The Eight Empresses Betrayed Me, Only to Deeply Regret It After Being Reborn-Chapter 38: She likes me?
"Devil!"
He’s a devil!
He’s a devil that even the Buddha cannot suppress, a devil that cannot be transcended!
Du Neng, covered in blood, his once pristine monk robe now stained with dirt, stumbled and fell to the ground.
A monk at the Breaking Infant realm actually fell due to panic.
This was truly unthinkable.
Du Neng fled, madly scrambling, and he didn’t even remember the Karma Bell that the Buddhist Child had given him. In his subconscious, he knew that even the Buddhist Child would be doomed if they came face to face with such a devil.
Lu Ye killed the last person and watched Du Neng flee. For a moment, he was speechless.
Still at the Breaking Infant realm, and with such poor mental fortitude.
He had killed a lot this time, so it felt like he was slipping into the killing state from his previous life. In his previous life, Lu Ye didn’t even know how many powerful beings he had killed.
As he looked over, he happened to lock eyes with Du Neng.
It was like Du Neng was staring at the Lu Ye from his previous life, and that single gaze was enough to cause Du Neng to collapse.
Lu Ye didn’t pursue him. He couldn’t be bothered.
From now on, if Du Neng survives, there should be one more mad monk in this world.
The smell of blood was slightly pungent.
It affected his mood.
Lu Ye thought for a moment, then extended his hand. A stream of bodies flew toward him, including the ones that had died earlier, all piling up together.
He set them on fire, reducing them to ashes, leaving nothing but bone fragments.
He gently waved his sleeve, a gust of wind blew through.
The world felt fresh.
Lu Ye was in a great mood as he returned to the Tianling Pool to continue his cultivation.
There were no treasures beneath Tianling Pool, unlike the Pure Water Pool. The formation of Tianling Pool was related to the terrain, and if there were no pool here, but just land, it was highly likely that a spiritual stone mine would form over time.
And the scale of that spiritual stone mine would likely be quite large.
Time passed slowly.
Another five days.
Lu Ye’s cultivation had reached the seventh level of Breaking Infant. His cultivation speed was incredibly fast—faster than usual and extremely stable.
His true essence was so abundant it far surpassed the ninth level of Breaking Infant.
On the other side.
Because the space above the third level of the Tianjiao Ancient Battlefield hadn't opened, the ruins and treasures on the lower three levels had already been thoroughly looted.
So, battles became more frequent.
With no more treasures, they might as well fight to pass the time.
Fighting against the world’s best talents was the only way to truly understand oneself.
But the humans were too strong.
Li Wubai of the Taishang Sword Sect single-handedly slaughtered ninety demons and left without a scratch.
Feng Longxiang of the Jie Sect smashed the third ghost prince of the Ghost Clan with a single punch.
The Saintess of the Yin-Yang Law Sect, Luo Yuan, fought the Little Dragon King of the Demon Clan without losing an inch.
Each one more ferocious than the last.
When Lu Ye first crossed into this world, to be honest, he had felt somewhat out of place.
In the novels he had read, humans were weak, bullied by a hundred clans, but in this world, humans were terrifyingly strong, and each clan was being brutally beaten.
Once the clans were defeated, they liked to form alliances.
In fact, forming alliances was almost second nature to them.
The reason there’s the term “demons and monsters” is because these beings like to band together and jointly deal with humans.
Once they form an alliance, it’s lively.
Humans, on the other hand, were under immense pressure.
In the previous life, Lu Ye had been the leader on the human side, constantly battling these demons and monsters, killing many of their top talents.
This time, Lu Ye was focused solely on cultivation, as he had already passed the stage where he needed to rely on fighting to improve.
Without Lu Ye, Yue Hongling took on the responsibility he had once carried, leading the charge against the demons and monsters.
Her combat power was terrifying, stunning countless people.
As the battles raged on, Yue Hongling’s reputation grew, becoming known far and wide.
The war was in full swing.
Every day, people were dying.
In addition to Yue Hongling gaining fame, there was another solitary swordsman who became well-known, and that was Chu Ling.
Chu Ling, with a sword in hand, was unstoppable, just like Yue Hongling.
Shangguan Huanling was gathering her strength, not yet famous, but quietly building up her power.
Lu Ye was cultivating with all his might. She had seen him from afar once and had only become more certain of the correctness of her decision to remain in seclusion.
No matter how intense the battles were now, they couldn’t compare to leaving a mark on the Ancient Heavenly Talents List. That was truly a world-shocking act.
Yue Hongling, aside from fighting the demons and monsters, had been paying attention to Feng Wuxie.
Feng Wuxie’s progress was also very evident. The original Feng Wuxie had only been at the Yuan Dan realm, relying on the Phoenix bloodline within him to fight against the Breaking Infant realm.
Now, he had officially broken through to the Breaking Infant realm.

However, he knew Yue Hongling’s power, so he never joined the demon’s ranks, just kept a low profile.
And he wasn’t a fool. Yue Hongling’s attention toward him was clearly higher, especially after an accidental encounter when Feng Wuxie realized that Yue Hongling had been watching him from afar.
At that moment, Feng Wuxie thought, "What is going on?"
His mind was full of questions.
What’s happening?
Even ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) though he hadn’t joined the demon ranks to fight against humanity, he had heard of Yue Hongling’s great name more than once or twice.
Now, she was watching him from a distance—what did that mean?
After discovering it once, Feng Wuxie started paying attention.
He saw it for the second time.
The third time.
The fourth time...
If the first time was a coincidence, then Yue Hongling secretly observing him repeatedly could not possibly be a coincidence.
Why? Why?
Feng Wuxie was baffled.
Could it be...?
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Feng Wuxie’s mind. He thought of an incredible, but plausible possibility.
Could it be that Yue Hongling... had developed feelings for him?
No way! No way!
Absolutely impossible!
Yue Hongling’s fame was growing, and she had fought against all kinds of powerful beings—demons, monsters, ghosts, gods—never losing once. She had even killed many talented individuals.
Such an extraordinary woman, having met him only a few times, how could she possibly like him?
Besides, women are attracted to strength, and he wasn’t strong! At least, not when compared to Yue Hongling—he wasn’t strong at all.
Soon, Feng Wuxie encountered a crisis.
"A demon!"
Just as Feng Wuxie was about to enter a stone cave, which was mysterious and potentially held treasures, a person suddenly appeared from inside the cave.
They faced each other. The person was dressed in white, and suddenly their eyes turned golden.
"Huh? A Phoenix bloodline?" The person’s face lit up with joy.
"I was just thinking about finding a mount, and unexpectedly, just as I had that thought, a precious mount has appeared right in front of me. The Lord of Light is truly blessing me!"
"Divine race!"
Feng Wuxie’s face changed instantly as he rapidly retreated.
"Hahaha, as the monks would say, meeting is fate. You might as well not run!"
Cao Hong suddenly spread a pair of pure white wings from his back and flew toward Feng Wuxie with incredible speed.
The aura of the third layer of Breaking Infant erupted.
Feng Wuxie’s face changed drastically, and he transformed into his true form. A creature resembling both a bird and a phoenix, with golden-red feathers, appeared, and the chase began.
Cao Hong’s speed was astonishing. He released a series of white threads that formed a large net, trapping Feng Wuxie.
Feng Wuxie poured all his energy into fighting back, using flames to try and burn the net.
"Glory of Light!"
"Boom!"
A white lightning bolt struck from the sky, and the world was bathed in blinding white light.
Feng Wuxie flapped his wings, breaking the lightning, but his entire body still fell into paralysis.
