Demon Gate Player

Chapter 33: Netherworld River Mansion

Thirty thousand feet underground.

A vast river, emitting a faint blue cold light, flows endlessly.

In the river, ghosts rise and fall, carried by the waves, rushing towards the distance.

Above the river is a dense and profound darkness, with rugged rocks on both sides, slippery cliffs, countless caves, underground chambers, and hidden caves scattered everywhere. The chilling wind howls, constantly echoing in the ears.

A white bone shuttle emerges from the darkness.

The shuttle circles in the air and flies towards the upstream of the Nine Netherworld River.

Before long, a huge rock protrudes into the river from the shore ahead. On top of the rock is a flat open space, where a man and a woman stand.

The man is tall and sturdy, with an extraordinary temperament. He conceals a hint of demonic intent, but also reveals a trace of cold and murderous aura.

The woman is dressed in a gorgeous long dress, with a beautiful and dignified appearance, fair and delicate skin, and a noble and elegant temperament. At first glance, she leaves a deep impression.

Perfect.

She is almost a perfect woman.

When Xiong Ying, who is also a beauty, sees Gao Yan, these two words are the only ones that come to her mind.

The white bone shuttle descends from the sky and the figure of Xiong Ying appears.

She looks at Pang Yue with a complex expression.

Memories flood in, from the time they both joined the White Bone Demon Sect to today, more than fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

She never expected that her senior brother, whom she had admired and entrusted her heart and soul to, turned out to be an undercover agent sent by the orthodox sect!

Moreover, this senior brother cooperated with the orthodox sect and wiped out all the participants in this generation's Heavenly Demon Pill Banquet in one fell swoop.

After this battle, the demonic sect will undoubtedly suffer a great loss of vitality!

It is even possible that they will be driven out of the Xu Yuan Land!

The one who started it all is the man in front of her, who has been living with a mask for more than fifty years...

Unfortunately, he was abandoned by the orthodox sect.

Thinking of this, Xiong Ying feels a glimmer of hope and relief in her heart.

This huge rock in front of her is called Lover's Rock, named by her and Pang Yue together.

Half a year ago, the two of them came to the Nine Nether Great Rift Valley in advance to explore the Netherworld River in order to participate in the Heavenly Demon Pill Banquet.

The Netherworld River, which is extremely dangerous for disciples of the orthodox sect, is considered a treasure trove by the disciples of the White Bone Demon Sect.

Here, there are endless demons, which are excellent materials for refining White Bone Law Weapons.

The two of them hunted and killed demons here, refined their own Law Weapons, and gained great benefits.

During this period, they discovered this huge rock. At that time, they were deeply in love, so they named this place Lover's Rock.

In fact, this huge rock is extremely ugly and has nothing to do with "lovers".

"Senior brother, are you okay?"

Xiong Ying asked with concern.

Pang Yue shook his head and smiled at Xiong Ying, "Junior sister, I have been drugged with Soul-Locking Incense. I need to use the Nine Netherworld River to conceal myself. Please use the white bone shuttle to take me to the Water Mansion to hide. Otherwise, the Gold Core cultivators from Azure Cloud Mountain will catch up soon."

Xiong Ying couldn't help but give him a white look and scolded, "If only you had known earlier, now you are in trouble. Both the orthodox and demonic sects want to get rid of you!"

Pang Yue looked at Xiong Ying affectionately and said, "Other than you, I have nothing..."

Xiong Ying blushed slightly and glanced at Gao Yan, casually asking, "Why did you bring her down here?"

As she spoke, she activated her Law Weapon, the white bone shuttle, and took Pang Yue and herself inside.

The interior of the white bone shuttle is three zhang wide and ten zhang long.

The three of them sat inside the shuttle, and the shuttle's walls were transparent, allowing them to see everything outside.

Xiong Ying formed hand seals and controlled the white bone shuttle to enter the Nine Netherworld River.

Pang Yue said, "This is Gao Yan from Azure Cloud Mountain. Her father, Gao Chong, is a Gold Core cultivator. Keeping her here is like holding a trump card."

