Long Ziye was too strange, so Ye Qinghan had no choice but to be careful.
They ate a bit of mystic tiger meat, but it did contain a lot of blood essence energy, so the four of them were full of energy and fatigue.
The ghostly wind outside was even more sinister, like hell on earth. How did an ancient city become like this? Now that no one cared about it, there must be something behind it.
"Boss Long, you're an overgod, right?"
The inn was silent for a long time, so Ye Qinghan went straight to the point.
Long Ziye knew he couldn't hide it from the four of them. After all, they were all monsters among monsters, so he waved his hand to signal Big Pockmark, Second Bro Ma, and Third Bro Teng to leave.
The three of them didn't hesitate and immediately returned downstairs, not daring to peek at the discussion above.
"That's right. I'm an Overgod. You must be very curious as to why a mighty Overgod like me would come to such a remote place and open an inn for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, right?" Long Ziye said calmly.
Ye Qinghan and the others nodded. Anyone would be cautious and curious about something like this.
"I'm a descendant of Flowersea City, and I'm investigating the cause of its destruction. Flowersea City has a long history, and it has survived countless eras without falling. It has countless experts, and before it was destroyed, there was an Overgod. However, it was destroyed in a single night, and its vitality was extinguished. Flowersea was bathed in blood, and half the sky was dyed red. As a result, the sea of flowers withered. What was once a paradise on earth has now become a desolate place."
Ye Qinghan didn't interrupt Long Ziye. She paused for a moment before continuing, "Only a few villages managed to escape the calamity. At night, the wind blows the sand away, and the cries of ghosts and wolves can be heard from time to time. It's even more terrifying than hell. Every night, the ghostly wind is like a spatial storm. Only a few special buildings in the city survived. Even the overgods were swept away by the storm. Everyone says that there must have been some injustice done to Flowersea City, but none of the overgods back then stepped forward to investigate this matter. I came here to find out who was so cruel as to destroy an entire city in a single night. Even the overgods were nailed to death in the overgod's residence, their faces filled with fear and unwillingness!"
At this point, the killing intent in Long Ziye's eyes intensified. His slender fingers pierced through the metal table.
"You must be the orphan of Huahai City, right?" Ye Qinghan asked tentatively when he saw Long Ziye's anger.
Long Ziye's eyes flashed coldly as he stared at Ye Qinghan.
Emperor Ye took a step forward, wanting to pull out the Berserk Blade from his back and stared at Long Ziye.
Zixian and Dongqin were also very vigilant and stared at him.
Ye Qinghan didn't move. He just looked at Long Ziye calmly and whispered, "We're only from a small plane and have no connection with the Dragonline Plane. Boss Long, please don't be hostile. I just want to find out how Flowersea City was destroyed."
Long Ziye didn't admit his identity, nor did he need to. He couldn't deny it either. "Back then, Flowersea City was extremely powerful. Some said that it was the wrath of the heavens, but I don't believe it was. Moreover, the overgods were very lenient towards the people and focused on economic development. They never bullied the people and won the hearts of the people. If it was the wrath of the heavens, then the heavens are too blind!"
"Boss Long, you've been investigating for so long. What did you find?" Ye Qinghan suddenly thought of his own Kuanglong Empire. Flowersea City's management was the same as Kuanglong Manor's, so it probably offended someone. However, the overgod of Flowersea City wasn't as lucky as him. He had the help of the Nine Remoteness Lord, while the overgod was alone.
"There aren't many clues. Back then, there were more than one overgod involved. Otherwise, Overgod Flowing Light would've resisted," Long Ziye said in a low voice.
"Flowing Light? The Time Overgod who was said to be able to turn back time? "Zixian and Dongqin were both people with inheritances, so they had some understanding of the upper planes. At this moment, they couldn't help but ask at the same time.
"Yes," Long Ziye replied solemnly.
"I seem to remember Master saying that, but I was still young back then. She said that Flowing Light's mistake was that he was too lenient. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been impossible for the Dragonline Plane to be unified … Right, I also remember Master saying that Flowing Light was met by four overgods. It seemed like they were discussing something, but the discussion fell through. After he returned, he met with a mishap. I suspect that the destruction of Flowersea City has something to do with those four overgods." Dongqin thought for a moment, recalling every word that the Celestial Treasure Battle Body had said to her back then.
Long Ziye's eyes flashed, and he stood up. He stared at Dongqin and asked in a low voice, "Who met Flowing Light back then?"
Dongqin frowned and tried hard to recall, but back then, it was just her Master's sigh. She didn't listen carefully, so she didn't think that it was related to the destruction of Flowersea City.
Back then, Flowing Light had a very good reputation in the Dragonline Plane. His character and appearance were first-rate, and he was deeply loved by some female cultivators. There was no lack of female cultivator overgods who followed him. The Light Overgod and the Celestial Treasure Battle Body were also quite fond of him, but he rejected them all. However, it didn't stop some people from pursuing him. Even after he died, some people still felt sad for him.
"Let me think. Master seemed to be talking to herself back then. Her voice wasn't loud, and I was too young back then. I don't remember at all, nor did I care." Dongqin smiled bitterly.
"Please help me. Think again. Even a word or two would be good." Long Ziye's jade-like arms trembled slightly. She was clearly excited.
The meeting between the overgods back then was very secretive. Even the Zi Family didn't have records of it. The fact that the Celestial Treasure Battle Body of the previous generation knew meant that her relationship with Flowing Light wasn't ordinary.
The inn fell into silence. Apart from the whistling of the ghostly wind and the hair-raising cry of a baby, there was no other sound.
"There's someone called Liu … Liu … Liu something." Dongqin's enchanting face was filled with anxiety, but she didn't expect it to be so different.
"Flowing Light Ghost Daoist?" Long Ziye asked tentatively.
"Yes, yes! That's the name. He's called Flowing Light Ghost Daoist. "Dongqin immediately revealed her wrinkles and said happily.
Long Ziye took a deep breath. Her voice was a little hoarse as she growled, "That's impossible! They were fellow disciples. One controlled time, the other controlled space. Why didn't he help his own junior brother, but help someone else kill his own junior brother? "
Ye Qinghan and the others didn't know about Flowing Light Ghost Daoist's prestige in the Dragonline Realm at this moment. The Celestial Treasure Battle Body of the previous generation had died of depression, but he was still alive. It was clear that his cultivation and strength had reached the peak of perfection.
"I heard from my master that back then, Sovereign God Liu Guang seemed to have foreseen something. However, there was nothing she could do about it. She could only tell her all about her whereabouts. However, as to why she told her, I have no idea." Dong Qin continued.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist. I'll definitely repay your kindness!" Long Ziye bowed to Dongqin.
I'm an adult, so I'll definitely be busy during the new year. I can't possibly abandon my home for the sake of work. Everyone, please be considerate. I'll start making up for it this afternoon.
