Chapter 281 The second-tier cultivator dared not be angry with the World King, but Shui Qingli dared
Chapter 281 The Second Tier dared not be angry with the World King, but Shui Qingli dared.
"Water Prince!" Upon seeing Shui Qingli's sudden arrival, Zhen felt as if he had seen a savior: "What are you doing here?"
"Fifth Rank, what are you dressed like...?" Shui Qingli glanced at Zhen again, still finding his appearance somewhat jarring—she regretted listening to Qianqian and coming to the human world to save him.
"I..." Zhen, who was already somewhat ashamed, was now completely humiliated.
However, in order to avoid further harm from Mo Sha, Zhen shamelessly asked Shui Qingli to rescue him: "Forget about all that, Prince Shui, please save me from here."
“Zhen, after you came to the human world, you turned into a doll and lost your magic…” Shui Qingli asked, seemingly asking a question, but also stating a fact: “Have you met Mandora and been tricked by her?”
"……Yes."
"Your mission failed?"
"……Yes."
"Even the World-Speaking Armor was taken by Mandora?"
"……Yes."
"Failed mission, lost the Worldly Armor is bad enough, but to be humiliated and fooled by humans like this is bad enough." Shui Qingli said helplessly, her words carrying a sense of disappointment: "Fifth rank, you are really useless."
"..." Zhen was truly speechless this time. He had only been locked up in the forbidden land for too long and wanted to get out and move around. How did it develop into this situation?
Besides, his strength was only half of what it was at its peak, so he couldn't unleash his full power. And wasn't it right for Mandora to team up with the Ye Luoli warriors to ambush and scheme against him?
He lost because he was too arrogant about his own abilities and couldn't outsmart the cunning Mandora.
"Alright, I'll send you back to the Forbidden Land first. I can't do anything about the sealing spell on you, so I'll have to let him remove it." Shui Qingli said, about to cast a spell to open a passage: "But you should know the consequences of failing the mission, so good luck..."
"I understand..." Zhen knew who Shui Qingli was referring to as "him," and he also knew what would happen if his mission failed, but he still had to return to the Forbidden Land.
After all, although it was good to leave the forbidden land and regain freedom, Zhen really didn't want to stay in the human world in the form of a doll without immortal power, especially since he had "misjudged people" and bound himself to a "little devil" master.
The human world is terrifying! How could anyone want to dress a baby boy in a princess dress?!
However, the most urgent task now is—
"Wait a minute!" Zhen suddenly called out to Shui Qingli.
"What's wrong?" Shui Qingli stopped casting the spell and looked at Zhen with a puzzled expression.
"Could you... change my clothes back?" Zhen asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Since Mandora took away the Worldly Armor, Zhen has been turned into a doll. Moreover, because of the Wild Stone, he not only has no tacit understanding with Mo Sha, but has even become enemies with her, so he can't use magic at all now.
If he were to return to the Forbidden Land dressed like that, who knows how much he would be ridiculed? Would he even have any face left in front of his colleagues?
"..." As it turns out, when you're speechless to the extreme, you can't say a single word.
Shui Qingli restored Zhen's clothes to their original state. Although he couldn't understand Zhen's aesthetic sense, at least they looked much better than that princess dress.
"Oh, right, Zhen, could you pass me a message while you're at it?" Shui Qingli thought for a moment, then used her immortal power to write a letter and handed it to Zhen: "Be sure to deliver this to Yuan...King Shi."
……
Forbidden Land
Before the unmoving golden gate, a slight fluctuation of immortal energy suddenly appeared. Yue Yuanming immediately sensed that this fluctuation of immortal energy belonged to Shui Qingli.
To his disappointment, it was not Shui Qingli who returned to the forbidden land, but Zhen, whom he had sent to the human world to find Shi Yan Kai.
Moreover, although Zhen has now returned to the normal size of a fairy, the obvious doll joints on his body and the almost imperceptible fairy power still reveal that he was turned into a doll before.
"Fifth rank?" The other Dharma Aspects were all surprised to see Zhen, who had just left, return.
"It was the second-tier one who brought you back, right?" Yue Yuanming said calmly. Judging from Zhen's condition, he must have failed his mission and been rescued by Shui Qingli.
“…Yes.” Zhen bowed respectfully, not daring to speak.
At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly think that Yue Yuanming and Shui Qingli's auras were indeed equally suffocating.
"Zhen, do you know the price of mission failure?" Yue Yuanming leaned lazily against the throne, speaking in a calm voice that was terrifying.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger." The invisible pressure made Zhen lower his head even further. He presented the letter that Shui Qingli had given him: "Second-Rank also asked me to deliver a letter."
Upon hearing this, Yue Yuanming immediately lost his composure, stood up from his throne, and took the letter from a distance.
He opened the letter Shui Qingli had sent; the paper contained only a few lines of light blue writing—
"His memory has been restored, and his return date is uncertain."
Mandora is collecting World-Speaking Armor.
Beware of the stars.
The mastermind behind this is someone else.
Looking at these few lines, Yue Yuanming's emotions were complex—
She regained her memory and still worries about him, but she just won't come back. Is she still angry with him about that incident?
He's the only one who dares to get angry with me...
