Doubts and suspicions grew layer upon layer, and Jun Wu Xie could not fathom things out clearly at that moment.
Wu Jiu was in an extremely good mood from having captured Jun Wu Xie and the others. After he went to see the imprisoned Qiao Chu and the others one after another, the then walked out from the dungeons and went off to seek an audience with the “Spirit Lord”.
However, Wu Jiu’s front foot had just stepped out from the dungeons when a dark shadow slipped fleetingly into the place. Before the two guards standing at both sides of the entrance even realized what was happening, they already found themselves completely engulfed by a black mist, and they fell to the ground unconscious.
“Has Little Xie even missed me at all?”
The voice that was tinged with smiles suddenly floated over from outside the dungeon. Jun Wu Xie who had her eyes closed in rest opened them up suddenly, as a delighted sparkle of surprise she did not even realize herself rising up within!
She saw a tall slender figure standing silently outside the dungeon, where the dim firelight shone upon that extraordinarily handsome countenance, and fell right into Jun Wu Xie’s eyes.
“You’re just too much. Didn’t we agree that I was to wait for you at home? How could you have come running to such a place instead? People who break their promises should be punished you know?” The corners of Jun Wu Yao’s lips had a lazy smile hanging from them as he stood leaning against the outside the jail cell, his devilish purple eyes filled with thick smiles.
“Wu Yao.” Jun Wu Xie looked at Jun Wu Yao, her eyes then rising with a smile.
Jun Wu Yao then lightly touched the metal bars of the cage in front of him two times, and the three finger thick metal bars immediately broke right off!
Striding with a graceful gait, Jun Wu Yao walked into the jail cell and came to crouch down right in front of Jun Wu Xie, where he then held Jun Wu Xie’s hands so naturally. Seeing the Soul Binding Chains around her wrists, his eyes flashed with an almost imperceptible glint of murder.
“These things are really….. such a huge eyesore.”Jun Wu Yao’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the palm holding Jun Wu Xie’s small hand suddenly lifted up a finger, to lightly draw a line over the Soul Binding Chain…..
With a loud thunk, the Soul Binding Chain shackled around Jun Wu Xie’s wrist actually snapped apart, and fell right onto the floor.
In the instant that the Soul Binding Chain came off, Jun Wu Xie could feel her arm recovering a bit of her power of the spirit.
Jun Wu Yao raised his hand and passed it over Jun Wu Xie’s four limbs fleetingly, and all the Soul Binding Chains were broken open in an instant.
Having regained freedom, Jun Wu Xie immediately stood up.
Jun Wu Yao then stood up with her.
“For breaking a promise, you are going to punish me?” Jun Wu Xie asked as she looked thoughtfully at Jun Wu Yao. She had not forgotten what Jun Wu Yao had said earlier.
Jun Wu Yao laughed lightly and lowered his head as he lifted up the wisps of hair that had fallen over the side of Jun Wu Xie’s face to his nose to take a whiff, his enchanting eyes slightly narrowed.

“That’s right. Why not….. you cajole and wheedle a little for me to spare you?” Jun Wu Yao said with an absolutely roguish augh.
Jun Wu Xie glanced up at him and then said indifferently: “No need.”
Her voice had just fallen when her arm hooked around Jun Wu Yao’s neck and pulled his head down hard, as she pushed herself up on her toes to plant a great kiss onto his lips.
“…..”
Against Jun Wu Xie’s brash and unrestrained self that appeared out of the blue from time to time, Jun Wu Yao gradually went from flabbergasted shock to it gradually becoming diminished surprise….. If Ye Mei and his gang were here to see Jun Wu Yao in that state, they would have been speechless.
“Is that enough?” Jun Wu Xie nonchalantly pulled away from Jun Wu Yao slightly, the bright sparkling eyes reflecting his face in them.
Which was still slightly tinged with pink…..
“Cough…..” A cough suddenly sounded.
Jun Wu Xie turned to the source of that sound, and happened to see the Spirit Lord directly opposite her cell looking at her and Jun Wu Yao with an expression showing great hesitation to speak.
