Desperate Love: Rebirth of the Demon King

Chapter 157 Chu Yan's Spirit Control Incident (2)

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man with a very old face, with completely white hair, beard and eyebrows, walking out in a amiable manner.

"Grandpa Lingque, you're here?" When the people from the Yuling Sect saw the old man, they all shouted with extreme respect.

It turned out that this old man was the elder Shangxian Lingque, who had lived for more than 500 years and had the highest cultivation level in the Yuling Sect.

"Junior greets Elder Lingque..." There were uniform greetings all around, which showed that the elderly Elder Lingque was highly respected in the immortal sect.

"Children, get up. In front of an old man like me, you are really just children. Hurry up and get up." Lingque looked at the crowd with eyes as kind as a amiable old grandfather looking at his own grandson.

"Thank you, Elder Lingque..." A group of people stood up in unison.

"Just now you said that all the people in Haiyi Pavilion were controlled by Chonghai Sect. Is that true?" Lingque asked Zhou Ze with a serious expression.

"That's right, that's what Uncle Li said. Elder Lingque, you are highly respected and have lived for so many years, but do you know where this magic power came from? It is said that this was created by the Chonghai Sect." Zhou Ze asked modestly.

Lingque stroked his white beard and guessed solemnly, "There is a forbidden technique in the demon world called the Soul Control Technique. Practicing this technique was once considered shameful in the demon world. The Soul Control Technique can not only control the demon essence of others, but also control their spiritual consciousness. It is unworthy that the magic skills practiced by the Chonghai Sect are related to this forbidden technique in the demon world."

"As the saying goes, the higher the virtue, the higher the evil. If the Chonghai Sect is really practicing the forbidden spirit-controlling technique of the demon world, then everyone here must be fully prepared to find a way to fight back. Otherwise, instead of rescuing Haiyi Pavilion, everyone will be turned into puppets of the Chonghai Sect."

Lingque frowned, his whole face showing deep worry, because his analysis made everyone present start to worry.

"Everyone, don't be discouraged. Perhaps this is just Elder Lingque's speculation. Maybe the Chonghai Sect is just practicing ordinary puppetry?" Huo Ning didn't want everyone to be dejected, so he couldn't help but persuade them.

"What little Huo Ning said is not wrong. Maybe it's just the old man's guess. Everyone should cheer up and not give up before the fight even starts." Ling Que also quickly echoed Huo Ning's words.

"Okay, we must cheer up now. Even if it is really the spirit controlling technique, we are not afraid. As long as all of us immortal sects work together, why should we be afraid of the Chonghai Sect?" Gu Yunnuo also stood up and appealed.

"Senior Brother Huo is right, and Miss Gu is also right. Isn't it just the Chonghai Sect? We are so many immortals gathered together and working together. Are we still afraid of him?" Zhou Ze was also afraid that these people would all run away, so he immediately stood up and said some encouraging words.

Just as everyone was cheering each other on, a sudden voice suddenly appeared.

"That's right, if you were afraid of me, you wouldn't have gathered so many people here." The voice came from far away, and Chu Yan, dressed in a blue robe, flew down from the opposite mountain and stood in front of the many immortal gates without fear.

"Chu Yan? You are quite brave. You dare to come in alone." Huo Ning took the lead and shouted.

"I'm not very brave, but with the support of thousands of people from Chonghai Sect and Haiyi Pavilion, I have become braver without realizing it. Hahaha..." Chu Yan said, and laughed arrogantly.

What he said was not wrong. If he was alone, the people in the immortal sect would not be afraid of him, but he controlled more than a hundred people from the Chonghai Sect and nearly a thousand people from the Haiyi Pavilion. For the safety of those people, they really did not dare to attack him rashly.

"Chu Yan, as a disciple of the Immortal Sect, how can you embark on such a wrong path? If you turn back as soon as possible, this old man can plead with the masters and pavilion leaders to save your life. If you continue to be stubborn, you will surely suffer backlash." Lingque stood up and advised with a look of regret.

"Oh, that's ridiculous. Now that my strength threatens all of your major sects, you come out to persuade me not to be stubborn. Where were you when my Chonghai Sect was bullied by many sects? Why didn't you come out to persuade them?" Chu Yan asked Lingque sharply.

"Alas, it was indeed wrong for the immortals to bully you back then, but you shouldn't have disregarded the lives of your fellow people and practiced evil arts." Lingque said again.

"Elder Lingque, I won't bother with you because of your high moral character and respect. And you should stop talking nonsense." Chu Yan suddenly raised his voice and roared.

