Chapter 1343 - 1343 Glory At Peak, Misery After Suffering
1343 Glory At Peak, Misery After Suffering
“Look at Senior Kunlun. He was also killed, but why didn’t he become a demon?” Yu Huang hugged Sheng Xiao and patted his back as she comforted him gently, “Believe me, Yu Aofeng won’t become a demon.” How could a peerless powerhouse who was willing to give up the chance to become a Divine Master become a demon?
Sheng Xiao was relieved.
“Yes, I believe him.” Just like how he believed in himself.

The next day, at dawn, Mo Xiao brought Sheng Xiao to the Soul Formation Mountain in the south.
When Ye Qingyang, Zhan Wuya, and Xiao Shu found Yu Huang’s residence, they saw Yu Huang eating breakfast alone in the dining room but didn’t see Sheng Xiao, so they asked, “Where’s Sheng Xiao? We’re about to set off. Why isn’t he around?”
Before she got pregnant, Yu Huang was a foodie who ate as much as an ox. After she got pregnant, she ate even more.
As she ate her nutritious meal, she said without looking up, “Brother Xiao has something to do. We’ll set off tonight.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Wuya and Ye Qingyang nodded and returned to their respective residences. Xiao Shu sat down on the empty chair opposite Yu Huang and took the initiative to scoop a bowl of porridge cooked with spirit beans. As he ate, he said, “He went to the Soul Formation Mountain?”
Yu Huang knew that she couldn’t hide it from Xiao Shu.
“Yes, he’s going to take a look.”
Nodding, Xiao Shu said, “That’s a good idea.”
Seeing Yu Huang’s calm expression, Xiao Shu said, “Actually, I’ve also gone to the Soul Formation Mountain to take a look.” Knowing that Yu Aofeng was suppressed at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain, how could Xiao Shu not take a look?
After Yu Huang placed the spoon in her bowl and wiped the porridge off her lips with a napkin, she lowered her eyes and nodded at Xiao Shu as she said, “Tell me about the Soul Formation Mountain.”
Xiao Shu rubbed his nose with a hesitant expression as he stammered, “The Soul Formation Mountain has already been developed into a tourist area.”
“Tourist area?” Yu Huang felt dismayed. “That’s Yu Aofeng’s prison. How did it become a tourist area?”
Seeing that Yu Huang was in a rage, Xiao Shu hurriedly reminded her, “Yu Huang, you’re pregnant now. Don’t be angry, or you’ll hurt the babies.”
“How can it be so easy to hurt the babies?” Since these two children dared to choose her as their mother, they were not weak children.
Yu Huang took two sips of the lotus seed soup in a row to calm herself down. Then, she said, “No matter what, he’s still the crown prince of the Dragon Race. How dare those people treat him like that?!” How could they develop the place where Yu Aofeng was suppressed into a tourist area?
Xiao Shu told Yu Huang, “The Black Qing Sky Dragon Clan was once the ancient overlord of the demon beast continent. How powerful they were when they were popular was naturally how miserable they were after they went extinct. You know this principle.”
Yu Huang naturally understood.
However, she felt sad for Yu Aofeng.
Not only was such a proud person buried in the Soul Formation Mountain and subjected to lightning strikes day and night, but he was also treated as a tourist attraction for people to admire. How could Yu Huang not be angry about this?
“The terrain of the Soul Formation Mountain is steep. In order to make it easier for tourists to go up and down the mountain, the tourism company even built a few high-alt.i.tude cableways there. Tourists only need to spend 50 spirit stones to go back and forth. Every noon and midnight, lightning will descend from the sky for 15 minutes. During this period, everyone in the mountain range can hear a m.u.f.fled and painful dragon roar. Those tourists fight to find the best observation spot so that they can personally see the magnificent appearance of the Soul Formation Mountain when the lightning struck it and see the ancient overlord being tortured at a close distance…”
With that, Xiao Shu’s eyes welled up with tears.
He choked on his porridge and found it unpalatable. “Yu Huang, you made the right choice by not following him there.” If Yu Huang saw that scene, she would probably go crazy with anger.
“No wonder.” No wonder Sheng Xiao didn’t allow her to go with him. No wonder Sheng Xiao wasn’t in a hurry to go to the Soul Formation Mountain.
When he ascended from the Holy Spirit Continent to the Great World, Sheng Xiao went to the Demon Beast Continent first, so he probably knew Yu Aofeng’s current situation.
No one would be more heartbroken than Sheng Xiao.
After Yu Huang finished the last few mouthfuls of lotus seed soup in her bowl, she put down the bowl and stood up. After she picked up the coat draped over the chair, she put it on before striding out.
Seeing that she was about to go out, Xiao Shu stood up and chased after her. “Where are you going? Are you going to the Fox Immortal City? I’ll drive you there!”
“I’m going to the Soul Formation Mountain.”
Xiao Shu was shocked. “Why are you going to the Soul Formation Mountain?! Are you crazy?!”
“To cut the ropeway!”
The morning sun shone on the sunny Fox Immortal Mountain Range, but there was a cold expression on Yu Huang’s face.
Seeing that Yu Huang was going to cause trouble, Xiao Shu stroked his red hair in frustration. In the end, he chased after her. “Wait for me!”
“Wait for you for what? To persuade me to be magnanimous and let it go?” Yu Huang smiled mockingly.
After Xiao Shu grabbed Yu Huang’s arm, he lowered his head to look at her angry face and said, “I’ll accompany you. If you want to cut the ropeway, I’ll carry a knife for you. If you want to destroy the tourism company, I’ll help you throw the explosives. Is that okay?”
The killing intent in Yu Huang’s eyes was instantly replaced by mirth. “Alright!”
Good friends naturally had to share trouble and enjoy blessings together.

Even though he used teleportation, it still took Sheng Xiao half an hour to reach the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Mo Xiao had been waiting for a long time already.
Mo Xiao, who was at the Prime Emperor Realm, could travel across the entire Demon Beast Continent in a few minutes. Sheng Xiao, who was at the Grand Master Realm, couldn’t do it for the time being.
“Look.” Mo Xiao looked at the tourist area at the foot of the mountain as he said to Sheng Xiao, “Every day, before dawn, cultivators and tourists from all over the world will gather here to find the best place to admire the scenery and hear the screams of the last crown prince of the Dragon Race.”
“…I know.” Sheng Xiao came to Mo Xiao’s side and looked at the tourists who were queuing up. There was no warmth in his eyes as he said, “When I ascended, I was teleported to the Ascension Town of the Demon Beast Continent. There, I heard that the Soul Formation Mountain became a tourist area.”
He stared at the dozen or so high-alt.i.tude cableways on the high mountains as he said self-deprecatingly, “Who would dare to believe that the Dragon Race’s crown prince, who was once worshiped by tens of thousands of demons, became a tourist attraction after being suppressed?” Sheng Xiao thought to himself, “Fortunately, Yu Huang didn’t come. If she did, she would be heartbroken.”
Mo Xiao said, “In the beginning, only some powerful cultivators came to see the Dragon Race’s crown prince being whipped by the lightning. About 300 years ago, a disciple of the Magic Flood Dragon Clan discovered a business opportunity and decided to turn the Soul Formation Mountain into a tourist attraction. For only 50 spirit stones, tourists can take the high-alt.i.tude cableway to the best scenic spot near the Soul Formation Mountain and witness the tragic appearance of the Dragon Race’s crown prince being whipped by the lightning.”
