The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 902: She Has a Thread of Demon Soul!

Siheng was also afraid that the Demon Ruin would open again and the Demon Clan would make a comeback. Because this time, there wouldn’t be so many immortals to protect the world. These cultivators don’t even have a single person at the Great Achievement stage; how could they withstand the mighty army of the Demon Clan?

The Great Protector clicked her tongue with a smile, but she seemed to be gasping for breath, and her voice became even weaker: "Don’t disbelieve me; this is indeed the King’s order. We can only obey. After wandering outside for so many years... however, it’s not like we haven’t gained anything, right? Nanli, you, a Death God, haven’t you also fallen into the trap?"

If they couldn’t go home, then they would make sure the Immortal World would never have peace and would suffer great losses. It wouldn’t be in vain for the reputation of their Nine Great Protectors!

Siheng had previously suspected that this matter was related to the Demon Clan, but at that time, he was in a hurry and didn’t have time to sort out his thoughts. However, the Great Protector had already reached the Demon Venerable realm, and her memories were not easy to probe.

Just as he was about to ask Nanli if she had any ideas, Qing Feng suddenly exclaimed, "Her... her appearance!"

The two of them looked over again and saw that the Great Protector was aging at an incredibly fast rate. Her face was covered with wrinkles, and her hair turned white!

"Not good, she has reached the end of her life!" Nanli shouted.

The Great Protector had no strength left, but she still managed to hold on to her last breath and took one more look at Siheng before she completely passed away. Because she had the Vajra Pestle on her, even her physical body couldn’t be preserved. With a gust of wind, she turned into a puff of dust and drifted away with the wind.

The Demon Clan people also had souls, but apparently, these protectors had been prepared. After death, their souls also vanished. All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

The Vajra Pestle fell to the ground, making a clanging sound. It was not stained with a single drop of blood. It seemed as if they had never encountered the Asura of the Demon Clan.

Qing Feng was still stunned and asked, "What’s going on? Why did she suddenly die?"

Nanli explained, "The lifespan of the Demon Clan people is not long. Among them, the Asura Clan can live up to ten thousand years, and only a few Asuras can reach about fifty thousand years. She has reached her limit. This is natural death from old age."

With that, she went to pick up the Vajra Pestle. Siheng grabbed her and said, "Let me do it."

She was now pregnant and it wouldn’t be convenient for her to do such things. Nanli raised her eyebrows and just let him have his way.

Qing Feng scratched his head and said, "Fifty thousand years is not short either!"

"But do you know how long the lifespan of a cultivator is once they ascend?" Nanli countered.

Qing Feng did know this and replied, "If an immortal doesn’t encounter any accidents, they will live as long as the heavens!" ƒreewebɳovel.com

Compared to living as long as the heavens, fifty thousand years indeed seemed like a short lifespan.

Siheng wiped the Vajra Pestle clean and then let Nanli put it away. He continued, "No wonder the Great Protector has always been longing to go home."

But Nanli’s expression changed as she said, "How is the Second Elder? The Demon Clan Asura incited Qingwu to attack me. They clearly know where the Glassy Bottle is. Since the Great Protector came here, there should be someone else going to Penglai Island."

Siheng also thought of this and his heart sank. He took out the Telestone, but he couldn’t contact Qiao Nanyi at all. His face turned cold, but he dared not leave Nanli alone. He grabbed her hand and used the Transfer Talisman to go to Penglai Island.

"Your Majesty! Take me with you!" Qing Feng shouted.

But they had already disappeared. He curled his lips. If they wouldn’t take him, then he would fly there by sword!

Penglai Island was already in ruins. The disciples had been dead for a long time. Nanli had been to the back mountain of Penglai Island before, so she directly teleported there with Siheng. However, on the way, they saw that the Spirit Tree was already slowly withering, with yellow leaves falling. It was clear that the Glassy Bottle had been taken out.

They didn’t hold out much hope in their hearts. Indeed, when they arrived under the Spirit Tree, there were obvious signs of a fight. The ground seemed about to collapse. There was no sign of the Glassy Bottle, nor of the Demon Clan Asura. But Qiao Nanyi was lying on the ground with a sword in hand, and there was still a strong demonic aura emanating from his body. It was unclear whether he was alive or dead.

The two of them didn’t have time to chase anyone anymore. Even if they wanted to, they wouldn’t be able to catch up. They approached Qiao Nanyi to see if he was dead or alive and how severe his injuries were. However, Siheng’s steps paused, and he stopped Nanli. His voice was calm, clearly very composed: "He probably fell under a curse. Don’t go over there."

Nanli said helplessly, "I’m just pregnant, not a defenseless weak woman."

"A’Li, I am your husband. It is my duty and responsibility to protect and take care of you."

He had been absent for a while and wanted to make up for it. "Didn’t you already probe Qingwu’s memories? What else is there to worry about? Besides, this kind of thing doesn’t apply to me. Just hearing it makes me feel uncomfortable all over," Nanli hugged herself. "Hurry up. If we keep arguing here, even if your Second Elder isn’t dead, he will be soon."

Siheng sighed softly, unable to do anything about her, and stopped blocking her. He was already an immortal, and the demonic aura didn’t affect him much. But Nanli was still at the Nascent Soul stage, and in his eyes, her body was frail. Sure enough, the demonic aura also specifically targeted the weak. His heart tightened, wanting to help Nanli dispel the demonic aura.

"Don’t be nervous," Nanli told him, and then strangely added, "Stop being sad. The demonic aura has entered my body; you help me absorb it." This was naturally said to Yun Jianchu. Since he was inside her, he had to do the work. However, Yun Jianchu still indignantly accused her: "You! How vicious you are! You killed us Asura, and now you want to use me!"

"Hurry up! If I choose to commit suicide because of the demonic aura entering my body, you will die with me, and you won’t be able to see your son," Nanli threatened.

"Who cares about that son who doesn’t recognize his mother," Yun Jianchu said, but still obediently did as she asked.

Nanli fearlessly approached Qiao Nanyi. She turned him over and saw that Qiao Nanyi was severely injured and had already fainted. His lips were turning black, and there was a wound on his chest that was slowly burning, with the demonic aura spreading from there.

"This is the Asura Blood Fiend Palm," Nanli said gravely. "Even an immortal’s body might not be able to withstand this palm. He is only at the Deity Forming stage; it’s already a miracle that he’s still alive."

She was about to tear open Qiao Nanyi’s clothes to see the size of the wound clearly when Siheng grabbed her hand, his eyes sharp.

Nanli looked up, blinked, and said, "What? Are you jealous? He is your Second Elder. Shouldn’t saving him be the priority?"

Siheng’s stunningly handsome face had turned slightly pale. His hand was trembling slightly as he said, "You have a thread of Demon Soul in you?"

Even though he didn’t like her touching other men, he always restrained himself and wouldn’t stop her from doing these things. He knew what was important. But now...

He couldn’t stay calm! She had a thread of Demon Soul in her! What did this mean?

It meant that her body could easily be occupied by this thread of Demon Soul!

Nanli patiently explained, "If I hadn’t shown that little flaw just now, you wouldn’t have noticed, right? Although she is a member of the Asura, she is useless. I have already sealed her. There is no need to worry."
