Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

Chu Mingkong hugged her and said with a wry smile:

"No, Bai Niang! Didn't you hear Xue Jun say how powerful the home-field advantage of the supreme beings is? We finally met, and I don't want to part so soon. Why don't you go and meet the girls and babies first?"

Yunhan and Qingning miss you very much. I'll just take a couple of breaths of extremely yin energy here to calm myself down~

Bai Niang agreed, and after receiving directions from Chu Mingkong, she went ahead to the palace to visit her long-lost relatives and friends.

Although they had just met, she had a lot to say to Chu Mingkong, but since they had already met, there was no rush. They could talk after he calmed down.

After watching Bai Niang leave, Chu Mingkong wanted to leave the Moonlit Wilderness and head towards the source of the extreme Yin energy—that was the loophole that Bai Niang had created, and the Extreme Abyss was located there.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the Moonlight Arakawa territory, a strong sense of fatigue and exhaustion overwhelmed him, and he quickly retreated back into the Moonlight Arakawa.

Only then did he realize that his current slight fatigue was due to the support of Moonlight Wild River. If he had taken a few steps outside, he probably would have fallen asleep on the spot before even reaching the spatial rift.

"Oh no, it really has become the land god of Moonlight Arakawa, and it's the kind of earthbound spirit that can't even leave the land."

Chu Ming made a casual remark, then turned his gaze to the Lord of Xuechuan, who stood quietly to the side.

The scene of the bipolar storm that was triggered flashed through his mind.

It seems that the white-haired woman completely absorbed that Dao Fruit at that time.

During the absorption process, Chu Mingkong did not pay close attention. At that time, he was focused on the two great enemies, so he had no time to pay attention to the Lord of Xuechuan.

However, there is one thing Chu Mingkong can confirm: the Lord of Xuechuan used the power of extreme Yin, right?

Otherwise, this bipolar storm would have been destroyed by the Heavenly Demon Emperor and his allies in the first instance, and there would have been no follow-up events.

It was precisely because of the Lord of Snow River's crucial delay that Bai Niang's surprise attack was able to lay the foundation for victory.

What does that mean?

Master's wife Shen Xuejun is the Snow River Lord's self in the dream, but she did not acknowledge her experience as Shen Xuejun before, and only accepted the physical Dao Fruit that Shen Xuejun comprehended in the region.

In the critical moment of the great battle, the Lord of Xuechuan fully absorbed that Dao Fruit. Doesn't that mean that she "remembered" her life experience as Shen Xuejun in the region?

The Lord of Snow River should know about the experiences of those three wine jars, the countless intimate memories that followed, and even the memories of their harmonious cultivation before heading to the Heavenly Realm.

But Chu Mingkong was not quite sure. If the Lord of Xuechuan insisted on treating Shen Xuejun's memories and personality as a part of his own personality and refused to acknowledge it, what could he do?

"Xuejun, let me ask you something... Are you Xuejun now, or my master's wife Shen Xuejun?"

"..."

Lord Xuechuan didn't really want to pay attention to him. Chu Mingkong's way of asking the question was very advantageous, as it would lead to Shen Xuejun no matter what.

Chu Mingkong was not discouraged or disheartened when he saw that he was being given the cold shoulder. He had been subjected to the cold violence by the Queen Mother of the West countless times.

"I remember we made a promise that once this crisis was resolved, you would return my master's wife to me. Now the Heavenly Demon Emperor is dead, and the Ancient Buddha is seriously injured, with half of his belly burned off."

"The victory is secured. When do you plan to return my master's wife to me?"

The Lord of Snow River finally acknowledged him, though her tone still seemed somewhat hesitant as she said:

"The victory is already decided? That's a bit premature. The Ancient Buddha may have a way to turn the tide. The dust has not yet settled between the chaotic battle at Star Tomb and the Holy Sun Flower Bridge. At least for now, apart from me, there are still three supreme beings remaining in this changing situation."

Indeed, until the final supreme being appears, everything is still subject to change.

However, Chu Mingkong now has Bai Niang's help, and the Heavenly Domain also has an entrance to the Extreme Abyss. He can even go to Jiba Mountain to absorb the power source left behind after the fall of the Heavenly Sword God and achieve a breakthrough in his realm and strength.

His chances of winning can continue to improve.

But what if, in the end, the other supreme beings are all eliminated? What will the Lord of Snow River do then?

How could she repay him with a master's wife?

There shouldn't be a way to separate the Dao and its fruits again, right?

"Let me ask you something else. After you absorbed that Dao Fruit, did you feel anything strange or embarrassed about those extra memories?"

"I didn't look. I avoided those memories to prevent them from sullying my eyes!" the Lord of Snow River said coldly.

So you do know what's in those memories, otherwise how would you know there's a part about "dirty eyes"...?

"Chu Mingkong, aren't you worried that the white python might have designs on joining the upheaval? Her power is now far greater than before, no less than that of any of us."

"I don't sense that Bai Niang has those kinds of thoughts, so you can rest assured... So Xue Jun, do you still have a way to return a master's wife to me?"

The Lord of Snow River did not reply; his figure vanished from the spot and returned to Snow River Divine City.

After this great battle, another supreme being has fallen. She needs to go back and settle things properly to avoid internal chaos.

Chapter 266 Everyone is well

Snow River Divine City.

The protective aura of the supreme being showed no signs of wavering, indicating that the Lord of Snow River was well. However, it was only after seeing her return unharmed that the group of holy beings were completely relieved.

"Palace Master, it's so good to hear that you're alright!"

"We have already sent people to confirm that the protective aura of the Azure Nether Demon Capital has disappeared. The Heavenly Demon Emperor has completely perished and has no further plans!"

