As for how to deal with Gui Ling, Lu Ye had a headache. If she really was an enemy, then he could just kill her. There was no need to show any mercy, but Gui Ling wasn't an enemy.
It was true that he had encountered some trouble because of her. If he hadn't lured the enemy to the Merfolk's territory, Lu Ye wouldn't have known how to deal with it.
He had to settle this with her.
He couldn't let her go …
While waiting, Lu Ye began to break the restrictions on the storage rings. As expected of the Moon Jade Realm's storage rings, the restrictions weren't complicated, but they weren't easy to break. Lu Ye spent a lot of effort and even destroyed one storage ring before he could break the rest.
As mentioned before, he gave the storage rings to Bai Lu. These were the Merfolk's spoils of war. No matter how good the treasures inside were, he had no reason to keep them.
Since he had nothing to do, he chatted with Bai Lu. Bai Lu loved to listen to him talk about the outside world. When Lu Ye was at the Constellation Hall, Bai Lu would pester him to talk about these things every time she went there. She always listened with great interest.
Unfortunately, their clan was cursed and couldn't leave the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Otherwise, they could go out and take a look.
Time passed. After more than half a day, Lu Ye, who was arguing with Bai Lu about the Constellation Hall, suddenly stopped talking and turned to look at the door. "You don't want to come in? Do you want me to invite you in?"
Bai Lu was startled. When she turned to look, she didn't see anything. Just as she was about to speak, the space at the door distorted, and a familiar figure appeared.
Who else could it be but the Ghost Clan member called Gui Ling?
Bai Lu was slightly frightened. With this level of concealment, no one in the Merfolk Clan would be able to detect her! She didn't know how Li Taibai had detected her.
If it was before, Lu Ye wouldn't have been able to detect her. However, after deriving a new concealment technique, Lu Ye's attainments in concealment were much stronger than before. Moreover, part of his new concealment technique came from Gui Ling's ghostly patterns, so they could be considered to be of the same origin. In addition, Gui Ling's current condition wasn't good, so it wasn't difficult for him to detect her.
The ghost no longer looked like she had just been injected with chicken blood. Her face was obviously very pale, and her eyes were somewhat listless. That attack just now was obviously a burst of power that she had accumulated for a long time. As long as she escaped from this place, she could find a place to recuperate. Who would have thought that she would wander around the Huang Snail Palace for half a day without being able to leave?
It was not that there was no way out. There were several passages leading to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea in the Royal Snail Palace, but Ghost retreated after a brief attempt.
Revealing herself, she clutched her chest with one hand and staggered into the cell. Then, she sat down not far from Lu Ye and gasped for breath as if she was about to die.
She coughed up blood before she could speak, and blood stained her veil.
Bai Lu looked on worriedly, afraid that she would really die just like that.
Lu Ye, however, remained indifferent, because he didn't know if it was true or not. Spectre's miserable appearance might just be a means to gain sympathy.
After a long while, Spectre calmed down and asked, "Fa Wuzun, tell me honestly, where is this place?"
There was a group of mermaids here, and other than this strange space, the surroundings were filled with seawater similar to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Spectre really couldn't figure out where this place was. She had taken out the star chart to try to locate it, but the star chart was completely useless here.
"Where is this place? You can make your own judgment. Why ask me?" Lu Ye replied indifferently.
Spectre's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip. She stared at Lu Ye for a long time before slowly shaking his head. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
She did have a guess, but how could this kind of thing be true?
"If you say it's impossible, then it's impossible!" Lu Ye had no intention of explaining for her. "But since you're here, then stay here and don't think about nonsense. Don't try to hurt any of the mermaids. Otherwise, you'll only make your situation worse."
Spectre said angrily, "Fa Wuzun, do you still have a conscience?"
"Oh?" Lu Ye looked at her casually. "You used my name to divert the trouble, causing me to be hunted down by Yue Yao, and you're talking to me about conscience? Do you have any conscience at all? "
"Believe it or not, I didn't want to divert the trouble away. I was really out of ideas at that time. You just happened to contact me, and I thought that we might be able to fight him together. Who knew that you would run away by yourself? If he wanted to chase you, I couldn't stop him. Besides, if I really wanted to divert the trouble away, I could've totally ignored you. But in fact, I've been chasing you all the time because I was afraid that something would happen to you. At that time, I could've helped you. Otherwise, do you think I would've come to this godforsaken place? I was worried about you! "
"Do you believe that yourself?" Lu Ye looked at her coldly.
Ghost touched her chest and said, "I can swear on my conscience!"
Lu Ye stared at her for a while. He didn't see any falsehood in her eyes. He really couldn't tell whether she was telling the truth or not.
Normally, after Lu Ye had diverted Yue Yao away, Spectre could've escaped without a trace. There was no need for her to chase him all the way here. But she still came. It seemed like what she said was true?
