Chapter 78
On the other side, the yarn balls, Guiyi and Qiongqi, didn't jump around for long.
Although the combination of these two is indeed a headache, one can't be defeated and the other can't be beaten, but it's not really that there is nothing you can do about them.
As Maoxian Guiyi let out his last scream, two wind prisons fell from the left and right, creating a single room for Guiyi and Qiongqi respectively.
"Snap." Yuheng gently closed the fan.
The demon's aura dissipated, and Yuheng returned to his original, harmless antique shop owner. He raised his hand, as if catching an invisible object from thin air.
The wind flow gradually subsided.
"Sir." You Lin put away his spear, silently retreated to his side, and then turned his gaze to Qiongqi.
At this time, Qiongqi was still trying to break free from the wind prison, but no matter how hard he tried, the wind prison remained motionless.
Seeing that the situation was under control and it could be said to be an overwhelming victory, people's tense emotions gradually relaxed, and the atmosphere of despair that had shrouded the place like a dark cloud also disappeared.
"It's safe now. Woohoo, I was so scared. I thought my day was over."
"I knew my wife...the boss is definitely reliable!" said a cosplayer, wiping away tears of excitement.
"So, didn't we almost take a photo with my wife in the first place?" Someone from Team Rainbow finally realized what was happening and slapped their head in deep regret. "Damn it! Why is there this weird setting that says we can't be photogenic... Ahhh, my photo... This might be the only one I'll ever take..."
"Stop crying! If you keep crying, the real boss will find out..."
"Ah, you pushed it and it came alive, so will it come alive if I push it too?"
Perhaps it was Liuhe's intervention. Apart from all the bizarre ideas, no one was aware of the problem at all - why did the comics they had been following become real? Why did the characters and monsters in them appear before their eyes? What role did Liuhe, as a cartoonist, play in this? And so on...
They were all immersed in the joy of surviving the disaster.
What no one knew was that in Yuheng's eyes, countless tiny golden spots of light floated out from their bodies and continued to gather towards Yuheng.
He casually picked one up and discovered that these points of light, like the power of faith he had gained through comics, stemmed from the hope and faith deep within people. The only difference was that this time there were no middlemen taking a cut of the price difference.
Without the source of fear, the strange aura visibly returned to its initial weak state, and even quickly dispersed into several pieces.
Yuheng looked at it for a while and suddenly smiled softly.
So that's how it is... He really underestimated Liuhe's wisdom.
In this world, the power of the heart is immense. The hopes and fears within people's hearts correspond to each other. Even if the influence of one individual is minimal, in the face of a vast base, neither friend nor foe dares underestimate this power.
But for now, this force is still very unstable. If it leans towards the positive, it's fine. If something happens that causes the emotional center of gravity to shift towards the negative, it will be a devastating blow to the camp.
Therefore, in order to be safe, the authorities chose to seal the public's memory of the strange, while Liuhe used comics to entertain the truth. So far, with the authorities unintentional and Liuhe's deliberate promotion, the positive feedback they received far outweighed the negative.
Mo Xuanji, who initially naively thought that Liuhe drew comics just to convey information to him, fell into deep thought on the spot.
Sure enough...his vision is still too small.
Perhaps realizing she couldn't break the energy cage, the beautiful Qiongqi collapsed to the ground. He looked up at Yuheng, a stubborn little white flower, his previous arrogance gone. "Master Phoenix, to be honest, we little demons have all grown up listening to your stories."
"I know that the Feather Clan and His Majesty are what you care about most in this life, but you are well aware of the current situation of the demon clan. Some groups have already disappeared completely, and now the Feather Clan will follow suit. Only by rescuing His Majesty can we break this damn situation."
Qiongqi was gambling, betting that the Feather Clan held a great deal of importance in Phoenix's heart. From the fragments he had shared in the past, it was easy to guess that Phoenix cared particularly about the Feather Clan. Even if he could be so cruel as to ignore His Majesty and the demon clan, he couldn't leave the Feather Clan alone. After all, for a Phoenix without a clan, the Feather Clan was his only home.
As expected, Yuheng looked up at him as if he had been touched by something. "How are you going to rescue him?"
"Sir?" You Lin subconsciously looked at Yu Heng, and seeing that he still had a faint expression, he was unsure of what he was thinking for a moment.
