One person established a clan

Chapter 428 Love
The hall fell silent for a moment.

Dugu Yue rested her chin on her hand and leaned against the table, watching the scene before her with great interest.

The two clan leaders, who had been so aggressive just moments before, now knelt obediently like frightened quails, not daring to raise their heads even slightly, their faces filled with fear.

--interesting.

She understood that, in terms of cultivation alone, these two lineage leaders were no weaker than her own extraordinary person, and might even be superior.

If the two sides were to fight one-on-one, the outcome would be uncertain.

But there must be another reason why these two lineage leaders are so afraid for no apparent reason.
"You two came all this way to see me, so why are you suddenly silent?"

Su Cheng sat opposite the two women, his expression slightly strange.

The two pulse masters trembled slightly on their shoulders, as if they were calming their emotions and secretly letting out a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Prince Cheng."

The Xuanling Clan Leader had regained her composure and said in a low voice, "We are just curious about who this person is who can bring about a turning point for the Dark Domain, so we wanted to come and see for ourselves."

Su Cheng's eyes flickered slightly. "Is that all?"

"It would be wonderful if we could make acquaintances."

The leader of the Yongdong lineage spoke with increasing intensity: "What the Moon King can give you, we can also give you—"

"Wait a minute."

Su Cheng raised his hand to interrupt, and smiled calmly: "Making friends is fine, but if you're trying to bribe me, then forget it."

Dugu Yue narrowed her eyes, gazing intently at the two clan leaders.

Seemingly sensing the Moon King's hostility, the Yongdong Clan Chief quickly explained, "Please don't misunderstand, we have no ill intentions."

"Then why?"

"We have come for the celestial veins in the heavens."

The Yongdong lineage master sighed helplessly: "To be honest, although spiritual energy has reappeared in the Dark Domain, very little of it flows into our two lineage territories."

"We've come here to sound out their intentions and see if they'll allow us to bring the immortal veins into our territory as well."

That is why they specially conjured up this human appearance to come and discuss things with Su Cheng in person.

"That's a nice thought."

Before any conditions could be stated, Dugu Yue scoffed coldly: "My family's extraordinary individual has already faced life-or-death dangers to open up this spiritual energy channel. How could he risk his life for you again?"

"Yes."

General Hei coldly echoed, "Although the spiritual energy spreads slowly, it will eventually cover your territories. You might as well wait patiently for another three to five years, and things will gradually improve."

"This"

Both pulse masters were taken aback upon hearing this.

They knew little about the origin of the immortal vein above the Moon King's Domain, only that it was obtained by Su Cheng and others through great effort, as told by General Hei.

But now it seems there's still a risk to his life.
"That immortal vein needs to maintain the balance of spiritual energy between the Five Desolate Domains and the Dark Domain at the same time, so it cannot be further excavated."

Su Cheng said calmly, "I understand your concerns. You fear that the Moon King, having received the most spiritual energy, will become stronger and launch another attack, which would put your territory at risk. Is that right?"

The two lineage leaders' expressions shifted, clearly indicating their lack of control over the human body and their inability to conceal their emotions.

"Ha~"

Dugu Yue scoffed again: "Two short-sighted women."

The clan leader of Xuanling frowned, turning her head slightly annoyed as she looked at her. "With Prince Cheng's assistance, you naturally have nothing to worry about. We..."

"Now is not the time for internal strife and infighting."

Su Cheng raised his hand and gestured to reassure them. "I'm sure you two are aware of the reason why the spiritual energy in the Five Desolations and the Dark Domain is declining at the same time."

Now, chaos is gradually awakening, seeking to devour and transform all living things on earth, returning everything to its original state.

Under such circumstances, these four domains and three lineages should unite as one and fight against the Chaos alongside the human race.

The Xuanling Clan Leader clenched her hands and said in a deep voice, "That may be true, but we have no way of knowing how the Moon King will act in the future. How can we be at ease?"

"I guarantee it to you."

Dugu Yue suddenly flicked her fingers, and two streaks of light flew to the two of them.

The two lineage masters instinctively caught the ball of light, and their expressions immediately changed drastically.

"you"

This is actually a remnant soul of the Moon King himself, and it contains a self-harm restriction?
"For the next hundred years, if I ever have the slightest improper desire for your territory, I will be punished by having my soul divided."

Upon hearing Dugu Yue's resolute answer, both clan leaders were secretly alarmed.

Acquiring this wisp of remnant soul and the restriction is tantamount to handing over half of their lives to them.

The Moon King was so decisive.
"Are you satisfied now?"

Dugu Yue snorted coldly: "If you still refuse, you might as well bring all your people over and rebuild your homes around my territory."

Su Cheng had not expected her to be so resolute. Just as he was about to speak, two figures quietly appeared in the hall again.

