"How dare you talk back?!"

Seeing that Ying Li's wings had hardened and he even dared to bite him back, Han Jin immediately became furious and rushed forward in rage.

"What's wrong with talking back?"

Ying Li didn't want to spoil her at all, so he threw away the quilt and pounced on her without even putting on his shoes.

"Bang--pop..."

The two of them had a very good understanding of each other. Neither of them used magic. They just wrestled with bare hands, deciding the winner with hand-to-hand combat, using all kinds of punches and kicks at each other's body, and each strike was full of strength.

After a commotion, two exhausted "spread-out" figures appeared in the messy wooden house. They lay on the ground panting and motionless, gasping for breath. They didn't even have the energy to scold, let alone fight.

Ying Li realized that fighting without magic was even more tiring than fighting with magic. After all, he had relied on magic for too long, and he had been in the form of inner elixir or flower seeds for such a long time.

Even though he often engaged in hand-to-hand combat in normal battles, he had certain sword skills, but they were done with the assistance of magic, which was much more energy-saving than relying solely on physical strength to punch and kick.

"Huh... you guys are quite good at fighting..."

Han Jin turned to Ying Li, his tone showing nine and a half points of unconvinced. It looked like he was not going to let him go.

Ying Li frowned, and after calming down, he naturally didn't want to argue with her. He said coldly:

"If you dare to say something foul again, the one-year agreement will be void."

"I was wrong!"

Han Jin is a woman who can bend and stretch. It's a small matter to suffer a loss in words, but it's a big matter if you can't catch a man. I won't bother with you, a man with a stinky face like a coffin!

Ying Li knew without guessing that Han Jin was scolding her because of the psychological changes going on. Her expression of trying hard to suppress her anger had already betrayed her.

He sighed, "You have such a big problem with me, but you still insist on being my boyfriend for a year? Forget it, it's a waste of feelings and time."

"Who, who has a big opinion? I don't, it's not me, don't talk nonsense!"

Han Jin seemed to have been given an injection of chicken blood and instantly regained his strength. He sat up straight and was about to argue with Ying Li.

Ying Li was almost able to stand up. It was a lie to say that his strength was exhausted. At their level, as long as they had enough magic power, the lost strength could be recovered instantly.

"Forget it, I won't talk nonsense with you. Thank you for bringing me back. Why are you here?"

"Nonsense! If I don't chase after him, won't my husband be lost? As long as you are in the Eternal Night Empire, the Seven Deadly Sins' spies will keep a close eye on you. Why do you think I'm a trained agent?"

"Uh… okay."

Ying Li always felt that Han Jin had an obsession with him that was almost perverted. His possessiveness was too strong. He would keep a close eye on him wherever he went. Could he be considered a yandere?

Han Jin squatted beside Ying Li, grabbed his collar, and asked aggressively:

"Tell me! Why did you abandon my sister and run to the Dark River in Hades Province alone?"

This involves the plan that Ying Li had made himself, a great battle across the three realms. Coming to this "Mingyuan River" is to go to another world!

As early as when Ying Li learned about the Hardyworth Province, he had a feeling about this name. Among the large number of messages this morning, there was one sent by another Welanti spy, Carina. After reading it, he was more certain of his intuition -

This place has a story!

Although the total amount of information was not as explosive as Sayer's, it was also quite useful and gave him inspiration.

The Hardyworth Province is located in the eastern part of the Northern Continent. It is the largest province in the Eternal Night Empire and ranks third in comprehensive strength. It is also the area with the most remnant demon forces.

Among the many tributaries of Tianjiang, the mother river of the Eternal Night Empire, there is a river that leads to the "world of the dead", which is the "Mingyuan River" that he just wanted to cross before he fell into a coma.

With the help of Weilanti's technology, Karina observed and found that there were strong spatial fluctuations in this place. This wave did not belong to the demon world, nor to Weilanti, nor to the heaven.

This is interesting. Is it the fourth world after the demon world, the virtual world, and the heavenly world?

"Do you know? In your country, in this Mingyuan River, there is a gate to another world!" Ying Li said mysteriously.

Han Jin's eyes lit up, and her mouth opened slightly in surprise. This reaction was obviously unknown. She shook her head and said:

"The Hardiworth Province is only slightly more developed than the White Night Province. We don't know the details of many places."

After thinking for a while, Han Jin suddenly said:

"Marshal Ling Yuan was in charge of the reclamation of this place. The report she gave said that there are indeed forces that do not belong to the demon world here, but they have no hostility towards Yong Ye. As long as we do not interfere with each other, our people can live and work in peace here."

Ying Li: "Then why don't you continue exploring? At least you should know the other party's background."