Qiongqi saw that there was a chance, and immediately put on a servile face, speaking faster: "Use the Heavenly Secret Lock! Your Excellency should know that the power of the Heavenly Secret Lock can unlock all seals in the world, and at the same time, it can also seal everything in the world. As long as we get the lock, we can first open the door and rescue Your Majesty, and then use the lock to replace the seal."
"We are almost ready to use the energy needed to power the Heavenly Secret Lock. Now everything is ready except this."
Yu Heng pinched her fan nonchalantly. "You stole these powers from other beings through trickery, right?"
"These are necessary sacrifices. Everything is for the greater good." Qiongqi said dryly.
"What if Your Majesty is no longer with us, or if a mistake is made and the evil god breaks free from the seal and escapes? What should we do?"
"Impossible, His Majesty is immortal, he will be fine!" Qiongqi's voice became sharp: "Even if there are omissions, it doesn't matter. As long as the lock is in our hands, we can seal the gate and then kill it. The result will be the same!"
Yuheng suddenly laughed and said, "Is this what you call a perfect plan?"
Did something weird eat these guys' brains? They didn't even consider the consequences of failure.
"That's right. My Lord, since His Majesty trusts you so much, you must know where the Heavenly Secret Lock is. As long as..."
"I don't know where the lock is." Yu Heng interrupted him. He didn't know where the lock was hidden, and of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't hand over such an important thing.
Qiongqi was stunned. He obviously didn't expect Yuheng to refuse. He hurriedly said, "Sir, you can ignore the demon race, but what about your offspring? The only descendant of the Phoenix clan, the only bloodline, are you going to leave it alone?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.
"Offspring?" Perhaps the appearance of this term was too unexpected, You Lin repeated it subconsciously.
Qiongqi seemed to have remembered something and gave You Lin a malicious smile: "Yes, you don't know, do you? Your husband, Lord Phoenix, he and Lord Longzun have a child."
"Ah!" Fang Ying on the side suddenly let out an excited cry. Fortunately, no one noticed her, so she quickly shut up. The excitement in her heart was self-evident.
You Lin's pupils trembled: "And... and Long Zun have a child?"
"That's not the case." Yuheng said softly.
If he didn't explain, his integrity would be persecuted. What decent villain wouldn't go out and stir up trouble, but instead spread rumors about other people's private lives? Now Yuheng finally realized what Fang Ying and the beautiful girl Qiongqi were whispering about in the back.
These bizarre but plausible analyses, when considered carefully, led the beast's thoughts in a surprising direction. Don't you see how Qiongqi looked at You Lin at this moment, as if he were looking at a third party who had interfered with his destiny?
"Our Lord Dragon and Lady Phoenix are a perfect match, childhood sweethearts. Where did you come from? How dare you steal our lady's girl? Pah!"
You Lin was stunned, his face flushed red: "I'm not, I didn't, this is nonsense!"
"Why don't you have any? You're taking advantage of our Master Phoenix by calling him sir all the time. Don't think others don't understand what this title means. You have bad intentions!"
"You!" You Lin, who was not good at speaking, was so angry that he couldn't say a complete sentence. Instead, Qiongqi opened the door to a new world and attacked crazily.
In his sea of consciousness, Mo Xuanji was already thinking about pinching his own philtrum. He could even hear Fang Ying muttering quietly behind him, "Oh no, I'm on the wrong CP. Is there an official pairing?... But this one smells so good too. Sorry, I'll only take it for a second..."
“…”
The system laughed wickedly.
Coincidentally, both the original and the pseudonymous side brought up this magical topic almost at the same time, so the happiness belonging to the system became double, and the social death belonging to Phoenix also became double.
Yuheng finally dug out a silencing spell from the depths of his memory and used it to seal Qiongqi's mouth. For a moment, the entire space became quiet, and only Qiongqi's mouth could be seen opening and closing.
Your child is in our hands!
"Those good-for-nothings around you can't hurt him." The part that belonged to Mo Xuanji made him subconsciously retort, but he regretted it the moment he said it.
"So... there really is a child?" You Lin said in a lost voice.
In the eyes of others, especially Fang Ying, You Lin's reaction at this time was like suddenly finding out that the idol he had secretly loved for many years was suddenly with someone else and even had a child.
Of course, in reality there was no secret crush. Now You Lin only felt shock and disbelief in his heart.
No, how did this come about? There should be nothing between them.

"..." Yuheng finally pinched his eyebrows in pain and sighed deeply.
I'm sorry, my former friend, your moral integrity has completely left you without you knowing it.
