Chapter 3356: The Fall of Kunlun Capital (17) The Return of the Holy Land of Luoshen

Chapter 3356: The Fall of Kunlun Capital (17) - The Return of the Holy Land of Luoshen

Ye Yan grabbed a handful of burnt soil from the ground, kneaded it a few times and then scattered it.

He asked: "When exactly did it happen?"

The answer came from the law enforcement officers of the complex patrol in the satellite city of Kunlun Capital. "It happened yesterday evening. Because this manor is relatively remote, it was not until late at night that a casual cultivator passing by discovered it and reported the case."

Then, the third group of people came early this morning.

The third group is a department that specializes in handling special matters... The manor here was completely destroyed, and there were many corpses inside, a small number of them were male cultivators, and most of them were eunuchs.

The bloody massacre and annihilation of an entire family alarmed the [Third Group] of [Nantianmen].

The main competition of the [Battle of Twelve Cities] has ended, and the school competition also used too many high-end law enforcement officers, so the [Third Group] was free... Ye Yan left Ah Ma SIR to assist other law enforcement officers in continuing to be responsible for the affairs of the [Purple Sky Cup], so as to avoid being accused by other classes of their group not doing anything and then happily running to the crime scene in the satellite city.

He still prefers solving cases more.

"Do you know what this manor was originally used for?"

"We've inquired about it. This is a high-end resort." The law enforcement officer on the scene said quickly: "We found some resort member lists in some collapsed houses. They are all wealthy or noble guests."

"No female body was found?" Ye Yan asked suddenly.

The on-site law enforcement officer was stunned for a moment, then said subconsciously, "No."

"In a high-end resort for rich men and women to have fun, there isn't even a single female employee?" Ye Yan frowned and asked, "Don't you find it strange?"

"This... is a bit strange." The on-site law enforcement nodded, "Master Ye, what should we do next?"

Ye Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's ask the residents nearby. We don't have any clues for now... Also, let's take the bodies back for inspection."

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Ye Yan jumped onto a roof that was mostly collapsed alone and looked around.

"It's very simple to know what happened. Just let me take a picture." The voice of the mirror spirit sounded suddenly.

A very important function of [Realm of Reincarnation] is [Backtracking], which can reflect things that happened in the past. The longer the time interval, the greater the consumption - this was just something that happened yesterday, so the consumption was very small, and Master Mirror Spirit was rarely generous.

"Then do as you say." Ye Yan responded directly.

Master Jingling was stunned into silence. After a long while, he said, "I thought you would refuse."

"Why should I refuse?" Ye Yan asked in surprise.

Mirror Spirit: "People like you like to challenge difficult problems... If you know the answer right away, you will lose interest very quickly."

Ye Yan said expressionlessly: "The longer the murderer is at large, the more innocent people may be harmed. In the face of human life, shouldn't personal interests be put aside? If you know why I would refuse... Don't worry, I'm not that pedantic."

The mirror spirit didn't speak.

Ye Yan's eyes were suddenly covered with a faint golden light... He saw something.

After a long while, Ye Yan frowned and muttered to himself: "It's actually a [Stranger]?"

……

……

【Luoshen】Holy Land.

A white spirit boat slowly sailed in, and then went directly from the highest channel into the center of the holy land, the land of the Holy Lord.

"Hey, that spirit boat is... I don't think I've ever seen it before?"

"You are ignorant, right? That is the [Lapis Lazuli Jade], the highest level spiritual boat gifted to our holy land by the [Alliance]. Only the Holy Lord and the Holy Maiden are qualified to use it... The Holy Maiden should be on it right now!"

"Hey, our Holy Land is so blessed!"

“Although you have suffered a lot before, now that you have escaped from the various branches of the [Flower God Palace] and come to [Luo Shen], you don’t need to worry about the persecution of the [Flower God Palace] in the future! But let me be frank with you, if you have second thoughts, don’t blame the Holy Land for being ruthless!”

The nuns nodded and said in awe, "This is natural!"

……

The Mortal Kingdom of the Holy Land of [Luoshen]... The city is already quite large, and now it has even begun to expand satellite cities in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast with the Mortal City as the center.

The construction is in full swing. Even from high altitude, you can see a large number of excavators and transport vehicles at work.

The purely mechanical working tool made Mr. Luo curious and he took a closer look.

Seeing this, Si Wuxie, who was carefully serving on the side, said softly, "Sir, these machines are all rented from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are more convenient and cheaper than manpower. They can work non-stop all day long. Thanks to this, the construction of the Mortal Kingdom can be so smooth."

"It was provided by Huoyun City, right?" Young Master Luo said with a smile.