"Elder Lingque, Chu Yan is so arrogant. He knows that we care about the lives of everyone in Haiyi Pavilion, so we dare not hurt him. It is better to kill him directly, and maybe Haiyi Pavilion's clamp will be automatically lifted." Huo Ning was so anxious that his eyebrows twisted into knots, pointing at Chu Yan and shouting angrily. When has he ever suffered such humiliation? If he can't beat him, he can always scold him.

"Come on and kill them. Let's see if those people from Haiyi Pavilion will die." Chu Yan simply opened his hands and closed his eyes, waiting for Huo Ning to kill him.

"Chu Yan, just tell me what the purpose of your trip is. Are you here to quarrel with us?" Zhou Ze didn't want to listen to Chu Yan provoking everyone anymore, so he asked directly.

"Of course I'm not here to quarrel with you. The purpose of my trip is to warn all of you. The only purpose of my trip is to bring Yunji Villa under my command. Those who are sensible can go back home. I can pretend not to see it. If you are not sensible, I will bring all of you under the jurisdiction of Yunji Villa." Chu Yan changed his previous anger and threatened with full confidence.

"Arrogant! You are so arrogant! My Yunji Villa has been passed down to this day and has gone through countless ups and downs. How can we be easily hindered by a sinister and cunning person like you! Don't overestimate your ability!" Zhou Ze looked at Chu Yan with indignation on his face and shouted loudly.

He really couldn't stand Chu Yan's arrogant look, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited.

Facing Zhou Ze's angry rebuke, Chu Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a scornful smile: "Haha... since you are so confident, let's wait and see. Let's stop here for today, and I will come tomorrow to continue chatting with you." After that, Chu Yan returned the same way without looking back, completely ignoring the people present.

As Chu Yan disappeared from view, the crowd that had been quiet started to get excited again. Everyone was talking to each other, discussing what kind of mysterious magic Chu Yan was practicing. They were all wondering how to break this magic. They all wanted to be the one who could save Hai Yi Pavilion.

Bai Qiyang sat in a corner not far away with a lifeless expression, staring at the group of people coldly.

"Master Xiaobai, is there really no way to break this soul-controlling technique?" Long Xiao, who had been guarding him, asked curiously.

"I don't know either. It would be great if Taibu Xingjun was here. I could ask him. He is actually quite knowledgeable compared to me." Bai Qiyang looked back at Long Xiao and said shamelessly.

After hearing his words, Long Xiao was speechless for a moment. How could there be someone in the world who would praise him like this?

"Master Xiaobai, we have been guarding here all the time, but we cannot kill Chu Yan. What's the point of guarding here?" Su Jin asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"I don't know either. I only know that Lord Cangmo cares about the Xinyue Kingdom and the young Emperor Jinxuan. The young Emperor Jinxuan wants to protect Yunji Villa, so I have to protect Yunji Villa with him." Bai Qiyang looked at Su Jin as if it was a matter of course and explained.

Su Jin blinked helplessly, pouted his lips, and spread his hands towards Long Xiao, indicating that he had no idea what to do.

Long Xiao didn't know what was the point of guarding here, but he agreed with what Bai Qiyang said. His priest had guarded Xinyue for hundreds of years, guarding His Majesty the Emperor. Now that his priest was gone, he was willing to guard it for him.

"How about we ask our Star God?" Su Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of a brilliant idea, and he looked at Bai Qiyang expectantly and asked.

Bai Qiyang sighed helplessly, shook his head and responded: "Alas, who knows where the old lady Bu has gone now. Maybe she has followed her beloved disciple as usual and disappeared." After saying that, he shrugged lightly, indicating that he was helpless about it.

Long Xiao immediately retorted: "How is that possible? Young Master Helan has been staying with Xiaoyu, and Old Lady Bu has not been with them." His tone was firm, because Yu Xiaobai and Helan Ruofeng left the Lan Mansion.

Su Jin also nodded repeatedly in agreement and added: "Yes, yes, I can also prove that Helan Ruofeng did go to the demon world with Xiaoyu, and my Xingjun definitely did not follow them." He gestured as he spoke to enhance the credibility of his words.

Bai Qiyang sighed again and said, "In that case, let's not worry about where Taibu Xingjun is for now. The most important thing right now is to protect everyone in Yunji Villa and ensure their safety."

"That's what I think. After all, this turmoil is a conflict between immortal sects, and it has little to do with us in the divine world." Su Jin suddenly changed his expression and said, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Su Jin, what are you talking about, kid? The God Realm rules over the three realms and has the duty to protect the human world. What do you mean it has nothing to do with you?" Bai Qiyang's voice suddenly rose, scaring Su Jin so much that he jumped up high.

