Dance Of The Phoenix
182. Purgatory

Waves of purgatory swept through the entire palace in an instant. Bai Youzhe and Yang Xinyuan went into the air as high as possible to escape the terrifying waves of purgatory. Looking down, Bai Youzhe was unable to find Gu Yuena anywhere.

Yang Xinyuan frowned when she saw the situation on her unstable side. Gu Yuena made a big move by making heavy damage to him, which allowed him to be unable to prepare for war any time soon. Plus, the demon bone was already lost along with Gu Yuena's figure.

Feeling unable to turn things around easily, Yang Xinyuan chose to leave. He simply disappeared and took those who would have survived under the waves of purgatory.

Bai Youzhe did not stop him or chase after him. The purgatory under him completely made him unable to move freely to chase after Yang Xinyuan, so he could only go look for Gu Yuena.

Making this much damage, he was afraid that Gu Yuena was not okay. Moreover, the bloodthirsty demon bones were on his hands.

He left behind a sea of flames that swept across all the strange creatures and death creatures after confirming that Gu Yuena was no longer in this place. He could not trace Gu Yuena's whereabouts, only guessing where Gu Yuena was going.

After several hours of searching around the forest, from a distance, a female figure sat on top of a tree while holding a glittering black object in her hand. Bai Youzhe sighed.

Gu Yuena was fine, it was more than fine. After launching a massive attack, he immediately went carrying the demon bones in sitting quietly on top of the tree while daydreaming.

If his eyes were fine, he would definitely notice the demon bones with both of his red eyes. Now, however, he was just silent there, holding onto the demon bone while closing his eyes and leaning against the tree branch.

His eyes opened when he realized someone was approaching. He sat up straight, along with Bai Youzhe who appeared nearby.

"I waited here long enough." Gu Yuena smiled without guilt. He knew Bai Youzhe would look for him and would not leave the Hell Region before finding him.

It should be known that Gu Yuena still had trouble crossing the spirit river with her vision lost. Although those monsters were no big deal, the direction that should be aimed at was the problem. In air travel without seeing the situation well, Gu Yuena easily got lost.

Bai Youzhe chuckled. "Well, I had to wade through the woods to find you that was hard to trace." He then looked towards the demon bone that Gu Yuena was holding tightly.

"Are you going to destroy this?" Gu Yuena looked doubtful. His face looks grim. "In it is the soul of my father who was recently brought to life. I still feel my father's blood. Will he be at peace after the demon bones are destroyed?"

Bai Youzhe was silent for some time, looking at the demon bone in Gu Yuena's hand. Inside, there was also the soul and blood of his parents. He also smiled wryly. "Yes, they shouldn't have stayed here."

Gu Yuena held onto the demon bone even tighter. He had been with the demon bone for many years. Although the demon bone had no consciousness, its aura was deeply attached and close to Gu Yuena.

This was an evil object that could have touched his mind. Gu Yuena knew that. So he decided on the discomfort in his heart and put the thing into Bai Youzhe's hands just like that.

"Keep that away from me." Gu Yuena felt depressed and unwilling, but she had to do it. Otherwise, Li Hua would definitely find a way to steal it again and torture her father again with an unwanted life. Then the blood will be sacrificed again, he will have even more terrible nightmares.

"Good."

"We return to the Ruler's Palace immediately. I don't like this place."

"Good." Bai Youzhe had nothing else to say thirsty. After storing the demon bones, he carried Gu Yuena flying into the air and left this place.

Comparing the phoenix woman who created the Hell Palace's purgatory wave with the woman who looked more like a girl obediently in her arms, was somewhat unbelievable.

Other than the Phoenix Queen, in this world, it was afraid that no one would be able to use such a large amount of purgatory like Gu Yuena did. And he left unharmed. His control over fire is excellent.

Purgatory is the strongest fire and has a soul and physical burning nature. It was usually used as purification or pill making by alchemists.

Compared to corrosive hellfire and damaging everything that touches it, purgatory is more specific and subtle. It specifically purifies the filthy elements as well as the darkness without residue. That's why death creatures and newly developed strange creatures die faster than some witches who managed to save.

In addition, purgatory has an instant way of killing. If the fire of hell kills by slowly corroding the body without being stopped, the, then purgatory instantly turns it into ash if there is no protection from the opposite element— provided it has a high level of defense.

Since the Hell Region was already chaotic, Bai Youzhe and Gu Yuena could go to the Mitian Plains for further trouble. Originally Gu Yuena was not recommended to leave, but she still had to contact Yuansu Palace.

After the demon bones were destroyed, Gu Yuena became even more relieved than before. Although he was depressed, it was only temporary. The effect of the destruction of the demon bone had completely fixed his mind that had once been corroded by the demon bone.

In the Mitian Plains it had still passed a few days since Gu Yuena had left the Cloud River Valley. The war is still going on. However, both sides this time are designing a military strategy for the next war.

