“Hey!” Shen Ying lifted a hand to greet them, everyone’s eyes became even brighter at once.
The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched before he spoke up. “Yu Hong, why are all of you gathered at the gates of the heavenly palace?”
“Sect Master, Elder Lonemoon…” Yu Hong first looked at Shen Ying, then turned slightly and pointed to the back, replying, “It’s Little Shortie and Junior Sister Chengyu, they…”
All the disciples made way for a puff, then they say, outside the heavenly palace, there was the light of array formations everywhere, several huge array formations appeared in the air at the same time, radiating a faint golden light from time to time, immortal powers surged all around, the shadows of divine power could vaguely be seen.
This was… the Encapsulation Seal Array of the divine race.
Lonemoon was shocked. With a sweep using his divine perception, sure enough, he saw Little Shortie who was manning the array in the eye of it, there were two other figures beside her. One was her Master, Roasted Chicken Gal and Feng Ying.
“Earlier on Little Shortie suddenly came out to set up arrays, all of us don’t know what happened too.” Yu Hong answered.
Lonemoon frowned before instructing in a low voice. “This is an array formation of the divine race, you all cannot go too close, quickly bring everyone back to the sect first.”
“Divine race?” Yu Hong was shocked but did not question further, only looking towards Shen Ying who was in the middle slightly hesitantly. “Sect Master…”
“Don’t worry, we won’t leave for now.”
“Yes.” Yu Hong was delighted, he then turned around and informed all the reluctant disciples that it was time to go.
“Little Shortie is at the eye of the array formation.” Lonemoon carefully examined this sky full of array formations. After finding a way to enter, he then turned back and instructed, “We’ll go over!”
With that said, all three of them flew over directly. In moments, they had passed all the gold light and arrived in the center. After reaching the eye of the array, they then realized that Roasted Chicken Gal seemed to be injured, Feng Ying was carrying her as he stood behind Little Shortie. There was also a circle of a code-like green shield surrounding the two of them.
[Ding! Greetings Big Boss!]
The first one to notice them wasn’t Little Shortie but the parenting system in Feng Ying, even Feng Ying’s body swayed for a moment. Perhaps taking into consideration that he had another person in his arms, the system did not make him drop directly to his knees.
“Sect Master!” Little Shortie exclaimed, then stopping the array formation in her hands and came to her with quick steps. “You’re finally back!”
“Hey, Little Shortie!” Shen Ying waved her hand.
But Lonemoon landed ahead of her and asked urgently. “What exactly has happened?”
“Big Boss!” Feng Ying also rushed over, looking anxiously at Shen Ying as he said, “Could you please save Chengyu quickly? She suddenly fainted, even the system can’t find any problems. As long as you save her, I can even kowtow to you a hundred times.”
“What’s wrong with Roasted Chicken Gal?” Lonemoon frowned.
“It’s because of the River of Forgetfulness!” Little Shortie’s expression darkened as she turned and pointed to a certain spot below. “A problem suddenly occurred with the River of Forgetfulness of the Immortal Realm.”
All three of them looked in the direction she pointed to and subconsciously activated their powers of managers. Almost in a moment, the scenery with Immortal Qi wafting before them changed, a gold river carrying the original source appeared, this was a part of the River of Forgetfulness of the Immortal Realm. Little The array that Little Shortie set up earlier happened to seal up one of the areas and in the middle of that area, was a spot of especially evident black, as if a hole had been opened on the river bed.
“What’s that?” Lonemoon faltered. Why would a hole suddenly appear in the River of Forgetfulness?
“I’m not sure either.” Little Shortie shook her head. “I only sensed the sudden appearance of this hole and the river seemed to be missing a soul. Then Master happened to pass by here and her soul was almost sucked in by this hole too. I stabilized her primordial spirit, but she still remained unconscious.”
Lonemoon glanced at the black hole in the river, then turned towards Yi Qing beside him. “Chef, quickly take a look at Roasted Chicken Gal, what’s wrong with her.”
“Mm.” Yi Qing took a few steps forward, placing a bent finger on Chengyu’s forehead, he sensed carefully and his expression instantly darkened. Suddenly both his hands conjured seals, leaving a mark on her forehead, then he turned and grabbed in the direction of the black hole in the River of Forgetfulness, as if he had held onto something. In the next second, a white glow rushed up from below and sank itself into Chengyu’s forehead.
Roasted Chicken Gal who initially wasn’t breathing at all exhaled at once. The vitality in her body that had stagnated started flowing once more as color gradually returned to her face.
“Little Yu! Little Yu!” Feng Ying was delighted and urgently called out.
“Feng Ying?” Roasted Chicken Gal opened her eyes with slightly confusion, faltering for a moment, her eyes then fixed onto Shen Ying before suddenly widening. “Little Ying! You’re back!” With that said, she pushed the by her side away without any hesitation and threw her arms around Shen Ying.
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Feng Ying: “…”
Indeed, in the eyes of overly obsessed fans, everyone else was invisible.
“Chef.” Lonemoon turned towards Yi Qing. “What you just summoned back from the hole was… Roasted Chicken Gal’s soul power?”
“Mm.” Yi Qing nodded, darting a look at the black hole below before his eyes dimmed again. “Fortunately, it hadn’t gone too far.” Soul power determined the strength of a person’s soul, while losing it doesn’t cause one’s soul to dissipate, the person will be in deep sleep forever. Soul power was an internal energy of the soul, it cannot be separated from the soul at all.
“What exactly is that black hole, why was it able to suck away people’s soul power?”
“It’s not a hole!” Yi Qing’s eyes narrowed. “It’s a crack.”
“Crack?” Lonemoon paused for a moment, his eyes widening moments later. “Plane crack!”
“Mm.”
“Damn it!” He could not help but cursed. This also meant that Roasted Chicken Gal almost fell out of the plane earlier.
Even Little Shortie was stunned. “You’re saying that there was…” An invader that entered here?!
“I cannot confirm it for now, I just discovered it too.” Yi Qing’s expression darkened and he turned to the side to Shen Ying. “Master, about this…”
“Mm, we still have to investigate.” Shen Ying also shook her head.
Both their expressions became even graver, Lonemoon glanced at Roasted Chicken Gal who was still leaning weakly on Shen Ying. “Chef, go seal up the crack, let’s get back before we do anything else.”
Yi Qing nodded, flying down to the black hole. Powers belonging to a manager instantly emitted out, in a short while, the black hole in the River of Forgetfulness was closed.
Little Shortie also retracted those array formations that temporarily sealed the River of Forgetfulness, the entire river resumed its original look again. Chef then flew back, pulling Roasted Chicken Gal out of his Master’s arms, threw her back to Feng Ying, then flew back with Shen Ying.
——————
This unforeseen change with the River of Forgetfulness this time happened too suddenly. More importantly, all three of them totally did not sense anything, even the bracelets on their hands had no warnings. Logically, it was still fine if Lonemoon and Shen Ying did not notice. Chef was the manager, a crack appeared in the plane, yet it managed to dodge his sense, this was too odd.
Little Shortie and Little Shortie checked around the River of Forgetfulness for several days but did not get any clues. However, this was plane was indeed missing a soul and it was nowhere to be found.
“That missing soul, it couldn’t have been absorbed into the chaos, could it?” Lonemoon could not help but guess. The hole in the River of Forgetfulness was a plane crack, without any auras of connecting to another plane, the only possibility was it leading to the chaos.
“It’s highly possible.” Yi Qing nodded, putting the pasty in his hand down as he said, “Master, are you able to check the whereabouts of that soul?” If it wasn’t within the plane, he could not do anything too.
