"You're saying Jian San Xiao is back, and Ji Ning went alone to distract Jian San Xiao to save you?"
Ye Ling confirmed with Mie Shi Ling Huo after hearing the whole story.
"That's right, kid... Ji Ning was brought back by you, and Jian San Xiao's problem was caused by you and Ji Ning together. You have to take responsibility for this, right?" Mie Shi Ling Huo said to Ye Ling.
Tian Xing sized up Ye Ling and asked, "All the powerful strength on your body has disappeared? Have you dealt with Tian Ming?"
"Yes, 'E' appeared and took Tian Ming away," Ye Ling nodded.
"Did 'E' ascend to the Upper Realm?" Mie Shi Ling Huo's eyes lit up upon hearing Ye Ling's words. "Then hurry up and ask 'E' for help, let him deal with Jian San Xiao!"
"He probably won't deal with such a minor character," Ye Ling smiled and shook his head.
"Then what should we do now?" Tian Xing frowned. "Ji Ning sacrificed herself to save us this time, we can't just stand by, can we?"
"Things are probably not as simple as you think, don't rush," Ye Ling appeased Mie Shi Ling Huo and Tian Xing, his tone devoid of any hurry or panic.
"From what I know of Ji Ning, she's a selfish person. If she confirmed that I had lost to Tian Ming and couldn't return, she wouldn't have sacrificed herself alone to save you two," Ye Ling explained.
"Kid, are you saying Ji Ning leaving alone this time wasn't to attract Jian San Xiao's attention?" Mie Shi Ling Huo asked in surprise.
"Yes," Ye Ling nodded. "She probably wanted to escape alone. She asked you to revive me with my residual soul and life essence, probably just wanting us to be her scapegoats." Da Feng Novel Network
"After all, it's spread in the Dao Sect that I killed Jian Shi San, and Ji Ning is innocent... Even if she's caught by Jian San Xiao, she can completely shift the blame to us."
After hearing Ye Ling's analysis, Mie Shi Ling Huo's expression turned grim, and he cursed, "Damn it! I was almost tricked by that bad woman again! Tian Xing was so stupid as to sacrifice herself to save her!"
Hearing Mie Shi Ling Huo's words, Ye Ling smiled and shook his head, saying to Tian Xing, "You silly girl, how could you believe Ji Ning's words?"
Tian Xing said, "Didn't you bring her back? I thought she was trustworthy..."
"Actually... I was coerced by Ni," Ye Ling replied somewhat awkwardly. "At that time, I was fighting for control of my body with Tian Ming, and Ji Ning completely took advantage of the situation... There's no emotional foundation between her and me, at best we were allies against Zhou Wen."
"Coerced by Ni... coerced by Ni..." Tian Xing was stunned upon hearing Ye Ling's answer, as if her worldview had collapsed.
She never expected the relationship between Ye Ling and Ji Ning to be like this!
Suddenly, Tian Xing clenched her fists and said angrily, "No! Ji Ning is absolutely unforgivable! She took such a huge advantage of you!"
"Why do I feel like Ye Ling is the one who got the advantage?" Mie Shi Ling Huo said sourly.
Ever since he followed Ye Ling and could transform into human form, all the girls he encountered were infatuated with Ye Ling, which made him, a single dog who had been alone for ten thousand years, extremely unbalanced.
Ye Ling smiled and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about what happened before. Ji Ning will definitely be fine. We're in Mo Zhou, let's go and do our main business first."
"Main business?" Hearing Ye Ling say this, Tian Xing and Mie Shi Ling Huo were stunned again.
"Isn't Shang Qing Palace in Mo Zhou? We haven't done what we promised Bai Qing yet, let's go and destroy Shang Qing Palace first," Ye Ling said casually, as if he were talking about what to eat for lunch.
"Kid, after losing Tian Ming, you are clearly the weakest among us, why do I feel like you're bursting with confidence?" Mie Shi Ling Huo teased upon hearing Ye Ling's nonchalant tone.
"The charged cheat code has arrived," Ye Ling smiled.
"So you're playing a game, you brat!" Mie Shi Ling Huo complained.
"Alright, you two stop bickering..." Tian Xing interrupted Ye Ling and Mie Shi Ling Huo. "Speaking of Bai Qing, hasn't Xuan Yu been gone for a long time?"
"Indeed..." Mentioning Xuan Yu, Ye Ling's expression became solemn again. "Although she has half a Zhen Shi Pearl with her, I'm still a bit worried about her safety..."
"After we deal with Shang Qing Palace, let's go find Xuan Yu first..."
Before, he always thought that the Zhen Shi Pearl was invincible, and there was no existence in the Upper Realm that could contend with it. But after the half Zhen Shi Pearl on his body was destroyed on Tian Yun Island, he realized... the dangers hidden in the Upper Realm were far beyond his imagination.
Even those dangers were not just hidden in the Upper Realm!
They might also be hidden in various Lower Realms.
Xuan Yu had been gone for so long, it was likely she had fallen into some great trouble.
And trouble that could keep both Xuan Yu and Bai Qing tied up...
Ye Ling couldn't help but think of those eyes.
'Could it be related to those things?'
Ye Ling thought of the eyes he saw in the Book of Origin again, and his mood became solemn once more.
Boom!!!
Just as Ye Ling was thinking, the barrier covering the oasis was suddenly heavily struck, and a golden giant sword easily pierced the barrier, cutting through the land!
"Enemy attack?"
Mie Shi Ling Huo and Tian Xing's expressions changed drastically upon seeing the golden giant sword that suddenly attacked!
The barrier they had painstakingly constructed with their spiritual energy was easily cut open. A white-haired youth, with his hands behind his back and a cold expression, stood in the void, staring directly at Ye Ling, Mie Shi Ling Huo, and Tian Xing in the barrier.
"Who among you is Ye Ling?"
The white-haired youth asked coldly, his deep voice echoing in the sky like thunder from the nine heavens, making everyone's eardrums ache.
"Jian San Xiao?"
Mie Shi Ling Huo's eyes changed slightly upon seeing the terrifying aura emanating from the white-haired youth, and then he angrily said, "Damn it, that bad woman Ji Ning really sold us out!"
Tian Xing sensed Jian San Xiao's pressure, and her expression also changed slightly. She immediately stood in front of Ye Ling and Mie Shi Ling Huo and quickly said, "Mie Shi Ling Huo, you take Ye Ling and leave first, I'll stop him!"
"Tian Xing, step back." At this moment, Ye Ling's faint voice reached Tian Xing's ears, making Tian Xing stunned.
"Ye Ling?" Tian Xing looked at Ye Ling in surprise, not understanding what Ye Ling was going to do.
"Since coming to the Upper Realm, you've been injured for me many times... You're either seriously injured or on your way to being seriously injured... You've had a hard time these days."
"We agreed that I would protect you in the Upper Realm."
As Ye Ling spoke, he instantly moved in front of Tian Xing, and dark chains condensed around him, swaying in the wind.
"Ye Ling..." Tian Xing stared blankly at Ye Ling's back at this moment, and was stunned.
Although Ye Ling was still in the Wu Wo Realm and was a Creation God, she felt an unparalleled sense of security from Ye Ling at this moment!
Ye Ling looked at Jian San Xiao in front of him, a subtle curve at the corner of his mouth.
He smiled at Tian Xing and Mie Shi Ling Huo and said, "Leave this guy to me."
