chapter-966
After Lillia told him about the situation of the four demons, Gu Tianchong fell into deep thought, and he felt that there was something he was unaware of happening in the Sky Cloud Realm, making him rethink his plan to speed up their attack on the realm. "Tell Vadin to send reinforcements immediately. He must send more demons here, or I will have Lord Hundun destroy your realm."
"Lord Vadin himself was furious with the deaths of the four of them, so he immediately prepared larger reinforcements to go to this realm." Gu Tianchong was satisfied with that, especially since he didn't want to delay taking over the realm any longer, but Lillia then told him again. "Unfortunately, the distance between the two realms is too far, and we don't have any good flying artifacts, so they won't arrive in this realm anytime soon, so it would be better if you buy some time and wait for them to arrive here. After all, we don't know the exact cause of their deaths, and they probably had other cultivators who might have strength equivalent to Tian Huang or higher on their side, so your troops would have died in vain if they went there."
"Yeah, you're right with that." Gu Tianchong then sent a voice transmission to the people from the Demon Sect, and he also informed the people from other sects and clans about the matter. However, some of them protested his decision to slow down their movements, and others decided to go to the Sky Cloud Realm to check out the situation themselves. "They want to check out that realm, but they won't be strong enough to face Tian Huang, so I want you to go there to help them."
"Sorry, I must refuse your order, Lord Gu." Lillia's answer made black lines appear on Gu Tianchong's forehead. "Lord Vadin only gave me one order to stay by your side, and I can't go against his order."
'Damn it! I shouldn't have only controlled Vadin back then; I should have controlled all the powerful demons of that realm as well, so they would obey only me.' Gu Tianchong then took off towards his troops' location, wary of the complex and confusing situation that could potentially lead to unexpected troop slaughter.Just as she wanted to leave that place, Lillia raised her eyebrows when she saw a crack open in front of her, and two black swords immediately appeared in both of her hands. Unfortunately, another crack appeared behind her, and a reddish-black item shot out before encircling her body, causing her two black swords to fall to the ground.
"What the hell with this thing?" Lillia wondered as she struggled to free herself, but the item suddenly turned into armor that confined her body and hands. Not only that, but it also sealed her cultivation and demon power, rendering her helpless. "Who's there!? Come out now!"
Zhou Yu was the first to walk out of the void as she stared at Lillia with a murderous look, and the other three people immediately followed her. Ao Yangyu also felt the urge to kill her directly, making the two old men shake their heads helplessly, but they immediately suppressed their killing intent.
Lillia was completely shocked by their appearance, particularly Ling Tian's presence. Despite her complete sealing of strength, her expertise as a demon cultivator allowed her to discern the disparities in their strengths. "So you were the one who killed my four subordinates?"
"Hahaha." Ling Tian laughed at Lillia's question. "Unfortunately, you are wrong about that, little demon. "I didn't kill those demons, and the woman in front of you killed them because you killed her two sons."
"Impossible!" Lillia screamed in disbelief, especially since she could clearly feel that Zhou Yu was the weakest among them, so she couldn't believe that she could kill all four of her subordinates at once.
"Why is it impossible?" Tian Huang inquired while shaking his head. "You should already be aware of our strength over yours, right? We helped her block their movements, so she could kill them easily.""I see." Lillia nodded in understanding before asking Zhou Yu. "Do you intend to kill me too? The winner will survive, and the loser will die, so I have no problem dying in your hands."
"Honestly, I want to torture you for the rest of your life in the void, and those void devouring beasts will definitely like your flesh very much." Lillia raised an eyebrow at Zhou Yu's answer, which indicated that she had no intention of killing her. "You're right, I don't want to kill you, but that doesn't mean that I will forget my grudge for the deaths of my two sons. Unfortunately, I had to obey my husband's forbiddance to kill you, as his wrath would be even more terrible than Vadin's.
"What do you mean by that?" Lilla asked with a confused look. "We just met for the first time today, and I have absolutely no information about you, let alone information about your husband."
"You don't know us, but we know quite a lot about you. One of my sisters will fall into a pit of misery if you die; therefore, my husband forbade me from killing you."
Seeing her getting more confused by her words, Zhou Yu decided to touch her forehead and share her memories of Helena, making Lillia's expression change slightly after she saw the images of her, and her tears fell unconsciously.
After seeing that, they exchanged glances for a moment, and Zhou Yu released a heavy sigh before speaking to Lillia again. "As expected, Vadin has already manipulated your memories, so you don't remember her. However, your expression told me that you still hold memories about her deep in your soul, and her images made you feel sad."
"Who... who is that woman? Why do I feel so close to her?" Lillia asked with a trembling voice, but she felt excruciating pain inside her head and heart as she tried to remember Helena. "Tell me! Who is that woman?"
"Her name is Helena, and she was the one who told my husband about you." Lillia's mouth murmured the name after hearing Zhou Yu's answer, but her expression became increasingly painful. "Years ago, Vadin wanted to absorb her because he wanted to get her black hell flames, but you and the others helped her escape from your realm, and she was stranded far away in the lower realm. There, she met my husband, or rather, our husband, and she's in another realm with him now."
"Helena... Helena..." Lillia kept calling out softly, but she still couldn't remember her, and her efforts to remember her only made the pain become stronger, causing her to fall to the ground and roll on the ground while letting out a scream of pain. "Argh!"
Ao Yangyu, who was previously so eager to kill Lillia, felt sorry for her. "Can you bring back her memories, Big Sis?"
"No." Zhou Yu answered by shaking her head. "At first, we thought that she was under the control of Gu Tianchong's Gu insect. However, her decision to disobey his orders to go to our realm made me think about something else, and my guess is correct that Vadin had manipulated her memories, especially after hearing about her loyalty to him. Moreover, we don't know how deeply he manipulated her memories, so it's really difficult for us to restore them."
Seeing Lillia continue to be in pain, Ling Tian decided to make a move and knocked her unconscious, making him sigh. "Sigh! Compared to the old demon lord, Vadin is truly abominable, and he became even crazier after falling under the control of Gu Tianchong and Hundun. Perhaps the only person who can help this woman regain her memories is Lu Yi, but I'm not sure if she'll be willing to help her, especially since she has an antipathy towards demons."
"Yes." Zhou Yu agreed with him because he knew Lu Yi's character well, but she still tried to contact her and convey the matter to her. "I have contacted her, but she has not given me an answer. If she is not willing to intervene in this matter, then the only way to return Lillia's memories is by going to the Nethorworld Realm, and we have to force Vadin to restore her memories. However, we might not be able to do that in the near future, especially since we were on our way to that mysterious tower."
"What's going on? Why are you guys so eager to go to that tower?" Ling Tian asked as he turned to Zhou Yu.
Hearing his question, Zhou Yu turned to Tian Huang, who immediately shook his head at her. "We are facing a serious problem now, so my husband must immediately go to the mysterious tower, and we can only solve our problem after he reaches the top floor."
"The top floor?" Ling Tian frowned at that. "Even Tang Chen and I couldn't pass the 90th floor, so I'm not sure that a young cultivator like Ling Yun can reach it."
"Hehe." Zhou Yu chuckled at that. "Old man, you and Tang Chen may not be able to do it, but Ling Yun has my big sister and me by his side, and we will help him reach the top floor to solve the mystery of the tower."
