Lian Qian said in a low voice, “Just go and have a look!”
Ye Xuan stopped asking. He went directly to the entrance of the sixth floor.
“Come in!”
Lord Demon’s voice suddenly sounded.
Ye Xuan went in. The sixth floor was not spacious, and there were some mysterious black runes on the walls. These dense runes were connected end to end and were sending out a strange mysterious force.
Ye Xuan looked at a corner nearby. When he saw Lord Demon, he was dumbfounded.
Lord demon had a full head of white hair and his face was covered with wrinkles! Moreover, his breath was very weak at the moment. Ye Xuan could hardly feel it!
He was totally different from the man in the portrait Ye Xuan saw in the Demon Clan!
There was an ice coffin in front of Lord Demon!
A woman was lying in it.
Lord Demon said with a smile, “Ha-ha… Am I different from what you thought?”
Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Senior… Well…”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “Come here. Talk with me!”
Ye Xuan walked up to Lord Demon and looked at him with complicated feelings.
Lord Demon smiled, “Sorry, many times it’s not that I didn’t want to help you, but that I couldn’t!”
Ye Xuan asked, “Is it because of this tower?”
Lord Demon shook his head, “Not really!”
Ye Xuan looked at Lord Demon, who looked at the ice coffin in front of him and said in a soft tone, “Do you remember the story I told you about me and a woman?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
Lord Demon said with a smile, “She is that woman!”
Ye Xuan looked at the woman in the ice coffin. She was good-looking but not a great beauty.
Lord Demon said with a smile, “In those days, I was a poor student. My greatest wish was to pass the entrance examination. But my family was so poor that I couldn’t even afford food. How could I have enough money for school?”
Speaking of this, he looked at the ice coffin in front of him and said in a soft tone, “She and I grew up together… At that time, because of my poor family, her parents did not allow her to see me, but we weren’t deterred! To pay my tuition fee, she worked several jobs, and she never spent any money for herself in five years…”
At this point, Lord Demon seemed to think of something. Tears suddenly rushed out of his eyes, “That day, I went to the capital for the exam. I told her to wait for me and that I would marry her after I passed the exam. She smiled and didn’t speak.”
Lord Demon gently touched the ice coffin in front of him and said in a soft tone, “Three months later, I got the second place at the palace examination. When I returned, she was already dead!”
“Dead?”
Ye Xuan was stunned, “Why?”
Lord Demon laughed like a madman and said, “It was like the dramatic novel. After I left, her parents forced her to marry another man. She refused, but her parents didn’t give up. Then she committed suicide!”
Speaking of this, he looked at the ice coffin in front of him in agony, “It was my fault! What have I done to make her sacrifice for me like that? How could I deserve that?”
Ye Xuan kept silent in a complicated mood.
Lord Demon suddenly looked at him, “Do you know what is the most painful thing for a man? It’s that he meets the right person when he doesn’t have the ability to take care of her, but what’s more painful is that when he has the ability to take care of her, she’s already dead!”
Ye Xuan kept silent.
Although he didn’t go through such things, he could understand Lord Demon’s feelings.
How helpless a man would be if he met the right person when he couldn’t take care of her?
However, when he could, his beloved woman was already gone…
At this time, Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “She’s already dead. What’s the point of me being a powerful official? At that moment, my faith collapsed! In the end. I put down books and picked up swords. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to get some opportunities. After that, I wandered with her. Later, I heard that entering the Five Dimensions World can bring people back to life, so I looked for ways to enter the Five Dimensions World. In the end, I found this tower! However, I underestimated this tower’s strength.”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan finally understood why Lord Demon was imprisoned here!
He came to the Prison World Tower himself!
Ye Xuan asked, “Senior, you have such strength and shouldn’t be in such a situation!”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “I used some methods to invite people to gather her soul and spirit. With them, she has a chance of being resurrected! After I was imprisoned in this tower, I could barely resist its power, but she could not. Therefore, over the years, I have been protecting her with my own power, and then I consumed it too much and my life span is shorter and shorter!”
Saying that, he looked at Ye Xuan, “If I had met you earlier, the situation might have been different!”
Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “I remember that the woman in plain dress was in the tower back then. Why didn’t you ask her for help?”
Lord Demon shook his head and smiled, “You are so smart, but you still don’t understand, do you?”
Ye Xuan looked at Lord Demon, “What do you mean?”
