Chapter 1878: One divides into two
What they were worried about did not happen. Nothing untoward happened to Sima You Yue.
As a steady flow of Chaos Qi flowed into the Eye of the Dragon, it released white rays of light that penetrated through the layer of moss, illuminating the entire riverbed. Not only that, but when that ray of light landed on them, it felt incredibly comfortable. Even the beasts by the River of Oblivion felt like they were wrapped in a warm embrace.
Sima You Yue watched as the Eye of the Dragon got brighter and began to shrink, and a smile snuck onto her face.
It was actually useful!
She didn’t know how much of the Chaos Qi she imbued into it, but the Eye of the Dragon had finally shrunk to the size of a human head. It hopped up and down in front of her and even ran to her and rubbed itself against her, acting very intimately.
Sima You Yue stretched forth a hand and carried it. It was not as heavy as before, and she did not feel like there was anything special about it when she carried it up.
“Young Miss, could you let me carry it?” Black Shadow was standing by her side and his gaze was locked onto the Eye of the Dragon. He even subconsciously licked his lips.
It was the Eye of the Dragon! If he was able to carry it, he would be able to brag about it to others forever.
Before this, they couldn’t even sway it. Right now, she was actually able to hold it in her arms. It should not be a problem anymore, then.
Sima You Yue thought that it was fine to let them carry it since they wanted to, so she handed it over. Black Shadow happily stretched forth a hand to carry it, but his arms were almost broken from the weight. It was a good thing that he had let go of it the moment he felt its weight. Otherwise, he would have been crippled.
“Dammit, why is this so heavy!” He took two steps back and patted his chest with fear.
“Is it very heavy?” Sima You Yue lifted it up with one hand, “No it’s not!”
“It should be because the Chaos Qi you imbued into it carried your aura. You’ve already been acknowledged by the Eye of the Dragon, so you are able to carry it.” Hades explained. Then, he turned to Wu Lingyu, “You try.”
Wu Lingyu stretched forth a hand to carry the Eye of the Dragon and it obediently let him.
“It’s not heavy.” He examined the Eye of the Dragon closely. It looked like an ordinary item.
“It looks like it only acknowledges the two of you.” Black Shadow was extremely envious of them.
Wu Lingyu had fused with it, so it was natural that he would be able to move it. As for Sima You Yue whose aura he had acknowledged, she also had a status similar to his master.
Sima You Yue was pleased, “Then if we ever end up in a fight that we can’t win, we can just use it as a weapon to wipe the floor with our enemies!”
Eye of the Dragon moved in Wu Lingyu’s hand. It was unknown whether or not he was disagreeing with her or excited about what she said.
“Alright, Lingyu, keep it away. Now that the situation is settled, we can prepare to head back.” Sima You Yue stepped forward and held his hand, saying happily.
“It’s not that easy.” Hades spoke up and poured a bucket of cold water on her idea, “If it leaves just like this, the River of Oblivion will be finished.”
The River of Oblivion appeared because of the Eye of the Dragon. If they took it away, then wouldn’t the River of Oblivion dry up? Then it would impact everything by the riverside. Then the beasts by the river…”
“Could it be that we have to give up after reaching this step?” Sima You Yue’s expression fell immediately.
If it happened before she went to Chaos World, she wouldn’t have a care about the river beasts. However, after seeing the world change in the chaos world, she started to care subconsciously for these innocent lives.
However, if there really was no choice, she would still choose Wu Lingyu.
“My King, do you have any solution!” Black Shadow couldn’t bear to see Sima You Yue disappointed and placed his hopes onto Hades.
“What solution could I have? I can’t make another Eye of the Dragon appear and place it here.” Hades looked at how troubled Sima You Yue was and felt like she was a lot angrier than before.
The Eye of the Dragon was one and only. It was impossible to find even a replacement for it. Sima You Yue was momentarily stuck in a dilemma.
It was at this moment that the Eye of the Dragon released a piercing white light, forcing everyone to close their eyes and block it with their hands.
By the time the light rays dissipated, everyone opened their eyes only to be stunned by what they saw in front of them.
“Two Eyes of the Dragon?” Black Shadow pointed at the second Eye of the Dragon with shock as his mouth fell wide open.
Hades was stunned as well. Earlier on, he had just said that he couldn’t make a second Eye of the Dragon appear and here it was now.
“They’re different.” Wu LIngyu said, “This one has a relationship with me. I can’t feel any connection with the other one.”
“So you’re saying that this Eye of the Dragon appeared to stay behind in the river of oblivion?” Sima You Yue stretched forth a hand to poke at the Eye of the Dragon that just appeared. It slowly floated back to where the Eye of the Dragon originally was, even growing to a similar size to what it was before.
“Looks like it.” Hades didn’t think that this problem would be solved so quickly. “However, in the end, it was formed from a part of the Eye of the Dragon. Who knows what kind of implications it would have to lose half of it. I will get my men to keep watch over this place. If anything happens to the river of oblivion, I will send my men to look for you.”
Sima You Yue knew that the river of oblivion originated in the underworld and that the river beasts inside it were from the underworld. If it was impacted, the underworld would definitely be impacted as well. As the king of the underworld, he had a responsibility towards life in the underworld.
However, she felt that since the Eye of the Dragon took the initiative to split itself, it proved that it knew this would be useful. As such, she was not very worried.
Following this, Wu Lingyu kept the Eye of the Dragon away. From then on, he would not need to be locked here. They came to the shore and, perhaps it was because they were going to part ways that it felt a little solemn.
Finally, it was still Hades who spoke, “When are you leaving?”
“Now.” Sima You Yue held onto Wu Lingyu, “I want to head to the imperial capital quickly to find out where my mother is being imprisoned. Then, I want to rescue her.”
“Based on your current strength, I’m afraid that you’re still lacking a little.” Hades disdained her little bit of strength. At that time, he had let her cultivate while she was in the underworld but this girl was deathly unwilling to and wasted so many years.
At this time he had forgotten that he was the one who said that she would have to remain in the underworld if she cultivated in there.
“I have Lingyu now! And my cousin who has prepared for many years.” Sima You Yue smiled at Wu Lingyu, her eyes filled with confidence. With him around, there would definitely be no issues.
Hades saw the look in their eyes and waved his hands impatiently, “Go on go on, looking at you makes my eyes hurt.”
“My King, are we going to continue following them?” Huan asked.
“Of course. Based on her trouble-making personality, she is bound to cause some trouble sooner or later. You guys follow her. While protecting her, you have to tell me if anything fun is going to happen.” Hades said, “Although the underworld has a contract with the ghost realm, it doesn’t mean that we’re not going to keep tabs on things. You two have to be more flexible. Don’t lose the face of our Underworld, got it?”
Huan and Black Shadow were ecstatic. Their King had given them power! In the future, they would not have to be afraid of the slightest thing when they were getting things done!
“We will definitely protect the Young Miss well!” They replied in unison. As for a certain someone, he had been neatly overlooked.
