--- Chapter 88 ---
Yu Longnded on the destroyed courtyard and saw Xiao Che''s body glowing in white light. He ignored the protagonist, who had lost his plot armor and searched for something.
"Hmm, there is no Sky Poison Pearl?" Yu Long tilted his head in confusion.
However, Yu Long shortly felt a stinging sensation on his left hand.
At the same time, Levy''s voice entered his mind.
''Master, the continent is stabilizing itself.''
''Every living being on the continent finally moved again. Also, the invisible barrier has disappeared.''Yu Long listened to the report silently and lifted his left hand, seeing a circr green pattern on his palm.
A connection between the pattern and Yu Long appeared out of nowhere, which caused his lips to curve into a smile.
''Good job, continue your mission.'' Yu Long responded.
''Understood!''
After saying farewell, the Leviathan cut themunication link.
Yu Long stared at the circr green pattern and closed his eyes.
He entered the pocket dimension inside the pattern and saw a vast green space. No, it was boundless space with no limit and kept expanding when his senses probed further.
The Sky Poison Pearl, or Heavenly Poison Bead, is one of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures and ranked fifth. The Sky Poison Pearl''s capabilities are ''mainly'' centered around poison, medicine, purification, and space.
Yu Long just discovered one aspect of it, which is space.
''If I could extract this profound pattern... I could create a room with a simr function.'' Yu Long is different from your typical cultivation world''s protagonist.
As for the poison aspect, Yu Long knew the Sky Poison Pearl that had merged with his left hand was iplete. The reason is the Mirror of Samsara''s reincarnation ability that caused a split in the timeline.
The other half of Sky Poison Pearl is below Cloud''s End Cliff, where Yun Che ended his life.
Well, all the goodies Yun Che brought from his failed reincarnation fell into Yu Long''s hand. He has be the sole owner of the Mirror of Samsara after some tug-of-war with the Ancestral God''s will.
"Haha." Yu Longughed in amusement.
In just five minutes or so, two of the Heavenly Profound Treasures have be his possession.
Well, technically, one and a half out of the seven.
Yu Long coughed awkwardly and looked around, sensing no one was staring at him.
He sighed in relief and searched for Chu Yueli because she should be around here. He found the frosty maid fainted near a pond, having a paleplexion.
"Y-Young Master..." Chu Yueli called out weakly.
''That damned SIMP!'' Yu Long''s heartstrings tug when seeing Chu Yueli like this. He kneeled and checked her condition, finding her blood essence and profound strength were in disarray.
Chu Yueli probably felt incredible shock when Xiao Lingxi awakened her Ancestral God''s true soul. It was so intense her mortal body couldn''t handle it.
Yu Long caressed Chu Yueli''s cheeks gently and flowed his vitality into her body. The snowydy closed her eyes and feltfortable, unknowingly leaning against Yu Long''s shoulder.
After a while, Chu Yueli''splexion recovered and became healthy again. However, she''s still in a weak state, considering how powerful Ancestral God''s presence was.
"Y-Young Master, what happened?" Chu Yueli opened her mouth with difficulty. Her voice sounds hoarse and sick.
Yu Long rubbed her head, "Sleep for now. I''ll exinter." ''
"I, okay." Chu Yueli wanted to say she was okay, but she knew her condition was horrible.
She never felt that horrible in her life.
Still, thanks to it, she could feel Yu Long''s embrace.
''This is a blessing in disguise.'' Chu Yueli thought with a smile, enjoying Yu Long''s warmth.
Yu Long carried Chu Yueli like a princess and walked to Xiao Che, doing thest check. He threw a pill that entered the youth''s mouth and healed his broken profound veins, opening all the profound entrances in one swoop.
Without Yun Che''s memory, Xiao Che would only be Xiao Che.
If he''s being a good boy, Yu Long might help him to reunite with his real blood family. However, that would be far in the future.
Yu Long walked to the fainted Xiao Lingxi and drew some drops of her blood. He was ''actually'' tempted to turn her into an essence sphere but guessed it would trigger a ''bad'' g.
"Whatever. I''ve sealed Xiao Lingxi''s connection with the Ancestor God''s true soul and probably would leave a Kaiju to monitor herter." He stared at the empty air.
