"Your aura feels different, not quite like Liu Qingqing. What’s going on? What has happened to you over the years?"
By the side of a beautiful lake in Dazhuang City, Li Yi looked at the woman in front of him wearing a red cheongsam and red high heels; he had not mistaken her. Her appearance was indeed the sa as Liu Qingqing’s.
"Li Yi, I truly didn’t expect to see you again after so many years. If only you hadn’t chosen to leave the Ghost Post Office back then, maybe many things could have changed. But unfortunately, you ca back too late. By the way, I’m no longer called Liu Qingqing. You can call Hong." Hong slowly said, with a faint smile on her face.
But this smile was particularly stiff, not like a living person, more like a puppet.
Li Yi said, "I had no reason to stay in the Ghost Post Office to deliver letters. Leaving was the inevitable result. Moreover, with my abilities, I wasn’t confident I could get through the fifth floor of the Ghost Post Office. However, since you’re still alive, it ans the post office’s mission is over, and you’re free."
"Free? Who can be free once they are entangled with the supernatural?"
Hong still wore a smile on her face, "Just as you sensed, I’m not truly Liu Qingqing. To survive in this world, there are always so prices to pay."
Li Yi stared at her for a mont, "I think I understand. You not only have Liu Qingqing’s aura but also the aura of a stranger. It seems the power of spiritual energy rged you two unrelated people together, forming a new personality. This new personality inherits the mories of both individuals."
His current cultivation was strong, and he had also cultivated the Primordial Spirit Dharma. At such a close distance, his perception of the aura was very precise.
"Li Yi, your intuitive perception is as sharp as ever. You figured out the truth right away. That’s what makes you unique. Also, if I saw correctly when you ca over here just now, you should have... been flying?"
Hong brushed her black hair by her ear, showing a bit of curiosity in her cold and numb eyes.
"Although I’ve seen others fly before, that was due to using supernatural powers, while you are still an ordinary person with not a trace of a supernatural aura, which makes very curious... or is it true that the Transcendent can truly achieve this?"
Li Yi looked at her and said, "What, are you interested in the Transcendent?"
"A little bit, after all, in a world filled only with the supernatural, encountering soone with such extraordinary power like you is inevitably intriguing to ," Hong still smiled.
As soone who inherited the mories of Ghost Tar Zhang Youhong from the period of the Republic and modern Ghost Tar Liu Qingqing, Hong could be certain that such transcendent power had only been seen in Li Yi.
There were so martial artists in the past, but they all fell within the range of normal understanding without surpassing it.
"If you’re really interested, I can demonstrate so transcendent power. However, correspondingly, there are so things I need your help with," Li Yi said.
"No problem," Hong agreed readily, a mischievous smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
Li Yi said, "Aren’t you going to ask what kind of help I need?"
Hong said, "Whatever help it is, currently in this world, there’s nothing I can’t do."
Her mischievous smile conveyed absolute confidence.
"That’s good then."
After Li Yi finished speaking, the seemingly clear sky suddenly erupted with a bolt of shocking thunder, resounding across the sky.
Hong’s smile slightly faded, and she looked up. Even though she didn’t understand transcendent powers, that thunderbolt just now was clearly unnatural, definitely not a natural occurrence.
"Is this all? I still want to see a bigger spectacle, or is this the extent of your abilities, that the thunderbolt just now was already your limit?"
Her words carried a tone of provocation, coupled with that stiff smile, truly infuriating.
"Hong, don’t provoke . Demonstrating the might of the Transcendent in this world is not a good thing; it can easily create so negative impressions," Li Yi said.
"Even the worst impact is better than a supernatural outbreak, killing tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands in days. This world’s resilience is far stronger than you imagine. You don’t need to worry about the consequences. If anyone causes you trouble, I’ll handle it," Hong said, also dispelling Li Yi’s concerns.
"Since you say so, then I’ll satisfy your curiosity and show you true transcendent power."
After Li Yi finished speaking, the mana within the ninety acupoints of his body rang simultaneously, the power of the Divine Blood was activated, and the cosmic energy between heaven and earth was affected and summoned by him. A fierce wind started to blow from nowhere.
Boom!
In the next mont, a silver bolt of lightning, like a hideous giant dragon, crossed the sky, then shattered and transford into countless lightning bolts densely covering the sky. As a tiny bolt of lightning fell, the nearby lake’s surface was directly overturned by a mighty force, with large amounts of lake water surging in all directions.
Witnessing this apocalyptic anomaly, so passersby nearby were almost paralyzed in fear on the ground.
Li Yi rely pointed with a finger.
Countless silver bolts of lightning struck down from the sky, all converging at one point.
Being so close, Hong showed no fear. Her cheongsam emitted a faint red glow, an icy aura spread out, protecting her from external influences. But when she saw the boundless silver lightning interwoven in the sky, a hint of amazent appeared in her eyes.
This power was terrifying...
And with this power imbued within himself, Li Yi remained completely unhard.
As she watched Li Yi entangle countless bolts of lightning in his hands, Hong’s smile grew even wider.
In just a matter of seconds, the overwhelming lightning dispersed, all concentrated in Li Yi’s hands. These bolts of lightning interwove into a Lightning Spear, held in his hand.
"This strike alone is enough to destroy hundreds of miles of territory," Li Yi said calmly, then raised his hand and threw the Lightning Spear into the sky.
