Chapter 357: Goodbye, Beautiful One
Without any warning, a man dressed in a long black robe suddenly appeared before the two disciples of Diao Chan Xiu. A gentle breeze swept across the lake's surface, causing his long black hair to flutter and his robe to rustle. Although he made no movements, his calm presence exuded an immense pressure.
He stood there, gazing at the Stunning Woman opposite him with an expression devoid of obsession or fear. Faced with this supreme being from the Demon Realm, he spoke to her as if she were just an ordinary friend.
"You... how could it be you... weren't you dead?"
Staring incredulously at the suddenly appearing man, Night Lotus Demon Ancestor trembled slightly and took a few unsteady steps back.
In that brief moment, she had imagined countless possible individuals who might appear, but among them, Sun Zhe was definitely not one of them. Yet here he was, the last person she expected, and he was now beyond her comprehension.
Beside her, Diao Chan Xiu looked at her master in disbelief. She had never seen her master so flustered; even when facing the esteemed Demon Ancestors, she always maintained her composure. Who was this man? Looking up at the seemingly ethereal Sun Zhe, confusion filled her eyes.
"Honestly, I didn't expect this either. But facts speak louder than words; as you can see, I am still alive."
Sun Zhe's gaze flickered slightly as he spoke slowly. Although the Nine Continents World and the Demon Realm were adversaries, he held no hatred for this sister of Tang Yuexi, or rather, the sister of Nightmoon Demon Ancestor. Perhaps it was a case of loving those associated with someone he cared for; after all, Sun Zhe was just a mortal.
"You are looking for my sister, aren't you?"
After all, Night Lotus Demon Ancestor was a powerful figure from the Realm of the Ancestor Deity, having survived for countless years. After a moment, she finally suppressed her shock and calmly regarded the floating Sun Zhe, softly asking. Though she considered herself extraordinarily beautiful, she knew that her looks held no sway over this man.
"Where is she now?"
Sun Zhe did not hide anything and nodded gently. The reason he had come to Lotus Moon Island was indeed to find his beloved Tang Yuexi.
Although he had anticipated this before, hearing it from Zhou Shao still filled Night Lotus Demon Ancestor with astonishment. She did not know how Sun Zhe had come back to life or how he had arrived in the Demon Realm, but considering that he had slaughtered so many powerful demons back then, if he were to show himself now, countless demon warriors would likely come after him—perhaps even those Demon Ancestors would take action.
At that point, even if Sun Zhe possessed strength akin to that of the former War Clan Supreme War Ancestor, it would not change his fate of falling. After all, the Supreme War Ancestor had died surrounded by numerous foes in the Demon Realm. There were indeed many powerful beings among the demons, even surpassing those in the Nine Continents. In such circumstances, quietly leaving the Demon Realm would undoubtedly be the best choice; yet Sun Zhe chose otherwise.
"My sister is at the center of Lotus Moon Island, within that Stone Mountain. Ever since she returned from the Shura Realm two hundred years ago, she has been in seclusion there; even I have only seen her a few times."
After a brief pause, Night Lotus Demon Ancestor revealed her sister's whereabouts to Sun Zhe. This was not only for his sake but also for her sister's. She could tell that her sister had not been happy over the years, and that unhappiness stemmed from what had happened on the battlefield of the void years ago.
"Asura Clan? Did she go to find Fan by herself?"
Upon hearing this name, Sun Zhe frowned as memories flooded back of that terrifying figure who claimed to be his brother—Fan—who had attacked him mercilessly. He did not know what level of power Tang Yuexi had regained completely; however, Fan's strength was undoubtedly formidable—perhaps even surpassing that of the Death Spirit Demon Ancestor.
"That's right. After my sister returned from the Void Battlefield, she devoted herself to regaining her strength. Once she recovered, she went alone to the Shura Realm. I was supposed to accompany her, but she insisted on going there by herself. Since her return, she has been in seclusion, and I have no idea how her battle with that Van went." The Night Lotus Demon Ancestor understood Van's power, so she had also insisted on going together back then, but she couldn't defy her sister's orders. She still didn't understand what the situation was like back then.
"Thank you!"
Taking a deep breath, Sun Zhe hesitated no longer and swiftly flew toward the direction indicated by the Night Lotus Demon Ancestor. Tang Yuexi was now a powerful Ancestral God Level being; if she truly wanted to conceal her presence, Sun Zhe would not be able to find her immediately.
