Chapter 530 Goodbye Bai Sheng
In the palace, the flickering candlelight stretched the figures of the two people, sometimes longer and sometimes shorter, interweaving an inexplicable solemnity and subtlety.
Luo Li's eyes flickered in the dim light, like the brightest stars in the deep night sky. She slowly lowered her fingertips and turned her gaze to the Flame Lord. There was both surprise and thought in her eyes.
Luo Li really didn't want to do this.
After all, asking a powerful man who is famous in the continent to swear an oath is a sign of looking down on him in the heart of the powerful man.
So even though Luo Li knew that making a heaven and earth oath was the most convenient method, she was not sure about this method until she had fully understood the Lord of Flame's position.
But no one expected that the Lord of Flame would inexplicably make a vow to heaven and earth.
Then the situation becomes a little subtle.
Sheng Jue was dressed in a fiery red robe, and his body seemed to be surrounded by an eternal flame. Even in this quiet room, one could feel the tremendous power surging in his body.
His words just now were powerful, and every word seemed to burst out from the deepest part of his heart, with unquestionable firmness.
When the lines of the Heaven and Earth Oath faded, he looked at Luo Li, his voice unchanged, "So, are you confident in us now?"
Luo Li chuckled, "To be honest, I didn't expect Lord Yan to be so decisive."
Sheng Jue didn't think it was shameful to swear the oath to heaven and earth. He looked calm, "Then, the answer I want..."
Luo Li asked, "Is the answer important to you?"
Sheng Jue nodded seriously, "It's very important."
It's not just important to him, it's also important to the entire Cang Yan Hai, and even more so to the countless Cang Yan Hai seniors who have dedicated their efforts to this."
"Okay." Luo Li stood up. "Before I answer that question, I want to meet Bai Sheng alone. After meeting him, I will give you an answer."
Sheng Jue lowered his eyes and thought for two seconds before speaking calmly, "Bai Sheng went to investigate the Tianyu Palace some time ago and was injured by the Advent One. He was seriously injured and is currently recuperating in seclusion."
What he meant was that he didn't know whether Luo Li could meet Bai Sheng.
Luo Li spread her hands and said, "Then take me to his residence first."
That's no problem.
So he stood up and said, "Come on, follow me. If Bai Sheng is not in good condition, I won't let you see him."
Luo Li raised an eyebrow, "No problem."
Sheng Jue stood up, and Luo Li followed closely behind.
He took Ju Luoli to the island in Cangyan Sea.
The islands in the Cangyan Sea are shrouded in clouds and mist, as if a fairyland has been left in the human world.
The bright moonlight shone through the sparse clouds, dappling onto the sea surface, forming a sharp contrast with the dark blue waves surging in the distance.
On the island, ancient trees stand tall, and the occasional crisp chirping of birds can be heard among the branches and leaves, adding a bit of vitality to this quiet place.
Sheng Jue walked through the forest path with ease, and every step seemed so calm and unhurried, as if every inch of land on this island was engraved in his memory.
Luo Li followed closely behind, looking around, full of curiosity about this mysterious island.
As we go deeper, an ancient courtyard gradually comes into view. It is nestled against the mountains and beside the water, surrounded by carefully trimmed shrubs, making it look particularly quiet.
The courtyard gate is closed, and there are intricate totems carved on the door, exuding a solemn sense of time.
Sheng Jue stopped in front of the door and knocked gently. The crisp sound echoed in the quiet air.
A moment later, the door was opened from the inside, and Hua Nongying poked his head out. "Hey? Master Yan, you're here."
Sheng Jue nodded, "How is Bai Sheng?"
"The situation hasn't improved." Hua Nongying shook his head and sighed, forcing himself to ask, "Is there something that Master Yan wants?"
"An acquaintance wants to see him." Sheng Jue nodded, and he also had a headache. With the current elixirs in Cang Yanhai, Bai Sheng could not be cured at all.
"You want to see Bai Sheng?" Hua Nongying turned around and saw Luo Li, a little surprised, "Luo Li?"
Luo Li nodded, "Long time no see."
Hua Nongying wanted to smile, but because of Bai Sheng's condition, it seemed a little forced. "Long time no see, how come you are here?"
Luo Li replied, "There are some things to do."
Hua Nongying seemed to understand, "I see."
Walking into the yard, Yun Poyue came out of the house holding a wooden tray. Seeing the people in the yard, he was also a little surprised, "Master Yan, Luo Li?"
Sheng Jue nodded, "You just came out from Bai Sheng? Is his condition better?"
Yun Poyue bowed and said in a low voice, "Just now, a strange phenomenon occurred and Wang Zun woke up. He is now regulating his breathing in the house."
The moonlight was like a stream of light, spreading across the quiet courtyard, adding a touch of softness to the tense atmosphere.
The wooden tray in Yun Poyue's hand exuded a faint medicinal fragrance. He walked lightly towards Luo Li and the other two, and each step seemed particularly heavy.
He and Hua Nongying looked at each other, and there were complicated emotions in each other's eyes.
Luo Li's eyes were deep, as if she could see through everything, while Hua Nongying tried hard to restrain her inner worries, and forced a comforting smile on the corner of her mouth.
Sheng Jue pressed his forehead and said, "I'll take Luo Li down to check it out. I won't disturb him."
Yun Poyue and Hua Nongying had no reason to refuse, and they also knew that Bai Sheng actually wanted to see Luo Li.
So the two of them nodded and said, "Okay."
Sheng Jue led Luo Li into the house, opened the mechanism, and an entrance leading to the underground appeared.
Walking through the winding and deep corridor, candlelight flickered on both sides, reflecting the mottled stone walls. The air was filled with a faint herbal fragrance and a subtle fluctuation of spiritual power.
They came to an ancient stone door with intricate runes carved on it, as if it contained ancient power.
Sheng Jue gently stroked a mechanism beside the door. With a slight mechanical turning sound, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a staircase leading underground. On both sides of the stairs grew exotic flowers and plants that glowed with fluorescent light, adding a bit of mystery and vitality to this dark space.
Luo Li stepped onto the stairs, taking each step cautiously.
As you go deeper, a stronger medicinal fragrance hits your nose, mixed with a hint of spiritual energy, which makes you feel refreshed.
At the end of the stairs was a spacious and bright stone chamber with a huge cold jade bed in the center. Sitting cross-legged on the bed was a person, Bai Sheng.
He looked pale, his breathing was weak, and a faint aura surrounded him. It was obvious that he was undergoing a difficult recovery.
There is an ancient incense burner placed in each corner of the room. In the curling green smoke, the aroma of various rare medicinal herbs are intertwined, forming a quiet and solemn picture.
The moment Luo Li saw Bai Sheng, she knew he was in a very bad condition. She frowned and turned to ask Sheng Jue, "Which descender injured Bai Sheng?"
Bai Sheng is already a four-star God King, and even the Adventers can rarely beat him into this state.
