Boom.

Wu Yu landed on the ground outside the palace.

"Is Brother Sun here? Please come in." Haotian was truly a hypocrite. A few days ago, he had suppressed Wu Yu in the palace, but now, he acted as if nothing had happened and welcomed Wu Yu into the palace.

Truth be told, it wasn't that he thought highly of Wu Yu, but that he was worried that Wu Yu would be forced into a corner and provoke the Heavenly Sword Sect.

After all, according to the agreement between the two sects, Wu Yu should be stationed in Wu City, so it was about time for them to leave.

After entering the palace, only Haotian, the empress dowager Yuan Xi, and the emperor Yuan Hao remained. Jiang Junlin and Yuan Chen probably wouldn't appear today. Presumably, they had other matters to attend to when they returned to Wu City. A character like Jiang Junlin wouldn't waste his time in a small place like the Royal Palace.

The last time he had appeared to suppress Wu Yu, it was probably because Yuan Chen had instigated it.

Of course, they might not go far.

Wu Yu also found it advantageous that they weren't present at the scene.

Not long after, Princess Wuyou arrived. Wu Yu, in order to lay the groundwork for her arrival, had spoken to her throughout the conversation, leaving behind Yuan Xi, Yuan Hao, and Haotian.

Emperor Yuan Hao interrupted with a sneer, "In order to see my future husband, I will definitely have to decorate him a bit."

Wu Yu nodded his head and said, "Since ancient times, a beautiful woman is compatible with a hero. That King of Nine Killing must also be a hero. He looks like a handsome man, handsome and suave. Otherwise, he wouldn't have matched up with Princess Wuyou." As the saying goes, a flower cannot be placed on cow dung. "

Everyone felt a little awkward when she said this. The empress dowager, Yuan Xi, covered her cherry lips with a smile and said, "Great Immortal Sun sure knows how to joke around. This man can't only look at appearances, he also has to look at skill. He's truly a capable person."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a commotion from outside.

Wu Yu seemed to have sensed something, and felt that the person in front of him was definitely not a good person.

From ancient times until now, those who killed people like this would always have an aura of death, a murderous aura, and even evil spirits that surrounded them. Those who stood outside the palace were the people who killed people like this. Such a person was not to be tolerated in the Immortal Dao. In fact, he was even more likely to be exterminated than Demonic cultivators.

Wu Yu raised his head and saw that a huge shadow had appeared on the door of the palace. It was a man of about the same height as Wu You, but more than three times the height of his body. His muscular arms were as thick as Wu Yu's thighs, and his exposed black skin had a lot of tattoos on it.

Looking up, he was at least 50 years old. He was completely bald and there was a huge scar on his face. One of his eyes had been blinded, and the other one looked especially ferocious.

A mouthful of yellow teeth was an even more appalling sight. They must have frequently eaten raw meat to be so filthy.

This, was precisely the Nine Annihilations Monarch.

An ugly beast.

No wonder the empress dowager, Yuan Xi, said that the Emperor of the Nine Killings was a capable man.

Being so ugly was something rarely seen in this world.

Even though Princess Wuyou was experienced and knowledgeable, she felt a sense of dryness after seeing this Emperor of the Nine Annihilations. As for Wu Yu, his heart seethed with rage. If he came back late and allowed Princess Wuyou to follow this Nine-Headed Annihilation Monarch and didn't even commit suicide, then Princess Wuyou really would have entered hell.

"My name is Nine Annihilators, and I offer my respects to the two of you, Exalted Immortal EastWu!" The Emperor of the Nine Killings was extremely boorish. Upon entering, he laughed heartily and bowed towards Wu Yu and Haotian.

It was only at this time that Wu Yu finally saw the person behind the Nine Annihilations Monarch.

Spook.

The Nine Annihilating Lord's body was too thick and sturdy, just enough to obstruct Wu Yu's line of sight. In reality, no matter how savage and ugly the Nine Annihilating Lord was, the true cause of Wu Yu's fear was this ghostly Ji.

