Chapter 476 The Power is Gone
Chapter 476 The Power is Gone
After listening to Mingguang's words, Bai Qingjue said indifferently, "I also want to know the answers to these questions."
Mingguang was taken aback. What did that mean?
Bai Qingjue didn't know?
"Bai Qingjue, I have nowhere else to go. You won't even let me die knowing why?"
Bai Qingjue looked at Mingguang with a cold expression and said nothing more.
On this point, he did not hide it from Mingguang. He really did not know. Not only did he not know, but Ling Yi himself probably did not know either. The only one who knew was Tian Yan.
Seeing that Bai Qingjue remained silent, Mingguang turned to Ling Yi and asked, "What exactly are you?!"
Just as Bai Qingjue said, Ling Yi himself did not know, and it was impossible for him to answer Mingguang's question. Of course, even if he knew, he would not answer.
Mingguang never found out the answer. As time passed, Mingguang's soul grew fainter and fainter. When the last bit of soul power was absorbed by Lingyi, Mingguang disappeared completely.
After the light disappeared, the rune chains formed by the power of destiny gathered into a ball of power and floated in place. When Bai Qingjue saw this, he opened his hand to recall the power. However, just as the ball of power was about to fall into his hand, a hand reached out from the side and took the ball of power away.
Bai Qingjue frowned and looked at the person beside her, but upon seeing him, she froze.
Ling Yi's originally dark eyes had turned crimson gold at some point, a blend of red and gold that looked dangerous and mysterious.
"You..." Bai Qingjue looked at Ling Yi, wanting to ask what was wrong with his eyes, but then he saw that Ling Yi was staring at the ball of power in his hand. That power was special; it was a protective talisman left to him by Tian Yan, and it absolutely could not be damaged. Thinking of this, Bai Qingjue did not immediately ask about the condition of his eyes, but instead said, "This power is special. Can you return it to me?"
Ling Yi, supporting that mass of power, glanced at Bai Qingjue with a nonchalant expression. The glance was casual, but the coldness in his eyes instantly alerted Bai Qingjue.
Something is wrong!
Ling Yi's current state is very similar to when he lost control in the Sea God Kingdom before, but that time he lost control because he absorbed the demonic energy that Lin Chengtian unleashed. What is the reason this time?
Because he absorbed the divine soul of Mingguang?
Just as Bai Qingjue was looking at Ling Yi warily, Ling Yi flipped his hand and sent a burst of power towards Bai Qingjue. Bai Qingjue caught it and put it into her sea of consciousness. At the same time, she felt relieved. If they could still communicate, then there was no problem.
Bai Qingjue carefully placed the power of destiny and then returned it to the ice tower. After doing all this, she looked at Ling Yi and said, "As soon as Mingguang dies, the Divine Kingdom will know immediately. As Mingguang said, my main body left the Divine Kingdom when he died, so the Divine Kingdom cannot escape responsibility. After I go back this time, I will not be able to come for a long time. I will have to trouble you with Ajiu."
"Hmm." Ling Yi responded indifferently, indicating that he understood.
Bai Qingjue continued, "Mingguang said that Qingyu knew he was here. I will take responsibility for killing Mingguang when I go back this time. However, Qingyu is a suspicious person by nature and will not easily believe it. He may send people to investigate, or even suppress his power and come personally. Just in case, you would be better off taking them and leaving Mingguang Prefecture as soon as possible."
"I understand." Ling Yi looked at Bai Qingjue and said coldly, "You should leave."
"Okay." Bai Qingjue nodded. "Goodbye."
Ling Yi: "Take care, and don't bother seeing me off."
Bai Qingjue glanced at Ling Yi, said nothing more, and tore open the spatial rift to go inside.
After Bai Qingjue left, Ling Yi moved and disappeared from the spot.
...
"The barrier is starting to disappear." Ye Qingshuang, who had been closely monitoring the barrier, immediately said upon seeing it vanish, "It's over!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Chengtian, who was guarding the liquor, jumped up and asked, "Can we go back now?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang was about to reply when she saw a figure rapidly approaching. The next moment, Ling Yi appeared before them.
"Ling Yi!"
Upon seeing that it was Ling Yi, Ye Qingshuang and Lin Chengtian were relieved, but they soon realized something was wrong: "Ling Yi, where is Ji Changrong?"
"Let's go back." As he spoke, the barrier completely disappeared. Ling Yi walked past the two of them and stopped in front of Bai Jiu. Seeing that the ribbon covering Bai Jiu's eyes was soaked with blood, he knew that he had been seriously injured this time.
Ye Qingshuang looked over and saw that the ribbon was soaked with blood again. She sighed and said, "I applied medicine immediately, but the power is special. My medicine can only alleviate the situation and cannot cure it."
After hearing this, Ling Yi squatted down beside Bai Jiu, parted the ribbon with her fingers to reveal Bai Jiu's eyes, and then used her power to heal him.
As the spiritual light fell, the bleeding from Bai Jiu's eyes slowed down. Once the bleeding had completely stopped, Ling Yi withdrew his hand: "It's not bleeding anymore. Re-bandage it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chengtian took out a handkerchief to wipe away the blood that had flowed earlier, and then took out a new ribbon to bandage Baijiu. While Lin Chengtian was doing these things, Ye Qingshuang asked Ling Yi, "Have you completely dealt with Mingguang?"
Ling Yi responded, "Mm."
Ye Qingshuang asked curiously, "How was it resolved?"
Ling Yi: "I ate it."
Ye Qingshuang was startled: "You ate it?"
Lin Chengtian, who was bandaging the baijiu, paused upon hearing this and looked at Ling Yi.
Ye Qingshuang and Lin Chengtian already knew that Ling Yi could eat a lot, so there was nothing surprising about that. What Ye Qingshuang was worried about was something else.
"Mm," Ling Yi said calmly, "I ate."
Upon confirmation, Ye Qingshuang quickly pulled Ling Yi aside to examine him: "Mingguang is, after all, the son of a true god, unlike ordinary beings. Your body is currently restricted; will it be alright for you to eat him?"
"It's nothing." Ling Yi frowned slightly at this, "When I first ate it, I could feel my body's strength increasing, but now..."
Seeing Ling Yi stop, Ye Qingshuang asked worriedly, "What's wrong now?"
Ling Yi: "It's gone."
Ye Qingshuang was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. Gone?
Ye Qingshuang asked, "Where is the power?"
Ling nodded: "Mm."
"It's weird."
“It is indeed strange…” Ye Qingshuang pondered for a moment and then asked, “Ling Yi, do you have any other discomfort?”
Ling Yi shook his head: "No, it's just that the power has disappeared."
"As long as you don't feel any other discomfort, it's fine." Ye Qingshuang was relieved: "I was worried that you wouldn't be able to handle it, but now I can rest assured."
Before Ling Yi could speak, Ye Qing Shuang continued, "Although it's strange that the power disappeared, as long as you don't feel any discomfort and it doesn't affect your ability to use the power, there's no problem. It's possible that the power disappeared because they were afraid your body couldn't handle it and thus it was stored somewhere else."
Ling Yi: "Where?"
"Uh," Ye Qingshuang said, "Ling Yi, if you don't know, then I certainly don't know either."
"I think you make a good point," Ling said expressionlessly. "Since there's nothing else, let's not think about it for now. The important thing is to get down to business."
Is business more important?
Ye Qingshuang looked puzzled. Their real purpose in coming here was to find something to deal with Mingguang. Now that Mingguang was dealt with, had they not found the thing yet?