Lord Demon said with a smile, “You think the woman in plain dress is very softhearted?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
Lord Demon shook his head, “She’s only softhearted to you! In her eyes, everyone except you is just an ant! She only cares about you!”
Then he looked at Ye Xuan and whispered, “She is so strong. Even I don’t know how strong she is! I don’t know why she cares about you so much, but there must be a reason. You must live well, for your sister, for your confidantes, and for her! Otherwise, if you die here, that woman will probably destroy everything in the Four Dimensions Universe.”
The woman in plain dress!
Speaking of this, Lord Demon was grim-faced!
In those days, he was a top-notch strong man. However, after meeting the woman in plain dress, he realized how weak he was.
Weak!
It was the first time that he felt that he was weak!
Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Senior, I will live well, but let’s put that aside now. Just follow me out of the tower! We…”
Lord Demon shook his head, “It’s too late.”
Ye Xuan looked at Lord Demon, who said in a soft tone, “I’m dying. Even if the woman in plain dress is here, she can’t help me. After all, even she can’t bring the dead back to life! Life and death are irreversible!”
Speaking of this, he looked at the ice coffin in front of him, “I wanted you to be here because I want you to do me a favor!”
Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Senior, please go head!”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “I can no longer protect her or revive her. You are the most likely to go to the Five Dimensions World and revive her.”
He said, looking at Ye Xuan, “Take her to the Five Dimensions World. If the Five Dimensions World can revive her, please do revive her. But don’t tell her about what happened to me.”
Ye Xuan was confused, “Why?”
Lord Demon said with a smile, “I only want her to live.”
Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Senior, even if I resurrect her, you are already…”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “When she was with me, she had a hard time. Those days were really hard! She had never been happy in her life. I want her to live a good life, a happy life!”
Ye Xuan bit back his words.
Lord Demon said with a smile, “I know what you are going to say. If she is reincarnated, she might have a good life, but she couldn’t be reincarnated anymore.”
Ye Xuan was confused, “Why?”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “Her obsession… is too strong. That was why I saved her soul and spirit at all costs.”
Then, he paused and then said, “You are the person who has the best chance of entering the Five Dimensions World. She will have a great chance of being resurrected. If you can bring her back to life, don’t tell her about what happened to me, because I am no longer the student she loved…”
Ye Xuan kept silent for a moment and then said, “If I go to the Five Dimensions World, I will try my best to fulfill your wish!”
Lord Demon laughed, “That would be enough.”
With that, he spread his palm, and a pitch-black key appeared in front of Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan wondered, “Senior, what is this?”
Lord Demon said in a soft tone, “Do you still remember the tomb I asked you to bring out from our Demon Clan?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Lord Demon looked at Ye Xuan, “My last inheritance is in it, and I have another thing for you!”
Speaking of this, he suddenly got up and walked to Ye Xuan, “Help me the last time!”
Ye Xuan said, “Please go ahead!”
Lord Demon looked at Ye Xuan and said, “After I die, refine my body into a demon corpse with the secret method in the tomb. My physical body has already been invincible. If it is refined into a demon corpse…”
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Senior…”
Lord Demon interrupted Ye Xuan, “Let me finish! If my physical body is refined into a demon corpse, it will be more powerful than a strong man in Dengfeng Realm, and it will surpass Unknown Realm. As long as you continue to cultivate according to the secret method, my demon corpse… No, it should be emperor corpse, the emperor among the corpses, the most powerful demon corpse in our Demon Clan. As long as you keep cultivating the secret method, my emperor corpse will keep cultivating and become stronger and stronger!”
As he said this, he suddenly pressed Ye Xuan’s shoulder with his right hand, “I’m not doing this entirely for you. If you bring her back to life someday, put my demon corpse secretly around her! When I’m alive, I couldn’t protect her. I hope I can do that after I die!”
When Ye Xuan was about to speak, Lord Demon shook his head, “I’m dying!”
With that, he glanced at the woman in the coffin and smiled, “It’s goodbye forever! If you are resurrected, you must live for yourself! You must do that!”
With that, he turned and looked at Ye Xuan, “I’ll do the last thing for you!”
His soul suddenly flew out of his physical body. The next moment, it left the Prison World Tower and rushed to the sky.
A scholar in white who was a soul body looked at the heavenly gate and smiled in front of the heavenly gate of the God Palace, “I’m Xue Hubei, I’m here to challenge you!”
