Yin Ming then focused his mind on another spatial ring, but to his disappointment, although this ring was also filled with many extremely rare natural treasures, there was nothing that could be considered strange or unusual.
Did their journey to uncover the truth of the world end in vain?
Yin Ming took out the second envelope addressed to Lingyao from the corner of the ring's space. Now, he could only place his hopes on this letter from home.
Yin Ming waved the envelope in his hand, asked Ling Yao for his opinion with his eyes, and after receiving a nod from the other party, he quickly opened the envelope.
However, this final letter was filled with apologies to Lingyao, but it made no mention of what had actually happened.
They simply told him that they could no longer be by Lingyao's side, and that he should take care of himself and live a carefree life as an ordinary person.
Yin Ming let out a long sigh; he had actually guessed that this would be the outcome.
Even Lingyao's parents, both peak ninth-realm experts, lost their lives because of this, which shows how dangerous this trip was. Why would they leave behind any relevant information so that Lingyao would know everything before going on the adventure?
But this only made Yin Ming more curious about what they had encountered.
Just how powerful is the enemy?
To be able to capture two peak ninth-realm experts, either the opponent has already reached the tenth realm, or it is an organization with heaven-defying strength.
But in the original work, there was only one cultivator at the tenth realm, Lingyao, and there was no boastful organization in the whole story.
Could this character also be a product of the butterfly effect brought about by the First Emperor? It was only rationalized by the intervention of the Heavenly Dao, so it didn't reveal any clues?
Yin Ming frowned slightly. It seemed that the Divine Demon Continent was far more dangerous and complex than he had imagined.
Although Yin Ming also wanted to continue the investigation, the clues ended there, so he had to give up for the time being.
Let's discuss it with Firefly after we get out, or ask the past elders and disciples of the Divine Realm—
The presence of this letter in the ring indicates that these items were left behind after Chu Ya's operation failed.
If we could find out how the Divine Realm obtained these relics, we might be able to find some clues.
Having already acquired all the treasures within the tomb, there was no point in staying any longer. So, following the tomb's guidance, the two found the teleportation array leading out of the stone tablet.
Yin Ming stood within the array's range and cast an array spell. A faint blue light flashed, and the two reappeared in the desolate desert filled with endless yellow sand.
Suddenly, a crack appeared on the stone tablet in front of them, and it snapped in half with a loud cracking sound, crashing to the ground and stirring up a misty fog.
Yin Ming stood quietly with Ling Yao for a long time, until all the dust had settled, before he raised his hand and patted Ling Yao's shoulder.
Regardless of Lingyao's previous views on his parents, their deaths mean that all their love and hate are gone.
After these two complex and intertwined emotions were stripped away, all that remained for Lingyao was confusion and helplessness.
They were related by blood, and these two letters showed their feelings for him. Although there was no chance to make up for it, the care and concern they expressed were genuine.
Therefore, Lingyao may not have felt much at first, but once he realizes that he has lost them forever, the two people who loved him so much, he will inevitably feel sad.
It's unclear how long it will take him to emerge from this dark period; all Yin Ming can do is silently accompany him as he heals.
Yin Ming took Ling Yao's hand and said, "Let's go."
After carefully examining the surroundings, Yin Ming confirmed that there was nothing unusual about the place. He and Ling Yao then used the teleportation array to return to the Divine Realm.
Of course, Lingyao hid in the monster space ring to conceal himself, so as not to be discovered by others that he had also entered the Godfall Ruins and cause unnecessary trouble.
***
No one expected that Yin Ming's trip would only take three days, faster than any disciple in previous years.
After learning that he had also inherited the legacy of his predecessors, praise poured in. The elders and disciples of the Divine Realm all praised him as the first twenty-year-old cultivator at the eighth realm in history, truly capable of shouldering great responsibilities.
Yin Ming was embarrassed by the praise, but it was all thanks to the protagonist's halo.
But he certainly couldn't say that out loud. After a few simple, modest words, Yin Ming made an excuse to return to his own courtyard.
He spent half of those three days receiving the inheritance. Although cultivators above the eighth realm have a much lower need for food, Yin Ming, who was used to three meals a day, hadn't eaten a single grain of rice for three consecutive days. He had to treat himself to a big meal.
Okay, to put it simply, he wasn't hungry, but he was craving something.
Halfway through cooking, Long Cheng arrived upon hearing the news, and even more unexpectedly, Chu Mu came along as well.
Yin Ming raised an eyebrow slightly as he observed the unspoken atmosphere between the two. Bringing someone here so openly to freeload a meal, it seems like an official announcement isn't far off.
At the same time, she silently gave Chu Mu a thumbs up in her heart. This girl seemed to be pure and indifferent to worldly desires, but she was steady, accurate and ruthless when she made her move.
Long Cheng didn't notice Yin Ming's meaningful gaze. He stared at the braised demon fish that was about to be served, his eyes shining as he asked, "Brother Ming, do you need my help?"
Yin Ming rolled his eyes at him. This kid said he was helping, but he was probably thinking about stealing food. So he ignored him and looked up at Chu Mu and said, "Senior Sister Chu Mu, why don't you help me? It'll be better if we finish quickly so we can eat sooner."
Feeling rejected, Long Cheng squatted in the corner and started drawing circles in frustration. It wasn't until Chu Mu secretly served him a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs that Long Cheng smiled again. "Waaah, Chu Mu is so good to me!"
Yin Ming, who witnessed everything: ...
Tsk, you should just spoil him.
