"However, even if those fellows outside can't break in for now, they'll never give up easily. Their goal is to kill me."
Su Qingluo perceived the five Earth Immortal experts outside the palace and said coldly.
"In this era of yours, Earth Immortal experts are already the top-tier powerhouses, and conflicts between them are not to be taken lightly. Why must they kill you?"
The Great Strength Demon God frowned and asked.
"Of course, this is your private affair. No need to tell me if it's inconvenient," the Great Strength Demon God added.
"They're hunting me because I recently broke through to Earth Immortal, which drastically increased the overall strength of our Reincarnation Palace and upset the power balance in the Main World. They fear my strength will continue to grow in the future, and I will eventually lead the Reincarnation Palace to become the strongest force in the Main World. So they want to eliminate me preemptively."
Over this period, Su Qingluo had long since figured out the reasons why those five Earth Immortal experts would target her.
"So that's how it is. Given your talent and the strength you possess now, your development potential for the future is indeed immense. No wonder they're worried. Moreover, since they've already made a move, there's no turning back for them. Otherwise, you would definitely seek mad vengeance against them. Offending an Earth Immortal is an unbearable burden for any power. So unless they kill you, they certainly won't back down."
The Great Strength Demon God nodded after hearing Su Qingluo's words.
"Young lady, what are your plans? You cannot stay within my domain forever," the Great Strength Demon God asked.
"I will find a way to leave this place. And I will definitely get my revenge!"
Su Qingluo said through gritted teeth.
"With five Earth Immortal experts guarding outside, it would be extremely difficult for you to leave," the Great Strength Demon God said while shaking his head.
"Yes."
Su Qingluo's expression darkened slightly. She knew those five Earth Immortals outside would absolutely not give up hunting her!
"Qingluo, then you can stay here for the time being. We'll see how long they can wait outside. Don't worry, I'll use these three formations to stop them from getting in. Moreover, I'll deploy even more formations to reinforce this palace's defense. With me here, it will be very hard for them to enter."
Ye Yunfei said to Su Qingluo.
"I must go out. On this journey to the secret realm, I brought a large group of the Reincarnation Palace's elite members with me. If I don't go out, those Reincarnation Palace members I brought will surely be massacred. Moreover, since they've already moved against me, they must have surely planned their next move against the Reincarnation Palace as well. As the Palace Master, I can't hide in here forever."
Su Qingluo shook her head as she replied.
Ye Yunfei fell silent for a moment upon hearing her words.
"If you truly wish to leave this place, I can utilize the power of the restrictions to send you out. However, after you leave, those five Earth Immortal experts will undoubtedly continue hunting you relentlessly. Comparatively, staying within my domain is actually the safest. You should think it over carefully."
The Great Strength Demon God suddenly spoke.
"Senior, do you have a way to send me out of here?"
Upon hearing the Great Strength Demon God's words, Su Qingluo couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"Yes. Before my downfall in those days, I spent a tremendous amount of time and resources to deploy countless restrictions all across this Small World. Getting you out isn't difficult for me. But once you leave, those five Earth Immortal experts will surely continue hunting you. Can you handle that?"
The Great Strength Demon God nodded and said.
"I've temporarily recovered my strength for now. I certainly cannot defeat all five of them joined together. However, I am also an Earth Immortal. They won't find it easy to kill me. Besides, as the Palace Master of the Reincarnation Palace, I cannot ignore what's happening outside and stay hiding here forever. The Palace needs me most at this moment."
Su Qingluo pondered for a moment, then said in a grave tone.
"Hmm, young lady, your sense of responsibility is strong, and it suits my liking. If you must go out, I can help you."
The Great Strength Demon God's gaze showed approval as he nodded.
"Senior, I wish to go out."
Su Qingluo stated with firm resolve.
"Qingluo, I'll go with you."
Ye Yunfei suddenly said to Su Qingluo.
"You? Accompany me? No need. To be blunt, with your current strength, following me would only make you a burden."
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Su Qingluo felt a flicker of gratitude in her heart, but she rejected him immediately.
"I won't be a burden."
Ye Yunfei shook his head.
Then, Ye Yunfei directly pulled out a large handful of formation flags and tossed them fiercely around him.
Boom boom boom...
Formations formed in an instant, continuously appearing and enveloping the area around Ye Yunfei's body.
In less than half a breath of time, a total of thirteen formations had been deployed, densely floating around Ye Yunfei's body, layering upon layer to protect him.
A year ago, Ye Yunfei could instantly deploy ten formations. Now he could deploy thirteen at once! His formation skills had improved once again during this past year!
