While the Blood Prison Great Saint was still lost in his vivid fantasies, Ji Xiaoyu’s room door opened.
Dressed in black, Ji Xiaoyu stepped out of the house, her gaze settling on the Annihilation God Emperor, filled with doubt.
The Annihilation God Emperor’s gaze rested on Ji Xiaoyu, his expression remaining calm.
At this moment, the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor appeared beside Ji Xiaoyu, vigilantly staring at the Annihilation God Emperor.
“Who might you be?” the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor asked in a deep voice, his eyes betraying a strong sense of wariness.
He, strong as a Divine Thought True Immortal, couldn’t see through the Annihilation God Emperor’s cultivation level at all, which gave him the same feeling he got when facing Gu An.
The Annihilation God Emperor spoke up, “Reincarnation Path Emperor, you should remember me.”
He completely ignored the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor, feeling like the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor wasn’t worthy of conversation.
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoyu’s face changed dramatically, her expression one of disbelief, her body trembling as she struggled to compose herself.
Seeing her like this made the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor even more nervous, while the Blood Prison Great Saint curiously looked at Ji Xiaoyu, seeing her in such a state for the first time.
Taking a deep breath, Ji Xiaoyu raised her hand in salute and said, “The junior has seen the Divine Emperor, may I ask why the Divine Emperor has personally come to the Great Heaven and Earth?”
The Divine Emperor?
The Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor appeared to realize something, his look towards the Annihilation God Emperor filled with reverence; he stepped back, half-kneeling, bowing his proud head.
The Blood Prison Great Saint was even more curious about the identity of the Annihilation God Emperor, his blood beginning to boil.
The stronger the Annihilation God Emperor, the more likely his words would come true.
He might yet become a Great Saint of the Great Heavenly Spirit Land!
The Annihilation God Emperor said, “I am here to find someone, a remnant of the Ancient Evil Demons.”
“Ancient Evil Demons?” Ji Xiaoyu asked in surprise.
“Descendant from the Long Family of the Battle Court.”
The answer from the Annihilation God Emperor made Ji Xiaoyu’s pupils widen sharply.
Ji Xiaoyu asked with a frown, “That clan still has descendants? Weren’t they already extinct?”
The Annihilation God Emperor stared at her and queried, “Do you really not know?”
Ji Xiaoyu fell silent.
The Annihilation God Emperor continued, “I am aware your master is from the Dragon Clan, but you must have seen their malice. Should a living person carry such hatred, the catastrophe he could cause is beyond what you or I could foresee.”
“That would not be a catastrophe for one Great Heaven and Earth, but a crisis for the entire universe.”
Ji Xiaoyu replied, “I really don’t know, and currently I am undergoing the Reincarnation Tribulation; I have memories, but not the genuine feelings of my true self.”
The Annihilation God Emperor turned around, his gaze sweeping over the Third Medicine Valley.
Ji Xiaoyu followed his gaze, her heart suddenly trembling as she realized his gaze had fallen on Gu An.
Gu An lay beneath the Mystic Pure Tree, his eyes covered by leaves, as if he were sleeping.
The Annihilation God Emperor looked at Gu An, pausing for a while before shifting his gaze elsewhere.
Ji Xiaoyu didn’t dare disturb him, waiting for him to speak.
If she felt this way, the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor was no different.
After a long time.
The Annihilation God Emperor turned his head towards Ji Xiaoyu and said, “Indeed, his aura and causality are nowhere in this land, but I will draw him out. Once you conclude this lifetime, you may come to assist me, and I will not leave you unrewarded.”
Having said this, the Annihilation God Emperor transformed into his true form, his black robe fluttering, his scale armor glinting with a chilly light, and the darkness beneath his helmet startled the Blood Prison Great Saint enough to widen his eyes.
The Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor glanced over subconsciously, equally intimidated by the Annihilation God Emperor’s appearance.
The Annihilation God Emperor vanished into thin air.
Far away, Shen Xinzi, though unable to hear their conversation, saw the true figure of the Annihilation God Emperor and was startled, rising involuntarily.
Not just him, some curious disciples also witnessed the transformation of the Annihilation God Emperor.
However, the sudden disappearance of the Annihilation God Emperor gave them the illusion that they were seeing things.
The Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor stood up, took a step forward, and asked in a low voice, “Could it be that one from the legends of the Silent Destruction Domain?”
Ji Xiaoyu looked up towards the sky and softly said, “Yes, that’s the one.”
The Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor appeared to be in a trance, and he couldn’t help but ask, “Wasn’t that just a legend? It actually exists… Your Majesty, what is your relationship with him?”
Ji Xiaoyu replied, “I have once received the inheritance he left behind and communicated with his divine thoughts. He could be considered one of my mentors, and this was also the first time I truly saw him. The one just now must have been only an avatar.”
“Avatar?” the Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor exclaimed.
“Yes, an avatar. He has countless avatars, spread across different worlds, all searching for his own way.”
Ji Xiaoyu’s gaze became distant, as if filled with longing.
The Sun and Moon Netherworld Emperor fell silent, equally shaken.
The Blood Prison Great Saint, on the other hand, contemptuously thought to himself, Why doesn’t such a powerful being dare to take a walk in front of the master?
In his view, the Annihilation God Emperor was wary of Gu An.
Time continued to pass.
As dusk approached, Gu An sat up. He stretched lazily, having had a very comfortable sleep.
He even had a dream, as if he had experienced Lifespan Samsara.
But it was not as real as the memories left by Lifespan Samsara.
This made Gu An want to start another round of Lifespan Samsara.
He stood up and walked towards the attic, spotting the White Spirit Rat on the way, which was looking at him with a plaintive gaze.
Gu An noticed that one of its legs was twitching, clearly injured.
It had been at a disadvantage at Long Qing’s place.
“Fortunately, the breakthrough deepened their Path of Returning Primordial Spirit,” Gu An said with a smile, a smug look on his face.
Being cautious was always right!
When he arrived at the front of his attic, Ji Xiaoyu walked out from inside.
“Let’s go up to talk.”
Ji Xiaoyu came up to Gu An and suggested in a low voice.
After that, she went up the stairs first, with Gu An following behind.
Once upstairs and in the room, Ji Xiaoyu began to cast spells, setting up restrictions around the room to prevent others from spying, even utilizing the power of the Primordial Daoist Talisman.
“Is it that serious?” Gu An feigned surprise.
Ji Xiaoyu fixed her gaze on Gu An, her eyes complex.
Gu An touched his face and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Have you awakened memories of your past life? Or rather, have you not gone through Reincarnation Tribulation at all? Who exactly are you?” Ji Xiaoyu asked softly.
Gu An laughed and inquired, “Who do you think I am?”
Ji Xiaoyu looked at him and said, “You take in orphans and give them the Long surname. Could it be that your real surname is Long?”
Suspecting I’m Long Qing?
Gu An couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Wrong guess, I’m actually the ancestor of the Dragon Clan!
Gu An shook his head and said, “How could that be? My surname is Gu. Giving Long Qing the Long surname is because he has it on his back; you’ve known that all along, haven’t you?”
Ji Xiaoyu responded, “I have known for a long time, but I’ve also always had my suspicions. It’s okay if you don’t admit it, and it’s best if you never do because there are beings out there to kill you that have come here. That being is from the ancient legends of the Silent Destruction Domain and may have existed even longer than the Great Heavenly Spirit Land. He is convinced that you are hiding in the Great Heavenly Spirit Land and he will not rest until he finds you.”

Gu An, resigned, said, “I’m truly not the person you think I am, but I am quite curious about this being you mentioned. Is he very strong?”
