Chapter 394 Li Jie's 'Gift'
What did you draw?
Gilgamesh crossed his arms and asked with great interest.
"It seems to be called [The Law of the End]."
"Very good." Gilgamesh nodded with satisfaction upon hearing Lin Qiye's voice.
Immediately afterwards, Sun Wukong put away the gilded staff in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and signaled to Lin Qiye that they could begin.
"It's my turn next."
A moment later, Lin Qiye opened his eyes with a strange expression.
A life-saving hair?
Sun Wukong also noticed Lin Qiye's change. There were three snow-white hairs on the back of his neck. Apart from the different color, they seemed no different from normal hair.
"Brother Monkey, what is this...?" Lin Qiye smiled wryly, looking helplessly at Sun Wukong, whose face was full of smiles.
"Take it easy. After all, I don't have Old Man Mei's abnormal abilities. This life-saving hair is pretty good; at least it gave you the ability to come back from the dead three times."
"Too."
At this point, Gilgamesh's figure suddenly became ethereal.
"Looks like it's almost time."
Sensing the changes in his own divine power, He sighed softly.
Upon returning this time, he will likely forget his subjects, but...
He has no regrets!
Pulling himself back to reality, Gilgamesh waved his hand, and the dark city-state that the [King's Treasury] had conjured rapidly shrank, becoming a box the size of a palm in less than three breaths.
"Keep this safe. You can keep it until I fully recover."
"With the [Scepter] and [Sword] lost, the only other notable artifacts left in the treasury are the [Holy Grail] and [Star Pentacles]."
"I just got a rough idea of what it's like. After absorbing those gods, the Holy Grail can barely make three more large wishes. Use it as you see fit."
"besides......"
Before He could finish speaking, two streaks of light seemed to be falling rapidly from the horizon toward their location.
"Who goes there!" Sun Wukong frowned, revealing his demonic ape form, exuding an aura that suggested he was ready to fight at the slightest provocation.
However... when He saw that the two gods who had fallen in front of them were weak and looked like dead dogs, He was stunned.
"What's going on...? Are they here to offer some warmth?"
Whether by coincidence or not, just as Gilgamesh was lamenting that the Holy Grail was not nourishing enough, two gods whose consciousness was on the verge of collapse were 'thrown' in front of them.
"How about... we ask?"
This scene left Gilgamesh completely bewildered. To be able to defeat two gods of the highest level like this meant that the person behind it all must have reached an incredibly terrifying level of power.
But... there's no reason not to eat meat that's been delivered right to your mouth, is there?
"No need to ask anymore, I know who sent them here..."
"You know?" Upon hearing Lin Qiye's voice, Sun Wukong and the nearly vanished Gilgamesh asked in unison.
"Yes, it's Brother Li."
"That kid who plays with swords?"
"Correct."
Upon hearing this, both deities nodded in understanding.
If that kid was the one who did it, then it wouldn't be surprising.
"So what do we do now? Use the Holy Grail to take them in?"
"Let's take them. If I'm not mistaken, these two should be the other two gods hidden in the agents' gathering."
"I'm really curious... why Brother Li is here."
Indeed, what is happening now seems outrageous, but it is actually not normal at all.
Putting everything else aside, why Li Jie is here remains a mystery.
Logically, Li Jie should have left Great Xia long ago when he received the mission to go to Utopia. There was no signal in the fog, and apart from the special ability of Memorial to briefly transmit information, there was basically no means of communication. Therefore, Commander Zuo had no opportunity to inform Li Jie of his mission.
Just as he was frantically speculating, faint lights suddenly rose from the two barely breathing deities.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ......
Twelve flying swords burst forth from his body, lining up in front of Lin Qiye and emitting a series of crisp clanging sounds.
what is this?
Brother Li's sword?
How can it be so tiny?
Just as Lin Qiye was about to reach out and touch the comical-looking 'toy flying sword', a flying sword engraved with 'peach blossom' patterns suddenly stepped forward and burrowed into his ear.
what's the situation!
Before he could say anything, a very familiar voice suddenly rang in his mind.
"Seven Nights, these two gods are a gift for you. See you in Asgard."
After he finished speaking, the [Peach Blossom] sword flew out of Lin Qiye's ear canal with great agility.
Accompanied by soft humming.
The twelve flying swords were arranged in a vertical line and flew towards the black-robed figure suspended in mid-air.
Saucy!
Just as Lin Qiye tried to get a clearer look, the figure vanished back into the sky.
"Goodbye Asgard?"
"Where am I going and what am I going to do...?"
"Qiye, what did your brother just say?" Just as Lin Qiye was pondering Li Jie's true intentions, Sun Wukong punched Gilgamesh, who had already dissipated, and walked to his side to ask softly.
"It's the same as saying nothing at all..."
He then repeated what Li Jie had said to Sun Wukong.
"Maybe he meant something else?"
"Let's not talk about this for now." Unable to come up with any results, Lin Qiye decided to put the mystery aside for later.
"Brother Monkey, you've been discharged from the hospital. What's next? Go back to Great Xia?"
"Well, if there's nothing else here, I'd like to go back to Daxia first."
"........"
The two talked for a long time, and just after the Holy Grail had completely absorbed the energy of the two gods, a violent roar came from afar.
"Ok?"
Sun Wukong turned his head, and golden light appeared in his eyes.
"Is it an enemy?" Seeing the former's unusual behavior, Lin Qiye's heart sank, and he asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, but a white-haired woman came and sat on a strange iron block..."
A woman with gray hair?
Iron block?
Sun Wukong's description also piqued Lin Qiye's curiosity. Just as the roaring sound grew closer, Lin Qiye could vaguely make out the figure walking out of the mist.
"commemorate?"
...........
Asgard, the underworld city.
Dressed in a black robe, Si Xiaonan leaped through the gap and flew straight toward the palace where Loki was.
After a moment, she straightened her clothes, calmly pushed open the heavy door and went inside.
"My dearest Xiao Nan, you're back."
"Tell me, have you found... the opportunity to break free from your constraints?"
..........
