"Second brother?"

Upon hearing the name Zhu Jiuyin, Jiufeng was clearly taken aback. She raised her hand and nine bolts of purple lightning transformed into nine phoenixes that soared up and down, sweeping with surging thunder as they attacked Lin Qiye!

"You dare to lie to me, kid? My second brother died a long time ago, where would he get a clock for you!"

Looking at the terrifying lightning rolling across the sky, Lin Qiye thought, "Your second brother didn't intend to see me off in my final days, but you're the one who's going to do it..."

hum! ! !

A series of causal forces spread out, forming alternating black and white rings.

The power of thunder and the power of cause and effect collided violently, unleashing a terrifying shockwave of divine power!

The entire underworld was shaken, and the two ghost emperors, Shen Tu and Yu Lei, quickly joined forces to stabilize the Gate of Hell.

"Are these two planning to destroy the house?!" Shen Tu slammed his halberd down hard on the Gate of Hell.

Yu Lei smiled and said, "Don't worry, with such a big commotion, someone from above will handle it."

Just as Lin Qiye and Jiufeng were exchanging divine power, a dark golden ring flew in from afar, instantly stopping the two from fighting.

"Such a powerful force of cause and effect."

A majestic voice came from afar, echoing throughout the entire underworld.

None of the dead souls could hear the mysterious voice, but the two Ghost Emperors immediately knelt and bowed towards the direction from which the voice came.

Shen Tu and Yu Lei exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

Who is this kid? He actually alarmed the Goddess Houtu!

"Jiufeng, bring him here."

"Okay, sis."

A sky full of lightning gathered on Jiu Feng's arms, and a seemingly frail girl forcefully pulled the enormous Eastern Emperor Bell out of the ground.

It feels like Lin Daiyu uprooting a willow tree.

As Jiufeng carried the Eastern Emperor Bell inside, the two Ghost Emperors, Shen Tu and Yu Lei, were so frightened that they rushed down to stop her.

"Grandma, you mustn't do that! If we crash into the gates of hell, we'll both have to be reincarnated."

hum! ! !

A dark golden ring spun around the Eastern Emperor Bell, shrinking it back to the size of a palm and landing it in front of Jiu Feng.

Houtu Niangniang's voice reached Jiufeng's ears, her tone filled with helplessness.

"I told you to bring the person in, what are you doing carrying the bell?"

"Huh? Are you bringing anyone?"

Jiufeng held up the Eastern Emperor Bell with one hand, looked at Lin Qiye with a reluctant expression, and said irritably, "Lin Qi, come with me."

Lin Qiye's lips twitched slightly. "Um... my name is Lin Qiye."

"Call me whatever you want, just stick close."

Jiufeng led Lin Qiye to a secluded space deep within the underworld.

Here, the sky and earth are vast, birds sing and flowers bloom, completely out of place with the gloomy underworld, like a paradise on earth.

An elegant and graceful Eastern beauty, whose aura rivaled that of the goddess of the night, Nyx, held six dark gold rings and quietly awaited the arrival of the two.

"Sister Houtu, I've come to deliver this to you..."

Jiufeng glanced at the constantly spinning Eastern Emperor Bell in her hand and quickly changed her words, saying, "I've come to deliver someone to you."

Houtu smiled and shook her head, taking the Eastern Emperor Bell from Jiufeng's hands.

"Lin Qiye, you're saying this Eastern Emperor Bell was given to you by my second brother, Zhujiuyin?"

“That’s right, it was the future Senior Zhu Jiuyin who crossed the river of time to send the Eastern Emperor Bell here,” Lin Qiye nodded and said.

The Goddess Houtu held the Eastern Emperor Bell, continuously pouring divine power into it. The Eastern Emperor Bell slowly rotated, echoing with ancient, resonant chimes, vast and profound, bearing witness to the vicissitudes of time...

"Success and failure both stem from the Eastern Emperor Bell; in the darkness, everything is preordained."

Houtu Niangniang looked at Lin Qiye and said, "Lin Qiye, I need to borrow your power of cause and effect."

"Sister Houtu, you're not kidding, are you? You're the highest ruler of the Netherworld, why would you need to ask this kid for anything?" Jiufeng looked at Lin Qiye with a shocked expression.

"Your Majesty, please ask. I will do my utmost to help if I can," Lin Qiye nodded and said.

Houtu Niangniang waved her hand and handed the six dark golden rings in her hand to Jiufeng.

