As the closest person to the Divine Light Empress, Xi Xurou was fully aware of the environnt here in the secret chamber. It was almost impossible for an external force to penetrate it. There was only one possibility-that the Divine Light Empress had done this herself.
However, Xi Xurou couldn't understand how she had left the kingdom without facing a restriction from the Lord of Chaos. Could it be that she had indeed gone to the Haven under the Lord of Chaos's order?
Yun Lintian didn't think that was the case. He felt there was certainly a connection between the Divine Light Empress and the Lord of Chaos, but there must be sothing more to it. After all, there was no need for her to leave secretly if she truly wanted to enter the Haven. So, what was the mystery here?
"The power of ti..." Yun Lintian muttered to himself. His intuition told him that the Lord of Chaos must have a deep connection with the God of Ti. There was even a chance that they might be the sa person.
He turned to Xi Xurou. "What else do you know about the Lord of Chaos?"
Xi Xurou shook her head helplessly. "Unfortunately, I don't know much. I have never been to the Haven, after all, let alone t him."
Yun Lintian thought for a mont. "What did he tell you regarding Cai Xieren's situation?" "They told to cooperate with her in capturing you. As for how they transford her, I have no idea. Every Chaos Knight seems to have undergone such a transformation," Xi Xurou replied truthfully.
"Don't you find it strange?" Yun Lintian said. "Each of them clearly possesses the power of the creatures of chaos. The Haven is known as the land of purity. How co their knights have such an aura?"
Xi Xurou was stunned for a mont. She had never thought about it before, as the Chaos Knights and the Haven were distant concepts to her. It wasn't until recently that she had co into contact with them directly.
"Are you saying...?" She didn't dare to finish her sentence.
"Obviously, there's sothing wrong with the so-called Lord of Chaos. Perhaps he isn't what you all think he is," Yun Lintian shrugged.
"This..." Xi Xurou couldn't help but shudder when she thought about this. If the Lord of Chaos turned out to be one with the creatures of chaos, she couldn't imagine what would happen next.
"Think about it," Yun Lintian continued. "If he's that powerful, why wouldn't he deal with these creatures of chaos himself? Why would he shackle all the regents in their kingdoms instead of letting them leave to deal with the enemy?"
He paused for a mont and continued in a deep voice, "It's as if he was planning to wait for the right ti to do sothing."
Xi Xurou's expression changed slightly as she thought of sothing. She looked at him and said tremblingly, "The Gate of the Abyss... You..."
Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly and said nothing. Regarding this, he could safely say that no one understood the Gate of the Abyss better than him.
"What should I do next?" Xi Xurou was at a loss. She couldn't find the Divine Light Empress and couldn't complete the task she had been assigned. It seed there was no way out for her.
"You don't have to worry about the Lord of Chaos. I guess he cannot leave his ho," Yun Lintian said calmly. "As for the Chaos Knights, you don't have to be afraid of them, especially Dian Lun. He should know what he should or shouldn't do."
Xi Xurou was surprised by Yun Lintian's confident deanor.
"Understood," she nodded slowly.
"One last question. How much do you know about the other regents?" Yun Lintian asked.
Xi Xurou frowned slightly. "Among the other five regents, I've t the Ice Phoenix Empress, the Golden Qilin Emperor, and the Eternal Night Empress. In my impression, the Ice Phoenix Empress and the Golden Qilin Emperor are trustworthy. They are more upright in their actions."
"As for the Eternal Night Empress, perhaps it was because I practiced the profound light elent, but I always felt a strange, oppressive aura from her. I can't describe it. It was like there was sothing deep within her that made constantly on guard."
"I see," Yun Lintian nodded slowly. During this period, he had observed the Golden Qilin Emperor, Qi Zongwen, through the divine sense he had left on Lan Hanyu and saw nothing wrong with him. It seed Qi Zongwen had no problem. As for Lan Bingxue, it was hard to tell at the mont.
Since the encounter with the Chaos Knights, Yun Lintian felt that the six regents couldn't be trusted. They could have been colluding with the Lord of Chaos in secret, and he had no way to prove it. All he could do was remain on guard for the ti being.
"Let's go out," Yun Lintian said and walked out.
Cai Xieren had already woken up and was struggling to get up. The injury on her chest was so deep that she couldn't suppress it.
"How should we deal with her?" Xi Xurou asked.
"Let see first. I want to know how the Lord of Chaos transford her," Yun Lintian said and walked toward Cai Xieren.
"You... Don't co here!" Cai Xieren tried to channel her divine energy, but it was futile. Yun Lintian's aura quickly enveloped her and completely suppressed her.
"Relax," Yun Lintian said and reached out to touch her forehead. His divine sense quickly penetrated her body and entered her soul ocean.
Cai Xieren's soul ocean was a tumultuous sea of chaotic energy, a maelstrom of darkness that threatened to consu all light and life.
Yun Lintian's divine sense navigated the turbulent waters, its light piercing through the oppressive darkness.
As he ventured deeper into the depths of her soul ocean, Yun Lintian encountered a sight that made his heart clench with a mixture of shock and disgust. Cai Xieren's true soul, a radiant spark of life, was imprisoned within a cage of twisted shadows, its light dimd, its vitality
fading.
And in its place, a grotesque entity, a creature of chaos that Yun Lintian had never encountered before, occupied the center of her soul ocean. Its form was a grotesque amalgamation of darkness and shadow, its aura exuding a malevolent energy that chilled him
to the bone.
"So, that's how it is." Yun Lintian's eyes flickered with a murderous aura.
