Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming worked with the Four Great Beast Clans to capture members of the Hei Qilin Tribe. While Yun Sheng worried about eradicating the Blood Mist Poison entirely, she was lured into an ambush by Ya Ji, who had colluded with Dugu Xiu. Dugu Xiu revealed his enhanced power, trapping Yun Sheng.

The Power of Realm, huh?

When she heard this term, Yun Sheng’s heart jolted.

The reason the Netherworld Ghost King could stand on equal footing with Mingri in the Netherworld and enjoy treatment almost like a god was because he had comprehended a special ability called "Realm."

The so‑called Realm was pushing fighting spirit to the extreme, forming around oneself a protective layer of fighting spirit that was almost impossible to break.

As long as one stayed within the protection of the Realm, any Magic, Combat Skills, even Divine-level Divine Skills from the Main God Level could not harm him in the slightest.

It could be said that under the protection of the Power of Realm, Dugu Xiu was invincible.

Yun Sheng’s body stiffened as she felt the hostility radiating from Dugu Xiu, who was so close he was practically within arm’s reach.

The few Black Qilin Soldiers not far away acted as if they hadn’t heard any of this.

Dugu Xiu’s Power of Realm had already reached a point where he could retract and release it at will; as long as he wished, he could do anything to those within the range of his Power of Realm, even crush a person to dust in an instant.

Yun Sheng’s expression changed.

"Speaking of which, all of this is thanks to Ye Beiming. This kind of power originally belonged to him. He willingly abandoned it with his own hands. Yun Sheng, have you ever regretted choosing him back then instead of choosing me?" Dugu Xiu thoroughly enjoyed the benefits this immense power brought him.

"Not everyone is like you, obsessed with power and strength. In my eyes, even if you became a god, you still wouldn’t compare to Ye Huli..." Yun Sheng hadn’t finished speaking when Dugu Xiu’s gaze suddenly sharpened; he clamped a hand around Yun Sheng’s neck.

Her delicate skin, however, burned Dugu Xiu’s palm like red‑hot iron; he glared at Yun Sheng in fury.

This damned woman always had a way of infuriating him in the shortest possible time.

"Yun Sheng, don’t think I’m still the same Dugu Xiu from before. I won’t let you despise me over and over again. Don’t think that just because I like you, you can trample all over me at will. I’ve already tolerated you countless times." Dugu Xiu’s rage dyed his eyes red.

"You can go ahead and try. I promise you, when you strike, I won’t even groan." Yun Sheng’s neck had already turned red from Dugu Xiu’s grip; she felt the air entering her lungs grow less and less.

Gu Duxiu’s nostrils flared with anger; his five fingers tightened one by one. With just a bit more strength, he could kill this woman who was always opposing him.

"Do you know... what the Wuji Continent... has become... Hou Qin has now turned into a dead land." Yun Sheng forced the words out in broken gasps.

"Shut up!" Dugu Xiu roared in fury and flung Yun Sheng to the ground.

"Cough... cough. You don’t let me say it, but I’ll still say it. Dugu Xiu, stop this. You also carry half Human Clan blood in your veins. You were once the Emperor of Hou Qin. Though you were an iron‑blooded Emperor, you did your utmost for the Subjects of Hou Qin. Think of the vast rivers and mountains of Hou Qin, and the millions of Subjects—are you really willing to watch everything you once built be destroyed in an instant?" Yun Sheng’s words pricked Dugu Xiu’s heart like needles.

Hou Qin... his motherland.

Though he had come to the Bahuang Continent years ago, everything about Hou Qin in his memories still felt as if it had happened just yesterday.

Back then, he was still the Iron-blooded Crown Prince of Hou Qin; his father was still alive, and the Empress Dowager was as gentle as ever... it all played vividly before his eyes.

When he saw the Eight Blood Stars explode and the people of the Wuji Continent fall into madness, there had indeed been a faint tremor in Dugu Xiu’s heart.

That place had once also been his motherland.

"Dugu Xiu, I know you care in your heart too. Do you know the way to dispel the blood mist?"

Yun Sheng’s words abruptly cut off Dugu Xiu’s reminiscence.

He stepped forward a few paces and stared fixedly at Yun Sheng.

There were still two bluish-purple finger marks on her neck; they were all his doing.

After fusing the Black Qilin King Heart and the relic, he had become even more violent and bloodthirsty. Just now, there truly had been a moment when he wanted to kill Yun Sheng.

If this went on, would he become someone even he himself couldn’t recognize?

"Yun Sheng, stop worrying about the Wuji Continent and the Bahuang Continent. Come with me—let’s leave everything behind, all right?" Dugu Xiu said in a low voice. He lifted his hand, wanting to touch Yun Sheng’s face.

Yun Sheng opened her mouth, about to refuse, but then she caught the look in Dugu Xiu’s eyes.

Dugu Xiu’s gaze was complicated; there was pleading and sorrow in it. Her face was reflected in his eyes; in that moment, he looked like a patient, placing all his hopes on Yun Sheng.

As long as she nodded once, he would be willing to let go of everything, as long as... she nodded once.

Yun Sheng’s heart stirred; going against her usual habits, she did not immediately shake off Dugu Xiu’s hand.

Inside her body, the power of the Sky Fox Relics slowly began to radiate.

When his calloused hand brushed against Yun Sheng’s smooth skin, Dugu Xiu’s body couldn’t help but tremble.

"Dugu Xiu, look at me. Just now you said you’re willing to let go of everything with the Hei Qilin Tribe and go back to the Wuji Continent with me, right?" Unknowingly, Yun Sheng’s pupils turned gold.

But Dugu Xiu, intoxicated by this rare obedience from Yun Sheng, did not notice.

He only saw that the woman before him wasn’t rejecting him.

There was a faint smile on her lips; in that moment, Yun Sheng was so beautiful that even the moon in the sky would feel ashamed before her.

At this moment, he only wished time could stop, so he could forever look at her, forever be with her.

"I can go back to the Wuji Continent with you, but Yun Sheng, the blood mist is impossible to dispel." Without realizing it, Dugu Xiu spoke what was in his heart.

Impossible to dispel?

Yun Sheng’s heart sank, but she still forced a faint smile onto her face.

"You must have a way, don’t you?"

Dugu Xiu fell silent.

"Dugu Xiu?" Yun Sheng grew a bit anxious.

"Call my name again, softly, like just now." A hint of intoxication appeared in Dugu Xiu’s eyes.

"Dugu Xiu, tell me—what exactly is the method to dispel the blood mist?" Yun Sheng forced herself to be patient and asked once more.

"A method to dispel it, huh... give me a kiss, and I’ll tell you." Dugu Xiu, like a child, shamelessly played the rogue.

Kiss... kiss your damned head, Yun Sheng rolled her eyes hard in her heart.

"Dugu Xiu, you’re welcome to try!" Just as Yun Sheng was locked in a battle between Heaven and Man, an icy voice descended from the sky.

Ye Beiming appeared, carrying a chill all over him.

"Ye Beiming, you really have the worst timing." The moment he saw Ye Beiming, the confusion in Dugu Xiu’s eyes quickly dissipated. With a cold snort, he became that ruthless, merciless Dugu Xiu once more.
