1087 Hu Zi!

When Flame Fiends' Progenitor heard it and saw the icy expression, he calmed down, finding it normal . Just as he was about to say something, Su Ming raised his right hand and pointed at him .

Flame Fiends' Progenitor instantly started trembling furiously . Gradually, a large amount of black sweat broke out on his skin . Once it was forced out of his body, it swiftly gathered together and turned into a drop of water that was the size of a fist and gave off a foul stench . When it disappeared before Flame Fiends' Progenitor, an incomparably light feeling rose within him

"The seal has been broken . Huo Kui, don't go to the fifth kiln anymore . If we are destined to meet again, the both of us will surely see each other in the future . I bid you farewell . " Su Ming cast a glance at Flame Fiends' Progenitor before leaving . When he turned around and was just about to leave, his footsteps suddenly came to a halt . He turned his head around and asked, "Where does Zhu You Cai live?"

"In Husband Gazing Mountain," Flame Fiends' Progenitor quickly replied . The excitement of seeing Su Ming had already disappeared by then . The wariness and the powerful impression the other had left one hundred years ago rose again in his mind .

Su Ming nodded . When he cast a glance at Flame Fiends' Progenitor, he saw his cautious demeanor, and his lips slowly curled up into a smile . However, he did not know that when Flame Fiends' Progenitor saw that smile, his heart let out a loud thump, and panic instantly rose in his heart .

'What's going on? This person… kills without batting an eyelid . He's ruthless, merciless, and a calculative man, and now… he's smiling? Something's off! Something's very off!' Flame Fiends' Progenitor became even more cautious, and he took a few instinctive steps back .

"I'm going back to True Morning Dao World . Come… with me," Su Ming said faintly, then turned around without bothering himself with whether Flame Fiends' Progenitor would be conflicted about this . He simply walked into the galaxy .

By his side, the bald crane let out a fake cough before casting a profound glance at Flame Fiends' Progenitor .

"This is very important . Huo Kui, it's best that you think about it carefully . Heh heh…"

At the end, the bald crane still decided to intimidate him . It felt that its current situation was the most wonderful moment in its life . When it frightened Flame Fiends' Progenitor, it did not forget to let out a few snorts .

Flame Fiends' Progenitor was instantly conflicted . He watched Su Ming walking into the distance, then listened to the bald crane threatening him before turning his head around to cast a glance at Flame Fiends' Planet behind him . Hesitation rose within him .

He was actually not worried about his people . With Flame Fiends' divine abilities, even if he was not around, no great accident would happen to them while they were in Divine Essence Star Ocean . And if he followed Su Ming, he might run into a great serendipity .

He was especially certain of it when he remembered Su Ming's actions on their trip one hundred years ago . It immediately gave Flame Fiends' Progenitor confidence . He gritted his teeth, and resolve appeared on his face .

'If I follow such a calculative and conniving person, at the very least, I won't suffer any losses in the hands of other people…' Flame Fiends' Progenitor immediately turned his head around and let out a few shouts at Flame Fiends' Planet .

Immediately, commotion rose within it . Numerous Flame Fiends flew up and stared at their Progenitor . There was a reluctance to part in their eyes, but all of them knelt down and wors.h.i.+ped him simultaneously .

Flame Fiends' Progenitor let out a few more shouts, a telling sign that he was leaving instructions as to what his people were to do after he left . Then, under the gazes filled with the reluctance to part from his people, he turned his head around and turned into a ball of purple flames that charged in the direction Su Ming had left .

… . .

Husband Gazing Mountain was like an eternal existence in the galaxy . There were murmurs from the summit coming down all year long . The beautiful legend surrounding the mountain always stirred up the curiosity of those who came when they heard the murmurs .

At that moment, Su Ming was standing on a stone rising from the ground at the center of the mountain . By his side was the bald crane and Flame Fiends' Progenitor while in front of him was a dark cave .

"Senior Chang He, I would wish to see you . " Su Ming wrapped his fist in his palm and bowed to the mountain cave while he spoke calmly .

The mountain cave was quiet . After a long while, a m.u.f.fled bang came from the mountain cave, and an incomparably plump, hideous, and ugly figure walked out from within .

Zhu You Cai!

His eyes were crimson red . When he walked out, he stared at Su Ming . Conflict and madness were in his eyes . After some time, a calm expression slowly came to his face . He sat down limply by the side, and when he lifted his head to stare at Su Ming, his expression had already returned to its usual calmness .

"You're back," he said faintly .

Su Ming nodded .

"Thank you for helping me when we were in the fifth ocean . About your wife…" When Su Ming said those words, he paused for a moment .

With a calm expression on his face, Zhu You Cai looked at Su Ming's face while waiting for the second part of his words .

"When my level of cultivation is high enough and I can activate the Abyssal World, I will definitely resurrect her," Su Ming stated slowly . His understanding towards Abyss Builders was not great, but he had a general idea that they had an inborn ability to resurrect the dead . However, the prerequisite for it was that Abyss Builders needed to activate their Abyssal Worlds .

Su Ming did not know much about that . The Duke of Crimson Flame did not know about it clearly, but Su Ming believed that as his level of cultivation rose, there would surely come a day when he would understand his race's inborn ability .

"Senior, before that time comes, if you believe me, then I can activate the fifth kiln and have your wife's soul fuse into it to be nourished . With this, we could ensure that during this period of time, her soul will not scatter and vanish . " With sincerity on his face, Su Ming bowed .

