Chapter 1185: Chapter 551: Echoes_2
With Tang Ling, it might become: "Asking for a husband day by day..."
The rest is unspeakable, but those who understand, understand.
After all, she can fight extraordinarily well.
Of course, ten years ago, Su Youzhu could summon the shadow of the Candle Dragon, and thus the You Ying Group submitted to her, leading to the birth of the new Red King, who shook the Dark World.
The process was extremely smooth.
It didn’t even require physical action, just letting the shadow show up for a stroll was enough.
Especially when they fought side by side, the power of the shadows further sublimated.
Just by capturing Xia Zhi, the mascot, they could manifest the ultimate power of the Qilin.
Qilin Venerable, Candle Light God limited edition.
That was the gift Gu Jianlin left for them before falling unconscious.
Even in slumber, his power continues to protect them as always.
During these ten years, Thunder and Moon Princess became close friends in adversity.
Competing has no meaning since the boy they like is half-dead.
They might as well live together and look after each other.
Playing games to relieve boredom isn’t so bad either.
Gu Jianlin is right by their side.
Even asleep, it’s no different than when he was awake.
It’s just that he cannot speak and dislikes moving.
After all, when he was awake, he didn’t talk much either.
As for whether he moves or not, it’s irrelevant.
They can move.
"Bai Ze and Xuanming have no way to awaken him?"
Su Youzhu sipped her coffee, spinning in her gaming chair with her slender legs swaying.
"No."
Tang Ling had already laid on the bed, casually propping her head with her right hand, gazing at the man’s sleeping face, a strand of red hair brushing across his face: "But They promised to find me a sword."
Su Youzhu thought about her lack of a weapon and felt relieved the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword had no limitations.
"Mr. Jing is about to wake up."
Tang Ling suddenly said: "If we are absent, he can uphold this world."
Su Youzhu’s cold eyes flickered brightly: "So soon?"
Tang Ling recounted the Supreme’s words, softly saying: "I must say, Mr. Jing is inexplicably strong. I think he is also adapting to the new rules."
Su Youzhu’s eyes flickered: "Then... shall we act?"
Tang Ling knew the woman’s thoughts because she herself thought the same.
The decisive battle facing Fusang Divine Palace was supposed to be a matter for all of humanity.
But they plan to explore it secretly, away from the world.
The current Thunder and Moon Princess possess power enough to shake both realms, even able to resurrect Candle Light God’s mighty power with the mascot, so there’s no need to drag the entire world into it.
If they won, it would be ideal.
If they lost, more people would be of no help, akin to moths to a flame.
Moreover, they couldn’t possibly lose that badly.
At least they would kill all the Human World’s defectors.
They might even force the Vermilion Bird Venerate into ten thousand years of slumber.
As for those defectors of the Human World, they are already inconsequential in their eyes.
Gold and Silver, after defecting to the Vermilion Bird Clan, have been hiding in the depths of Fusang Divine Palace, not daring to come out, not having set foot in the real world for the past ten years, because they knew if they entered the world, they would inevitably face endless pursuits, leading to certain death.
Well, they can no longer be called Gold and Silver.
Because their titles have been revoked.
Now the Vermilion Bird Clan should have given them new names, under the banner of the Ancient God Clan.
But unfortunately, times have changed.
Now is the era of humanity.
Also, the most powerful era for humanity.
Talents are emerging in an endless stream, and the number of Demigod Domain experts has reached historical peaks.
In the Order World, Ying Changsheng and Jiang Ziyue have respectively inherited the titles of Gold and Silver, Lu Zijin masters the Dawn Combat Sequence, Chen Bojun holds the fort at the Central Spirit Core Institute.
These are the four Demigod Level entities.
Not to mention Zi You at Peak City Zhanshan Temple, Lin Dong and Rhein.
Six Demigod Level entities.
If Commander Lu hadn’t passed away, it would be seven Demigod Level entities.
