Chapter 270: Turning Misfortune Into Fortune

??

The wind above Sea City howled non-stop.

All the dark clouds seemed to have gathered at the same point and gathered above Li Yuanqing’s head. They were still pressing down, as if they wanted to use their huge weight to crush Li Yuanqing into a meat pie.

Ye Qiluo watched from the side in shock. Li Yuanqing seemed to have fallen into his own realm. No matter how she called him, it was useless. She did not know what to do. In any case, the situation was getting worse and worse. What should she do?

Ye Qiluo looked up at the dark clouds above her. These were not the biggest problems. The biggest problem was the devil crystal that had already become the size of a human head under their feet.

Such a huge amount of energy had actually gathered into such a small ball that floated in midair. It had been motionless for a long time, as if it could only change to this size. Even so, the energy contained in it had already caused the entire space to tremble. Ye Qiluo did not dare to imagine what it would be like if it continued to shrink.

Ye Qiluo took out a golden talisman. This talisman was covered in dust, as if it was quite old. She gritted her teeth and seemed to have made a very difficult decision. She slowly poured her spiritual energy into the talisman.

After the golden talisman received the weak spiritual energy, a golden light suddenly shone brightly. The dust covering it seemed to have dispersed, revealing its golden interior. There were some blood-red words carved under the golden base. These complicated and profound patterns shone at the same time, as if they were responding to some huge and magical power in the world.

Ye Qiluo watched as the talisman slowly flew in front of her. She could feel that the little fellow seemed to be breathing and emitting some strange movement as if it was alive. Every time the golden talisman vibrated, it would attract the air beside it and slowly vibrate with it. After a short breath, the golden talisman seemed to be filled with energy from the space beside it. It gradually expanded and turned into a golden shield that guarded the two of them.

This shield was not big, but it happened to cover the two of them. Ye Qiluo looked at Li Yuanqing worriedly.

Ever since Li Yuanqing fell into this state, he had not spoken for a long time. He sat there motionless like a mute, his eyes fixed on the black devil crystal below. This obsessive state was a little scary, but Ye Qiluo was a little obsessed with Li Yuanqing’s persistent and determined expression.

Ye Qiluo looked at Li Yuanqing in a daze and did not speak for a long time. The two of them stayed together quietly.

...

After a moment, Ye Qiluo suddenly woke up. She lay beside Li Yuanqing and told him seriously, “Young Master Li, I don’t know if you can hear me now, but what you’re doing now is too dangerous. My shield can only protect us for a while. If this continues, I’m not sure if it can save the two of us. If you can hear me, wake up quickly.”

After Ye Qiluo finished speaking, she stayed quietly at the side. Although she did not want to disturb Li Yuanqing, it was not a good idea for him to be in this state.

Just as Ye Qiluo finished speaking, she suddenly saw Li Yuanqing’s brows furrow tightly, as if he had encountered some trouble.

“Young Master Li.”

Li Yuanqing stared fixedly at the devil crystal below. The energy contained in this devil crystal was too huge. If he could successfully seal it, it would be an excellent treasure. At that time, he would use this thing to refine an artifact. Its power would definitely be very impressive.

However, he had encountered a little trouble now. The energy in this thing was too mixed. Back then, he had seen such a method that was attached to this array formation.

Li Yuanqing felt that this method was quite interesting, so he memorized it. He had been thinking about using all these devil crystals just now. However, he did not expect that after using it, he felt that something was wrong. It was very different from what he had imagined.

Firstly, it was very troublesome to gather all these mixed energies together. There was no need to say how difficult it was.

However, when Li Yuanqing was looking at those records, he only took a casual glance at them. He thought that it was just a passing remark and did not care much.

When he really needed to refine it, he realized that these difficulties had caused so much trouble. It was really a headache.

If he could not fuse these energies together well, he could only watch as this thing dissipated. If he could control it steadily and disperse it, it would be fine. The most terrifying thing was that if anything went wrong, the energy would explode. At that time, the entire Sea City would be blown to pieces.

Li Yuanqing was not worried about his own safety. After all, he was the one presiding over this array formation. If the situation really went wrong, he could still escape with Ye Qiluo. However, Sea City had worked hard for hundreds of years. It would not be appropriate to destroy it in his hands.

Just as Li Yuanqing was conflicted, he suddenly felt a small red tentacle extend from between his brows.

Li Yuanqing was still sitting motionless outside, but the ideological Li Yuanqing watched as a red vine crawled out from between his eyebrows and slowly extended forward. He looked at the red vine strangely. He did not know what the red vine was going to do or why the blood vine had suddenly woken up.

While Li Yuanqing was searching, he felt a very unusual power flowing in the Blood Vine’s body. This power was very gentle and was very different from the humans, demons, and this devilish aura. However, he could vaguely sense various similarities.

The blood vine passed through the array formation and extended above the black crystal ball, slowly wrapping around it.

The black crystal ball was filled with extremely complicated power. Originally, these powers were not going to give in to each other and were about to explode. However, after being wrapped by the red vines, the energy inside seemed to become obedient.

Li Yuanqing carefully observed the fusion technique that he could not figure out no matter what. After the Blood Vine entered the arena, he easily dealt with these little things.

Under the guidance of the blood vine’s power, the incomparably huge devilish aura perfectly fused together and slowly circulated according to a certain pattern. The barrier inside slowly shrank, and finally, it gradually compressed. In just a short while, it became the size of a fist.

