Upon noticing their worried expressions, Bai Qi let out a light chuckle, saying, “I’m fine, there’s no need to worry.”
“What about your beast, Bai Qi?”
With a serious expression, Xia Yan asked in a deep voice.
The pink warrior had already removed the Al brain that contained the Pterosaur Meeh Spirit when he noticed that the Pterosaur was being corrupted by a dark power. Thus, strictly speaking, the pink warrior’s losses were not significant.
However, it was different for Bai Qi. Neither Alpha nor Gamma could transfer their spirits as easily as a Mechanical Beast, and things looked bleak for them.
“Um, they should be fine too. The black magma appears to lean toward the attribute of death, which conflicts with my green dragon scales. A little rest should help,” Bai Qi shrugged off their concern, shaking the green dragon scale on his chest.
Bai Qi deflected the question as Xia Yan tried to press further. Suddenly, Morning Star and the Mountain Giant, who had been fighting previously, fell silent and came to the crevice.
Morning Star put her hands together, instantly transforming them into a giant cannon. Starlight flickered around her as the celestial power rapidly gathered at the mouth of the cannon.
“Starlight Extinguisher!”
Accompanied by a cold mechanical sound, a beam of light shot out, falling onto the crevice like a Milky Way, suppressing the black lava.
“So that’s what you’ve been doing, blocking these things?”
A gentle voice came from Morning Star. The Mountain Giant nodded “Indeed I have been sleeping here for many years. It’s always been calm. I don’t know ’ why these substances suddenly sprung up today. Plus, the sudden appearance of humans, that’s why I treated them as enemies.”
Perhaps because Morning Star suppressed the black magma, the Mountain Giant’s attitude towards Morning Star and Bai Qi and others significantly improved. The previously suffocating oppressive aura disappeared, replaced by a peaceful atmosphere.
“I apologize, we just wanted to explore the secrets of the Emperor’s realm and unexpectedly stumbled upon this,” Wang Chen stepped out of Morning Star, looking somewhat apologetically at the Mountain Giant.
The Mountain Giant tilted his head, humming, “The Emperor’s Secret Realm? Isn t this the realm of the Champion Marquis under the Emperor’s rule?” “Champion Marquis?”
Wang Chen was taken aback and looked at the ancient weapons and bronze beasts scattered all over the ground. He couldn’t help but facepalm and sigh.
“No wonder Bai Heguang was not interested in this place. It turns out that this is not the Emperor’s secret realm?”
“Speaking ill of people behind their backs is not a good quality.”
Just then, a cold voice suddenly came from behind Wang Chen. A man stepped on a black giant bird flew over from a distance and stopped next to Wang Chen. It was the Undead Department’s Titled Legendary – “Celestial Brilliance” Bai Heguang.
“Damn, how come you always catch me?”
Wang Chen shrugged helplessly, “Looking at you, the situation over there at
the guild is the same as here, right?”
Bai Heguang nodded, “This secret realm seems to be designated for sealing these things. That’s why it’s so heavily fortified. It’s not the Emperor’s secret realm we speculated.”
“Well, although we were busy for nothing.”
Wang Chen looked at the Mountain Giant in front of him, “At least we found a creature that might know about the history of the Founding Emperor’s era right?”
Bai Heguang was silent. Then he saw Bai Qi and others on the side and frowned. He flew towards Bai Qi on the Jiuyou Darkbird, while Wang Chen teleported and got to them first.
Two titled legends? Xiaoye, am I hallucinating because of a fever?”
Standing m front of one cold and one sunny titled legend, Lisha felt everything was too unreal and was somewhat unstable. She steadied herself by holding onto Feng Ye’s shoulder.
“I don’t know if you have a fever, but it shouldn’t be a hallucination.”
Feng Ye rubbed his eyes, looking at the two supremely powerful individuals of the Federation in front of him and constructing in his mind how to greet them. However, Bai Heguang apparently did not want to waste time talking with everyone. He directly walked to Bai Qi, looked him up and down, and asked coldly, “Did you just come into contact with that black substance?”
“Um, yes, but my green dragon scales cleaned it off.”
Facing Bai Heguang’s slightly scrutinizing gaze, Bai Qi couldn’t help feeling a
little flustered and brought up his previous excuse.
After all, in a way, he did rely on the green dragon scales to bear the consumption of the Evolution Egg. So it was not entirely a lie.
“Green dragon scales?”
Bai Heguang frowned slightly. He had naturally heard about Bai Qi meeting a legendary green dragon, so he was not surprised that Bai Qi had mythical resources like green dragon scales.
However, he believed that these things couldn’t be completely driven out just
by relying on green dragon scales.
“No need to worry so much. Isn’t this kid hopping about lively?”
Seeing Bai Heguang’s appearance, Wang Chen snapped his fingers. The Morning Star, which had been as big as Mountain Giant, suddenly shrank and fell by Wang Chen. Then she released a stream of celestial power that swept through Bai Qi’s body.
“The Blood of Death is not detected. Other than his body being a little weak, everything else is normal.”
