1876 Southern Capital City (1)
"He will be fine for now." Lin Yitong's voice suddenly echoed as she walked over. "They will likely gather more powerful souls before sacrificing them altogether."
"Furthermore, even if they don't use this method, the Netherworld will eventually reestablish connections with the outside worlds on its own."
Jin Huian felt a little relieved when she heard this. However, the anxiety in her heart didn't diminish in the slightest.
Yun Lintian touched his chin and said. "I feel like their goal is something else. For example, reviving the God of Death."
"It's possible." Lin Yitong looked at Yun Lintian and said. "I thought you would be more cautious."
She could see that one-third of Lan Qinghe's power over Yun Lintian's body had disappeared.
Yun Lintian touched his nose in embarrassment. "It can't be helped. I didn't expect the Flower Ghost Queen to be faster than me."
"It looks like you have been living too comfortably." Lin Yitong said with a faint smile, but it made Yun Lintian shudder.
Yun Lintian wiped the imaginary sweat off his forehead and said. "I will be more careful."
He felt that Lin Yitong might attack him at any moment.
"You mentioned that Yun Tian had crossed the Bridge of Oblivion. Are you planning to go there?" Jin Huian asked an obvious question.
"Yes." Yun Lintian shared his thoughts. "If I were him, I wouldn't place the Tower of Fate in plain sight. The Bridge of Oblivion is certainly the ideal location to prevent people from finding the tower. Not to mention, he is the only one who can cross the bridge to reach the end."
"The problem is, I don't believe those five emperors are unaware of its existence. However, I don't understand why they allowed the so-called four great sects and the twelve clans to enter the bridge. Letting these people try their luck?"
Jin Huian fell into deep thought. What Yun Lintian said did indeed make sense. If she were one of the five emperors and learned about the Tower of Fate, she wouldn't allow others to approach it.
"Unless it's useless to them." Lin Yitong spoke. "It's also possible that they are waiting for another Yun Tian to show up."
"This could be a trap." Jin Huian said with a solemn expression.
Yun Lintian rubbed his chin. "It's a trap that I cannot avoid either."
Everyone fell silent.
A moment later, Yun Lintian said. "I don't have a choice here, anyway. I must go there, but first, I will try to gather as much information as possible."
Lin Yitong and Jin Huian had no objections. They wished they could accompany Yun Lintian.
"Senior Lan said that the God of Death's body was divided into several parts and fell to various places around the Primal Chaos. I believe that there are some of them in the Netherworld. The one likely to have it in his hands is naturally the so-called Death God." Yun Lintian analyzed.
"What concerns me is the possibility of him noticing the God of Death's heart. It will be a hidden danger."
"Qinghe and I have already sealed it away. Unless there is an unforeseen circumstance, it is very difficult to locate it." Lin Yitong spoke. With the combined powers of the two true gods, it would be a miracle for anyone to notice the existence of the God of Death's heart.
Yun Lintian let out a long sigh. "Perhaps we can find the answer at the Tower of Fate."
At that moment, Zhang Yu approached everyone with Gui Xuan in her arms and asked with dissatisfaction. "Are you leaving now? Can't you stay longer?"
Yun Lintian shook his head. "No time now."
Gui Xuan jumped out of Zhang Yu's embrace and into Yun Lintian's arms. "Go... Go."
Zhang Yu glared at Yun Lintian with jealousy. She could see that Gui Xuan had become dependent on Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian waved his hand to alter his and Gui Xuan's appearance. They looked even more horrifying than the lowest-
level ghosts he had seen before.
"I'll leave first." Yun Lintian said calmly as he walked through the gate.
"The Bridge of Oblivion…" Jin Huian frowned deeply. Even though she was confident in Yun Lintian, it was uncertain whether he could gain entry to that place.
"Since Yun Tian was able to enter the bridge without any problems, he would be fine too." Lin Yitong said calmly. Leaving the Tower of Fate there would be pointless if Yun Lintian couldn't reach it.
"I hope so." Jin Huian sighed softly. She was truly concerned about both Yun Lintian and Master Bai.
Yun Lintian returned to the Netherworld and checked the surroundings before removing the concealment formation.
Without hesitation, he raced toward the capital city at full speed.
***
The Qing Clan manor was situated on the western side of the Southern Capital City. Its territory covered more than five thousand square kilometers.
At this moment, Qing Mengmeng and Old Man Tang finally arrived at the manor with Ji Daiyu in their hands.
"Young miss!" A guard immediately saluted when he saw them.
"Where is my father?" Qing Mengmeng quickly asked.
"The patriarch is currently holding a meeting in the main hall." The guard replied.
"Thank you." Qing Mengmeng said and quickly headed to the main hall.
Inside the main hall, several people gathered to discuss something serious.
"Who should we send to the bridge this time, patriarch?" An old man spoke. He was the first elder of the Qing Clan.
All eyes in the hall were fixed on a dignified middle-aged man seated in the main seat. He was the current patriarch of the Qing Clan, Qing Heng.
Qing Heng wore a solemn expression. The Qing Clan's quotas were reduced to one due to his neglect, and he had to take responsibility for it. Therefore, it was impossible for him to send his son to the Bridge of Oblivion this time.
As he was about to say something, Qing Mengmeng and Old Man Tang walked into the main hall. Their arrival immediately captured everyone's attention.
"Father, we're back. Look at what we've got." Qing Mengmeng said with a smile while Old Man Tang pulled Ji Daiyu over.
lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Qing Heng didn't even glance at Ji Daiyu. His eyes brimmed with anger as he spoke. "Do you know your crime?"
Qing Mengmeng bit her lip and said. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't sneak out."
Qing Heng wanted to scold her further but ultimately gave up. He shifted his gaze to Ji Daiyu and asked. "How did you capture him?"
