It wasn't until Ji Chongming was made into a Soul-Locking Banner and pulled into the dream realm that he finally realized he could no longer return to his own body.
Just then, Lin Yibai woke up. When she saw Ji Chongming, she was like a drowning person seeing a lifesaver and lunged at him.
"Ji Chongming! They've all gone crazy! Quickly create other dream scenarios. I want to torture them all to death! Not just Shen Qing, but also Pei Xuanjing, He Yu, Shen Qiuyun, and that Li Xian. I want them to suffer worse than death!!"
When Ji Chongming saw Lin Yibai's twisted face as she shouted for Shen Qing to pay the price, a rare sense of impatience welled up in his heart.
"Stop making noise! I can't even get out now. Can you just let me be quiet for a while?"
Lin Yibai had just endured one round of torture. Then, seeing the impatience on the face of her most devoted admirer, she felt angry too.
"What's your attitude? Didn't you say you love me? Can't you even handle such a small thing? What good are you to me? I don't want to be the Demon Lord's wife anymore!!"
"I don't care if you don't want to be it. Do you think I want to pander to you for the rest of my life?!"
Ji Chongming roared, which startled Lin Yibai. She stared at him with wide eyes, seemingly unable to understand why Ji Chongming would react like this.
Panic welled up in her heart. Ji Chongming was the last of her devoted admirers. If she lost him, there would be no one left behind her.
So, for a rare moment, Lin Yibai softened her voice and said aggrievedly, "I was just too scared. Don't be angry. If you help me take revenge, I'll agree to anything."
But at this moment, seeing Lin Yibai only filled Ji Chongming with annoyance. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have always ended up in such a sorry state.
In the City of Sea Corals, he had used blood escape, which had seriously injured him.
And to help Lin Yibai restore her appearance, he had to make more unreasonable deals with the Main God's Temple, which had caused complaints in the Demon Realm.
Now, his Soul-Locking Banner had been taken by Shen Qing, he couldn't retrieve his physical body, and his soul was trapped here.
He was the mighty Demon Lord! How had he ended up like this?!
Even someone as love - struck as Ji Chongming had come to his senses a bit.
"Lin Yibai, if it weren't for you, I'd still be the Demon Lord in the Demon Realm living a good life. Now the Soul - Locking Banner is gone, and I'm trapped here just like you. Are you satisfied?!"
Hearing this, Lin Yibai stood there stunned: "What did you say?"
"You're lying to me, right? How could the Soul - Locking Banner be taken away? What about me?!"
Ji Chongming impatiently shook off Lin Yibai and gritted his teeth, suppressing his inner anger: "How should I know what to do about you? I don't even know what to do myself. Can you stop bothering me?!"
Seeing Ji Chongming acting like a madman, Lin Yibai was also filled with anger. She vented all the emotions of being humiliated just now and started hitting and scolding Ji Chongming.
"You useless piece of trash! Why are you so incompetent? How did I end up with you? Trash, trash, trash!!"
Ji Chongming was so annoyed by Lin Yibai that he lost his rationality in a fit of anger. He reached out his hands and tightly grabbed Lin Yibai's neck. Slowly, he tightened his grip until finally, Lin Yibai fell silent, her face turning blue and purple.
He had actually strangled Lin Yibai to death.
Ji Chongming panicked and let go of his hands. He tried to wake Lin Yibai up, but then he noticed that the surrounding environment began to collapse, and the drowsiness in his mind became stronger.
Just before he fell into a deep sleep, he heard Shen Qing's voice: "The dream begins."
He panicked and wanted to beg for mercy, but his eyelids grew heavier and heavier. Finally, he fell into a deep slumber.
After doing all this, Shen Qing sighed and weakly sat on the ground.
Li Xian also staggered down from the sky and landed on the ground. The two sat facing each other. They exchanged a weak look and then smiled at the same time.
Master Honghua glanced at the elders behind him. The elders immediately stepped forward and led away all the Qingyun Sword Sect disciples who were still watching.
After leading them to the training ground, the elders repeatedly warned the disciples to keep their mouths shut and never tell anyone what they had seen today.
Although the disciples were curious, they knew their limits. They were aware that they were in a delicate situation with the Main God's Temple, so they all took an oath and agreed.
Xueling stepped forward, patted Li Xian on the shoulder, then gracefully lifted his cassock and sat cross - legged on the ground, not caring at all that his snow - white cassock was getting dirty from the mud on the ground.
"Li Xian, you little rascal can really run. Do you know how many places I've chased you to?"
Li Xian glared at Xueling angrily. He hadn't even settled the score with Xueling yet. The Great Compassion Mantra in the Glorious Umbrella wasn't recorded by Master Buyan with his spiritual power. It was recorded by Xueling when he was just fooling around.
The Great Compassion Mantra recorded by Master Buyan could calm people's minds, but Xueling's was different.
Seeing Li Xian gasping slightly and still glaring at him, Xueling teased, "What? You used the Glorious Umbrella. Was it good?"
Hearing their conversation, Shen Qing also knew who had recorded the Great Compassion Mantra in the Glorious Umbrella.
Remembering the scene on the glacier, Shen Qing couldn't help but feel a bit amused.
After catching his breath for a while, Li Xian asked Xueling, "Are you and your master so idle that you have to scatter all your magic tools around before you're satisfied? Did you give the Water - Crossing Red Silk to a pair of sisters?"
Xueling stroked his chin and thought for a moment: "It seems so."
"When I passed by the South Sea, I accidentally got poisoned and was saved by those two sisters. To repay them, I gave them the Water - Crossing Red Silk."
Li Xian stared at him coldly and threatened, "Buddhists shouldn't tell lies."
"Okay, okay! I'll tell the truth."
Xueling rubbed his bald head: "Form is emptiness, and emptiness is form. I just thought those two sisters were beautiful, so I wanted to make friends with them. If you want to make friends, you always have to give them gifts, right?"
Li Xian showed an expression that said "I knew it." He took out the Water - Crossing Red Silk he had retrieved from the two sisters from his storage bag and threw it to Xueling.
"Next time you want to give away magic tools, you should check if you're giving them to snake - hearted beauties. I almost died because of this Water - Crossing Red Silk."
Xueling was surprised and quickly caught the Water - Crossing Red Silk: "Really?"
"If that's the case, I have to apologize to you. Well, let me see what other magic tools besides pills I can give you..."
Saying this, Xueling rummaged through his storage bag.
Shen Qing watched their interaction and found it quite interesting.
Not far away, Ling Zhou was getting used to his new body. The spiritual energy all around made him, a demon cultivator, feel very uncomfortable.
"Little disciple, what should I do next? Should I return to the Demon Realm?"
Shen Qing nodded: "Master, you know about my conversation with the Phantom Bell. He must have successfully persuaded the Delusive Thoughts to defect. By then, you should lead the Dark Wolves and the Delusive Thoughts back to the Demon Realm and try your best to rescue the Nether White Wolf Clan."
Ling Zhou nodded but looked bitter: "Little disciple, are you really that confident in me? Aren't you afraid I'll give myself away?"
Shen Qing showed a meaningful smile: "Of course not. We still have a helper."