"This is Waving Hand to Form Formations!"
Both the Great Strength Demon God and Su Qingluo were somewhat surprised upon seeing this. Given their knowledge and insight, they naturally knew what Waving Hand to Form Formations meant.
"Young man, you've cultivated Waving Hand to Form Formations to a realm where you can instantly deploy thirteen formations. Quite remarkable."
The Great Strength Demon God couldn't help but praise.
"Even an Earth Immortal would need a few breaths of time to unravel these thirteen formations. That's enough time for me to escape completely."
Ye Yunfei said with a smile.
"No."
Su Qingluo shook her head.
"With your current strength, escaping from an Earth Immortal in a few breaths is impossible. An Earth Immortal can forcefully seal a vast expanse of space with a single thought."
"I have this."
Ye Yunfei took out the Space Teleportation Token.
"This treasure can allow me to teleport instantly over a vast distance. Perhaps it would be even more useful in your hands."
Ye Yunfei said to Su Qingluo.
"What treasure is this?"
The Great Strength Demon God examined the Space Teleportation Token in Ye Yunfei's hand.
Rumble...
Ye Yunfei directly activated the Space Teleportation Token, unleashing a powerful surge of teleportation energy.
"So it's a teleportation treasure. Seems quite impressive!"
The Great Strength Demon God was somewhat surprised.
"This aura feels somewhat similar to the treasures left behind by the ancient Heavenly Court."
The Great Strength Demon God examined the Space Teleportation Token again, then spoke with some astonishment.
"Treasure left behind by the Heavenly Court?"
Ye Yunfei was taken aback.
"Senior, this teleportation treasure was gifted to me by a senior proficient in sword techniques," Ye Yunfei replied. He had obtained this Space Teleportation Token within the Sword Grave. That blue-robed man within the Sword Grave had given Ye Yunfei a spatial ring, and the token was found inside that ring.
"A senior proficient in sword techniques? Execute one of his sword techniques for me to see."
The Great Strength Demon God said.
Clang!
Ye Yunfei flicked his hand, unleashing a blade of sword light that sliced through the space before him.
"This swordsmanship inheritance is quite good, but it isn't the sword art of the ancient Heavenly Court. However, this teleportation treasure does indeed look very much like a treasure of the Heavenly Court. It's possible the senior you mentioned acquired it by chance and then gifted it to you."
The Great Strength Demon God said.
"Can I take a look at this teleportation treasure?"
Su Qingluo had been perceiving the Space Teleportation Token in Ye Yunfei's hand all along and spoke to him now.
"Of course."
Without a second thought, Ye Yunfei directly handed the Space Teleportation Token to Su Qingluo.
Su Qingluo's beautiful face flushed slightly. She could clearly sense that Ye Yunfei treated her the same as before!
"Can I really accept him again?"
Su Qingluo felt somewhat conflicted.
"With the Reincarnation Palace currently facing internal and external troubles, how can I afford to consider such romantic attachments!"
Suddenly, Su Qingluo's heart tensed. Several major powers from the Main World clearly intended to join forces against the Reincarnation Palace, and there were definitely still traitors within the Palace as well. This was precisely when the Palace Master was needed most!
"This teleportation treasure is excellent. It can teleport over an immense distance instantly. In my hands, it can indeed play a greater role than in yours!"
After receiving the Space Teleportation Token, Su Qingluo channeled her spatial energy into it, instantly unleashing a terrifying surge of teleportation energy.
"Since that's the case, Qingluo, you can hold onto this teleportation token for now," Ye Yunfei said directly.
"Young man, your formation skill is excellent. Perhaps the two of you working together would be an even better arrangement."
The Great Strength Demon God could tell that there definitely existed a subtle emotional entanglement between Ye Yunfei and Su Qingluo. He wanted to take this opportunity to bring them closer. In fact, in his mind, he had already taken Ye Yunfei as his successor, as he had imparted most of his body-refining inheritance to him.
"So, young lady, if you must go out, let him go with you. Working together as a team might prove to be extremely effective. Once encountering a powerful enemy, he can focus on deploying formations while you focus on offense and controlling the teleportation token. You can attack if possible and retreat swiftly if necessary. It truly is a perfect match."
The Great Strength Demon God said.
Hearing the words 'perfect match,' Su Qingluo couldn't help but blush.
"Actually, you don't have to risk going out with me. Those Earth Immortals only wish to deal with me. As long as you aren't with me, they won't target you," Su Qingluo said softly as she looked at Ye Yunfei.
