Chapter 1744: Found The Flute
Chapter 1744: Found The Flute
Yun Jingqiu’s opponent suddenly used a secret technique, boosting his strength. His body was enveloped in a black aura, shocking the audience watching their match.
Yun Jingqiu’s face was already pale due to the influence of the Soul Dominion Flute, coupled with the pressure from her opponent, causing her mental state to collapse. She fell to her knees, her body trembled violently, and her watery eyes stared at the opponent who was running towards her.
The referee wanted to interfere in the fight even if Yun Jingqiu had to lose the match, but his decision was too slow, and Ling Yun had already appeared in front of his daughter.
The young male heretic stopped on his track and looked at Ling Yun fearfully, but his eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he swiftly lunged toward him to kill him.
Seeing the young male heretic’s eyes, Ling Yun realized that he was also affected by the effects of the Soul Dominion Flute. However, he had no mercy on the young heretic and sent him straight into the void, silencing the audience who had been in a commotion.
Ling Yun turned to Yun Jingqiu, crouched in front of her, and pulled her into his embrace. "Don’t cry, Qiu’er. I’m here; I’ll protect you from those bad guys."
Yun Jingqiu didn’t say anything, buried her face into Ling Yun’s chest, and cried loudly. She had always lived comfortably since she was a child, and her father had always protected her, so she had never been so frightened before.
Thud
Sheng Ming landed on the arena with the unconscious Nu Huang on her shoulders. "The effects of the Soul Dominion Flute greatly affected Huang’er, so I was forced to knock her unconscious."
"I know." Ling Yun scooped both of Yun Jingqiu’s legs and carried her like a princess. He took Nu Huang from Sheng Ming, opened the Yin-Yang Chamber, and brought his two children into it. "Keep an eye on the situation, Ming’er."
"Alright." Sheng Ming disappeared from the arena and joined the other female immortals, searching for the location of the Soul Dominion Flute user.
The female referee held discussions with the sect masters, who concluded that Yun Jingqiu’s match was invalid because of Ling Yun’s interference.
Yu Shuang didn’t interfere with their decision because she knew that Yun Jingqiu didn’t need to prove herself, and she was far superior to many of the competition’s participants. She joins the competition just to hone her fighting skills, according to Ling Yun’s wishes.
The matches continued after that; Ling Yun’s other sons and daughters managed to defeat their opponents. All his family members immediately left those arenas and returned to their resting place, waiting for him to return.

Inside the Ying-Yang Chamber.
Ling Yun had already awakened Nu Huang from unconsciousness. "How do you feel?"
"Terrible, father." Nu Huang sighed deeply. "I thought I could resist the effects of the Soul Dominion Flute, but I ultimately fell under its influence. If Mother Ming hadn’t knocked me unconscious, the flute would have already taken control of my mind."
"You’ve already lost your match, so you can stay here for the time being. If I take you out now, the effects of the Soul Dominion Flute will affect you again."
Nu Huang agreed with Ling Yun, and he closed his eyes to rest. "Father, please bring An Yufei and Zhu Quezi here to accompany me."
"Alright." After picking up the two women, Ling Yun left them with Nu Huang.
"Are you okay, husband?" An Yufei lay beside Nu Huang and hugged him.
Zhu Quezi lay on the other side of Nu Huang. "Are the effects of the Soul Dominion Flute becoming stronger on you, husband?"
"The effect is much stronger than yesterday, Quezi. I lost my mind earlier, but I was lucky because Mother Ming saved me." Nu Huang hugged his two wives. "I’m fine now, but I want you two to accompany me here."
Zhu Quezi and An Yufei did not have a problem with it because Nu Huang was their husband, and they also did not participate in the competition. "Sleep first and rest your mind, husband."
"We won’t leave you alone."
"Thank you."

