沈翔 and Nine Contains Ruo entered the large cemetery of the Dwarf Mountain Cluster. As they passed through one mountain after another, they could see some stone monuments erected in front of each mountain. These were inscribed with the names of their respective graveshores.

“Why is this place always shrouded in darkness Was it like that before” Sheng Xiang looked at the thick cloud above, which should have been a time of abundant sunlight. However, due to the covering of this cloud, sunlight couldn’t reach down, and it was accompanied by gusts of chilling wind that added to the eerie atmosphere.

“Yes, it was like this before. I’ve heard one of the Divine Kings mention that even though they were executed and buried here, they could still be resurrected. However, after resurrection, they would exist in a different form, unlike ordinary humans!” Nine Contains Ruo nodded.

“In order for them to have the chance of resurrection, this place must be built with heavy dark energy. Although it’s like that, the number of those who can actually resurrect is very few. When I was in the temple for many years, I didn’t hear of anyone who could be resurrected,” Sheng Xiang asked softly.

“Could there be a mass resurrection now If these guys were resurrected, could you handle it” Sheng Xiang asked. Nine Contains Ruo stopped at a stone monument and said, “Look at this. This is the tomb of Great Sage. When they were executed back then, each had twelve divine cores. Do you think I could handle it”

Twelve divine cores meant Great Sage, and anyone with twelve divine cores was more powerful than that. Sheng Xiang was surprised by this fact, as he had seen many tombstones before, but most of them featured only a few divine cores. Seeing twelve divine cores on one monument was quite surprising!

“Those buried here are not only the subordinates who made mistakes under Nine Divine Kings, but also the subordinates of the Heaven Emperor from nine thousand years ago. Therefore, these tombs are not simple; their names were well-known in their era!” Nine Contains Ruo sighed softly, “Unfortunately, the Heavenly Empire was destroyed and can never be restored. Even if Nine Divine Kings are so powerful, they still face such significant obstacles in trying to restore it.”

That sigh echoed through the silent cemetery, and Sheng Xiang had learned that the empire destroyed by nine countries working together was named Heavenly Empire. Nine Divine Kings were the ninth son of the Heaven Emperor from nine thousand years ago!

“Traitor, you still have the nerve to say that! You actually dare enter here when you don’t know your fate, do you wish to steal treasures from the temple” A furious voice echoed. Sheng Xiang was startled, and it would be frightening for anyone to suddenly hear someone’s voice in such an eerie place.

However, Nine Contains Ruo was quite calm. She whispered to Sheng Xiang, “Don’t worry, she’s the one in charge of watching over the graves. She didn’t pop out from the grave.”

Seeing Nine Contains Ruo’s calmness, Sheng Xiang was reassured. Then he saw a red shadow approaching him — the gravekeeper was actually a very beautiful woman.

“Chu Yunhui, I want to hear your explanation!” Just when Nine Contains Ruo shouted that, Chu Yunhui stabbed at her with a sword. Nine Contains Ruo didn’t have time to explain much and quickly summoned two swords for counterattack.

“I don’t want to hear your explanation, I won’t believe your words!” Chu Yunhui spoke coldly. She appeared soft on the outside, but she was enraged at this moment, her voice carrying a hint of murderous intent.

Nine Contains Ruo furrowed her eyebrows and swung the double swords continuously to defend herself. She didn’t attack, clearly showing that she was cautious due to misunderstandings with Chu Yunhui. If they could clear these misunderstandings, they would still be good friends, but if she injured Chu Yunhui now, their misunderstanding would grow significantly.

Sheng Xiang watched this scene from the side, feeling anxious in his heart. Nine Contains Ruo’s strength wasn’t weak, but since she was trying to avoid injuring Chu Yunhui and suppressing her own strength, she merely defended herself without retaliating. If this continued, it was Nine Contains Ruo who would be injured eventually.

Chu Yunhui was angry, but she didn’t use her full strength because it was a cemetery. As the gravekeeper, she couldn’t cause too much commotion here, even though the graves were sturdy and hard to break. However, she was very dedicated in her duties.

“What should I do This Little Nine will get injured if this goes on!” Sheng Xiang wanted to intervene, but his strength was limited. He was merely a lower divine god, while Nine Contains Ruo and Chu Yunhui were upper divine gods with multiple divine cores.

Long Xueyi said, “You have the Azure Tortoise robe on you, right Help Little Nine lessen some pressure so that she has a chance to explain herself!”

Sheng Xiang immediately rushed over, and Chu Yunhui increased her strength. The sharp red light from her sword condensed into intense divine power, and she fiercely attacked Nine Contains Ruo. Nine Contains Ruo could only grit her teeth as she dodged, daring not to resist since Chu Yunhui’s strength was increasing rapidly.

“Yunhui, listen to me. I have hope now of finding Nine Divine Kings. If that happens, everything can be explained. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have risked entering this sealed temple!” Nine Contains Ruo gritted her teeth as she said, “Please calm down and listen to my explanation. If I were truly a traitor, I wouldn’t hold back as much now!”

Chu Yunhui shouted, “I won’t listen. You were the one who chose to ally with outsiders and destroy the temple yourself, I saw it happen. There’s no need for your explanation!”

Angry Chu Yunhui seemed extremely enraged, using all her strength to strike out the strongest sword. The red light from her sword enveloped the entire cemetery. In that instant, Nine Contains Ruo didn’t dodge anymore but closed her eyes instead. She was willing to bear this blow because she truly did wrong back then!

Chu Yunhui saw Nine Contains Ruo giving up resistance and not dodging, her heart softened. The eyes filled with hate were now beautiful and gentle, but also full of regret because she couldn’t control her strength anymore. Back then, she didn’t believe that Nine Contains Ruo would betray Nine Divine Kings! Now that Nine Contains Ruo is back...

Just as the critical moment approached, Sheng Xiang suddenly rushed out and hugged Nine Contains Ruo to take that blow on his back!

“Ouch!” Sheng Xiang cried out in pain, feeling his spine being pierced. Holding Nine Contains Ruo, he was pushed away by the force and crashed into a small mountain.

“Azure Tortoise robe!” Chu Yunhui exclaimed in surprise, secretly sighing with relief. She was originally a very gentle and kind woman, but because of the accumulated resentment over years, she had become extremely angry earlier. After all, Nine Contains Ruo betrayed Nine Divine Kings suddenly back then, and she suffered a significant impact.

However, because she trusted Nine Contains Ruo deeply and had a deep relationship with her, it was hard to accept the betrayal at first. Later, after she accepted it, she hated Nine Contains Ruo very much but still hoped in her heart that Nine Contains Ruo wouldn’t betray Nine Divine Kings. She was waiting for Nine Contains Ruo’s explanation!

“Little Nine Sister!” Chu Yunhui hurriedly flew over, seeing Sheng Xiang pressing Nine Contains Ruo down. Angry, she wanted to kick Sheng Xiang away with her feet.

Though he suffered this blow, Sheng Xiang didn’t take it for nothing. He got a taste of the soft parts that would have been enjoyed if they were on one of the graves. Touching Nine Contains Ruo’s gaze, he quickly turned around and helped her stand up.cause Sacred Pill Realm joined Heaven Sovereign Realm recently, and there are a lot of herbs in Sacred Pill Realm.
