Chapter 230 - Everyone is Trapped Under The Black Veil
Chapter 230: Everyone is Trapped Under The Black Veil
After the huge black bowl-like cover covered the island, the area gradually regained its calm.
Just as everyone was hesitating about whether to go up and take a look, a white light suddenly shot from the distant sky. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a snow eagle with a wingspan of five meters flying in the sky.
It’s the third pillar of Shenxia, Zhou Chen! He’s here too!
“Look, there’s a blood cloud flying over there… It’s the tyrant Blood War Emperor of the White Eagle Kingdom!”
“They must have received the news of the shattered veil and rushed over to help.”
The experts who were there to provide support first briefly understood the situation from the Alliance members present before heading towards the black barrier.
Everyone thought that the black barrier would not be able to stop them. Who knew that after a few minutes, the two of them would return in defeat.
“I can’t break it.”
Zhou Chen frowned and shook his head when he heard the divine union member’s question. “That’s a combination Skill. Once you enter, you’ll have a Beast King’s clone with three layers of colored veil…”
Although he did not continue, everyone knew that Zhou Chen had no way to deal with the colored film.
Someone in the crowd immediately suggested, “Then let’s go in together and use the same force we used to break the veil just now to break it again.”
“Yes, yes, yes. We have more people. We can work together to defeat the enemy.”
This suggestion won the most approval.
Zhou Chen seemed to have something that was difficult to say, but after pondering for a while, he still smiled bitterly, “Then you guys can try.”
He and White Eagle’s tyrant blood war emperor had actually entered together.
However, he was the only one who entered, so he suspected that everyone would be separated into different areas.
It was useless to have more people.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, everyone returned depressed.
“I’ll be going alone. Why should I fight?”
“The guards that were left behind were too much of a bug.”
The Beast King must have absorbed the dark sky’s energy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become so abnormal.
After coming out, the people who were helpless against the black barrier left one after another.
Only a portion of the Alliance members were left to guard.
…
Nangong Li sent Ling Yi home.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, she said gratefully, “Thank you for your help. Others might not have noticed, but I did.”
“We’ve attacked from below several times before, but we weren’t able to break it. The reason we were able to break it in that instant was mainly because of your golden dragon.”
“You’ve made another great contribution!”
Ling Yi waved his hand nonchalantly and asked, “What are you going to do next?”
A light breeze blew past, blowing the golden hair by Nangong Li’s ear.
She tucked her golden hair behind her ear and shook her head with a chuckle. “We can’t even get in from the outside, so we can only wait.”
“When the battle inside the black cover is over, the black cover will naturally open.”
“Yes.”
Ling Yi nodded. He thought so too.
After Nangong Li left, he walked on the path of flowers under the moonlight and returned to the brightly lit house.
As soon as they entered, Lin Shurou and the others came over to ask curiously.
Ling Yi explained everything in detail and finally said, “I’ve also entered that black barrier, and the guards are indeed very difficult to deal with.”
They nodded.
Ding dong~
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong—
The doorbell suddenly rang madly. The person urgently rang the noise over and over as if it was foretelling the anxiety of the person who rang the doorbell.
Ling Yi raised his eyebrows and activated his perception. He was stunned when he sensed that someone had come.
“Is it her?”
When Ling Yi walked out of the courtyard with a frown on his face, Lin Shurou and the others, who were confused and curious, followed him.
However, when they saw the person outside the door, all the women were stunned.
“Saint… Shengya?”
The person outside the door was the assistant of the clear Lotus Palace’s goddess, Shengya!
Ling Yi even used his eyes of truth to check and confirm that it was indeed her.
At this moment, she was still wearing a white dress, but her delicate and beautiful face was full of anxiety.
The moment she saw Ling Yi, she immediately said, “I’m Shengya, the assistant of the clear Lotus Palace’s goddess. My sister Qing… The goddess gave me an address and told me to find the master of this place. She said that only he could save them!”
