Chapter 1032 Zhou Yu's Revelation
Chapter 1032 Zhou Yu's Revelation
After Ling Yun used the five-beast king fist, five figures of mythical beasts suddenly materialized in one of the 24th floor's areas. They immediately let out loud roars that reverberated throughout the area before spreading out in various directions.
*Roar*
*Screee*
*Rawr* n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
*Hiss*
*Neigh*
The vermilion bird flew around the beasts below, shooting dozens of fireballs from its beak. Waves of water accompanied the Azure Dragon's every movement as it twisted its body above the beasts. The white tiger let out a loud roar before several wind storms descended from the sky, sweeping away the beasts.
The purple qilin also let out a loud roar, causing hundreds of purple lightning bolts to rain down on the beasts below.
Unlike them, the black tortoise burrowed into the ground before moving quickly, and its action caused huge earthquakes in every area it passed; even the ground split open before swallowing all the beasts in its area.
Unsatisfied, Ling Yun immediately summoned his ice and dark familiars, directing them to attack the beasts in a specific direction. In addition, he used the nine underworld dates technique and summoned nine dark creatures, which caused the temperature in the area to drop drastically.
Spreading his hands to the side, Ling Yun used his fire qi to create two dark flames on both palms, which he immediately flung towards a distant area. Instantly, those dark flames scorched several beasts in the area where they fell, prompting them to flee, causing his dark flames to spread quickly and burn more beasts.
Xiao Xiao and the others noticed that Ling Yun was acting like a madman, and they wanted to go find him to ask him about what really happened. However, Zhou Yu stopped them by creating void walls in front of them, especially since one of the nine dark creatures would attack them if they approached him now.
Unlike them, demihumans like Song Su and the others were horrified by Ling Yun's actions, especially since he also released his primordial chaos dragon aura.
"What really happened to him, Sister Yu? Why is our husband acting like that?" Feng Ruxue asked as she observed Ling Yun's area using her senses, as did Xiao Xiao and the others.
Zhou Yu let out a heavy sigh before telling them about Ling Yun's conjecture regarding Huang Lingzhu's actions, Ling Xi's past and sorrow, and so on.
After that, their expressions all turned ugly, and they were no longer surprised that their husband was acting like a madman, especially since they were fully aware that Ling Xi meant the world to him, and only Yi Mingxia could rival her position in his heart.
"Do you think Huang Lingzhu really manipulated Sister Xi into doing all that?" Feng Ling'er questioned Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu shook her head in response. "For now, this matter is still just Ling Yun's conjecture, so we still need to prove the truth, but most likely it is true. Anyway, one thing is certain: all the items he shared with all of you so far came from Huang Lingzhu and Tang Xiao, especially since they were the ones who created them, including this tower."
Zhou Yu's words shocked them once more, particularly considering the extraordinary benefits of the techniques, equipment, pills, and other items Ling Yun had given them. However, he was never willing to tell them where he got all the items, and Ling Xi also diverted their conversation whenever they asked her.
Xiao Xiao then spoke to Zhou Yu. "Sister Yu, how did Huang Lingzhu and Tang Xiao give all those items to our husband? I'm sure that you know everything, especially since you can read his mind. Since you've told us about this matter, I thought you could tell us the truth."
"Xiao'er, I want to tell you guys the truth, but Big Sis and I hid this matter for the sake of Ling Yun and all of you." Xiao Xiao and the others frowned because Zhou Yu was still unwilling to tell them the truth. "Actually, the ability to read other people's minds is not limited to my spirit race; there are so many cultivators in the supreme realm who can also do that. Furthermore, these individuals possess a level of strength that surpasses all of us, and if they discover this, you will all be in grave danger. However, those two gave everything to him for a serious reason, which was related to Xiao Yulan's phropecy that he told you about."
