My Master Disconnected Yet Again Chapter 266

Chapter 266 - Discovering the Reason

Yi Qing paused and instinctively looked in to scan his own primordial spirit. He turned pale suddenly. “I thought it was because I have a new body that-”

“Quite the opposite!” Lonemoon answered. “It is because your soul is incomplete that your body looks like that.”

“…” Yi Qing frowned, his expression darkening.

“And then Bai Ze-”

“Me?” Bai Ze paused.

“That day, when you fought with Qian Yue, we were right beside you.” Lonemoon pointed to a certain foodie beside him. “She was the one who realised there was a problem with you. That was why we decided to follow you to Bai Yun Mountain.”

“Shen…” Bai Ze’s heart fell for a second as he looked at Shen Ying, as if recalling the rejection from earlier. His expression crumpled and he looked absolutely defeated. A second later, he said, “But… my primordial spirit is fine.”

“Your primordial spirit is fine, but I’m not sure about the other parts of your soul.”

Bai Ze stared back at him. What did he mean?

“The lake at the bottom of Bai Yun Mountain is filled with demonic beasts, right?” Lonemoon rolled his eyes at the foodie. “Didn’t you bring Shen Ying there to see them yesterday? Those demonic beasts weren’t there before, were they?”

“…” They really weren’t there before.

“Do you know where they came from?”

Bai Ze paused. “I don’t… know.” They only appeared in recent years.

“I remember when we were in the Three Azure Realms, you stayed at the Yi Family’s abode for hundreds of thousands of years,” Lonemoon continued. “Not a single demonic beast in the Mirage Sea dared to come onto the shore. When you returned to the Divine World, your God Power should have gotten stronger. Why is it that the demonic beasts started appearing in your own territory? And the were beasts with no intelligence or soul whatsoever at that?”

“Well…” He had never thought about this. At that time, all he thought about was to keep them until Shen Ying came so that he could make her happy.

“The only explanation is that your soul has a problem as well and that is affecting your skills. But the impact is small. You might not even have noticed it.” Lonemoon poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and continued, “You’re a divine being. Demonic beasts with intelligence and souls would definitely know that you’re powerful and would not dare to come close. Lower-level demonic beasts can only use their instincts to sense when there is danger. They probably don’t even know who you are.” Bai Yun Mountain was a place with rich God Power and was thus ideal for training. Since there was a problem with Bai Ze’s soul, these low-leveled demonic beasts probably did not sense that there was any danger and thus decided to make a home for themselves here.

Bai Ze fell silent. All of it sounded entirely plausible. That was why Shen Ying was worried yesterday and went with him to fish? Yet, she said that she did not like him at all! He was heartbroken!

“Elder, you mean to say that all three of us have a remnant soul missing from our bodies, and we have not realised it?” Xuan Tong looked worried.

“You are indeed missing a remnant soul, and we have found that remnant soul of yours. We just have not found a way to return it to your body. But we’re just guessing about Yi Qing and Bai Ze.” Lonemoon frowned. “The remnant soul is different from the other parts of the soul. We have no idea how to check if their souls are whole.”

“I have a way,” Bai Ze suddenly said.

All of them turned to look at him

Bai Ze flicked his wrist and immediately, a huge bronze mirror appeared in his hand. “This is the Life Mirror – it is my prized dharma artifact. With this mirror, one can see into his previous and present lives. But it only works with a whole soul. Without a whole soul, the mirror will not reflect anything.” That’s how the mirror would help them determine if they were missing a remnant soul.

Lonemoon’s eyes brightened. He immediately carried Yi Qing down from the chair. “Quick, look into it.”

Yi Qing got carried in front of the mirror before he even had a chance to think about it. He and Bai Ze both exchanged a hard glare before Yi Qing looked into the mirror.

Bai Ze already activated the Life Mirror in his hands. There was a white flash in the mirror, but everything was just a blur of white fog. Only Father Niu’s reflection was visible in it – and Yi Qing was not in his arms.

The three of their expressions fell immediately. Indeed, they were right. Bai Ze and Chef both had problems with their souls.

