Countless black tentacles rose from the ruins of the palace to the sky.
Those who were still in this area were caught by the tentacles and turned into dried corpses.
With every breath, hundreds of Demis would be devoured.
New tentacles kept breaking out of the ground and sweeping across the ground.
Nothing could stop these black tentacles, and the buildings collapsed to the ground.
The battle had begun.
A soldier exuding intense Soul Points rushed to the sky.
"That's the National Protector General!" someone shouted.
Everyone turned to look.
Only to see the soldier clasping his hands together and angrily shouting: "Die!"
Intense heat swept across the ground. Many dry objects were ignited by the Fire Elemental energy, giving off intense flames.
He turned into a flaming giant and charged towards the countless black tentacles like a meteor.
This was most likely his Divine Skill, its power had reached its peak.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, 7-8 black tentacles flew towards the flaming giant and struck him.
Instantly, the flames were shattered and fell from the sky.
The scattered flames struck the ground, igniting many areas and turning them into a sea of flames.
A single strike and the National Protector General was killed!
What kind of terrifying power was this?
The readied troops didn't dare to move forward anymore.
Even the strongest of them was killed in a single strike, they would only be seeking death if they went forward.
Countless Combatants fell into despair.
The stronger they were, the more they could sense how terrifying the other party was.
And this was only the monster's tentacles.
What truly caused everyone to tremble was the monster's main body.
Its main body still hadn't appeared!
People fled in all directions in fright.
The chaos had begun.
It was like the end of the world.
All of a sudden, a solemn voice resounded in the sky:
「 The four Pillar Gods are currently on their way to fight against the evil monster, to avoid being caught in the crossfire, everyone is to retreat from the Sovereign District 」
From afar, four blinking sprites of light appeared.
"The Divinities are here!"
The crowd cheered.
The hesitant troops immediately turned around and began to help the crowd quickly retreat.
Quite a few people stopped to observe the situation.
But the Divine Decree had already said for everyone to retreat from this area, how could they be disobeyed?
The soldiers began to chase the crowd away.
At the same time, the four Pillar Gods stood at four different points in the sky and unleashed a jet-black seal towards the palace.
The entire area and the countless tentacles were completely isolated.
No one could see what was going on inside anymore. They could only hear a series of powerful explosions and explosions.
Thousands of kilometers away from the Monarch's District.
Jang Young-ho and Boss stood at the top of a building, sensing the minute fluctuations of the battle in the air.
"You're really good at manipulating things behind the scenes," Jang Young-ho said.
"Yes, we sealed the inside. This way, no one will know that the monster is with them." Boss crossed his arms and agreed.
They jumped from the roof into a small alley.
Ye Fei Li activated the power of the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook, temporarily granting the maid's soul the ability to touch everything and speak.
There was a layer of light on the maid's body.
This was the unique light emitted by a ghost after it received the power of the Divine Armament of Huang Quan.
It was just like how Ye Fei Li gave the ghosts the power to pick up weapons and take revenge.
"That's enough."
Ye Fei Li gestured to her.
The maid sensed herself and found that she could now touch her own body, as well as speak.
She then looked at everyone and said:
"The king had me wait for you in the secret passage"
"Once I receive you, I will immediately take you away from that place and head towards the king's location"
"That was my mission. Unfortunately, after waiting for a while, I suddenly fell unconscious. Now that I think about it, I was most likely killed by someone"
Gu Qing Shan silently listened and waited for her to finish before asking: "Why did the king give you such a dangerous mission?"
"Because I have a Divine Skill called [Fearless Teleportation]"
"After I choose a location, no matter what, I can directly return to that location with a single thought"
"Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to use this Divine Skill"
The maid sighed.
She solemnly bowed to Gu Qing Shan's group and continued: "Please allow me to return to see my child. He is currently sick, so I have to see him. This way, even if I were to disappear in the end, I wouldn't have any regrets"
Ye Fei Li explained: "You can't leave the range of my hook right now, otherwise, that thing will immediately notice you — — - it's proficiency in soul techniques is very high"
The maid begged: "I beg you, please help me just this once, I'm already dead, I have no other wish, I just want to see my child one more time"
Ye Fei Li looked at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan pondered.
The four Pillar Gods pointed out that our group is evil, but the king sent this woman to come into contact with us.
For this woman to be given such a heavy responsibility, she must be a trusted aide of the king, or a hidden figure that no one knows about.
In other words, she must have come into contact with many secrets and know a lot of information.
This information regarding Calming Soul Country might not even be known by the people of Calming Soul Country.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the maid's soul.
Only to see that her expression was full of sorrow and despair. Although this was only a soul, tears were still flowing down her cheeks.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "You're worried about your child, but what about the child's father?"
"He abandoned us when I was pregnant," the woman said.
"You're raising the child by yourself?"
"Yes"
"That's not an easy task, how should I address you?"
"My name is Xuan Ya"
"Xuan Ya, nice to meet you, I'm Gu Qing Shan, these are my friends"
Gu Qing Shan introduced everyone to her.
"Now, please allow us to follow you to your home, on one hand, to help you see your child, on the other hand, we also need a place to hide ourselves"
The maid cried tears of joy and spoke with a trembling voice: "Really? I'm only a ghost right now, but I still want to express my gratitude "
She lowered her body, about to kneel down.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly helped her up.
