Chapter 19 Feng Lingcan Lost His Spiritual Soul
I gently placed the cleaned glasses back on the rack, stretching out a big lazy yawn, I’m so tired.
“Grumble~~” My stomach growled, the pains of being mortal, your stomach gets hungry and won’t let you be.
I turned and left Xuanyuan Chen’s mirror storage, closing the door behind me, because Xuanyuan Chen’s broken shadow does not allow me to eat in there, so I have to go to the kitchen.
In the long corridor, I saw Xuanyue’s figure, her hand had healed, and she was heading towards the stairs, these days she had rarely been seen leaving her room.
As I followed her, the entire Palace suddenly trembled slightly, and the light outside the window changed color, as beautiful as the Northern Lights!
I stared blankly for a while, in nine out of ten sci-fi movies, the Northern Lights are never a good sign!
I immediately ran to the window to look at the Northern Lights, but found that they were shooting out from the glass greenhouse in the backyard, and Xuanyue was running there with an anxious expression.
Could Xuanyue have done something?
I unhesitantly ran downstairs, I want to be a good yes-man.
This was the first time I entered the Palace’s garden, I found that while it looked small from above, when I actually ran in, the garden was huge, with trimmed rose walls on both sides, the one-person-tall walls forming two large mazes, luckily the glass greenhouse was not in the maze, but right in front.
The dazzling Northern Lights were now shooting out from the huge greenhouse, dyeing the Palace’s sky into a mottled color.
I quietly followed, the giant greenhouse was like a huge palace, filled with lush flowers, hanging floral vines like curtains. I lifted the vines and entered, then saw the source of the Northern Lights – it was a huge portal!
The portal was in the center of the greenhouse, the ancient blue-gray stone, the circular stone arch surrounded by ancient symbols, just like the portal in “Stargate”.
The portal was on a pyramid-shaped stone platform, and Xuanyue was standing in front of it. For a moment, I even thought she was meeting her lover in a secret rendezvous!
I stepped up the stone stairs, one by one, and when I reached the top, Xuanyue immediately turned around, seeing it was me, she sternly shouted: “This is no place for you to be!”
As soon as she said that, someone emerged from the portal, long, straight black hair flying in the Northern Lights – it was Xuanyuan Chen! My godfather!
Seeing me standing next to Xuanyue, he was also slightly surprised, but did not chase me away like Xuanyue.
Seeing him come out, Xuanyue no longer paid attention to me, but looked at Xuanyuan Chen: “Is everyone alright?”
Following him, Senior Baiying also came out, with the long-absent Guangshen and Hongri by her side. When they saw me, they seemed very surprised, Guangshen’s astonished gaze lingered on me, studying me. Hongri stood beside him, his expression displeased and a hint of worry.
Xuanyuan Chen remained silent after Xuanyue’s question, his expression becoming increasingly grave.
I caught a whiff of an ominous scent, my heartbeat started pounding anxiously, could something have happened to someone? Please don’t let it be Mo Ming.
“What’s wrong?” Xuanyue asked worriedly.
Senior Baiying also silently lowered her face, stepping aside, Hongri quickly pulled Guangshen to the side, no longer letting him look at me, and then I saw Fu Su and Mo Ming supporting Feng Lingcan from the portal!
“Master?” Mo Ming was somewhat surprised to see me, but my gaze was fixed on Feng Lingcan’s unconscious face and could not be torn away: “What happened to Feng Lingcan?” I asked anxiously.
Xuanyuan Chen’s brow furrowed even deeper, even the mischievous Fu Su’s expression became grave, as if he had no mood to tease me or take advantage of me with his words.
This was the first time I saw the silent Fu Su, it’s clear the situation must be very serious!
At this moment, I had a slightly masochistic hope that Fu Su would come up and disdainfully raise his eyebrow at me, saying something like “You’re so worried about me, waiting for me to come back?”
Only then would I be sure that no one is in trouble!
“What happened to Feng Lingcan?!” I urgently looked at Mo Ming, but Mo Ming also fell silent, still supporting the seemingly lifeless Feng Lingcan.
“What happened to Lingcan?” Xuanyue, calmer than me, seemed more composed and collected, they must have experienced too many such scenes, so she could remain so calm.
Everyone was silent.
Xuanyuan Chen furrowed his brows: “Fell into a trap, lost his spiritual soul.”
What? Lost… his spiritual soul?!!
My heart immediately clenched, feeling like my breathing was about to stop! This good Feng Lingcan, this kind and enthusiastic Feng Lingcan, the only Palace member willing to help this mortal like me, lost his spiritual soul!
My ears buzzed, I was completely dazed!
“What?!” Xuanyue also lost her calm and collectedness, immediately saying, “Then what are you all still doing here? Go find him! I’ll go too!” Xuanyue was about to rush in, but Xuanyuan Chen immediately stretched out his hand to stop her: “Xuanyue! Calm down! Since someone has set a trap in the Demon Realm, we don’t know how many more traps there are! The Demon Realm is very dangerous now, I can’t let any of you lose your spiritual souls again!”
