Chapter 213 The Kingdom of God on the Sea
“Perhaps,” Ling Yi looked down at her, “but you can’t see it.”
Yun'er struggled to crawl away, and Ling Yi watched quietly until Yun'er stopped moving. Only then did Ling Yi bend down and take the fragment of the Spirit-Nourishing Pearl from her body.
The fragments transformed into tiny specks of light in Ling Yi's hand and disappeared.
At the same time, another section of the Heavenly Mandate Spirit Pearl Diagram lit up; only one more pearl was needed to illuminate the entire diagram.
"boom"
As Yun'er died, the ice barrier she had created began to shatter, and those who had been blocked outside rushed in immediately.
"Your Highness?"
"His Royal Highness?"
The people who broke in were the same people who had brought Ling Yi and the others here. They had been sent away by the Crown Prince and were therefore not within the barrier's range.
They were responsible for protecting the crown prince, and if anything happened to him, they would be held accountable. However, they had been unable to enter due to the barrier and could only worry from the outside. Now that they were finally able to enter, they looked around but could not see the crown prince.
After seeing Elder Changyun's body, the captain turned to Ling Yi and his group and asked, "Did you kill the Crown Prince?"
Ling Yi didn't even look at the captain, walked back to Ji Yanzhi's side, and pushed the wheelchair out: "It's time to go to the next place."
Seeing that they were about to leave, the captain gave a gesture, and the others immediately stepped forward and surrounded them.
"You killed the prince, don't even think about leaving!" The captain looked at the others: "Tie them up."
"Don't get involved." Ling Yi ignored him and the one who spoke up was Ye Qingshuang: "We didn't kill your crown prince. See that woman on the ground?"
“She killed your crown prince. By killing her, we have essentially avenged your crown prince. If you want to know what happened, I suggest you capture the other two people and ask them.” Ye Qingshuang said, “What happened at the Imperial Academy is also related to them. Don’t come looking for us.”
After saying that, Ye Qingshuang followed the group and left.
This time, the captain didn't have anyone stop him. He glanced at the woman on the ground, then ordered someone to take away the unconscious Elder Changyun and Teacher Yuan.
The captain had just finished making arrangements when he received a call from the palace saying that something had happened at the Imperial Academy and His Majesty could not reach His Highness, so he was asked to tell His Highness to return to the academy immediately.
Looking at the main hall reduced to ruins, and recalling Ye Qingshuang's words, the captain recounted the situation to the person who had contacted him.
The person in charge of contacting the team leader felt as if the sky had fallen upon hearing this, and immediately reported the matter to Emperor Cangxue.
Upon learning of this, Emperor Cangxue ordered the captain to personally lead his men back to the palace, leaving subordinates to search for the crown prince's body, and simultaneously issued an arrest warrant for Ling Yi and his group.
...
By the time the wanted notice from the Cangxue Empire spread to every city, Ling Yi and his group had already left the Cangxue Empire and headed for the Bairi Empire.
On the back of the little golden tiger, Lin Xinze stared at the little mermaid in the basin for a while before speaking: "Little sister, Xiao Zhou has grown a bit."
"Hmm." Ling Yi responded, "It is indeed bigger, but not big enough."
Jin Zhou's appearance was too special. She was much smaller than a normal baby when she came out of Sheng Jiao's belly. After Ling Yi discovered that Jin Zhou liked her blood, she tried to feed her with blood. However, she was a person and could not provide Jin Zhou with blood every day like she would with milk.
If we can't use blood, then we can only use all sorts of edible natural treasures.
The Demon Insect wasn't exactly a rare treasure, but Yun'er used it to absorb the power of so many people, and as it grew, it became a kind of tonic.
"This is so inconvenient." Ye Qingshuang frowned as she looked at the sleeping little mermaid. "The further we go, the more troublesome her current form becomes. When will she be able to turn her fishtail into legs?"
Ling Yi said, "It'll be soon."
Ye Qingshuang stopped asking about that matter and instead started talking to Ling Yi about something else: "Ling Yi, Bai Ri was the last empire we visited in Qizhou. After Bai Ri, where do you plan to go?"
"I don't know," Ling Yi said. "We'll see when the time comes."
Ye Qingshuang did not ask any further questions.
Ten days later, the group arrived at the border of Bai Ri. The group originally planned to stay at the border for a day to inquire about some news. However, upon arriving at the border, before they could even inquire, they heard something.
"A divine kingdom on the sea?" Bai Jiu's tone was full of doubt. "What kind of place is that?"
“It’s over…” Ye Qingshuang murmured, looking at Ji Yanzhi: “Do you have any suggestions?”
Ji Yanzhi glanced at her but didn't say anything.
Ling Yi looked at Ye Qing Shuang: "You know about the Sea God Kingdom?"
Ye Qingshuang raised her hand to her forehead: "I know, the Sea Divine Kingdom is the name of a secret realm that opens once every thousand years, each opening lasting for one year. It contains countless rare and precious treasures and is a secret realm that all the descendants of gods go to, but..."
Seeing Ye Qingshuang hesitate, Ling Yi asked, "But what?"
Ye Qingshuang glanced at Ji Yanzhi again, and seeing that Ji Yanzhi had no intention of responding, she had no choice but to say, "There are two questions about the Sea Kingdom."
"The first question is that the Sea God Kingdom has always been opened in the Longevity Sea, and has never been opened in the sea areas of the Nine Domains and Eighteen Continents."
"The second question is that although it is said that the Sea God Kingdom opens once every thousand years, after the gods disappeared, the Sea God Kingdom broke the rule of appearing once every thousand years. This appearance is the first time the Sea God Kingdom has appeared since the gods disappeared."
“The divine kingdom on the sea, the sea of immortality, the gods…” Ling Yi lowered his eyes and looked at the golden daylight in the basin of water.
Ye Qingshuang followed Ling Yi's gaze and her eyes fell on Jin Zhou.
Ye Qingshuang didn't know Jin Zhou's identity, only that she found it troublesome that she was a mermaid, but... Ji Yanzhi definitely knew!
Ji Yanzhi must have told Ling Yi, right?
Ye Qingshuang, being a bit gossipy, asked indirectly, "Ling Yi, why are you looking at Xiao Zhou?"
That's right, Ji Yanzhi only told Ling Yi the name Jin Zhou. Since Jin Zhou himself didn't acknowledge the name, Ling Yi later told them to name the little mermaid Xiao Zhou.
Ling Yi said, "I was just wondering if Xiao Zhou, being special, might know about the Sea God Kingdom?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingshuang looked at Xiao Zhou and fell into deep thought.
There was no such little mermaid in the past.
The Mountain and River Mirror is also...
There is no Mountain and River Mirror in the past. Ye Qingshuang looked at Ji Yanzhi. When Ling Yi disappeared, she found Tian Yan and asked him where Ling Yi had gone. Tian Yan only said that he had started over, but he never said anything else.
Tianyan is the messenger of destiny; if he doesn't say it, no one can get it out of him. Besides, she only cares about Lingyi and doesn't pay much attention to others, so she didn't press him for details. She only asked Tianyan to send her to Lingyi's side.
Now that they've actually encountered it, Ye Qingshuang is dumbfounded.
“It’s alright if you don’t know.” In the silence, Ling Yi spoke up: “Since it’s a secret realm, let’s go take a look.”
“But…” Ye Qingshuang did not want Ling Yi to go, because the divine descendants would also go, and it would be too dangerous for them to encounter the divine descendants now.
Ling Yi knew Ye Qingshuang's concerns and looked at her, saying, "We have already left Yunzhou."
