Miracle Doctor Abandoned Daughter The Sly Emperor's Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

The Twenty-fourth Underground Monarch

“You’ve saved the lives of all my family . If there is any request, you will have my sweat, blood, and loyalty . ” Said the disciple of the Ghost Sect .

Yan Che nodded and waved his hand, giving the “informant” a sign to leave .

Yan Che and Lai Gu had been taking over the management of the Ghost Door since Ye Lingyue’s confinement . The former one even built a good relationship with the Killer Hall, showing the potential of sharing a half of the power with it in the capital of Da Xia .

Of course, Hong Shizi, who controlled the Buddhist Monks Sect, knew little about Yan Che’s move . Actually, the trades he managed to s.n.a.t.c.h was nothing but what the Ghost Sect intentionally given up .

“The Hong Family is unsurprisingly treacherous . They are trying to overthrow the court . We must inform the master as quick as possible . ” Lai Gu opened the envelope and took a glance .

The letter from Chen Hongru saying he was willing to offer help for Hong Fang was a complete fabrication .

If Chen Hongru really had the thought of taking over the throne, what was the benefit of helping the Hong Family to fight instead of just do it himself? This letter, which gave a bit of hope to Hong Fang, was a counterfeit one made by Yan Che and Lai Gu who were instructed to do so by Ye Lingyue .

“Messages from the North Qing, informing us the master is cultivating in solitude so that she cannot contact us for now . ” Yan Che said gravely .

Spending two years under Ye Lingyue’s supervision, this naïve young man had already been trained into a well-experienced vice-master of the Ghost Sect .

With his chiseled face and a touch of murderous expression following his every movement, he was well respected at the Ghost Sect .

“I wonder whether the master can make it back on time . As what it is said on the letter, the Hong Family made the decision to start their scheme before the Imperial Contest . ” Said Lai Gu, trying to figure out a solution .

“We stick to the plan no matter the master comes back or not . You need to come up with a way to warn the prince, Xia Houqi, that the Hong Family is aiming for no good . I will try to notify General Lan . Other than these, however, we still have one big problem . ” Yan Che frowned .

“Are you worrying that Hong Qingyun will make it to the Reincarnation Realm?” Lai Gu figured out what’s in Yan Che’s mind .

‘If Hong Qingyun really breaks the Reincarnation Realm, no one in the whole Summer City can stop him anymore . ’

“I guess we have to rise to the occasions . Let’s deliver the message to Wu Hou first . I believe they will find a way to deal with it by then . ”

With Wu Hou, General Lan, and General Nie openly standing in opposition with the Hong Family, plus the secret aid from the Killer Hall and the Ghost Sect, Yan Che and Lai Gu were pretty sure that this time no way could the Hong Family get away from this safe and sound .

Storm was rising in the Summer City . At this very moment, Ye Lingyue had already reached the twenty-fourth level of the Underground Energy h.e.l.l .

Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix contained the one and only Heaven and Earth Tribulation which had been here since the ancient time .

Different from the Reincarnation Tribulation, The Heaven and Earth Tribulation was made into two parts . The Heaven included Thirty-six Grades Heaven Energy Palace . The Earth, by contrast, was the collection of Seventy-two Levels Underground Energy h.e.l.l .

The foremost grade of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation was the first to twenty-fourth levels of Underground Energy h.e.l.l; the second grade was the twenty-fifth to the forty-eighth levels; the third grade was the last forty-ninth to the seventy-second levels of the Energy h.e.l.l . These were the Three Grades of the Earth Tribulation .

A long time ago, when Chen Hongru was still the Nine Cauldron Alchemist, he spent one month on breaking the first grade of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation .

It had been eleven days since Ye Lingyue stepped into the Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix .

Twenty-four levels of Underground Energy h.e.l.l, building underground lever after level . The Intimidating Qi was thickened with the levels getting deeper .

The infernal sky was still grey when Ye Lingyue entered the first level of h.e.l.l, but when she took a step into the twenty-fourth level, it was nothing but dense dark firmament in her sight .

Thousands of miles hanging in the sky, Ye Lingyue was sitting on the tip of a star, meditating, so that the Yuan energy which was worn down during the drastic fight could be recovered .

New wounds never cease to appear on the body of Ye Lingyue and Little Squeak . Although the Cauldron provided them the necessary treatment, the pair still looked a bit dispirited .

Licking the dry lip with the tip of her tongue, Ye Lingyue took a bite of the red fruit, feeling down .

This was the fifth time they fight with the Monarch of the twenty-forth level of the Underground Energy h.e.l.l .

The date of the Royal Contest was getting closer and closer . There were only seven or eight days left .

Compared to the former twenty-three Underground Monarchs, the twenty-forth one – Skeleton Demon – had the cultivation matching with a human warrior and the minds clever like a general . Tens of thousands of Evil Spirit soldiers served at his command .

What bothered Ye Lingyue the most was that, as the name said, the Skeleton Demon was composed of dreadfully pale bones .

Resisted of the burning fire and the razing blades, these bones could even remain unharmed after Ye Lingyue’s attack with her spirit energy . Even the black energy of the cauldron couldn’t search out a single crack on them .

Every time when Ye Lingyue and Little Squeak made their determination and ready for a fight, the Skeleton Demon would command the Evil Spirit soldiers besiege them first and wear down their energy . He waited until then to join the fight and brought them down .

“Like everyone else, he must have a weakness . ” With her chin resting on the hand, Ye Lingyue contemplated .

Little Squeak who had fought the whole day was resting on Ye Lingyue’s knees . The beast licked the wounds on its forelimb . A fierce look kindled in its eyes .

The first grade of the Underground Energy h.e.l.l was a perfect training ground for Ye Lingyue and Little Squeak .

The two were surely empowered in these days .

After a while of deliberation, Ye Lingyue ha made her mind .

She decided to sneak into the Skeleton Castle of the Monarch .

After all, no pain, no gain .

“Little Squeak, it is now or never . ” She stood up and stretched out her limbs, smiled towards her companion .

Squinting at the fortress-like Skeleton Castle which was standing afar, Ye Lingyue swallowed an Invisible Dan Pill and kept the Qi Eliminating Bead in the mouth .

Then she took a leap from the sky .

Falling straight down, she landed in the castle .

This Skeleton Castle, belonged to the twenty-fourth monarch of the Underground Energy h.e.l.l, was ten times more gigantic than the one Ye Lingyue saw when she entered the first level of Underground Energy h.e.l.l .

There was a reason that this Monarch was more powerful than the other ones . This whole castle, inside out, had several vestiges of the human manufactures .

The Evil Spirits in the twenty-forth level of the Underground Energy h.e.l.l have already learned the way to make crude transformations .

Thus, for now in the castle, all the moving objects were the Evil Spirits who disguised into the appearance of human or beasts .

However, they were degenerates who didn’t have any wits after all . Even though they knew how to transform, their products were nothing but rustic ugly half-human-half-beast monsters .

With the Qi Eliminating Bead in her mouth, the human smell on her body was completely concealed .

An Evil Spirit, made its way into a shoddy lamia, was pa.s.sing by Ye Lingyue .

“Don’t move . ”

The lamilike Evil Spirit heard a whispering sound spoken right beside its ear . Searching around, no one was there instead .

A ghastly gas bind onto its bottom and climbed up slowly .

It was a serpent-like black wisp of the cauldron energy .

Seeing the energy and sensing the peril, the Evil Spirit could no longer control the shivering of its own body .

It was her!

The Evil Spirit recognized the energy at a glance . This ruthless black energy had wiped out countless Evil Spirits in these days .

So it was called by the Evil Spirits – “the Death Energy”
