Chapter 807: Ancient God’s Soul

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I am a god, so even if you are the holy daughter of Pipa Clan and can use this jade pipa to increase your strength to god realm for a short time, how could this borrowed strength compare to mine? If I wanted to harm you, you would have already died without a body. How could you live for so long?”

Once Li Yunmu began to speak, he became even more happy at the sight of Liu Bailing’s flushed little face.

The girl did not reply, but her eyes were vigilant. She looked like a little beast who had encountered a crisis.

“I still don’t believe you!”

“After my subordinate Chen Xiu came, did he hurt any of your clansmen?” Li Yunmu asked.

“No.”

“Then what about the children emitting the multicoloured light? Were they kidnapped by me?”

“No.”

“Then did I attack you all after I appeared?”

“No…”

The three questions left Liu Bailing startled. She recalled that after Chen Xiu appeared, he had never attacked any Pipa clansmen, even though he had killed someone from Morrow Clan. Although the clans of Asura City were fond of battle, they did not kill someone on the same side without a good reason.

That being said, why did the blonde god want to assist Pipa Clan?

Liu Bailing looked at Li Yunmu’s handsome face and said with a strong guilt in her that she could place. “If you want to help Ancient God Lakshmi, why didn’t you attack when the children were captured?”

Upon hearing her words, Li Yunmu began to laugh. “Those children emitting the five-colored light are only a pretense, and Asura will also know that after checking them. At that time, he won’t make things difficult for the children but if I had attacked and the four young masters were killed, Asura might be provoked into personally coming here.”

“Prove it to me!” Liu Bailing said while tightly clutching the jade pipa in her hands.

When Chen Xiu, who knelt on the ground not far away, heard the conversation between Li Yunmu and Liu Bailing, he also became puzzled in his heart.

What exactly was going on?

Why did the Master’s and Pipa Clan’s holy daughter’s words sound so ambiguous, as if it was a quarrel between two young lovers who were reconciling with each other? Master’s woman was together with him, yet he dared to act like that!

He really was fierce.

Li Yunmu raised his two fingers and divine might appeared on their fingertips, which rushed toward the jade pipa in Liu Bailing’s hand. Upon seeing the overwhelming divine power, Liu Bailing forgot to remain on alert for a moment.

The instant the divine might collided with the jade pipa, dazzling five-colored light blossomed from the spotlessly white jade pipa. Strands of divine energy drifted out from within it and coiled around each other, forming a metasphere.

When Liu Bailing looked at it, she felt the presence of Ancient God Lakshmi. Her complexion instantly changed, and she hurriedly said, “Ancient God Lakshmi! You… quickly return our ancient god!”

Li Yunmu retrieved his divine might, and the five-colored light also retreated. The jade pipa then returned to its normal appearance.

“Now, you should be convinced,” Li Yunmu said with a slight smile while looking at Liu Bailing. The joy in his heart was growing slowly, and the feeling of taking the girl for himself rose in his heart.

Naturally, that feeling was not because of Liu Bailing’s appearance, but the fact that she was the holy daughter of Pipa Clan. She had decided to sacrifice herself to save her clan, which made Li Yunmu recall the time when the parallel planes were about to merge and his family and relatives were going to meet a tragic death. At that time, he had run to the Origin World to find a method to prevent that.

Li Yunmu saw Liu Bailing as a fellow sufferer and empathized with her.

The girl gave the jade pipa to Li Yunmu and solemnly said, “Now, I give Ancient God Lakshmi to you. I hope that you can resurrect her.”

“Prepare a room for me.”

Liu Bailing led Li Yunmu to her room, then began to clear up the mess with other villagers. Chen Xiu, who had been kneeling on the ground, looked at the room occupied by master, then followed Liu Bailing with a strange complexion.

In the room, Li Yunmu was sitting cross-legged while the jade pipa was placed on a table.

The system’s voice echoed in his mind, suspiciously asking him, [How do you intend to rescue her?]

“I don’t know!” Li Yunmu said in a deep voice.

[You don’t know and yet you promised that little lass to save Ancient God Lakshmi. You have developed some feelings toward that little lass; otherwise, why would you promise to undertake this task]

The system sighed in exasperation, then began to analyze the situation. [Ancient God Lakshmi used those children as bait to fool Asura. But in reality, she was hiding in this jade pipa, waiting to seize Liu Bailing’s body. As the holy daughter of Pipa Clan, she would naturally guard the jade pipa all the time.

[As long as Liu Bailing kept using it, the two of them would fuse with each other. After several days, the ancient god’s soul would’ve completely integrated with the little lass’ body and, from that moment on, she would be the new Ancient God Lakshmi. Are you hoping that this little girl will not disappear or do you want to make her disappear?]

Li Yunmu did not reply. When Liu Bailing used the jade pipa, he had sensed the presence of the ancient god within it. Therefore, he stopped Chen Xiu from fighting for the children emitting the five-colored light, since they were clearly bait.

The four young masters, however, did not look at the jade pipa. As far as they knew, as long as one of them took the children emitting the five-colored light, the others would go and ambush them mid-way.

The instant Ming Xiu decided to stay, Li Yunmu made up his mind to kill him and quickly dealt with him.

But the reason why he did so was just as the system said: When he saw Liu Bailing for the first time, he had developed some feelings for her, and didn’t want her to become Ming Xiu’s concubine or allow Ancient God Lakshmi to remove her soul from her body. But he himself was not completely honest with her either.

“That’s why I want you to summon the soul of Ancient God Lakshmi so I can have a chat with her,” Li Yunmu explained. When an ancient god had sealed herself in a near death state, only the system could wake her up.

An almost transparent wave of energy flew out from Li Yunmu’s mind and knocked against the jade pipa.

In an instant, it blossomed with five-colored light, illuminating the whole room. A globe of divine energy erupted from it. Within it, there was a ball of light.

With the system’s powers, the divine energy’s tentacle-like threads were removed from the metasphere, and the presence of an ancient god spread through the room once more.

“God father!” 1

A voice like that of a yellow oriole rang out, and the metasphere began to fly around. After circling around the room a few times, it returned to its original position.

“How can you have the presence of god father!” the voice asked with suspicion from the metasphere.

Li Yunmu looked at the metasphere, then asked with a completely calm expression and cold tone, “You are Ancient God Lakshmi? I didn’t expect that you, one of the seven ancient gods, would surprisingly resort to seizing your own people.”

“Hmph, why must this goddess explain her actions to you! Since they are my people, then when this goddess is facing difficulties, they must respectfully offer themselves. This is their honor. Even if you have defeated us, you still mustn’t interfere in the matters of Lanlou.”

“Oh, despite only being a wisp of a soul, you are still this arrogant?”