"Uda, watch her for me."
"Gotcha, boss!" A male voice echoed, but no one was around. Uda is none other than Space Walker, a Kaiju that Yu Long created with a certain Uchiha in mind.
Of course, there are some more of him.
"Hmm?" Yu Long sensed something and spotted Xiao Lie frantically running into the courtyard with a panicked expression.
"Xiao Che, Lingxi!"
"You, who are you?!" Xiao Lie released his pitiful early Sky Profound Realm cultivation before Yu Long.
Yu Long waved casually, "Calm down, Senior Lie."
"I''m Yu Long."
"I wasing here to do the favor you requested but protected these two from the ck thunderbolts instead. Phew, that was wild." He brushed the matter of Ancestral God away.
Xiao Lie''s eyes widened in surprise as he finally noticed the destruction in the courtyard. The pavilion has turned into a pile of ashes. The same goes for the trees and nts around it.
"This is..." He gazed back at Yu Long and noticed some blood on his clothes. "Your Highness, do you perhaps need assistance?"
"I can see that you have some blood-!"
"This is nothing but scratch." Yu Long responded calmly. "Then, I''ll excuse myself."
"Oh, by the way. I''ve fixed your grandson''s profound veins. And don''t worry, I won''t charge extra for protecting those two..." He added while disappearing into the distance.
Xiao Lie felt grateful and bowed, "Thank you for everything, Your Highness!"
...
Yu Long whistled and awkwardly forgot to exin to Xiao Lie that the Mirror of Samsara was now in his possession.
"Well, I''ll cross that bridge when Ie to it."
As Yu Long returned to Xiao Manor, he was ''immediately'' bombarded with questions by Xia Qingyue and Cang Yue. Xia Qingyue, in particr, asked him about the ck thunderbolt and the immense energy in the mountain ahead.
Meanwhile, Cang Yue asked why the fortune around Yu Long increased so much in just one trip. The Monarch Heart Secret Art she cultivated could feel the change in Yu Long''s luck.
Yu Long showed them the Mirror of Samsara and narrated the story about Xiao Lingxi''s possession, but discarded some parts because those weren''t necessary. For now, that is.
"Xiao Lingxi."
"Ancestral God."
"Mirror of Samsara."
"You''ve gone through a lot, Big Brother." Xia Qingyue put on a weak smile.
She sighed inside because she should have followed Yu Long to the Xiao n. At the very least, she could have seen the Ancestral God in the flesh.
Yu Long brought Chu Yueli to the guest room and ced her on the bed gently. ''I want to make Ancestral God''s new body, but I''ve exhausted every energy reserve I had.'' He put on a pained expression.
Yu Long couldn''t use [Kaiju Synchronization] and [Kaiju Overdrive] for three months. That''s the same amount of time Yu Long needs to gather enough Primordial Energy to make a new Kaiju.
Unknown to Yu Long, Chu Yueli is awake all this time.
When she saw Yu Long''s pained expression, she thought he felt guilty for her current state.
She felt touched and undoubtedly warm inside. While Yu Long did care for Chu Yueli''s well-being, the maid just misunderstood his expression and put her twist on it.
Even then, this is thest push for Chu Yueli''s feelings to bloom wonderfully.
It was a small gesture from Yu Long, but can you me Chu Yueli for being a maiden in love?
If Yu Long knew what Chu Yueli was thinking, he''d probably felt helpless but nheless happy.
Yu Long grabbed a nket and covered Chu Yueli''s body, "Sleep well, Yueli."
"We will go to the Frozen Cloud Asgard after you be healthy." He decided to stay because the red-haired loli from the upper realm might follow the plot and be stranded at the Blue Pole Star.
The red-haired loli''s blood and Evil God''s blood are tempting research materials.
After saying that, Yu Long left Chu Yueli alone and closed the door. As soon as the door fit with its frame, Chu Yueli could feel warmth creep up to her face.
Chu Yueli blushed and mumbled, "Y-Young Master actually cared about me this deeply."
"I love you, Young Master..." She stared at the ceiling while feeling fluttering butterflies in her stomach.
