Chapter 10

Absolute Strength

However, this admiration only lasted for the blink of an eye before a huge pressure swept towards her.

For the first time in her life, Kong Rui felt fear. It was a deep fear of power. This man was terrifyingly powerful.

“Little Birdie, leave this place quickly,” Kong Rui said softly.

Unexpectedly, as if he had heard it, the man frowned and the entire mountain range instantly shook. Kong Rui and the Vermilion Bird were enveloped by that terrifying aura.

In the face of this absolute power pressure, her ninth level spiritual body was defenseless.

But it was too late to escape now. The man’s power spread like a flood.

Kong Rui immediately bit her finger and drew a circle around her.

She restricted herself in the circle!

“Go home.”

The commotion on Spirit Mountain was too great, and it shook the capital not far away. The queen sat by the window and saw the black smoke rising from the direction of Spirit Mountain. Her expression was a little ugly. “Why is there such a huge commotion? Could that person still be alive?”

In the next moment, a spatial teleportation black hole appeared in the room, and Nie Yin and Li Ling escaped in a sorry state.

The queen was delighted and hurriedly went forward to support Nie Yin.

“Nie Yin, are you okay?”

“Aunt.” Li Ling rushed forward and hugged her. “I almost died.” She cried.

Only then did the queen recognize her. “Ling Ling, how did you become like this?” Before Li Ling could reply, Wen Qiong hurried over.

“Where’s the Soul Return Flower?” Wen Qiong’s eyes quickly swept across the two of them. When she saw that they were empty-handed, she almost couldn’t control the anger in her heart.

Why hadn’t they taken out her Soul Return Flower yet?

Seeing that the two of them didn’t answer, Wen Qiong pounced forward and asked anxiously, “Didn’t you guys say you went to find the Soul Return Flower for me? Where’s the flower?”

Nie Yin’s expression instantly darkened. He had almost died trying to find the Soul Returning Flower for her, but in the end, he didn’t even get any concern.

“Let go!” Nie Yin pushed her away with a cold expression.

It was only when she was pushed away that Wen Qiong came back to her senses, but she was stunned by his terrifying gaze.

Seeing that the situation was bad, the queen pulled Wen Qiong behind her. “Qiong’er was too frightened by the earthquake on the mountain, so she’s spouting nonsense here. Don’t take it to heart.”

Nie Yin sneered and sized up his nominal fiancée for the first time.

She was pretty and talented. Most importantly, she was born with a phoenix essence. She was indeed a good candidate for marriage, but she could not even hatch a beast egg.

Why was she so anxious to get the Soul Return Flower? Could it be that she had some difficulties? Nie Yin narrowed his eyes.

Li Ling, who was standing at the side, felt wronged for Nie Yin, so she said, “Cousin, Brother Nie and I have tried our best. Look, I’m already disfigured. I don’t even know if there will be a scar or not.” She scratched her body as she spoke.

However, Li Ling didn’t take it to heart. She thought that she had been scratched by something on the mountain. She wanted to ask a doctor to take a look later and prescribe some ointment to stop the itch.

Wen Qiong had already completely calmed down. She resented Li Ling, but on the surface, she said weakly, “Spirit Mountain’s earthquake made me so afraid. When I thought about how you and my sister were both on Spirit Mountain, I was extremely anxious. When I saw that you were both fine, I was too happy, so I spoke without thinking. I hope Young Master Nie can forgive me.” With that, she even bowed weakly.

Nie Yin didn’t believe her explanation at all. The queen hurriedly came out to smooth things over.

“Young Master Nie and Ling’er are tired and Qiong’er is frightened. Hurry up and rest. I’ve already prepared a guest room.”

Nie Yin thought to himself that if not for the fact that she was born with phoenix essence, who would want to stay in this palace and watch them put on a show?

However, the queen had already given him a way out, so he followed her back reluctantly.

Even in the house, he was still holding Kong Rui’s headband tightly in his hand.

In the Demon Abyss, a group of all sorts of demon beasts gathered at the entrance. The commotion on Spirit Mountain was too great, and even those in the Demon Abyss sensed it.

“What’s going on with Spirit Mountain? Why is there such a violent earthquake?”

“Shit, Rui Rui is still there.”

“That’s right. Why isn’t Rui Rui back yet?”

“She hasn’t used the life-saving talisman I gave her before she left. She should be fine.”

The other said with a bitter expression, “What if Rui Rui didn’t have the time to use it?”

“You jinx!” He was knocked on the head.

“Where’s Boss Kong? You torture Rui Rui every day, but now, you don’t even care about Rui Rui’s life?”

They were clamoring, but in the next moment, a demonic wind blew. Kong Niang stared in the direction of Spirit Mountain with a solemn expression. She stretched out her finger to calculate and frowned deeply.
