Chapter 1172: Break The Barrier
"Mhmm." Feng Yujie groaned softly and opened her eyes before being shocked by the sight of her room in Yunlong Zhuzhai. She hurriedly got out of bed, but Feng Ling'er entered at the same time. "Ling'er! Where is your father? Did Ling Yun kill him?"
"Yes." Feng Yujie staggered back as Feng Ling'er nodded. "My husband not only killed my father, but he also killed others."
Feng Yujie's body trembled uncontrollably as tears flowed down from her eyes. "Why? Why did he have to kill him?"
"Isn't that my father's own fault?" Feng Yujie's expression turned angry after Feng Ling'er asked that. "He knew that my husband wasn't in good shape, and Yun'er had asked him to hand over Uncle Tian's egg to her. Unfortunately, he didn't fulfill his wish and threw the egg into the void, which infuriated him. As a result, the other phoenixes also had to suffer the consequences, and they died because of his stupidity."
"Why are you defending Ling Yun? Feng Gaoxin is your biological father! You should be protecting him!" Feng Yujie shouted in frustration.
"Feng Gaoxin is my biological father, but what has he done for me? He left you when you were pregnant with me, and he was never there for me. I didn't know him because I never met him, and all I knew about him was from your stories. Do you think that's enough for me to accept him as my father?" Feng Yujie wanted to refute Feng Ling'er, but no words came out of her mouth. "The late Aunt Bing'er was your biological sister, and she was the one who always accompanied you, especially when you felt sad remembering him in the past. Uncle Tian killed her, yet your husband foolishly chose to keep her killer's egg."
"But—"
"Is Feng Gaoxin more important to you than Aunt Bing'er?" Feng Ling'er interrupted her mother directly. "She will be reborn after her egg hatches, but she will never be the same. Even if Sister Xi can help her get her old memories back, she will still be a new individual. The two of you have been together for several thousand years in the past, but my husband cared much more about her than you, even though they had only been together for less than two years, and her death dealt him a heavy blow. My late aunt was important to this family, and my father was a stranger. If his death is more painful than her death, then you don't deserve to be part of this family."
"Are... are you kicking me out?" Feng Yujie asked in a trembling tone.
"Yes." Feng Ling'er answered firmly. "I wanted to kick you out not because I hate you, but because I fully understand my husband's character. If you blame him for his decision about Feng Gaoxin's death, I'm sure he will kill you, even if you are my mother. I don't want you to die by his hands, so leave this house if you value him more than the late Aunt Bing'er. Moreover, he will be reborn after his egg hatches, and he can live a new life according to his wishes. My husband is on his way to the Netherworld Realm, and he will go to several other realms after that, so you still have some time to think things over. If you still want to stay here with us, you must learn to accept the reality. Otherwise, you can leave this residence, or you will die in his hands. By the way, your husband's egg is not here, and the immortals are keeping all the phoenix eggs in the tower."
After she said all that, Feng Ling'er immediately left her mother's room, leaving Feng Yujie sitting weakly on the side of the bed and crying even louder.