"After returning from Fengdu, I entrusted the Six Paths of Reincarnation to him for safekeeping."

"No, sister, what are you going to do?" Jiufeng asked Houtu with a puzzled look.

"By the way, the matter I asked you to do before, you can take care of it after Fengdu returns," Houtu said to Jiufeng.

Jiufeng gripped the Six Paths of Reincarnation tightly in her hand, her eyes becoming extremely solemn, and slowly said, "I understand."

"Lin Qiye, let's go."

With a wave of her hand, the Goddess Houtu unleashed a wave of reincarnation power, leading Lin Qiye out of the underworld and to the foot of the Qilian Mountains.

Looking at the majestic Qilian Mountains, the Goddess Houtu slowly said, "The energy and blood here should be sufficient."

Lin Qiye glanced around, especially at the bottomless abyss beneath his feet, and was somewhat bewildered.

"Your Majesty, what should we do next?" Lin Qiye asked.

"Wait someone."

"Waiting for whom?"

"She's here."

With fiery red hair, Chloe unfurled a pair of golden wings and flew swiftly down towards the foot of the Qilian Mountains.

"Chloe?!"

Chloe looked at Lin Qiye with an embarrassed expression and said, "I used a tiny bit of force in that slap just now, don't take it to heart."

Lin Qiye looked at Chloe and Houtu Niangniang with a puzzled expression.

"Your Majesty, is the person you've been waiting for... her?"

"Mm." Houtu nodded.

Chloe extended her hand to Houtu and said earnestly, "Your Excellency Houtu, you can begin once you are ready."

"I'm ready, come on."

Houtu Niangniang stretched out her hand and pressed it together with Chloe's, bursting forth with dazzling light.

"What's going on here..." Lin Qiye asked, somewhat puzzled.

"To establish a sacred covenant."

Chapter 762 The Past Returns

"To establish a holy covenant?"

What are the contents of the covenant?

Houtu Niangniang said in a deep voice, "I want to resurrect my deceased brother and sister Xuanming, and let the Twelve Ancestral Witches return to the world."

Lin Qiye looked at Houtu Niangniang with a surprised expression.

"Resurrecting the twelve supreme gods?! How is that possible?!"

Chloe said earnestly, "It may sound like a fantasy, but only Lady Houtu could do it."

"The Goddess Houtu transformed into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, allowing countless wandering souls to be reincarnated, thus accumulating countless merits."

"As the cycle of the six realms continues, one can continuously accumulate merit."

“I can use the power of the covenant to transform this power of merit into the power of faith, and resurrect the Twelve Ancestral Witches.”

"However, this beginning requires your own intervention and the power of cause and effect."

"This process is incredibly long. We must create a place where there is no time or space, firstly to avoid the key to the door, and secondly to increase the success rate."

"The interior of the Eastern Emperor Bell, the supreme artifact of the Great Xia Dynasty, perfectly meets this condition, so your power of cause and effect is very important."

As she spoke, Houtu Niangniang's figure began to gradually dim, and her lower body had become a faint afterimage.

"Miss!"

"This is my own choice, no need for further explanation. The future of my witch clan is now in your hands..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Houtu Niangniang transformed into a faint golden light and poured into the interior of the Donghuang Bell.

"The Goddess Houtu sacrificed herself, exchanging her supreme merit of saving all living beings and the souls of the dead for the rebirth of the Twelve Ancestral Witches..."

"This is the cause and effect between me and Gu Tianchen..." Lin Qiye suddenly realized.

“It turns out we succeeded, didn’t we?” Chloe said with a smile.

"Cough cough..."

Chloe was pale and coughed up streaks of blood.

Even Chloe, who carries a massive amount of faith power, could not withstand such a backlash from having a supreme god sacrifice himself and convert countless merits.

Lin Qiye quickly helped her up and used the power of cause and effect to alleviate the backlash.

"Thank you for your help, Holy Maiden."

Chloe smiled and waved her hand, "This is what the Holy Lord asked me to do. He said it's all for the final victory."

Lin Qiye activated the power of cause and effect, and the black and white rotating ring in his palm emitted mysterious fluctuations.

hum! ! !

Lin Qiye placed his hand on the Eastern Emperor Bell to begin this cause and effect, thus concealing the existence of the Eastern Emperor Bell.

The Eastern Emperor Bell slowly disappeared, as if it had never existed.

Lin Qiye and Chloe returned to Chang'an, and Hu Jia walked over excitedly.

"Lord Lin, I've modified the Misty Star you gave me. Take a look."
