Chapter 721 - 623: Uninvited Guest
"Could it be that Li is the founder of the Demon Tree? The mysterious powerhouse descended from the Immortal Realm?"
Wu Yue froze.
She originally thought Chen Xiaoli was just a soul cultivator, a being that had cultivated under the Demon Tree for thousands of years.
Who would have thought, Chen Xiaoli was even more terrifying than a soul cultivator?
Soul cultivators merely absorbed the Demon Breath from the Demon Tree, but the mysterious powerhouse descended from the Immortal Realm was the one who created it single-handedly.
One is on the ground, the other is in the sky.
"Mistress, are you serious?"
Even Ling Ying couldn't help but look at Wu Zetian, eyes full of shock.
Wu Zetian tightly watched Chen Xiaoli in Yang Tian's embrace and found that Chen Xiaoli remained very calm from beginning to end, just quietly lying in Yang Tian's arms, saying nothing.
She became even more convinced that Chen Xiaoli was indeed the founder of the Demon Tree.
"There can be no mistake, Chen Hong was infected by the Demon Cat's poison and has become a creature of the Demon Realm. No one can resurrect her except for the creator of the Demon Realm!" Wu Zetian spoke seriously, "The Demon Tree was created, the Demon Realm developed, and this mysterious powerhouse has the power over life and death in this Demon Realm. Whoever he wants to die will die, whoever he wants to resurrect will be resurrected! If it was indeed Xiaoli who resurrected Chen Hong, then she must be the founder of the Demon Realm!"
Instantly, everyone turned to look at Chen Xiaoli.
At this moment, Chen Xiaoli was very quiet, quietly lying in Yang Tian's arms.
"Xiaoli, what's going on? Tell uncle!" Chen Shangzheng quickly said, but seeing Chen Xiaoli unmoved, he waved his hand, "You're killing me with worry!"
"Xiaoli, are you the founder of the Demon Realm?"
Yang Tian asked.
At this moment, Chen Xiaoli finally reacted, nodded, "Yes, but also no."
"Yes, but also no?"
Wu Yue was puzzled.
"There is the power of the Demon Realm's founder in my blood."
Chen Xiaoli said calmly.
"The power of the Demon Realm's founder is in her blood?" Wu Zetian was shocked, then said, "If that's the case, it means the founder of the Demon Realm has already died, leaving behind vast power, which entered Xiaoli's body through the blood of the Demon Cat, or rather, the founder of the Demon Realm has returned to the Immortal Realm, and the power left in the Human Realm was inherited by Xiaoli!"
"Only this explanation can clarify the situation within Xiaoli's body!"
Wu Yue nodded.
"Now it can be confirmed that Xiaoli indeed has the power of the Demon Realm's founder inside her, but I'm curious, how much has she actually inherited?"
Wu Zetian said and looked at Chen Xiaoli.
But Chen Xiaoli's expression remained calm, with no answer.
"Xiaoli, what level is your cultivation right now?"
Yang Tian spoke while operating his Divine Sense, probing into Chen Xiaoli's body. Soon, he sensed that at this moment, Chen Xiaoli was at most just an existence of Nirvana Realm level.
"Big brother, the demonic energy in my Dantian is as large as a universe, but I've only mastered one ten-thousandth of it. To completely master it, I fear it would take at least another hundred years."
Chen Xiaoli said calmly.
"One ten-thousandth?"
Wu Yue and Ling Ying exchanged glances, a bit disappointed.
They originally thought Chen Xiaoli had already become a terrifying existence, only to find out she had mastered merely one ten-thousandth of the power.
"It's okay, everything can be taken slowly. Maybe one day, Xiaoli will suddenly master all the power, and that would be a terrifying existence!"
Yang Tian said with a smile to Chen Xiaoli.
"Got it, big brother!"
Chen Xiaoli nodded.
"Let's leave here first, it's cold here."
Chen Shangzheng took a deep look at Chen Xiaoli, then instructed several servants to carry Chen Hong out, sending her to the hospital. Half an hour later, news about Chen Hong came back, "Chen Hong is out of danger."
Upon hearing this news, Chen Xiaoli was surprisingly calm.
She no longer lay in Yang Tian's arms, just sat beside him, quietly playing with a Rubik's Cube.
Yang Tian glanced at Chen Xiaoli without disturbing her, called Wu Yue and the other two women, and they discussed how to next confront the Corpse Demon. Just then, a group of uninvited guests arrived at the Chen Family.
"Director Wang, are you here at the Chen Family to catch someone?"
In the hall, Madam Chen's face was extremely somber.
"Madam, we didn't want to trouble you, but we just received a report that a man named Yang Tian, along with four women, blew up an entire village in the outskirts, killing over two hundred people. Based on video from a nearby intersection, we discovered that one of the perpetrators is your family's Chen Xiaoli. We investigated further and soon found out the principal offender is a man named Yang Tian!"
A middle-aged man said with a serious expression, "This matter has already alarmed the higher-ups. We must investigate thoroughly, even if they are from your Chen Family, we have to take them in for accountability!"