Those eyes seemed to be protesting their “lovey-doveyness”.
“When you said that there will not be a problem, was it because you were certain that someone would come rescue you?” The Spirit Lord’s gaze was conflicted as he looked at Jun Wu Xie and Jun Wu Yao. Because Jun Wu Yao had swooped in too fast and the light inside the dungeon was too dim, the Spirit Lord had completely been unable to see what Jun Wu Yao looked like at all, merely able to see that a tall man was standing beside Jun Wu Xie.
Because his power of the spirit was sealed by the Soul Binding Chains, the Spirit Lord was not even able to sense the man aura at all.
But he could be certain of one point.
The man who had suddenly appeared in here was definitely not weak!
The intricate Soul Binding Chains had not been able to withstand his power in the slightest and the Spirit Lord was not even certain he could accomplish that when he was at his peak.
“Mm.” Jun Wu Xie had no intention of hiding anything and she nodded her head.
The Spirit Lord’s eyes then had a glint of surprise rise up in them.
Jun Wu Xie turned her head and tugged at a corner of Jun Wu Yao’s sleeve.
“He…..”
“I know, the Spirit Lord.” Jun Wu Yao did not wait for Jun Wu Xie to speak and just went ahead to reveal the Spirit Lord’s identity.
Thinking about it quickly, as Jun Wu Yao had at least fought the Spirit Lord before, Jun Wu Xie then thought it was quite normal that he was able to recognize the Spirit Lord.
But the Spirit Lord was rather surprised that his identity had been recognized so readily. But with the circumstances he was in, there wasn’t much time for him to think too much about that.
“Qiao Chu and the others were also captured. Wu Jiu and that imposter are hiding insidious intentions…..” Jun Wu Xie briefly told Jun Wu Yao everything she had heard from the Spirit Lord about sacrificing the Three Realms in blood, and Jun Wu Yao quietly listened to everything she had to say without showing the slightest surprise.
“That is indeed the style of the Upper Realm. Let’s not talk about these things here. Let’s get the lot of you out of here first.” Jun Wu Yao said with a laugh, as if the earth shattering plot he just heard was nothing significant at all.
Jun Wu Xie nodded in agreement. If they were going to rescue people, they would naturally not abandon the Spirit Lord. She tugged at Jun Wu Yao’s sleeve and Jun Wu Yao immediately understood what she meant. He walked out from the cell and went right before the Spirit Lord’s cell door.
The Spirit Lord’s face was still filled with joy as he had not expected that Jun Wu Xie would really have such a trump card hidden up her sleeve. Having been trapped in this dark dungeon for so long without having ever seen the light of day, he had already lost all hope. He had never thought that his fate would actually be rewritten right from this moment on.
However, before the Spirit Lord’s joy had subsided, in the instant when that tall figure gradually came to be revealed under the sparse amount of light, the smile at the edges of the Spirit Lord’s lips congealed at that very moment and his eyes bulged as he stared at Jun Wu Yao who was just an arm’s length away from him, his face twisting up in disbelieving incredulity!

“Dark….. Dark…..” The Spirit Lord was staring at that devilishly handsome countenance. Even if that face had been turned to ashes, he would still be
able to recognize it!
That was obviously the Dark Emperor! !
Jun Wu Yao raised up his brow slightly as he looked at the Spirit Lord who was overcome with shock and he went on to say teasingly: “Having not seen you for so many years, I would not have thought that you would turn into such a shortie”
The Spirit Lord’s face flushed a deep red immediately and it was not known whether it was from rage or humiliation.
[What kind of a joke was that?]
[Jun Wu Xie’s trump card is actually the Dark Emperor?]
“You are not dead afterall.” The Spirit Lord was finally able to regain his composure after a long while and he said thoughtfully as he stared at that countenance that had not changed for a thousand years.
Jun Wu Yao just laughed but did not respond.
The steel bars could not stand against Jun Wu Yao at all and the thick Soul Binding Chains immediately broke apart under a casual touch of Jun Wu Yao’s finger.
