478 Longevity (2/2)

Saint Wagner!

This saint had retreated to the Papal Chamber due to his age, but now he had been awakened. He guided the countless musicians and created a subtle net. It covered the entire city and divided into several zones, sweeping back and forth.

Next, a giant wind tunnel opened in the Papal Chamber.

In the tunnel of light guarded by furious winds, dozens of auras as powerful as Wagner flowed out. Clearly, the saints outside had received the news and opened the wind tunnels from thousands of miles away. Wind tunnels could not teleport living objects but they could send their powers over.

The auras waited tensely for the worst case scenario. If anyone dared to act brashly, they would be attacked by the combined strength of these saints.

The dust of unrest quickly separated under the net and the situation began settling. However, it was clear that there were still many more problems. Now, they just needed time.

But among the various investigatory waves and ripples, a ray of dim moonlight flashed past. It was agile and fast, going under radar. Even when brushing past the grandmasters, it was like a breeze that did not alert anyone.

Covered by moonlight, Ye Qingxuan flew in the air. He was using the same technique as the purple-eyed griffin from days ago. He used the music theory system within him to construct a territory, isolating him from the outside world. Using the nature disturbance's repulsion, he flew up.

However, compared to the griffin's skill of landing and moving lightly like dust, Ye Qingxuan was still inexperienced and awkward.

He flew like a rocket. Not only did the wind whistle, but his turns were sharp and sudden too. He improved quickly within a few minutes but it was just a complete rookie turning into an amateur.

If Lola had not used the 'illusion realization' to disguise him, the Sacred City would take him down in a second. This technique could even turn death into an illusion. It was more than enough to disguise him.

Lola had wanted to come too but Ye Qingxuan rejected her. At that time, her expression had been dark.

”Are you sure you don't need someone to collect your body?”

”Don't jinx me,” Ye Qingxuan had sighed. ”I have something else I need your help with. This will determine whether or not I can go all out, so please.”

”What, help you get reinforcements?”

”In a place like the Sacred City it's easy to find an enemy, but tfinding reinforcements is harder than finding an archbishop without a lover.” Ye Qingxuan had sighed again. ”You have to help me find a place and a person. If he's not there, then leave the city and don't look back.”

”Who is that important?”

Ye Qingxuan said a name. After a long pause, Lola sighed and left without speaking.

Ye Qingxuan did not know if Lola had found him, but using his moonlight perception threads, he reached the sky above the Judgement Tower.

Above the silent and broken tower, Ye Qingxuan looked down on the ground. He pulled out the Eye of Silence that he had not worn in a while and exerted all his power. With the help of Anglo's secret royal artifact, cold moonlight lit up in his eyes, subtly illuminating a wavering shadow.

It was hidden under the tower and rippled as the music theory outside changed. It reached all the way underground. Ye Qingxuan had never seen something like it before.

A hidden territory?

But what attracted Ye Qingxuan more was a figure hidden in the ruins.

In Avalon, the Stein Chamber that contained the royalty's treasures was more like this. It was created by an individual piece of the aether world. It overlapped with the material world but was definitely not part of the material world.

Even in Ye Qingxuan's eyes, the figure was wrapped in a layer of water vapor. He was blurry even when Ye Qingxuan stared carefully. He could not tell if the man was a hallucination or really there.

The complex and careful territory had hidden his existence. He was impossible to detect with the naked eye or through observation.

Thankfully, Ye Qingxuan still recognized the griffin mask on his face and those emotionless purple eyes.

”Hey, we meet again,” Ye Qingxuan muttered to himself. He raised a hand and cold moonlight lit up. It solidified; the sharp coldness made his eyes seem fiercer as well.

”Let me greet you again.”

The purple-eyed griffin still had not noticed him. Ye Qingxuan threw down the sword!