"My great-grandmother's phropecy?" Zhou Yu nodded to Xiao Xiao, who instantly recalled the prophecy. This was particularly significant because Xiao Yulan had only shared two prophecies with her, one of which had already come true when she became Ling Yun's wife, leaving only one prophecy to fulfill. "Are you serious about that?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Zhou Yu returned the question with a shake of her head. "Huang Lingzhu knew about it already, and Tang Xiao also came to see her when he came to our universe in the past. That's why she decided to use my big sister as her pawn, and she managed everything from behind the scenes."
Feng Ruxue and the others immediately turned to Xiao Xiao, which included Dongfang Jingjing, Tian Yueling, and several women who had not yet become Ling Yun's wives.
Xiao Xiao, with a heavy sigh, touched each of their foreheads before sharing a picture of their universe's destruction, which she got from Xiao Yulan. After all, they were a big family, except for the demihumans and the other female disciples of the Eternal Spring Sect, so she didn't want to hide it from them.
Immediately, their expressions became gloomy, prompting Dongfang Jingjing to question Zhou Yu. "Does that mean Huang Lingzhu and Tang Xiao are relying on Ling Yun to stop the disaster?"
"Yes." Zhou Yu answered her with a nod. "Huang Lingzhu killed Long Hun in order to save this universe, especially since only the primordial chaos dragon could stop it. She arranged for my big sister to find his bloodline, which was found by her last partner. Since he was incompatible with the bloodline, he gave it to her. She was also the one who arranged for my big sister to meet Ling Yun to give him the bloodline, especially since she already knew that he was a possessor of the nine elements. I'm sure that she has already arranged many other things without our knowledge, but we can only wait for everything to come to us."
"If Huang Lingzhu did all of that, doesn't that mean that she has been manipulating Ling Yun's and our lives for a long time?" Mu Shu inquired, glancing at Zhou Yu and her other sisters, who all nodded in agreement. "Isn't she going too far? I know that she wants to save this universe from the disaster, but she shouldn't do all that, especially everything she did to Sister Xi."
Mu Yan repeatedly nodded in agreement with her sister, particularly because she was well-acquainted with Ling Xi and was aware of her past suffering. However, she never expected that all of that would happen because Huang Lingzhu deliberately used her as a pawn, and she felt deeply sorry for her. "Are you going to tell Luxuria all these things?"
"No." Zhou Yu shook her head at Mu Yan. "Even though my big sister's nature is too playful and rarely serious, she will be furious if she knows about it. That's why I think it would be better if I didn't tell her about all this, but I will still tell her one day, especially after Ling Yun manages to get all the parts of Long Hun's body."
"You're right about that." Mu Yan immediately agreed with Zhou Yu. "Moreover, all of these matters are still speculation, and we don't have concrete evidence that Huang Lingzhu did all of that, so I also think it would be better if Luxuria didn't know about this matter, at least for now. Otherwise, she would take extreme measures, which would only be detrimental to her and Ling Yun. Anyway, since he is fighting with the beasts in that area, let him vent his anger first. It would be better if we started clearing the beasts in this area."
The other women agreed, so they immediately invited the demihumans and other female disciples of the Eternal Spring Sect to clean up those beasts, especially since they had all rested for a long time.
Zhou Yu did not join them, so she entered the void to check the movements of the newly arrived cultivators, including Zhu Ling and Jing Shen. Unlike the two people from her race, she could see that the cultivators from the Sky and Star Cloud Realms had no difficulty fighting the beasts on the lower 20th floor, especially since there were still countless cultivators who came from other realms with them.
When she saw the people from the Earth Cloud Realm, especially those from the Huang and Fu Clans, Zhou Yu frowned, and she thought about making a move to clean them up.
However, Zhou Yu immediately gave up on her idea since the young cultivators should be able to clean them up by themselves, and she then observed Long Feng's group, who had started cleaning up the beasts on the 21st floor. "They will reach the 24th floor by tomorrow, and we can move faster with their help."
