Stellar Transformation-Chapter 411 - 13 episodes 31 - s How to escape?
Qin Yu felt a shock in his heart as he witnessed this scene; the "Liu Yuan Illusion Array" had been pushed to its limit, far from the state it was in before, definitely rendering the safe path inaccessible. Most importantly... Outside, the group of experts led by the Peng Demon Emperor weighed heavily on Qin Yu’s mind.
"How could this be? How could the Peng Demon Emperor have discovered it?" Qin Yu wondered.
"Could it be that the broken Soul Jade Scroll of the slain Imperial Guard was found?" Qin Yu silently speculated, "That shouldn’t be the case. They wouldn’t constantly check if a Soul Jade Scroll is broken. They typically check once a day; how could they have discovered it so quickly?"
Even now, Qin Yu had not figured out what was wrong with his plan.
"Big Brother." Hei Yu stood beside Qin Yu, frowning as well, "How did the Peng Demon Emperor and his group get here so quickly? If Ao Ku had used Demon Recognition to detect us, you should have noticed, right?"
Qin Yu nodded.
Indeed, if the other side had used Demon Recognition, he would have definitely noticed.
"Moreover, the Peng Demon Emperor and Bai Feng and their three are here, obviously prepared." Qin Yu remained very calm in his heart, thinking that as long as he could rescue Bai Xin, he would be successful. What did it matter if they could not leave the Liu Yuan Illusion Array?
The three brothers could simply retreat into the Jiang Lan Realm, what could the Peng Demon Emperor do to them then?
"Big Brother, after rescuing Sister Bai Xin, I have no more requests. Even if we can’t escape today, we might as well enter the Jiang Lan Realm and slowly cultivate. Let the Peng Demon Emperor do what he wants outside... After our cultivation reaches the Divine World, we will deal with him properly," Hei Yu telepathically communicated to Qin Yu.
"Well said, haha..."
Qin Yu suddenly looked up and burst into laughter, followed by Hei Yu’s hearty laughter, which spread from the top of Yellow Lion Mountain in all directions.
"You’re still laughing?" The Eighth Level Demon Emperor Bai Feng sneered from outside the array.
Qin Yu and Hei Yu both smiled, as the world of Immortals, Demons, and Beasts held no great appeal for the three brothers, although deep down they still desired to explore some miraculous places, they didn’t care even if they didn’t go.
"The one in golden clothes, you must be the Peng Demon Emperor," Qin Yu said with a smile to the Peng Demon Emperor outside the array.
"Impudent!"
Ao Ku, Bai Feng, Liu Tu, and the other few Demon Emperors behind the Peng Demon Emperor shouted almost simultaneously.
"Shut your mouths," Qin Yu said indifferently. "I am speaking to the Peng Demon Emperor, what business is it of yours?" Qin Yu was still in a very relaxed mood at the moment, curious to see what kind of tricks the Peng Demon Emperor could play.
"You..." The Demon Emperors, including Ao Ku, were instantly enraged.
The Peng Demon Emperor raised a hand, and the other Demon Emperors fell silent, still glaring furiously at Qin Yu.
With his emotionless eyes, the Peng Demon Emperor looked at Qin Yu, "Are you Qin Yu? The lucky youngster who obtained the Ten Thousand Beasts List and the Mysterious God Scroll, and who also used the Ten Thousand Beasts List to kill a large number of Immortal Emperors under Emperor Yu?"
"Exactly." Qin Yu looked straight at the Peng Demon Emperor.
With the level of Qin Yu’s soul realm, assisted by the Meteor Tear, he was able to clearly see the facial features of the Peng Demon Emperor. What most caught Qin Yu’s attention were the emperor’s eyebrows, sharp as swords, and his icy gaze, which allowed Qin Yu to make some judgements about him.
Such people were usually extremely ruthless and merciless, the kind who preferred to betray the world rather than to be betrayed by it.
"Peng Demon Emperor, you seem to know quite a bit about me. Could it be that you also wish to obtain the Ten Thousand Beasts List and the Mysterious God Scroll?" Qin Yu said with a smile.
"Mysterious God Scroll." The Peng Demon Emperor sneered, "The Mishen Palace holds no allure for me, its treasures are nothing compared to the Inheritance Treasure of the Peng Demon Emperor. As for the Ten Thousand Beasts List... Haha, I know it contains three Demon Emperors, but looking at the worlds of immortals, demons, and spirits, other than the Dragon Emperor and the Great Ape Emperor, who dares to claim as my match?"
"Is that true?" Qin Yu challenged.
"That is natural," The Peng Demon Emperor replied indifferently.
"And what about Emperor Ni? The Green Emperor?" Qin Yu asked with a light smile. The Peng Demon Emperor’s face changed slightly, and Qin Yu continued, "And the legendary Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm?"
The Peng Demon Emperor’s eyes flashed like lightning, staring at Qin Yu, "I did not expect you to be so well-informed. Emperor Ni is a phoenix spawned by the heavens and earth, and she has reached the Ninth-level as a Demon Emperor. Even in peril, she can transform into flames, making her quite difficult to kill... but I can still gravely injure her. As for the Green Emperor, I truly don’t understand him, and I normally don’t consider those from the Dark Star Realm at all."
