Chapter 2551 - 2241: Let This Deceit Tide Be My Compensation

Upon hearing Lu Chen’s question, Chu Yuqin said:

"Perhaps it’s not that he doesn’t want to come, it’s that he can’t reach this world."

Lu Chen turned his head to look at Chu Yuqin and asked:

"Why do you say so?"

Chu Yuqin answered:

"After we came out of the Burial Furnace, we kept hunting the Netherworld Evil Emperor, eventually forcing him into a Forbidden Land."

"That Forbidden Land is peculiar, much like this world, a black vortex that only allows entry but not exit."

"And within that vortex is a presence that all Ancestors of the Strange fear."

"Since it can make us fearful, it proves that the Forbidden Land is extremely perilous."

"Even if the Netherworld Evil Emperor feared being sealed by us, he shouldn’t stay inside it indefinitely."

"The reason he hasn’t come out is likely because he’s trapped inside and can’t leave."

A place that makes her, a female Ancestor of the Strange, fearful, should also terrify the Netherworld Evil Emperor, yet he stays inside the Forbidden Land.

Lu Chen said:

"If he can’t leave that Forbidden Land, how does he command other mysterious entities to enter this world and search for your memories?"

Chu Yuqin said:

"Even if he can’t leave that world, he can command other mysterious entities through the resonance of Mysterious Power."

"Mysterious entities can sense each other; it’s not surprising that he can command other mysterious entities."

Lu Chen said: "I see."

At this moment, Chu Yuqin raised her jade hand, infused a trace of Mysterious Power into Zhao Wuxin’s corpse, and checked it carefully.

As Mysterious Power covered Zhao Wuxin’s body, Chu Yuqin’s brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

Seeing Chu Yuqin’s furrowed brow, Lu Chen curiously asked:

"Did you find anything?"

Chu Yuqin answered:

"This corpse contains a power not belonging to this world."

Lu Chen said:

"That’s not surprising, right? Mysterious Power doesn’t belong to this world either."

Chu Yuqin said:

"I’m not referring to this world; that trace of power is neither Mysterious Power nor the Spiritual Power you are familiar with. It’s mixed with a presence that makes me palpitate. It’s somewhat similar to the presence released by the Forbidden Land where the Netherworld Evil Emperor resides."

Chu Yuqin looked down at Zhao Wuxin’s corpse and continued:

"No wonder he didn’t completely become one of the mysterious entities."

Initially, Chu Yuqin thought Zhao Wuxin hadn’t completely become one of the mysterious entities because this world lacked pure Mysterious Power.

The mysterious entities in this world only contain Deceitful Evil, which seems to be a new power formed from the fusion of Mysterious Power and Spiritual Power.

Since the Mysterious Power in Deceitful Evil is impure, Zhao Wuxin, therefore, couldn’t completely become a mysterious entity.

But now it seems it’s not because of this reason, but because the bodies of Zhao Wuxin and these Deceit Demons contain a power not belonging to this world.

That trace of power prevented Zhao Wuxin from transforming into a mysterious entity, turning them into another species.

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Lu Chen fell into deep thought.

It seems their enemy may not be just the Netherworld Evil Emperor.

But now it’s not the time to think about this; they are in the light while the enemy is in the dark, thinking more is useless. The urgent task is to quickly enhance their strength and leave this world.

After a while, Lu Chen said to Chu Yuqin:

"Let’s set the matters of the Yellow Springs Sect aside for now. Let’s go see what’s going on with the Deceit Tide."

Lu Chen sensed that the Deceit Tide hadn’t receded as if waiting for something.

Chu Yuqin raised her hand and collected all the corpses of Deceit Demons present into the Space Ring, then said:

"These Deceit Demon corpses may be useful in the future."

After Chu Yuqin collected the Deceit Demon corpses, Lu Chen and the others flew high into the sky again towards the direction of the Deceit Tide.

Not long later, a vast dark mass appeared before Lu Chen.