Si Wuxie nodded, "Yes, the Holy Land is cooperating with Iron Rakshasa. Currently, Iron Rakshasa has planned to relocate 5 million people from [Fire Cloud City] to the Holy Land Mortal Country. It is expected to be divided into three phases and will be completed within two months. In addition, there are a large number of technicians and materials..."

She slowly spoke about the development of the Luoshen Holy Land during this period.

With the population support of [Huoyun City], the population of the Holy Land has naturally been greatly supplemented... As for [Huoyun City], it will not fall into a population crisis because of this.

Li Qingtong announced that the Holy Emperor Dojo would be built in Huoyun City. Only a few days had passed, but the Huoyun City Government was now receiving household registration transfer applications from various lower continents every day, and several households were unable to handle them all.

In just a few days, millions of people are expected to move in.

After finishing talking about the Holy Land, Si Wuxie asked tentatively: "Sir, Huoyun City is currently developing very well, but Chentang Pass is currently..."

"There is no need to deal with the matter at Chentang Pass." Young Master Luo said directly: "Just let it develop naturally."

Si Wuxie nodded. She was in the image of the young master in her heart, so whatever the young master said was what she believed.

As they were talking, [Liuli Jade] had already docked. On the huge platform, Li Qingtong was already waiting there… Behind her were a dozen female cultivators from the Holy Land. They were all women from the [Yinkui] sect that had followed Li Qingtong in the past, and now they were already the elders of the Holy Land.

"Son!"

"This slave has met the young master!"

The more pious the female cultivators of the holy land become, the greater the status of the Holy Emperor will be... Boss Luo sensed it a little bit, and even if he stripped away the identity of [Holy Emperor of Fire Cloud] at this time, it would still be a considerable income.

The initial investment has even been paid off, and what follows will be continued profits.

But compared with the entire [Lord God's World]... there is actually no comparison.

Young Master Luo looked at Li Qingtong and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, Saint Qingtong. The Holy Land is becoming more and more prosperous, and Saint Qingtong has made an indelible contribution."

Li Qingtong was surprised and overjoyed. "Sir, the demon king has arrived. Do you want to meet him now, or take a bath and change clothes first?"

As if he hadn't noticed the eager eyes of the elder female cultivators around him, Master Luo said calmly, "Don't keep the guests waiting for too long."

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away." Li Qingtong nodded, "Sir, follow me."

……

Burning incense, the lingering aroma fills the air.

On the attic, there are open areas on all sides, with a panoramic view of the holy land. A gentle breeze blows, the spiritual energy cleanses, and fairy music can be heard faintly in the distance. It is truly a paradise on earth.

"It's a good place, but it's a bit too feminine... Hey, this Holy Emperor Huoyun actually assigned his precious followers to a group of women. What a waste."

The one who spoke was a sturdy man with white beard on his temples, drooping eyes and a white forehead... His true form was a powerful tiger demon, of racial bloodline, with great combat power, and he was one of the commanders of the guards of the [Demon Emperor's Palace].

“Xie Hu, be careful with your words. After all, this is the land of the Holy Emperor of the Human Race.” The other one looked weak and quiet, with a face like a peach blossom. He exuded an inexplicable fragrance all the time, and there were often starlight twinkling between his hair… There was a big purple knot tied behind him, like a butterfly wing.

"Die Ji, you are too cautious." The sturdy man... Xie Hu said indifferently: "He is the Saint Emperor of the human race, not the Great Saint of the demon race. Even if I curse him in my heart, what can I do? Can he hear it? I cursed him! The Donghuang Bell has been taken away, can I still have some emotions?"

Die Ji frowned, but since Ming Wang didn't say a word, she was too lazy to continue arguing with Xie Hu.

"This holy land of Luoshen doesn't even have an emperor!" Xie Hu snorted coldly.

"Here it comes." Ming Wang suddenly said, "Evil Tiger."

Xie Hu immediately shut his mouth. He was just bored and wanted to vent his anger. The Human Saint Emperor was in front of him, so he should shut up. No demon clan could forget the thunder of judgment that filled the sky of the Demon Emperor's Palace.

Xie Hu picked up the teacup and took a big sip - why did this tea taste so strange?

Just when he was wondering, a terrible cramping pain came from his abdomen. Xie Hu's face changed slightly... With his cultivation level and his body so strong that he could blow up a weak human emperor who had just entered the emperor level with a single punch, how could he have a stomachache?

Do you understand the value of being the commander of the guards of the Demon Emperor's Palace?

"What's wrong?" Die Ji felt something was wrong and asked in a low voice.

