Chapter 221: The Method to Save Leng Li
Chapter 221 The Method to Save Leng Li
Mingyue Dynasty, the inner court of the imperial palace.
Inside Wutong Palace, the lights were on, and fist-sized luminous pearls shone brightly, emitting light.
A delicate fragrance emanated from each of the bright pearls.
Just one sniff of it is enough to make one feel refreshed and calm one's inner turmoil.
Empress Mingyue, dressed in a black and gold imperial robe, sat behind her desk. She was elegant and noble. The loose imperial robe was draped over her shoulders, which was obviously very covering, but it was also very eye-catching.
The exquisite curves of her upper body, revealed only at the waist, are exceptionally captivating.
With her broad-mindedness and mature feminine charm, she stirred the heart of Qin Xuan.
" Qin Xuan! How dare you be so bold before Her Majesty the Empress!?"
Beside Empress Mingyue, a capable woman dressed in a light blue fitted dress with a high ponytail was angrily reprimanding her.
It should be known that before Dao, Qin Xuan, is the Empress of Mingyue. All the subjects of the Mingyue Dynasty kneel and worship before the Emperor.
Qin Xuan, on the other hand, stood there nonchalantly, his eyes darting around aimlessly.
That's incredibly audacious!
"It's alright." Empress Mingyue raised her hand, smiling slightly as she looked at Qin Xuan before her. "This time, you owe me a favor. If I have a request, I wonder if you would be willing to grant it?"
Qin Xuan stretched out his hand, a cluster of soul light floating in his palm.
It was a fragment of Leng Li's soul light that he intercepted inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower.
He had planned everything meticulously, but he never expected that Leng Li would actually push his soul to its limits for him.
After he left the devastated land of Butian Holy Land, Leng Li finally succumbed to his slumber, his spirit dissipating and his soul flying away.
He doesn't like things to be out of his control.
Even more dissatisfied, Leng Li left him without any warning.
In front of Empress Mingyue, Qin Xuan boldly made a request to Dao, " I am deeply grateful for your Majesty's life-saving grace, but this battle has consumed too much of my Soul Power. My friend is now experiencing Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. I wonder if Dao..." "Does Your Majesty have a way to rebuild its soul?!"
The capable woman standing beside the desk spoke with annoyance, " Qin Xuan, don't push your luck!"
"If Her Majesty the Empress had not intervened to save you, you would already be reduced to dust under the Great Emperor Ziyang's grasp!"
"Your life was saved by Her Majesty the Empress, and it's one thing to be ungrateful, but now you're shamelessly making demands on your own initiative!?"
Qin Xuan turned her head and glanced at the capable woman. Seeing her high ponytail swaying, she rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Did I talk to you? Are you Her Majesty the Empress? Why do you always interrupt me when I'm speaking? If you don't speak, are you afraid people will think you're mute?"
We are all in the same boat!
The Empress rescued him, naturally wanting him to contribute.
Why can't he make his own demands?
When someone is treated like an ox or a horse, they can only bury their head in work and cannot have their own thoughts?
The capable woman's slender hand, hanging at her waist, clenched into a small fist. Her lips twitched slightly as she said, "You think you can still command the Power of the Underworld River?!"
"You think you can stand on equal footing with Quasi-Emperor Realm just because you weren't seriously injured in this battle!?"
Her breath spread out, surging towards Qin Xuan like a tidal wave, only to vanish in an instant.
It's a deterrent!
This slender woman was none other than a quasi-emperor!
"Oh, who do we have here? It turns out it's Ning Waner, the second-in-command of Seven Pearls of Mingyue!"
Qin Xuan recognized the capable woman in front of him.
Ning Waner, the second oldest among the Seven Pearls of Mingyue.
Empress Mingyue's absolute confidante, a figure second only to the Empress and above all others.
Ning Waner is learned, knowledgeable, and has a broad perspective.
It was not unexpected that they could recognize the Power of the Underworld River.
He said nonchalantly, "You want the horse to run but don't feed it. If this is how you Mingyue Dynasty recruit people, you might as well just kill me."
He learned about Ning Waner from Little Koi.
