Chapter 1685 – Yao Chi’s Rebellion
The moment they heard those words, the entire carriage fell into a dead silence.
Chloe: (||? ?Д???) !
Lin Qiye: ∑(O_O;)?
”No!!!”
”No!!!”
The two said in unison.
Their intense reaction startled Calan, and Chloe immediately spoke up:
”Don’t misunderstand! We’re just partners! I’m just doing him some favors!”
”That’s right, you’re overthinking it, Calan.”
”Oh …… so?” Calan nodded blankly, “I’m sorry, I was reckless ……”
”It’s fine ……” Lin Qiye sighed in relief and pointed to the seat beside him, “Sit over here.”
”No, I’ll just sit here.”
”……”
The corners of Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched slightly.
Seeing that Jia Lan was unwilling to change his position again, Lin Qiye didn’t force …… After all, no matter what the future holds, right now they’re just strangers meeting for the first time, and if people are willing to sit in the corner, he can’t forcefully tie them to his side.
Chloe looked at the Yan Zhong who was squeezed into the corner by himself, and then looked at the empty position beside himself, for a moment, sitting back is not, not sitting back is not …… caught in a kind of inexplicable stalemate.
The atmosphere in the carriage, suddenly silent.
In the end, it was Caran who took the initiative to break this weird silence.
”By the way, where are you guys going?”
”Same as you, to Yao Chi.”
”Yaochi?”
Hearing those two words, Calan first froze, and shook his head decisively, and
”You guys can’t go, at least not in these two days.”
”Why?”
Calan opened his mouth as if hesitating, and after a moment, he still opened his mouth:
”The current Yao Chi is very chaotic …… If you guys go, you will only add to the niangiang’s annoyance, and I’m afraid that your lives are still in danger.”
Lin Qiye and the others looked at each other.
”Chaos?”
”A kind of smoke has enveloped the entire Kunlun Void, from the guests down to the heavenly soldiers and attendants, everyone in Yaochi is confused, and the Queen Mother is no exception …… I escaped from there.”
Sure enough.
The real Kusun body had long since set its sights on the Great Summer God.
Hearing this, Lin Qiye knew that he had guessed correctly, and he hurriedly asked:
”When was this?”
”Six days ago.”
”So, the entire Yao Chi has fallen? And how did you escape?” Yan Zhong asked curiously.
Jia Lan was silent for a moment, but still said, “When the Queen Mother first discovered the end, only I and another maid, Jiang Zhu, had been serving the Queen Mother, so only the three of us in the entire Yao Chi were completely trustworthy ……
After that, as if she had guessed something, the Empress Mother directly took my sister Jiang Zhu and I into the dan room, and handed over the Eternal Life Dan Pot and the Immortality Dan Pot to the two of us respectively, telling us to make sure to protect them, and that if someone grabbed them by force, even if they were destroyed, they couldn’t fall into someone else’s hands, and they couldn’t be stolen because these two pills wouldn’t disappear even if they were in the stomach, and that they could still be taken out as long as the person was incinerated into ashes.
After that, she used a secret method to send us directly out of Yao Chi, and agreed to go back ten days later, saying that within ten days, she would surely resolve everything.
After leaving Yao Chi, in order to spread out the risk, sister Jiang Zhu and I split up, she went to the other side of the Magadha Kingdom, while I entered the Great Han Dynasty.
Within these six days, I went incognito and hid in different places …… But every two days, there was always a group of monsters that could find me, and each time the number of monsters got bigger and bigger, the first time it was just a few dozen, and the second time there were hundreds of them.
I ran out of strength and was seriously injured, I barely escaped from the second attack, and then when my strength ran out, I fainted in the middle of the snow, and when I woke up, I was sent into Castle Peak County ……”
Hearing this, Lin Qiye roughly understood the cause and effect of the incident.
After the Queen Mother of the West found out that Yao Chi was attacked, her first reaction was to send the Eternal Life Dan and Immortality Dan to the earth, which was enough to show the importance of these two items, and the people in Yao Chi afterward were so genuine that it was hard to tell if they were fake or not, and except for Jialan, Jiang Zhu, and the Queen Mother of the West, everyone else should have been unaware that these two pots of pills were no longer in Yao Chi.
The current situation is that Lin Qiye has already given the immortality elixir to Jia Lan to eat, and trying to deliver it is probably impossible……. After returning to Yao Chi, the Queen Mother of the West won’t really want to burn Jia Lan and take the immortality elixir in her body, right?
If that was the case, whether it was from a personal emotional aspect or a karmic shift, Lin Qiye couldn’t possibly let this happen.
”Sounds like a lot of trouble ah ……,” Yan Zhong looked at Lin Qiye thoughtfully, “Are you sure?”
”Yes.” Lin Qiye spoke calmly, “With my ability, I can tell the difference between the real and the fake, so as long as we intervene, we can solve a lot of difficulties.”
”You guys are still going to Yao Chi?” Seeing that his words didn’t dissuade the crowd, Jia Lan hurriedly spoke, “It won’t work, you guys are only humans after all, when the smoke shrouded the Kunlun Void, there were still several main gods as guests in Yao Chi, plus the Queen Mother …… You guys are going to send yourselves to death!
It’s better to follow the Queen Mother’s instructions and go in after four days.”
”Don’t worry, Miss Caran.” Chloe smiled, “We have experience in dealing with that thing, and …… we are also very strong.”
”However, we’re still at least two days away from the Kunlun Mountains, so by the time we get there, maybe it’ll all be over?” Hu Jia asked.
Lin Qiye frowned and pondered.
The ten day period agreed upon by the Queen Mother of the West should be the longest time needed to pacify Yao Chi, and if they wanted to help, they’d better get to Yao Chi as soon as possible to do so.
His gaze fell on the carriage in front of him through the lifted curtain.
Noticing Lin Qiye’s gaze, Chloe and the others shivered violently and asked tentatively:
”You shouldn’t ……”
”It can only be so.” Lin Qiye comforted, “Everyone endure, we’ll be there soon.”
The faces of the crowd instantly turned ironic, only Jia Lan was still sitting blankly in the corner, not knowing what was going on.
Lin Qiye called a halt to the carriage and went up to Huo Zhaoyi’s carriage to say something, then they unloaded the horses that had just been replaced in front of the carriage straight away, leaving only the two carriages, parked alone on top of the wilderness.
”What is this for?” Yan Zhong asked in disbelief when he saw that the horses he had managed to buy were just let go.
Lin Qiye patted his shoulder and said meaningfully:
”We’re afraid that the horses won’t be able to stand …… flying at high altitudes at this temperature, and without waiting until the Kunlun Mountains, they’ll freeze to death, so instead of doing that, it’s better to just release them.”
”…… They will freeze to death, what about us?”
Lin Qiye smiled without saying anything.
Dang-!
Under the power of the dominant emperor, the two carriages catapulted up from the earth at an astonishing speed and disappeared at the end of the clouds accompanied by a mournful scream.
