Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

The eerie and tense atmosphere was easily resolved with Li Yunyan's intervention.

This greatly disappointed the people who were there for the spectacle, especially those who had placed bets on a bloodbath. They even thought one of the girls might win. They even argued about it.

One claimed the puppet's fighting power was unparalleled, even comparable to the ninth generation champion. He declared victory inevitable once the fight began. Of everyone present, besides the champion, who could stop the strongest captain's puppet?

The other person said it was nonsense; bloodshed wouldn't escalate to that point. Besides, Cheese is extremely skilled; in a verbal battle, a simple doll wouldn't stand a chance. She has a very high chance of winning.

A very small minority believe that the Little Mad King might become a dark horse.

Of course, this group was just there for fun, and because of the curse, they didn't believe the Little Mad King could win.

Overall, it was a war of words between the doll party and the cheese party. And as the banquet began, even some people who hadn't arrived participated in betting.

It is said that within the City Lord's Mansion, an unnamed member of the Supreme Council had someone suppress the Little Mad King.

Everyone's waiting for some fun.

As a result, the bloodshed never occurred.

It left everyone at the scene speechless; they were really getting ripped off.

Hong Lan, the head of the Hong family who made the only bet, may become the only winner.

As expected of the head of the family, his vision is truly astute. Many people are wondering if he's opened a business based on this level of investment acumen.

This made Hong Lan, who was watching the scene unfold at the dinner table, smile to herself.

Then, he opened someone's communication page on the communicator.

The last record above reads, "No problem, I'll take care of it!"

It’s really reliable.

Hong Lan thought for a moment, then silently typed and sent the message.

'I'll share half the bonus with you!'

The three girls who accepted the red envelopes had different expressions.

The doll was a little shy, the little mad king was a little confused, but Cheese clearly understood everything.

She calmly accepted the red envelope. Her gaze, however, was fixed on Jing Lin, who was gritting his teeth in the distance. She whispered to Li Yunyan beside her, "Your brother, with a wingman like you by his side, how come he's been single for so many years?"

Li Yunyan was indeed a wingman.

Her psychic abilities have not yet been fully revealed, but in terms of emotional intelligence alone, she alone can outperform nine generations of champions!

Initially, it was just a simple contact. She clearly sensed that Cheese was interested in her brother. It's evident that her emotional intelligence far surpasses Li Yelai's.

As a wingman, she will be Li Yelai's strongest support.

Even with such a wingman, Li Yelai has not been captured after so many years.

“You and I both know how smart my brother is. Besides, if it weren’t for the God and Demon Monument suppressing my curse, no matter how good my wingman skills are, I wouldn’t be able to help him,” Li Yunyan replied in a low voice.

“That’s true, otherwise we wouldn’t have anything to do.” Cheese chuckled.

Jing Ji felt somewhat like he had been used. After congratulating Li Ye with a smile, he left the banquet hall.

He was in a good mood after Li Yunyan called him "Grandpa," but he was still planning to go back and cause trouble for Jing Lin.

Jing Lin naturally wouldn't see the blood flowing like a river, but he estimated that some of it would flow.

Afterwards, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually returned to normal. Jing Lin was probably dead; he had disappeared.

During their casual conversation, Li Yelai learned that Ma Hongyi and the others would be traveling to Wanlong Lake with the puppet, Little Mad King, and other captains from Border City No. 3. "Old Li," Ma Hongyi said, "although you liberated Wanlong Lake, if you have time, go there again. Many powerful figures are heading there now. It's a chance to witness the might of humanity." "It's always good to see more."

Li Yelai nodded: "Of course, but it will take some time."

Li Yelai now knew that Wanlong Lake was a constellation of stars, with captains and overlords from different mega-cities arriving one after another. It was indeed a great place to witness the strength of powerful figures from different mega-cities.

"But you, Old Ma, would be better off challenging yourself to the later stages; the rewards there are excellent!" Li Yelai said.

"Don't call me Old Ma!" Ma Hongyi gritted her teeth.

Mohe then asked, "So, your combat power increased significantly after receiving the reward?"

"Yeah, it'll probably double. It just won't last long," Li Yelai said.

This shocked everyone present. The champion's strength had doubled?
How terrifying must that be? In a battle between equals, is there really anyone who could force Li Ye to reveal such a trump card?
"This reward is truly terrifying," Mohe exclaimed, then added, "By the way, when you have time, go to Border City Number One. Master Craftsman Mohai plans to forge a psionic weapon for you."

“Okay, I will.” Li Yelai nodded. He was indeed looking forward to the craftsmanship of Master Mo Hai.

At the same time, Li Yelai also learned from Jing Nuo about the inheritor of the Jing family's divine bloodline.

She was a girl from the Immortal Palace, a native of the Immortal Palace. She was a follower of the Azure Flame, a fellow countryman of Jing Tianming.

Compared to the wariness that the giant cities outside were towards the divine child, the original inhabitants of the Celestial Palace had high expectations for him.

After all, Jing Tianming himself was a powerful ancestral being. In the time and space where he was trapped in the Immortal Palace, every ancestral being who appeared had fought strangely for humanity.

This made the indigenous people not resistant to the blood of the gods.

After learning that she could give birth to a divine child, the girl resolutely agreed to the Jing family's plan.

Having successfully conceived a child with divine blood, she instantly became the most honored person in the Jing family.

This is also a fig leaf for the rest of the Jing family.
From the Jing family's perspective, Li Yelai's mother, Jing Lian, should have given birth to a divine child.

However, she eloped with the wandering knight Li Qiong and had a son and a daughter. She has not yet inherited the family's legacy.

Therefore, they regard it as useless.

The fact that two useless bodies occupied the womb where the divine child was born is the reason why the Jing family disliked Li Yelai and his sister.

But Li Yelai, who was considered a useless body, became a powerful and glorious champion, which was a slap in the face to them.

In an instant, countless senior members of the Jing family had their Dao hearts shattered.

Were they really wrong? Was the divine child truly inferior to a bastard's useless body?

But the reappearance of the divine child restored their faith.

They returned the Divine Blood Mother to the distant Radiant Azure City, where she was carefully cared for and protected, eagerly anticipating the rapid rise of the Divine Child.

The children of the gods grow at an extremely rapid pace; within a few years, they will catch up with the so-called champions. They will eventually regain their former glory.

Li Yelai had nothing to say about this.

It was consensual on both sides, so as an outsider, he really didn't have much to say.

We can only hope that the divine child is truly on the side of humanity.

As the banquet came to an end, the guests and hosts had a good time, well, actually not that good.
Many people were forcing smiles, and Jing Lin, the host, was seen off with a limp for some reason.

Anyway, Li Yelai and the others had a good time eating.

(Happy New Year, everyone! I'm not good at saying New Year's greetings, so I'll just wish you all a prosperous Year of the Snake here!)
(And another piece of good news: Lao Lang is going to be a father. Hehehe) (End of Chapter)