Moon Princess and Thunder possess Quasi-Supreme Level combat power, and merely borrowing the legacy of the Qilin to engage in cordial and friendly discussions with the Demigods from various countries around the world, they could gather another wave of Demigods.
Ying Ye and Ying Yu would die without a doubt if they emerged.
Of course, there’s also that damned Platinum, this old fellow has turned into a coward.
On the contrary, Mu Shiyu, that woman, is now quite active in the Vermilion Bird Clan.
"Set the time for seven days later, besides, I have another thing I want to confirm. In the Dark World, there’s really no news of the previous Red King? He just disappeared?" Tang Ling raised her meticulously drawn eyebrows, her rose-red eyes unabashedly conveying her suspicion.
"I can’t find him either; since that battle, he’s vanished from the world."
Su Youzhu shook her head slightly: "That woman can’t find him either."
"I always felt the King of Qing and the Red King were not so simple."
Tang Ling murmured softly: "Unfortunately, there’s no time to concern ourselves with them."
Dong dong.
The Ancient Bell echoed like thunder, reverberating in the silence.
This is a sound only Ascenders at Demigod Level and above can hear.
Once during Qing and Chi’s journey into the universe’s Deep Space, they recorded such a sound, a mystery yet unresolved in the Extraordinary World.
No one knows what its true meaning is.
After the battle at Gangrenboqi ended ten years ago, this sound became audible on Earth as well.
Like someone furiously pounding on something.
It has echoed for a full ten years.
Thunder and Moon Princess had tried to investigate the meaning of this sound but could never find clues.
Now, they’ve long accustomed themselves to the accompaniment of this sound, as it’s not particularly frightening, after listening for a long time it’s like a lullaby, inexplicably comforting.
A long time passed.
Tang Ling raised her beautiful eyes and asked: "I heard you killed the Ghost Car?"
Su Youzhu nodded once.
Tang Ling hesitated for a moment: "Did It... appear?"
Su Youzhu’s gaze turned frosty: "If It had appeared, I would probably still be in Fengdu. Over ten years, It’s gotten increasingly bizarre, difficult to understand."
"Grandmaster once said, new rules have emerged. Vermilion Bird is indeed worthy of its name; at least its boldness is genuinely admirable. No one expected It would hide You Ying’s corpse secretly. Otherwise, Bai Ze and Xuanming would definitely join the battle. According to the two Supremes, They are indeed affiliates of You Ying, Their combat power wouldn’t be restricted. But They are worried, Their existence might revive a Mother God destined to die. As so far, no one can decode the full spectrum of the new rules."
Tang Ling gently covered the boy’s ears, her gaze growing profound: "The last time I had a showdown with It, It was already very bizarre. Though It had attained the Third Law’s Supreme, I sensed no humanity in It, only felt faced a foul Evil Spirit."
"Later, I made Lin Zhengchun of Laojun Mountain predict."
She paused: "The old fool said he saw a Vermilion Bird gnawing on a corpse."
Su Youzhu squinted her beautiful eyes: "You Ying’s corpse?"
Tang Ling replied softly: "He said it’s a woman’s corpse."
Su Youzhu felt a cold shiver, indeed too bizarre.
Hard to imagine, it was once their teacher they lived with day in and day out for ten years, now transformed into an utterly unfamiliar person and becoming so frantic and malevolent.
Reflecting on past experiences feels like a dream shattering.
"Based on subsequent predictions and investigations, Vermilion Bird indeed lost its sanity in the Gangrenboqi battle, which is exceedingly unusual for a Supreme."
Tang Ling said quietly: "No one knows why Vermilion Bird went insane, maybe because the Primordial was usurped, or perhaps due to its sister’s betrayal, or realization of new rules? It can’t possibly care about Aunt Shi’s departure, It doesn’t mind at all."
If Liu Li were present, she might provide more logical analyses.
But their conversation tonight was top secret.
Absolutely won’t be disclosed to anyone.
After a long silence, Su Youzhu shook her head.
"I don’t care about Its thoughts."
She enunciated: "I just want It dead."
