After returning to Floating Cloud City, Yun Che arrived at Xiao Lingxi’s courtyard.
The courtyard was kept exceptionally tidy inside and out, the tables and chairs in the room were spotless, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance that Yun Che was all too familiar with.
In both lives, Xiao Lingxi was the person closest to him. From the time he was old enough to understand things until he was sixteen, they had never been apart for even a day. Besides Chu Yuechan, the person he owed the most to was also Xiao Lingxi.
He saved the royal family and Blue Wind Nation for Cang Yue, avenged her father's death and the hatred of the nation, and made the entire Blue Wind Nation stand at the top of the continent. He finally forgave the Phoenix Sect for Feng Xue'er and saved it from destruction. He also helped her Phoenix Soul awaken quickly, saved the Illusory Demon Royal Family for the Little Demon Queen, and helped her get her revenge...
Cang Yue was already his wife, Feng Xue'er had also made an engagement with him, and the Little Demon Queen was even married into his family...
As for Xiao Lingxi, he had never done anything for her, only an empty promise that was not fulfilled.
And Xiao Lingxi had never asked him for anything, nor had she ever complained even a little bit. She always stood silently behind him, watching over him, worrying about him, praying for him, and being frightened...
Now, all the troubles are gone. The existence that was once unattainable has all been trampled under his feet. Nothing can threaten the people around him anymore. Grandpa’s heart knot has been untied, and he can finally fulfill the promise he made to Xiao Lingxi.
Even though he had made up his mind, Yun Che was still nervous... In the current Profound Sky Continent, there was basically nothing that could make him nervous. And before this matter was put in front of Xiao Lie, he was already so nervous that his heart was beating wildly.
It was even more frightening than when fighting Xuanyuan Wentian.
Yun Che sat down at the desk and waited for a long time in Xiao Lingxi’s boudoir, but Xiao Lingxi still hadn’t returned. While waiting, he took out the mysterious black jade from the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord and played with it repeatedly in his hands.
Ever since he got this mysterious black jade, Yun Che would often take it out to study it from time to time. Because it was too mysterious. It had endured the erosion of the Heretic God's seal for a million years with the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord, but it was intact, with a smooth surface without even a tiny trace of light lines. He smashed the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord's body to pieces with his ultimate sword in the "Sky Blast" state, and then burned it into slag by the Golden Crow Flame, but it still did not have any damage.
All power that penetrated into it would instantly disappear without a trace. Even Jasmine and the Golden Crow Spirit with extensive ancient memories could not figure out what it was.
The reason why he took it out now was that while he was waiting, an idea suddenly occurred to his mind. This thing came from the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord, and it was extremely deep and dark in color. It was most likely some kind of ancient magic stone. It had no reaction to his own power, Jasmine's power, and the Golden Crow's power. Then, what about the dark profound power?
Placing the mysterious black jade on the table, Yun Che concentrated his mind for a moment, and a ball of dark light suddenly appeared on his palm. He then slowly moved closer, covering the black light with the mysterious black light, and tentatively probed into it.
However, just like every previous attempt, the dark power that invaded the mysterious black jade disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if it was completely swallowed up by an invisible black hole.
“…” Yun Che was silent for a while, and the black light in his palm suddenly expanded. This time, he not only used the power of his profound veins, but also urged the original dark power in the magic source bead. The two dark profound powers merged, and the entire space suddenly became extremely dark. The air also became cold. The quiet black light in Yun Che’s hand seemed to have become the center of the entire world. With an extremely rich and incomparable dark aura, Yun Che carefully touched the mysterious black light.
Although it was only a small ball of dark profound light, the dark profound power within it, when fully released, was enough to devour the entire Floating Cloud City and turn it into ruins.
And such a force, after touching the mysterious black jade, also disappeared completely in an instant. The black jade was not damaged, not even the slightest movement, and his mental power contained in the dark power also disappeared, and he could not detect a single bit of it.
“…” Yun Che was speechless. Even the dark profound energy had no reaction at all. What on earth was this piece of black jade!?
Yun Che was unwilling to give up and took out the Eternal Night Devil Sword, which also belonged to the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord. He first knocked the sword against the mysterious black jade, and then condensed his profound energy. The sword was instantly covered with black light and touched the black jade.
The result was still no surprise...all the forces that tried to invade disappeared without a trace.
A mud ox entering the sea can at least create ripples, but the power that flows into the mysterious black jade disappears without a trace, without even the slightest sound.
"I just don't believe it!"
Yun Che grabbed the Eternal Night Devil Sword with one hand, and began to gather the dark profound energy with the other hand... At this moment, he suddenly sensed that Xiao Lingxi's aura was approaching. He quickly put away the Eternal Night Devil Sword and the dark profound energy, and then swung his arm quickly to completely dispel the dark aura that was escaping in the surrounding space, so as not to hurt Xiao Lingxi.