Everyone looked over and saw the Heavenly Dao descending gracefully with the Lord of the Original Vein.

"I can act as guarantor."

The Lord of the Primal Lineage said softly, "In this unification of the Dark Domain through cooperation, my Primal Lineage will provide unconditional assistance."

The head of the Xuanling Clan looked astonished: "Why is this?!"

"Because of me."

The Heavenly Dao suddenly spoke, its gaze fixed intently on them. "You may not believe in the Moon King and the Primordial Lineage, nor in Su Cheng, but can you believe my words?"

Sensing the aura of the Heavenly Dao flowing around her, the two lineage masters' pupils constricted, and their minds suddenly became clear.

No wonder the spiritual energy between the two realms could flow smoothly. It turns out that the Heavenly Dao itself appeared to personally assist!

"Unexpectedly, the spirit of the Heavenly Dao was able to possess the body of the Calamity Emperor."

The Yongdong lineage master murmured, "Even the Heavenly Dao itself would be alarmed by this matter?"

"This upheaval concerns all living beings, and naturally it also involves the heavens and the earth themselves."

Su Cheng spoke again, his voice deep and serious: "Once chaos is fully restored, this world will cease to exist. That is why we need to cooperate wholeheartedly to overcome this difficulty together."

"hiss"

Even heaven and earth themselves will be destroyed because of this?

The two lineage leaders exchanged a glance, their astonishment compounded by a heavy feeling in their hearts.

After a moment of silence, they all let go and sent the ball of light back to Dugu Yue.

"Ok?"

Dugu Yue raised an eyebrow slightly: "What does this mean?"

The Yongdong lineage master said in a low voice, "Since Heaven itself has spoken, we naturally won't make trouble. Besides..."

She couldn't help but glance at Su Cheng again. "As a human, Prince Cheng is willing to work hard for the Dark Domain. It is really inappropriate for us clan leaders to be so worried."

Dugu Yue withdrew her remnant soul and smiled, "You guys do have some brains after all."

The discussions did not last long.

After receiving the promise, the three lineage leaders each left behind a means of communication and soon departed.

Now that the war has just ended and the territory needs stability, they, as the leaders of their lineage, naturally cannot leave for too long.

"—Thanks to you."

Dugu Yue walked to Su Cheng's side with her hands behind her back and said with a smile, "Just sitting here made those two women tremble with fear and unable to speak properly. They immediately lost many of their wicked thoughts."

"I wasn't much of a help; it was all thanks to Heaven."

Su Cheng shook his head and chuckled. He glanced to the side and saw that the Heavenly Dao had already disappeared. His eyes twitched slightly.

They run really fast.

Is it that he doesn't want to see himself, or is it simply shyness?

"You're being too modest."

Dugu Yue blinked again: "However, my earlier feeling was indeed correct. This time when you entered the Dark Domain, you had a strange aura about you, which made us all somewhat uneasy."

Su Cheng quickly regained his senses and chuckled, "I suppose it's because I absorbed and refined the primordial maternal energy?"

"That's certainly possible." "But what about you?"

Su Cheng pinched her cheek. "It was too impulsive of you to suddenly hand over your remnant soul just now."

Dugu Yue chuckled: "I didn't want to put you in a difficult position, so this method is naturally more convenient."

"."

Su Cheng paused for a moment, inwardly sighing. Although she was a bit eccentric, she was undeniably likable.
"Alright, now is not the time for flirting."

The Black General suddenly walked over, holding a scroll horizontally in his hand, and stood directly in front of Dugu Yue.

"Now that the turmoil in the four domains and three veins has just stopped, all parties need to recuperate and rebuild. You, the domain king, cannot afford to be lazy any longer."

"Know it"

Dugu Yue's shoulders slumped, and she looked helpless.

Su Cheng looked at the two women and said with interest, "You two seem to have a good relationship?"

"He's been a friend for many years, and he's the only friend I can trust."

Dugu Yue's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile, "I wonder if this extraordinary person had tasted her flavor a few days ago?"

Snapped.

General Hei grabbed her shoulder and said coldly:

"We need to focus on important matters now, let's not talk about these things."

"Okay, I'll go back now."

Seeing Dugu Yue reluctantly turn around and sit down, General Hei sighed softly and exchanged a fleeting glance with Su Cheng.

In the silence, a faint blush rose on her handsome and aloof face. She lowered her eyes and whispered, "I beg Your Majesty to be tolerant of her temperament."

"You're still talking about me."

As soon as Dugu Yue sat down, she rested her chin on her hand and teased, "It's only been a few days, and you blush and get shy whenever you see my extraordinary person, acting like a little wife. You don't look like a general at all."

General Hei's ears burned as he listened, and he couldn't help but glare at her.

