After Defying the Villain's Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!-Chapter 288
Chapter 288
The exit of the Mysterious Ice Realm is located within Azure Cloud City.
Unlike Cold Realm City, Azure Cloud City is situated among ancient forest paths, with spring-like weather all year round and the fragrance of flowers and birdsong.
The lord of Azure Cloud City is named Meng Lang, who is over fifty years old and has a corpulent body and a potbelly.
At this moment, inside the lord’s mansion.
Meng Lang stands in the center of the great hall, head bowed, his fat hands with nowhere to rest, and his head full of cold sweat, all of which are enough to prove…
Right now, he is in a panic!

His panic stems from two things.
Firstly, Meng Lang and the lord of Cold Realm City, Meng Hong, are brothers.
More than ten days ago, he learned that Meng Hong was half-mad, behaving erratically.
What exactly happened in Cold Realm City?
Since the content of Meng Hong’s messages was all nonsensical, Meng Lang had no way of knowing.
But he was certain that Meng Hong’s madness must be because of Jiang Chen!
After all, the rumor that ‘wherever Jiang Chen goes, madness follows’ is well-known by now.
And now, Jiang Chen has entered the secret realm.
This also means that once Jiang Chen leaves the secret realm, he will arrive in Azure Cloud City.
By then, the entire Azure Cloud City might follow in Cold Realm City’s footsteps, with numerous mad cultivators emerging, and he, the city lord, might not escape unscathed!
Upon learning all this, Meng Lang’s first reaction was to shut down the teleportation array.
But he didn’t dare.
Because in addition to Jiang Chen, there were many other prodigies in the secret realm!
Locking all these prodigies in the secret realm would undoubtedly provoke the wrath of many sects.
Since becoming the lord of Azure Cloud City, Meng Lang had always been walking on thin ice, extremely cautious, and he didn’t want to make enemies with many sects for no reason.
And just as Meng Lang was about to take the risk and leave the mansion to avoid the storm…
The second reason that made him panicked occurred.
More than ten days ago, a woman arrived in Azure Cloud City carrying a red paper fan and exuding a strong ghostly qi wherever she went.
Upon hearing this news, Meng Lang was on high alert.
He knew very well that a ghost that could appear in broad daylight and had a solid ghostly body was definitely not to be trifled with.
He wanted to stop this female ghost from entering the city, but it was too late.
After paying a sufficient amount of spirit stones, the female ghost had already entered the city.
Meng Lang led a group of guards to intercept her, but he recognized at a glance that this ghost was none other than the ghost lord of Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss, Su E!
Su E was at the Nirvana realm, beyond Meng Lang’s ability to contend with, so he could only offer a forced smile and respectfully invited Su E to rest at the lord’s mansion.
The good news was since arriving in Azure Cloud City, Su E seemed to be waiting for something and rarely went out, which allowed Meng Lang to breathe a sigh of relief.
But the bad news was after Su E, the Sword Ancestor of Seven Luminaries Sword Pavilion and the Buddha Old Ancestor arrived in succession.
Meng Lang couldn’t contend with these two either, so he had to similarly offer forced smiles and invite them both into the lord’s mansion.
Then… after the Seven Luminaries Sword Ancestor and Buddha Old Ancestor met Su E, they immediately wanted to fight.
It took a lot of pleading and begging from Meng Lang to stabilize the situation.
He knew very well that if it weren’t for the fact that he was the city lord appointed by the Imperial Dynasty, they would definitely fight.
The aftermath of their battle could have directly destroyed Azure Cloud City.
Meng Lang thought that was the end of it, but it was actually just the beginning.
A few days later, two Old Ancestors from Myriad Dao Demon Sect arrived, entering the lord’s mansion uninvited, and nearly started a fight with the two righteous Old Ancestors.
Meng Lang once again pleaded and begged, barely managing to stabilize the situation.
It was then that he finally understood why so many powerful figures had gathered in Azure Cloud City.
It turned out that the two righteous Old Ancestors and the three demonic bigwigs had left Cold Realm City after a battle, unable to determine a victor, and went their separate ways.
Su E came here to wait for Jiang Chen.
The emergence of myriad ghosts was overwhelming, and there were many instances of ghosts devouring people.
She didn’t want to be hindered by the righteous path again, so she came alone.
