The night was deep.

Lin Huashan had already left the Zhao Residence.

After careful consideration, Zhao Chong hurried to the east courtyard to see Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body.

Upon seeing Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body, Zhao Chong conveyed to her the words Lin Huashan had told her.

After hearing what Zhao Chong said, Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body furrowed her brows in doubt and questioned, "Zhao Chong, don't you find this matter suspicious? With Qian Feng's alert character, would he not know Lin Huashan was eavesdropping nearby?"

"No! That's why I find this matter suspicious." Zhao Chong shook his head expressionlessly. "It must be Qian Feng's intention for Lin Huashan to inform Your Majesty and the Yang King. However, I'm more curious to know if what Lin Huashan said was true. Do you really plan to go save your Yang Soul with Chen Hao?"

"Since you have heard about it, I do not intend to hide it from you anymore," Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body spoke coldly as she walked towards Zhao Chong.

After approaching Zhao Chong, she leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Chen Hao and I plan to re-fuse my three souls."

Zhao Chong's eyes immediately sparkled, surprised by what Ye Yuqiao said.

"Your Majesty," Zhao Chong shook his head in disbelief, "hasn't your Yang Soul already fused with the Nether King's Heart? How are you going to release it? And if you release your Yin Soul, won't the three Primordial Demons of the Underworld on the Gate of the Nether King escape? What will you do then?"

Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body smiled and then told Zhao Chong about her plan with Chen Hao.

After listening, Zhao Chong's expression became solemn.

"Your Majesty, why do you want to do this?"

Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body's expression darkened as she explained, "Once the three souls are fused as one, Chen Hao will be able to accept the part that is me."

"Chen Hao again!"

"It's not just because of him, but also for myself," Ye Yuqiao spoke glumly. "Actually, there is something I have always meant to tell you. I have an oath with the Netherworld Azure Bird. It used its blood to grant rebirth to my soul on the condition that I destroy the Netherworld continent within three months. This is my only way to save myself."

After Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body finished speaking, Zhao Chong's face turned even paler.

He had always thought that Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body was in a rush to battle the Ghost King Battalion to force her Yang Soul to sacrifice itself and activate Chen Hao's Nether King's Power. However, the truth was that her time was running out, and she had to pave the way for Chen Hao to become the Nether King before the deadline.

"Zhao Chong, I initially planned to tell you about this in a few days, but since you know now, let me ask you, are you willing to lend me your strength?"

"Of course!" Zhao Chong replied decisively. "I, Zhao Chong, am at your disposal."

"Excellent!" Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body smiled. "With your assistance, our chances of success will increase."

"When do you and Chen Hao plan to take action?" Zhao Chong asked.

Ye Yuqiao's Nether Soul Body sighed sorrowfully, "Chen Hao has been in closed-door cultivation these past few days. It's the most dangerous period of his cultivation, and I don't know his current situation. As soon as he emerges, we will start."

"What do you think about Qian Feng sending Lin Huashan to relay the message?" Zhao Chong asked once more, frowning.

"Qian Feng, that old fox, I don't know what he's plotting. However, the Second Generation Nether King will surely send people to stop us. You will be in charge of the defenses within the Netherworld City during this period. You must manage a careful deployment of troops, calling back an army of sixty thousand to garrison the city. We absolutely cannot let anyone ruin our plan!"

..

Two days later.

Chen Hao's Yin Soul had been away from his body for a full two days and a night, and still had not returned to it, completing the forty-ninth chapter of his "Return to Yang Spell".

Gazing at the drifting Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul particles in the Nether Acupoint, the shadowy figure's face was filled with anxiety.

At the same time, he was also quite tired. To help Chen Hao with his cultivation, he had not rested for seven consecutive days and nights. Had he not been absorbing the Yang Energy from Chen Hao's body for sustenance, he might have already dissipated into nothingness.

Chen Hao was unaware that this shadowy figure was actually an incomplete soul. Fortunately, they were in the Nether Acupoint, a virtual realm; had this been the real world, the shadowy figure's soul might have dissipated due to being separated from Chen Hao's body for too long.

Not long after, suddenly, the luminosity of Chen Hao's Yin Soul's Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul particles dimmed. The shadowy figure was startled and immediately sat cross-legged behind Chen Hao.

Usually, if the scattered Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul particles are not reclaimed within a day, they would vanish, and the soul would be unable to recover. But because they were inside the virtual realm of the Nether Acupoint, this process was slowed down. However, even so, it would not last more than three days.

From the current situation, the shadowy figure judged that Chen Hao's Yin Soul's Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul might be on the verge of disappearing.

Therefore, he planned to use that method to save Chen Hao ahead of time.

It was to give Chen Hao a new birth, to have him reborn as a normal person.

Though not entirely certain of success, the shadowy figure could no longer afford to worry about that.

Just as the shadowy figure used Yang Energy to draw countless seals on Chen Hao's back, employing that spell,

All of a sudden, a blue-black ray of light shot out from Chen Hao's left eye.

The shadowy figure was taken aback, then showed delight. He hadn't expected the Nether King's Heart to awaken on its own!

This was an unexpectedly pleasant surprise!

"What's going on?" the shadowy figure muttered incomprehensibly, a smile of providence on his face.

Afterward, he saw Chen Hao's floating Yin Soul's Primordial Spirit and Primordial Soul particles being absorbed into Chen Hao's body, his Yin Soul about to be resurrected by the Nether King's Heart!

At that moment, suddenly, a huge tear appeared in the barrier wall of the Nether Acupoint, and then the bleak snowy night sky emerged.

Then, a face appeared through it.

This face, Chen Hao had seen half a month earlier through sensing another Nether King's Heart. The person was none other than the Second Generation Nether King—Feng Yie.

"So you've been hiding here all along!" the Second Generation Nether King said, his frosty tone filled with a chilling menace. At that moment, he was sensing the Nether King's Heart inside Chen Hao from the distant ancient city.

During this past half a month, since Chen Hao had suddenly vanished from the human realm and the Nether King's Heart within him could not be sensed, the Second Generation Nether King suspected that Chen Hao might have begun some secret action,

Thus, he released all the power from the other half of the Nether King's Heart, forcibly sensing the Nether King's Heart within Chen Hao, and awakening it.

In this accidental manner, he had inadvertently assisted Chen Hao and revived his Yin Soul.

"You must be the Second Generation Nether King."

"Who is this!" the Second Generation Nether King exclaimed in surprise, only now realizing that there was someone else sitting behind Chen Hao.

The shadowy figure smiled, then slowly stood up from the ground, while at the same time pulling down the cloth that covered his face.

Upon seeing the shadowy figure, the Second Generation Nether King's eyes shone with sharpness.