"You don’t consider them?" Qin Yu frowned.
"People from the Dark Star Realm seldom interfere in the affairs of the outside world. What do I have to fear? Even if I were to act... those Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm are roughly equivalent to our Three Demon Emperors in the Demon World," the Peng Demon Emperor stated calmly.
Qin Yu was shocked. It seemed that the Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm were indeed formidable figures.
"Qin Yu, why mention all these? Does your Ten Thousand Beasts List have Emperor Ni? The Green Emperor? The Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm? Haha... You don’t, and so today your death is inevitable. Of course, you can try to flee to that Qingyu Immortal Mansion, but if Emperor Yu, that fool, can’t break through a mere Immortal Mansion, I don’t believe I can’t either," The Peng Demon Emperor was full of confidence.
The smile on Qin Yu’s face was brilliant.
The Qingyu Immortal Mansion?
Till now, the people of the immortal, demon, and spirit worlds still thought that he was hiding in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion; how could they know that he was actually in the unparalleled ’Space Divine Artifact’—the Jiang Lan Realm! Even when Emperor Yu and Emperor Xuan teamed up with the Unrivaled Jing Sword, they couldn’t affect the Jiang Lan Realm in the slightest. Even if the Peng Demon Emperor were ten times stronger, he likely couldn’t shake the Jiang Lan Realm.
"Ah, Peng Demon Emperor, I am curious, how did you discover my location? Seeing the large group you’ve assembled, it seems you came prepared," Qin Yu inquired.
Even if he were to enter the Jiang Lan Realm for cultivation, he at least needed to clear up this issue first.
"Are you curious?"
The Peng Demon Emperor laughed, Ao Ku, Bai Feng, and Liu Tu also laughed. Then, turning his gaze to Sister Bai Xin, the Peng Demon Emperor said lightly, "Qin Yu, look, Sister Bai Xin and Hei Yu are truly struggling to part from each other."
Qin Yu turned his head.
At that moment, Bai Xin was talking to Hei Yu. Hei Yu looked towards Qin Yu and said with a smile, "Big Brother, I’ve already broken the Restriction within Sister Bai Xin’s body."
"Bai Xin, you have about ten seconds left; make the most of it and have a good chat with your dear brother. If you’re too late, you’ll never have another chance in this lifetime," the Peng Demon Emperor said with a light smile, his voice chilling Qin Yu and Hei Yu to the core.
Hei Yu was furious yet amused as he looked at the Peng Demon Emperor, "Peng Demon Emperor, ten seconds? Dream on. Do you think you have a chance to kill?"
Peng Demon Emperor laughed and did not answer.
"Little Yu," Bai Xin turned Hei Yu’s face towards herself, smiling blissfully, "Let sister look at you."
"Sister Bai Xin," Hei Yu felt that something was not quite right, a sense of panic rose in his heart.
Qin Yu also felt a stifling sensation in his heart, as if there was something he hadn’t anticipated.
Demon Essence Power surged through her body, Bai Xin’s skin regained its former delicateness, and her face restored its previous beauty, her beautiful eyes stared at Hei Yu, always with a hint of a smile. She seemed very happy, extremely happy.
"Sister Bai Xin, what’s wrong with you, what exactly is wrong? Tell me?" Hei Yu urgently asked.
Hei Yu and Qin Yu had never imagined that Bai Xin would become a spiritual beast of the Peng Demon Emperor, as becoming a Spiritual Beast required her willing consent, and they certainly did not think Bai Xin would willingly become the other’s Spiritual Beast.
"Don’t ask," Bai Xin said with a smile, shaking her head and just gazing at Hei Yu, as if she wanted to etch his face in the deepest parts of her soul, to never forget.
"Ten breaths’ time, at least ten breaths’ time, Little Yu was mine," Bai Xin felt a wave of relief in her heart.
"Time is up," the voice of the Peng Demon Emperor rang out.
Qin Yu and Hei Yu both felt an ominous feeling, and at that moment, Bai Xin, who was in Hei Yu’s arms, trembled slightly, her pupils began to dilate, but a serene, blissful smile remained on her face, as if she was sleeping.
Even in death, Bai Xin did not tell Hei Yu that she liked him.
"Sister Bai Xin, Sister Bai Xin..." Hei Yu shouted in panic, but Bai Xin appeared to be sleeping, only she would never wake up, Hei Yu’s demon recognition had discovered Bai Xin was dead, he just refused to believe it.
"Sister Bai Xin!!!"
The sound of Hei Yu’s grief and pain resounded, and even Qin Yu standing nearby felt a pang in his heart. Qin Yu suddenly turned his head to look outside the array, where the Peng Demon Emperor had a smirk of triumph on his face: "How could Bai Xin become your spiritual beast?"
By this point, if Qin Yu still couldn’t guess, he would truly be a fool. Under such circumstances, Qin Yu simply couldn’t think of another possibility for Bai Xin’s death.
"You finally guessed it," the Peng Demon Emperor said with a faint smile, "You must also understand why my men arrived here so timely."
