shan.

“Who are you?”

Zi Ling slowly turned around, and her gaze landed on Elder Yan. She laughed softly, “You are not that stupid. But none of this is important, the important thing is that you all have to die today! ”

As he spoke, an ice arrow shot out from the tip of his finger straight towards Elder Yan. Elder Yan lowered his body and rolled, avoiding the attack of the purple silk in an extremely sorry manner. However, he did not stop at all. While he was dodging, he pounced over like a tiger or wolf.

Zi Ling coldly smiled. If she couldn’t even break through her spiritual energy barrier, how would she dare to fight him in close quarters?

Zi Ling really wronged Elder Yan. The opponent was a martial arts expert Xuan Wu, how could he ever see someone as abnormal as her with the protection of spiritual energy. If he didn’t go near her, could he have become a target for her?

However, he did not know that he was already a target. Any target that was farther away would not necessarily come close and be targeted. The purple silk attack easily landed on his body.

He didn’t even need to use his ultimate move. A few ice arrows and a few fireballs were enough to take half of Elder Yan’s life.

He was panting from exhaustion as he fled into the distance. His eyes were fixated on the purple silk, seemingly looking for an opening, but in reality, he was trying to find one that could not break through Ye Ling’s defenses.

Seeing that Elder Yan’s figure had disappeared at the door of the secret room in the blink of an eye, Zi Ling was slightly stunned. She didn’t expect that Elder Yan would run away in less than a quarter of an hour in her hands. Thus, without even looking back, Ye Shan and Hong Rui chased after her.

Many ice crystal lotuses bloomed along the dark path and quickly spread to Elder Yan’s feet. Elder Yan was still maintaining his running posture and instantly became an ice sculpture.

Zi Ling knew that this ice crystal wouldn’t be able to trap him for long, so she didn’t plan on trapping him for long. An enormous fireball condensed in his palm, and the flames burned brighter and brighter. Finally, he jumped out from the purple silk palm and fiercely rushed towards Elder Yan’s figure.

The fireball drew a fiery red arc in the air as it rapidly approached. In her heart, she already knew what would happen to this Yan old man. At this time, a figure suddenly appeared. He stood in front of Elder Yan and didn’t even see his movements before the huge fireball vanished into thin air.

In the instant the fiery light was extinguished, Zi Ling could clearly see his face. Then… Silence and darkness returned to the passageway.

“Why are you here?” Zi Ling took a deep breath, her voice echoing through the long corridor.

“I followed you.” After Qi Hao had finished answering, he strode forward step by step, and the sound of his footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, only until Zi Ling smelled his unique scent did she stop her steps.

“You followed me?” Zi Ling raised her brows. ‘Then why did he only appear now?’

Like a worm in her belly, Qi Hao smiled. “The last time I saw you, you couldn’t wake up. If I don’t give you control of your body, then what’s the point in me appearing? ”

That’s not you, what does life and death have to do with me?

This was the meaning that he wanted to express. However, Zi Ling did not want to think deeply about it. She only said, “You should move aside first. I am going to kill him.”

Qi Hao didn’t move away. “We can’t kill him yet.”

Seeing Qi Hao’s pair of eyes shining within the darkness, she suppressed her emotions and calmly asked, “Why?”

Qi Hao’s eyes were always on her face. Seeing her look away, he was a little disappointed. He knew in his heart that her heart was cold and tenacious, and that she wouldn’t acknowledge him just because of his happiness of dew and water.

He sighed in his heart and said softly, “Don’t you want to leave this place?”

“You have a way?” The purple silk instantly forgot about everything else as a bright light shined in her eyes.

Seeing this, Qi Hao smiled, “Not yet, but we can’t move the people here. Maybe the exit lies with them.”

Slowly calming down, Zi Ling also felt that Qi Hao’s words made sense. This was most likely a fictitious scene. If she was led away by hatred, she might just happen to fall for it. Thinking of this, a chill went down her spine. After inheriting Ye Ling’s memories and experiencing it personally, she had almost treated herself as the reincarnated Ye Ling, wanting to kill Hong Rui and the rest to relieve her hatred. If Qi Hao hadn’t appeared in time, she might have been trapped in the illusion.

Sure enough, the Imprisoning Ice Lotus did not trap Elder Yan for too long. After a “ka ka” sound, Elder Yan pushed his speed to the extreme, and he did not even glance behind him before he disappeared.

