The Demon King’s face turned green. “You traitor!”

  Gu Bailu shrugged. “Like father, like daughter.”

  The Demon King roared, “What did I do to you? I trusted you wholeheartedly, and this is how you treat me?!”

  Gu Bailu was about to say something, when Feng Qingtian grabbed her hand and looked at the Demon King coldly. “Are you going to give way or not? You only have one chance to choose. I’ve let you live for 150 years, and you’re still not satisfied?”

  The Demon King smiled mockingly. “Really? You think you’re the former Heavenly Emperor? Do I need to be scared of you?”

  Without a word, Feng Qingtian summoned the Soul Separation Sword and flashed in front of him. The Demon King didn’t fall behind either, and flashed to the edge of the barrier.

  Feng Qingtian narrowed his eyes. He was wondering if he should break the barrier, when Gu Bailu walked over and cast a Life and Death Talisman as she chanted a spell. “Break!”

  The rune was like a sharp arrow piercing a frozen lake. The barrier cracked and the entire thing exploded in front of the Demon King.

  The Demon King’s face darkened. He knew that Gu Bailu was strong, but he didn’t expect her to break the barrier so easily.

  Not just anyone could break a barrier of the Demon Realm.

  Feng Qingtian raised his sword and charged at the Demon King, who jumped into the air and collided with him. The entire courtyard shook and colorful lights surrounded them.

  Some of the weaker demons were already dizzy from the power.

  The Dark Army which Feng Qingtian had brought with him was slightly better than the demons of the Demon Realm, but the troops couldn’t hold on for much longer.

  Gu Bailu summoned a row of enhancement runes and cast them on the Dark Army.

  The Dark Army, which had been on the verge of collapse, regained their strength in an instant. They were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood as they charged forward and wounded the demon horde.

  Gu Bailu smiled in satisfaction. Her enhancement rune was quite impressive.

  It was absolutely a powerful weapon in a group battle.

  What dog Heavenly Palace Cliff – who was scared of whom?

  Feng Qingtian and the Demon King fought in the air for a long time. Gu Bailu felt that they were evenly matched.

  Feng Qingtian was only a human being now. Even though he was stronger than a human being, he was still at a disadvantage compared with a Demon King who had cultivated for thousands of years.

  Gu Bailu calmly took out an enhancement rune from her sleeve, chanted a spell, then tossed it out.

  The enhancement rune flew toward Feng Qingtian’s back and disappeared.

  Feng Qingtian felt a surge of power enter his body, and the pressure he had been feeling immediately disappeared. Instead, he relaxed and slashed the Soul Separation Sword at the Demon King. The sword aura tore through the entire Demon Realm and sent the Demon King flying.

  Before he flew off, the Demon King’s eyes bulged in disbelief. He was defeated so easily?

  He was no longer the Heavenly Emperor Feng Qingtian. How could he still be so strong? That was impossible!

  Feng Qingtian landed and hugged Gu Bailu. “Retreat.”

  When he first arrived, he had already broken through the Demon Realm, plus the Demon King had deliberately let him in, so he had entered very smoothly.

  Chapter 823: I Haven’t Used My Previous Strength in a Long Time

  The Demon King landed on the ground with an awful face. “Close the gate of the Demon Realm. We can’t let them out.”


  Feng Qingtian flew swiftly with Gu Bailu, trying to escape before the gate closed.

  However, he was too late. The gate of the Demon Realm was firmly shut.

  The gate of the demon world was a hundred meters tall and made of cold stone. No amount of force could break it.

  “I’ll find another way.” Feng Qingtian led Gu Bailu to the other side. The gate was shut, but there were other barriers in the Demon Realm that could be broken.

  Gu Bailu stopped him. “There’s no hurry. Follow me.”


  She knew exactly where the holes in the barrier were.

  In her previous life, she had basically familiarized herself with the entire Demon Realm.

  Also, because of her unique family arts, she paid special attention to such barriers. Thus, when she came to destroy the Demon Realm in a fury in her previous life, she could do whatever she wanted.

  She had almost destroyed half of the Demon Realm back then.

  The current Demon Realm was no longer as strong as before. A hundred years wasn’t enough for them to recover their former strength.

  At the very least, many of the demons hadn’t started cultivating yet.

  Even those wolf guards still had their werewolf forms and had yet to completely evolve.

  That was why Gu Bailu dared to be so unbridled in front of the Demon King.

  Gu Bailu led Feng Qingtian to a waterfall that was three thousand feet tall; the spray from the waterfall could wet their clothes from ten meters away.

  “The area behind the waterfall is empty. You can pass through the Demon Realm and enter the empty space.” Gu Bailu pointed behind the waterfall.

  Feng Qingtian nodded. “I’ll open the barrier.”


  Gu Bailu shook her head. “No need here. Instead, we need to open the barrier in the empty space. Let’s go in first.”


  “Alright.” Feng Qingtian picked her up and flew toward the waterfall.

  Ye Huai waved at the Dark Army. “Follow.”


  The group of people flew toward the waterfall, and were submerged.

  It was completely empty behind the waterfall. The entire space glowed with a dazzling white light. It was the same no matter where they went.

  No matter how long they walked, it felt like they were still in the same place, as if they hadn’t moved at all.

  “There’s a barrier here. I’ll open it.” Gu Bailu took off her golden hairpin and earrings and threw them into the empty space.

  She drew a few runes and connected the gold hairpin and the earrings together, before she roared, “Break!”


  The golden hairpin and the earrings dashed into the white space like a hot knife through butter, and the entire space turned dark.

  “Lulu!” Feng Qingtian hurriedly hugged Gu Bailu. “What happened?”


  “It’s fine. The space is moving. It shouldn’t be a problem.” Gu Bailu lay in his arms, unable to breathe.

  Feng Qingtian grabbed her wrist. “Why are you so cold?”


  “I haven’t used the power from my previous life in a very long time, so it’s a little hard to bear. It’s fine. Don’t worry.” Gu Bailu lay in his arms and wrapped her arms around his waist as she breathed unhurriedly.

  “Thank you.” Feng Qingtian kissed her.

  Not long after the space changed, there was a beam of light. In an instant, everybody appeared in the air above a forest covered in a dense fog.

  “Everyone, be careful not to fall to your deaths,” Ye Huai warned the Dark Army.

  They were all people with outstanding spiritual power, and weren’t scared of falling.