Xiong Ying nodded on the surface, but in her heart, she didn't think much of it. She thought to herself, "I'm afraid it's because this woman is so beautiful that they can't bear to kill her."

In the present world, there are only a few special Law Weapons and Law Treasures that can enter the Nine Netherworld River to explore its mysteries.

The White Bone Shuttle of the White Bone Demon Sect is one of them.

I saw the White Bone Shuttle shuttling through the bottom of the Stygian River, carefully pushing away the strange and fierce demons, heading upstream.

After half a day's effort.

The White Bone Shuttle stopped in front of a stone wall at the bottom of the river.

I saw water plants and vines covering the stone wall, behind which was a ancient bronze gate.

A spiritual light flew out of the shuttle and hit the bronze gate, instantly activating its spiritual power and slowly opening it.

The White Bone Shuttle gently swayed and entered.

Behind the gate was a three-section water mansion.

Consisting of a front hall, a middle palace, and a rear courtyard.

The furnishings in the water mansion were ancient and simple, different from the current style, obviously passed down from ancient cultivators.

Unfortunately, there were no valuable treasures left in the mansion, as if they had already been explored by other cultivators.

On that day, Pang Yue and Xiong Ying accidentally discovered this place, but they only used it as a resting place and a hiding place from the demons of the Stygian River.

Of course, this place also left many beautiful memories for the two of them.

They had comprehended several demonic dual cultivation secret techniques here, experiencing a unique taste of passion.

Now, this place has become Pang Yue's secret place to hide from the Gold Core cultivators of the orthodox sects.

In the whole world, except for Xiong Ying, no one else knows about this place.

Other cultivators who want to discover this water mansion at the bottom of the vast Nine Netherworld River can only rely on luck.

After entering the water mansion, Pang Yue came to the secret chamber in the middle palace, ready to seclude himself and restore his cultivation.

After repeatedly using the Heavenly Book of Separation and Regret, his mana was already on the verge of depletion. If it weren't for his innate talent for combat, he would probably not have been able to defeat Gao Yan.

After a while, Xiong Ying quietly entered.

"You can't go back to your orthodox sect, so you thought of me again?" Xiong Ying looked at Pang Yue with a somewhat indifferent expression.

"Sister, why would you think that?" Pang Yue smiled bitterly.

Xiong Ying coldly said, "Then tell me, if the orthodox sect had accepted you before, how would you treat me, a disciple of the demonic sect? Your master is the famous Sun Yiyuan of the Cloud Heaven Sect, would he allow his disciple to become partners with a demonic sect woman?"

Pang Yue said seriously, "I infiltrated the White Bone Demon Sect as a spy to repay my master's kindness. My feelings for you are clear... I just want to resolve the cause and effect of my master's sect, and then take you to become independent cultivators, so that we can have the best of both worlds and not betray our master or each other."

"Sect brother, don't try to deceive me... I don't know you well enough," Xiong Ying smiled and said disdainfully.

"Sister, listen to me..." Pang Yue reached out and embraced her slender waist, pulling her into his arms and coaxing her in every way possible.

Then, there was a scene of tender spring in the secret chamber.

After a long time.

The clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

Xiong Ying draped in a light veil, lazily lying on Pang Yue's chest, her slender white fingers drawing circles on his broad chest.

"Sect brother, it was my fault just now, I misunderstood you..." Xiong Ying's voice was gentle and apologetic as she whispered in Pang Yue's ear.

Pang Yue coughed lightly, neither confirming nor denying.

Xiong Ying continued, "Now we are not safe. If the Gold Core cultivators from the orthodox sects come looking for us, it would be better for you to recover your mana as soon as possible and use that demonic treasure..."

"In that case, I will do as you say!" Pang Yue sighed.

Xiong Ying giggled and said affectionately, "I have sealed her mana and put her on the bed next door. Her clothes have been taken off... She is truly a beauty, a Supreme Grade treasure. You must cherish her!"