Xuanyue slapped Xuanyuan Chen’s hand that was restraining her: “Now that Lingcan’s spiritual soul is left in the Demon Realm, it’s even more dangerous! I don’t care, I’m going to save him!”
“I’ve had enough!” Fu Su let go of Feng Lingcan’s hand, letting Mo Ming support him alone, glaring obliquely at Xuanyuan Chen, “I say, you’re not afraid, are you.”
Xuanyuan Chen immediately gave him a cold look, the lenses of his glasses flashing with a chill: “What do you think?”
“Tch, then go!” Fu Su directly turned around, chuckling lightly, “Hmph, since not many people in this world like me anyway, it doesn’t matter if I die there~~~ And that stupid woman has such a devastated expression, it just makes me angry! I don’t want to see her!” With that, he directly entered the portal, not even looking back.
The stupid woman he mentioned… could it be me?
“Fu Su! Wait for me!” Xuanyue immediately followed, turning to look at Xuanyuan Chen at the portal entrance: “I know you want to ensure the safety of all of us, but I can’t let Lingcan die like this, it’s also a matter of the dignity of our entire Palace, even if it means death! I must defend the dignity of our Xuanyue Clan!” With that, Xuanyue also entered the portal without looking back.
Xuanyuan Chen’s brows were tightly furrowed, his expression almost freezing over. Although he didn’t allow Fu Su and Xuanyue to continue adventuring in the Demon Realm, he also didn’t stop them. So he also wants to go rescue Feng Lingcan.
Senior Baiying approached me, smiling at me: “Don’t worry, we’ll rescue Lingcan, he’s one of us, we’ll risk our lives to bring him back.” Baiying’s solemn gaze made me feel much better, she looked at Xuanyuan Chen, who looked at her seriously: “Catch up to them, don’t let them wander off, this operation requires everyone’s participation to avoid traps.”
“Understood.” Senior Baiying’s composed expression was particularly reassuring, she quickly leapt into the portal, swallowed by the Northern Lights in an instant.
“I’ll go too!” Mo Ming looked at Xuanyuan Chen, who said to him: “Lingcan needs someone to look after him.”
“I’ll do it!” I realized I finally had a use. Xuanyuan Chen’s glasses flashed, his gaze behind the glare becoming somewhat blurry. I immediately looked at Mo Ming: “Mo Ming, you go, I’m here, and be careful yourself!”
Mo Ming paused, a faint smile appearing on his face. He immediately nodded, gently laying Feng Lingcan on the ground, then leapt into the portal.
Hongri pulled Guangshen to the portal entrance, Guangshen turned his head and looked at me, raising the corners of his lips to lick them: “I think I need to replenish some strength…”
“Go!” Suddenly, Xuanyuan Chen directly reached out and pushed him into the portal, Hongri tumbling in together. In the quiet greenhouse, under the round glass dome, only Xuanyuan Chen and I remained.
He looked at me seriously: “Lingcan has lost his spiritual soul, his physical body cannot remain in the Demon Realm, so we sent him back first. You stay here and take good care of him, we’ll be back soon.”
“Understood.” I sat by Feng Lingcan’s side, my gaze fixed on his face.
Xuanyuan Chen also disappeared into the portal, the Northern Lights gradually fading, leaving only the arched stone gate. I looked at the unconscious Feng Lingcan, my heart anxious and impatient, I can’t just sit here, I’ll go mad with worry!
I have to do something for Feng Lingcan, he’s always been the one helping me, and I couldn’t help him at all. I can’t just sit here, I looked up at the portal, the Demon Realm…
Suddenly, I made a decision in my mind, I’m going to the Demon Realm!
Yes, I’m more familiar with the Demon Realm than them, because I have friends there!
But how do I go?
The portal has already closed, even if I know how to activate it, can I go in this state?
Whenever I go, it’s like my soul is leaving my body, so the air of the Demon Realm doesn’t harm me at all, but if I go in this state, won’t the Demon Realm’s air poison my mortal body?
So I still have to go in that state.
But how do I get into that state?
I frowned, pondering deeply, my brain whirring at super speed. I remembered, every time I went there, it was after coming into contact with things from the Demon Realm.
The first time, I touched the Faceless Monster.
The second time, I touched the Soul-Devouring Beast.
So I need to find something related to the Demon Realm.
Right, Feng Lingcan!
I immediately fixed my gaze on his body, he just came back from the Demon Realm, he must be covered in…
I quickly rummaged through his hair, and found it!
Demon Realm Ashes!
I immediately called Jiang Yan, his phone was singing like a zombie again…
Pick up the phone, Jiang Yan, aren’t you going to drive me crazy?!
Suddenly, a blue light shot out from the phone, and Jiang Yan was lying in front of me, eyes barely open, curled up in the blanket: “What’s wrong… Xiao Lan, ah~~~~~~~~”
“Jiang Yan! Feng Lingcan’s spiritual soul is lost in the Demon Realm, I’ve decided to go find him, quickly bring my gun–” I said in one breath, Jiang Yan suddenly stood up, still in his little bear pajamas, and below… Ah! Ah! Ah! No pants… just his bare legs…
The long legs showed under the nightshirt, so sexy, but now is not the time to flaunt sexiness!