As soon as Morning Star said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Then the people from the association seemed to think of something, and a strange expression appeared on their faces. If it weren’t for the presence of two titled legends, they would undoubtedly have burst out laughing.
They can’t you keep their thoughts clean?
But this celestial power is amazing. It can even suppress the black magma, no the Blood of Death.
If I could get some fragments of Morning Star, with the help of the Evolution
Egg, I might be able to obtain skills like the Light of Stars.
Too bad, it was just a wishful thought.
Despite no news of Morning Star’s actions in recent years, as a student of mechanical martial arts, Bai Qi had some understanding of the legends of Morning Star.
Unless it was someone of Bai Heguang’s level, no one else had a chance of hurting Morning Star, and even if they did, Bai Qi doubted that Wang Chen would just let anyone else step in.
Speaking of the Evolution Egg, Bai Qi couldn’t help but wonder how Alpha and Gamma were doing.
Hopefully, they were safe and sound.
“We shouldn’t linger here. I’ll take the people from the association away first
You deal with the rest.”
Seeing that Bai Qi was fine, Bai Heguang once again returned to the Jiuyou
Darkbird. The Jiuyou Darkbird slightly flapped its wings, and a gust of black
wind swept up Bai Qi and his companions.
“Alright.”
No sooner had Wang Chen finished speaking, than the Jiuyou Darkbird had already vanished from sight, leaving Wang Chen shaking his head in exasperation.
“This guy, it’s been years and he’s still so awkward.”
Wang Chen laughed, and then looked at Wang Huai and the others, saying, “You guys should go too, I still have some matters to discuss with the Mountain Giant.”
“Yes sir!”
Wang Huai and the others had no arguments with Wang Chen’s command and, saluting him solemnly, they left for the exit.
Only after watching them leave, did Wang Chen turn his attention back to the Mountain Giant. He put his light smile away and said earnestly, “Can you tell me more about this thing?”
At the association’s base.
Bai Heguang landed slowly astride the Jiuyou Darkbird, while Bai Qi and the others, who had been whisked away by the Jiuyou Darkbird, looked for corners to vomit as soon as they landed.
Although they didn’t dare to say it aloud, they had to admit that the Jiuyou Darkbird’s flying skills were horrific, to the point of making so many people airsick simultaneously.
“Damn, Bai Legend, did you literally pass through the secret realm?” Looking at their disheveled appearances, Luo Xiang, who had been waiting nearby, couldn’t help but laugh.
“Do you have a problem with that?”
Bai Heguang gave Luo Xiang a sidelong glance and, after noticing Luo’s innocent look, turned to Chun Yushui and said, “Just as you reported, there are indeed remnants of dead bodies inside, but they’ve lost their activity. As long as we don’t open the secret realm, it won’t pose a threat.”
Upon hearing Bai Heguang blurt out such confidential information in front of Bai Qi and others, even the usually laid-back Chun Yushui felt somewhat helpless. Still, considering Bai Heguang’s legendary status, he simply nodded and said, “We’ve started to seal off the other irrelevant entrances to the secret realm. No one else, except for us and the Thirteenth Bureau, can get in.” No more entries permitted?
He had been thinking of finding an opportunity to engage with Mountain Giant. He knew by common sense that a gravity field could be beneficial to Alpha’s gravity amplification ability.
If not for these advantages, at least he could have claimed some credit.
And Morning Star… he’d totally forgotten to claim some credit earlier. What a loss!
While Bai Qi was regretting, Luo Xiang walked over to him and said, “How does it feel to be involved in such a large-scale exploration of a secret realm?”
It s okay, just a bit short of a dinner party.”
Bai Qi rolled his eyes at Luo Xiang’s gloating face and retorted, “You went into the secret realm too, didn’t you, Instructor Luo? Why did you come out first?” Luo Xiang shrugged and replied, “No choice, I accidentally woke those things up and had to come out for reinforcements.”
Those things?
Bai Qi twitched at the corner of his eyes and said, “Don’t tell me that the Blood of Death was awakened by you?”
“Kind of.”
Bloody hell, so the real culprit turned out to be him! If it hadn’t been for having the Evolution Egg, wouldn’t Alpha and Gamma have been totally wasted?
Oh well, maybe not. The Celestial power of Morning Star could remove Blood of Death as well, but they were bound to be seriously injured.
This time was an accident, but don’t worry, I’ll compensate you enough.” Patting Bai Qi’s shoulder, Luo Xiang said, “You must be tired from this ordeal Go rest first. Once I finish up here, I’ll take you back to the headquarters.” “Back to headquarters?”
Bai Qi was taken aback. He had initially thought they would be out for a long while. Were they returning so soon?
“What? Are you planning on sticking around at the Thirteenth Bureau?” As soon as Luo Xiang uttered those words, Bai Qi felt Bai Heguang’s gaze fall on him. He immediately felt his body giving out shudders, and hastily said, “I’m tired. Give me a break. Bye.”
With that, Bai Qi immediately headed for his room.
Spreading rumors in front of a bunch of association Beast Masters and in front of Bai Heguang himself.
This guy was really stirring the pot. Bai Qi was concerned that if he stayed around Luo too long, he’d end up getting sold out.