.

Outside, Ye Qiluo only looked at the crystal ball the size of a person’s head. It was surrounded by a layer of red energy. The layer of red energy looked very strange and hazy like smoke. In just a few flashes, the black devil crystal enveloped by the pink smoke actually became a small one.

When the devil crystal finally became the size of a child’s fist, the pink smoke was blown away by the wind. The turbulent situation in Sea City also dissipated, and the sky was bright.

Ye Qiluo did not even have the time to look up. When she looked again, she realized that the dark clouds and violent winds in the sky had already disappeared.

Everything just now was like a dream. It came and went in a hurry.

Li Yuanqing stood up happily from midair and stretched out his hand to absorb the pure essence. The devil crystal flew into Li Yuanqing’s hand very docilely and slowly floated above his hand.

Li Yuanqing looked at the crystal in his hand in fascination.

The energy of this thing was too huge. He was already at the sixth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm, but the power in his body was far from one percent of the devil crystal. What level would the Dharma artifact refined from this be?

At the thought of this, Li Yuanqing was eager to try.

“Young Master Li, are you alright?”

Seeing that Li Yuanqing had finally woken up, Ye Qiluo happily welcomed him and looked at him with concern.

Although Li Yuanqing was focused on the refinement of the devil crystal just now, he could still feel Ye Qiluo’s meticulous care and the gratitude of guarding him.

“Thank you, City Lord Ye.”

Ye Qiluo was stunned for a moment. Her face turned red as she lowered her head and said, “Young Master Li, don’t say that. You’re making me feel extremely ashamed. I couldn’t do anything when you were in danger just now. I could only watch from the side. Fortunately, you’re a lucky person. Nothing happened. Otherwise, I would feel extremely guilty.”

“These devils have already been expelled. It’s a pity that Sea City was ruined by these devils.”

The two of them looked down at Sea City under their feet. The originally prosperous Sea City was now in ruins. The humans and demons inside were either dead or on the run. Without the management of the human race, this city seemed to have lost its life. In just half a month, it had become so dilapidated. It was really lamentable.

Ye Qiluo comforted him. “As cultivators, life and death are determined by fate. They are destined to suffer this calamity, so there’s no need to feel regretful. However, since there’s no one in Sea City now, Young Master Li will naturally take over. You will definitely be able to operate Sea City very well.”

Li Yuanqing turned to look at Ye Qiluo. “I remember that I once discussed with City Lord Ye that after Sea City is taken down, it will be handed over to you to manage. City Lord Ye, have you forgotten?”

“Young Master Li, you’re joking. Even if we only collect a small amount of taxes, we can obtain countless spirit stones every year. Even if you’re a rich person, this is still a very considerable sum. As long as you manage it well, this place will return to a prosperous scene in a few years.”

Li Yuanqing took out a circular array disc and placed it in Ye Qiluo’s hand.

“Young Master Li, what do you mean?”

“This is the central array formation of Sea City. As long as you have this array formation, it will naturally be more convenient to manage. Moreover, it has an unexpected effect in resisting external enemies. I hope City Lord Ye can manage this place well. I’m still waiting to see your results.”

“But Young Master Li…” Ye Qiluo gritted her teeth and lowered her head. “I’m still the City Lord of Rong City. I can’t be the City Lord of Sea City anymore. I still have to go back and be with my clansmen.”

Li Yuanqing acted as if he did not hear her. He flew away and landed in the City Lord Manor of Sea City.

.

After being ravaged by the devils, it could be said that not a single thing in the City Lord Manor was intact. Wherever the devils went, they would corrode and damage the equipment of the Demon Realm. It seemed like these things had to be changed again.

“The equipment here has been severely damaged. If we replace it again, it will be quite troublesome. We will probably still need a lot of spirit stones and resources. However, these are easy to deal with. I will get Little Jiu to try her best to cooperate. I believe that you will be able to complete the reconstruction in less than a month.”

Li Yuanqing walked and checked as Ye Qiluo followed behind him.

Ye Qiluo was very conflicted. She had finally mustered her courage and said that she had to go back, but Li Yuanqing did not hear her and did not take her words to heart at all. But how could she say it again?

Ye Qiluo hesitated for a while before finally summoning her courage. She quickly walked up to Li Yuanqing.

“Young Master Li, I appreciate your kindness. I know you’re very good to me, but all my compatriots are in Rong City. I have to go back. I can’t let them down.”

Li Yuanqing nodded slightly and said to Ye Qiluo, “But aren’t you locked outside? It seems like Rong City doesn’t need you.”

Ye Qiluo blushed and turned her head away. She said stubbornly, “That’s for everyone’s safety. Moreover, I was the one who gave the order. They’re just obeying my orders.”

“City Lord Ye, you said that you wanted to restore the human race in the Catacombs, and now that you’re in Sea City, there are a thousand things to do. Yet, you’re unwilling to take action. What’s the point of restoring the human race? Could it be that you only want to restore those old humans?”

Ye Qiluo hurriedly rejected, “That’s not the case. It’s just that Rong City isn’t ready yet. If we rashly expand, I’m afraid…”

“It’s nothing. I’m afraid you have to be the City Lord of Sea City from today onwards. I hope that Sea City will become the most prosperous place among the three cities in the future. That’s why I placed this responsibility on City Lord Ye. It would be a pity if you can’t agree.”
