Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 167 A Shocking Secret: This is the Nine Netherworld!

Hearing this, Jiuyou tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying seriously, "It's hard to say for sure using the time in this world; it can be said to be a long time ago."

A long time ago?

At this moment, Li Qiye suddenly realized a problem.

That is, the timing seems wrong.

In the backyard of the Seven Nights Prince's Mansion, there was a deathly silence.

Mo Daoren watched this scene with a mixture of excitement and fear, his gaze involuntarily falling on Jiu You, but he dared not look at her for long, only glancing at her from time to time.

The will of Heaven and Earth!
That is such a supreme being.

However, at this moment, Li Qiye realized that something was wrong.

"According to what Jiuyou just said, the person she knows is not my past life, but the person I am now..."

“And she said that she had met me a long time ago. For the will of heaven and earth to say such a thing, it means that the time is really long, probably even longer than the ancient times.”

"But for me, I've only known her for a few days... so the timeline doesn't match up at all."

These thoughts flashed quickly through Li Qiye's mind.

Suddenly, Li Qiye seemed to understand.

Li Qiye still felt that the Nine Netherworld he entered was the present timeline, but it was actually a timeline from a very long time ago.

In other words, everything that happened there occurred before ancient times.

Neither the person in the bronze coffin nor the Buddha statue belong to this world.

"Nine Netherworlds said, this is completely one world..."

"In other words, the world we live in now is actually the Nine Netherworld, only that the time point was the initial stage of the Nine Netherworld, and now countless years have passed since that point..."

Thinking of all this, Li Qiye took a deep breath, utterly shocked.

"If I hadn't had that sudden inspiration to merge the two worlds together, thus filling that place with life, this world would probably have gradually perished, just as Jiuyou said..."

"It's terrifying to think about..."

Li Qiye's lips twitched.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the word his fellow villager Xue Linfeng wrote before he died.

"burial!"

He wasn't wrong; this is indeed a burial ground.

A Netherworld, a world that should have been filled with endless heroic spirits, was completely changed because of Li Qiye.

Thinking about all this, Li Qiye felt very complicated.

He inexplicably saved the world, and even the will of heaven and earth regarded him as their benefactor.

Wouldn't that mean we'd be completely doomed from now on?

From this perspective, Jiuyou indeed harbored no ill will towards him; it's just that Li Qiye hadn't completely let his guard down.

It should be understood that the will of heaven and earth is ruthless and equal to all living beings in the world. Even those with great fortune need to go through trials of life and death to obtain opportunities.

If you pass, you'll gain an opportunity; if you fail, you'll just be a pile of dust.

After a while, they were in the pavilion.

Li Qiye faced Jiuyou, while Li Yueyao and Qin Linglong stood to the side, their gazes involuntarily drawn to Jiuyou.

There was really no way around it; no one could remain calm knowing that the legendary will of heaven and earth was sitting right in front of them.

"The will of Heaven is actually a little girl?"

Qin Linglong murmured to herself.

If this gets out, probably not many people will believe it.

As for Mo Daoren, he had already left, and he left with great reluctance, hoping that Li Qiye would ask him to stay and broaden his horizons.

What a joke! How could Li Qiye possibly keep him here?
Communicating with the will of Heaven inevitably involves some secrets, and Mo Daoren is ultimately an outsider.

"The first question is, how is my aunt, the Immortal Xiyue, doing now?" Li Qiye pondered for a moment before asking.

"She left here a long time ago, as did your mother."

"Nine Netherworld spoke."

They've all left?
Li Qiye frowned involuntarily, feeling inexplicably awkward when she heard her mother's name.

After all, in Li Qiye's heart, his mother had passed away more than a decade ago, leaving him behind.

However, she doesn't know how many years she has been gone from this world. Time has become paradoxical here, and it's hard to understand the rules behind it.

Where did they go?

Li Qiye continued to ask.

"They all went to the human world back then, and as for where they are now, I have no idea."

"world?"

Li Qiye frowned slightly. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still quite shocked when it was confirmed.

"So, this place is indeed the Nine Netherworld, also known as the Underworld, which corresponds to the human world, or the mortal realm?"

Li Qiye spoke first.

"That's right, you can think that way."

Jiuyou nodded.

Li Qiye shook his head helplessly. He had already misjudged everything from the name Jiuyou. This place might really be the Jiuyou Netherworld.

Fortunately, the world is completely different now, and those evil spirits were converted by the Buddha long ago.

Then, it was reborn from the dead, radiating vitality. It was no longer the pure Netherworld, but it probably couldn't be called the human world either.

"Sword Without Trace, Phoenix Rainbow Robe, Purple Ink Qilin, Golden Roc Wan'er, have they already been revived?"

Li Qiye thought of the friends he had met in the world of Tomb of the Gods and couldn't help but ask.

Jiuyou nodded and said, "That's right. Apart from the Purple Ink Qilin, everyone else is no longer in this world."

"As long as you're alive, that's enough."

Li Qiye nodded, a smile appearing on his face: "Back then, apart from Jian Wuhen, who could fight me, everyone else was quite a bit weaker than me. But now, I'm afraid they could kill me with a single slap."

"will not."

Jiuyou said with a serious expression, "Even if they do that, I will not agree."

"I see."

Li Qiye chuckled. He was just joking, but Jiuyou took it seriously.

"I have one last question."

Li Qiye thought for a moment, then looked at Jiuyou and asked, "Are we living people or dead people?"

Is it a living person or a dead person?
The three women beside him were shocked when the question was asked.

Although they had overheard the conversation, they hadn't thought about it deeply. However, when Li Qiye asked this question, even Li Yueyao, who had seen a lot and knew many secrets, widened her eyes in shock and confusion.

Why would Brother Qiye ask that?

Since you've asked that question, then...

At this moment, Li Yueyao had a bad feeling.

Are we... still dead?

Qin Linglong's beautiful eyes were filled with confusion as she murmured to herself, "Aren't we alive and well? We're clearly made of flesh and blood!"

"And I've even seen ghosts. They're all illusory spirits, and they don't even dare to get too close to us. They're terrified of the aura of war spirits on us..."

Upon hearing this, Li Yueyao nodded to herself.