Gu Yuena did not go to the barracks, but rather Yuansu Palace. Bai Youzhe accompanied him from the start and let Gu Yuena see the situation of the Mitian Plains through her eyes.

As Gu Yuena expected, the situation was very bad. Two countries are at war, the people are victims. Yuansu Palace and Luye Palace have made many war refugees in various places and vacated several cities at risk of war looting.

Yuansu Palace became busier than it should have been. All schools were closed, while palace students were carefully prepared to follow the war. Mu Xinhuan was in charge of the disciples, while Shen Jialin was in the refugee camp taking care of many things with Ru Meng.

In this Palace, there were only Mu Xinhuan and the murds at the gate as well as Yun Qiao within the palace. Upon seeing Gu Yuena's arrival, Mu Xinhuang excitedly left the disciples and ran towards Gu Yuena.

However, Bai Youzhe would not let any man touch her Nana. Mu Xinhuan immediately retreated awkwardly.

Come on, he's married too! He won't take his own friend!

"I'll call His Majesty now. You guys come in, I'll ask the waiter to treat you both." Mu Xinhuan nodded respectfully at Bai Youzhe before finally going to call Yun Qiao.

The two stepped inside, accompanied by many pairs of eyes that looked extremely envious looking at the incomparable outstanding appearance of a certain couple.

Recalling how Gu Yuena saved them all using her life during the attack, their eyes were filled with admiration and reverence. He is their benefactor!

It didn't take long for them to wait, because Yun Qiao wouldn't make his special guest wait. Once inside, Mu Xinhuan immediately told. Even before Mu Xinhuan had time to follow Yun Qiao who had gone to meet the guests, Yan Qiao had already disappeared first.

Automatically, Mu Xinhuan was a bit late coming due to Yun Qiao's overzealous speed meeting his younger brother-in-law. As soon as he saw Gu Yuena, his smile became bitter upon seeing a pair of empty gray eyes.

Ah, what a pity the fate of his sister this one ....

But given how crazy Gu Yuena was when in Wyvernia last time, she could not assume that the blindness was something that was extremely detrimental to Gu Yuena.

"Welcome, King of Smell and ... Queen Bai." Yun Qiao originally wanted to call Gu Yuena a younger brother, but he immediately held her back. He should not be disrespectful towards a queen from another palace.

"Why are you so polite? Don't call me queen anywhere else, I'm Gu Yuena. Just Gu Yuena."  Gu Yuena said with a sharp.

Apparently, his nature has not changed at all.

Yes, he is indeed Gu Yuena. He's Xiao Yuena, his younger brother! Yun Qiao was pleased in his heart because there was no need to feel formal in front of the queen who did not want to be recognized as this queen.

Mu Xinhuan also felt the same way.

Bai Youzhe also had no comment. The man smiled instead, then said, "I'm also just Bai Youzhe."

For some reason, Mu Xinhuan and Yun Qiao felt goosebumps at once.

Want to mention King Bai using his name? Fearfully, only a few people are used to it. Those who had once been the target of Bai Youzhe's jealousy didn't have that much courage.

Moreover ... doesn't that man's smile still look very cold?

Gu Yuena felt a change in her emotions the man who became shrivelled like a mouse. Gu Yuena nudged Bai Youzhe, then said, "Are you bothering them again? Don't be a bully."

Bai Youzhe smiled wryly. "Why should I bother? I just want to have a little closeness, what's wrong?"

"That's wrong. They're scared of you, so if you want to get a little closer, they'll be a lot more scared of you."

"What's that?"

"I used to use that trick to scare people." Of course Gu Yuena knew. Especially after feeling the emotional fluctuation of the two poor men.

Bai Youzhe simply nodded her head and said nothing more. His image is irreversible and leave it that way. In the future, he only needed to be kind to Gu Yuena and her children.

Yun Qiao calmed down faster and greeted Gu Yuena. "Xiao Yuena, has your news been good lately?"

"Yes. Despite a lot of changes, I'm still fine. At least, I'm much better than the years before."

"Goodoo. The war going on here is completely chaotic. I hope, you stay fine so that those of us who fight will not worry."

Gu Yuena smiled meaningfully. "In some time, I will definitely go to the battlefield."

"What?" Yun Qiao was surprised. "Xiao Yuena, you ...."

"The Hell's Palace in the Underworld has been in temporary chaos. As long as the Underworld is stable, I will help you achieve victory in the war before the Hell Palace is back in operation. The time in the Underworld was going on very fast. Fearfully, before a year here, the Hell Palace had already recovered its peak strength and was ready to attack."

Yun Qiao felt his back cool down instantly. The Hell Palace will attack? It was simply destruction for the Mitian Plains!

"But I thought, the Hell Palace would only attack the Ruler Palace to gain control of the Underworld. Linghun Palace back then would definitely conduct all-out attacks nonstop. I'll be here with you, against Linghun Palace."
