The young man sighed and said with a bitter smile, "The Lord of the Imperial Court is too domineering. We are barely surviving on the edge of a knife, far from the glory spoken of by the outside world."
The older man waved his sleeve, turned, and disappeared into the surging fog, leaving only one sentence behind, "You keep a close watch on him, I'm going to ask soone for help."
After he left, the dark space beca silent once again.
The young man looked at Victorious Fighting Buddha, his gaze falling on the Buddha's clenched fists.
He noticed that even without consciousness, Victorious Fighting Buddha still maintained a fighting stance with fists tightly clenched.
He shook his head with a wry smile, then ascended and sat cross-legged in the void, quietly cultivating.
Just after he closed his eyes, Victorious Fighting Buddha's body trembled slightly.
...
In the Ancient Wilderness, within the Myriad Demon Court.
Standing in front of a stone table in the courtyard, Su Yie observed The Gate of the Great Dao placed upon it.
Even though he had rged The Gate of the Great Dao into his body, he knew nothing about the interior of the gate.
He wanted to understand the composition of The Gate of the Great Dao, and the rules it contained.
At that mont, Su Lingding suddenly ca over.
She stood behind Su Yie, peering out curiously at The Gate of the Great Dao, her little mouth puckered up, appearing very cute and confused.
Su Yie noticed her arrival but didn't take it to heart.
This girl wasn't highly intelligent and wouldn't cause trouble.
At the sa ti, he was curious to see what would happen to Su Lingding when confronted with The Gate of the Great Dao.
His first encounter with The Gate of the Great Dao had been through the future Su Lingding.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry about the future Su Lingding, wondering if she would be safe.
He sighed and then closed his eyes.
The last ti he broke through to beco Supre Lord of Infinity, he had earned an opportunity to invite soone, but he had yet to make a choice.
"Please invite any one of the following beings to join Emperor Su's Sect!"
Ju Jiusu!
Immortal Sovereign of the Great Han!
Qin Duyi!
Fla Ancestor of the Nine Heavens!
Ren Woxiu!
Emperor Qian Long!
Roaring Fury General!
...
Emperor Su has invited Qin Duyi to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Black Tiger Emperor: A new guy has arrived!
Iron Master Yuanyang God: Never heard of him, could he be a powerhouse from the Origin Plane?
Celestial Martial Emperor: Hey, surna Qin, not bad, I'll have your back from now on!
Zhao Tuyuan: Eh? Qin Duyi! Long ti no see!
Demon Wolf Star: Birds of a feather flock together, it seems. These two unknown juniors sure seem familiar with each other.
Abyss Evolution Great Emperor: What if he's a reclusive expert, be careful not to offend.
Imperial Deathstroke: What's there to fear! If it cos to it, they can co down to accompany .
...
The reason for inviting Qin Duyi was not solely because of his surna, although it did have so influence.
The na 'Duyi' seed to emphasize sothing, making it morable at first glance.
If he turned out to be as useless as Zhao Tuyuan, then so be it.
Currently, he wasn't too anxious about the strength of Emperor Su's Sect.
Moreover, the higher the realm, the less one could judge true strength by na alone.
Qin Duyi soon spoke, like a little lamb, no matter how the elders of Emperor Su's Sect mocked him, he never got angry, speaking cautiously as if he was afraid of offending soone.
Su Yie shook his head, it seed he made the wrong choice again.
Just as he was about to open his eyes, the Boundless Sage of Vast Laws, who rarely spoke, suddenly made a statent that caught his attention.
The Boundless Sage of Vast Laws said that he seed to know where the Victorious Fighting Buddha was imprisoned.
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire Sect was shaken, and everyone asked questions.
Most mbers of Emperor Su's Sect greatly respected the Victorious Fighting Buddha and did not wish for his downfall.
