This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Chapter 304: The Severely Injured Eldest Prince


When Liang Yi and Su Youyi followed Ying Xi and saw Zhou Wudao lying on the jade bed, their faces showed some surprise.

The Crown Prince on the jade bed had a pale face, his body covered in frost, and there was a bowl-sized hole in his chest. However, the injury that should have been heavily bleeding was now frozen, as was the last trace of vitality within him.

"Senior Ying, what has happened to the Crown Prince..." Liang Yi couldn't help but ask Ying Xi as he stared at the shocking state of Zhou Wudao.

"The Crown Prince was already in this condition when he was transported back with a life-saving item. It was only because His Majesty used the Heavenly Avoidance Coffin to seal him the moment he appeared, preventing that last bit of vitality from slipping away," Ying Xi replied, anger burning in his heart as he saw the former Crown Prince's tragic state.

"This coffin has something about it, meow." Mr. Orange gave Zhou Wudao a light sniff, astonished to find that he could no longer sense the man's presence.

"Little Youyi, can you sense anything?"

"No, in my perception, all I see before me is a void, as if nothing exists." Su Youyi had already tried to scrutinize Zhou Wudao upon entering but came up with nothing.

"Impressive, meow!" Mr. Orange looked somewhat admiringly, noting that it was not unusual to evade their sense, but to even evade the Heavenly Dao's perception was quite frightening. If Heavenly Dao does not recognize you as dead, then you are essentially living forever.

"Is there a difficulty in healing the Crown Prince? I refuse to believe the mighty Immortal Dynasty of Xuanzhou doesn't have stores of Immortal Pills," Liang Yi asked Ying Xi, side-glancing at him. Given that the Crown Prince had been like this for so long, there clearly must be something preventing his recovery.

Hearing this question, Mr. Orange and Su Youyi also looked curiously at Ying Xi, wanting to know the reason, which could possibly be the doings of someone from the Devouring Spirit Sect.

"Ah... There is a mysterious force within the Crown Prince, no matter whether it is a Spirit Pill or Spiritual Medicine, the moment they enter, they vanish as if they never existed," Ying Xi hesitated for a moment but decided to reveal the truth.

"We have sought the insights of Gu Qingniu from Medicine Valley and the enigmatic Valley Master, but they could only determine that it wasn't the injury that caused this but a mysterious Law, which is why we dare not let the Crown Prince take any Immortal Pills."

"The power of Laws?" Liang Yi and Mr. Orange exchanged glances, both recognizing the difficulty involved. Once it comes to the power of Laws, things can be quite unreasonable.

"And this power has also appeared near Abyss recently," Ying Xi continued, making Liang Yi and Su Youyi even more surprised.

"After our research, we suspect that the envoy from Abyss had experimented with this power on the Crown Prince before using this Law to bypass the Banished Immortal and sneak near the Abyss Seal."

"So, the Immortal Dynasty of Xuanzhou knows about this then?" Liang Yi looked at Ying Xi, surprised that the Immortal Dynasty knew so clearly.

"Don't underestimate the intelligence power of the Mystic Bureau, especially now that the Undying Abnormal People are involved," Ying Xi replied with a smile.

"May I see the Crown Prince's wounds?" Liang Yi suddenly wondered if this Law could also belong to a kind of Abyss Power; if so, then the Cliff Sword Intent might be useful against it.

"This..." Ying Xi hesitated, as previously the Emperor had strictly forbidden anyone from approaching his most beloved Prince. Now that Liang Yi had made this request, it truly put him in a difficult position.

"Let him try!" A majestic voice echoed out of the void, and upon hearing it, Ying Xi immediately kneeled on one knee to welcome this highest-ranking person of the Immortal Dynasty of Xuanzhou.

"Thank you, Emperor Zhou!" Liang Yi was not surprised, but he still respectfully performed a salute.

In the study, Zhou Zhukong was gathering a large army to support the Zen sect, attaching a strand of his Divine Sense to a distant hall, while correcting official documents and paying attention to see if Chen Hua's disciple had any solutions.

With his strength, expelling this bit of Law was really simple, but to expel the Law while also preserving that trace of vitality in Zhou Wudao was somewhat difficult.

Now, the arrival of Liang Yi stirred his emotions; his cultivator's intuition was telling him that there might be a turning point in the situation.

Liang Yi cautiously approached Zhou Wudao, whose surrounding coldness was truly severe. Even with his body, tempered by the Qinglian Creation, standing nearby felt somewhat stiff; this was because the main chill of the Heavenly Avoidance Coffin was concentrated on Zhou Wudao's body.

"Be careful, this coldness targets not just space, but can also seal time, meow!" Old Master Orange shouted to Liang Yi, as he didn't want to watch Liang Yi turn into an ice sculpture alive.

Hearing Old Master Orange's words, Su Youyi's heart skipped a beat, instinctively wanting to pull her senior brother out. But seeing the determination in Liang Yi's eyes, she couldn't bring herself to ask her senior brother to give up.

The closer to Zhou Wudao, the denser the chilling air in the surrounding void became, even causing a glittering blue color to seep out from Liang Yi's hands.

The Qinglian, sensing that trace of icy conception, began to spin on its own, combating that Law with its own power.

The Creation Green Lotus, born from the void, occupies a high and mighty position, even possibly above the Law itself.

Even though it was only a small seed born along with Liang Yi, it was not facing a complete Law now, so, at this moment, the two seemed evenly matched.

Thanks to the help of the Creation Green Lotus, Liang Yi finally managed to place a hand on Zhou Wudao, not far from the large hole in his chest.

As Liang Yi had anticipated, the Cliff Sword Intent within him already began stirring.

At this moment, Zhou Wudao's wholly penetrated chest unexpectedly gleamed with a point of bright light, a strange fluctuation began to spread out.

Whether it was Su Youyi, Old Master Orange, or Ying Xi, their vision blurred, as if some memory was about to be taken away, and they gradually started feeling unfamiliar with the young man standing by the jade bed.

"Don't even think about stealing my memories of my senior brother!" Su Youyi's eyes turned cold, a raging killing intent emerged, and exquisite and mysterious Sword Intent flowed out of her to staunchly resist that invisible fluctuation.

Old Master Orange also emitted a bright luminescence; that was the Cultivation Technique he created during his time as Heavenly Dao, naturally filled with boundless mysteries.

Only Ying Xi, who appeared to be of the highest realm, was affected, but with Zhou Zhukong's assistance, this strange fluctuation didn't disperse very far, it didn't even leave the room.

At this moment, Liang Yi was still close to this power, his Cliff Sword Intent indeed counteracted Abyss Power, but this ability to make one forget everything wasn't entirely Abyss Power, more like a mixed power.

Therefore, Liang Yi still found it strenuous to combat this kind of power.
