The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 1726 - 1723: Hong Yao

After leaving the Ghost Buddha Sky Cave, the Nine Netherworld Phoenix didn’t speak to Ye Xuan.

It always thought Ye Xuan was very reliable, leaving no loose ends in anything he did.

Yet it couldn’t believe that Ye Xuan had actually forgotten it in the Ghost Buddha Sky Cave.

It was certain Ye Xuan did it on purpose!

If it wasn’t necessary for it to go places with Ye Xuan, it would have started cursing him.

It wasn’t until they were leaving the Ghost Great World that Ye Xuan took the initiative to speak.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix had intended to ignore Ye Xuan, but Ye Xuan’s words shocked it.

"Do you know Hong Yao?"

Ye Xuan casually asked.

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix was suddenly startled and gave up on the "cold war" against Ye Xuan, saying in a deep voice, "She’s not dead yet?"

Ye Xuan responded softly, "What do you mean by ’not dead’?"

However, he was convinced that seeking out the Nine Netherworld Phoenix was the right move.

He had considered asking Bai Ze, asking Gai, asking Wu Muchen.

Those were three options.

But Wu Muchen went to the Heavenly Domain, Bai Ze hadn’t recovered yet, even though he knew about Hong Yao, he couldn’t recount anything specific about her.

Comparing the reluctance of Old Ghost Liu Tree to get entangled with Hong Yao, Ye Xuan felt that even if Gai knew, he wouldn’t say anything.

So he could only find someone willing to say and not afraid to speak.

Thus, that person could only be the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

Hm.

Though the Nine Netherworld Phoenix wasn’t a human.

"During that battle back then, Hong Yao was the most terrifying existence in this world. If it weren’t for her, my Dou Tian Divine Domain would have already broken through the Emperor Pass Great Wall, sealing her with the Heavenly Sea."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix said solemnly.

When speaking of Hong Yao, the Nine Netherworld Phoenix was clearly filled with dread.

However, this news didn’t surprise Ye Xuan, because he had seen it in Youwei’s dreams.

The only thing unexpected to him was that the sea Youwei carried in her dreams was indeed the Heavenly Sea.

And judging from the Nine Netherworld Phoenix’s words, this Heavenly Sea seemed to have originated from Dou Tian Divine Domain’s handiwork?

This is clearly different from the present-day Heavenly Sea.

It seems likely to have been influenced by that battle back then.

"Precisely because of this person, my Dou Tian Divine Domain lost several Dou Tian Kings, but fortunately, in the end, she could not withstand the suppression of the Heavenly Sea and bore the Emperor Pass Great Wall, finally exhausting her strength and dying."

These words from the Nine Netherworld Phoenix left Ye Xuan with a somewhat complex feeling.

In Youwei’s past life, she even killed several Dou Tian Kings?

"You just mentioned Hong Yao, does it mean she’s still alive?" The Nine Netherworld Phoenix stared at Ye Xuan, asking in a deep voice.

Ye Xuan lightly shook his head, saying, "I am merely curious about this person."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix said peculiarly, "Weren’t you involved in that battle? How could you not know about her?"

Ye Xuan touched his nose and said, "I’ve already said, I wasn’t involved."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix stared at Ye Xuan, not believing his words.

This fellow is full of schemes, never speaking honestly.

"I think you’re suffering from memory loss."

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix suddenly chuckled, "But I can indeed tell you some matters about this person."

"Do you know her title back then?"

"Her name is the Hong Yao Immortal Emperor!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan squinted his eyes slightly, saying, "Immortal... Emperor?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix nodded, "Yes, although it’s just a title, it is ample to show the degree of her terrifyingness."

"After all, in my Dou Tian Divine Domain, existences with an emperor title can be counted on one hand."

Ye Xuan remained silent for a moment, then said, "Does Dou Tian Divine Domain still have many hidden plots left in this world?"

The Nine Netherworld Phoenix shook its head slightly, "That is beyond what I can know, for after that battle back then, I was sealed."

At this point, the Nine Netherworld Phoenix shook its head and sighed, quite displeased but helpless.

"Come with me to a place, to see if there are people from Dou Tian Divine Domain."

Ye Xuan took the Nine Netherworld Phoenix and left the Ghost Great World.

As for the place they were heading to, it was naturally the Endless Sea.

Originally, Ye Xuan didn’t intend to bring the Nine Netherworld Phoenix, especially since Youwei had returned and might sense its presence.

But now, Youwei left again to attend to her own matters, so he could naturally bring the Nine Netherworld Phoenix.

Little Qiankun had already sent word that the Sea Abyss would appear ahead of schedule.

Before leaving, Ye Xuan found Ning Fu and took along this young girl.

Although Ye Xuan had no intention of accepting disciples right now, that didn’t stop him from wanting to guide this naturally born Divine Talisman Master.

The young girl Ning Fu, who grew up in Pengxuan Cave Heaven, excelled in various Daoist spells and talismans.

Despite her young age, her accomplishments as a Divine Talisman Master already surpassed those of ninety percent of the world.

She’s somewhat akin to the Confucian little Meng Chan.

However, little Meng Chan is different; after all, he is a reincarnation of a female Saint who disintegrated, naturally possessing two Confucian Lifebound Characters, an aspect even Kong Family’s Kong Liang and Xun Family’s Xun Ji must concede.

Regardless of their youth, they have already set the course for their futures.

In this golden era, inevitably more than one Great Emperor will emerge.

At that time, who knows, there might be Confucian Three Emperors, Divine Talisman Emperor, Spirit Array Emperor, Blade Emperor, and others appearing simultaneously.

This is just the younger generation, not to mention a bunch of the undying old ones eyeing this era.

Even the current Immortal Emperor, the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, his layout from the past, feared to have been for this golden era, although what went wrong in between remains unknown.

"Can you take me with you?"

Just as Ye Xuan found Ning Fu, a little girl came to him.

This little girl was petite and cute but wore an ill-fitting wide Daoist robe.

Her cheeks blushing, she spoke to Ye Xuan with a little hesitation.

It seemed she feared Ye Xuan might refuse, so she added, "It was Grandpa who sent me; he said you would surely agree."

Ning Fu curiously eyed this peer, blinking, saying, "You’re from Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Heavenly Master Dao?"

The little girl looked at Ning Fu in surprise, saying, "You’re from Pengxuan Cave Heaven?"

Ning Fu nodded excitedly, "Yes, my name is Ning Fu, what’s yours?"

The little girl bowed and said, "So it’s Ning Fu junior sister, my name is Zhang Jingtong."

The little girl was precisely Zhang Jingtong, one of the Four Little Heavenly Masters of Dragon Tiger Mountain, reputed to be within the Destiny of the Lotus, most likely to change to purple.

"Hello senior sister." Ning Fu smiled sweetly.

Zhang Jingtong scratched her head bashfully, as she was always the youngest at Dragon Tiger Mountain, rarely being called senior sister.

Then Zhang Jingtong looked at Ye Xuan, blinking, "Can you take me to the Endless Sea?"

Zhang Qingfeng is really adept at spotting opportunities.

Ye Xuan looked at this adorable fresh-faced girl, rubbed his brow, "Alright, since your grandpa Zhang Qingfeng mentioned it, let’s go together."

Zhang Jingtong’s eyes suddenly lit up, then she made a bow and said, "Thank you, Brother Ye."
