Chapter 1766 Death Messenger

“It’s useless.” Yao Huang spoke. “He made a pact with death, exchanging his soul for the ability to kill the enemy he harbors a deep enmity towards… I’m curious. How did he visit the Nether Realm in the first place?”

Xian An frowned slightly. She had heard about the Nether Realm before. It was a mysterious place and a final destination for the deceased.

She looked at Yao Huang and asked. “Do you know how to stop it?”

“There is no way.” Yao Huang shook his head. “The laws of the Nether Realm are not something we can interfere with.”

Xian An stared at Yao Huang for a moment and asked. “You don’t care about your butler at all?”

Yao Huang smiled and waved his hand. Instantly, an intense dark aura gathered around Yao Jie’s head, and a miraculous scene appeared before Xian An.

Yao Jie, who was supposed to be dead, quickly regained his physical body. A moment later, he opened his eyes and bowed to Yao Huang. “Thank you for bringing me back, master. I was too careless just now.”

Xian An was shocked. Yao Jie was clearly dead. How could he come back to life?

“Curious?” Yao Huang said with a faint smile. “I can tell you about it. He is a servant of darkness, created by the power of the Primordial Heaven Devouring Devil God. I can bring him back at any moment.”

Xian An furrowed her brow. The power of the Primordial God was beyond her comprehension. No matter how hard she racked her brain, she couldn’t understand or gain insight into it.

“We can start again.” Yao Jie looked at Xian An coldly.

Xian An tightly grabbed her spear and prepared to fight. 𝒍𝓲𝒃𝙧𝒆𝒂.𝓬𝙤𝒎

Meanwhile, Jin Long tried his best to stabilize Master Bai’s injuries. Even though it was useless, he didn’t want to give up.

“Save your strength for the enemy,” Master Bai uttered weakly. “Please help Yun Boy… Don’t let anything happen to him…”

After finishing his sentence, Master Bai’s breath gradually ceased… He departed from this world forever…

Jin Long’s expression turned unsightly for the first time. He knew how close the relationship was between Yun Lintian and Master Bai. He didn’t know what to say when Yun Lintian found out later.

Buzz—

All of a sudden, the space above Jin Long’s head split open, releasing an aura of death that intensified the already frigid atmosphere.

Under everyone’s gaze, a dark figure slowly emerged from the rift. This individual was dressed in a black robe from head to toe, which made it difficult to discern their features.

However, everyone could feel the terror of this person. Even Jin Long and Xian An couldn’t help but shiver.

“Death Messenger.” Yao Huang said in a low voice. This was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

The black figure ignored Jin Long and approached Master Bai’s side. It pressed its dark hand against Master Bai’s body and extracted his soul.

Master Bai’s soul glanced at the figure in the black robe briefly before turning to Jin Long. “Don’t forget what I said earlier.”

Following that, the black-robed figure immediately pulled Master Bai’s soul into the rift and vanished from the scene.

Yao Huang let out a long breath and said. “This must be a figure in the God Ascension Realm.”

Xian An and Jin Long frowned slightly. The Death Messenger was undoubtedly in the God Ascension Realm, as its aura was similar to that of Xiao Ju, Lan Qinghe’s maidservant.

The difference was that its aura was filled with death. It was several times more terrifying than Xiao Ju.

“Does he…?” Xian An frowned deeply. She felt that there was a way to save Master Bai.

“As long as you have the ability to go to the Nether Realm and snatch him back from the clutches of the Death God. Then, it’s not possible to bring him back.” Yao Huang spoke.

Xian An and Jin Long glanced at each other but said nothing. Unless Lan Qinghe came forward personally, it would be completely impossible for them to rescue Master Bai.

“He spent his life well.” Yao Huang further stated. “One exchanged for five. It’s worth it.”

Xian An pointed her spear at Yao Huang and said. “Bring it on.”

Yao Huang shook his head and said. “There’s no point in fighting anymore. You can go.”

Xian An frowned. “What do you mean?”

“I mean what I said.” Yao Huang spoke. “I had no choice but to make a move under the threat of the Decree of Darkness. But now, I am certain that Mo Tian doesn’t dare to use it here.”

Jin Long picked up Master Bai’s body and arrived by Xian An’s side. He looked at Yao Huang and said calmly. “Your goal is to make us stay here. Why?”

Yao Huang smiled and asked. “How much do you know about the Divine Realm?”

Jin Long and Xian An remained silent at Yao Huang’s question.

“Whoever allowed both of you to come here clearly wants to tie you with Yun Lintian’s fate. I can say that this person’s intentions are not good.” Yao Huang looked at the two with pity.

“Explain it clearly.” Xian An said coldly. She didn’t believe that Lan Qinghe would harm her. There must be a reason behind this.

“Don’t you think Yun Lintian’s fate is strange?” Yao Huang asked. “He is clearly unaware of himself and lacks a clear life goal. All he has done so far is follow the path someone set up for him.”

“What I said previously isn’t wrong. He is someone who has everything handed to him on a silver platter. Even if he raises a question, no one can answer why he has to do all of this. He has no choice but to continue eating more in the hope of finding the answer.”

“What are you trying to say?” Xian An was dissatisfied.

“Simple. He is merely a vessel, waiting to be taken away once he has completed his duty.” Yao Huang said calmly. “And those who tie their fate with him will not end well.”

“Is this the reason you easily gave away the Dark Pearl?” Jin Long seemed to have figured something out.

“Yes.” Yao Huang revealed a cold smile for the first time. “Don’t you think it’s interesting when he realizes the truth? To see everything crumble before him. His faith, his life, everything is a lie.”

Jin Long and Xian An immediately felt a chill running down their spines…