In the distance, both the sky and the earth were occupied by mysterious entities and Evil Spirits, like a high wall of black surrounding the Border Wilderness, numbering at least in the hundreds of thousands.

In the high sky ahead of the Deceit Tide, a corpse-ridden mysterious entity looked at Chu Yuqin with a vigilant expression.

The distant figure in Qingyi brought him immense pressure.

Although the other party didn’t release any Mysterious Power, the Corpse Slope Deceit King had already guessed that the terrifying pressure earlier came from that Qingyi woman.

When Chu Yuqin got closer, the Corpse Slope Deceit King proactively saluted:

"Greetings, Holy Venerable. I didn’t know you occupied the Border Wilderness. I’ll leave immediately."

After speaking, the Corpse Slope Deceit King prepared to leave.

Chu Yuqin immediately released the pressure of the Saint Realm, her Mysterious Power instantly enveloping the entire army of mysterious entities, her eyes turning all black.

Sensing Chu Yuqin’s presence that palpitated mysterious entities, all the Evil Spirits present kneeled.

The Corpse Slope Deceit King also kneeled in the air, quickly saying:

"Holy Venerable, I’m under Saint Venerable Bai."

The Corpse Slope Deceit King was not frightened by Chu Yuqin’s strength, after all, they were all mysterious entities, and as Deceit King, he was immortal, plus he had a Saint Realm mysterious entity behind him.

Chu Yuqin directly asked:

"There are no powerful humans in the Border Wilderness. Why did you bring so many mysterious entities here?"

The Corpse Slope Deceit King honestly replied:

"Holy Venerable, we cooperated with the Sky Demon Sect among human forces. They asked us to clear all humans from the Border Wilderness and turn it into a dead zone, while the Sky Demon Sect helps us destroy the Formation of Burial Moon Immortal City."

Chu Yuqin continued to ask:

"Why does the Sky Demon Sect want to turn the Border Wilderness into a dead zone?"

The Corpse Slope Deceit King said:

"I don’t know, Holy Venerable. I’m just following Saint Venerable Bai’s orders to lead the Deceit Tide to clear humans from the Border Wilderness."

Chu Yuqin glanced at the distant wave-like mysterious entities, then said to the Corpse Slope Deceit King:

"From today, all the mysterious entities present belong to me."

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, the Corpse Slope Deceit King was momentarily stunned.

After regaining composure, he quickly said:

"Holy Venerable, if Saint Venerable Bai finds out that I betrayed him, he will surely seal me."

Chu Yuqin immediately released the pressure of the Deceit Saint, coldly saying:

"You fear the Deceit Saint behind you, don’t you fear me?"

The Corpse Slope Deceit King hesitated.

Bai Yexing and this woman are both Deceit Saints, indeed not someone a Deceit King can afford to offend.

Is he truly to side with this female deceit?

Just as the Corpse Slope Deceit King hesitated on his decision, a strong pressure came from behind the Deceit Tide towards Chu Yuqin.

Suddenly, a man’s voice echoed in the high sky.

"Taking my mystery entities, aren’t you a bit much?"

After speaking, a white figure appeared in front of Chu Yuqin.

Upon seeing Bai Yexing, the Corpse Slope Deceit King immediately respectfully said:

"Welcome, Saint Venerable."

Chu Yuqin glanced at Bai Yexing, then said:

"The Border Wilderness is my territory. You sent so many mysterious entities to invade it, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?"

"Consider this Deceit Tide your apology to me."

Bai Yexing coldly said:

"An apology? You have quite the appetite."

Chu Yuqin said:

"Since you’re unwilling, let’s follow the rules of the mysterious entities."

After speaking, Chu Yuqin unleashed the full pressure of the Deceit Saint. Bai Yexing was about to speak when he suddenly felt his Mysterious Power inside seemingly suppressed.

Bai Yexing’s expression changed slightly; only higher-ranked mysterious entities could cause such suppression to lower-ranked ones.