"But this time only the Heavenly Demon Emperor perished. The situation of the Ancient Buddha is unknown. He has returned to his holy land. Now, Burning Lamp Buddha Mountain is isolated from the outside world, and there is no way to know what is happening inside."

While the Lord of Snow River was not returning, her subordinates did not just wait idly; they still accomplished a great deal.

After briefly stating that she was alright, she told everyone to go back and rest, while Binglan and the other two accompanied her back to the palace.

Sitting back in his familiar chair, Lord Yukikawa turned his gaze outside.

The people of Xuechuan Divine City were elated, probably feeling that the dust had settled and that Xuechuan Divine City could remain safe until the next upheaval, with their own palace master being the victor this time.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with thinking that way.

After she fully absorbed that Dao Fruit, the Lord of Snow River had already reached the finish line in this upheaval, and could rest easy while waiting for the next start.

With two supreme beings having already perished this time, the pressure she will face in the future has decreased dramatically.

The prosperity of Xuechuan Divine City rests entirely on her shoulders, so the excitement of the people is understandable.

However, the Lord of Snow River still had mixed feelings about the Dao Fruit he had absorbed.

It is impossible to completely isolate the influence of those memories.

If it were really that easy, why would she have sent Binglan to the forbidden area of ​​the Spirit Palace to find Chu Mingkong and see if he was willing to withdraw that wisp of extreme Yin power?

Now, this Dao fruit has been completely integrated into her being.

Shen Xuejun became a part of her memory, a part of her experience.

She is the Lord of Snow River, traveling through the land in her dream form to explore the identity of the Dao Fruit of the physical body.

From a personal perspective, the dream of the Snow River Lord went a bit out of control later on. She had originally envisioned maintaining a clear mind and emotions, not getting too involved in feelings, and simply being a hermit cultivator with the most indifferent and cold attitude.

If one succeeds in cultivation, one returns with the results; if one fails to succeed and does not achieve the desired effect, one's dream ends and one's soul dissipates, only to be reborn into another dream.

Therefore, the Lord of Snow River had very complicated feelings about Shen Xuejun's suddenly "remembered" memories.

That was a completely unexpected development.

It's like... something that happened accidentally?

Unfortunately, this relationship didn't just last one night; it involved a long-standing emotional connection.

Or perhaps, one accidentally recalls their experience of "amnesia," during which they had various interactions and feelings with others.

These experiences were somewhat outrageous.

"Palace Master...you don't seem to be in a good mood?" Jade Heart Saint Venerable asked tentatively.

"Yes, Palace Master, shouldn't this be a time for celebration? Why do you seem so troubled?" Qi Xue asked worriedly, her voice trembling with tension. "Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Emperor and the Ancient Buddha have left behind some kind of backup plan?!"

"Neither, no need to guess. I'm just lamenting. It's a bit unbelievable that two old rivals have fallen due to the power of extreme Yin in such a short time."

The three holy beings scattered their thoughts, all of them thinking in a serious direction.

"Is the Palace Master worried that Lord Chu will become the final enemy? His extreme Yin power is indeed much more threatening than expected, but Binglan thinks the Palace Master seems to... also possess extreme Yin power?"

"...Alright, you can all leave now. I need some peace and quiet. Remember to remind all the disciples of Xuechuan to be extra careful. With the Heavenly Demon Emperor fallen, the cultivators of the Demon Capital might do something impulsive."

While the Lord of Xuechuan may not fear any desperate attacks, he cannot guarantee that his disciples will not die unjustly, which would be a terrible loss.

......

After resting for a long time, Chu Mingkong immediately returned to his lair as soon as his strength was restored.

Bai Niang transformed into her half-snake form, and several babies clung to her plump body, playing on the slide for the first time in a long time. They were very affectionate, their silvery baby laughter ringing out continuously.

"This is too much! Nobody even checked on me, and the babies just started clinging to Bai Niang?"

Chu Mingkong put on a hurt expression and went over to pinch the little ones' cheeks.

Zuo Qiuchi bluntly exposed:

"Didn't you tell Bai Niang to come back and visit the baby first? Why are you being so sentimental now?"

"It's just polite talk~ Besides, Master, you can come and see me, I'm so bored lying there all by myself."

"I'm tired, I can't keep you company any longer. Do you know how tiring it is to control that sword intent illusion!"

Zuo Qiuchi, like a female hooligan, rested her head on her younger sister Donglu's soft thighs. Sometimes, when Donglu was meditating, she would lean forward a little and use her proud, full breasts to block out the light so she could sleep.

Seeing that she was still sleeping so soundly, Chu Mingkong figured that she was probably alright.

In the previous battle against the Heavenly Demon Emperor and the Ancient Ancestor Buddha, Zuo Qiuchi and her group did not have a strong presence, but it cannot be said that they made no contribution at all.

Those phantom sword forms were all personally wielded and controlled by them.

This was a strategic decision made at the time, because Chu Mingkong planned to first consolidate all the power he could control before facing the attack of the Heavenly Demon Emperor and his allies.

Aside from the few fragments of the Goddess's essence, these powers then cultivated with Zuo Qiuchi and the others one by one to complete the Xuan Nu's essence. Finally, they returned to Jiba Mountain to absorb and refine all the remaining power of the Heavenly Sword God.

Only in this way can we be considered to be in our best condition and fully prepared to face the simultaneous attack of two supreme beings.

As it turned out, they arrived ahead of time. Chu Mingkong was worried that he wouldn't be able to take care of them, so he could only have Zuo Qiuchi and the others help manipulate the sword intent illusions from behind.

In this way, even if the sword intent illusion goes wrong, they will not be seriously injured, and they can still demonstrate their swordsmanship skills.

However, although Chu Mingkong has returned in triumph this time, and even achieved the victory of defeating the Heavenly Demon Emperor, discussions about the aftermath are inevitable.
