The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1743 - 1740: Meeting

The Qiankun Ancestor trapped the Endless Sea Dragon King, but he himself had transformed into his true form, unable to revert to human shape for the time being. He instructed the black-clothed little girl to hold him in her hands to prevent him from sinking into the depths of the Endless Sea.

The black-clothed little girl followed the instructions and held the Qiankun Pot in her hands.

However, the black-clothed little girl was only palm-sized, not much larger than the Qiankun Pot itself, almost carrying it, which looked rather comical.

At that moment, the seawater suddenly rippled.

Immediately after, a sickly man appeared out of nowhere. His face was an eerie pale, with lifeless eyes, resembling a corpse. He faced the black-clothed little girl, stunned for a moment.

"Who are you?"

The black-clothed little girl asked warily upon seeing the corpse-like man.

The corpse-like man ignored the black-clothed little girl and disappeared into thin air, seemingly unable to find his target.

"How bizarre."

The black-clothed little girl muttered but did not wander off. Her master and big brother were not in the right state; she needed to protect them.

The next instant, the corpse-like man appeared again without a word, reaching out to snatch the Qiankun Pot from the black-clothed little girl’s hands.

"What are you doing?!"

The black-clothed little girl was instantly angry, baring her teeth and glaring at the corpse-like man.

Yet, the petite black-clothed little girl in this manner seemed not intimidating at all, instead appearing innocently cute.

The corpse-like man ignored the black-clothed little girl and inspected the Qiankun Pot.

"Give my big brother back!"

The black-clothed little girl was even more furious, transforming into the God-beating Stone and fiercely hurled it at the corpse-like man.

The corpse-like man did not bother to look, raised his hand, and grasped the God-beating Stone.

The God-beating Stone transformed back into the black-clothed little girl, held in the man’s hand. She struggled desperately, but this guy had astonishing strength; she couldn’t break free.

"Calm down."

The corpse-like man spoke slowly, his voice hoarse and low, as if from someone on the brink of death, struggling to speak.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the black-clothed little girl actually quieted down and stopped struggling or shouting.

This wasn’t the black-clothed little girl’s intention; it seemed as though the words carried some dreadful power that controlled her actions.

The black-clothed little girl felt a bit terrified inside.

Who is this guy, and why is he so abnormal!

The sensation he gave her was even more terrifying than the Southern Dipper Ancient Emperor Qiao Tiannan, whom she was most close to back then.

"What exactly does this guy want to do?"

The black-clothed little girl was both shocked and angry; she could only observe the corpse-like man, afraid he might do harm to her big brother or master.

The corpse-like man was indifferent to the black-clothed little girl. After suppressing her, he focused on the Qiankun Pot, observing its interior and discovering the Endless Sea Dragon King.

The corpse-like man wanted to explore further, but at that moment, his lifeless eyes suddenly looked in another direction. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The next instant, the corpse-like man released the black-clothed little girl and the Qiankun Pot, rushing toward that direction.

The black-clothed little girl quickly caught the Qiankun Pot and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But it’s no longer safe to stay here, lest that guy comes back.

So the black-clothed little girl left in the opposite direction with the Qiankun Pot.

Inside the Qiankun Pot, the Endless Sea Dragon King remained motionless.

The Qiankun Ancestor attempted to enter the Endless Sea Dragon King’s body but found that the guy had completely sealed himself off; he was at a loss on how to proceed.

At the same time, the Endless Sea Dragon King was still searching for that power.

And that power was the Origin Power of the Yang Demon.

At this moment, the Yang Demon was also searching for the Origin Power left in the Endless Sea Dragon King’s body back then.

But after probing for a long time, the Yang Demon couldn’t find it.

"Could it be that the guy already knew of my scheme and acted in advance?"

The Yang Demon muttered silently, but since the Origin Power is hard to dismantle, that guy was indeed threatening but definitely not capable of dismantling the Origin Power.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, the Yang Demon felt a certain aura.

Somewhat familiar.

The Yang Demon changed direction, heading towards that aura.

A moment later, the Yang Demon encountered the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

"Lord of Death, Nine Netherworld Phoenix?"

Seeing the soul of the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, the Yang Demon was greatly surprised: "Weren’t you dead?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix shook its head and said, "Just suppressed."

"Why are you here?"

The Yang Demon sized up the Nine Netherworld Phoenix and spoke softly.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix did not answer but asked, "Your state seems a bit off?"

At this moment, the Yang Demon was essentially a strand of black flame, occasionally emitting intense aura, with no specific form.

Upon hearing this, the Yang Demon’s tone deepened, saying, "The plan encountered a slight issue."

"By the way, since you’re here, have you seen the Origin Power I left behind?"

The Yang Demon asked.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix nodded slightly and said, "Seen it, but it’s gone now."

"Gone?!"

The Yang Demon’s tone was cold: "Nine Netherworld Phoenix, you dare to tamper with my Origin Power?!"

The killing intent was fully visible.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix was uninterested, calmly saying, "Even if you had the qualifications for a fight with me, what’s the point, besides, I’m not inclined to mess with your Origin Power."

Hearing this, the Yang Demon’s anger slightly diminished but his tone remained stiff: "Then what does this mean?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix calmly said, "It’s simple; someone erased your Origin Power."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix didn’t fully speak the truth; Ye Xuan absorbed the Origin Power rather than erasing it.

"Nonsense!"

The Yang Demon didn’t believe it, saying in a stern voice: "No one in this world can erase the Origin Power; you and I both know this well. What’s really going on, you must explain clearly."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix said, "I’ve explained enough."

The Yang Demon was angry again, the black flame forming eyes, glaring at the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, and said in a deep voice: "Do you know this step concerns my Dou Tian Divine Domain’s broader situation? If something goes wrong, can you bear the responsibility?!"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix calmly replied, "It’s not under my charge, so how does it concern me?"

If he had a head, the Yang Demon’s head would probably explode in rage now, "Nine Netherworld Phoenix, don’t play games with me. I’m asking who erased my Origin Power?"

"Is there a traitor in my Dou Tian Divine Domain?"

"Or are you that traitor?"

The Yang Demon fixed his gaze on the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix’s eyes were cold and glared at the Yang Demon: "If I were a traitor, would I be talking to you properly like this?"

The Yang Demon looked at the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, speechless.

Moments later, the Yang Demon seemed to calm down, his voice solemn: "Assuming I believe you, the plan has already been disrupted, I hope you can lend me a hand."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix did not immediately agree but asked, "I need to know what the plan is this time."
