Chapter 320 The Past of Taiyuan 6
The guardian beast of Taiyuan and the sacred serpent of Cangling sacrificed themselves to create a barrier.
Yuan Wu, who had been forcibly driven away, stood outside the barrier, looking at the flowing black and white colors on it, a mocking glint in his eyes: "You think you can save those people like this?"
Yuan Wu sneered, then raised his hand to form a hand seal, unleashing a powerful force that struck the barrier. Just as the force was about to hit the barrier, a white shadow flashed past, blocking Yuan Wu's attack in front of the barrier.
"Moonlight." The power dissipated, and Yuan Wu looked at the woman blocking the barrier, his voice slightly cold: "Regretful?"
Yuehua lowered her hand, her tone even colder than Yuanwu's: "Yuanlong and Baixue sacrificed themselves, borrowing the power of heaven. If you try to break this barrier, the commotion you cause will inevitably attract the true gods. If you want to confront them, I don't want to expose myself yet."
Yuan Wu narrowed his eyes and stared intently at Yuehua, who allowed him to scrutinize her.
Yuan Wu looked at it for a while before saying, "If you can't get the Taiyuan Seal, you won't be able to find Taiyuan."
“I do want to find Taiyuan, but I want to find him alive, not dead.” Yuehua said coldly, “Although I am a true god, there are more than just me in the Divine Land. If our cooperation is exposed, how many true gods do you think the two of us can deal with?”
“That makes sense.” Yuan Wu looked at Yuehua: “If you’re not in a hurry, then naturally I’m not in a hurry either.”
Yuehua glanced at him, said nothing more, and vanished the moment she turned around.
Seeing Yuehua leave, Yuan Wu left a portion of the Yuan Clan's power there before departing.
The scene disappeared, and Ling Yi opened his eyes, looking at the dragon's skeleton.
The barrier set up by Yuanlong and Baixue through their self-sacrifice was still in place, preventing anyone other than members of the Taiyuan Ancient Clan from entering. Yet, she managed to teleport directly in.
How was she allowed in?
Could she be a member of the Taiyuan ancient clan?
Or is it because she was able to enter because she is the master of Yuanlong?
Too many questions lingered, but Ling Yi had no memory of them and therefore no way of knowing. He put aside what he couldn't understand and turned to think about other things.
Yuan Wu attacked the Taiyuan Ancient Clan because of the Taiyuan Seal. According to Yuanlong's memories, the Taiyuan Seal is the key to opening the tomb of 'Taiyuan', and Taiyuan is the person that the Moonflower True God is looking for.
Yuehua sought out Taiyuan, seemingly because she didn't believe he was dead. Moreover, judging from her attitude when talking to Yuanwu, she and Yuanwu were on equal footing, rather than Yuehua being coerced.
The reason why Yuehua sought out Taiyuan is clear, but Yuanwu interfered and was willing to slaughter his clan for the Taiyuan Seal. It's impossible that he was also after Taiyuan like Yuehua. Even if he was after Taiyuan, it could only be because of something Taiyuan possessed.
The person or thing that a person goes to great lengths to find is either something that is beneficial to them or something that poses a threat to them.
Since we're already here, let's go take a look.
Just as Ling Yi was thinking, a slight noise came from not far away. Ling Yi turned his head sharply to look in that direction, but knowing that only the ancient clansmen protected by Yuanlong and Bai Xue were inside the barrier, he did not make a move directly. The person who made the noise knew that he had been exposed when he saw Ling Yi looking over. He stood up from his prone position and looked at Ling Yi, who was standing in front of the skeletons of Yuanlong and Bai She: "Who are you? Why were you able to enter the barrier?"
Ling Yi looked at the woman in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly. The first arrow that Yuehua shot was aimed at a child. Although the woman in front of him had grown up, it was not difficult to see her childhood appearance.
Ling Yi called out, "Sang Ye."
Upon hearing Ling Yi call out her name, Sang Ye's eyes showed surprise, but she immediately became wary: "Who exactly are you?"
Ling Yi said calmly, "I also want to know my origins."
Sang Ye was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, but quickly realized what it meant and asked, "You have amnesia?"
"Hmm." Ling Yi looked at Sang Ye: "I came here by chance to learn that I had some connection with Yuanlong and wanted to find my memories, but I only found out that Yuanlong is no longer here."
"As for your name, I know it from Yuanlong's memories."
Upon hearing this, Sang Ye's face was filled with disbelief: "You can actually see the memories of the Abyss Dragon!?"
Before Ling Yi could answer, Sang Ye quickly stepped forward: "You can appear inside the barrier and see Yuanlong's memories, so I believe you have a connection with Yuanlong. In that case, can you save the clan leader?"
Ling Yi wanted to know about the Taiyuan Seal, and the clan leader in Yuanlong's memory was obviously someone who knew about it. Ling Yi did not refuse and nodded: "Take me to see him."
Sang Ye immediately led Ling Yi to their residence. After walking for about fifteen minutes, Ling Yi saw a village in the distance.
There were some people outside the village. When they saw Sang Ye return, they smiled and were about to greet her when they suddenly saw Ling Yi walking out from behind Sang Ye. Their expressions immediately became wary: "Who are you?"
Upon seeing this, Sang Ye immediately stepped forward and told them how Ling Yi had appeared there. She also said that Ling Yi could save the clan leader. When the other members of the ancient clan heard that Ling Yi could save the clan leader, they did not stop Sang Ye from bringing Ling Yi into the village. However, they were still worried, so they followed Sang Ye and took Ling Yi to the clan leader's house.
The chieftain's house was at the very end of the village. Upon arriving, Sang Ye immediately led Ling Yi inside. Two young men were guarding the chieftain inside. Seeing Sang Ye appear, they asked, "Why did you come here? Has something happened?"
Sang Ye explained his purpose to the two men. After listening, one of them left and went into the inner room. After a while, an old and weak voice came from inside the room: "Come in."
Sang Ye led Ling Yi inside. As soon as they entered the house, Ling Yi saw an old man with white hair. The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and his skin was like the bark of a withered tree, clinging to his bones. He was frighteningly thin.
With just one glance, Ling Yi could tell that the old man was beyond medical help and did not have much time left.
As Ling Yi sized up the old man, the old man was also sizing up Ling Yi. His eyes, which had been difficult to open recently, were now wide open as he stared intently at Ling Yi.
No one spoke in the room. After an unknown amount of time, the old man said, "The barrier set up by Yuanlong and Baixue won't last long. Others could have easily broken in at this time, but you didn't make a move. I believe what you say."
"Since you believe me, I will speak frankly." Ling Yi said indifferently, "You were injured by Yuan Wusuo back then. His power is special and has been eroding your body all these years. You have reached your limit by now, and no method can save you."
"You're talking nonsense!" The young man in charge of taking care of the clan chief shouted when he heard this, then looked at Sang Ye: "Didn't you say she could save the clan chief?"
Before Sang Ye could answer, the clan leader's voice rang out: "You're right, I've been able to feel my body being eroded..."
“It’s not as simple as erosion.” Ling Yi interrupted him: “The reason I say that Yuan Wu’s power is special is because his power can deepen the desires in people’s hearts. The deeper the desires, the easier it is to be controlled by him, but you have not been controlled by his power.”