They also knew that Empress Mingyue was open to recruiting talent and was eager to find capable individuals.
They couldn't possibly kill him with just a few words after all the effort they put into rescuing him.
Empress Mingyue raised her hand to stop Ning Waner, who was about to get angry. Staring at the soul light in Qin Xuan's palm, she knew perfectly well what was going on and calmly said, " Leng Li's physical body was shattered in the battle in Yaochi Sacred Land, leaving only his soul body. He was transformed into a Soul Cultivator, which must have been your doing."
Her gentle eyes surveyed Qin Xuan as she continued, “Your Soul Power far surpasses the limitations of Heavenly Human Realm. You must possess a method of Soul Cultivator.”
"However, in this battle, Leng Li The Soul Power has been overdrawn and dissipated into dust. Even if I could help you gather the remnant soul, I would not be able to revive it.
She turned to Ning Waner and asked, "Waner, do you have a way to revive Leng Li?"
Ning Waner nodded. "There is such a thing, but that's just wishful thinking."
She glanced at Qin Xuan casually, then said seriously, "First of all, in Leng Li... " When the Soul Flying Away and the Spirit Scattering, its soul light vanished in all directions. The vastness of the space was such that even if Her Majesty the Empress and Great Emperor Ziyang joined forces, they would not be able to gather the shattered fragments of its Soul.
"Secondly, these Soul fragments, with the help of Your Majesty's nine-turn nether pill, have been re-formed, but like a candle flickering in the wind, they are difficult to maintain and require a special vessel to nurture their remnant souls."
"These conditions must be met simultaneously; if there is even the slightest flaw, all our efforts will be in vain!"
In her view, Leng Li was dead, his body vanished.
To think it could be revived is nothing short of a pipe dream!
Empress Mingyue looked helplessly at Qin Xuan, "You heard it too. Wan'er is well-read and knows all the ancient books in the Mingyue Dynasty very well. I do have the Nine-Turn Nether Pill, but it is already extremely difficult to find its remnant soul, let alone the special vehicle that carries Leng Li's soul."
A fleeting glint of joy crossed Qin Xuan's eyes as he bowed respectfully to Empress Mingyue, pleading, "I beg Your Majesty to grant me a nine-turn nether pill! In return, I will remain in the Mingyue Dynasty and serve Her Majesty the Empress for ten years!"
Ning Waner crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow, and sneered, "Is that what you call serving? Once you leave the Mingyue Dynasty, the Ziyang Imperial Family can hunt you down to the ends of the earth. Is that serving, or are you looking for a backer?!"
Empress Mingyue was completely oblivious, only knowing Dao Qin Xuan is seeking the elixir of immortality.
She flicked her finger, and a top-quality Medicinal Pill, branded with nine stripes, spun and floated toward Qin Xuan.
The moment Qin Xuan obtained the Medicinal Pill, he vanished from Wutong Palace and reappeared inside the frozen tower.
He could feel the immense, powerful medicinal force of the Nine-Turn Nether Pill.
There was only one; if he swallowed it...
He could probably advance to Quasi-Saint Realm in the blink of an eye, without any hindrance!
"Condense!"
Qin Xuan frowned slightly and crushed the nine-turn nether pill on the spot.
A cluster of soul light in his palm, like a guiding light, hovered above the shattered core of the Nine-Turn Nephew Pill.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The Nether Qi, coiled like silk, surged like a tidal wave, wreaking havoc within the frozen tower space.
In the far distance, the scattered specks of soul light were so dim they were almost invisible.
Enveloped by Nether Qi, it gradually began to converge towards Qin Xuan's location!
According to Ning Waner, when the soul is shattered in the outside world, the space is vast, it dissipates quickly, and it can never be reassembled.
Leng Li's soul was shattered inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower.
Inside the tower, he could freeze time whenever he wanted.
It remains frozen in time at the moment when Leng Li's soul shattered.
Under the terrifying effects of the nine-turn nether pill, it took less than fifteen minutes.
Leng Li's shattered soul light gradually gathered in front of Qin Xuan.
The figure with white hair and red eyes reappeared.
That familiar, beautiful face appeared before Qin Xuan once again.
