HCB Chapter 234 The Origin of Time
Chapter 234 The Origin of Time
Just as the group was traveling at high speed on the fire phoenix, a silver light descended from the void towards the king.
The silver light completely enveloped the king's face. Ling Yunxiao immediately took out the Judge's Pen, trying to block out the silver light, but Wang Ye had already pressed down on his shoulder.
"It's unbelievable that Cronus would leave his own time essence to the King. I thought he would let these essences be corrupted."
"It's better to be careful."
Ling Yunxiao looked at Wang Mian, who was absorbing the power of origin, and used both healing and dispelling techniques on him.
"Yunxiao, Kronos means no harm."
Wang Mian spoke softly. Although he was completely focused on absorbing the power of the origin of time, he still managed to interrupt Ling Yunxiao's concern and speak up to explain something to him.
Ling Yunxiao's gaze darkened. If Kronos had no ill intentions, then his last words... were they really just a venting of emotions?
Ling Yunxiao gazed silently at the shooting star in the void above, falling into a long silence.
It wasn't until Wang Mian had absorbed all the power of the Time Origin and the Fire Phoenix landed in Anta County that he came back to his senses.
After concealing the thoughts in his eyes, Ling Yunxiao followed the group and jumped off the Fire Phoenix.
"who are you?"
Li Deyang and Chen Han were both somewhat taken aback. Anta County had been peaceful for a long time, and there were only the two of them in the forestry bureau of the night watchman.
When Nezha's golden phoenix landed, causing such a commotion outside the door, the two of them came out and saw this group of people dressed in a disheveled manner.
Nezha didn't have a Night Watchman uniform, Lin Qiye wore the camouflage uniform of the recruit training camp, and habitually carried a heavy sword case on his back. Ling Yunxiao wore the uniform of the [Wu Wang] squad, Wang Mian wore the magic robe given to him by Zhulong, and Wang Ye habitually wore the ghost messenger uniform when he went all out.
"Hello, we are Night Watch 005 [Godslayer] Squad, and I am the captain, Wang Mian. We are heading to the primeval forest behind the Forestry Bureau. We are here hoping you can cooperate with us and guide us."
"It's just showing the way, I'll go!"
Chen Han grinned. Although he had never heard of this team, he was not on guard at all.
"Excuse me, gentlemen, I am Li Deyang, the captain of the 332nd Squad stationed in Anta County. May I see your Night Watch badges?"
Li Deyang restrained Chen Han, whose eyes were brimming with excitement, and looked at the group with suspicion. And Wang Mian? Isn't that the captain of the [Masked] team?
"That's good. It's right that you're always on guard."
As Ling Yunxiao spoke, he reached into his pocket, randomly took out a badge, opened it, and it sparkled with starlight.
"Sorry, I took the wrong one. This is the [Star] Medal."
"Huh? Wrong again, this is the [Starry Sea] Medal."
"This time it should be correct, no, this is still the [Starry Sea] Medal..."
After Ling Yunxiao pulled out several medals in succession, Wang Mian smiled helplessly and handed his Night Watch badge to Li Deyang.
At this moment, young Chen Han looked at Ling Yunxiao with eyes full of admiration. Li Deyang was a little stronger, but he also looked at the others with reverence.
After verifying that the badge on the king's face was genuine, Li Deyang smiled and looked at the forest behind him.
"I'm sorry, I was just overthinking it."
"This primeval forest behind us is very dangerous, and the paths are extremely complicated. Chen Han has never been deep into it before, so I'll take you there!"
"Alright."
Except for Wang Ye, Ling Yunxiao and the others all knew Li Deyang's identity, and naturally they also knew that if Li Deyang hadn't led the way, they might not have been able to get in smoothly.
"I've never been inside before, Lao Li. Let me lead the way! Or should I go with you?"
Chen Han rolled his eyes twice, and after calming down, he immediately realized that such a powerful special team couldn't possibly be going on a vacation in the primeval forest.
So he immediately spoke up, saying that even if he couldn't go in Lao Li's place, he had to go in with him.
"Nonsense, don't forget you're the night watchman. What if something mysterious happens in the town if we both leave?"
Li Deyang had clearly suspected danger deep in the forest ever since he believed the identities of the others, so he looked at Chen Han with a serious expression and his eyes were full of warning.
"Old Li..."
"Don't be so nervous. There's no danger inside. Besides, our team has Ling Yunxiao. He can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded. Even the greatest danger is nothing to us."
Don't worry! I just need you to show me the way. Don't waste time making it look like a life-or-death situation.
Wang Ye raised an eyebrow and spoke, while Ling Yunxiao and Lin Qiye exchanged a glance. For these two, it might be a matter of life and death.
"Alright! Old Li, hurry back!"
Chen Han knew he was unfamiliar with the forest, so he had no choice but to give in.
Li Deyang patted Chen Han on the shoulder and led the group deeper into the forest.
Li Deyang had just stepped into the forest and was walking along peacefully when he suddenly heard Ling Yunxiao speak.
"Young Prince, don't spout nonsense about things you don't know next time. You just sold me out. What if Chen Han asks me for me when we get out?"
Upon hearing this, Li Deyang's face immediately darkened. That person had just claimed he could revive the dead and heal the wounded. Was he really going to be reduced to ashes and his soul scattered if he went in? Couldn't even that be saved?
"Ahem... Brother Li, Yunxiao didn't mean that, please don't misunderstand..."
Seeing Li Deyang's struggling expression, Wang Mian helplessly tried to persuade him.
“Your identities are correct, I believe in you. For the sake of Great Xia, as a member of the Night Watch, I can accept whatever happens.”
Li Deyang took a deep breath and continued walking forward. Wang Ye, on the other hand, was completely bewildered. This uncle looked ordinary; why did he have to die?
"It's alright, they can't protect you, but I will! If I say you can get back alive, you definitely will."
Wang Ye patted his chest confidently; he refused to believe that anything could bypass him and force this person to stay.
The group continued walking forward, and as the moonlight descended, several enormous insects appeared not far in front of them.
"It seems we're on the right track; this is the area."
Lin Qiye was the one who was actually leading the way. Even with Li Deyang's current strength, he had never actually traveled the path that led to this.
Lin Qiye's voice was not low, which immediately attracted the attention of the insects. Just as he was about to warn everyone to be careful, Wang Ye had already transformed into a streak of light and rushed out.
Before Li Deyang could react, Wang Ye had already unleashed several sword beams, and the giant insects, before they could even bare their teeth, were all cut in half at the waist.
"That's it? Where does Old Wu even live?"
"Young Prince, please stop your supernatural powers! You've killed all the guides and now you're questioning us?"
Ling Yunxiao sighed, and after saying this, he didn't dare to look at Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye's changing expressions were more dramatic than a Sichuan opera performance. He didn't really know the way back; he had just been chasing after them. Now, his beloved Jialan was almost there...