Xie Hu tightened his anus, "Nothing... nothing, I just can't get used to sitting."

Die Ji was about to say something, but her face changed slightly and she immediately held her breath... The door of the pavilion opened, and a man whose face could not be seen walked in slowly.

Behind the man, Li Qingtong and Si Wuxie followed on his left and right.

Ming Wang frowned slightly at this time. He would not open his eyes on his own initiative. He has been cultivating this pair of divine eyes for thousands of years... He wondered if after opening his eyes, he would be able to see through illusions and look directly at the other person's true face?

——There is no need to do such provocative behavior.

Ming Wang slowly stood up to greet him. He was the Ming Wang of the demon race, and the other party was the Holy Emperor of the human race. They had equal status and could talk to each other as equals.

"Meet the Holy Emperor Huoyun."

"Your Majesty, you have been waiting for a long time." Young Master Luo smiled casually, "Speaking of which, it was My Majesty's idea that the Demon Realm returned the Chentang Pass to the human race that day."

"Let's go with the flow." Ming Wang also smiled. "I'm sure the Holy Emperor already knows the purpose of my visit today... Let's get straight to the point. What conditions does the Holy Emperor require in order to return the East Emperor Bell to the [Demon Emperor Palace]?"

In an instant, the air in the small building became much quieter.

Die Ji's brows were tense, and Xie Hu didn't even bother to lift his anus. He endured the abdominal cramps and drops of cold sweat fell.

Young Master Luo did not say anything, but just glanced at Si Wuxie beside him.

Si Wuxie understood and waved her hand. A document appeared and slowly floated in front of King Ming. She said sternly, "King Ming, please take a look."

The document floated in front of him, but King Ming still did not open his eyes. He just wiped his hand across the document and then fell silent. He then handed the document to Die Ji.

Die Ji looked at it solemnly, and then frowned continuously.

Written on it is the [ransom] of the Donghuang Bell, which lists dozens of items, including various minerals, materials, elixirs, weapons, and even the human population - the human population here obviously refers to the part of the human race and their descendants who were plundered by the [Demon Realm] and now take root and live in the [Demon Realm].

In Die Ji's opinion, although the population is huge, it is actually the easiest to gather... just divide it among the territories of the major demon kings in the [Demon Realm].

But most of the special minerals and natural treasures unique to the [Demon Realm] would probably really cause the [Demon Emperor's Palace] to bleed heavily at once.

Among them, there are even a group of high-level monsters that can be used as war mounts... These are all strategic materials!

If the [Luoshen] Holy Land took in this batch of supplies, it would become extremely rich. In terms of wealth alone, it might have already reached the level of a top holy land.

Xie Hu's expression was also extremely ugly at this time.

Die Ji quickly sent a message: "Don't be impulsive and do bad things. I know you are angry, and I am angry too, but we are weak! You have to endure it!"

——Am I angry?

Xie Hu's mouth twitched. He felt that when he was young, participating in the final trial of the clan was not so difficult...

"Holy Emperor, do you have any other requests?"

The voice of the Ming King sounded, calm, without any trace of anger.

Die Ji was stunned... Is King Ming going to agree to this extremely demanding [ransom]?

Young Master Luo shook his head and said, "I have also used the Donghuang Bell for a while and I am quite satisfied with it. I have no other requests. If King Ming feels it is okay, you can take the Donghuang Bell away today."

King Ming was slightly surprised, then nodded, "If that's the case, then I will thank the Holy Emperor for his kindness on behalf of all the demons in the world... Take me as a guarantor, as long as I am still in power, the [Demon Emperor Palace] and the [Luo Shen] Holy Land will be friends for generations."

Young Master Luo didn't say anything, but just smiled indifferently. Since this kind of generational friendship has prerequisites, it's enough to just listen to it, and it shouldn't be taken seriously.

The process of exchanging the Donghuang Bell went smoothly. This is the holy land of [Shen Luo] and it would be useless no matter who comes... and no one will stop us.

……

“I didn’t expect things to go so smoothly.”

Sitting on the departing spirit boat, Die Ji was in a trance... Even when the spirit boat passed through the Holy Gate of [Shen Luo] and appeared in the airspace of [Kunlun Capital], the trance did not subside.

"Ming Wang, are you really going to agree to the amount on this list?" Die Ji pondered at this time: "Now that the Donghuang Bell has been returned, after we return to the [Demon Realm]..."

"Die Ji, what do you think?" King Ming asked back.