Su Cheng chuckled to himself. If he stayed any longer, they would probably continue bickering endlessly.

"Alright, you all continue with your duties. I'm going out for a walk. If anything comes up, feel free to call me."

After exchanging greetings, Su Cheng slipped away from the main hall.

As Dugu Yue watched his departing figure, the smile on her face gradually faded, and her gaze became distant.

General Black glanced at her. "What are you thinking about now?"

"I'm wondering when would be a good time to marry him, whether we should follow the human rites or ours, and what positions we should use with this extraordinary person, and how we should serve him."

"."

General Hei sighed softly, rubbing his forehead in exasperation.

This woman is truly hopelessly infatuated with His Majesty Prince Cheng.
Starlight from the heavens fell in all directions, while shadowy figures moved ceaselessly within the royal court.

Su Cheng stood silently in the mountains, gazing into the distance.

He didn't know much about the Dark Domain. He had been busy with the war for some time, and now that he had some free time, he was naturally quite curious about all aspects of it.

For example, what do these creatures of the Dark Realm do for a living, and how do they live their daily lives?
"So this is where it was?"

Just then, a small figure landed on his shoulder, smiling as she reached out and poked his cheek.

Su Cheng quickly tilted his head and saw Fan You sitting casually on his shoulder, her young face full of playful smiles.

"Aren't you going to stay with your good wives?"

"Xuan'er and the others are all fast asleep right now, so it's best not to disturb them."

Su Cheng chuckled lightly: "But where did you and Eleven go?"

Fan You's expression immediately turned strange: "It's that woman again."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly trembled, looked back with slight embarrassment, and instantly transformed back into a shimmering white sword shadow.

Immediately, it fell into the palm of Eleven.

She weighed the Ten-Day Sword in her hand, walked forward calmly, and tied it to Su Cheng's waist.

"Keep a close eye on her from now on, and don't let her run around."

"eleven"

Looking at the aloof and beautiful face before him, Su Cheng's expression was complicated. He asked in a low voice, "How did you sleep last night?"

Her hand movements paused slightly.

"not bad."

Eleven calmly helped him fasten the sheath again, and said lightly, "You guys are really too much of a troublemaker. You should at least tone it down."

Su Cheng gave an awkward laugh: "They're all young people, it's really... hard to tolerate."

Eleven gave him a cold, brooding look.

"Alright, now that things are settled, when do you plan to return to the Five Desolate Domains?"

"So eager?"

"Returning to the Five Desolations will save you some trouble and prevent you from getting entangled in the infighting within the Dark Domain. It's best to leave these matters to them to handle internally."

Eleven said calmly, "Moreover, once Chaos begins to make its move, the Five Desolate Domains will be the first to be attacked."

Su Cheng's mind stirred slightly, and he quickly nodded in understanding.

indeed.

Although the Dark Domain is not as unfathomable as Chaos, it still possesses some power to resist.

The cultivators of the Five Desolate Domains were completely at a disadvantage. Even if a Void Profound Realm expert stepped forward to resist, they probably wouldn't be able to withstand more than a few moves.

Once a crisis strikes, they have virtually no means of self-protection.

Regardless of whether the Dark Domain or the Five Desolate Domain falls, it will ultimately be a catastrophe.

"Let's wait a few more days until things are more stable in the Dark Domain, then we can head back."

"Okay." Eleven nodded in agreement.
She glanced at the scenery of the royal court below the mountain and said casually, "What were you all looking at just now?"

"I'm just curious about how countries here function."

"Although they differ from humans in many ways, this is the only point where they are not much different."

Eleven calmly asked, "Shall we go down and take a look?"

Su Cheng smiled and shook his head: "That's unnecessary. If we appear on the street in human form, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble."

"Then us"

Before the words were finished, the two of them suddenly looked startled and turned to look into the distance.

"Can you feel it?"

"Have."

Su Cheng's eyes flickered uncertainly. "I almost thought it was an illusion. I didn't expect there to actually be the aura of the underworld in the Dark Domain?"

Just a moment ago, a strange, cold aura seemed to arrive with the wind, extremely thin and hidden.

If neither of them had exceptionally keen senses, they might not have noticed these subtle clues.

"Go over and take a look?"

"Okay." Su Cheng put his arm around Eleven's slender waist and immediately disappeared.

Eleven tensed up, bit her lower lip lightly, and glanced at him with a slightly complicated expression.

Why did this child instinctively hug his waist?

He's definitely gone astray; he's always trying to take advantage of others.
"This may be the 'pseudo-underworld' that Heavenly Dao mentioned before."

Su Cheng said in a low voice, "I'll take Xiao Fu with me; perhaps we can get something from her."

Eleven sighed softly, "Then don't hold me so tightly, or that girl might see us later."

"fine."