The Seven Luminaries Sword Ancestor and the Buddha Old Ancestor came here to wait for the prodigies of their respective sects.
The reason for the arrival of the two Old Ancestors from Myriad Dao Demon Sect was naturally to take away Nangong Jiuxi, who had left the sect without permission.
Under normal circumstances, such a task of welcoming the sect’s prodigies would not require two Old Ancestors to personally come.
But this time, the Mysterious Ice Realm was extremely abnormal.
Firstly, various incidents proved that wherever Jiang Chen appeared, abnormalities would follow.
Secondly, even the Old Ancestors outside the secret realm could feel the thunderstorms in the sky and the violent aura of the demonic beasts within the realm.
The prodigies were the treasures of their respective sects, and since they had nothing better to do, the Old Ancestors specially came for them.
In the past, Meng Lang lived a comfortable life as the lord of Azure Cloud City.
But ever since these big figures all came running, he had lost several pounds!
When the big figures met and engaged in verbal sparring, Meng Lang had to intervene with extreme humility to prevent the situation from escalating further.
When the righteous and demonic bigwigs boasted about each other’s strengths, he had to act like a fool, constantly agreeing without overdoing it, lest he upset the other party!
Even their daily needs were personally taken care of by him!
The reason for this was not that no one else could do it, but that he didn’t trust anyone else!
He was just worried that if these people got upset, they would destroy his Azure Cloud City.
How difficult were those days?
But Meng Lang could never have imagined that even more difficult days were yet to come.
A few days ago, Jiang Chen’s protectors, Chen Sheng and Xiao Hongyi, arrived and entered the lord’s mansion without invitation.
Chen Sheng was once one of the three ancestors of Myriad Dao Demon Sect, and he didn’t expect to meet his former brothers here.
The three of them immediately embraced and wept, lamenting the changes of time and the impermanence of life.
Their crying lasted for three days and three nights.
It startled the cultivators and mortals in Azure Cloud City, who thought there was a ghost in the city!
On the fourth night, the Seven Luminaries Sword Ancestor and the Buddha Old Ancestor fed up with the noise, complained a few words, only to have Chen Sheng and the others roll up their sleeves, ready to fight!
Helplessly, that night Meng Lang rushed over without even putting on his shoes to mediate…
During the mediation, he didn’t even know who slapped him several times…
What a frustrating role to play as a grandson!
And just yesterday, good news came.
Many cultivators who had entered the Mysterious Ice Realm began to leave one after another, appearing in Azure Cloud City.
When Meng Lang heard this news, he was so excited he almost cried.
But another piece of news struck him like lightning.
Jiang Chen!
This eldest senior brother of Jiuyan Demonic Sect, the sole son of the Jiang Family, had almost slain all the righteous path prodigies within the secret realm!!
Even more shocking was that Jiang Chen was also a Human Sacred Body!
And after hearing this news.
The Seven Luminaries Sword Ancestor was furious, opened his sword case, and summoned the divine-grade spirit sword of the Seven Luminaries Sword Pavilion, swearing to capture Jiang Chen and bring him back to the Seven Luminaries Sword Pavilion to endure the punishment of a thousand swords piercing the heart!
At this moment, the spirit sword was still suspended in the sky above Azure Cloud City, emitting a deafening sword cry.
The Buddha Old Ancestor was also uncontrollably angry, like a wrathful Vajrapani, so angry that he couldn’t even properly condense his golden body for a while.
The two wanted to take action against Jiang Chen, and naturally, Su E would not stand by and watch.
Because of Chen Sheng, the two Old Ancestors from Myriad Dao Demon Sect also planned to lend Jiang Chen a hand.
As a result, at this moment, the bigwigs glared at each other inside the vast lord’s mansion, their mere aura blowing Meng Lang’s chubby cheeks into a mess!
“Grandpas! Grandmas!”
“Let’s talk this out nicely, yes?”
“How about this, you go outside the city to fight? Even if you fight until the sky darkens and the earth dims, I won’t stop you!”
“Can’t we not do this, don’t you know that my heart is so tired!”
“Can you give me a way to survive?”
“I’m kneeling down for you!”
Meng Lang was utterly despondent, ceaselessly begging.
But the response he received was a unanimous shout from the bigwigs:
“Shut up!!”