"Master, who is that person?"
After a moment, once she saw Sun Zhe's figure disappear from view, Diao Chan Scholar finally snapped out of her shock and asked her master in disbelief. She had never seen her master treat anyone this way before and certainly did not expect her master to reveal Master Gu's whereabouts to that man.
Looking back at what had just happened felt surreal; even with her reputation as the most talented individual in the demon race for a century, she found it hard to accept. It wasn't that her perspective was too narrow; rather, she understood her master too well. She knew that with her master's pride, she would never treat a man like this.
"He is the man you have always been curious about—the one who could make your Master Gu infatuated..."
With a gentle sigh, the Night Lotus Demon Ancestor gazed in the direction where Sun Zhe had left, a hint of daze flickering in her eyes as she spoke slowly. She didn't know whether Sun Zhe's arrival would bring fortune or disaster.
"It’s him!"
Diao Chan Xiu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. She hadn't expected that the man she had been so curious about had just stood right before her, so close that she didn't dare to look closely at him—like an exalted Demon Ancestor standing in front of her.
"Weren't you supposed to reach the Realm of the Ancestor Deity within a millennium? That man probably achieved it already. Based on my estimation, he has been cultivating for no more than five hundred years, yet his cultivation... Forget it; telling you this is pointless. Some people are simply incomparable. You must immediately convey my orders: Lotus Moon Island is to be completely sealed off from now on—no entry or exit!"
With a soft sigh, the Night Lotus Demon Ancestor's figure gradually faded away until she vanished from sight. Only Diao Chan Xiu remained standing there in shock, her usually proud eyes filled with disbelief as she repeatedly muttered two phrases:
"Five hundred years! Realm of the Ancestor Deity!"
However, this revelation did not catch Sun Zhe's attention because he had already arrived at the very center of Lotus Moon Island, standing before a Stone Mountain.
This Stone Mountain was not very tall—only about a hundred feet high—and was artificially constructed. A highly concealed formation surrounded it for thousands of feet; even top-tier experts might struggle to break through it. However, this posed no difficulty for Sun Zhe.
With the assistance of Tongjiao Master, he had truly become a powerful being at the Realm of the Ancestor Deity level. His comprehension of the Law of Slaughter had reached true mastery and transformed into a Destruction Rule that could instill fear in countless strong beings.
Above Law is Earth Rule; Rule of Power constitutes the foundation of Earth and represents its supreme force. However, different rules exhibit different powers. The Destruction Rule is known as the rule governing Destruction Force between realms; there are indeed very few things it cannot break through—at least this formation was definitely not one of them!
Walking leisurely, Sun Zhe stepped into the formation without causing even a ripple, as if the formation before him did not exist at all.
Moments later, Sun Zhe stood before the entrance of the Cave within the Stone Mountain. Looking at the stone door so close at hand made his breath quicken unexpectedly; he had killed countless strong beings over these past few centuries without feeling nervous at all. Yet now, facing a mere stone door made him anxious—perhaps it was due to sensing that familiar aura that made him tense up.
Taking a deep breath, Sun Zhe's right hand quickly rose and gently pressed against the stone door. A surge of power was applied to the stone door, slowly pushing it forward.
"Creak..."
The harsh sound of friction followed, and the heavy stone door, weighing over a thousand pounds, was pushed open by Sun Zhe. Light streamed in, and Sun Zhe's gaze shifted. A delicate figure in white appeared before him, her long blue hair shining brilliantly. The trembling in her eyes made Sun Zhe feel a pang of guilt.
"You've lost weight..."
His lips moved slightly, and after a moment of silence, Sun Zhe finally uttered these three words softly. Centuries of longing and concern seemed to condense into these three words, which carried everything and encompassed all his thoughts.
Hearing those trembling words, the fragile person in the cave couldn't help but let tears flow from her eyes, tracing down her delicate face, drop by drop onto the ground. Without hesitation, she threw herself into Sun Zhe's embrace, abandoning all restraint.
"I'm sorry, Tang Yuexi..." Holding the beauty tightly in his arms, Sun Zhe's voice trembled slightly as he spoke softly with self-reproach.
"I... don't blame you..."
Nestled tightly in Sun Zhe's embrace against his solid chest, Tang Yuexi slowly replied. Her hot tears continued to flow down, but they were not tears of sorrow; they were tears of overwhelming joy.