Qin Yu’s face was stern.
Bai Xin was the Peng Demon Emperor’s spiritual beast, and when Hei Yu first transmitted messages through demon recognition with Bai Xin, the Peng Demon Emperor probably already knew. At that time, he directly notified his subordinates and used instantaneous movement to get here. All was now clear.
Yet Qin Yu still wondered... why would Bai Xin willingly become the Peng Demon Emperor’s spiritual beast?
"Peng Demon Emperor, I want you to die!!!" Hei Yu glared at the Peng Demon Emperor, his voice emerging through clenched teeth, filled with endless murderous intent.
"I want you dead too, you little mongrel!" the Peng Demon Emperor coldly stared at Hei Yu, "But don’t be in a hurry, this time I definitely won’t make any mistakes, and will capture each of you, especially you, you little mongrel, Hei Yu."
"Your Majesty, the people have all rushed here," Ao Ku suddenly said respectfully, as a group of Demon Emperors flew from a distance to the Peng Demon Emperor’s side.
A cruel smile appeared on the face of the Peng Demon Emperor, "Set up the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array immediately, completely encircling the area covered by the Liu Yuan Illusion Array. No matter how Hei Yu and his group try to escape, they’re definitely within the Liu Yuan Illusion Array."
Origin Locking Refining Fire Array?
Upon hearing this name, Qin Yu felt a pang in his heart.
"Qin Yu, the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array is set up by sixteen Demon Emperors, among whom four are Seventh Level Demon Emperors. To break this Origin Locking Refining Fire Array, you nearly need the power of a Ninth Level Demon Emperor. Right... Ao Wuxu from your Ten Thousand Beasts List should be able to break it," said the Peng Demon Emperor with a faint smile, "You might as well let him come out."
Qin Yu gradually calmed down.
"Little Black, don’t be sad. We’re not strong enough right now, and we’re no match for the Peng Demon Emperor. He possesses an Inheritance Treasure, and in the realms of immortals, demons, and demons, killing him is almost an impossible task," Qin Yu conveyed consolingly, "We have the Jiang Lan Realm, let’s not worry about any Origin Locking Refining Fire Array. Let’s just enter the Jiang Lan Realm and cultivate properly. Once we reach the Divine World, we’ll settle accounts with this Peng Demon Emperor."
Hei Yu was holding Bai Xin’s corpse.
"Big Brother, take Sister Bai Xin’s corpse into the Jiang Lan Realm, and when I return to the Jiang Lan Realm, I’ll give my sister a proper burial," Hei Yu’s deep, hoarse voice echoed, evoking a bad feeling in Qin Yu. From the hoarseness in Hei Yu’s voice, he could feel Little Black’s raging sorrow. With a thought, Qin Yu immediately took Bai Xin’s corpse into the Jiang Lan Realm.
Hei Yu lifted his head, glaring coldly at the Peng Demon Emperor and his group, while transmitting, "Big Brother, I don’t wish to return to the Jiang Lan Realm just yet. Today, I must kill one of them."
"Don’t be reckless," Qin Yu also transmitted back.
Hei Yu simply shook his head, not responding.
Helplessly, Qin Yu knew Little Black very well, having grown up together with him. Hei Yu’s temperament was also very clear to Qin Yu; once he resolved to do something, he would definitely do it... this temperament was very much like Qin Yu’s own.
"Hei Yu, don’t forget you still have Bai Ling, and Hei Tong. I can step back and not force you into the Jiang Lan Realm for now, but when the danger comes, whether or not you have killed anyone, you must return to the Jiang Lan Realm," Qin Yu stared at Hei Yu.
To take someone into the Jiang Lan Realm, they must not resist. Otherwise, Qin Yu would have already taken Hei Yu into it directly, as that would have been the safest method.
"Alright," Hei Yu responded.
"Your Majesty, the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array has been set up," a Demon Emperor respectfully reported.
The Peng Demon Emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Bai Feng, Liu Tu, Ao Ku, you three follow me into the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array. These two lads haven’t entered the Qingyu Immortal Mansion yet, it seems they still want to fight against us. Let’s fulfill their wish."
The unique light shield of the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array cut through one third of Yellow Lion Mountain, with the summit of Yellow Lion Mountain entirely within it.
The light shield of the Origin Locking Refining Fire Array temporarily disappeared, and led by the Peng Demon Emperor, three Eighth Level Demon Emperors—Bai Feng, Liu Tu, and Ao Ku entered quite boldly. Then, the light shield restored itself to normal, the Peng Demon Emperor stood with folded arms, "Ao Ku, go deactivate the Liu Yuan Illusion Array. Ao Ku, Bai Feng, Liu Tu, the three of you handle Hei Yu. As for me... I’ll play with that Qin Yu."
Bound by an oath, the Peng Demon Emperor also did not dare to kill Hei Yu by himself; however, he commanded three of his lieutenants to attack simultaneously. It would be strange if Hei Yu could resist.
(Chapter two ends here, and there’s still a third Chapter today, which will delve into Hei Yu’s origins— likely updated around 10:30 PM!)
