Chapter 718 Wen Yang
Mrs. Yu committed suicide without hesitation... No, perhaps for her, dying in the embrace of her family was the best destination she had chosen for herself.
Yu Cang turned his head slightly and looked at Wen Yang beside him.
At this moment, Wen Yang's eyes were wide open, full of disbelief. His outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and his body was even shaking.
Yu Cang could probably guess what Wen Yang was thinking at the moment.
Just now, when Madam Yu said those words that sounded like her last words, before Yu Cang spoke, Wen Yang had already realized something and rushed to speak, trying to keep Madam Yu.
Yes, Wen Yang’s own abilities were limited, and he wasn’t sure he could turn a person into a banned card while retaining consciousness, but Madam Yu might have such skills.
So what Wen Yang was thinking about just now was to give the initiative to Mrs. Yu in the process of making the banned card, let her make it herself, and then preserve her memory and consciousness.
Madam Yu could definitely do this...it was the only way for her to survive.
However, she chose to commit suicide without hesitation and chose to break Wen Yang's fantasy.
Thinking of what Mrs. Yu said at the end, Yu Cang's eyes fluctuated slightly.
Is she... concerned about Wen Yang?
If Madam Yu died here, then Wen Yang would be the hero who infiltrated the enemy, overcame numerous obstacles and finally completed the mission.
And if Wen Yang rescued Madam Yu... then not only would his merits be lost, but because of Madam Yu's existence, he might also stand on the opposite side of Yu Cang and be hated by most of the soul card masters in the association.
Yu Cang believed that Wen Yang was ready to go through all of this, and was determined to make a career despite the hostility of those people... but determination could not allow Wen Yang to do everything.
Just as Mrs. Yu said, Wen Yang is not Yu Cang.
Madam Yu, please let Wen Yang go.
Besides this, if Madam Yu survived... then as Qi'er grew up, her feelings towards her biological mother would become more and more complicated.
No matter what happens in the future, there is no doubt that Mrs. Yu's death here, when Qi'er hates her the most, is the best ending and can allow Qi'er to truly get rid of this past.
Such speculation is not groundless. Before Mrs. Yu threw herself into the backlash of the banned card, she asked if Qi'er was here. Obviously, at least now, she had her daughter in her heart, and she did not want to show such a bloody scene in front of her daughter.
But... these are all speculations.
Yu Cang was silent.
Judging from Mrs. Yu's past actions, he found it hard to believe that this woman would be so considerate of others.
Or maybe... he just wanted to avenge his great hatred and didn't want to be bound anymore, nor did he want others to see his ugly side... Or maybe it was just a simple bad taste.
Who knows.
Yu Cang was certain that Mrs. Yu was now dead and could not die any more. No one would ever have the chance to know what her final thoughts were.
He sighed softly and patted Wen Yang's shoulder: "My condolences."
"You--" Wen Yang looked at Yu Cang in an instant, his eyes filled with bloodshot.
He really wanted to question Yu Cang, why did he watch Madam Yu die, why didn't he abide by their agreement... The two myths were present, as long as Yu Cang spoke, Madam Yu would never be able to commit suicide successfully!
However, his words stopped abruptly.
His emotions made it impossible for him to accept it, but his reason told him that it was too late.
His second teacher was completely dead.
What he should do most now is to put away his regret and sadness immediately, avoid conflict with Yu Cang, and seize this opportunity to board Yu Cang's ship. This is the most advantageous choice for him under the current circumstances.
He paid so much and took so many almost fatal risks, wasn't it just for this moment?
This was something he had known and been familiar with since he was a child. It was the only way for someone with average talent and background like him to achieve success.
But, for some reason, he, who had always enjoyed this, now felt a deep sense of fatigue in his heart.
He looked at Yu Cang, this unique and extraordinary genius.
Everything he did in the True Dragon's Death Place can be called a miracle. Can such a talent really be possessed by a human?
Wen Yang stood there in a daze for a long time, and then he gradually lowered his head.
……never mind.
The teacher is right.
He can't do anything.
He is even worse than what the teacher said... He has no talent for card making at all. He has come this far only by being shameless and not afraid of death - what kind of talent is that?
...Oh, that’s right.
Wen Yang suddenly chuckled.
To put it bluntly, the method he chose to save the teacher was just wishful thinking... Although the teacher did things by any means necessary, based on his understanding of the teacher, he was afraid that the teacher would not bother to live as a banned card.
That is an insult to the teacher.
Thinking of this, for some reason, he felt a little relieved in his heart, as if a big stone had fallen to the ground.
