Otherworldly Desert Dust

Chapter 248 - 204: I Destroyed Your Heavenly Court?

"On the mountain, there’s a mantis releasing a spiritual attack!"

Wu Hen, enduring the pain, pointed toward the direction of Clay Rocky Mountain and conveyed this information to the Yinji woman beside him.

Liu Mengying looked in the direction Wu Hen was pointing and indeed saw a figure sneaking around.

"Zhuo Si, kill that mantis!" Liu Mengying, realizing that creature was the culprit behind their spiritual turmoil, immediately commanded one of the black-clad swordsmen.

The black-clad swordsman transformed into a crow and flew toward Clay Rocky Mountain. As he neared the Jade Lady Mantis, he transformed back into human form and raised his sword to strike at the Jade Lady Mantis.

The Jade Lady Mantis, extremely cunning, instantly twisted her slender body and hid within Clay Rocky Mountain upon being discovered.

Zhuo Si, the black-clad swordsman, was about to pursue when he suddenly got entangled by several Silver Winged Mantises and had no choice but to retreat back to the ranks of the Yinji Sect.

"Damn it, how did we get so far away from the other Human Clan members??" The White Ghost Knight, as if suddenly realizing, looked around the battlefield only to find that the main Human Clan forces were several kilometers away from them.

As this little team, as if hexed, ventured closer to the Insect Race’s clay nest, no wonder they were trapped in trouble with no other Human Clan members assisting; they were under the influence of the Jade Lady Mantis.

"We must cut through from this direction; we cannot lag behind anymore, or the Red Zhe Army will overwhelm us," Liu Mengying said.

After saying this, Liu Mengying’s gaze fell on the waste spouse beside her.

"How far are we from Death Omen Yuan You?" Liu Mengying asked.

"Not too far now, but apart from those dreadful insects, we still need to fight our way through other Human Clan competitors," Wu Hen said.

"You don’t need to worry about that; they won’t be able to reach Death Omen Yuan You," Liu Mengying said.

Upon hearing this, Wu Hen suddenly realized something.

In front of Death Omen Yuan You there was a curtain of certain death; no matter if it was the Holy Sect, Zhenwu, Longevity... anyone who touched the curtain of death would die.

To reach Death Omen Yuan You, one must first embrace death.

"It’s truly unfortunate," Wu Hen couldn’t help but express his shock.

It really was most unfortunate!

So this Yinji woman was the one that slipped through the net initially at the Yinji Heavenly Court!

He and Little Yi had killed the Lord of Yinzhou back then, and subsequently wiped out all members of their Yinji Heavenly Court; they thought it impossible to encounter any so-called underworld priests in this region, yet here was one.

Yin Pole Xuan Woman, Wu Hen remembered the revered title from their Yinji Heavenly Court distinctly. The glacier beauty before him belonged to that now-nonexistent little court. Stranded alone in the mortal world, looking at her frail appearance just now, she really didn’t have much mana left, making it the easiest time to bully her!

It was really a narrow path for enemies!

Wu Hen suddenly found that the Nuwa God End also followed some sort of karma, just so magically thrusting him into the midst of these few desolate divine officials.

One can only imagine Liu Mengying gasping back to life if she knew the person before her was the very culprit responsible for her wandering in the mortal world.

"They are greedy, deceived by Death Omen Yuan You, even if I tell them the truth, they will not believe..." Liu Mengying said to Wu Hen.

Liu Mengying knew that her underworld husband was too kind, too weak, and always retained his humanity.

But since they had joined the Yinji Sect and become officials in charge of mortal life and death, they, like other immortals, needed to transcend the tribulations of the mortal world.

Liu Mengying believed she was now facing her tribulation.

Otherwise, how could such a grand Yinji Heavenly Court vanish just like that.

As long as she could obtain the Death Omen Yuan You, her mana would be restored, and whether to stay or leave would naturally be her decision to make.

"It’s just that the risk is too high, we could also vanish into thin air..." Wu Hen said.

"I would rather die here than degrade to a mortal!" Liu Mengying declared resolutely.

"You still have such a temper," Wu Hen shook his head.

"Hmph, if it weren’t for your house arranging this ridiculous ghost marriage for you, you would already be a lone spirit between heaven and earth! It’s because I became an underworld priest that you now hold the position in Yin Department. Officially, you are my husband, but in reality, you are still subordinate to me. I do not expect you to assist me, but please do not question my decisions!" Although Liu Mengying had held back for a long time, she still blurted out these words.