“Save them?”
Ling Yi opened the door to let her in and frowned. “Aren’t they fighting the Beast King under the black veil? What do you mean?”
“It’s not good to talk here, let’s go in first!”
Soon, the group of people arrived in the hall and took their seats.
Under their puzzled gazes, Shengya explained to them, “… When we were covered by the nest god’s barrier, we tried to attack it, but it was useless.”
“The Nest God created a field full of vines. In that limited space, we had no place to hide, and everyone was caught.”
“It didn’t kill us immediately. Instead, it wanted to obliterate everyone’s consciousness and control us!”
“At the last moment, Sister Qing gave me a note and asked Lin Shenzhu, Luo Yuan, and Sword Saint Nangong to kill me before I lost consciousness. This allowed me to be resurrected at the Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument and pass the news back.”
Shengya took out the note that Zhang Qing had given her.
The few of them took a look and saw the words written on it.
“Qianjiang City, Firefly Town, 33 Phoenix Street. The man there can save us.”
“This…” They looked at each other.
“This note was written in advance, right?” Ling Yi said.
“That’s right. It’s because Sister Qing has the ability to predict the future.” Shengya nodded.
“Then why did she get caught?” Ling Yi didn’t understand.
“Mm…”
Shengya pondered for a while. “She said before that the seemingly safe choice will sometimes lead to a bad ending. The seemingly dangerous choice can lead to a flourishing path.”
“So, she knew that there was danger, but she still went in…?”
Ling Yi didn’t know what to say. Were all people with the ability to predict the future so brave?
Shengya sized Ling Yi up and gradually remembered him. She said in surprise, “You’re the Ling Yi who discovered the two statues’ functions, right? Are you the master of this home?”
“Yes, I am.”
Shengya looked at the few people beside her.
The moment she saw Xia Wanqing, an idea flashed in her mind.
She looked at Ling Yi again and said carefully, “You’re actually… 01?”
“That’s right.” Ling Yi nodded honestly.
Seeing this, Shengya nodded. “No wonder! No wonder! There’s indeed hope.”
For the first time, hope appeared in her beautiful eyes, as if she had come back to life.
Seeing the other party looking at him with anticipation, Ling Yi frowned and said, “But to be honest, I’m still a bit far from it.”
“It’s fine.”
Shengya slowly let out a sigh of relief, “It’s good that you’re willing to help. Sister Qing said that it would take at least dozens of days to obliterate their consciousness and completely control them.”
“After that, they should also regain consciousness for a short time. We’ll know how long they can last tomorrow.”
“Alright, I still have to bring this news back so I won’t stay any longer.”
Shengya stood up and walked towards the door. Before she left the courtyard, she turned around and looked into Ling Yi’s eyes. She said meaningfully, “You’re someone that Sister Qin values. If you need any help, you can come to me. I’ll do my best to help you.”
“Okay.” Ling Yi replied indifferently.
Seeing his perfunctory expression, Shengya sighed in her heart.
Without saying anything more, she turned around and summoned a white crane, then sat on it and flew into the sky.
After Shengya left, Ling Yi’s emotions gradually calmed down.
‘Lin Meng, Luo Yuan, Nangong Han, goddess Zhang Qing… They’ve all been caught by the Beast King…’
He could not help but shake his head and sigh when he thought of Lin Ying, who was still laughing beside him, and Nangong Li, who was worried about his father.
*Sigh*
Ling Yi wasn’t particularly worried.
Even if they were really controlled, he could probably save them with a high-quality control removal item.
What he needed to do now was to continue to improve his strength.
‘I’ll go to the main road later.’
Then, he turned around and walked into the house.
Lin Shurou, Yunji, and the others were waiting for him at the entrance. Ling Yi suddenly realized something when he saw them. ‘Right, I must work harder to improve my Yang energy.’
After he entered, the lights in the living room quickly dimmed, and the lights in the bedroom on the second floor lit up.
