MD Ch4 Part 4

I didn’t dare linger in the Extreme Cold Realm. Ruo Ruo giving me the Coexistent Ice Lotus, such an important item for her kind, meant she had abandoned her ties to her clan. Like the Four Divine Beast Clans, the Snow Demon Clan was extremely wary of outsiders. If her parents were to discover what she had done, they would undoubtedly come looking for me. No matter how strong my cultivation, I would be outnumbered, and that would put Song Qiyuan and Ah Jiu in danger.8baa849e0cd00bc1

I planned to stop at the Domain of Bones on my way back to investigate what had happened to Jiang Gui. I couldn’t afford any inconsistencies after lying to Gu Jincheng. I was also curious about the massive formation. Perhaps it held the key to why I had not only transmigrated into this world but also regressed in time.9a066e1861c798a7

However, things didn’t go as planned. When we arrived at the main city of the Domain of Bones, the black mist formation above the city had already dispersed. According to the locals, it had been gone for ten days.aec145f780b29696

We settled 1884abf4c5 into an 89a2ec560b inn in fccb4a8d09 the Domain c22e2b4d23 of Bones, dc9869b0a6 and I 02ac0ab68c let Ah 9bc3b600b6 Jiu and da83269b88 Song Qiyuan dc791f1df3 rest upstairs. Feigning nonchalance, I sat 07c25ec30e at a corner table b3c39710e2 on the first floor, 9533a92adb ordering some wine and a170c1e149 discreetly eavesdropping on the 90a9803144 conversations around me, hoping 7f7663b684 to glean some useful 8db2b73d41 information.c605b62a7e5454cc

People tended 07517884a5 to lower 1836434683 their guard 1071b7c5b7 when eating 0bcd30fe12 and drinking, a42832ef72 often gossiping c0bbec73ef about various 48c1671444 rumors. A demonic cultivator b795b59724 sitting behind me f56b37c67a to the right 679c123727 was speaking loudly c99f123283 and without reservation 43e1474d13 about his own 80b0acaffd theories, despite only 4b14903cd4 having one listener.928bb00085e3de30

“That Domain Lord Jiang Gui was truly unlucky. He survived the fierce battle at the Heavenly River only to be killed by Qu Yan, the second young master of the Qu Clan, on his way back. The atmosphere has been tense lately. For Qu Yan to infiltrate the demonic realm undetected and kill our Domain Lord, the heir of one of the Six Great Clans, so easily…”0f03fa14a9280402

What if the Demon 9f6480f37d Lord did what? A chill ran a2745caa7a down my spine 409b1029f6 just as the 1bcf70a249 speaker abruptly stopped. Then, a horrific scream a776ae84a0 echoed through the inn, 7a2ad6afc6 and I instinctively turned 6256e01930 my head.dcfe582b35b3de9b

There he was, 27db276c23 with his doll-like 6007296b63 face, twirling mustache, 92870b9bd4 and exceptionally pale dc63ee7f0d skin.

Wang Duoju calmly dabbc4c298 wiped the blood fc66ab515e off his fan, 5a7f1a82eb bent down, and 1b726b0535 smiled at the 919f753faa two remaining cultivators, 6198ecbe32 who were still 60b0486f5c alive.435fbd4636536879

The floor of the inn wasn’t level; it sloped slightly. Unfortunately, it sloped towards me, and the severed head, its eyes wide with terror, rolled towards me and stopped right at my feet. I didn’t want to experience the horror of meeting its gaze.812791e1d7f2a6f5

The commotion downstairs subsided, and silence returned. One could easily understand what kind of person Wang Duoju was. The Domain Lord of the Lost Domain’s reputation was enough to frighten those with weaker cultivation. Come to think of it, I had been constantly deceived by his appearance. As someone who had once been aligned with ‘Yu Ke,’ despite his refined and elegant appearance, his hands were stained with blood.45db958f093abe96

《Heavenly Demon Tribulation》 was primarily focused on the protagonist.

If someone were to interrupt, the consequences would be unbearable. Although the boy’s physical condition had improved, his dantian was completely destroyed, and his cultivation foundation was in shambles.

Ah Jiu had mentioned that Yu Ke had a residence in the Dragon Nightmare Domain, right next to the Valley of Ghosts. Apparently, Yu Ke had been captivated by the scenery while passing through and used a spell to create a small wooden house there. The interior was quite simple. Therefore, Gu Jincheng wouldn’t know about its existence and wouldn’t have bothered setting up any barriers.d1edef4b6ce7627a

I planned to stay there after healing Song Qiyuan’s injuries. That way, I wouldn’t have to worry about Gu Jincheng finding us, and Song Qiyuan could stay in a clean and safe environment.

The two-headed lion carriage had rested enough, so it was time to pick up the pace. Even if we departed tomorrow morning, we should arrive at the border of the Dragon Nightmare Domain in the northernmost region within a week. I would tell Ah Jiu to inform Gu Jincheng that I wouldn’t be returning for a while when we passed by the Demon Palace. Gu Jincheng, accustomed to Yu Ke’s capricious nature, likely wouldn’t react much.e6d97d5a4c650bfe

I cautiously instructed the two-headed lion to circle the area a few times before setting a course for the Valley of Ghosts.
