Chapter 1445 - 1445 Dongyu Empire's Most Dazzling Heir (1)
1445 Dongyu Empire’s Most Dazzling Heir (1)
Affected by the battle, the entire Black Sea was enveloped by demonic mist.
The world was pitch-black, and one couldn’t even see the fingers in front of them.
Above the pitch-black Black Sea, a small yacht floated over from somewhere.
A tall and sturdy man was fishing with a fishing rod in his hand. The sky above the inner city had clearly been turned upside down, and the waves on the Black Sea were as high as the sky, but this man, boat, and fishing rod didn’t move at all. Suddenly, a little kid emerged from the cockpit. He looked at the majestic figure in the darkness as he said, “Daddy, they’re fighting.”
Lin Jiansheng smiled and suddenly said, “Move your mother in. Don’t let her get hurt.”
The ‘mother’ he was talking about was a pine wooden puppet made of anthropomorphic pine. Thanks to Lin Jiansheng’s dexterous hands, the wooden puppet had been carved into an exquisite wooden face. Its facial features were quite similar to Su Tingxue’s true appearance.
Not only that, but Lin Jiansheng also gave the puppet a wig and put on a white dress for it. At this moment, the pinewood puppet was standing beside Lin Jiansheng. However, because the sky was too dark, it only looked like a black shadow and wasn’t that obvious.
“Oh, sure.” Ah Kong opened his small arms and hugged his mother’s thigh as he carried the pine figurine back to the cabin with great effort.
At this moment, the AI on the man’s wrist flickered.
Lin Jiansheng used the AI to open the message. When he saw the message from Yu Huang, he smiled and said, “It’s time for us to reel in the net.” Lin Jiansheng slowly retracted his fishing rod. At this moment, Ah Kong ran out again and laid on the deck railing. He stared at the fishing rod in Lin Jiansheng’s hand as he asked curiously, “What did you catch?”
“Don’t be anxious.”
Under Lin Jiansheng’s control, the fishing rod slowly floated up from the bottom of the deep sea. The fishing rod’s line was very heavy, and it seemed like there was something hooked under the hook. Ah Kong rubbed his hands and said impatiently, “Could it be a big whale?!”
“Watch!” Lin Jiansheng forcefully pulled the fishing rod out of the Black Sea Water. When the fishing rod was thrown onto the deck, there was a loud bang.
After Ah Kong ran to the place where the thing had landed and took out the Night-Luminescent Pearl, he squatted down and sized it up. Only then did he realize that it was actually a crystal stone coffin. Inside the stone coffin, there was a mighty man in armor. The man was covered in injuries, but his body wasn’t rotten.
As Ah Kong looked at the corpse, he sensed powerful grievous energy from it. He licked his lips greedily and muttered, “What strong grievous energy. This is a demon!”
Lin Jiansheng said, “It’s a demonic cultivator’s main body.”
Ah Kong’s eyes darted around as he thought for a while and tilted his head to ask Lin Jiansheng, “You’re saying that this is Ye Qingchen’s main body?”
“That’s right.”
After Lin Jiansheng sat down on the reclining chair and crossed his legs, the pick-toed slippers on his feet swayed slightly. He smoked a cigarette as he said to Ah Kong, “Kong Qing didn’t have a body back then. After he died, his phantom accumulated grievous energy and became demonic. That was why he became a Demon Fetus. However, Ye Qingchen is different. Ye Qingchen was the crown prince when he was alive. He died to protect the country. After he died, his killing intent should have exceeded the grievous energy. However, in order to save the Dongyu Empire, he decided to cultivate the demonic path. I’ve seen the document from a thousand years ago. According to the document, when Ye Qngchen rose from the Black Sea, he didn’t have a human body and was only a ball of black fog. Therefore, I guessed that he hid his body.”
After saying that, Lin Jiansheng asked Ah Kong, “Guess why he hid his body and used a crystal coffin to seal it forever?”
Ah Kong didn’t know why Ye Qingchen did this, but he knew how to think from another perspective.
Ah Kong thought about it seriously from Ye Qingchen’s point of view and gave the answer on his mind. “Because he doesn’t want his body of the War God to be polluted by demonic energy.” Ah Kong frowned at the body in the crystal coffin as he said sadly, “He hopes that his body will always be untainted.”
“That’s right. I’ve read about the Dongyu Empire’s national affairs. The last historian of the Dongyu Empire had an extremely high evaluation of His Highness, the Crown Prince Ye Qingchen, and called him the most dazzling successor in the history of the Dongyu Empire. But who would have thought that he would actually reach this stage?”
Shaking his head, Lin Jiansheng lamented, “Zhan Jiuxiao is right about something. Be it cultivating the Spiritual Energy, the Ghost Dao, the demonic path, or other paths, they are essentially no different. Perhaps in the past, Ye Qingchen was also a demonic cultivator who wanted to maintain his original intention and live an upright life. Unfortunately, after being ostracized and insulted by the Beast Tamer Alliance, he gradually lost his original intention and completely embarked onto the demonic path, becoming a demon.”