Having been imprisoned for a hundred years, the Spirit Lord was finally freed from his bonds and the suppressed power once again returned to his entire body. The feeling made him want to roar out in exhilaration and never in his dreams had the Spirit Lord ever thought that the one to break him free from his predicament would turn out to be Jun Wu Yao!
“I still need to….. thank you.” The Spirit Lord expressed his gratitude to Jun Wu Yao a little bashfully.
The corners of Jun Wu Yao’s mouth curled up into a devilish smile that just made the Spirit Lord’s skin crawl.
“That little tyke is really the Spirit Lord?” The little black cat that had followed Jun Wu Yao here leapt up onto Jun Wu Xie’s shoulder. Back when Jun Wu Xie and her companions had been captured, only the little black cat had not appeared, but had remained hidden within the Flame Dragon’s cave. Only after the imposter had left, it had then rushed back to Jun Wu Xie’s house in the shortest time possible and extended an invitation for this great demon lord to come.
“Mm.” Jun Wu Xie nodded her head.
The little black cat’s gaze that was looking at the Spirit Lord then turned thought provoking.
But Jun Wu Xie did not have the leisure to discuss the Spirit Lord’s “miniature” stature further with the little black cat but to immediately drag Jun Wu Yao to go rescue Qiao Chu and the others.
…..
In the Spirit Palace’s grand hall, Wu Jiu stood on the lower segment as he looked up at the imposter seated up upon the throne, a strange smile upon his face.
“The Spiritual Bear is now in our hands. Now, the fourth Serene Spirit Tower’s construction must continue immediately. There must be no further delay.” The imitation “Spirit Lord” said as he stared gravely at Wu Jiu from his seat high above.
Wu Jiu then replied with a smile: “Rest assured my Lord, the matter will be resolved very soon. It won’t only be about completing the fourth Serene Spirit Tower. We have not only captured he Spiritual Bear this time, but we’ve also gotten Flame Dragon, Poison Ivy, and Jun Wu Xie together with her companions. With that, the fourth Serene Spirit Tower’s Spirit Fire will be able to grow very quickly and stabilizing the totems is now well within sight.”
The imposter nodded his head slightly, seemingly highly satisfied with the current situation.
“We have already spent so much time in the Spirit World. In order to come into the Spirit World, the price you and I have paid should be very clear to you. If we do not get everything completed as soon as possible, both of us will definitely find it hard to answer or it in future.” The imposter continued to say.
Wu Jiu replied: “Now that everything is within our grasp, there will be not be anymore accidents cropping up. Throughout the entire Spirit World, who could possibly be a match for my Lord? But there is one matter that I have yet to be able to report to my Lord.
“Oh? What is it?” The imposter asked.
“Among the human spirits that my Lord managed to capture, the only young female among them, which would be Jun Wu Xie, she carries the Face of Sylvan on her.” Wu Jiu said with his eyes narrowed. How could he be able to forget the scene where Jun Wu Xie had used the Face of Sylvan to defeat him?
If not for the great might of the Face of Sylvan, how could he possibly have been defeated?

“Face of Sylvan? Are you certain?” Hearing the three words, Face of Sylvan, the imposter’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“I could not have been mistaken. For something that could morph and change into so many forms, besides the Face of Sylvan, no other magical artifact is like that.” Wu Jiu said with clear certainty.
The imposter then creased up his brows.
“Hasn’t the Face of Sylvan already been taken away by that person? There was a rumour in the Middle Realm before that after that person was captured, his subordinates had mistakenly thought that he had fallen in battle and buried all his treasures into his tomb. Why would….. it suddenly show up on a human spirit?”
“That’s right, I had thought that it was rather strange as well, but now that Jun Wu Xie has already been caught by us, this matter about the Face of Sylvan will be cleared up sooner or later.” Wu Jiu went on to say. “That person had taken away quite a number of the Upper Realm’s magical artifacts and the Supreme Lord was greatly infuriated by that. Unfortunately the whereabouts of all those magical artifacts are still not known and if we are able to establish a breaking lead through the Face of Sylvan, we might just be able to bring back an extra gift to the Supreme Lord.”
