Chapter 405: Longing for the Mortal World (Vote for Monthly Ticket)
"This actually makes sense!"
The Corpse Bride really wanted to say, 'You three, no, you two, have your brains watt out: 'Duke Yatun doesn't understand the rules here, so it was those two Female Emperors' decision.'
It's hateful, truly hateful.
In the eyes of the Corpse Bride, both Ying Muyao and Fengdu were from the Eastern Empire, so she was clearly on Fengdu's side.
And there was Mu Yunji, who appeared neutral, but it was clear that Yunxiao was her person.
"You say you won't lay a finger, then what's this woman's deal?"
Anyway, the Corpse Bride didn't believe Mu Yunji hadn't sent anyone, even if she really hadn't, who could guarantee that those Heavenly Maidens under Mu Yunji had nothing to do with Fengdu?
However, the Corpse Bride also knew the gap in strength between herself and the two Female Emperors.
Two Upper Tier Masters of Miracles, while she was only Lower Tier, if she faced them, she'd be finished, with no hope of Transcending in this lifetime.
In some ways, the Corpse Bride's desire to survive was indeed very strong; she was glad her earlier thoughts hadn't been heard by Mu Yunji, otherwise, with the temperament of the Female Sword Emperor, she would've likely gotten a beating.
Accusing her Heavenly Maidens of fooling around with others, the first person not to spare them would be Mu Yunji.
'There's hope!'
Yunxiao didn't understand what exactly had happened to the Heavenly Gang Zombie King, why a Sixth Realm powerhouse had such a level. She didn't know about the planar suppression and thought it was because the Heavenly Gang Zombie King had just broken through, his realm was unstable, and he had yet to master his own power.
But before Yunxiao could be pleased, waves of Earth Fiend's aura began surrounding them at an alarming speed.
"I'll hold him off, you guys run!"
Something was coming, though not as strong as the Heavenly Gang Zombie King, but still not far off.
The Earth Fiend Corpse was also of the Fifth Realm, much stronger than Li Zhen's power.
Not counting Yunxiao, it was very difficult for a group of people to fight off even one, let alone so many, they were afraid they'd be completely annihilated!
"Planning to run?"
"Roar!"
The Heavenly Gang Zombie King kept swinging his arms, blocking all attacks from the Divine Morning Sword, while he charged forward with heavy footsteps that sounded like hammers smashing into everyone's hearts.
"Run fast!"
Yunxiao shouted angrily, snapping everyone out of their stupor.
They no longer hesitated but headed towards the safe passage marked on the map, and under the guidance of the gu bugs from the two Miao Tribe witch doctors, they chose the path without the Earth Fiend's aura and quickly evacuated.
'Don't even think about escaping!'
The Heavenly Gang Zombie King was under a lot of pressure at the moment, ordered by the Corpse Bride; if he was blocked here by a bunch of lowlifes from the Underworld...
He couldn't imagine, he truly couldn't imagine what punishment he would face upon his return.
Although he looked fierce on the outside, in front of the Corpse Bride, he was even more well-behaved and docile than a kitten or puppy.
If one were to name the most fearsome monster born from the power of the Underground Palace, without a doubt, it would be his master, the Queen of the Eastern Sea.
"Hmph!"
They were now inches apart, and Yunxiao, unable to retreat, recalled the Divine Morning Sword to block the zombie king's ghostly claws.
With clangs and sparks flying, she took only half a step back and managed to withstand the immense pressure from the Heavenly Gang Zombie King.
"What?"
The Heavenly Gang Zombie King was taken aback; he never expected Yunxiao to withstand his attack: 'How is this possible?'
Both of them were only releasing power equivalent to the Fifth Realm, at most Fifth Realm peak.
But keep in mind, the bodily strength of the Heavenly Gang Zombie King was at the Heroic Level.
A Transcendent battling a Heroic in an arm wrestle, surely the latter would win. It's an absolute rule that cannot be circumvented by tricks.
"Hiss~~"
The next moment, the Heavenly Gang Zombie King felt a burning, stabbing pain in his arm and hurriedly looked, seeing it was the Divine Morning Sword in Yunxiao's hand, 'There's something wrong with this sword!'

The Corpse Bride completely lost her mind, "You still say it's not your people, if this is not your person, then in front of you all, I'll swallow an entire dimension!"
"Hmph!"
Mu Yunji snorted coldly, not at the Corpse Bride, but expressing dissatisfaction with her own subordinate Heavenly Maidens.
Yunxiao knowing her Daoist technique didn't mean anything.
It was only logical for this technique to exist in the multi-dimensional planes given the past appearance of 'Heavenly Evolution Forty-Nine,' and so many Miracle Citizens' corpses nurturing dimensions.
But this sword, there was something off about it!
'That sword carries my aura!'
Mu Yunji's Miracle World, known as the Heavenly Palace, comprised thirty-three heavens, and the Miracle Resources used in this Divine Morning Sword clearly originated from her world.
But the question was, who could utilize the power of Heavenly Evolution Forty-Nine without her command?
'Someone is scheming in the Underworld; there's something wrong with this girl.'
Mu Yunji could confidently tell the Corpse Bride that there was definitely no meddling from her in this matter.
However, the Corpse Bride wouldn't believe her because the Master of Miracles could allow their citizens to act on their own, keeping them in the dark, thus enabling lies undetectable during questioning.
Of course, one wouldn't detect it!
I truly didn't do it, the perpetrator is my vassal, unknown to me, how could that be called a lie?
At this moment, Mu Yunji was like someone who couldn't defend herself no matter what she said.
"That girl, and the sword in her hands..."
Ying Muyao looked towards Mu Yunji, who was staring daggers at Fengdu, her gaze threatening, with an attitude that said she expected an explanation or else she was ready to fight.
"That sword, it was made by my people."
Mu Yunji closely sensed the aura on the Divine Morning Sword; she hadn't paid attention before, and now that she sensed it, to her surprise, it was actually a Divine Artifact produced by the Doushuai Palace.
'This person can craft Divine Artifacts within the Doushuai Palace and has the authority to give it to someone in the Underworld without informing me.'
No, she could no longer be called a person of the Underworld, as Yunxiao had half of the Heavenly Maiden's bloodline in her; she was a bastard child born of a Heavenly Maiden of the Heavenly Palace!
'What audacity!'
'Truly, such gall!'
Mu Yunji felt as if this shameless woman had made her lose all face, as she had previously confidently claimed that her subordinates were all pure virgins.
But now, turning her head, she saw not only descending to the Underworld but also that they had mated with mortals, even bearing children.
"Fengdu!"
Mu Yunji was nearly furious; if previously she didn't care that Fengdu calculated against the Corpse Bride, now the guy had even plotted against her.
If she didn't give him a beating now, where would the justice be!
"Calm down, Sword Empress, please calm down a bit."
Fengdu hid behind the desk, continuously giving signals to Ying Muyao, the Empress of the East, who was unsure whether to intervene or not, and was thus in a dilemma.
"Yun Ji, cool down first, let's give Young Master Fengdu a chance to explain," Ying Muyao said.
Watching this scene, Bailuo felt like he was watching another family drama unfolding, and as Fengdu started to pull people into Consciousness Space, Bailuo and the Corpse Bride were also brought in.
At that moment, time outside nearly came to a standstill, and they would only continue after reaching a conclusion in their discussion.