"I'm fine, Yu Cang." Wen Yang lowered his head, "Thank you... Don't worry, I won't cause you any more trouble in the future."
Yu Cang looked at Wen Yang and couldn't say anything for a moment.
According to Wen Yang's personality, such words would never come out of his mouth. Since he said it... it means that something has changed.
And just at this moment.
boom!
Not far away, a cold and bloody aura suddenly exploded, and a scarlet light suddenly burst out from the scattered corpse of Mrs. Yu. Among them, countless scarlet thin chains exploded one after another, turning into a dense storm, sucking her family into it.
Hehehe...hahaha...ha...
Strange laughter came one after another. These laughs were scattered at first, then layered, and finally neat, until they condensed into a single sound.
The slender limbs then slowly stretched out from the storm of chains. Yu Cang looked at it, and just as he saw it, his mind was shaken, as if something in his heart was about to be tied with chains and then sucked away.
Yu Cang's heart trembled, knowing that this was the process of a riot and the creation of new banned cards after the successful ban of the card devourer.
This kind of riot will generally have a wide impact, and all living things within the range may be devoured as nutrients in the process of forming the banned card.
Madam Yu triggered the pseudo-personality disorders of four banned cards at once. The resulting riot was terrifying, but... in a place like this, it didn't matter.
Originally, this piece of space debris was about to break into pieces. Even if they ignored it and left now, this newly generated banned card would be integrated into the chaos along with the space debris and become part of the clouds.
Even if they go to the Star Realm, they probably won’t survive for too long… Although banned cards are difficult to kill, they certainly can’t appear out of nothing.
As for now, under the watchful eyes of the two myths, this banned card will not have any effect on Cang and Wen Yang.
Ho! Ho!
Ear-drum-hurting laughter continued to be heard, and in front of everyone's eyes, the shape of the new banned card slowly materialized.
This is a huge humanoid creature, made up of several broken pieces. Its body is divided into five irregular parts, which are connected to the arms, legs and head respectively.
This looks like a person who has been dismembered, but at the cracks of the wound, countless tiny blood-red chains are swimming in the cracks, like sutures, allowing the five parts to be connected together through the air.
The humanoid forbidden card was born on the floating island, but after it saw its surroundings clearly, the strange laughter in its throat stopped abruptly.
It felt the two invincible existences in front of it, and the heavy aura of the myth crushed it, so it could only crawl on the ground trembling, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.
…
"Yu Cang," Di Chang'an said, "I just checked... Madam Yu's soul card, there shouldn't be any backdoors left. As for the forbidden card knowledge contained in it, we still need to verify it one by one."
Yu Cang nodded: "That's good."
"How are you going to deal with it?"
“…”
Yu Cang was silent for a moment.
"Emperor Myth, could you please help...contain this forbidden card in front of me?"
Di Changan nodded: "Okay."
After asking Di Chang'an to help collect the banned card, the few of them left this space fragment.
After today, the Youhuang Heaven Realm will become history.
Yu Cang heard about the mythical sac beast from Emperor Chang'an.
Even though it was infected and turned into a wasteland, it still guarded the last banquet and the former prosperity for thousands of years.
But, unfortunately, everything it tries to leave behind will turn into vast clouds and mist, no longer different from chaos.
Faced with such a scene, Yu Cang felt a little disappointed.
Will this be the ending of Blue Star?
If that were the case... would he become a soul like Ye Lai, wandering endlessly in the chaos, waiting for the call from the world, until he forgets everything now?
No.
Yu Cang turned around and left. It was estimated that this world would disappear within today, and there would not be enough time to extract a single mythological entry.
But it doesn't matter. Even without relying on the entry recorder, he has already gained enough insights from it.
And behind Yu Cang... Wen Yang still had his head down, and left like a walking corpse.
…
The association's people were cleaning up the battlefield quite smoothly, because there was really nothing left in the True Dragon's Death Zone.
Even if there are some residues, they will be cleared out quickly - only the huge pit created by Ren Zheng is a little troublesome to deal with.
This hole goes directly to the asthenosphere, which may bring some hidden dangers, but also has benefits.
The remnants of the myth's attack, with just a little processing, can create a legendary secret realm.
Therefore, the association needs to discuss and decide whether to fill the pit or enclose the land after considering the development plan of the surrounding land.
Yu Shuhong and his wife were quite shocked by this.
When they entered the immortality potion, the real dragon death zone outside was still full of dangers... How come when they came out, it became a desert?
Greatly shocked.