Han Jin asked back: "Guess why Lin Yuan, who is in charge of the Hardyworth Province Reclamation Project, is not in Hardyworth now but in the Isaline Singla Province?"

"..."

Ying Li didn't know the reason, but it seemed to be related to the land reclamation. Han Jin continued:

"It is because of this ambiguous report that my father has the same idea as you. How can we ensure that our people can live and work in peace if we don't even know the other party's identity?"

"So, my father dismissed her from her position as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Linyuan Reclamation Corps, and she went to Yucheng to retire. But as a 'Void Walker' who is close to darkness, she must have used her own methods to know something. I suggest you go find her."

Ying Li thought for a moment and decided that this was fine. He still remembered that when he helped Lin Yuan to solve the Beast Gate of Hui Yuan, she promised to help him forge a magic weapon made of "Abyss Crystal".

Speaking of which, I almost forgot about this Han Jin in front of me, who actually intercepted one of his own sister's soul.

Ying Li said in a deep voice: "I do want to go to Lin Yuan, but I have to solve the recent problem first. Hand over your sister's soul. Why do you want to take it if it's not yours?"

"Forehead……"

Han Jin scratched his head with a wry smile. He thought that as long as there were enough trivial matters, this upright guy would forget about it, but he actually remembered it.

"Can we...can we discuss this?" Han Jin grabbed Ying Li's hand and asked in a pleading tone.

Ying Li was furious. His patience with Han Jin was almost reaching its limit. "Why? You need to give me a reason!"

"Well... there are two points, no! Three points to be exact!"

"Let the fart go."

"You... tsk! Forget it..."

Han Jin was afraid that Ying Li would get angry and dump him, so he could only explain patiently:

"First, of course, I'm using this to threaten you two. I'm afraid you'll break your promise, and I'm even more afraid that stupid sister will take you away from me."

"Secondly, among all my magic swords, there is one that is powered by souls. It has not yet been fully cultivated. I need to use a soul to temper the sword..."

Ying Li was not happy when he heard this and interrupted, "So you came up with the idea of ​​using your own sister's soul to forge a weapon, right? You don't do things this way!"

"Oh! You make me sound like a despicable person. Can you please listen to me?" Han Jin pinched the soft flesh on Ying Li's waist anxiously and quickly explained:

"It's not like it's gone once used up. I just consumed a little bit. It can be restored after maintenance!"

"Humph! I still don't want you to ruin it. What if something goes wrong?"

"Listen to me, listen to me..." Han Jin repeatedly tried to calm Ying Li's anger.

"The third point is also the most crucial one. With her current state, absorbing a soul could be fatal. The soul is a hundred times heavier than the spirit. After all, it is the core of the three souls and seven spirits. Think about it..."

Ying Li frowned. He indeed had not considered this point. He just thought that he could inject it into her body like watering or fertilizing. He had not considered whether Galantina could withstand such gravity in her current condition.

"Hey...what should I do then?"

Ying Li said dejectedly that it felt that restoring Galantina's health was more difficult than returning to the realm of Demon Lord himself.

Han Jin smiled slightly, patted Ying Li on the head, and said:

"Be good~ calm down and listen to me, I'll take care of it. When I'm done, I'll use my magic sword of time "Shimang" to turn back time for her. Then won't the soul I used up be restored?"

Ying Li curled his lips and said with disdain: "Last time I used the "Darkest Inscription", your recovery method was unsuccessful."

"Cough cough!"

Han Jin used violent coughing to cover up his embarrassment and explained with a red face:

"How can that be the same? You have the 'Nine Dark Absolutes', how can you compare them with a mere soul? That's called having priority over me!"

"Snapped!"

Ying Li suddenly slapped the floor beside him, which startled Han Jin, who looked at Ying Li in surprise.

"What...what happened?"

"How can you say it's just a soul? That's a life. Are other people's lives so worthless in your eyes? Besides, she is my woman and your biological sister!"

"Okay, okay... I was wrong, I was wrong, isn't that enough~" Han Jin quickly apologized with a smile, but he was furious in his heart, repeatedly scolding Ying Li for being a saintly bitch, a goody-goody, and a hypocrite...

In fact, Ying Li is not a good guy, he just loves his woman very much and is quite protective of her. Maybe, compared to other demon lords, Ying Li is really a "good demon"?

In fact, none of the Five Demon Lords are good people. They can be said to be "all bad guys". After all, from their perspective, pure "goodness" will not work.

Even the Yang, which appears sunny and cheerful on the outside and whose power comes from the brightest sunlight, has a terrifying "dark side".

Ying Li was considered to be a relatively "kind" person. He did not like killing and was tolerant towards all things. He never thought that the demons were nobler than all other things, so that people at that time thought that he had a heart of a bodhisattva and was a little indecisive.

