Chapter 540 Let Qingyu deal with Ling 1
Under normal circumstances, this method is still risky, since there will be residual power, which the divine descendants will discover upon careful inspection. However, there is a solution: simply cover it with even stronger power.
Ling Yi's demonic energy and the power of all living beings can cover it up.
“Alright.” Ji Yanzhi nodded: “Let’s do it this way.”
After discussing the plan, Lingyi glanced around. She had killed the guards of the barrier, and the others couldn't be contacted. They would probably come looking for her soon. If she stayed here, she could still pick up some useful people, but this place wasn't suitable for luring those divine descendants. She had to find another place.
The number of people is important, but clearing the silt is more important right now. After thinking it over, Ling Yi left with Ji Yanzhi.
...
Two days later, at the Phoenix Domain Central Plaza.
The Great Domain Lord and his subordinates waited there. About fifteen minutes later, the teleportation array in the center of the square began to flash with spiritual light. When the light faded, a white-haired, blue-eyed man and a woman led a group of divine descendants out of the teleportation array.
Upon seeing the newcomer, the Great Domain Lord hurriedly led his subordinates to greet him, and respectfully addressed the white-haired man at the front, saying, "Cangyang, the Domain Lord of Phoenix Domain, greets His Highness the Divine Son and His Majesty the Divine Lord. May His Highness the Divine Son be well and His Majesty the Divine Lord be well."
Bai Qingjue looked at Cangyang and asked directly, "Where is that demon?"
After Bai Qingjue left Bailing Mountain, Qingyu was always by his side, so he couldn't contact Tianyan to ask about their location and plans. He could only ask Cangyang and the others about their whereabouts.
Upon hearing Bai Qingjue's question, Cang Yang hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, that demon appeared in the southern outer city two days ago. After killing the guards of the barrier, he disappeared without a trace and has not been found yet."
"Still not found?" Qingyu, standing next to Bai Qingjue, chuckled mockingly upon hearing this. "Not only did a demon kill two domain lords, but now we don't even know where that demon is. The resources bestowed by the Divine Kingdom have only been used to support trash like you. You're utterly useless!"
Qingyu's words were extremely humiliating. Cangyang lowered his head, his expression very unpleasant. However, Qingyu was a God Lord, whose strength and status were above his own, so he could only endure it no matter how displeased he was: "The God Lord's reprimand is correct. After this matter is resolved, I will definitely strengthen the defenses of Phoenix Domain and the training of the soldiers."
Faced with the humiliation of clearing away silt, even the Great Domain Lord could only admit his mistake, and his other subordinates dared not utter a sound.
Qingyu coldly looked at Cangyang: "If you can't manage the Phoenix Domain, I can have someone else replace you."
Upon hearing this, Cangyang's face paled slightly, and he hurriedly replied, "Your subordinate will certainly do his best."
Bai Qingjue watched the scene unfold coldly without uttering a word. Only after clearing the mud and reprimanding Cangyang did Bai Qingjue speak: "Is there anything related to that demon?"
"As long as there is something related to that demon, we can find that demon."
Upon hearing this, Cang Yang turned to one of his subordinates, who stepped forward carrying a box. Cang Yang opened the box, took out the porcelain bottle inside, and presented it to Bai Qingjue with both hands: "Your Highness, the demon's poison can turn a person into a pool of black water. This porcelain bottle contains that black water. Will it be of any use?"
Upon hearing the phrase "can turn a person into a pool of black water," Bai Qingjue's gaze darkened. He had seen this move several times when he was with Ling Yi, but at that time, the victims were all ordinary cultivators. He thought they were too weak to withstand it, but he did not expect that even a descendant of a god could not withstand it.
Thinking of this, Bai Qingjue reached out and took the porcelain bottle: "It can be used."
Hearing that it was usable, Cangyang breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that it works."
If he can use it, he can find that demon sooner and deal with it sooner, so he won't have to see these divine descendants every few days like he does now.
Bai Qingjue opened the porcelain bottle and used his power to draw out the black water inside. He then raised his hand to form a seal, guiding the black water into the completed seal. The seal's power catalyzed the black water into wisps of mist. The mist passed through the seal and flew into a puppet bird handed over by a divine descendant behind him. Once the mist had completely entered the puppet bird's body, the puppet bird moved, flapping its wings and flying in a certain direction.
Seeing this, Qingyu, without waiting for Bai Qingjue to speak, instructed the divine descendants: "Follow them."
"Yes." The divine descendants accepted the order and followed the puppet bird.
Bai Qingjue turned her head to look at Qingyu: "They are no match for that demon. Sending them to follow the puppet bird is no different from sending them to their deaths."
The silt-clearing worker said nonchalantly, "What could possibly happen in such a short time?"
"I don't care if something happens, I only care about what you promised." Bai Qingjue looked at Qingyu: "Don't forget why I asked you to come here."
Qingyu glanced at Cangyang and the others: "Leave the matter of dealing with that demon to us, you can go back."
Upon hearing this, Cang Yang knew that Qing Yu and Bai Qingjue had something to say. After responding, he left with his subordinates.
After Cangyang and the others left, Qingyu looked at Bai Qingjue and said, "Don't forget what you promised me."
The Divine Kingdom wanted Bai Qingjue to deal with that demon. The Great God Lord persuaded the other God Lords to allow Bai Qingjue to leave Bailing Mountain. After learning about the Divine Kingdom's plan, Bai Qingjue guessed that the demon might be Ling Yi. She immediately contacted Tian Yan, who then assigned her the task of luring Qingyu to the Phoenix Domain.
After receiving the mission, Bai Qingjue agreed to let the Divine Kingdom deal with Ling Yi, but his attitude was extremely perfunctory. Considering his past record of killing Ming Guang and his perfunctory attitude, the Divine Kingdom believed that he would not obey obediently, so they planned to have a Divine Lord keep an eye on him.
The reason for sending the God Lord instead of a priest was that Bai Qingjue was not easy to deal with, and the God Lord would be more at ease keeping an eye on him. Another reason was that Bai Qingjue's perfunctory attitude was taken into consideration. With the God Lord accompanying him, even if he was not serious about dealing with that demon, the God Lord could take action to deal with the demon immediately.
Upon learning of the Divine Kingdom's arrangements, Bai Qingjue, while pondering how to ensure that the chosen Divine Lord would be Qing Yu, sarcastically remarked to the Divine Kingdom: "Since the Divine Lord is to accompany us, why send him to do anything? Let the Divine Lord handle it directly."
The more Bai Qingjue resisted, the more the Divine Kingdom insisted on sending people to accompany her. However, they were also troubled by the choice of people, since each of the Divine Lords felt that their status was noble and were unwilling to go on this trip with Bai Qingjue.
Just as Bai Qingjue was pondering the difficult choice of a successor for the Divine Kingdom, Qingyu took the initiative to approach Bai Qingjue, saying that as long as Bai Qingjue was willing to tell her who helped him kill Mingguang, she could reluctantly go with Bai Qingjue.
Bai Qingjue hadn't expected the person to come to him so readily. While he was pleased with the offer, he didn't readily agree, as agreeing too easily at this time would only arouse suspicion. Therefore, Bai Qingjue made a further request: he could tell Qingyu who helped him kill Mingguang, but Qingyu had to help him deal with that demon.
Bai Qingjue finally relented, but Qingyu became wary. However, Bai Qingjue didn't just agree to her request; he made another request. After considering it, Qingyu agreed, but she also asked Bai Qingjue why she had to deal with that demon.
