C697 (1/2)

Right now, Wu Yu only wanted to reach the Immortal Soul stage as soon as possible, so there was no need to think about the future.

Actually, only until now did the path of the Immemorial Immortal close down. Only then could the previous journey to the Immemorial Immortal Path be considered to have officially ended.

Since they were going to wait here, then so be it. The two of them retreated to the side, standing in the corner of the 'Netherworld Hall'.

As for the five great characters, they also didn't communicate with each other. They were all counting the time.

Wu Yu and princess You Yu didn't have much to say to each other at this time, so they just stood there quietly. For a time, the entire Nether Palace was frighteningly quiet.

In fact, the five of them would occasionally glance at Wu Yu, perhaps sensing that Wu Yu's physical body had become more prominent. They would also be curious about what kind of inheritance and secrets Wu Yu possessed.

After all, in a place like the Divine Continent of East Victory, normally speaking, it was impossible for someone like him to appear.

The news of him defeating Yan Xuan had actually caused a small commotion in the Yan Huang Ancient Region, especially in the Darknorth Empire, where it had spread far and wide.

From the Violet Palace Realm to the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Stage, no matter how one put it, this was unprecedented. Thus, many people were curious, what secrets did he have on him? If it wasn't for Princess You You's resolute attitude to protect Wu Yu, his situation would have been extremely dangerous.

However, they were still worried about the matter of the Immemorial Immortal Road, so their attention quickly shifted to Wu Yu. They anxiously waited, and the more time passed, the more anxious they became.

In the end, there were only fifteen minutes left. You Shang helplessly shook his head and said, ”Everyone, there is no hope.”

”Don't say it yet. It hasn't closed yet.” Yan Qing was a little irritable and did not give some face to You Shang.

After all, when facing other cultivators from the ancient kingdom, they all felt a sense of superiority. They had always been the rulers of this ancient kingdom.

Even if his strength was inferior to Yama Minamiya's, he still had to be respectful to her.

You Shang was too lazy to say anything else.

In any case, fifteen minutes would pass quickly.

They'd been tormented for the remaining fifteen minutes. Basically, they all stood up from their seats and paced around with unsightly expressions.

In the end, it was time, but no news came.

Of course, Wu Yu already knew the result, so to him, there was no suspense at all.

Time was up, but Yan Qing still said, ”They might have come out at the last moment and sent out a message talisman. It will take another quarter-hour for the message to arrive.”

He had already instructed that regardless of whether or not he came out, he would still have to send a message. Since he had yet to receive the token, there was still hope.

However, if they had come out a quarter of an hour earlier, the token should have arrived by now. Could all four of them have come out at the last moment? It's unlikely.

Thus, even though he said those words, Yan Qing's depressed expression showed that he had given up on his own accord.

Wu Yu and You Yu glanced at each other. Princess You Yu felt lucky in her heart. If she hadn't decided to take out the 'Soul Controlling Blood Array' in the end, You Shang would have needed to wait in such a hurry as well.

She was his youngest daughter, and he had always doted on her.

Not only that, Wu Yu actually didn't treat her very badly, he never allowed her to lose her dignity, and only asked her to help.

Even if Yan Qing was stubborn, another quarter-hour passed. At this time, the message talisman arrived on time. The four of them received the message talisman almost at the same time. When they opened it up to take a look, their expressions became even worse.

They put down the transmission talisman and looked at each other. They knew from the expressions of others that none of them had come out.

Even the Nine Star Snow Horned, Eight Winged Golden Roc and Heavenly Emperor Tree that the rumors said had yet to return, were probably gone.

After closing the door, they have yet to return. Historically speaking, it can be determined that these people are already dead. At the very least, they will no longer appear in the world of Yan Fu.

To the huge powers behind these people, this was a huge blow. The Yan Huang Ancient Kingdom, the Demon Emperor's Dynasty, the Chu Yun Nation, and the Eternal Sword Dao.

The faces of the four of them were filled with depression and helplessness!

”The young prince is very talented. In the future, he'll be able to take over as the prince of the eastern region and revitalize the eastern region …”

”In the future, Prince Feng will definitely become a Demon Lord! ”What a pity!”

”Who would have thought that the Primordial Immortal Road would actually cause such a huge loss! When the Primordial Immortal Road opens in the future, who would be willing to enter?! ”

”This time, too many of the top geniuses have died, especially in the Yan Huang Country. They even lost Prince Wen Li, Qu Haoyan, and others …”

Indeed, the Yanzhuang Kingdom was the one that had lost the most.

They were all envious of Quiet And Steadfast because he was the only survivor of their group.