"Little Immortal Lord Bai, you're going too far. It was you who said we were waiting, and it was you who yelled at me. If you really want to protect the human world, why don't you send a message to notify my Star Lord to come down and help?" Although Su Jin was afraid of Bai Qiyang, he was also a bit stubborn, and he started yelling at Bai Qiyang.

Bai Qiyang didn't expect that a little boy like Su Jin would dare to yell at him like that, and he couldn't help laughing. Then he coaxed her, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, I'll summon your star god to help."

After Bai Qiyang finished speaking, he hurriedly began to use the magic of the divine world to send a message to Taibu Xingjun, asking him to come down to the mortal world to help.

Seeing Bai Qiyang respond so promptly, Su Jin slowly calmed down and sat down on a rock without saying a word.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the God Realm beyond the clouds was extremely solemn. Many priests stood quietly in the magnificent hall, motionless like statues, with serious expressions on their faces.

All of this was due to the news that Bai Ji brought back after returning to the God Realm—Cang Mo actually refused to return to the God Realm! Once this news came out, the entire God Realm was shocked.

Everyone knows that the arbitrary Emperor of Heaven hates others disobeying his wishes the most. He was rejected by Cang Mo and no one knew why he was so angry.

At this moment, the high and mighty Emperor of Heaven was sitting on the dragon throne, his originally majestic face was shrouded in a thick gloom. He frowned, and his eyes were as sharp as a hawk staring at the court officials, as if he wanted to see through their bodies and see through everyone's mind.

Bai Ji, who was standing below, was secretly wondering how the Emperor of Heaven would deal with Cang Mo. He hoped that this time, he would not use such tough means to deal with Cang Mo as he did ten thousand years ago.

After all, Cang Mo belongs to the realm of gods, and he doesn't want to see him really die.

"Bai Ji, take your men down and make sure to bring Cang Mo back." When the Emperor of Heaven said this, Bai Ji suddenly felt like he had seen it before. He said the same thing last time. As long as he could bring Cang Mo back, would he return empty-handed?

"Emperor of Heaven, according to my guess, Lord Cangmo chose to disappear ten thousand years ago. He must not want anyone to find him, and he doesn't want to have any connection with the God Realm anymore. If that's the case, if Emperor of Heaven cannot fulfill his wish, wouldn't it be better to just pretend that he doesn't know he is still alive?" Taibu Xingjun suddenly stood up and said.

Now that Sichen Hall has a new owner and Cangmo has his own life, why do you still want to force him to go back to a place he doesn't want to be?

Taibu Xingjun seems a little confused on weekdays, but he can still see through the essence of things at critical moments.

Now Cang Mo refuses to return to the divine realm even at his death. If the Emperor of Heaven insists on his own way and sends people to capture him again and again, he may end up repeating the mistakes of ten thousand years ago.

The Emperor of Heaven roared angrily: "Taibu Xingjun, are you really senile? As a person from my divine world, Cangmo should return to his place. How can he hide in the human world forever?" With this roar, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky, lightning and thunder flashed, and the whole world shook.

Taibu Xingjun was startled by the sudden roar, his body trembled violently, and he almost lost his footing.

He quickly calmed himself down, took a deep breath, and spoke again, "Your Majesty, what I said is true! Since Lord Cangmo chose to hide his divine aura ten thousand years ago, it shows that he is unwilling to continue to exist in the world as a divine being. Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to show mercy and grant his wish."

However, before Taibu Xingjun finished speaking, the Emperor of Heaven was already furious and roared again: "Taibu Xingjun, stop talking! Get back to your Sichen Palace right now!"

The Emperor of Heaven's roar was even more powerful than before, and it made Taibu Star Lord's ears buzz and his face turn as pale as paper.

With no other options left, Taibu Xingjun could only bow tremblingly, take his leave, and leave in a hurry.

"Bai Ji, take more people with you, and make sure to bring Cang Mo back." The Emperor of Heaven looked at Bai Ji with cold eyes again and ordered.

"Your Majesty, I obey your command!" Faced with the stubborn Emperor of Heaven, Bai Ji had no choice but to obey the order. As for whether he could bring Cang Mo back, he didn't care anymore.

After leaving the hall, Bai Ji saw Taibu Xingjun waiting for him from afar.

"Lord Baiji, how do you plan to deal with Lord Cangmo?" Lord Taibu came forward and asked directly.

"Why should I deal with him? I have never thought of dealing with him. It was the Emperor of Heaven who insisted that he come back." Bai Ji was holding his anger in his heart but had no place to vent it. He was the god of war who protected the world of gods and did not want to deal with these trivial matters.
