Chapter 156: Danger

Looking back, I saw that the Queen Mother of the West had lost consciousness, with her eyes dim and lifeless. Only half of her body remained outside the black hole.
She was still suspended in the middle of the black hole, showing no sign of dissipation.
The arrow by Hou Yi earlier had completely destroyed her vitality and defeated her.
According to the rules, after Queen Mother of the West was defeated, she should have immediately dissipated and returned to the world of Shanhai like all the other mythical beasts.
然而事实上，西王母迟迟没有消散，依旧留在这个世界。
她召唤出来的黑洞也还存在着，所以用来禁锢黑洞的九龙金轮，也在持续放射金色光芒，对抗黑洞。
Gradually, the black hole began to behave strangely, and the golden light slowly transformed into inky black rays under the reversal of the black hole.
It was teeth-gritting and extremely evil aura that slowly emanated from the black hole, carrying a corrupt smell that made people feel sick and nearly faint.
"How could that be?"
后羿眉头紧锁，如临大敌，立即从兽皮箭袋里剩下的两支箭矢中抽出一支来，搭在长弓上，随时准备拉开弓弦。
西王母确实被后羿打败，但是战斗并未因此结束，还有敌人出现。
"Is it possible that Xi Wangmu isn't our real enemy?"
"Black Grandpa's scalp started to tingle."
"He always believed that Xi Wangmu was the mastermind behind the invasion of Earth by the Shanhai World, and that defeating Xi Wangmu would save Earth and restore peace to both worlds."
However, judging from the current situation, it is clear that Xi Wangmu is not the leader of this invasion.
The real mastermind is still at large!
Who could it be?
It's hard to imagine what kind of existence exists in the Shanhai world that can manipulate Xi Wangmu's will and make her willing to act as a vanguard and invade Earth.
Amidst the tense gazes of everyone, the black hole in the sky reversed its course and swallowed the Nine-Dragon Golden Wheel. The previously intertwined five-clawed golden dragons turned into nine black demonic dragons seething with black aura under the influence of the black hole.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Suddenly, icy cold chains extend out of the black hole, flying forward for unknown miles, as if to cover the entire sky of the earth.
A pair of pitch-black claws reach out from the black hole and grab the remains of the Queen Mother of the West from behind, pulling her into the black hole completely.
Next, the black hole surged and a terrifying presence was about to descend.
"Hahaha!" Translation:
A series of arrogant laughter echoed from the depths of the black hole. Slowly but surely, a pair of pale hands broke open the black hole and pulled themselves out.
The hands were thin and bony, with long and slender fingers resembling the claws of a white skeleton. They gripped the invisible edge of the black hole, exerting force to push themselves out.
Next, a man with long white hair emerged from the black hole, bare-chested and free from its grasp.
他抬起头，脸颊消瘦，浑身上下没有一丝血肉，都是皮肤紧贴着骨头，外表看起来极为可怕。
另外，他的四肢和腰上还锁着链条和镣铐，极为沉重。
"It's you!"
后羿两眼一瞪，毫不犹豫的举起手中的弓箭，对着从黑洞中出现的白发男子射了一箭过去。
箭矢脱离弓弦的瞬间，再度化作一条神龙，咆哮着要将白发男子吞噬。
"Hmph!"
The gray-haired man snorted coldly and opened his mouth, suddenly taking in a breath of cold air.
The dragon flying towards him quickly shrank and eventually turned into a small snake, which fell into his mouth and was swallowed in one breath.
"This!"
The crowd in the city of C was stunned when they saw this scene.
The white-haired man who had swallowed the divine dragon suddenly inflated like a balloon, and in the blink of an eye, his bony body had gained solid flesh.
A perfect image of a white-haired male god appeared in front of everyone, making people admire him.
"It's him!"
The knowledgeable black grandfather saw through the true appearance of this white-haired man and exclaimed, "He's not dead yet! All of these things were done by him!"
Ling Chengfeng looked at the terrified Black Grandpa and couldn't help but ask, "Who is he?"
"Danger!"
Black Grandpa's face was extremely ugly and said, "He was once a servant of the Sky God Er Fu, and later he instigated Er Fu to join hands in killing another Sky God, Ji Mu."