“If that is true, that would naturally be for the best.” The imposter then replied.
Just as the two of them were secretly scheming up their plot, a cold clear voice suddenly came floating into the grand hall!
“What will be for the best? Why not tell me about it as well?”
In almost the same instant, Wu Jiu snapped his head up and looked towards the source of the voice, to see a figure that had appeared at the doors into the grand hall suddenly!
It was a petite little figure, but as it fell into Wu Jiu’s eyes, it kicked up a Heaven stirring wave inside him!
“Jun Wu Xie? How did you come to be here! ?” Wu Jiu stared with incredulous disbelief at Jun Wu Xie who had appeared at the doors of the grand hall, unable to believe what he was seeing.
A mere half an hour ago, he had just spoken to Jun Wu Xie down in the dungeons and he clearly remembered that Jun Wu Xie’s limbs had been securely shackled up with Soul Binding Chains. With her power of the spirit sealed, how could she possibly have escaped out from the dungeons? And how did she come to appear here?
Jun Wu Xie walked into the grand hall calm and composed, her gaze sweeping over Wu Jiu and the fake Spirit Lord.
“If my memory serves me correctly, didn’t you “invite” me to come?”
The fake Spirit Lord narrowed his eyes and stared calmly at Jun Wu Xie, as a glint of malice flashed within his eyes.
“I have underestimated you. I had not thought that you would be capable of shaking off the binding restraints of the Soul Binding Chains and escaping from the dungeons. But just as well, as I have a few things I want to ask you about.” The fake Spirit Lord said as he looked at Jun Wu Xie nonchalantly. From his point of view, Jun Wu Xie was just so insignificantly small, and also so foolish. It did not matter how she had managed to escape out from the dungeon, but even when she knew that the difference between their powers were so far apart, she had not gone into hiding nor try to run away, instead sending herself to her own doom, which was just so laughable.
Even though she had escaped, the fake Spirit Lord was certain that he would be able to throw her back into captivity once again
“Oh? What could it be about?” There wasn’t the slightest bit of nervousness on Jun Wu Xie’s face.
“You have the Face of Selvan on you?” The fake Spirit Lord asked.
&
nbsp; Jun Wu Xie was silent for a moment before she suddenly nodded her head.
“That’s right. I hold the Face of Selvan.”
“Where did you get the Face of Selvan from? If you come clean without any subterfuge, I might make things a little easier for you, or I might just choose to allow you to leave. However you are going to choose, depends entirely on you.” The fake Spirit Lord was employing the stick and carrot, seeking to coax out information about the Face of Selvan from Jun Wu Xie’s mouth.
Jun Wu Xie was no fool, and she could naturally see the interest the fake Spirit Lord was showing towards the Face of Selvan.
But…..
Volume 22
Chapter 2119: The Ruler of Face Slaps Returns (2)
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Jun Wu Xie was not intending to tell them about the origins of the Face of Selvan.
“Oh? What if I refuse to tell you?” Jun Wu Xie said rather fearlessly.
The fake Spirit Lord narrowed his eyes, and a sneer hung over the ends of his mouth.
“You really are not afraid of death are you? You’re just a tiny little human spirit and you dare to speak to me like this. Are you aware that the entire Spirit World is created by me? And you here, are just a mere ant in my hand whom I can kill whenever I want. How are you even able to stop me at all? I am giving you a chance here and you do not care for it at all. Are you tired of living?”
“This Spirit World is created by you?” Jun Wu Xie raised an eyebrow slightly, and the eyes looking at the fake Spirit Lord seemed as if they was staring at a joke.
The fake Spirit Lord hated to see those eyes very much. He just could not understand why a tiny insignificant human spirit that he could easily crush to death would come challenge his might with complete disregard for her own life.
“If not me, could it then possibly be you?”
Jun Wu Xie laughed lightly, but but continued to look at the fake Spirit Lord with those eyes filled with ridicule.