“The three of us have come into contact with ghost immortals. It must be the same person that’s behind all of this.” Xuan Tong’s face was a mask of worry. “The only question is why does he want the three of our remnant sous?” Remnant souls were different from whole souls – they did not affect the body much when they were missing. Over time, the bodies would recover without it.”

“He might not be after just three.” Shen Ying, who had remained silent the entire time, suddenly spoke. “There are other people who have come into contact with this ghost immortal.”

All of them paused. Yi Qing, who was still being carried by Lonemoon, spoke up, his eyes widening. “The two roleplayers!” He suddenly looked panicked as he turned to face the person at the table. “Master…”

“Let’s go!” Shen Ying dusted her bottom. “I’m full.” From breakfast.

The three of them exchanged glances and immediately drew their flying swords. Bai Ze and Xuan Tong had no choice but to follow them.

“Elder Lonemoon, who are the roleplayers?” Xuan Tong could not help but ask.

“Chef’s cheap parents.”

“…”

Elder Yi Qing’s surname was role? Didn’t divine beings take on their race as their surnames? She had not heard of the surname “role”!

What Shen Ying said was definitely a possibility. If Shortie and the others were missing their remnant souls because they interacted with ghost immortals, then Feng San who had ghost immortals as friends likely also interacted with them. He was so chummy with Zhu Ming and had gone to the Divine Underworld more than once.

As for Long Zhen, although she had not met a ghost immortal, she had taken care of the dragon egg for many years. She did not even sense that there was Yin Qi in the dragon egg. If the ghost immortal took away her remnant soul as well, it was likely that she had not realised.

It was proven that they were not overthinking things. Feng San and Long Zhen’s reflections did not appear at all in Bai Ze’s Life Mirror.

“How can this be?” Long Zhen looked absolutely confused. Given hers and Feng San’s cultivation levels, how could it be that a part of their souls – albeit their remnant souls – got stolen without them even realising?

“According to what I know, ghost immortals’ cultivation levels are all very high. Divine beings of various levels are not even their match. But given my and Little Zhen’s cultivation levels, we can at least draw with them.” Feng San lowered his voice and said, “It is unlikely that there is a ghost immortal out there who is so much stronger than us that he can steal our remnant souls without us even realising. Why is it that we too…”

It was obvious that he could not figure it out. If Yi Qing, their son who ran away with his master, did not suddenly return to tell them this, they would not even have realised that they were missing their remnant soul.

“You can’t guess who might have done it either?” Lonemoon asked anxiously.

The two of them exchanged a look and shook their heads. “We don’t know. What’s more, why would the other party want just our remnant souls?”

“Do you have a way of locating your remnant souls?” Lonemoon asked. They were divine beings afterall.

They shook their heads. “Remnant souls are different from the other parts of one’s soul. We did not even sense that we were missing our remnant souls – how could we sense its position?”

“But we can ask someone why the other party would want remnant souls,” Feng San said.

All of them paused. Bai Ze seemed to suddenly understand something. “Do you mean Hongyu?”

“That’s right!” Feng San nodded. “Supreme Divinity Hongyu is the most ancient divine being in the Divine World. If anyone knows anything about souls, it would be him.”

Long Zhen chimed in, “Then we should immediately head for Ling Tai Mountain.” She turned and the air in the hall suddenly stirred, as if someone was ripping it apart. A black figure suddenly appeared in the hall out of nowhere.

Everyone said that Yi Qing was the number one Sword Cultivator in the world, with a swordsmanship and cultivation that no one could surpass. Whether it was when he was cultivating in the Lower Realm, or when he was in the Ten Heavens of the Upper Realm, he has always been undefeated. Yi Qing laughed and said: “That is because you do not know of my Master. If we speak of cultivation, I am not as good as she by a long mile. Thinking about it, at the start, out of the ten Heavenly Emperors of the Upper Realm, my Master beat up nine, and the one left was myself.” “Master? You actually have a Master! Who? How come we never heard of it?” “My Master is…. Eh? Master? Master! And my Master? Has anyone seen my Master?” A person next to them quietly raised her paw. “I am here!”