Lu Ye didn't want to dwell on this any longer. He said, "Anyway, since you're here, don't leave. This will be your home from now on. You can stay here with peace of mind."
Spectre was on the verge of tears. She shifted her body and grabbed Lu Ye's arm with both hands. She shook it gently. "Senior Brother Fa, you can't do this to me. I know you can leave this place. It's that kind of door. Open the door and take me out. I'll remember your kindness for the rest of my life!"
Bai Lu looked at her coquettishly from the side. Her eyes were about to spit fire!
Spectre was still shaking Lu Ye's arm. She vowed solemnly, "Also, don't worry. I, Spectre, won't tell anyone about this place, including the door. I'm a woman who keeps her mouth shut!"
Lu Ye didn't respond. He just looked at her with a half-smile.
Spectre scowled miserably. "Then what do you want me to do? You can't really lock me up here for the rest of my life. We don't have any deep grudges. Draw me a Dao, and I'll agree to anything!"
"I don't have a Dao to draw!" Lu Ye pulled his arm out, stood up, and looked down at her condescendingly: "You're not in a good state, you should recover first." Saying this, he threw a few bottles of healing pills to her, then led Bai Lu out.
Spectre wanted to chase after him, but she had no strength left. She lay on the ground and looked at Lu Ye's back. She opened her arms and shouted, "Fa Wuzun, you can't do this to me!"
There was no response.
After they left the prison, Bai Lu said angrily, "I'm going to ask the Grand Elder to place more restrictions on her. Let's see how she dispels them this time!"
Lu Ye stopped her. "There's no need. Let her recover first." Spectre looked very pitiful. Lu Ye could see that she was indeed at the end of her rope. If she didn't recover soon, it would leave behind some hidden dangers.
"Then where should we keep her?" Bai Lu asked.
"No need. Let her be. Anyway, she can't leave the Huang Luo Palace."
"She's not weak. If she makes a move on my people …"
"She's a smart person. Smart people will do smart things. Don't worry, she won't do that. But there's only one thing to be careful of. Don't let her get close to Bai Shuang! "
Bai Shuang was the Queen of the Mermaid Clan. Her strength wasn't high. If Spectre really captured Bai Shuang, then the Mermaid Clan would be in a passive position. As long as Spectre was prevented from coming into contact with Bai Shuang, everything would be fine.
After that, Lu Ye was led by Bai Lu to see the Grand Elder Yan Miao. He apologized to the Mermaid Clan for the last time and thanked them.
The Grand Elder's words were the same as Bai Lu's. Lu Ye had helped the Mermaid Clan a lot. If the Mermaid Clan had a chance to repay them, they would be very happy. How could they complain?
At the same time, the Grand Elder also said that if Lu Ye encountered a similar situation in the future, just lead the enemy over and let them deal with it. After this experience, they would definitely deal with similar situations better next time.
Naturally, Lu Ye agreed.
After chatting for a while, Lu Ye bid farewell and left.
He didn't stay with the Mermaid Clan for too long. Lu Ye borrowed a seahorse star beast and rushed toward the Constellation Hall alone.
Bai Lu wanted to accompany him, but Lu Ye rejected her.
Although the journey wasn't long, he might encounter some dangers. There were still many Moon Jade star beasts in the sea. He naturally didn't want Bai Lu to take such a risk.
Fortunately, the journey was relatively peaceful. After waiting for half a day, he arrived at the Constellation Hall. Lu Ye let the seahorse return on its own. He went forward and pushed the door of the Constellation Hall.
He didn't encounter much resistance and the door slowly opened.
After Lu Ye walked in, the door closed automatically.
After his last attempt, Lu Ye knew that unless it was during the period of the Constellation Hall Battle, no one but himself could open the door of the Constellation Hall.
Therefore, this huge Constellation Hall was a special place for him to store his treasures.
He had a lot of storage rings on him. They were filled with all kinds of things. It wasn't convenient to carry them around all the time, so he just left them here. After all, as long as he had the Minor Constellation Hall, he could come here whenever he wanted.
Lu Ye left most of the storage rings behind. He only brought three storage rings with him. One was for Spirit Jades and Spirit Crystals, one was for Spirit Pills and Spirit Treasures, and one was for miscellaneous items.
In addition to the storage space on the back of his hand, it was definitely enough for him to use.
In front of the black stone tablet that represented the accumulation list, a door was maintained. Lu Ye returned to the bottom of Matchless Island through this door. He swam a distance away before quietly returning to Matchless Island.
After silently returning to the cave, Lu Ye began to deduce the other spirit runes while continuing to comprehend the small saber inheritance. After exchanging blows with Yue Yao, Lu Ye realized that the inheritance bestowed by the Constellation Hall was very practical. It was especially suitable for the battle between the Constellation Hall and Yue Yao.
He didn't plan to raise his cultivation at the moment. Naturally, he had to spend more effort in this aspect so that he wouldn't be restricted when facing Moon Jade in the future.