She wasn't tall, but she was graceful with a black cape on her head. Wu Yu could not see her face clearly, but what gave Wu Yu the deepest impression was her sinister aura. Compared to the Nine Annihilations Monarch, she was restrained.

"So powerful..."

Wu Yu's face under the mask frowned once again.

"In Wu City, Jiang Junlin is definitely the strongest. Below them were Haotian and the ghostly girl. In terms of baleful aura and sinister aura, Phantom Ji is even heavier. However, Hao Tian's cultivation is orthodox and his mana is vigorous. He should be an entire realm higher than Ghost Ji Ji. As for Phantom Ji, although it is terrifying, in terms of realm, it should be at least one or two levels higher than Situ Qing … "

If it was just guesses, one couldn't completely ascertain their strength. In fact, it was possible for them to start a fight, and the other party had even more hidden trump cards.

"In short, this ghost Ji is stronger than the limit that I can bear. If we start fighting, my chances of winning are less than 20%. "

That's a pretty dangerous figure.

After all, Wu Yu's true cultivation base was only at the ninth level of the Spirit Dao.

He and Princess Wuyou had already made an agreement, and had already drawn twice on the table. Since it was inconvenient for them to converse in the Sky Wu Palace, Wu Yu was telling Wu You that his odds of winning were only 20%.

Princess Wuyou understood.

This chance of winning was too low. She had also anticipated such a troublesome situation, so she decided to bear with it.

"Please take a seat."

There were no ordinary mortals here, so he personally welcomed the Nine Annihilation Monarch to his seat. As for that Nine Annihilations Monarch, he could be considered the follower of the Nine Annihilations Monarch, following behind her all the way.

At this moment, he was afraid that he would see Princess Wuyou. His eyes immediately lit up, unable to shift away from her gaze.

Princess Wuyou's reputation had spread far and wide. Even if he was in the East China Sea, he was still like a thunderclap that echoed in everyone's ears.

For a time, everyone sat down in their seats. It was only at this moment that the ghost Ji Hao took off his cloak, and under the cloak was a very ordinary face, not a beauty, but a pair of dark purple eyes that looked terrifying. Her lips, which should have been red, actually had a dark purple hue to it. There was a black mark on the side of her lips, which affected her beauty and made her look even more unsightly.

The name was rather enchanting, but their looks were far inferior to Wu You. No wonder the Nine Annihilations Monarch acted as if he had never seen a beauty, staring at Wu You from start to finish, his eyes almost falling off. That crude and full of desire in his eyes made Wu You feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Sun Wudao, I am a woman, why don't you take off your mask and let us see your true appearance?" After she took off her cloak, the first person she targeted was Wu Yu.

However, although this ghostJi had an ordinary appearance, her voice was especially pleasant to listen to. It was soft and soft, causing one to feel a sense of numbness.

"Natural born ugly, unwilling to see the face of others." Wu Yu replied.

"Hehe, can you be as ugly as me?" Gui Ji said with a faint smile.

"The spirit is moving, ten times better than me." Because Ji Hao was too strong, Wu Yu's plans had to change. For the sake of Princess Wuyou's life, he had no choice but to change his attitude.

"This wine is quite delicious. It's just that it isn't nourished like the baby's blood." While she was tasting the wine, she squinted her eyes and put on a look of enjoyment.

If he wasn't a spectral cultivator, how could he have uttered such a phrase?

Seeing that the crowd was almost suffocated, the ghost girl quickly laughed and said, "I'm just joking with you all. My ghost Ji is an upright, orthodox cultivator who has inherited the teachings of the 'Seven Fairies of the Red Sea'. How can he drink baby blood?"

After he finished speaking, Haotian and the others all laughed, then they changed the topic, "Ghost Ji, the Nine Annihilations King. Now that you have also met Princess Wuyou, I wonder if you two are satisfied with Princess Wuyou?"

The Ninth Annihilation King hurriedly nodded and said, "Satisfied, extremely satisfied. To be able to marry a beauty like Princess Wuyou is something that I, the Ninth Annihilation King, cultivated for eight lifetimes!"

In his eight lifetimes, he would probably only kill his enemies, where would he get his merits?