The Boundless Sage of Vast Laws had a high status in the Origin Plane, and his fa spread far and wide, like the Sovereign of the Grand and Mysterious Heavens in Hongng, fond of taking disciples, with disciples all over the various Divine Realms. Even the Ten Great Powers would invite him to important feasts or ask him to give lectures.
He had overheard a follower from the Imperial Court ntioning a Monkey Demon that perfectly matched the physical description of the Victorious Fighting Buddha.
It was said that the Victorious Fighting Buddha was imprisoned in the Ninefold Iron Prison of the Imperial Court.
Where the Ninefold Iron Prison was, the Boundless Sage of Vast Laws was not sure.
But at least it gave them a direction, as the Imperial Court had countless places to detain prisoners, and finding the Victorious Fighting Buddha was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Sect Elder Yang Jian began to plan how to rescue the Victorious Fighting Buddha.
Even if people like Demon Monarch Lu Ya were unwilling to make a move, they could rely on the Divine Shadow Legion or the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su.
The most important thing was to awaken the will of the Victorious Fighting Buddha, then they would be able to teleport and escape directly.
Using his identity as Emperor Su, Su Yie privately ssaged Yang Jian a few words, mainly to explain safety concerns.
If they could not rescue the Victorious Fighting Buddha, they must not insist, and could not let other mbers of Emperor Su's Sect fall into danger as well.
After finishing the instructions, he opened his eyes only to find Su Lingding lying motionless on the Gate of the Great Dao.
This scared him horribly.
He saw Su Lingding with her hands pressed on her chest, her eyes devoid of spirit as she stared at the sky as if lying in a coffin, completely lifeless.
He instinctively reached out to pick her up, but Su Lingding seed to have beco one with the Gate of the Great Dao, and he simply could not lift her up.
"What's happened?"
Su Yie was greatly alard inside. Although he had been in contact with Emperor Su's Sect just now, he had not let his guard down.
He had not noticed any signs of Su Lingding lying down on the Gate of the Great Dao, not a single sound.
"Possessed, young Su, you must be careful," said the voice of Feng Long in Su Yie's heart. The Demon Emperor Sword, his Lifesource Artifact, was concealed within the Heavenly Emperor Divine Body.
Su Yie naturally understood. He imdiately took the Gate of the Great Dao into his body, only to see Su Lingding follow him into his body, scaring him so much that he hastily released the Gate of the Great Dao.
Su Lingding still lay on the Gate of the Great Dao, her expression serene.
Serene, but terrifying.
Su Yie imdiately called the Tai Su Celestial Lord, after all, as a Hongng Divine Spirit, he had far more knowledge than Su Yie did.
When the Tai Su Celestial Lord arrived and saw this scene, he also jumped in fright.
"The Gate of the Great Dao... no, the Gate of Misfortune!"
The Tai Su Celestial Lord said through gritted teeth, looking sowhat disturbed.
The Gate of Misfortune!
Su Yie's complexion drastically changed too, he had mistaken the Gate of Misfortune for the Gate of the Great Dao...
The Tai Su Celestial Lord touched Su Lingding's forehead and mumbled, "Her soul has already fused with the folding fan of the Gate of Misfortune but hasn't been devoured, strange, her soul is not simple, though not strong, it's very pure... so pure that misfortune cannot harm her..."
Su Yie asked, "Is there a solution?"
The Tai Su Celestial Lord nodded, then shook her head.
Seeing her hesitation, Su Yie's heart sank.
"Her soul lacks spiritual wisdom, which lies within the Gate of Misfortune."
At that mont, a female voice sounded, not from the Tai Su Celestial Lord but from another woman.
Su Yie and the Tai Su Celestial Lord turned to look.
They saw a young girl in a green dress approaching, unmistakably the woman who had claid to be Miss Su Yie.
Her face was exquisite, her figure graceful, resembling a girl of fifteen or sixteen.
She walked up to the stone table, poked Su Lingding's cheek with her finger, and said, "Interesting."
