Chapter 1999 - 1996: He Has Already Chosen the Path to Certain Death

Although seeing two unparalleled beauties of the Heavenly Nether Sect willing to accompany Xu Wendong, many were envious of his luck with women from the bottom of their hearts.

But they were merely envious, not even daring to feel jealousy.

After all, ever since Xu Wendong split Wu Tianxiong with an axe at the selection conference, his fame spread within the Heavenly Nether Sect.

Even the second-ranked Wu Tianxiong was not his match, so who else would dare to provoke him?

However, standing silently beside, Duan Yuan was also surrounded by many disciples.

"Senior Brother Duan Yuan, let’s go together when the time comes." A disciple looked at Duan Yuan with full expectation, his eyes filled with eagerness.

"Yes, yes, our strength is not weak. If we act together, we will surely gain greatly in the Nether Ruins." Another disciple hurriedly agreed, his tone filled with confidence.

"If we encounter trouble, it’s good to have mutual support." Yet another disciple said urgently, his voice tinged with anxiety.

After entering the Nether Ruins, the dangers everyone faces are unimaginable.

Therefore, choosing a reliable teammate is critical.

Although the Heavenly Nether Sect sent thirty disciples into it this time, these thirty were not of one mind.

In the face of immense benefits, no one could ensure that those around them would not betray.

Thus, everyone was taking the opportunity to start looking for suitable teammates.

Duan Yuan frowned slightly; his tall stature was like a towering mountain.

He was used to acting alone and had no interest in teaming up with others.

This time entering the Nether Ruins, he still planned to fight alone.

Seeing Duan Yuan’s determined attitude, refusing their request to team up, everyone showed expressions of disappointment, feeling rather helpless.

They could only turn around and continue looking for other suitable candidates.

Zhou Ran was easygoing, always wearing a warm smile on his face.

As soon as he was spotted by other disciples, many surrounded him.

He enthusiastically communicated with everyone and quickly succeeded in forming a team.

Meanwhile, Xu Wendong naturally formed a team with Zhao Ying’er and Li Jiayin on their initiative.

"Hmph, what are you looking for my junior brother for?" Li Jiayin slightly frowned her willow brows, snorting coldly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes.

Since confirming her relationship with Xu Wendong, she was always wary of Zhao Ying’er.

She clearly remembered that Zhao Ying’er and Xu Wendong both came from Netherworld City, and now the Zhao Family and Lin Family had close ties, vaguely intending for Xu Wendong and Zhao Ying’er to marry.

Although Li Jiayin did not mind Xu Wendong having multiple wives, she was determined to become Xu Wendong’s main wife!

"Senior Sister, Lin Mo and I are childhood sweethearts; why can’t I look for him?" Zhao Ying’er’s mouth curled into a sly smile.

Nonetheless, an imperceptible trace of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes.

Over the past few days, Li Jiayin had been inseparable from Xu Wendong, giving her no chance to get close to him.

This made Zhao Ying’er quite unhappy, as she thought Xu Wendong should have been hers, yet was taken away by Li Jiayin.

"Childhood sweethearts, huh? As far as I know, your families didn’t get along well before," Li Jiayin crossed her arms, having already investigated the relationship between Zhao Ying’er and Xu Wendong.

Zhao Ying’er was unafraid, slightly raising her chin, directly retorting: "Not before, but now that my relationship with Lin Mo is good, of course, the family ties are also better."

Having said that, she deliberately moved forward, directly hooking Xu Wendong’s arm.

Her soft breasts pressed tightly against Xu Wendong’s arm, gently swaying with her movements, seemingly intentionally compressing.

The delicate, soft sensation instantly made Xu Wendong’s heart tremble.

If it weren’t for all the people around, he would’ve liked to teach this naughty Zhao Ying’er a lesson.

Seeing this, Li Jiayin blushed with anger, stomping her foot in both anger and helplessness.

She too wanted to hug Xu Wendong’s arm, but with so many people around, especially with her father Li Lingtian nearby, she hesitated with embarrassment.

At this moment, Li Lingtian also noticed this scene.

He sighed secretly, feeling very anxious: "Silly daughter, you should go up and hold him too! How can you shrink back in such a situation? Of course you can’t!"

Li Lingtian lamented, thinking how his daughter was so clueless?

She couldn’t let Zhao Ying’er take the lead for nothing.

Xu Wendong and Li Jiayin were already senior and junior brothers and lived on Sect Master Peak, so it would be great to confirm their relationship sooner.

Xu Wendong is a Fourth Grade Nether Talisman Master, and if he can stay in the Heavenly Nether Sect, he will be a great support for the sect in the future; he is even willing to pass on the Sect Master position to Xu Wendong.

While Li Jiayin was caught in an internal struggle and indecision, the Spirit Sword everyone was on had already reached near the Nether Ruins.

What unfolded before them was a series of rolling mountains.

The mountains seemed shrouded in a mysterious veil, with Yin Energy billowing and fog spreading.

In that thick fog, there was a carefully opened passage.

Li Lingtian carefully maneuvered the Spirit Sword into the passage.

A moment later, a grand, foggy mountain appeared before everyone.

The mountain soared into the clouds, the vegetation lush and verdant, appearing very majestic and grand.

Underneath that mountain was a quaint little town.

The town had already gathered quite a few people.

The three great forces of the Heavenly Nether Domain—the Heavenly Nether Sect, Divine Yin Hall, and Fire Lotus Saint Sect—all arrived here.

The Sect Masters and Hall Masters of the three forces each brought thirty disciples to settle in the town.

"The Heavenly Nether Sect people arrived," a disciple from the Divine Yin Hall pointed at the slowly descending Spirit Sword and shouted loudly.

"Heh, I wonder what level of disciples came from the Heavenly Nether Sect this time," another disciple from the Divine Yin Hall sneered, eyes full of disdain.

"Regardless, Duan Yuan, Wu Tianxiong, and Li Jiayin will surely come," a disciple from the Fire Lotus Saint Sect analyzed, his tone carrying a few assurances.

"Probably those three leading again," another Fire Lotus Saint Sect disciple agreed.

The disciples of the two major forces chattered, and many eyes soon focused on Xu Wendong.

He was surrounded by Zhao Ying’er and Li Jiayin, making him particularly eye-catching.

When the Spirit Sword finally landed, more people looked on curiously.

It was expected for Zhao Ying’er and Xu Wendong to act intimately, but the key was Li Jiayin standing to the side, seemingly showing a jealous expression.

This scene shocked everyone.

It must be known that Li Jiayin was recognized as the iceberg beauty by the three major forces.

Not only did many disciples in the Heavenly Nether Sect have a crush on her, but lots from the other two forces admired her as well.

They had never seen Li Jiayin take such an interest in a man.

In the Fire Lotus Saint Sect, a man clad in a Fire Cloud Robe looked on with a gloomy face, his eyes cold as he asked, "Who is that guy?"

His voice was low and authoritative, like thunder on a cold night.

The person beside him quickly stepped forward, answering him with respect: "Senior Brother, that person is called Lin Mo, a disciple of the Nether City Lin Family."

"He is currently the direct disciple of the Heavenly Nether Sect’s Sect Master, and also the junior brother of Li Jiayin."

"I heard that their relationship is quite good."

Upon hearing the introduction, the senior brother from the Fire Lotus Saint Sect’s gaze turned sharp as an eagle’s, and he snorted coldly, "Hmph! I thought my rival would be Wu Tianxiong, but it turns out to be him!"

"But this boy has already found his path to destruction."
