A quick journey through the stars

As soon as she returned to Zheng Palace, Lingxi felt a tug and knew it was time for her to go back.

I looked at Gong Yuanzheng reluctantly: "Gong Yuanzheng, I want to go home"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lingxi turned into starlight and disappeared, leaving Gong Yuanzheng with red eyes standing there.

The day after Lingxi left, Gong Shangjiao came back from outside and did not see Gong Yuanzheng coming to pick him up as usual. He was a little worried and planned to go to the Zhiren Hall to report first and then go to see his brother.

After reporting his work at the Zhiren Hall, Gong Hongyu assigned him a new task based on Gong Huanyu's suggestion. Gong Shangjiao suppressed his worry about Gong Yuanzheng, thinking that the Zheng family was not close to the Jiuchen Valley but not far either. He would go to see his brother Yuanzheng as soon as he finished the task.

That night, Gong Huanyu used the muscle softening powder given by Lingxi to easily give Gong Hongyu a pass to the underworld, allowing him to inherit the sword.

Two days later, Gong Shangjiao came back, rested for a while and then went to see Gong Yuanzheng.

Zheng Palace

Gong Shangjiao looked at Gong Yuanzheng, whose eyes were red, haggard and dull, and felt distressed: "Yuanzheng, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you? Tell me and I will avenge you."

Gong Yuanzheng's voice became hoarse when he heard this: "Brother, Lingxi is gone."

Gong Shangjiao was stunned for a moment, then touched Gong Yuanzheng's head and comforted him: "Yuanzheng, since Lingxi can come to our place once, she will definitely come again."

Gong Yuanzheng's eyes lit up when he heard that. Gong Shangjiao continued to comfort him for a long time before he came back to life.

Elsewhere in the Zhiren Hall, three elders urged Gong Huanyu to choose a bride, but Gong Huanyu flatly refused. Then the three elders urged Gong Huanyu to choose other adult princes as brides, and Gong Huanyu agreed. The next day, Gong Ziyu chose Yun Weishan, and Gong Shangjiao chose Shangguan Qian.

After that, time seemed to have been installed on a shortcut key. A few days later, Gong Huanyu used the identity of Wu Ji's wife Wuming to determine that Shangguan Qian and Yun Weishan were the Wufeng assassins. He set up a trap to make Wu Ji, Yun Weishan, and Shangguan Qian reveal that they were the Wufeng assassin Wuming.

Afterwards, he tortured the three men to extract the location of Wufeng's headquarters, and began his plan to destroy Wufeng. Of course, he also didn't forget to send Wuji, Shangguan Qian, and the other two to accompany Gong Hongyu. In March, Gong Huanyu was fully prepared and set a trap for Wufeng.

Gong Huanyu gave the antidote to the muscle softening powder to everyone in the palace gate in advance. After the Wufeng leader Dianzhu brought two-thirds of the ghosts and monsters, four monsters and two ghosts into the palace gate, Gong Huanyu casually scattered the two bottles of muscle softening powder given by Lingxi over to them.

But after a few breaths, Wufeng and his men were lying on the ground, exhausted and their martial arts skills were completely disabled. Everyone in the palace except Xue Chongzi was shocked.

After everyone came back to their senses, Gong Zishang's eyes lit up: "Zhi Ren, what did you just sprinkle? Why are we okay?"

Gong Huanyu replied in a good mood: "Softening Muscle Powder, I'll give you the antidote in advance." Then he led everyone in the palace gate to slaughter the helpless Wufeng assassins.

After slaughtering all of Wufeng's men, he took out the jade token given by Lingxi and crushed it casually. A wisp of Lingxi's divine consciousness appeared in the air. Gong Huanyu took out the map of Wufeng's location that he had drawn before and said, "This is Wufeng's headquarters. I'll trouble you to take care of the rest of Wufeng's men."

Gong Yuanzheng's eyes instantly turned red when he saw Lingxi, and he choked with joy: "Lingxi, you're back!"

Lingxi's divine consciousness was just divine consciousness, without any emotion from Lingxi. He explained coldly, "I am not the original master. I am just a trace of divine consciousness left by the original master. I will dissipate after completing the task assigned by the original master."

Gong Yuanzheng felt disappointed when he heard this, but his eyes were fixed on Lingxi's divine consciousness, with anticipation: "Will Lingxi come back?"

Lingxi's mind looked at the dragon-patterned jade pendant and the inseparable talisman worn by Gong Yuanzheng and said coldly: "I don't know, but I think I care about you very much."

Gong Yuanzheng exuded a joyful aura upon hearing this, his eyes sparkling with a hint of disbelief: "Really? Really?"

Lingxi's mind spoke coldly, "The bracelet you're wearing is called the Bulifu Talisman. Once the person who drew the talisman leaves, it will immediately dissipate."

Gong Shangjiao, who was standing next to Gong Yuanzheng, was puzzled: "Then why is the bracelet still on Yuanzheng's hand?"

Lingxi's mind continued: "Take a closer look at the bracelet to see if there are any changes."

Gong Yuanzheng glanced at the bracelet after hearing this and found that a delicate red pattern had appeared on the originally blue hollow bracelet. He wondered: "Could it be because of this red pattern..."

Lingxi nodded in her mind: "This red pattern is formed by my blood essence. The Bulifu Talisman contains my blood essence, so it will not dissipate in your hand even after I left.

The jade pendant you wear around your waist is made of thousand-year-old blue crystal, which I treasure very much. Both the jade pendant and the inseparable talisman containing my essence and blood show that I care deeply about you.

After he finished speaking, Lingxi nodded and glanced at the map in Gong Huanyu's hand. He teleported to Wufeng's headquarters and killed the remaining one-third of the Chi-level and Mei-level assassins with one sword. After razing Wufeng's headquarters, he teleported back to the palace gate to inform the remaining Wufeng that they had been killed and then disappeared.

The entire process from the palace gate to Wufeng eliminating Wufeng's remnants and then returning to the palace gate to inform them to take over and then dissipate took only a few minutes.

Xue Chongzi looked at Gong Yuanzheng who was staring at the jade pendant and the Bulifu talisman in a daze: "Miss Lingxi cares about you very much. Before she left, she made a deal with me. She will eliminate the aliens and I will protect you."

Gong Huanyu replied, "Yes, she also found me and made a deal with me. She gave me the Softening Powder, the antidote to the Softening Powder, and a ray of divine consciousness to help me eliminate Wufeng. The condition was that I would protect you."