……

The two finally reached an agreement and were able to set off for Oliveira City. This house was the private residence of an ordinary spy in "Seven Deadly Sins". Before Han Jin left, he transferred 30,000 magic coins into his salary card as compensation.

Ying Li also expressed his apology by giving him a herb that could help him practice and break through to the demon general realm.

On the way, Han Jin asked Ying Li why he fainted by the Mingyuan River, but Ying Li didn't know the whole story.

He only knew that it was related to Galantina, and that he would feel it when the other side of the bond encountered great joy or great sorrow, but it was too intense at the time, and it was impossible that his life was in danger. If it was, he would have felt differently.

Thinking about it carefully, Ying Li only remembered that the moment the feeling of grief came, his own magic power was also madly dissipating, his body became extremely weak, and he lost consciousness.

When passing by the Mingyuan River, Ying Li looked at the turbulent river and a strange feeling arose in his heart. He always felt that there was a mysterious force resisting him, unwilling to let him cross the river?

After arriving at the airport, Ying Li was still very concerned about this matter, so much so that he selectively ignored Han Jin's chattering at him on the way.

"...Hey! I've told you so much, why don't you give me any response?" Han Jin said angrily.

"Ah? What... You, say it again, I didn't hear you." Ying Li withdrew his thoughts and looked at Han Jin. He felt that if he continued to think about it, there would be no result, so he could only take it one step at a time.

"Hey!"

Han Jin patted his forehead helplessly, feeling like he was following a piece of wood. There are so many men in the world, why did he fall in love with this guy...

"Say it again, I'm sorry. It's mainly about the matter of the Dark Abyss River. I just can't figure it out."

Ying Li also felt deeply sorry. Although he did not like this wild and yandere woman, he had agreed to play the role of a couple for a year and he could not resist her too much.

"Hey……"

Han Jin sighed. "What I just said was about the Mingyuan River!"

"Ah? Really? I'm so sorry, could you please say it again?"

"Hmph~ It's not too late to talk about it after meeting Lin Yuan. She should know more than me. After all, she was the person in charge of this project back then."

Han Jin put his hands on his waist in anger, and said no more nice words. 9 Want me to be a parrot? Don't even think about it!

……

From Galantina's perspective, there are still six days before school starts. She tries to contact Ying Li through various channels, but even his capable men are powerless to do anything.

Thunder Demon King Gao Zhen has gone to the Mirage Forest for seclusion, Sea Demon King Mo Xiang is said to be giving birth to his second child soon, Fire Demon King Yangang seems to be running around to repair his body, exploring various ancient sites, and going into seclusion, and it's not known whether the other guys can be trusted.

On this day, Galantina summoned all the other demon kings at once through the Ghost Emperor's order. Although her biological mother, the Jiao Demon King Ajiao, had gone to heaven, she also issued a symbolic summons.

"Shhhhh..."

Nine portals emitting different magical powers opened around Galanthena. There was no mistake about the number. When she looked at a sky-blue portal, her heartbeat quickened.

There was no mistake. This familiar magical texture and the roar of dragons coming from afar...

——It’s the Demon King Jiao!

She actually responded to the summons of the Ghost Emperor. Could he see her? Galantina couldn't believe it. She stared at the door that no one had come out of yet. Her heart was already in her throat.

"Madam, are you in a daze?"

A helpless sigh was heard. It was from the Phantom Demon King Mirage.

Galantina's thoughts returned to reality from fantasy, and she saw that all the demon kings had gathered together, including three unfamiliar figures, but her mother Ajiao was missing.

"Hey... didn't you come..."

She sighed. That's right, after all, she wasn't in the demon world at all, and she might not even have registered her identity in the Netherworld, so how could she be summoned by the Netherworld's creatures?

One of them was a blond white man wearing a red dress, handsome, noble and elegant. She had seen him once before. She met him by chance when she went to the Red Palace.

This person is someone that even the Red Palace Master has to be in awe of. At that time, she was just a passer-by and did not ask anything. Only now did she realize that he was one of the demon kings under Ying Li.

This meeting was considered a formal acquaintance. The other party bowed gracefully to Galantina, took off his top hat and greeted her:

"Greetings, Madam. Former Blood Clan leader, "Blood Demon King" Cain Dracula greets Madam Galantina. May I ask if you would like to learn the essentials of the "Blood Refining and God-Slaying Skills" or if you would like to give instructions on matters related to Your Majesty?"

Galantina nodded at him, "We'll talk later."

She saw two more figures that she had never seen before. This meant that she had not seen them since her previous life.

"Nine Demon Kings of the Purple Flower Demon Clan", the nine demon kings have never been present at the same time.
