Liu Bailing stood at the door, watching as Li Yunmu went into the distance and gradually turned into a black dot. After staying for a moment more, she walked toward the lotus pond with a smile on her face.

Li Yunmu went to a place outside Music Clan’s residence where others were present, then turned into a blur that flew into the sky. From up there, all of Music Clan’s residence was fully visible, and he could even hear the wild laughter of the five envoys.

“Laugh as much as you can now, for I will certainly make you weep afterwards.”

After passing through the clouds, Li Yunmu saw an enormous palace. It was built of five-colored ceramic and clearly reflected the background, which made it extremely eye-catching. There was also a wave of ripples which enveloped the entire divine palace. Li Yunmu stretched his hand and touched it. When his fingers touched the ripples, the surface erupted with sparks.

It wasn’t that the defensive spell formation could not be destroyed, but if Li Yunmu was determined to enter, he just needed to endure the explosive thunder. The power of the divine thunder wasn’t very formidable to Li Yunmu, at most, it only had the strength of late stage god. After all, the defensive system was only used as a warning.

If someone forcefully charged in, the five ancient gods would immediately know. It would give them enough time to pull their souls out of the Music Clan and back into their bodies.

“You can come out now. I will leave this defensive spell formation to you,” Li Yunmu mentally told the system.

Its presence appeared right away, and the system directly threw out a ring-sized halo. [This restriction destroying halo isn’t free.]

Li Yunmu looked at the ring sized prohibition destroying halo in his hand with a dumbfounded expression. After a long time, he took a deep breath, then threw the restriction destroying halo into the circulating ripples.

Once the halo came in contact with the ripple shield, it took root in it and directly embedded itself in its surface. The next moment, it formed a gateway large enough to allow a human to pass through.

Li Yunmu stepped into it and entered the divine palace. The restriction breaking halo shrunk and flew into his hand. After taking a glance at it, Li Yunmu placed it on his finger.

Such a good thing could be used again.

After entering the divine palace, he could see many guards outside and people going in and out of the corridors. Some of them were wearing streamers, while others were carrying wine and spirit fruits.

“Strange, this divine palace is the former residence of the seven ancient gods, but even their heirs had to stay in the cities below. Now the divine palace only has five ancient gods who are in seclusion, so who are these beautiful maids carrying the spirit fruit and wine?” Li Yunmu asked with suspicion while frowning.

The system appeared in his mind and anxiously said, [Follow after these servants to see.]

Follow them?

Li Yunmu concealed his figure and fused with the surroundings. With a single step, he appeared behind the last palace maid.

A light breeze blew forth, and the last palace maid trembled. She turned around with suspicion, but didn’t see a soul in sight. She then mumbled to herself and followed after the group.

While following her, Li Yunmu mentally communicated with the system. “What did you discover? I have never seen you so anxious.”

The system didn’t reply, and Li Yunmu pulled back his consciousness after sensing five formidable divine presences concealed in the depths of the palace. That direction should have been the region where the five ancient gods were in seclusion.

But the palace maids were moving in a direction away from where the five ancient gods were in seclusion. They went to the farthest eastern area of the divine palace. In there, some mysterious presence was residing.

It was extremely faint, which was different from the grand divine presences of the five ancient gods. From time to time, it would emit out the power of a law.

The palace maids arrived in front of a black palace at the edge of the eastern area, then stopped and began to wait. Standing behind them, Li Yunmu raised his head and looked at the palace. Thick black fog floated out of the black wall.

Li Yunmu reached out with his hand, and the black god leaped like a snake into his fingertips. The entire fingernail was painted black as if it was painted, but the next instant, the black fog which had invaded his body was instantly ejected and scattered in theair.

“Yin energy...”

How did someone possessing demonic energy appear in the divine palace? The yin energy could be classified as negative and demonic, but it was somewhat inferior to the demonic energy contained in Li Yunmu’s body. However, the crucial point was that none of the seven ancient gods of Lanlou practiced the laws of death.

Without practicing the laws of death, the yin energy couldn’t be controlled.

And if the ancient gods didn’t practice the laws of death, it was even more impossible for their god descendants to possess the laws of death. All the descendant gods walked the path of refining bloodline ability, so they naturally inherited some of the laws from their ancient god ancestors.

Could it be that it was not a god from Lanlou? Li Yunmu frowned slightly while thinking about it.

At that moment, the doors of the palace opened, and a person wearing black clothes walked out. He looked at the rows of palace maids and issued a horrifying laughter then began to speak.

“The ancient gods are indeed considerate, arranging such beautiful maids for me.”

The palace maids carrying the wine and fruits lowered their heads while trembling. They did not dare to say anything.

Li Yunmu looked at the presence coming from the black man and found it completely strange, as if it didn’t belong to the Origin WOrld.

[As expected, it’s them!]

When the system’s voice echoed in Li Yunmu’s mind, he became even more convinced that his guess was correct and followed the maids inside. Once he entered the palace, he encountered a wave of threatening chill wind.

The maid standing at the front trembled from head to toe. Her mortal body was unable to endure the yin energy. It entered her body, and frost condensed between her eyebrows.

While standing before her, the black-robed man glanced around and said with a smile, “Ha ha ha, I am very fond of looking at the vulnerable appearances of you, beauties.”

After saying that, the black-robed man turned around toward the block fog in the front and respectfully said, “Young master, ancient gods contributed some young girls.”

The black fog scattered, revealing the seat of the main god. A young man with naked upper body and two red eyes was looking at the palace maids with excitement.

“The ancient gods are still considerate. I have broken all the young girls in the past few days.”

“What sort of person is the young master? You’re the only son of Yin Emperor. Even the master god of this part of the real world would have to be respectful toward you. In order to move forward, the five ancient gods must serve the young master properly,” the black-robed man said.

Thet young master languidly lying on the main seat had a faint smile. “Naturally, there will be rewards for serving me properly. If the five ancient gods are tactful, I can request two positions for them from father. I heard the five ancient gods want to offer a peak beauty to me, what about that!”

The black-robed man nodded. “The five ancient gods said that they will bring her today.”

“If that woman really is a heaven-shaking beauty like they said, I will bestow the position of master god upon the five ancient gods.”

The feminine young master waved his hand, and a powerful energy grabbed the young woman standing in the front.

The girl struggled while drifting toward the young master with tightly closed lips, but at a speed visible to the naked eye, she turned into a mummy.

Congealed vitality entered the mouth of the young master. The next instant, the entire palace’s yin energy materialized somewhat and became even thicker.