"After the Heavenly Emperor learned of this matter, he was furious and commanded the Queen Mother of the West to capture the two officials and punish them severely. He put a collar on Qi, tortured him, and imprisoned him forever under a tree."
"What is a ferret-badger?"
Ling Chengfeng was startled and remembered the ferocious beast that the three people had sent them into the underground sun in the desert realm.
"That's right, the Qiangju is the son of the Candle Dragon. He used to be a heavenly god, symbolizing auspiciousness. After being killed by Er Fu and Wei Lian, the Emperor of Heaven sent the Great God Houyi to our country to search for the elixir of life and revive Qiangju."
As a wizard from the Undead Kingdom, Black Grandpa knows a lot of untold stories. He explains, "Unexpectedly, the resurrected Gou Mang turned into a ferocious beast that eats humans. Later, the Heavenly Emperor ordered the great god Hou Yi to shoot and kill it."
"Huh?"
Ling Chengfeng and Lu Xiaoqi were startled and exclaimed in unison, "We have seen the Qiu Yao before... "
Black Grandpa shook his head and denied, "What you encountered in the underground world were only incarnations of the Qiu Yao's resentment, not its true form."
"Grudge?"
"Yes, it is what some powerful heavenly gods condensed after their tragic death...I understand now!"
Black Grandpa slapped his thigh suddenly, looked up to the danger in the sky and said, "The Heavenly Emperor did not order the execution of Danger back then, only to imprison him forever, his grudges have accumulated to an extremely large extent now."
“That's correct.”
Forward, Houyi took the conversation seriously, took out the last wooden arrow from his quiver, and calmly said, "His grudge is constantly increasing, and over the years, there has been almost no war in the world of mountains and seas. Under the peace, the power of the Western Queen, who presides over punishment and killing, has become weaker and weaker."
"Therefore, it is very likely that he took advantage of the vulnerability of the Western Queen Mother, influenced her with his own grudges, and plotted all of this in secret, in order to free himself."
"If I'm not mistaken, his actual body should still be imprisoned, and what's appearing here is only a manifestation of his grudges."
后羿说着，握着手中的箭矢，用箭头划过自己的手掌心，让锋利的箭头事先沾染上他的热血。
In the sky, Wei had completely emerged from the black hole. Though he was weighed down by heavy shackles and chains, it didn't seem to hinder his movement.
Moreover, there were iron chains constantly extending out of the black hole, spreading densely across the sky, seemingly preparing to bind the entire Earth.
"Hou Yi."
Tianshang sneered and looked at Hou Yi, saying, "Your clone has already fought against Xi Wangmu and has little strength left. You can't stop me."
"That's right, I planned all of this."
"The Heavenly Emperor imprisoned me for millions of years, I hate it!"
"I will devour this world to free my true form and regain my peak strength. Even reaching new heights and absorbing the power of this world for even greater strength."
"Then I will take control of the entire world of mountains and seas, and launch an attack on the heavens! Revenge against the Heavenly Emperor!"
Although Wei's appearance was perfect, his voice sounded like the screams of a ghost from the depths of hell, making people's hearts tremble and skin crawl.
"I won't let you succeed," said Hou Yi as he held his breath and gathered all his divine power into his arrow.
A gust of wind rolled up, and a heatwave spread out from Hou Yi's body as he united with the heavens and became one.
Onlookers instinctively stepped back and made space for him.
“哈哈哈！只要吞噬你这道分身，你在山海世界的本体也会元气大伤。”
危面对后羿的蓄力，全然不惧，反而很是兴奋的舔了舔嘴唇，笑道：“西王母她已经负伤，你要是失去了这道分身，元气大伤之后，山海世界谁能拦我？”
"These two worlds are destined to become the sacrifice of my revenge! I will sacrifice billions of lives to seek revenge on the celestial realm!"
Wei looked up maniacally and laughed wildly, his eyes filled with a hateful gleam.
A terrifying flame rose from his body, causing the people of c city to feel their bodies go weak. Under the oppression of this terrifying flame, each and every one of them felt as if a great mountain had inexplicably appeared, pressing down on their shoulders and causing their legs to give out. They were unable to stand up and remained collapsed on the ground.
