Imperial Treasure
Chapter 1303 - 749: Lost Lands
Sui Yi lowered his eyes. Most people imprisoned in this Tower of Curses have bloodlines and spiritual essence stronger than the average person.
The goal of the Divine Race is to foster Divine Descendants with these people’s bloodlines. Perhaps that Lost Land is indeed a special area.
This also proves that the Divine Race truly has a way to access the Lost Land, and the method mentioned by Wu Jue to return is likely true.
"Do you know how to enter the Lost Land? And where is it?"
The elderly man was already extremely weakened at this moment, unable to speak clearly, only trembling as he uttered... "Dong... Dongming... There’s a path... Go..."
Then the voice was gone.
Shi Feixuan looked at this master, possibly an even greater one than a Great Grandmaster, as he passed away... her expression was complicated.
Perhaps this world is even more terrifying than she imagined.
Sui Yi gently closed the elder’s eyes.
"Teacher, do you want to go to the Lost Lands?"
Every world, perhaps, is a different small fragment.
I wonder if there are people from the modern times.
The group descended from the mountain and administered potions to Qin Shubao and others, and they finally awakened one by one...
Qi Lian awoke on the third day and saw Wu Xie, her expression somewhat dazed, then her gaze fell on Sui Yi.
That look seemed to span thousands of miles... Her expression shifted several times, hard to restrain, before she regained some calm, lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "Wu Xie, can you go out first?"
It’s a bit strange. Between husband and wife,... she seems too distant and indifferent.
Wu Xie nodded, hoarsely: "Alright."
Only Sui Yi and Qi Lian were left in the tent. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Sui Yi handed over a cup of hot tea, and Qi Lian’s eyes reddened. Due to weakness, she could only kneel partially on the bed, pressing her hands against the bedboard, lowering her head, and sobbing.
Originally, Qi Lian was quite mature as a woman, whether in figure or temperament, at least that’s how Shi Feixuan and others saw it. But at this moment, she was like a child, joyful yet anxious, as if believing the cake in her hands didn’t belong to her...
"Imperial Crown..."
Sui Yi’s pupils also reddened a bit. He pulled her hand, placing the warm tea in her palm, closed her hand gently, and said softly: "I’m sorry."
Qi Lian’s expression suddenly became very strange, yet she dared not look too much at Sui Yi... instead, she appeared somewhat dazed and lost.
Sui Yi naturally felt much freer, noticing her strangeness, so he said: "In the past... didn’t she ever apologize?"
This tone already revealed something.
Qi Lian was stunned, but saw Sui Yi saying quite seriously...: "I can’t remember the past... but I can roughly confirm that my connection with your High Priest is indeed profound."
Words like these, Qi Lian naturally understood. Simply put, Sui Yi admitted he is the High Priest, but today is not like the past.
"I understand... I don’t blame Your Majesty... You were wronged by those scoundrels, imprisoned in the Ninefold Demon Tower, suffered the Ninety-Nine Reincarnations that extinguished your flesh and Divine Soul. Just to be alive is already a great joy to Qi Lian. How can one ask for more... Besides, you still remember Qi Lian, don’t you..."
Qi Lian’s words instead left Sui Yi quite befuddled.
The Ninefold Demon Tower, she had already remembered when she was at the Ancient City of Loulan. At that time, she realized it was related to the High Priest, and later repeatedly confirmed her connection with the High Priest, naturally understanding she couldn’t disentangle from the Ninefold Demon Tower, yet she hadn’t anticipated this.
Ninety-Nine Reincarnations, extinguishing flesh and Divine Soul...
Sui Yi thought of the high tower on the Gana Grassland.
"The Ninefold Demon Tower... is that the one on the grassland?"
Qi Lian shook her head: "That’s a replica... incomparable to the true Ninefold Demon Tower. But I also have not seen the real Ninefold Demon Tower; I wasn’t allowed to participate in the Demon Tower showdown back then and was knocked unconscious and taken away by Senior Sister... When I awoke, the world had already changed its face."
Demon Tower showdown? It seems asking Qi Lian won’t yield much more, Sui Yi mused for a moment and mentioned her experiences in the Ancient City of Loulan...
"It should have been done by Senior Brother Loulan... Senior Brother Loulan is also still around..." Qi Lian seemed to be half joyful, half sorrowful, with painful memories of lost comrades but also happiness for survivors.
Even though back then they weren’t close with Loulan, being senior brothers and sisters, but since the High Priest has lost memories, she won’t speak ill of anyone...
Initially, Qi Lian felt some hesitation towards Sui Yi, also because of Sui Yi’s role as High Priest, although consistently not serious, always distant towards others... When Sui Yi inquired about how the High Priest used to be, Qi Lian hesitated a moment before saying: "Your Majesty always resided in the Weiyang Palace, for years and years only yourself there,... disliking company and servitude. We, these wizards, although affiliated under your banner, in reality, you never took apprentices. It’s just that the palace required wizard rituals, His Majesty established the Witch Spirit Court, and you regularly taught witchcraft and principles there, which is why we are all considered your disciples..."
