Chapter 1553: Chapter 1192: No Great Ambition
"..."
"No more?" After a moment of silence, Long Yi couldn’t help but speak up.
"Yes, that is the greatest secret!" The Worm’s consciousness said.
"Oh my God, I thought I could get something truly meaningful from you. Whether she is from the Heavenly Kingdom or not, what does it matter?"
"Haha, you really are a fool. You have never seen the grandeur and might of the Heavenly Kingdom, so in your mind, the Heavenly Kingdom means nothing. Once you understand what a great existence the Heavenly Kingdom is, you will realize what it means for someone from the Heavenly Kingdom to appear here! Let me survive! Long Yi! I will help you control Simu! The current Simu is still not complete; once she is complete again, you will realize the terrifying power that someone from the Heavenly Kingdom can have, enough to shake the entire Divine Realm!"
The consciousness of the Worm spoke passionately. Had it not been Long Yi here, but rather any random person, they probably would have been tempted, but Long Yi was not just any random person.
"I can only say sorry about this," Long Yi said with a smile.
"Whether it’s out of respect for the Creator God or out of friendship, I absolutely cannot agree to such a thing. Moreover, Simu is my best brother’s wife, and your behavior here is truly despicable to a certain degree."
"You fool! Don’t you understand? This is an opportunity that could allow you to control the entire Divine Realm, maybe even advance into the Heavenly Kingdom effortlessly!"
"No, no, no, I think this is the difference between higher and lower beings. We higher beings first think of human emotions. And you lower beings only think about two things: survival and benefit. So, go in peace, and don’t worry about the magic activation, even if I can’t use the Worm’s nest, I’m not going to leave such a huge threat by my side."
"You fool! Fool! A man with no ambition! You can’t do this! You can’t! I would make you the god above all gods! I would help you enter the Heavenly Kingdom! Make you the one and only!"
The Worm’s consciousness was still clamoring, but Long Yi shook his head and said to Long Er, "Destroy completely, leaving no trace."
"Executing destruction rule," Long Er mechanically stated.
Long Er held the bundle of the Worm’s consciousness in his hands. The voice of the Worm disappeared immediately; light sprayed out from between the fingers. Moments later, as Long Er opened his hand, there was nothing left in his palm.
"The consciousness of the Worm has been completely destroyed, and the residual energy traces have also been destroyed; destruction rule execution ended."
Long Yi nodded, then released the Gluttonous Snake: "Go, eat up all the Worms, then we’ll leave this place."
The Gluttonous Snake split into countless small points of light, expanding in all directions.
Inside the Genesis Artifact in the Middle Plane,
Simu took a deep breath and moved her hand away from a device button. Then, raising her hand, she dismantled the device into pieces.
"Creator God; friend; and best friend’s wife. Heh, Long Yi, that guy, really is interesting. I thought he would agree, given that in this universe, no life could refuse. But now, I am relieved. The consciousness of the Worm is gone, and next, Long Yi will surely come here to inquire about it. How should I respond? Well, lying is too troublesome, better to tell the truth."
At this moment, the Mermaid Princess Mina was already very anxious, having thought several times to rush over, but remembering the threat of the Worm, she held back.
Finally, when Long Yi entered the Ancient Mage Tower an hour later, he reappeared.
"Brother Long!" Seeing the relaxed expression on Long Yi’s face, she knew all threats had been eliminated.
"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Long Yi’s mood was really good; he even hugged Mina and spun her around, a gesture he often made when she was a child. Back then, Long Yi did it as an elder, but now, it looked more like the actions of a peer.
Cough cough.
A coughing sound, declaring its presence, came from far away; Long Yi looked up to see, as expected, it was Boris the Sea Emperor.
"Your Majesty!" Long Yi smiled and released Mina, bowing to Boris.
"I received Mina’s message and came immediately with the army, as per your instructions, all life nearby has been expelled or killed. So, has the matter been resolved?" Boris asked sternly.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the matter has been relatively smoothly resolved," Long Yi said.
"So, what about the ship?" Boris asked.
"I think it should be leaving soon," Long Yi said.
"Is that so? Since it’s like that, what will you do next?" The Sea Emperor’s expression seemed somewhat unfriendly.
"Erm, probably return to the Heavenly Realm to study how to use the Worm Nest and resolve the crisis in the entire multiverse," Long Yi said.
"That is indeed impressive! However, I want to ask you about this major crisis you left behind, how do you plan to resolve it?"
Major crisis?
Long Yi looked at Boris’s expression and then glanced at Mina beside him.
Clearly, this was indeed a major crisis.
But at this moment, Mina stood up by herself.
"Actually, I’ve already figured it out," Mina said.