"There's no need for that, you were killed in order to complete the mission to save us"
Gu Qing Shan smiled: "Now that you mention it, we actually owe you quite a bit"
…
A secluded corner of the city.
The girl called Xuan Ya was standing in front of a small house, hesitating.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"He's … only three years old, I don't know how to face him" Xuan Ya was still crying.
Hearing that, everyone went silent.
What a pitiful child, he didn't have a father, and now he's lost his mother.
How will he live from now on? What kind of predicament will he face?
Will he be able to survive alone?
Lola seemed to have thought of something as her eyelids slowly drooped, a single tear slowly flowed down.
Gu Qing Shan silently pondered.
— — it's only been 5 days since I last used the Heaven sword, so there's at least 5 more days before I can use [Chaotic Flow] again.
Right now, I can't revive her.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and said: "Let's go, we'll go with you"
The girl shook her head, then slowly nodded.
She raised her hand to push the door open.
But her hand went through the door.
Ye Fei Li said apologetically: "Ah, I'm sorry, this ability to materialize ghosts can only last for a few minutes"
The girl seemed to sigh in relief and retreated.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "How long do we have to wait before we can use it again?"
"One hour"
"So it's only an hour, we can wait that long"
"But after an hour, it can only last for a few minutes, after all, materializing ghosts isn't a specialized ability, it's only a small trick that comes with the hook"
"That's a bit troublesome, if she's talking to her child and the time is up, wouldn't we be done for?"
"Hm …"
Everyone was talking at once.
Hearing everyone's discussion, Xuan Ya slowly lowered her head.
All of a sudden, a low shout came from inside the house:
"Mommy …"
Xuan Ya didn't care about anything else. She opened her mouth and said something without saying anything, then rushed inside.
A single door kept everyone outside, but how could the situation inside be hidden from them?
Gu Qing Shan released her inner sight to check.
Only to see that a glass of water on the table had been knocked over, a bottle of medicine had fallen to the ground.
A three-year-old child was lying on the bed. His face was tightly scrunched up from the pain he was suffering from.
His condition wasn't very good, a bit severe.
But he was strong enough to silently endure the pain, only calling out for mommy when he was in too much pain.
Xuan Ya was circling around the child.
But she was only a ghost, so no matter what she said or did, the child couldn't hear or feel it.
She was so worried that she was crying.
"Let's go inside and help him" Ye Fei Li was about to walk inside.
Jang Young-ho stopped her and whispered:
"You're a stranger, not even a Demi, so don't scare the child"
Ye Fei Li shrugged and asked: "Then what should I do?"
Jang Young-ho replied: "Knock him out, then heal him"
"That's too rough"
Ye Fei Li complained.
While watching this, Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt a pair of small hands holding her.
When she looked down, she saw that it was Lola.
"Qing Shan" Lola looked at him and whispered: "He's already an orphan"
"Hm"
"Let's help him, alright?"
"… Hm"
An autumn-water clear blue sword manifested behind Gu Qing Shan's back and turned into Shannu.
"Gongzi, I'll go" Shannu volunteered.
Gu Qing Shan shook her head and said: "You've never been a mother before, so you won't be able to experience it, you won't be able to learn it, and there might even be trouble"
He patted Ye Fei Li's shoulder. "Call Xuan Ya back and give me a strand of her hair"
"Ah, alright"
Ye Fei Li called the ghost back, then released the corpse, plucked a strand of hair from the corpse's head and gave it to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan took the strand and asked Ye Fei Li: "Then — — can you let me form a connection with Xuan Ya?"
"It's fortunate that you're a cultivator, your spirit sense is quite strong, so you can barely do it, but it won't take long"
"How long?"
"Ten minutes"
"That's enough"
At this point, Xuan Ya was called back.
Gu Qing Shan and Xuan Ya talked for a while, asking a few questions about their daily lives.
Their conversation was over.
Ye Fei Li used the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook to connect Gu Qing Shan and Xuan Ya's minds.
"Say something" Gu Qing Shan said.
Xuan Ya said something.
Gu Qing Shan nodded, gesturing that she could hear.
Xuan Ya stared at him, then suddenly stepped forward and lightly hugged him.
"Let's begin"
Gu Qing Shan said.
Xuan Ya turned around and stood in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan activated [Mystery of All Beings Equal] and turned into Xuan Ya.
He opened the door and entered.
Everyone was still standing outside, silently observing the situation inside the room.
Noticing his mother's return, the child called out in surprise.
Xuan Ya wiped away her tears and smiled brightly.
Gu Qing Shan also smiled.
Whenever Xuan Ya said something, Gu Qing Shan would follow suit.
The ghost made an expression, Gu Qing Shan made the same expression.
The ghost made a hugging gesture, and Gu Qing Shan hugged the child.
At first, it was a bit shaky, but Gu Qing Shan quickly adjusted and kept pace with Xuan Ya, their expressions were almost exactly the same.
He was becoming more and more proficient.
The ghost reached her hand towards the table — —
Gu Qing Shan picked up the cup,
The ghost softly comforted her,
Gu Qing Shan continued what she was saying,
The ghost lowered its head.
Gu Qing Shan leaned down and kissed the child.
At this moment, he was Xuan Ya.
Outside the door, no one said anything.
Finally, Boss couldn't help but ask: "How can he act so well? In human society, he shouldn't have experienced the role of a mother "
Lola couldn't hold back her tears, constantly wiping her face with her hands.
She muttered: "Because he's an orphan"
