Chapter 48 Hitting the Noble One
"Actually, I'm not a good person. I've never thought about repaying the debts I incurred through my own abilities. If you want me to come over, fine, but you have to give each member of the spiritual medium team, including Bu Li, another ten years of lifespan."
The voice on the other end of the phone changed to Wu Tongxuan's, languid yet with a hint of roguishness.
“Deal. I’m at the fasting place now. Wait for me at the entrance. I have some things to take care of, and I’ll come out and meet you when I’m done.”
“Ling Yunxiao, don’t listen to Wu Laogou. We owe you enough, how can we keep troubling you…”
Bu Li on the other end of the phone wanted to say something, but Ling Yunxiao pretended not to hear and hung up. Wu Tongxuan was the vice-captain he had chosen, so it was understandable that he missed his former teammates; ten years of lifespan for each person wasn't a big deal. After all, there was still Yiyu!
Ling Yunxiao looked at Yiyu with burning eyes, and Yiyu felt a chill run down her spine, speeding up the process of creating a clone.
Soon, a nightmare clone stood before Yiyu, its soul just awakening, before it could even utter a word. Ling Yunxiao had already appeared in a flash, his Star Blade leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, and Yiyu's clone was cleaved in two at the waist.
Ling Yunxiao hurriedly went to check the book of people, and after seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
"Kill the babbling clone and gain 10 Reincarnation Power."
The remaining balance of the power of reincarnation.
"That's much better, Master. You must take good care of this delirious fellow; he's my lucky charm."
"Of course, don't worry. As long as I live, he won't die. You just mentioned wanting to form a special team, so I suppose you still have a lot to do. I won't take up any more of your time."
"No, no, no... Master, I have another favor to ask of you. I need to go into the fasting place to find someone. My special team needs to enter the fog and will definitely need a boat, so we desperately need this person."
"Oh? Who?"
"Han Shaoyun."
"There are many people with the ability to banish wind. You can go to the capital to apply for a ban. Han Shaoyun has committed countless crimes and should be imprisoned for life. I cannot let him go easily."
"Master, Han Shaoyun is a very good person. The reason he did so many wrong things is because he was forced to become a believer by that beast Yiyu. He had no choice in the matter! Besides, our team's target is the Mist. I will take him away and will not let him cause any controversy within the Great Xia territory."
At this moment, Yiyu minimized his presence, silently drawing circles in the corner. Fine, fine... when he needs him, he's a benefactor; when he doesn't, he's that beast Yiyu...
"He's now obsessed with dying, and he's as quiet as a wooden statue every day. Go and see for yourself!"
The master sighed. He knew about the past of every prisoner here. Han Shaoyun's only mistake was not having time to commit suicide when he lost all hope, but how could that be considered his fault?
Seeing that the master had relented, Ling Yunxiao got off the carriage and, led by the guards, found Han Shaoyun.
Han Shaoyun walked out looking lifeless, and didn't react much when he saw that it was Ling Yunxiao.
"Han Shaoyun, our Masked Squad has completely wiped out the Ancient God Church. Except for Yuehuai, who is on the run and still being hunted by spirit mediums, the Ancient God Church basically no longer exists. As for Yiyu, he has been imprisoned by the Master and has become a strategic reserve resource."
In other words, I saved your life, restored your freedom, and avenged you. You shouldn't be reacting this way now that you've met your benefactor.
As soon as Ling Yunxiao finished speaking, Han Shaoyun looked up in shock. He had been in the fasting center all along and naturally knew nothing about these things. Upon hearing this, his eyes immediately reddened and he stood up. Then, he knelt down directly before Ling Yunxiao. Just as he was about to kowtow, Ling Yunxiao grabbed him and pulled him up.
"I'm going to hunt outer gods in the mist now, and I need someone with wind-elemental forbidden power to steer me. If you're truly grateful, then come with me into the mist!"
"Very well, it would be my honor to die in the mist for the sake of Great Xia!"
A glint flashed in Han Shaoyun's eyes, and his entire demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation. Ling Yunxiao, however, kicked him, causing him to stumble, and grabbed his arm, striding out of the fasting hall while cursing as he went.
"Can't you understand human language? I said we're going to hunt down Outer Gods, we're going to slay gods, who the hell told you we're going to our deaths? My new special team isn't even fully assembled yet, and you're already saying such unlucky things, you really deserve a beating!"
The two walked out of the fasting hall. Han Shaoyun left the range of the Zhenxu Stele, and his body immediately changed. He, who had been stuck in the Sea Realm for many years, actually stepped directly into the Boundless Realm.
"Hehehe...Captain, I'm here!"
Ling Yunxiao looked at Han Shaoyun in shock. Before he could continue cursing, he heard a lewd laugh.
Wu Tongxuan appeared before Ling Yunxiao with the entire team of spirit mediums. Ling Yunxiao didn't waste any words and took out the Judge's Pen to add ten years to each of their lifespans.
"The effect of borrowing Yang energy to restore lifespan is used on seven people, consuming 210 points of reincarnation power."
The remaining balance of the power of reincarnation.
"I am not the captain. The captain is Wang Mian, also known as Wang Mian of the Masked Squad. Let me introduce our team member Han Shaoyun, who possesses the 079 Forbidden Ruins Great Wind Disaster. When activated, it can cause snowstorms within a ten-mile radius."
Han Shaoyun, let me introduce you. This is Wu Tongxuan, the former deputy captain of the Spirit Medium team. He possesses the Forbidden Ruins Sequence 028, one of the seven 'King Ruins', [Formless]. However, you are probably familiar with his current Forbidden Ruins. He is currently using the Dreamy Divine Ruins, Nightmare Creator.
From now on, Wu Tongxuan will be our vice-captain. You two should get along well.
After Ling Yunxiao finished his introduction, the two exchanged a glance, but showed no intention of getting along. After all, the Spirit Medium team's responsibility was to hunt down extremely dangerous, non-mysterious targets, so they naturally knew who Han Shaoyun was. Moreover, Wu Tongxuan's Divine Ruins were now the same as the delirious murmur that Han Shaoyun hated most in his life.
Ling Yunxiao didn't care about any of that. He led the two of them to the Whirlpool and returned to the headquarters lounge.
"Captain, look, I've found the vice-captain and the junior team members. When are you going to set off with me? There are still two team members we need to pick up personally!"
Ling Yunxiao smiled at Wang Mian, who reluctantly stood up and slowly walked to Ling Yunxiao. After taking a deep breath, he announced his decision.
Let's set off now!
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Ling Yunxiao laughed heartily; he knew he would be able to take Wang Mian away.
"Let's go! We need to find two more people to accompany us to Cangnan, otherwise, Chen Muyi probably won't let them go easily."
Ling Yunxiao led the three to say goodbye to the masked squad in the lounge, promising to send them a replacement member. The four then got into a car arranged by headquarters.
