When the Nether Acupoint vanished into the air, Chen Hao looked down at the surging lava below, then closed his eyes, forced out all the Nether King's Power from the Nether King's Heart in his left eye, and poured it into the lava below.
After he had exhausted all the Nether King's Power within his body, the lava below calmed down due to the Nether King's Power.
He then immediately released the half of the Nether King's Heart that he held in his left hand.
The half of the Nether King's Heart slowly fell, finally dropping into the lava. Instantly, a layer of ice formed over the lava.
At this moment, Yue'er, the newly appointed elder of the Snow Mountain Tribe, arrived with all the maidens, sat around the half of the Glacier Heart, and began to close their eyes and chant spells.
After a while, Chen Hao saw that all the lava had been frozen, forming chunks of red ice crystals. Below, the heart of the Volcano King was also encased in ice by the half of the Nether King's Heart.
Seeing this, Chen Hao sighed deeply and silently messaged Ye Yuqiao inside the Nether Acupoint, "Yuqiao, the heart of the Volcano King is frozen. The crisis is resolved."
"Mm!" Ye Yuqiao's voice was very faint, "Chen Hao, I'm very tired; I want to rest a bit."
"Ah!" Chen Hao was startled, his eyes filled with panic.
"Silly, I'm not resting forever, just for a while. Rest assured, from now on, Yuqiao belongs to you. I won't leave you again."
"You scared me!"
Chen Hao chuckled foolishly, repeating, "That's good, that's good, that's good."
Then, Chen Hao left Netherworld City and returned to Xie Xiaofeng and Ou Yuanlin's side.
He first smiled at Xiao Bai, telling him not to worry about Ye Yuqiao, then he patted Xie Xiaofeng and Ou Yuanlin on the shoulders, significantly saying, "It's all right now, everything is fine!"
Next, to Chen Hao's surprise, Xie Xiaofeng suddenly stepped forward and hugged him.
"Jerk, congratulations, you finally did it, you're finally together with Yuqiao!" Xie Xiaofeng hugged Chen Hao very tightly, appearing even happier than Chen Hao.
"Watching you two come this far, I'm really happy that you have such an ending," Xie Xiaofeng continued.
Hearing Xie Xiaofeng's words, Chen Hao's eyes moistened, feeling Xie Xiaofeng's genuine concern.
It was a true friendship, and also his fortune.
If he hadn't had friends like Xie Xiaofeng and Tang Jing to help him along the way, he and Ye Yuqiao probably wouldn't have had such a perfect ending.
"Thank you!" Chen Hao said emotionally, putting his endless gratitude for Xie Xiaofeng into this thank you.
After parting with Xie Xiaofeng, Chen Hao turned to Ou Yuanlin and smiled, "Of course, I must also thank you!"
Ou Yuanlin continuously waved his hands, his expression awkward, "Chen Hao, it should be me thanking you. Last time, you let me go, taught me the meaning of living; this time, you came here to rescue me."
Chen Hao smiled slightly, then turned to Tu Yi and Han Shuang.
"Why did you come back?" he asked, "But thankfully you did return; you saved us!"
Tu Yi and Han Shuang exchanged smiles, then both looked at Chen Hao.
"Since we parted last time, Tu Yi and I have always been concerned about the situation here, so we came back,"
"Chen Hao, don't say that. If it weren't for you showing up, Tu Yi and I wouldn't have had a chance to be together. And without you, our Snow Mountain Tribe couldn't have escaped that demon," Han Shuang said gratefully.
Chen Hao shook his head with a smile, "I got rid of him, mostly out of self-interest."
"No matter your motives, you indeed did something that was beneficial for our Snow Mountain people."
"So, what are your plans for the future?"
Han Shuang looked towards Tu Yi, seriously considering for a moment before saying, "Now that our tribespeople have been forced to leave their homeland, and the ancient city has been destroyed, we plan to find our tribespeople first, then rebuild this ancient city."
"Senior!" A voice suddenly came from behind Han Shuang.
Han Shuang turned around, her face showing surprise. Unbeknownst to her, Yue'er had arrived behind her.
"The elder had told me before that if you returned, Senior, you would take over as elder. Moreover, the elder had already discussed it with the leader and decided to make an exception for you. After you become an elder, you can also marry and have children."
Han Shuang looked very surprised, "Why?"
"The elder said, Senior, you have exceptional talents and are the most suitable successor," Yue'er explained.
Han Shuang fell into deep thought, and after a long while, she came back to her senses, hugged Yue'er's arm, and smiled, "But today, I found that you, Yue'er, are even more talented than I am. So, you should take the position of elder. Besides, the rule that elders cannot marry or have children has been passed down by our ancestors, and we should not break it."
..
..
Nightfall had come.
Due to concerns that the Volcano King's heart might revive, to be safe, Chen Hao decided to stay in the ancient city for three days before returning to Netherworld City.
Since the Glacier Heart had already re-fused, the elites and geniuses who had obtained immortality through the oath made by the Second Generation Nether King using the Glacier Heart, lost their souls as the oath was dissolved.
Thus, under the ruins of the ancient city, which had turned into a wasteland, there were no bodies to be found, but there were many treasures collected by the Second Generation Nether King from both Yin and Yang realms.
However, Yue'er directly used a spell to release the strong Spiritual Power of the Glacier Heart, destroying both the ruins and treasures, leveling the ancient city to the ground, and starting the long road to reconstruction.
In the Nether Acupoint.
Chen Hao sat on the ground, pulling Ye Yuqiao into his arms, gazing at her obsessively.
Ye Yuqiao was in a deep sleep, breathing very peacefully.
Listening to Ye Yuqiao's breathing, Chen Hao's excited heart gradually calmed down, a faint joy and satisfaction filling his heart.
It was precisely because everything was so hard-won that he felt it was so precious at that moment.
He lowered his head and left a deep kiss on Ye Yuqiao's face.
"Jerk, you kissed me secretly again."
Just then, Ye Yuqiao suddenly woke up.
"You are mine, I can kiss you whenever I want," Chen Hao said with a smile.
Ye Yuqiao opened her eyes and slowly raised her hand to pinch Chen Hao's cheek, "But I am a domineering queen. You should say you are mine, Ye Yuqiao's, and kissing me is a privilege I give you."
"It hurts," he said.
"That's good, it means you are not dreaming."
Chen Hao looked at Ye Yuqiao with a foolish smile, paused, and sighed, "The greatest happiness is that you are still by my side, not just a memory."
"Haven't I always been by your side?" Ye Yuqiao squeezed harder, "Don't ever take the Nether Soul Body for granted as Ye Yuqiao!"
Chen Hao nodded, "That's why I always feel so happy."
"I am too!"
Ye Yuqiao hooked her hand around Chen Hao's neck, then brought her face close to his and said affectionately, "Chen Hao, thank you, you didn't give up on Yuqiao."
After saying this, Ye Yuqiao kissed Chen Hao...
