Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

He had already realized that it was this sword protecting the girl, and the pattern on the sword seemed somewhat familiar... Could it be related to that sword god?

Bai Shui'er stroked her chin and looked at the girl in the ice. The girl had her eyes closed and was very beautiful, with long, ink-black hair draped behind her.

She wore a light purple dress, her skin was as white as snow, and her hair was adorned with a translucent amethyst hairpin...

Bai Shui'er looked away. "Should we take her out?"

"Of course..."

Nezha's Hun Tian Ling flew out and wrapped around the entire ice wall. "This sword looks familiar. I'll take a closer look after we break the ice!"

On the other side, after dealing with the four frost giants, Diao Lingyun and her two companions, led by the Fire Phoenix, gradually approached the center of the forest.

At the same time, they were somewhat relieved. The fact that Fire Phoenix could sense Bai Shui'er's presence meant that she was alright, and all they had to do now was find her.

As the three of them walked, they began discussing how to settle scores later...

Diao Lingyun asked, "Qian Hong, do you remember what those two guys' names were?"

Yang Qianhong recalled for a moment, "Hmm... one of them was named Rock, and the other was someone he called Lord Hades..."

"That guy's guardian deity is Hades, the god of the underworld!"

Lu Xiangong added, "Hades is a god in ancient Greek mythology. We just need to find his host and take revenge. It was that guy who poisoned Shui'er!"

Diao Lingyun sighed, "Let's talk about that later! After we find Shui'er, we'll go find Zhan Tian and the others, and then we'll meet up with Mo Xuan and the others!"

After this battle, they all realized to some extent the difference in strength between each other.

In the underworld, their strength was considered upper-middle tier, but upon arriving in the Great Thousand God Realm, they plummeted to the bottom. It was only because Li Shimin was thoughtful that he gave them divine beasts for protection...

Chapter 325: Helping Others to the End

Soon, Diao Lingyun and the other two found Nezha and Bai Shui'er, who had just come out of the cave under the Flaming Mountain in the center of the forest.

"Shui'er!"

Diao Lingyun rushed forward and hugged her tightly, "Thank goodness, you're really alright!"

Bai Shui'er nodded with a smile, "Yes, did you chase that guy away?"

"He's already escaped. We'll get our revenge on that bastard when we have the chance!"

Yang Qianhong and Lü Xiangong also breathed a sigh of relief, their gazes falling on the ice block next to Nezha, noticing the girl frozen inside. "Shui'er, this is..."

"Oh, this is what Nezha and I found in the cave!"

Bai Shui'er walked up to the ice block and asked Nezha beside her, "Nezha, are you coming?"

"Okay, I'll take care of it! You guys move aside!"

Nezha unleashed the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover to envelop the ice block. The flames within the cover fiercely scorched the ice, but to his surprise, the sword within the ice block seemed to be releasing power to resist...

However, as a renowned deity of the Heavenly Court, the Three Altars and Seas, how could he be stopped by an unknown sword?

With a wave of his hand, Nezha released nine miniature fire dragons from the Divine Fire Cover, which coiled around the ice and continuously unleashed flames, causing the ice to gradually melt...

"All right……"

Nezha clapped his hands and took two steps back. "This ice will completely melt in a little while!"

Bai Shui'er, Diao Lingyun, Yang Qianhong, and Lü Xiangong exchanged a glance, then sat down and waited quietly...

Yangche and Mubing stopped outside the forest. Nezha's Samadhi Fire was burning inside the forest, and if they stepped in, Nezha would immediately discover them.

Yang Che found a rock and sat down. "At this rate, the Ten Thousand Year Ice won't last long, and the sword will fall into their hands. What should we do? Should we stop them?"

"There's no need..."

The soldier turned around and said, "They won't be able to use the sword even if they get it, so let's just let them keep it for now!"

"You mean we have to go back?"

"Of course not..."

Mu Bing glanced back at her. "They're too weak. That girl can't be allowed to get hurt by them!"

"Before they officially reunite with that brat, let's deal with this troublesome opponent for them! Consider it repaying a favor to the leader!"

His move was quite underhanded; he forcibly repaid Li Moxuan's favor of letting Yinglong go, and the key point is that Li Moxuan couldn't refuse...

As for Li Moxuan, it has to be said that Jiang Mingxuan is indeed reliable. Relying on the information he provided, they quickly figured out the area where the person was located.

"Recently, some girls who ride divine beasts into battle have indeed appeared in the Great Thousand God Realm, some of them near the Red Lotus Forest in the southern region!"

"The other part is near the Diluo Mountains in the eastern region. I heard there's a girl there who calls herself 'Tiger Lord.' I wonder if she's the one you're looking for..."

That's obviously Sun Zhantian!

Li Moxuan stroked his chin and asked, "Anything else?"

"That's all for now..."

With a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, Jiang Mingxuan gazed at the bustling crowd outside. "Today is the Tang Clan's recruitment day. Aren't you planning to go?"

"Those guys have already left, I don't have time to join in the fun..."

Everyone went?

Jiang Mingxuan glanced at him. "Isn't that girl your little follower? Will she go with that group of people?"

