BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 301: A Desperate Gamble!



Within the spatial passageway, an endless, ink-like darkness loomed, as if capable of swallowing all light. Violent spatial turbulence howled by, and from time to time, sharp spatial fragments sliced through the void, producing piercing shrieks.

Amidst all this, a colossal figure cloaked in black flames darted through at great speed.

The usually arrogant Nihility Devouring Flame appeared utterly disheveled. Its massive body, enshrouded in black flames, was covered with wounds of various sizes. Black flames intermittently oozed from the injuries, as though its form might collapse at any moment.

The deep, abyss-like eyes of this creature flickered with pain and rage, a clear indication that the recent battle had taken a heavy toll.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"Curse that man!"

His furious roar echoed through the spatial passage, causing the surrounding space to tremble. Its massive body shook violently, and with each bellow, large amounts of black flame spewed from its mouth, leaving eerie trails in the void.

"This time, such a perfect plan was foiled right at the start by the Gu Clan!"

He gritted its teeth, his voice filled with unwillingness and frustration.

Initially, he had believed that the plan was flawless, even considering that Gu Yuan would be unable to detect it so soon.

Unexpectedly, right at the onset, he had arrived at the scene with that young one, catching it completely off guard.

Clearly, if the plan had been leaked beforehand, he wouldn't have shown up at such a precise moment at the Ling Clan.

This had to be the result of an internal leak within the Hun Clan...

Thinking of this, a cold gleam flashed in his deep eyes.

"Hun Tiandi, I warned you not to trust those useless subordinates of yours!"

"The more people know about a plan, the more likely it is to be leaked!"

The next moment, he turned to look at the man beside him, its voice carrying a hint of blame.

Hearing this, the man's brows furrowed slightly, and for an instant, a powerful pressure emanated from him.

Sensing this, he quickly shut its mouth. It was evident that Hun Tiandi wasn't pleased with the accusation.

But soon, he regained his composure. As the leader of the Hun Clan, he understood that now was not the time for internal disputes.

Especially since Nihility Devouring Flame was still useful.

The two continued to traverse the spatial passage, with spatial fissures occasionally flashing around them, emitting ominous humming sounds. The violent spatial turbulence battered their bodies like invisible blades.

Finally, after a long journey, a faint light appeared ahead...

Hun Realm.

Within a deep canyon, surrounded by pitch-black mountains, it seemed utterly isolated from the world.

The entire complex was jet black, radiating an eerie and sinister aura as though it could devour all light.

Numerous lifelike soul statues stood tall in the square before the hall, each so vivid that they seemed ready to come alive at any moment.

Occasionally, ghostly blue flames floated in the sky, adding a further touch of eerie gloom to the area.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Hun Tiandi and Nihility Devouring Flame emerged from a spatial rift, landing in the center of a large hall.

Inside the vast hall, countless strange soul artifacts hanged from the walls, emitting faint blue light.

Hun Tiandi slowly walked to the throne and sat down, his gaze sweeping over his wounded form.

His brows knitted together.

Indeed, the Hun Clan had suffered a significant loss this time.

Nihility Devouring Flame's injuries were severe, and who knew when they would heal.

"This matter is more peculiar than it seems."

"Our clan leaking the plan is simply impossible."

His voice was deep and carried a hint of displeasure.

Hearing this, Nihility Devouring Flame's abyss-like eyes flickered with disdain.

Just as he was about to speak in retort, the other raised his hand, cutting off his words.

"What matters most right now is how to ensure your survival!"

Hun Tiandi's voice grew more solemn.

"Gu Yuan was right before- now that the devouring abilities of Tunling Clan have been exposed, the other ancient clans on the continent will undoubtedly stand against us."

"After all, no one can tolerate the existence of a power capable of seizing the bloodline strength of others. The other ancient clans will rally to attack you just as they did to the Tunling Clan in ancient times."

With this, he clasped his hands together, staring sharply at Nihility Devouring Flame.

Hearing this, his massive body shuddered slightly. A complex expression flashed across its deep eyes, and it stared intensely at him.

"Are you planning to hand me over to save your clan?"

His voice was numb. If Hun Tiandi chose to betray him now, with his current grievous

injuries...

"If I had intended that, I wouldn't have shown myself earlier..."

He cut in, a trace of displeasure crossing his face. A sharp gleam flashed in his abyss-like eyes

as he spoke.

"Of course, I trust you."

"So what's our next move?"

Nihility Devouring Flame's enormous body relaxed slightly. His gaze softened as he glanced

at him, his voice carrying a tinge of helplessness.

"At this point, we'll have to rely on Miesheng to gather enough soul essence to push you to

reach the God Soul realm."

Tiandi's eyes glimmered as he considered this.

Indeed!

Earlier, he had thought about stalling Gu Yuan to give Nihility Devouring Flame enough time

to wipe out all the Ling Clan members. That way, without witnesses, it would just be the Gu Clan's word, which might not be enough to convince others.

Unfortunately, he had been gravely injured before he arrived. Even if he stalled, wiping out the entire clan would have been impossible.

They had clearly underestimated their opponents this time- who would have expected the Gu

Clan to intervene?

Had they acted as originally planned, the Gu Clan would have quickly intervened anyway.

And with the Ling Realm unsealed, annihilating the entire clan was never truly feasible.

"Indeed, as soon as I reach the God Soul realm, I'll be able to hold off that old man!" Nihility Devouring Flame nodded in agreement, a flicker of hope glimmering in its deep eyes.

Lei Realm, the sacred land of the ancient Lei Clan.

The landscape here was unlike any in the normal world.

Everywhere one looked, strange silver trees glistened. These were the Lei Clan's unique Silver Trees, which not only continuously infused the land with lightning power but also served as a vital resource for the clan's cultivation.

The branches of the Silver Trees stretched out like forks of lightning, with serrated leaves radiating a silver-blue glow. As the breeze swept through, the leaves brushed against one another, crackling faintly as if tiny currents of electricity coursed through them.

The entire silver forest exuded a menacing pressure, so intense that ordinary people could not

approach.