"Aren't you being too harsh with Aunt Yujie, Ling'er?" Feng Ruxue asked.
Feng Ling'er sighed softly and turned to Feng Yujie's room. "My previous words were indeed too harsh, but I said all that for her own good. Our husband may have been pretending to fall under the influence of his devil's side, but his actions against Feng Gaoxin and the others were real, and he would not hesitate to kill her if she continued to blame him for my father's death."
"Yeah." Feng Ruxue replied with a heavy sigh. "Our husband has changed a lot with each passing time, and my mother's death has changed him even more. If he were still the old him, he would never have killed Uncle Gaoxin and the other phoenixes, but he killed them without a second thought."
"What about you, Big Sis?" Feng Ling'er asked.
Feng Ruxue shook her head. "Just like you, Feng Tian is just a stranger to me, and I don't feel anything because of his death. Instead, I hate him so much because he killed my mother because of his jealousy, and I might have killed him myself if our husband hadn't killed him."
"If I think back to our past, you were always crueler than me, Big Sis." Feng Ling'er said this with a chuckle.
Feng Ruxue shrugged in response. "Back then, I was the matriarch of our Feng clan, so I had no choice but to act cruelly for the safety of our members. However, I feel that I have become dull now, and I have always been under the protection of our husband since we arrived in this realm or in the tower. My cultivation is still far from the Five God Realms, but he will bring us to the supreme realm soon. Although I am not ready for that, I do not want to go against his wishes, especially since he is the key to saving the universe from the Chaos."
"I feel the same as you." Feng Ling'er suddenly remembered something. "Big Sis, our husband did want to go to the Supreme Realm ahead of schedule, but he said he would bring us into seclusion for a few years. Therefore, we still have plenty of time to prepare ourselves, and we should focus on increasing our cultivation during that time so we won't continue to be a burden to him."

Feng Ruxue nodded in agreement. "Even though our husband's plan to establish a sect is still just a plan, I can see that he is serious about his idea. He has ordered Lian Bing and Ling Ling to prepare the disciples of the sect to be brought to the Supreme Realm, and he intends to go to the Sacred Land of Swords to recruit Jian Xian and Yun Liang. Therefore, we don't have time to relax, and we all have to focus on the single goal of breaking through to the Five God Realms first."
"In that case, let's go to the pagoda to cultivate our souls first, especially since we lag behind others in soul cultivation." Both women then went to the Ancient Treasure Pagoda and cultivated their souls on the first floor.

By using the fastest flying artifact in the Supreme Realm, Ling Yun and his entourage were able to arrive outside the Netherworld Realm in a short time.
Wang Jinlong, who was waiting there in his golden dragon form, was shocked when he saw Ling Yun. He did not expect that he would come out of the tower faster than he had originally estimated, but he was also confused by his current appearance.
'Why did he pretend to fall into the influence of his devil's side? His appearance does resemble the devil, but he's not really a devil.' Wang Jinlong then looked at Taiyang Jinwu and the others. 'They must be the descendants of the loyal followers of the old primordial chaos dragon, and almost half of them have already reached the immortal emperor realm.'
"Golden dragon king."
Wang Jinlong returned to his human form as soon as Feng Huang and Yue Mengyi got off the Shidai. "Why is your expression so bad, Feng Huang?"
"My mother-in-law was furious because I killed several phoenixes." Wang Jinlong stared at Ling Yun with a shocked and furious expression. "One of their family killed my wife, so I killed them to feel her suffering. However, I still gave them some mercy because I did not destroy their bodies and cores, and they can be reborn in the future."
Wang Jinlong was about to speak, but Taiyang Jinwu abruptly interrupted. "Do you want me to destroy this barrier, master?"
"No need." Ling Yun took out the Chaos Dragon Seven-Form Scythe and transformed it into a broadsword. "Vadin and his subordinates caused Helena to suffer for hundreds of years, and I am her husband, so it is my duty to end her suffering. If the other demons dare to fight us, I want you guys to kill them straight away. Do you all understand?"
"Yes, Master!" Po Tianyuan and the female beasts answered in unison.
Meanwhile, Ling Yu'er had already removed her necklace and allowed Tian Hu to take over her body. "I haven't fought in a long time, so I will accompany you in this fight, master."
"Yeah." Ling Yun grabbed the hilt of the broadsword with both hands and released his cultivation to the maximum. He then used the Nine Devil Dragon Technique and the Dragon Manifestation.
Wang Jinlong and Feng Huang flew backward as soon as the silhouettes of the primordial chaos dragon and nine small dragons appeared behind Ling Yun, especially since their pressure was too powerful for them.
Ling Yung took a deep breath before swinging his broadsword. "Chaos Dragon Rend!"