Ling Yun went to accompany Yun Jingqiu, who was still scared because of the previous incident. He lay beside his daughter, hugged her, and rubbed her back. "Don’t be afraid anymore, Qiu’er. I’m here with you, and I won’t leave you alone."
"Father," Yun Jingqiu’s voice trembled. "The sound of the flute still lingers in my head, and I can’t get rid of it."
Ling Yun sighed. "You don’t have to force yourself to get rid of it; it will go away on its own as long as you stay here."
"Father, hug me and don’t let go of me."
Ling Yun hugged Yun Jingqiu tightly; she nestled into his arms. He could hear her breathing still heavy and irregular, but she was calmer than before. ’That damn Jian Xieshen and Xie Zuzhou! I will definitely kill them if they appear in this domain!"
"Have Mother Ming and the others found the flute user, Father?"
"Not yet," Ling Yun sighed. "That person is hiding like a mole, but I’m sure Huang Lingzhu and the others will find that heretic soon."
"I believe in you, Father."
Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief. "Now, tell me everything that’s on your mind, Qiu’er. I can’t remove the flute’s effects directly, but I can help you by listening to you."
Yun Jingqiu did not refuse Ling Yun’s request and told him everything until she fell asleep in her father’s arms, which gave her a feeling of calm and security.

On the island.
Huang Lingzhu, who had been searching for a long time for the user of the Soul Dominion Flute, finally found it. She immediately disappeared from her spot and went there, followed by Huang Hao and Sheng Ming.
The user’s hideout was in the underground of the Mysterious Heaven Sect, which was covered by several formations. However, these formations were meaningless in the eyes of Huang Lingzhu, who also mastered formation arrays.
The flute user was a female demon with a cultivation at the Immortal Emperor Realm. She was terrified when the three female immortals appeared, and she hurriedly took out an item, but Huang Lingzhu immediately froze her time to stop her.
Huang Lingzhu walked in front of the woman, took the Soul Dominion Flute from her hand, and removed the woman’s mark from it.
"What are you going to do with the flute? Are you going to destroy it?" Huang Hao asked, walking to Huang Lingzhu’s side.
"Ling Yun asked me not to destroy it." Huang Lingzhu threw the flute to Sheng Ming, who immediately caught it. "He wanted to give the flute to Lei Qiuling because she’s a sound technique user like Dongfang Qinzhi, so you can give it to her after this. Even though she is a sound technique user, she must still be careful when she uses the flute because it is not an ordinary artifact."
Sheng Ming nodded in understanding. "If Lei Qiuling masters the use of this flute, it will be easier for us to eliminate the heretics from this domain."
"Yes," Huang Lingzhu agreed with her. "I don’t understand why Jian Xieshen and Xie Zuzhou haven’t appeared in this domain yet. Their subordinates should have already informed them of the situation here, and they should also know about Ling Yun’s presence here. Considering the old devil’s character, he should be eager to fight Ling Yun again, especially after suffering two defeats."
Huang Hao spoke directly. "I think their delay has something to do with Jian Xieshen. After all, that madman hasn’t regained his old cultivation yet, so they wouldn’t dare to act recklessly with Ling Yun in this domain."
"Ling Yun managed to defeat Xie Zuzhou’s avatar twice easily, and the current Jian Xieshen should not be his opponent." Huang Lingzhu looked at the female demon and killed her directly. "The fourth day is almost over, and those two sect masters will definitely organize the matches even more tightly. I wanted to kill them, but Jian Xieshen and Xie Zuzhou wouldn’t appear if they died, so I was forced to hold myself back."
"Do you have any other solutions to free them from Xie Zuzhou’s control?"
Huang Lingzhu shook her head. "I’ve examined their bodies and souls, and they’re completely under Xie Zuzhou’s control. The only way to free them is to kill him, but that’s impossible because he’s hidden his body in the Ancient Devil Domain."
"What if I go to the Ancient Devil Domain?"
"You can’t go there." Huang Lingzhu rejected Huang Hao’s idea. "That will also affect you, and you will die at Xie Zuzhou’s hands if you go to his domain. If you die, Ling Yun will never be able to become the next Primordial Chaos Dragon, and this universe will be swallowed by darkness."
"So, we don’t have any other solution to free them, huh?"
"They’re just mortals, so I don’t care if they die." Sheng Ming was speechless in response to Huang Lingzhu. "We have bigger goals, so we don’t need to think about them. They fell into Xie Zuzhou’s trap because of their stupidity, so they only have themselves to blame."
Huang Hao shook her head and immediately left the place; she was too lazy to argue with Huang Lingzhu because she would never change her decision.
Sheng Ming also left the place before going to meet Lei Qiuling to hand over the flute to her, and she also asked Dongfang Qinzhi to teach her.
"Why are you here, Long Hun?"
Long Hun sighed and appeared in front of Huang Lingzu. "Why must you maintain your selfishness? You have a way to free them from Xie Zuzhou’s control, but you insist on letting them die."