The terrifying aftermath swept through, dispersing the clouds between heaven and earth in an instant. At first glance, it seed like the sky itself was split open. That pure power, vibrating and spreading, transmitted through the air, making one’s hair stand on end and striking fear into the heart.
"It’s truly a world-destroying might." Even the well-inford Hong showed a look of astonishnt at this mont.
A person doesn’t rely on supernatural powers, yet can achieve this.
If Li Yi desired, he could absolutely destroy the entire world.
Unfortunately, what this world seeks isn’t the power to destroy, but to save. No matter how strong this power is, it can’t kill fierce ghosts, so it can’t save the world.
Watching that terrifying power in the sky gradually dissipate, Hong’s curiosity was finally satisfied, and her eyes returned to their usual numbness and lifelessness.
However, the sly smile at the corner of her mouth didn’t disappear. She clapped her hands and said, "A splendid performance, far more interesting than an opera. Li Yi, you truly make delighted."
"Hearing you say that makes feel like a street perforr," Li Yi said.
"A street perforr doesn’t have your kind of skills," Hong said, then added, "I already have an understanding of transcendent powers. To be honest, with your abilities, even without supernatural powers, there’s nothing in this world that you can’t accomplish."
Li Yi said, "My power is rely brute force. It can’t reverse ti and space, nor change life and death. That’s why I crossed worlds to seek the help of supernatural powers."
Hong laughed, "Your power can’t reverse ti and space, nor change life and death, and you think supernatural powers can? If that’s why you ca, I’m sorry to disappoint you. In my mory, there’s no one, no Ghost Tar who can do that."
"Perhaps your level is too low, and the Ghost Tars you’ve encountered are too ordinary, which is why you don’t know that supernatural powers can reverse life and death," Li Yi said.
"My level too low? The Ghost Tars I’ve t are too ordinary?"
Hearing this, Hong’s smile froze on her face.
If soone else had said that, they’d be a dead person by now.
But after all, Li Yi is one of the few people she’s had dealings with, so she had to suppress her feelings for now, then she asked, "Li Yi, I’m very curious, who told you that supernatural powers can reverse ti and space and change life and death?"
"A man nad Yang Wei," Li Yi said directly.
"Yang Wei? Never heard of him, there’s no such person in the supernatural circle," Hong recalled seriously, then shook her head. She’s sowhat familiar with anyone in the supernatural circle with decent power and a na, but Yang Wei isn’t among them.
Li Yi said, "You might not know Yang Wei, but you definitely know who created him. Rember my last letter delivery task on the third floor of the Ghost Post Office a few years ago?"
"I rember," Hong said.
She inherited everything from Liu Qingqing, so she naturally wouldn’t forget her ti at the Ghost Post Office.
Li Yi continued, "Back then, a newcor nad Yang Jian ca to the third floor, and the Yang Wei I know was created by him."
"Yang Jian... Yang Wei?"
At this mont, Hong frowned, "I’ve dealt with Yang Jian a few tis later. If you say he can create a person with supernatural powers, I can’t deny that, but if you say he can reverse ti and space and change life and death..."
She initially wanted to instinctively deny it, but upon recalling so experiences, she changed her tune, "He indeed has supernatural powers that can reboot. It’s just unfortunate, you’re late, Yang Jian is missing."
"Missing?" Li Yi was stunned for a mont.
"I haven’t seen him for years now, nor heard any news. In the supernatural circle, a Ghost Tar going missing often ans death. You should know, using too much supernatural power and the Ghost Tar might revive as a fierce ghost," Hong said.
Hearing this, Li Yi grew even more puzzled. Did Yang Jian succumb to the fierce ghost revival after crossing worlds and delivering a strike during the Sky Tipping incident a few years ago, leaving only Yang Wei bouncing around on Earth?
Seeing Li Yi lost in thought, Hong continued, "If you want to find him, I suggest you try your luck in Da Chang City. So of his relatives and friends are in that city. If even they don’t know Yang Jian’s whereabouts, then he is surely dead."
"Okay, I’ll take a stroll through Da Chang City."
Li Yi nodded slightly, for so reason, the na Da Chang City reminded him of his hotown Tianchang City.
But since he has crossed into this world, he naturally won’t give up easily. He definitely wants to clarify matters before considering anything else.
With that thought, a cloud rose beneath his feet, preparing to set off.
"You’re leaving now?" Hong asked in surprise.
"That’s right, want to co along?" Li Yi asked.
Hong smiled slightly, "I won’t go. I’m here just to see so old acquaintances, that’s all. After all, there are not many friends left who have survived."
"Then you can rest assured, I’ve cultivated well and can easily live for thousands of years, not that easy to die," Li Yi said with a smile, "Since you’re not going, I’ll head off first. Keep in touch by phone if anything arises."
"Li Yi, wait," suddenly, Hong called out to him.
"Is there anything else?" Li Yi turned back.
Hong brushed her black hair blown by the wind and asked, "How is the other world, fun?"
"Not fun, frequent disasters, constant fighting and killing, bloody and cruel, countless deaths," Li Yi said.
"Didn’t expect the other world to be like this, truly uninteresting. Li Yi, you must be careful," Hong sighed with emotion.
Li Yi nodded, then imdiately set off, riding the clouds towards Da Chang City.
Although he is reluctant to use transcendent powers too much in this world, speeding up the journey is necessary as it saves a lot of ti.
