Chapter 2161: Chapter 2428: The Whereabouts of the Ancient Vermilion Bird
“Bai Hongyu, don’t think of yourself as high and mighty. Your sanctimonious demeanor is the true evil!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the Lord of the Underworld was stunned.
The thousands of Ninth Nether people were also stunned.
Since their birth, they had been inundated with words like humble, evil, and demons by countless people.
They had always believed this to be true.
No matter how strong they were, they always felt their hearts were different from humans’.
They were dark, while humans were destined to be flawless!
But now, Ren Feifan’s words seemed to ignite something, causing their blood to boil!
They were not evil, not demons; they were just like humans, even more noble!
The Lord of the Underworld glanced at Ren Feifan, whose commanding presence was truly like that of the ruler who once led the Demon Lord’s army!
They were respected!
These words surged like a tide.
The thousands of Ninth Nether people were moved to tears! Even the eyes of the Lord of the Underworld reddened.
Because finally, someone had given them a rightful name!
It was worth their kneeling, worth them calling that young man Demon Lord!
Bai Hongyu was left speechless. Just as he was about to open his mouth to try to refute, Ren Feifan gave him no chance and continued:
“Secondly, I do as I please? Who exactly uses their power to do as they please! If I had no strength, would you intend to kill me with ease! In your eyes, my life is destined to be worthless!”
“Thirdly, do you think I’ve always been hiding from you, afraid of you? Wrong! Completely wrong! If it weren’t for Bai Ling, you would have been dead long ago!
In everyone’s eyes, your Bai Family of Pilgrimage Mountain is supreme, but you don’t know that in my eyes, your Bai Family, even the Pilgrimage Mountain, is nothing more than dust?”
“No matter how great your power is, no matter how superior Bai Hongyu’s skills are, in the end, you will turn to dust. But I, Ren Feifan, even if the river of time collapses, still have the right to stand on Pilgrimage Mountain!”
A powerful aura swept throughout the scene!
This aura had no Ninth Nether power nor Xingcheng power! It was simply the power of belief!
This was Ren Feifan’s confidence!
Why? Because he had taken the Immortality Pill and had a defying bloodline! Plus Body Refinement! He almost possessed an Immortal Body!
On this Azure Planet, everyone might turn to dust, except Ren Feifan!
This powerful aura stunned everyone present!
At first, the Lord of the Underworld thought Ren Feifan’s strength was too weak to wield the Demon Lord’s Jade Seal.
But now it seemed that this person was undoubtedly the most suitable one to wield it, apart from that person!
Only such a person could unify the Ninth Nether Underworld and the Demon Sect!
Restore the prestige of the Ancient Era!
The Ninth Nether people shouted, their voices resounding in the sky:
“Demon Lord!”
“Demon Lord!”
The expressions on Bai Hongyu and the Bai family members’ faces were indefinably ugly!
Just like their surname, pale!
Suddenly, Bai Hongyu saw something, his eyes narrowing, staring intently at a figure behind Ren Feifan!
It was Bai Ling!
“Bai Ling, come over here, I’ll take you away!”
Bai Ling shook her head: “Dad, I said a long time ago that Ren Feifan is the chosen one, you should remember the master’s dying instructions to me, I must find the chosen one, so for now, I don’t want to return to the Bai family.”
“You!”
Bai Hongyu flew into a rage, his face turning red!
How could he let his daughter fool around with Ren Feifan!
He did not care about anything else and rushed towards Bai Ling, but the Lord of the Underworld was already standing in front of Bai Ling!
The power of the Ninth Nether erupted!
A “boom!” echoed as Bai Hongyu’s body was blasted away, blood gas surging.
But the Lord of the Underworld was not much better off, taking several steps back.
From that battle on Pilgrimage Mountain, he had expended too much energy; even after so many years, he could not return to his peak state.
Just as the Lord of the Underworld was about to burn his soul to slay Bai Hongyu, Bai Ling, her face pale, hurriedly grabbed Ren Feifan’s hand and said excitedly, “Ren Feifan, can you spare my father, he’s only doing it for me; I promise, if he harbors murderous intent towards you again, I will personally deal with my father.”
Ren Feifan paused, glanced at Bai Ling, then at Bai Hongyu, and nodded.
A single warning was enough.
Besides, if the Lord of the Underworld were to kill Bai Hongyu, it would come at a price.
The Lord of the Underworld was Ren Feifan’s important ally on Pilgrimage Mountain, and nothing could happen to him.
So, he said to Bai Hongyu, “This time, I’ll let you go; if you dare attack me again next time, I promise, you’ll die a horrible death, and not even your daughter could save you.”
Bai Hongyu looked fiercely at Bai Ling, who could have imagined that he would need his own daughter to save him eventually!
The key was that the Ren Feifan he had always looked down upon was now the one who determined his fate!
How detestable!
With a wave of his sleeve, he exclaimed to the Bai family experts, “In that case, we go!”
The figures of the Bai family disappeared instantly, leaving the Thistle Forest in silence.
Bai Ling looked at her father’s receding figure, knowing that this time he had kicked an iron plate.
Who would have thought that the Lord of the Underworld, who once slaughtered a hundred Pilgrimage Mountain experts, would inexplicably become Ren Feifan’s subordinate.
Was the chosen one of Pilgrimage Mountain, as the master spoke of, really so terrifying?
Ren Feifan looked at the Lord of the Underworld and asked, “What are your plans for the future? Can your injuries allow you to leave this place?”
The Lord of the Underworld nodded: “Demon Lord, leaving is possible, but my body was damaged in that great battle, and the injuries show no sign of healing. If I encounter those people from the mountaintop again, it might be very dangerous for me.”
Ren Feifan nodded, suddenly curious, “Why are you searching for the Pilgrimage Spring?”
The Lord of the Underworld replied, “Because my body was damaged, the Pilgrimage Spring can rejuvenate the body. If I now have the Pilgrimage Spring, my strength would recover as fast as possible.
But the Pilgrimage Spring is an extremely rare Holy Water, and those people naturally wouldn’t give it to me.”
Ren Feifan considered for a moment, and then said, “If that’s the case, I’ll try to find the Pilgrimage Spring, and if there’s any extra, I’ll give it to you.”
Although the Lord of the Underworld was very grateful, he still reminded, “Demon Lord, do you really want to go to that place? The blood gas and Ninth Nether aura on you are becoming stronger, even if you hide them, those powers could still detect you, making it dangerous. If you are not in a hurry, we can plan slowly.”
Ren Feifan was indeed in a hurry and directly rejected the Lord of the Underworld’s suggestion.
Then, as if he remembered something, he asked out of curiosity, “Since you’ve been on Pilgrimage Mountain for so long, do you know if there is a Vermilion Bird God Locking Array here?”