Meanwhile, Hong Rui, who hadn’t seen Ye Ling and Elder Yan for a long time, helped Ye Shan out of the secret room. Seeing that there was someone blocking the way, her body stiffened. She was just an ordinary person and her vision was limited. For a moment, it was impossible to tell whether it was Elder Yan or Zi Ling. She could only call out by a fluke, “Elder Yan.”

“No need to shout, he has already left.” Zi Ling endured the evil fire in her heart and told herself that this was only an illusion.

Ye Shan, who had just woken up, fainted upon hearing Ye Ling’s words.

Hong Rui had eaten for decades and immediately recovered from her shock, “Ling’er, this matter was all Elder Yan’s idea. For the past few years, I have treated you well, please let me and Shan Er go.”

Ye Ling did not utter a word. Letting the two off like this, even if it was fake, her anger could not be vented. She looked at Qi Hao and said, “We can’t kill him. He should be able to destroy us, right?”

“Heh …” A melodious laughter carried along with it the trembling sound of her throat, causing Zi Ling’s heart to involuntarily jump. Then, she heard Qi Hao’s next words, “Of course, as long as I don’t die, that’s good.”

When Hong Rui heard this, she almost fainted, but thinking of her daughter, she gritted her teeth and endured.

Zi Ling looked at her and reevaluated Hong Rui in her heart. No wonder she would become the wife of the Ye family as a mortal. At least, this sort of shrewdness and calmness was not something a normal person could possess.

“Ling’er, tell me what you want me to do. As long as you let us go, I will definitely do it.” Hong Rui said while clenching her teeth.

Zi Ling also smiled, “But I haven’t thought about it yet. Let’s talk about it after I’ve thought about it.”

She hurriedly lowered her head so that Zi Ling could not see her emotions. As long as she allowed her to leave this place, she would definitely have a way to turn the situation around and Ye Ling would no longer be able to hold her in place.

Zi Ling couldn’t be bothered to look at her, “Scram. Don’t stand in my way.”

“Alright, I’ll leave now. I’ll leave now.” Hong Rui hurriedly supported her daughter and resisted the urge to run, walking step by step towards the exit of the corridor.

The two of them seemed to be walking slowly, but they did not stop and soon disappeared from their sight.

“Let’s go, we’ll leave as well.” As Qi Hao finished his sentence, he started to walk towards the exit.

Zi Ling stood on the spot for a moment, and finally realized that she had to cooperate with Qi Hao before she could leave, so she quickly followed.

However, as she walked in the darkness and stared at the back of the figure in front of her, her emotions became complicated. He had thought that after that day, they would have nothing to do with each other. After all, Qi Hao had allowed her to recover her cultivation. But she also thought she would never approach him again. Who would have thought that they would stumble upon him in such a strange place?

The sun suddenly shone on her face, and after a moment she saw that the handsome face in front of her was staring at her with those eyes that could drown out the stars. “If I didn’t have a reason to leave, I would rather stay here and dream myself to death. At least I’ll be able to fulfill my wish, right?”

Zi Ling’s eyes flickered. “You don’t need to test me. I also have to leave this place. Moreover, I don’t think you are someone who will be satisfied with the dream.”

“Heh …” Qi Hao let out a cheerful laugh, and his eyes flashed with a bright light. “You know me very well?”

It was as if his gaze contained a suction force, and the purple silk used all of its strength to resist from sinking into it. She hurriedly turned her gaze away and slowly walked past him, softly saying, “Because I’m not stupid.”

Qi Hao’s smile slowly faded, and his tone of voice also became casual. “It seems that you don’t know me well enough.”

After Zi Ling walked out of the passageway, she stopped her steps, no longer continuing on this topic. Instead, she said, “Since this is an illusionary world, then there must be a way to break it. I wonder what sort of rewards you have obtained these past few days?”

Chewie had taken control of her body earlier than she had. She must have been trying to find a way to solve her predicament in the next few days.

Qi Hao looked at the beautiful figure of the purple-clothed woman in front of him. Suddenly, he recalled that day when she was being embraced by him and was as passionate as fire. For some reason, he wanted to tear off her ice-cold disguise.

The purple silk didn’t even hear Qi Hao’s reply. Instead, it turned its head and met Qi Hao’s eyes directly. Those black eyes seemed to ignite with a flame, as if they were on fire.