After finishing everything, Xiao Lingxi appeared in front of the door. When she saw Yun Che, her beautiful eyes lit up and she said with a smile, “Xiao Che, I heard from daddy that you’re back. I was looking for you everywhere and just waited in your room for a long time. It turns out that you actually sneaked here.”
“I just went out for something.” Yun Che stood up, took a deep breath, and said firmly, “Lingxi, let’s go and see Grandpa!”
“Eh?” Yun Che’s serious look made Xiao Lingxi look puzzled. “Didn’t you just go to your father’s place? Did something happen again? Eh? The stone next to you is so beautiful. This is the first time I’ve seen such a strange light.”
The mysterious black jade was still on the table, and Yun Che did not have time to put it away.
Yun Che immediately said: “I picked up this stone somewhere, but I still don’t know what it is…”
Yun Che's voice suddenly stopped before he finished speaking.
Lingxi just said... light?
He turned his head subconsciously, and then his eyes suddenly kept...
The mysterious black jade on the table next to him was emitting light at this moment!
A strange grey light!!
Since he picked up this piece of black jade, no matter what method he used, even with Jasmine's level of power, he couldn't make it show the slightest reaction. And at this moment, it actually released light without any warning!
And it was a strange light that he had never seen before—gray light! ?
This color of light did not belong to any elemental light that Yun Che knew. It was only a thin layer, covering the black jade, but it completely obscured the original deep black color of the black jade. What was even more bizarre was that this layer of gray light did not have the slightest aura... not even a little bit. It was right next to Yun Che's hand, but if Xiao Lingxi had not spoken, he would not have sensed its presence at all.
You know, with Yun Che’s current spiritual perception, even if it was the lowest level of firefly light that flickered for a moment within a hundred feet, it would not be possible for it to escape his perception.
Looking at this inexplicably shining gray light, Yun Che stood there in a daze, and for a moment he even forgot what he had decided to do.
“Xiao Che?” Seeing Yun Che suddenly lose his voice and become dazed, Xiao Lingxi walked over with a puzzled look on her face. As she approached, the gray light on the mysterious black jade suddenly moved, and then gradually became more and more intense, and brighter and brighter...
When Xiao Lingxi walked in front of Yun Che, the light on the mysterious black jade had already changed from a dim and thin gray to a slightly dazzling bright silver.
“Ah? Its light can change?” Watching the changes in its light, Xiao Lingxi became more and more curious: “Xiao Che, what on earth is this thing? Is it a special black crystal? This is the first time I’ve seen something that can emit this kind of light.”
“…” Yun Che did not answer, because his attention was completely attracted by the light that changed from dark gray to bright silver.
For the light of power to be so unnoticeable to him at such a short distance, it must be either too low or too high. However, no matter how low the level was, as low as the firefly fire, it was impossible for it to be completely imperceptible at such a close distance.
Then, could it be that the level of the laws of this light... is so high that my soul cannot understand it and my spiritual sense cannot perceive it?
But if it is the light of power at an extremely high level, why don’t I feel anything when I touch it with my fingers?
Moreover, this bright silver color that has become richer...why does it feel so familiar? It seems that I have seen the same color not long ago.
Where have you seen...
Yun Che calmed his mind and quickly searched his recent memories... Suddenly, a silver light that was almost identical to his previous memories flashed in his mind.
Under the Cliff of Cloudless...the long hair of the girl with colorful eyes!!
That’s right! Her hair is this bright silver color! At the bottom of the endless dark abyss, her hair always emits an almost dazzling silver light...very similar to the silver light in front of me.
His thoughts quickly turned back... After all, it was just the girl's hair color, and it was an illusory soul body. Although the colors of the two were very similar, it was just a coincidence. The hair color and the light of the ancient black jade should not have any connection no matter what.
“Xiao Che? Xiao Che!!” Xiao Lingxi called out several times in succession, then raised her fair little hand and waved it in front of his eyes: “Xiao Che? What’s wrong with you? Why are you suddenly in a daze?”
Yun Che turned around at Xiao Lingxi’s call and said quickly, “It’s okay. This is the first time I’ve seen this stone glow, so I was a little surprised for a moment.”
As he spoke, his eyes slightly jumped as he looked at Xiao Lingxi... because he suddenly remembered that the black jade, which had not reacted at all before, suddenly emitted light after Xiao Lingxi appeared.
Its light gradually changed from grey to rich and bright... as Xiao Lingxi approached step by step.
This is……
No! This should be just a coincidence... How could Lingxi have any connection or connection with this thing from the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord?
Although he rejected it directly in his heart, his doubts could not be dispelled. After hesitating for a while, he said: "Lingxi, you... try to step back a few steps."
“Ah?” Xiao Lingxi opened her lips slightly, not understanding what was going on, but she still followed his instructions and slowly stepped back: “Is… that so?”
As Xiao Lingxi retreated, the light on the mysterious black jade suddenly dimmed. With every step Xiao Lingxi took back, the light became weaker. She took four steps back and stopped there. The light on the black jade also froze and no longer changed.
Yun Che: “…”