Zhu You Cai was silent . After a long time, he stood up, lifted his head, and looked up at the summit .

After some time, Zhu You Cai asked calmly, "Have you heard of the legend regarding this mountain?"

"I've heard of it before . " Su Ming nodded .

"A woman in the past waited for her husband's return on the mountain . As time pa.s.sed and things changed, she did not manage to see him . Her body turned into stone, and the presence of her yearning… turned into the mountain .

"When I was in the fifth kiln, I thought that I was already dead, and I was bent on seeking death… but when I died, I woke up again . Yet when I woke up, I was already here, and my body had become as such .

"I don't know the answer to all of this, but I can sense that there is another person in this person . He… coexists with me . And his name is Zhu You Cai . " He stared at the mountain as his voice echoed in the area .

"Do you want to go to the summit and meet the woman who has turned into stone?" Zhu You Cai moved and turned into a long arc that charged at the summit .

Su Ming stared at the man leaving into the distance . The legend Zhu You Cai had spoken of might not matched with the legend Su Ming had heard, but he still chose to turn into a long arc and charge towards the summit .

When the bald crane arrived at the mountain, its spirits became slightly downcast . At that moment, it stared at the mountain cave with a blank look on its face before also following behind Su Ming in silence .

Ordinary people could not step into the mountain's summit . However, it was different for Zhu You Cai and Su Ming . They did not spend much time before arriving there .

Su Ming saw a stone human at the peak of the mountain .

Based on its appearance, it should have been a woman . She stood at the summit and stared into the distance, her thoughts unknown .

Zhu You Cai stared at the stone, and a complicated expression appeared in his eyes . Perhaps he was not what he claimed to be—he did not wake up not knowing the reason behind his awakening after he died .

Perhaps he knew the reason, but he did not want to say it; it was his secret .

Behind Su Ming, the bald crane shuddered . Grief appeared in its eyes when it looked at the statue . As it watched it, eternity seemed to envelop it . Its current demeanor was something that could not be seen on usual days .

"Why do I feel so miserable, as if my body is about to disappear?" the bald crane mumbled . At that instant, a few scenes flashed in its mind .

Those pictures were indistinct, containing a vague form a woman . She had her back turned toward the bald crane and was staring at a distant galaxy just like the statue .

The bald crane could only sneak peeks at her while standing behind her and hiding its emotions since it did not want to show them .

That lasted till one day when the woman began crying while staring at the galaxy, and the bald crane heard itself speak in a murmur, "So what if it's Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos? So what if my soul will scatter and vanish? I will help you find him!" That voice echoed in the bald crane's mind . As it listened, it heard the anguish contained in the voice .

The bald crane's vision became blurry . The pictures in its mind shattered and turned into fragments . When they were swept away, the bald crane felt awful and sad .

"In other words, before you have enough power to activate your Abyssal World, I will need to protect you . " After a long while, Zhu You Cai averted his gaze from the stone human and turned his head around .

Su Ming remained silent for a moment before he met Zhu You Cai's gaze .

"You can understand it that way . "

"I don't need the fifth kiln to provide nourishment to her . With my power, I can constantly ensure that her soul will not scatter and disappear . " Zhu You Cai closed his eyes . When he opened them again, a hint of fatigue appeared on his face .

"Then… if you don't fulfill your promise to resurrect her, I will make you suffer… the same pain," Zhu You Cai said calmly and lifted his foot to take a step into the galaxy .

"Once I've made a promise someone, I will definitely not go back on my word . Only death will stop me . " Su Ming enunciated each of his words clearly .

He then took a step forward . But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly had a stranger feeling and turned his head around to cast a glance at the bald crane before leaving into the distant galaxy while deep in his thoughts .

While they were going forward, Su Ming walked in front . The bald crane was beside him while occasionally turning its head around to look at the mountain . Behind them were Zhu You Cai and Flame Fiends' Progenitor . The strange expression on the bald crane's face had attracted Zhu You Cai's attention, but he did not say much about it . He also seemed to be immersed in his thoughts .

As the group charged forward, they left the periphery of Divine Essence Star Ocean and moved past Black Ink Planet to step into Western Ring Nebula .

'Western Ring's foreign lands…'

At the moment Su Ming stepped into Western Ring Nebula, a brilliant light shone in his eyes . Before he left the Barren Lands of Divine Essence, his final stop had been Western Ring Nebula's foreign lands .

Once he arrived there, it would be the time for his Ecang clone to devour the other Ecang souls .

When he succeeded, his level of cultivation would increase by an incredible margin . Only then… would he be able to stir up the disaster in True Morning Dao World once he returned to that place .

When Su Ming saw Flame Fiends Progenitor reacting that way, he laughed wryly in his heart before making his expression turn aloof and letting out a cold harrumph . . When Flame Fiends Progenitor heard it and saw the icy expression, he calmed down, finding it normal . Just as he was about to say something, Su Ming raised his right hand and pointed at him Flame Fiends Progenitor instantly started trembling furiously . Gradually, a large amount of black sweat broke out on his skin .

When he turned around and was just about to leave, his footsteps suddenly came to a halt . He turned his head around and asked, Where does Zhu You Cai live?. In Husband Gazing Mountain, Flame Fiends Progenitor quickly replied . The excitement of seeing Su Ming had already disappeared by then .

Flame Fiends Progenitor became even more cautious, and he took a few instinctive steps back Im going back to True Morning Dao World . Come… with me, Su Ming said faintly, then turned around without bothering himself with whether Flame Fiends Progenitor would be conflicted about this .
