104: Don't say I kidnapped you later.

Chapter 104: Don't You Dare Say I Kidnapped You Later

Li Yunshu looked down at Di Bing and said,

“Master’s Wife, even if you stop me today, I will still find a way to go to the Demon Realm.”

At worst, he would make another trip to the Sword Sect Holy Land.

Seeing how stubborn he was, Di Bing tried to discourage him.

“It’s not that Master’s Wife looks down on you, but with your current strength, even if you follow her to the Demon Realm, you’ll only be a burden.”

“…”

Hearing this, Li Yunshu fell silent.

As Master’s Wife said, with his strength, going to the Demon Realm would indeed not help the Empress at all.

Moreover, the Demon Realm was not like here.

In the Demon Realm, the Empress’s identity might be extraordinary, but her strength was definitely not top-tier.

So —

“Eh!”

In the instant he was silent, the Empress had already flashed to the side of the Devilish Qi vortex.

Pei Xuanji entered the vortex without any hesitation, not even looking back.

Seeing this, Di Bing’s face lit up with joy.

She didn’t give Li Yunshu a chance to move, unleashing a full-force palm strike on the Demon Summoning Array Disk.

Bang!

As the Formation Plate cracked, the Devilish Qi vortex in the sky also became extremely unstable.

“No!”

Just as Li Yunshu wanted to seize the last moment to enter, Di Bing unleashed another palm strike.

Bang!

This time, a corner of the Demon Summoning Array Disk completely shattered, and the Devilish Qi vortex in the air was on the verge of dissipating.

Looking at the dissipating Devilish Qi vortex, Li Yunshu stood dazed in mid-air, feeling as if his Soul had been lost.

He opened his mouth, wanting to question Di Bing, but the words caught in his throat.

This feeling of someone else’s will being imposed on him reminded him of a saying: I’m doing this for your own good.

It’s just that —

He looked towards where the Devilish Qi vortex had dissipated, feeling a touch of sadness in his heart.

The Empress could clearly have taken him, so why did she leave alone?

And she left so resolutely, not even looking back at him.

Could it be that Master’s Wife was right, and he would indeed be a burden to her in the Demon Realm?

Di Bing came to Li Yunshu’s side, lowering her head slightly, completely abandoning her elder’s demeanor.

“If you want to blame Master’s Wife, just curse me, you can’t beat me anyway.”

“…”

Li Yunshu looked down at the loli Master’s Wife in front of him, clenched his fist, and gently tapped Di Bing’s head.

“Master’s Wife loves Master so much, why has she never been to Jingming Temple?”

Di Bing never expected Li Yunshu to bring up Duan Ping.

Seemingly reminded of a painful memory, she pursed her lips, then sniffled.

“It’s all your Master’s fault!”

She puffed out her cheeks and put her hands on her hips.

“Just because my Master said he wasn’t worthy of me, that guy holed up in the Daoist temple and refused to see me again.”

“Just because of that?”

In Li Yunshu’s opinion, this Master’s Wife was not one to be so obedient.

Given her personality, she would probably have directly tied up Master and forced him into marriage.

Making a cow drink water by force.

Di Bing’s small face was stern, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

“What else could it be? I wanted to tie him up and take him away, but he said if I used force again, he would commit suicide on the spot.”

Alas… with a long sigh, Di Bing continued.

“If we’re not Dao Companions, then we’re not Dao Companions, but he wouldn’t even see me anymore, saying I disturbed his Dao Heart!”

Li Yunshu said,

“If Master were captured by people from the Demon Realm, what would Master’s Wife do?”

“Of course I would—”

Di Bing froze, looking up at Li Yunshu, and just as she was about to speak, the other party interrupted her.

“Me too.”

Li Yunshu looked towards where the Devilish Qi vortex had disappeared and slowly said,

“To do something knowing it’s impossible, isn’t loving someone like a moth flying into a flame?”

Di Bing’s mouth twitched, and only then did she realize she had fallen into this guy’s trap.

She also knew she couldn’t persuade him, so she stopped trying.

“Hmph, anyway, the Demon Summoning Array Disk has already been destroyed, so whatever you say is useless.”

“I—”

Just as Li Yunshu was about to speak, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The bracelet on his hand began to tremble on its own, a red thread on it rapidly spinning, and a stream of Devilish Qi emerged from the bracelet.

A past scene immediately appeared before his eyes; this thing was won by the Empress in a ring toss game in Western Zhou.

Then, she gave this thing to him.

He had thought at the time that something displayed on a street stall that could make the Empress stop must have something extraordinary about it.

Unfortunately, he wore it on his hand and studied it for a long time but found nothing special.

Activating Spiritual Qi, there was no reaction, indicating it was not a Spiritual Weapon Magic Treasure.

Investigating with Divine Sense, there was also no reaction, indicating it was not activated by Divine Sense.

He hadn’t done anything just now, so why was this bracelet reacting?

Di Bing also noticed the abnormality of the bracelet and asked with a frown,

“What is this?”

“This is a bracelet His Majesty gave me.”

No sooner had he spoken than the bracelet suddenly began to spin and detached from his wrist, hovering above his head and growing larger and larger.

Li Yunshu looked up at the bracelet, only to see a pitch-black hole in the center of the bracelet, with tiny specks inside like stars in the Universe.

Di Bing looked up at the bracelet, a bad premonition forming in her heart.

However, before she could react, a huge suction force directly pulled Li Yunshu into the black hole.

“Yunshu!”

Di Bing reached out to grab him but caught nothing.

Buzz.

The bracelet, in its spinning, had already returned to its original appearance and fell into Di Bing’s hand.

Looking at the bracelet in her hand, Di Bing clenched her small fist and squeezed out three words through gritted teeth.

“Pei Xuanji!”

She had heard it clearly just now; this thing was given to Yunshu by that woman, so Pei Xuanji had planned this all along.

There was no need to guess; Li Yunshu must have already been abducted to the Demon Realm.

The cunning Devil Head of a woman!

She looked up at the sky, murmuring with a hint of grievance,

“Duan Ping, I didn’t look after your disciple well…”

...Demon Realm.

When Li Yunshu opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by endless Devilish Qi.

The Devilish Qi here was not like the black Devilish Qi seen in Great Chu.

In this world, Devilish Qi did not manifest physically, but he could clearly feel that the Spiritual Qi here was extremely thin, almost non-existent.

Fortunately, he had already cultivated the "Eternal Night Calamity," so he would not be corrupted by the dense Devilish Qi here.

If a pure spiritual cultivator came here, setting aside whether Devilish Qi would invade their body and Divine Sense, the mere scarcity of Spiritual Qi alone would be enough to suppress a spiritual cultivator’s strength.

This place looked no different from the Human Realm, surrounded by green mountains and clear waters.

This was clearly a forest, and beside him was a huge lake.

On the surface of the water, a red dress was reflected.

Before him was that familiar face, with a hint of triumph in her eyebrows.

He hadn’t expected the Empress to have a trick up her sleeve, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

Pei Xuanji extended her index finger and lifted his chin.

“But you chose to follow me, so don’t you dare say I kidnapped you later.”

Li Yunshu grinned and nodded heavily.

“Mm!”

Pei Xuanji also revealed a dangerous smile.

“Then can you explain to me what you meant by that shouting in the capital?”