"She's resting inside..."

Seemingly spurred by Jiang Mingxuan's earlier speculation, Su Xuanwei didn't believe she was some kind of deity, so she had been trying to communicate with the deity within her for the past few days...

"rest?"

Jiang Mingxuan looked at Li Moxuan in surprise, "You two didn't actually have a one-night stand, did you?"

"We're just roommates, what are you thinking? Besides, I already have a wife..."

Jiang Mingxuan curled his lip, "So what? You're a man from the underworld... and that girl is so pretty..."

Although he quickly tried to cover it up after realizing he had let something slip, Li Moxuan still keenly sensed something was amiss. "You're investigating me?"

He frowned. The only people who knew his identity were the few who had followed him into the underworld and the Dragon Chess Generals. How did Jiang Mingxuan find out?

Could it be... that he used the information he provided to arrest other people?

Noticing that Li Moxuan's gaze had become strange, Jiang Mingxuan quickly confessed, "They let it slip during their conversation, and I just happened to overhear it..."

"really?"

Li Moxuan was still a little skeptical. He knew too little about Jiang Mingxuan and had no idea what kind of person he was. What if…

"Kid, as the Lord of the Nine Li Army, I assure you, everything this kid says is true!"

Because it concerned whether he could regain all his power, and in order not to ruin the deal, Chi You's figure appeared and disappeared behind Jiang Mingxuan.

"I naturally believe what the Lord of War says..."

Li Moxuan also knew something about Chi You. Although he was defeated by the Yellow Emperor in the Battle of Zhuolu, he was by no means an incompetent villain.

As a famous saying goes, history is written by the victors, and the demonization of Chi You by later generations is mostly based on his defeat by the Yellow Emperor, the principle of "the victor is king, the loser is villain."

Chi You was essentially a very capable tribal leader; otherwise, the Jiuli tribe wouldn't have been so powerful that it required the combined forces of the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor's tribes to deal with him.

Li Moxuan didn't believe that Chi You would lie using the name of Jiuli for the sake of some power...

Seeing that Jiang Mingxuan didn't seem to be lying, Li Moxuan lowered his guard slightly. "How much do you know?"

"All I know is that you are the ruler of the underworld, the emperor of the underworld, and have several wives..."

To be honest, Jiang Mingxuan only knew that the Underworld was one of the Five Realms, and he was quite surprised when he learned that Li Moxuan was the ruler of the Underworld.

Li Moxuan didn't care how much he knew; he was just worried that the man had arrested his people...

To ease the tension, Jiang Mingxuan steered the conversation back on track, saying, "Anyway, you're the emperor, one more won't make a difference..."

Shut up!

Li Moxuan was speechless and abruptly ended the conversation by asking, "How far is this place from the Red Lotus Forest and the Emperor's Fall Mountain Range?"

"It's very far..."

Jiang Mingxuan took out a map of the Great Thousand Divine Realm and handed it to him, "This is Thousand Tree Town, located in the western region of the Great Thousand Divine Realm. The Red Lotus Forest and the Emperor's Fall Mountain Range are located in the southern and eastern regions respectively!"

"If you were to walk there, it would probably take you several years to get there. Of course, to help someone out completely, I can arrange for you to ride on the merchant's Sky Ship!"

"In that case, it will take anywhere from a week to half a month to reach your destination, saving you a lot of time!"

He coughed lightly, "But I can't help you for nothing. You have to bring back the body of the warlord first and complete the transaction!"

Chapter 326: The Chessboard of the Gods

That night, Jiang Mingxuan arranged a tea room for Li Moxuan, gathered Cao Yanbing and the others together, and shared some information.

"According to the information Jiang Mingxuan found out, there are four people in the Red Lotus Forest in the South District and four girls in the Diluo Mountains in the East District. Xia Ling should be one of them."

"He can let us cross over on the merchant's Skyship, but only on the condition that the transaction is completed!"

Li Moxuan's gaze swept over them. "I called you all here to discuss the matter of returning to the Wasteland of the Desolate God to find Chi You's corpse!"

"Also, Fengzha, are you ready?"

Yan Fengzha nodded, "Feilian has been with me since I was a child. I believe in the bond between us. It's just some demonic energy, so there shouldn't be any problem!"

"Alright, get ready. Tomorrow, Jiang Mingxuan will help you fuse these demonic elements. Freud, I'll leave it to you and Honglian to keep an eye on things!"

"Hmm, no problem... it's just that Cao Yanbing..."

"Cao Yanbing, come with me to find Chi You's corpse. You'll be fine!"

That's not what I meant...

Freud's gaze fell on Cao Yanbing. "Cao Yanbing has successfully joined the Tang Sect and will be reporting to the Tang Sect headquarters in a few days..."

Li Moxuan was taken aback for a moment and couldn't help but ask, "Cao Yanbing, are you in such a hurry?"

No wonder Cao Yanbing, who is usually so carefree, is so silent now, it turns out...

"I just think the Tang Clan might be worth trying to win over..."

Cao Yanbing offered his idea, "Didn't you want to create your own power in the Great Thousand God Realm?"