"Of course I'm not going to deny it." Die Ji said in panic, "What I mean is that we can just delay. After we go back, we can immediately send a small amount of unimportant things over, and the rest can be delivered little by little, every now and then, on the pretext that we need time to collect them. No one from the [Alliance] side participated in the negotiation about the East Emperor Bell this time, so it seems that this must be the private behavior of the Fire Cloud Saint Emperor. I boldly guess that not many people know that the East Emperor Bell fell into the hands of the Fire Cloud Saint Emperor! In this way, we can keep delaying time, and I'm sure that the [Luoshen] Holy Land will not dare to make it public, otherwise it will easily be accused of colluding with the [Demon Realm]..."

"Your idea is very good." King Ming chuckled.

Die Ji was slightly moved, and then said: "In this case, we need to leave [Kunlun City] immediately, the sooner the better... It's best to leave now, only when the Donghuang Bell returns to [Demon Emperor Palace] can we feel at ease."

Ming Wang shook his head slightly.

Die Ji was stunned, "Does your Majesty think this is inappropriate?"

"Why do you think that the Holy Emperor Huoyun didn't have even the most ordinary contract in this transaction?" King Ming asked calmly.

"Is this... afraid of leaving evidence?" Die Ji said subconsciously.

Ming Wangdao: "Let's go back to your previous thoughts. Since you have chosen to delay as much as possible... why didn't you refuse to deliver this batch of supplies from the beginning? Isn't it because you have already acquiesced in your heart that these things will be given sooner or later... and you have no choice but to give them?"

Die Ji's expression changed slightly in an instant.

"You are already afraid without knowing it." Ming Wang chuckled, "Why did he not make any promises and simply let us go? It's because he... doesn't need any promises at all."

Dieji was sweating coldly.

Ming Wang sighed, "The divine thunder of judgment that descended upon the [Demon Emperor's Palace] was far from this person's limit. The Donghuang Bell is even more connected to the life of [Donghuang], but why has it been taken away for so long that it can only be brought back in this way?"

Die Ji immediately knelt down, horrified and said, "It was my ignorance."

"You're not the only one who's foolish."

King Ming smiled bitterly, but slowly opened his eyes. Die Ji gasped and lit up instantly. Her eyes had sunk to the bottom and turned a turbid gray-white color, and two lines of blood and tears flowed out.

"King Ming, you..." Die Ji was shocked.

"You are overestimating your own abilities." Ming Wang sighed, "Thousands of years of hard work have been destroyed in an instant... and I am not even qualified to take a look."

Shaky.

"King Ming!" Die Ji stepped forward in fear and supported him.

"I'm fine." Ming Wang shook his head, "I just don't have this secret skill anymore. Anyway, I never really mastered it."

How could it be so easy?

Even if the secret technique that had been cultivated for thousands of years had not been completely successful... but if it was destroyed now, it would be a waste of all those years of hard work! If Ming Wang's heart was not bleeding, Die Ji would never believe it.

“Ahhh!!! My stomach! My stomach!!!”

At this moment, the evil tiger suddenly fell to the ground and couldn't get up. This true male of the tiger demon clan was howling in pain... However, the strange thing was that along with the evil tiger's roar, his abdomen was swelled up wildly, as if it would burst at any time!

"Xie Hu, why are you..." Die Ji opened her mouth in shock.

“It hurts so much…” Xie Hu roared, “There’s something! There’s something in my stomach… Something is coming out!! Ah——!!! Kill me!! Kill me ah ah~!!!”

The shrill screams pierced through the clouds in an instant!

Amidst the screams and under Die Ji's incredulous gaze, the cry of a cub suddenly rang out!

Die Ji subconsciously covered her mouth, and even Ming Wang couldn't help but show a strange look.

The evil tiger...actually gave birth to a baby on the spot!

And it was a female, with a chubby face.

"what……"

The severe pain of childbirth caused this tiger demon clan warrior to vomit white foam in pain, and finally fainted...

……

……

"This... is impossible. How can there be such a magical potion in this world?"

Ji Ran widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief - she had originally come here to get some medicinal herbs, but happened to run into her master in the pharmacy, using some instruments she had never seen before to prepare potions.

Out of curiosity and eager to learn, Ji Ran took the initiative to inquire and learned that this was a very strange potion - it could make the person who was led into it give birth to a child!

Ji Ran really couldn't believe it, and when Master introduced this medicine, she clearly saw Master sneer...

"Actually, pregnancy is only secondary." The maid said elegantly, "The key is that it can infinitely amplify the pain level during childbirth. This is the most important thing... It can penetrate the soul."

"..."

The maid chuckled again and said, "Only this kind of pain that penetrates deeply into the soul can be the nutrient that breeds [maternal love]."

——Help, Master is so scary!!
