Chapter 270 Come to the Rescue
Chapter 270 Come to the Rescue
Emperor Yulin was stunned, then turned to look at Jie Qing, seeking an answer. The girl was too young, so he trusted the elders of the Beast Taming Sect more.
Elder Jie Qing stared at Li Nian with a hint of smile in his eyes, "Emperor Yulin, believe her. She is the only one who can control the ancient demonic energy."
When Emperor Yulin heard this, the doubt in his eyes disappeared, and a hint of hope flowed in his deep and majestic eyes.
Li Nian ignored what the others said and focused on the movements in her hands. The black line had stopped crawling and was temporarily controlled by her at her neck.
But this is not enough. The ancient evil energy has invaded her whole body and absorbed her life force. They must be suppressed in one place.
She put her two fingers together slightly, and a white light rose from her fingertips, surrounding Qu Ru. She closed her eyes slightly, carefully controlling her strength, suppressing the ancient evil spirit into one place.
After a while, Li Nian's face turned pale, and the spiritual power in his body was lost along with the power of chaos. He stopped only when the spiritual power in his dantian was drained out.
Yanzhou kept looking at Li Nian. After she stopped, he quickly stepped forward to support her and asked in a low voice:
"How is it, are you okay?"
Li Nian shook his head, swallowed the spirit-boosting pill handed to him by Yanzhou, and then said
"I have controlled the ancient evil energy in your mother's body. Her life is not in danger for the time being."
Yanzhou's eyes lit up with joy, his tense body relaxed, and the worry lingering in his eyes mostly dissipated.
"Great, great, I knew you could do it,"
Emperor Yulin returned to the bedside and touched Qu Ru's face. The black lines had disappeared, leaving only a small cluster at the wrist.
The situation just now made him tremble all over. He reached out and stroked his wife's face. A tear slid down and dripped into the palm of the woman's hand.
"Yanzhou, there is another bad news. Let's go out and tell her first. Your mother needs to rest." Li Nian said
Yu Lin was stunned and looked nervous again.
Several people left the inner hall. Emperor Yulin could not wait a moment. He looked at Li Nian's face, bent his imperial back, and wanted to salute her.
Li Nian: “?”
She was startled and immediately dodged his greeting, tugging at Yanzhou's sleeve, looking quite flustered.
"That's not necessary. Yanzhou is my friend. I'm here for the right reasons. I really can't accept this gift."
When Yu Lin looked up again, the girl in front of him had already moved one meter away. Hearing this, he turned his inquiring gaze to his son.
Yanzhou saw Li Nian's panic, and a smile flashed in his eyes. He said to Emperor Yulin:
"Father, don't scare her."
Emperor Yulin: “…”
You little bastard, your smile is so worthless.
Ever since Li Nian came here, Yu Feichen has swept away the depression of the past few days. His eyes are shining and he looks at Li Nian with admiration.
"Li Nian, you are so awesome."
He stuck close to Li Nian, causing Yanzhou's eyes to darken. Because of those unspeakable feelings, he also stood beside Li Nian.
"What bad news did you just tell me?" he asked.
Li Nian lowered his eyes and recalled what had just happened, his expression becoming a little solemn.
"We can only say that it is temporarily under control, but it could break out again at any time."
Emperor Yulin's face turned pale. "Doesn't that mean I could lose my life at any moment?"
Li Nian nodded, her expression a little complicated. She didn't expect that the ancient demonic energy would be so much stronger now.
Qu Ru's situation is slightly different from Jun Yan's. The ancient demonic energy lurking in Jun Yan's body is not the original source, and it has not damaged her heart meridians.
"That's the source of the ancient demonic energy. It's already damaged her heart meridians over the past couple of days, and it's firmly rooted there. It's truly remarkable that she's been able to hold on until now."
Jie Qing stood aside. He knew better than anyone else what the origin of the ancient demonic energy meant. His brows were tightly furrowed.
"Li Nian, how do you know this is the origin and not a clone?"
Li Nian was silent for a moment, then said, "Elder Jie Qing, I have seen the Sky Devourer. If it is the source of the ancient demonic energy, its aura is even more domineering and powerful."
He paused and said, "And the infected person's body will quickly wither and die in just a few days."
Jie Qing's eyebrows curved, his smile disappeared, his expression quickly turned gloomy, and his voice became extremely cold.
"Evoke the Sky is truly willing to sacrifice his life. In order to seize the Dragon Qi, he even went so far as to separate his origin."
Li Nian sighed in his heart. Emperor Yulin's dragon energy was still on his body. He was afraid that Shikong would not stop and would take further action.
Emperor Yulin frowned, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he wished he could kill those demons.
"My friend, can my wife still wake up? What should I do?" he said helplessly.
"I will try to use secret methods to seal the ancient evil energy in the next few days, but I may not succeed."
Emperor Yulin's eyes were gloomy, with a wry smile on his lips. "Okay, thank you very much, my friend."
After Emperor Yulin left, several people went to another palace so as not to disturb the emperor and empress's rest.
Elder Jie Qing looked at Yanzhou and Li Nian, feeling quite puzzled. What happened in Changshan County that day was widely spread and everyone knew about it.
Tianyan Sect stated that no one could force Li Nian to take action without the sect’s order.
So today Li Nian came here voluntarily, but Jie Qing didn't expect that Yuque Immortal Venerable would let Li Nian come alone.
Yu Feichen frowned and leaned against Li Nian with a smile, "Li Nian, we haven't seen each other for a long time, why don't you come back here to see me."
Li Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint smile on his lips, and took a step back. "I've been busy these days and don't have much time to come see you."
This was not a lie to him. During his time in Tianyan Sect, apart from being busy with the ancient demonic energy, he spent the rest of his time practicing.
Yu Feichen puffed up his cheeks and was about to say something when he was interrupted by Elder Jie Qing.
"Li Nian, does Yuque Immortal Venerable know that you are here?"
"I sent a message, and you should know by now." Li Nian replied calmly.
Jie Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. He stood calmly with his hands hanging down, his expression composed. He looked through the windowsill at the dark sky, his brows furrowed.
"Evoke Sky won't let this go. The next few days won't be peaceful. Li Nian, you better think carefully. Staying here might be dangerous."
Upon hearing this, Yanzhou turned his head to look at Li Nian. His eyes, as dark as a deep pool, met Li Nian's gaze, and his expression was struggling.
"Li Nian, I..."
Li Nian blinked, as if he knew what Yanzhou was going to say. Her clear eyes and gentle eyebrows gave him a playful smile.
"Since we're here, we must get things done. Besides, Elder Jieqing is here, so what are you worried about?"
Yanzhou stared at her, his eyes, as deep as the night, became clear and bright, as if the haze in his eyes had dissipated in an instant.
As soon as Yu Feichen looked up, he saw Yanzhou's affectionate expression. He shuddered all over and rushed between the two of them, blocking their line of sight.
