Chapter 348 The Somber Mysterious Ruins



Qing Jian shook his head: "I've never heard of it. Perhaps you can ask Lord Xuanxu."

Ya'en was just asking casually and didn't have any expectations. Hearing Qingjian say this, Ya'en wasn't disappointed.

Qing Jian continued, "So, you discovered that Yan Bing still possesses human emotions, right?"

He nodded and said, "Yes, based on our previous cooperation and exchanges, that should be the case."

Qing Jian seemed thoughtful and asked, "Is it possible that Yan Bing is faking it? For example, has she actually joined the Mist God's camp and wants to use this incident to lower our guard against her, so as to infiltrate our Mist Bureau?"

Yaen frowned and said, "I've considered this possibility before, but without Yan Bing, we probably wouldn't be able to stop the spatial rift in Base City 65. At the very least, the true form of the Time-Disorder Worm would enter Earth, or at the very least, its power would enter its body. If she truly has no human emotions, there's no need for her to help us."

Qing Jian nodded noncommittally, then said, "But there are many questions she seems unwilling to answer, isn't there? And she doesn't want the demigod-level guardians to go to that so-called Ruins of Return."

Yann remained silent for a moment.

That's true.

Yann said, "I'm afraid she has her own reasons for this."

Lu Ning, who was standing to the side, also calmly said, "I feel that Yan Bing is not a believer in evil gods."

Ya'en immediately said, "Look, even Lu Ning said so, Yan Bing is definitely not a traitor."

Qing Jian looked puzzled, glanced at Lu Ning, and then asked, "Why is it that Lu Ning's statement means he's not a traitor? He's just expressing his own feelings, just like you."

Ya'en immediately said, "Lu Ning's intuition is very accurate. In the fog wall and the inverted pyramid maze of Fog 233 that we mentioned before, as well as in various other situations, we were able to get out thanks to Lu Ning's intuition."

Hearing this, Qing Jian paused, looked at Lu Ning with some surprise, and then looked at Ya En: "...Are you kidding me?"

How accurate can you be if you just rely on your feelings?

Qingjian could not understand.

“Of course it’s true, I’m not joking,” Yann said with a serious expression.

Qing Jian was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Since that's the case, I won't say any more. You should still go to see Lord Xuanxu, right? As for Yan Bing's matter, let Lord Xuanxu decide."

Yann nodded.

Then Qingjian asked again, "So the Pope of the Eternal Corridor and the body of the Time-Disordered Worm merged to form a new humanoid monster, and he escaped?"

"Um."

"Where are you going? Are you sure?" Qingjian asked while taking notes.

"I don't know, but I guess they might go to the headquarters of the Corruption Mother Nest. After all, according to our previous thinking, the Eternal Corridor and the Corruption Mother Nest should be cooperating, and the two evil gods behind them are probably working together. Now that the headquarters of the Eternal Corridor has been destroyed, the most likely place they will go first is the headquarters of the Corruption Mother Nest."

This was Yann's guess, but Qingjian thought it made a lot of sense.

She nodded slightly, and then asked some questions about what Yann had said earlier.

Once all the questions were answered, the notebook in front of Qingjian closed automatically, and she calmly said, "It's all recorded. You can leave now."

Ya'en nodded and left the archives with Lu Ning.

Afterwards, the two arrived at the fourth underground level, which was the guardian's residence.

They arrived at Xuanxu's room and knocked on the door.

A moment later, the door opened, and Xuanxu's voice rang out: "Come in."

Ya'en and his companion stepped into the room.

Xuanxu's room was no different from before, still filled with mirrors.

Xuanxu seemed to have just woken up. He was wearing loose pajamas, leaning back on the sofa, holding the TV remote and constantly changing channels.

If you didn't see Xuanxu's unusual appearance, he would look like a high school student on vacation.

Xuanxu turned to look at Lu Ning and Ya'en, and said with a smile, "You're back a bit late? It seems there's something amiss with the Mist at No. 101? Please have a seat."

While Yan was still a little embarrassed, Lu Ning had already walked over and sat down on the sofa.

Seeing this, Yann's lips twitched slightly, and he followed her over and sat down.

Ya'en said, "Lord Xuanxu is right. There has indeed been a mutation inside the mist, and the situation is very bad."

Xuanxu raised an eyebrow, his eyes, which seemed to be made of countless mirrors, gleaming slightly, and asked, "Tell me more?"

He picked up a cup of soy milk from the coffee table, took a sip, and then picked up a fried dough stick and took a big bite.

Seeing Lu Ning staring at the fried dough stick in his hand, Xuan Xu was taken aback, then said somewhat warily, "...I ate it myself."

This time he didn't ask Lu Ning if he wanted it or not. After all, he had already taken it last time, so what if he wanted it again this time?

Didn't he lose his breakfast?

"Oh." Lu Ning looked away expressionlessly.

Xuanxu's lips twitched slightly, then he took a fried dough stick and handed it to Lu Ning with a hint of heartache: "Never mind, I'll give you one."

Lu Ning's eyes lit up, and she quickly took it, saying, "Thank you."

Fried dough sticks...

Lu Ning took a bite, and the crispy texture made him feel a little dazed.

It's been a long time since I've had this.

There are no fried dough sticks or soy milk for sale in Base City No. 116.

Ya'en, who was about to report the situation, was completely bewildered as he watched the two talking.

No, isn't this a very serious time?

And... why wasn't I included?

Ya'en didn't dare to voice his thoughts.

He coughed silently, and Xuanxu came back to his senses, saying, "Speak."

Yan nodded and began to recount what had happened.

Xuanxu was originally sitting with his legs crossed, happily eating fried dough sticks and drinking soy milk. But as he listened to Ya'en's story, he gradually sat up straight, his brows furrowed slightly, and his expression became more serious.

The Luna Cult is conducting an unknown ritual in Base City 101, which may be related to the moon's descent.

The newly appeared Eternal Corridor was something he had never heard of before, and yet it possessed such formidable power.

The evil god behind the Eternal Corridor is called the Time-Disordered Worm, a time-based evil god. Judging from its abilities, it should be extremely powerful among evil gods, yet I had never heard of it before.

But this little-known evil god actually sent his body to Earth and tore such a big hole in the barrier.

Moreover, this Eternal Corridor actually has a partnership with the Corpse Mother Nest?

Is Yan Bing really still alive, and does he seem to have retained his humanity?

But within the mist, there exists a safe zone: the Land of Return to Nothingness?

Among them were even survivors from other civilizations and races that had been destroyed?

There's so much important information in this.

Even Xuanxu had a very solemn expression.

Especially that escaped time-manipulation monster, lurking in the shadows, is definitely a huge threat.

In Xuanxu's view, the Land of Return to the Void was even more important than that time-based monster!
