“No, you can’t say you’re going to kill ,” the remnant soul responded, detecting the killing intent in Ye Lengan’s words. It quickly added, “If you kill , you won’t find out anything.”
“But still, I can’t extract any information from you,” Ye Lengan replied with a cold laugh. “That’s why I’m saying you have no value to . Moreover, you’ve been dead for many years. I don’t want to kill you; I want to obliterate you completely.”
She was serious, with a genuine intention to follow through. She had no plans to let this remnant soul, who had caused her a tragic fate in her previous life, continue existing in this world.
“I’ll tell you everything.” The remnant soul’s voice quivered. It no longer cared to hide anything. “As long as you spare , I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.”
“Who are you exactly?” Huangfu Ruiling asked. “When a person dies, their soul should vanish. Were you a cultivator in your past life?”
Even powerful individuals in the Hidden World didn’t always leave behind a remnant soul after their deaths. Moreover, judging by the remnant soul’s aura, it didn’t seem like it belonged to a strong cultivator.
Hearing Huangfu Ruilings question, Ye Lengan chose to remain silent, patiently awaiting the remnant soul’s response.
What followed was a prolonged silence. It was unclear whether the remnant soul was hesitant to answer or contemplating how to respond.
Huangfu Ruilings brows furrowed, his eyes turning cold.
Eventually, the remnant soul pleaded for rcy again. Then, like spilling beans, it quickly began sharing its story, “My original na is Zhongyu
Zhenhua, and I was the head of the Zhongyu family in the Hidden World. Later, when I ventured alone into a secret land, I t my demise there. Before my death, I had already reached the initial stage of the Golden Core Realm. I was on the brink of complete soul dispersal, but I carried a family heirloom with at that ti, which left behind this remnant soul.’
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Ruilings eyes held a glint of realization.
“You’re aware of it!” Ye Lengan imdiately deduced when she saw Huangfu Ruilings reaction. “Your mother’s surna is Zhongyu as well.”
“So, you also have the bloodline of our Zhongyu family?” the remnant soul’s voice revealed a hint of hope. Perhaps it believed that with a trace of shared lineage, it might escape its fate today.
Huangfu Ruiling didn’t spare a glance at the remnant soul. His full attention was on Ye Lengan. When facing Ye Lengan’s inquiries, he responded promptly, “Although my mother’s surna is Zhongyu, our connection with the Zhongyu family in the Hidden World isn’t particularly close. As for Zhongyu Zhenhua, many in the Hidden World have knowledge of him. This individual vanished suddenly three hundred years ago, taking with him the
Zhongyu family’s treasured Five-Colored Stone. According to him, it was the
Five-Colored Stone that preserved this remnant soul. All these years, the Zhongyu family has been in relentless pursuit of the Five-Colored Stone’s whereabouts. You should understand that with the Five-Colored Stone in their possession, the Zhongyu family’s cultivation will advance more rapidly, and their foundation will beco stronger.”
Ye Lengan nodded and then turned to the remnant soul and inquired, “What about the Five-Colored Stone? Do you still have it?”
“I’ve already refined the Five-Colored Stone,” the remnant soul admitted. “It was the absorption of all the spiritual energy within that allowed to maintain this remnant soul and survive in this world.’
“But it’s clear you don’t wish to remain in this state,” Ye Lengan remarked with a wry smile. “Honestly, what is your relationship with Ye Xiyuan?”
Ye Xiyuan was once an ordinary person, yet she had suddenly beco extraordinary. It was evident that the remnant soul had played a significant role in her transformation. However, the nature of their relationship remained a mystery.
With Huangfu Ruilings nacing presence, the remnant soul dared not conceal any details. It proceeded to reveal its entire story.
It turned out that the power derived from the Five-Colored Stone, after many years, was on the brink of depletion. Zhongyu Zhenhua was unwilling to dissipate completely, so he sought ways to revive himself..