Great Immortal Haotian faintly smiled and said: "Since that's the case, then according to the agreement, you can win Princess Wuyou tomorrow and return to the Eastern Divine Kingdom. Our Princess Wuyou has also been waiting for a long time. "

"No problem, absolutely no problem." The Ninth Annihilation Monarch's face was full of smiles, but he also looked extremely sinister.

Wu Yu's heart was like a volcano. Right now, he was considering whether he should make a move right now, claiming that he had fallen in love with Princess Wuyou, and that he wanted to compete against her. If that was the case, then he would have to fight against the Specter.

However, Wu You had actually attracted the attention of everyone before him, especially the fixed gaze of the Nine Annihilations Monarch.

Wu You was wiping the tears from his brow with a handkerchief while sobbing. That look was really touching and touching to behold. In Wu Yu's memory, she had never looked so delicate. Even if it was just tears, she was still tough.

"Pah!" Yuan Hao was infuriated. He slapped the table and stood up saying, "Wu You, what are you doing …"

Before he could finish his words, he was already pressed down by High Immortal Clear Sky. All the words that he wanted to say were blocked. From their point of view, Wu You was obviously trying to think of a way to escape, but that could not be stated explicitly. After all, Gui Ji and the others were here.

"What happened to Princess Wuyou?" When the Nine Annihilation King saw her sobbing, he feared that his heart was going to melt.

"I... "Nothing." Wu You shook his head, looking as if he was trying hard to control himself.

"No, you must say that if there are any difficulties, as your future husband, I am definitely going to solve them for you." The Nine Annihilating Monarch patted his chest and said grandly.

Under his questioning, Wu You could only say, "Actually... It's not a big deal, it's just. I grew up in Wu City and my loved ones are all here. I don't know when I'll be able to return to the Eastern Divine Kingdom, but when I think about leaving home in the future, I can't help but feel sad.

These days, I have been sick and haven't had the time to say goodbye to my family and friends, nor have I been able to see Wu Du properly.

"So it's like that. But, if you marry me, you must obtain the Eastern Divine Kingdom." The Nine Killings of the King.

"If... If I could not be in such a hurry, I would not have to leave tomorrow. I would have another month to linger in Wu Du, and that would be great. Moreover, I have only just recovered from my severe illness. On the way to the Eastern Divine Kingdom, I have been working all day, but I was afraid that my body might not be able to take it … "

Wu You was very clear what this Nine Annihilation Monarch was unable to resist.

"Alright, then let's rest for a month first. At worst, we can just stay in Wu City for a month and take a good look at this bustling Wu City." The Ninth Annihilation King immediately agreed.

At this time, Wu Yu finally understood Wu You's intention. She was stalling for a month to give Wu Yu the opportunity to cultivate and prepare. Her performance today was truly amazing.

This was something that even Clear Sky Immortal and the others couldn't say. Seeing that they were about to object, Wu Yu said, "Since that's the case, then let's stay here for another month. I see that Ghost Ji has a powerful mana, so it's rare for her to meet someone close to her. I also want to consult with her."

Without a doubt, she was a spectral cultivator.

"Alright, then I'll stay for a month." Sure enough, after Wu Yu's words, Wise Ji had made her decision. Actually, the Emperor of the Nine Annihilations would listen to her. Staying here for a month was something that she would have to rely on Ghost Ji to speak.

As expected, after hearing what Ghost Ji said, Clear Sky and the others could only shut their mouths.

However, at this time, Wu Yu interrupted them, drawing the attention of Great Immortal Haotian and the others.

Of course, Wu Yu had made them realize that he seemed to be interested in Princess Wuyou.

This way, in a month's time, they wouldn't think it was too sudden if he stole the marriage away from them in public.

Halfway through the banquet, Princess Wuyou declared that she was not feeling well and needed some rest before leaving. Wu Yu didn't linger for too long either. As for what happened in the palace after he left, he didn't know.

"At the very least, I can risk my life for another month!"

After a month, there would be no more chances.

Wu You's life and death were all within this month's effort.

"Victory means life, defeat means death."
