Holding a child-bearing system, seducing all the handsome male cultivators in the wilderness

The two of them tacitly did not mention the matter of the covenant and the family tree again, because they both understood that some things could not be measured by simple status.

Bai Muyun's marriage involves the entire Phoenix clan, not to mention that it is a marriage into the wife's family. The Phoenix Emperor and even the entire Phoenix clan will not easily agree to this matter.

Therefore, in order to avoid the situation from developing to the point where Tu Shanyi broke with his tribe members, both of them chose to put aside this sensitive topic for the time being.

This is what is called the timing is not right. The difference in family background, concepts and beliefs between the two families is a gap that cannot be easily overcome.

Therefore, Li Wanji planned to develop her own family first, at least to the top of the Great Wilderness Pyramid, to have enough strength and influence, and then discuss the matter with the Phoenix Clan.

Li Wanji and Bai Muyun were sent to the prison together, hoping to negotiate with Nangong Jue and ask him to persuade Cang Yuan to surrender and end this protracted war.

Nangong Jue was imprisoned in the depths of the Wangchuan River. The prison was surrounded by a thick demonic aura, as if even time had stopped in this area.

The water of Wangchuan River was as black as ink, with a faint white mist floating on the surface of the river. The entire prison was shrouded in mystery and terror.

As soon as the two entered the prison, the demonic energy surged like a tide, trying to erode their will. Fortunately, they had all cultivated powerful mental methods, and their hearts were as firm as a rock, and they were unmoved.

They walked through the long corridor and finally arrived at the cell where Nangong Jue was.

The cell was surrounded by thick stone walls that seemed to block out all sounds from the outside world, leaving only the monotonous and heavy sound of breathing echoing.

Nangong Jue sat in a corner of the cell with his eyes closed, as if he was lost in deep meditation.

A faint black aura surrounded him, echoing with the demonic energy in the cell, forming an eerie harmony.

Seeing the two people coming, Nangong Jue slowly opened his eyes. Those eyes were deep and dark, as if they could swallow all the light.

"The presence of two distinguished guests really brings honor to my humble prison." He stood up slowly. Although he looked a little haggard, his domineering aura remained undiminished.

"Venerable Bai Feng, Patriarch Li, your names are well-known in the Great Wilderness."

Nangong Jue's eyes swept over the two of them, and finally stopped at Li Wanji, "Especially you, Patriarch Li, you actually changed the situation of the battle many times in such a short period of time. You are really as capable as a man."

Li Wanji nodded slightly: "Master Nangong, you are too kind. Wanji was just lucky enough to get some opportunities, so she can achieve something in the Great Wilderness."

Nangong Jue chuckled and changed the subject: "But I'm afraid you didn't come here today to chat? Do you want me to persuade the Lord of the Underworld to surrender and end this war?"

Bai Muyun took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Yes, Lord, since you also know the suffering that this war has brought to the Great Wilderness, why don't you choose a peaceful path and let the Great Wilderness return to peace?"

Nangong Jue shook his head: "Please don't flatter me, Lord Bai Feng. How can I, Nangong Jue, influence the decision of the Lord of the Underworld?"

Li Wanji said, "Your Excellency is too modest. You have a close relationship with the Lord of the Underworld. If you can persuade him, you will surely be able to change his mind."

"Besides, the Wangchuan Alliance has the upper hand in the current situation. If the Lord of the Underworld persists in his delusion, I am afraid that he will end up being reduced to ashes and never enter the reincarnation cycle."

Nangong Jue sneered: "Reduced to ashes? No reincarnation? You so-called righteous people always like to use these vague threats to scare us."

"From the moment he started the war, the Lord of the Underworld had already prepared for the worst. He pursued the ultimate power, a state that transcends the cycle of life and death, rather than worldly power and status."

He paused and looked at Li Wanji: "Patriarch Li, you can consider cooperating with our Nether Mountain. I believe that with your wisdom and strength, you will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Lord of the Underworld at the top of the Great Wilderness."

Li Wanji frowned slightly and flatly refused: "Lord Nangong, although Wanji is not talented, she also knows loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness. How can she abandon her family and devote herself to the devil's way?"

Nangong Jue was slightly stunned, and said with a wicked smile: "Patriarch Li, you are indeed an interesting person. However, do you think the path you are taking now can be called the right path?"

"In the Great Wilderness, the distinction between good and evil has always been that the strong are respected and the weak are the enemy. Your so-called righteous path is nothing more than self-proclaimed justice, but in fact it is just an alliance driven by interests."

This Nangong is definitely worthy of being Cangyuan's think tank. His words are sharp and profound, directly pointing to the power games and interest disputes in the Great Wilderness.

But he is now a prisoner, and everything he says and thinks is confusing right and wrong, and he deliberately does not want to make peace.

Seeing his attitude, Li Wanji and Bai Muyun knew that there would be no substantial progress this time, so they were too lazy to waste any more words with him.

The two looked at each other and prepared to turn around and leave. However, at this moment, Nangong Jue suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

The two stopped and looked at him in confusion.

Nangong Jue took a deep breath and said slowly: "Although I cannot meet your request, I can give you a piece of advice."

"In this war, it seems that the Forgotten Alliance has the upper hand, but the power in the hands of the Lord of the Underworld is far beyond your imagination."

"The reason why he has not launched a general attack yet is because he is waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that can overthrow the entire Great Wilderness."

"If you don't want the creatures of the Great Wilderness to be doomed, you need to prepare early."

Li Wanji and Bai Muyun looked at each other, and saw solemnity in each other's eyes. They knew that what Nangong Jue said was true, Cang Yuan was indeed an unfathomable figure, and his ambition and strength were far beyond their imagination.

"Muyun, where is Ximen Qing imprisoned? I want to see him."

Bai Muyun nodded slightly, turned around, and waved his finger lightly, and a secret door slowly opened in the stone wall of the cell.

Inside the secret door was a narrow and deep passage. The walls on both sides of the passage were inlaid with faint luminous stones, barely illuminating the way forward.

The passage was filled with a damp and cold atmosphere, which seemed to be able to penetrate into one's bones.

The two walked along the passage, one in front of the other, and soon they came to a larger cell.

This cell was different from Nangong Jue's cell. There were no thick stone walls around it. Instead, there was a circle of transparent barrier that emitted a faint blue light, making everything in the cell clearly visible.

Ximen Qing was sitting quietly on the stone platform in the middle of the cell, his eyes closed and brows furrowed, as if he was experiencing some unspeakable pain.

There were no restraints on his body, but the feeling of powerlessness emanating from deep within his heart made him unable to move at all.
