Chapter 22 Nascent Soul Stage Demon Emperor

“Indeed, but that’s how the divination shows. I should leave now. Until we meet again.” The fortune teller turned to leave.

Yun Muhan immediately spoke up: "Wait, could you tell me your name before you leave?"

"I have lived an ordinary life, and I stand tall in this ordinary world. In the martial arts world, everyone calls me Master Fan. Young friend, until we meet again."

The moment the words were spoken, they vanished.

"Xiao Fan, I will definitely break this ominous sign. Just wait and see." After saying this, Yun Muhan quickly adjusted his state, turned around, and swiftly flashed back to the Illusionary Demon City.

In a few breaths, he returned to Xi Ling's side. By then, most of the onlookers had dispersed. Although Xi Ling was stunningly beautiful and had attracted many people, she was still very popular.

However, given the uproar they had just caused, the presence of a distracted husband, and the fact that Xi Ling now had a Nascent Soul cultivator in official robes by her side, they had no choice but to leave obediently.

"Husband, what did he say?"

Yun Muhan stroked Xi Ling's head: "He said we are a match made in heaven."

"Really? I knew it." Xi Ling leaned against Yun Muhan, her eyes shining.

After the two thanked the man in the official robes...

Yun Muhan and Xi Ling strolled leisurely through the Illusionary Demon City. The buildings on both sides of the street were antique and elegant, and the streets were bustling with people.

They looked around curiously, their eyes frequently drawn to novel gadgets.

Just then, several soldiers in armor, looking dashing and heroic, suddenly appeared in front of them.

These soldiers marched in orderly steps, well-trained, and headed straight for Yun Muhan and Xi Ling. Each soldier was at least at the Golden Core stage.

Upon approaching, the leading soldier respectfully saluted the two men and then politely said, "Distinguished guests, we have come on His Majesty's orders to invite you to the palace for a chat."

Yun Muhan was slightly taken aback. He exchanged a glance with Xi Ling, a hint of doubt rising in his heart, but he still smiled and nodded in agreement.

Then, led by the soldiers, they walked through the bustling crowd and along the wide avenue toward the palace.

Along the way, the soldiers remained solemn and silent, while Yun Muhan and Xi Ling admired the scenery and secretly wondered why the emperor had summoned them.

They followed closely behind the soldier, their hearts filled with curiosity and nervousness.

Along the way, they passed through bustling streets, with unique and magnificent buildings on both sides.

Street vendors hawked all sorts of strange and unusual items, attracting passersby to stop and watch.

But Yun Muhan and Xi Ling had no time to care about any of that. All they wanted was to get to the Demon Emperor City as soon as possible and catch a glimpse of the Demon Emperor's splendor.

Finally, after a long journey, a magnificent city came into view.

The city walls soared into the clouds, the gates were tightly shut, and the towers were filled with guards. This demon emperor's city exuded a mysterious and majestic aura, inspiring awe in all who beheld it.

The soldier led Yun Muhan and Xi Ling to the city gate. Upon seeing the token presented by the soldier, the guards immediately opened the city gate.

Inside the gate was a wide, straight avenue leading deep into the palace.

The roadside is lined with exotic flowers and plants, emitting a captivating fragrance.

Yun Muhan and Xi Ling walked cautiously along the main road. Patrol guards passed by from time to time, but they ignored them.

The further you go in, the more magnificent the palace becomes, with its carved beams and painted rafters, its golden splendor dazzling the eye.

Just then, a huge plaza appeared ahead, and in the center of the plaza stood a statue tens of feet tall, the very image of the Demon Emperor. The statue was so lifelike that it seemed as if it might come to life at any moment.

As Yun Muhan and Xi Ling gazed at the statue, their anticipation for their upcoming meeting grew stronger.

After passing the statue, we continued walking into the palace. The guards along the way were all solemn and silent, protecting the palace.

Finally, they arrived before a magnificent hall. Two guards stood at the entrance, each wielding a long spear, their eyes sharp as eagles, their strength clearly at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

After a soldier stepped forward and whispered a few words to the guard, he turned to Yun Muhan and Xi Ling and said, "Please come in, His Majesty has been waiting for a long time."

Yun Muhan and Xi Ling took a deep breath and walked into the main hall with firm steps.

The hall was spacious and bright. On the throne in the center sat a man dressed in a black robe. He was tall and straight, with a cold face and a powerful aura. He must be the Demon Emperor.

The Demon Emperor gazed at the two, a flicker of amazement crossing his mind. He hadn't expected there to be such extraordinary individuals in the city.

This demon emperor's strength was actually at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

"Yun Muhan, do you know why I summoned you here?" The Demon Emperor's voice was deep and magnetic.

Yun Muhan clasped his hands in a salute and said, "I am unaware of this, please enlighten me, Your Majesty."

"My daughter has gone missing. I order you to find the princess." The Demon Emperor's tone was calm, but the imposing aura contained within it was not to be ignored.

Yun Muhan was startled. Although he felt that this matter was quite troublesome, he still gritted his teeth and replied, "Your Majesty, I will do my best to live up to your expectations."