Ren Zheng took the couple back to the ancient capital to explain the situation. He estimated that it would take some time for the couple to fully understand the current era - although they were only out of touch for five years, the soul card world could be said to have been turned upside down.
And Yu Cang - took Wen Yang to find Cheng Mingye.
"What a rare guest." Cheng Mingye said with a smile, "What's the matter?"
"Don't you want to come to my house and have a seat?" Yu Cangmu said with a serious face.
He didn't want to invite the guy in front of him.
But he is an old friend of my parents after all. They haven't seen each other for such a long time, and I think they must miss each other very much.
Cheng Mingye shook his head: "No, the bureau has rules, I can't enter the city."
Yu Cang: "I'll write the application."
Hearing this, Cheng Mingye's expression was quite strange: "...Nephew, you have made great progress."
Among all the departments in Yan State, the Reception Bureau is definitely the department with the most and strictest rules.
There is no way. When it comes to banning cards, no matter how strict we are, it is not excessive.
Not to mention that Cheng Mingye is just a researcher, even his teacher and his teacher's teacher cannot return to the city just for the reason of "visiting relatives".
If I had to do this, I might leave the bureau in the morning and commit suicide by being hit by six spell cards in the wilderness in the afternoon.
The probability of a banned card getting out of control is never zero, and the association cannot allow any banned card to operate in the urban area for no reason.
But Yu Cang...is really an exception.
Now Yu Cang can do whatever he wants in Yan Country.
"Forget it, nephew." Cheng Mingye still shook his head, "Remember, always be in awe of banned cards, even if you are already very strong—"
After a pause, he suddenly smiled:
"Besides, if it wasn't a sincere invitation from my nephew, I wouldn't agree... I've seen enough of those two monsters when I was young, not just this one."
Yu Cang curled his lips.
"Okay then... By the way, I need your help with something."
"What?"
Yu Cang didn't answer directly, but suddenly said to Wen Yang behind him: "Wen Yang, what are your plans for the future?"
"ah?"
Wen Yang looked up in a daze, but there was only confusion in his eyes.
"I...I don't know...can I go home..."
"You already have the banned card. The Association can't let you return to normal society. Go to the Institution and continue your research."
Yu Cang came in front of Wen Yang and looked directly into the eyes of the person in front of him.
At the same time, I felt a little emotional.
If... he didn't have the awakening entry recorder, if he wasn't the Emperor Star Chosen, would he end up like Wen Yang?
I'm afraid so.
Wen Yang also looked at Yu Cang, his eyes flickering slightly, but the light in them was a little dim.
"……good."
Yu Cang patted his shoulder and said, "Wen Yang, I know you are sad, but now is not the time to waste time."
“…”
"I think you should know what Blue Star will face. I need your strength."
Wen Yang looked away and gave a bitter smile: "Yu Cang, stop joking... I'm just an ordinary person."
"Ordinary people can't do those things. Wen Yang, from now on, you don't have to bow down to grow. You can have any resources you want. You deserve them. So, let me see how far you can go without any restrictions."
Wen Yang still resisted: "I deserve it... Haha, is this what I get for betraying my teacher?"
"No." Yu Cang shook his head, "It was given to you by your teacher."
“…”
Yu Cang took out two soul cards from his arms, and then said:
"From a personal perspective, I despise her character, but from the perspective of Yan Nation and even Blue Star, I acknowledge her contribution, even if it involves the blood of innocent people. Her research is crucial, and obviously, in the end, she passed it on to her only disciple."
Yu Cang presented the two soul cards to Wen Yang.
One that stores all of Madam Yu’s research.
The other one is the sealed forbidden card she turned into after her death.
"Wen Yang, your teachers have recognized you, so you should cheer up."
Looking at Yu Cang's expression, Wen Yang was stunned.
He never thought that Yu Cang would say such a thing.
"You... aren't you afraid that I'll retaliate against you in the future?... I once killed many people from the Duan family to avenge my master... Both of my teachers are your enemies!"
Yu Cang smiled gently: "I believe you - Senior Brother."
The two unexpected words shook Wen Yang's heart.
An inexplicable emotion blocked his chest, causing him to choke for a moment.
After a long pause, he finally said, "You idiot...but the teacher's research is too advanced, and it would be too inefficient for me to do it myself...and the teacher clearly gave these to you in the end, not me."
Yu Cang seemed to have guessed what Wen Yang said, so he pointed at Cheng Mingye.
"So I'll introduce him to you—he's a good friend of Mrs. Yu's from college, and he's also a banned card researcher now. I'll let him help you."
