The phenomenon appearing in the Yuhai Continent attracted the attention of some people, but it did not affect those emerging from the Millennium Ruins—what truly impacted them was not the starry sky, but rather a person: Ouyang Zixin.
To ensure that no one would be in danger due to her negligence in this unknown space, Ouyang Zixin decided to expand the range connected by the Mysterious Energy. Currently, only she could accomplish this, as the other four had fallen into an unconscious state.
After assessing the positions of the five human-like light spots, Ouyang Zixin silently estimated how much Mysterious Energy would be required and how long it would take. She was uncertain whether she could sustain it for that long.
"Master, regardless of whether those five light spots are truly human, what does it matter to us?" Nameless lacked human emotions; to him, the safest approach was to maintain the status quo until they could leave. He did not care whether those light spots were human or not.
However, Ouyang Zixin was different. As a human, she possessed compassion and a sense of responsibility, along with other richer emotions. Therefore, she could not ignore the possibility that those five Light Spots might be human. She shook her head and sighed lightly, "I wish I didn’t know all this. Ignorance is bliss, but since I do know..."
At that moment, she was unsure whether to be grateful for the moral education she received on Earth or regretful for being so earnest during classes that now led her to take on some trouble.
"This space is vast, and it will take a long time; you are seeking your own demise." The woman's voice sounded somewhat urgent, seemingly disapproving of Ouyang Zixin's actions.
Ouyang Zixin might explain herself to Nameless, but she couldn't be bothered to explain anything to this woman because no matter what she said, the woman would never understand.
Raising her arms again at her sides, Ouyang Zixin allocated different amounts of Mysterious Energy according to the proximity of the Five Human-Shaped Light Points. The closer Light Spot was connected with slightly thinner Mysterious Energy, while the farther ones were linked with slightly thicker Mysterious Energy. Only through reasonable allocation could she sustain the connection for the longest time possible. Watching five streams of Mysterious Energy fly from her fingertips and split into five colors surprised her slightly—blue, orange, purple, white, and black.
"How can there be Black Qi?" The woman exclaimed as if discovering a shocking secret. "You... how do you have black Mysterious Energy?"
After a moment of surprise, Ouyang Zixin calmed down; after all, she knew well that her internal Mysterious Energy was complex. As for Black Qi—what was there to be alarmed about? It was merely the Mysterious Energy absorbed from Yun Tianmo's body earlier. If she remembered correctly, there should still be a brilliant type of Mysterious Energy within her that belonged to an older man. Ouyang Zixin had no interest in why this woman was so astonished; her focus remained on controlling the Mysterious Energy to achieve minimal output while maintaining a lasting connection.
"Speak! Where did this Black Qi come from?" The woman persisted relentlessly. Even though Ouyang Zixin had no intention of responding to her, it seemed she wouldn't relent until she clarified the origin of this Black Qi.
...
Nameless, what color do you see in the Mysterious Energy released by Yun Tianmo?
Ouyang Zixin was annoyed by this woman. Was she blind? Yun Tianmo was right beside her; couldn't she see that the Mysterious Energy he released was black?
——Master, isn't the energy released by the Ink King just ordinary Azure Profound Energy?
Nameless was a bit confused by the question. Was the master too tired?
Blue?
How could that be?
Ouyang Zixin looked at Yun Tianmo in front of her. The Mysterious Energy emanating from his palm was clearly black. How could Nameless say it was blue?
Could it be that this was why that woman kept asking about the source of the Black Qi?
"Look at the people around me; what color is the Mysterious Energy they are releasing?" Ouyang Zixin rarely took the initiative to speak to that woman. Some things needed to be clarified.
"What color? It's all blue." The woman sounded somewhat disdainful, her tone reflecting her contempt for Ouyang Zixin's question.
Due to her arms still controlling the Mysterious Energy, Ouyang Zixin couldn't turn around to look. She could only glance left and right once, and indeed, as the woman said, the energy released by those four people was uniformly blue. If Yun Tianmo could also release Azure Profound Energy, she wouldn't be surprised since wasn't the elder able to do that too? But what about the others? Was it merely a coincidence that they all practiced Blue Xuan, or was there another reason?
"Why are you asking this?" The woman's initial disdain turned into curiosity as she sensed confusion from Ouyang Zixin, though it wasn't very obvious.
"Just asking casually," Ouyang Zixin replied nonchalantly and then closed her eyes, choosing not to speak further. She knew that the Mysterious Energy she controlled came not only from these four people but also from five others outside; she couldn't afford to waste any energy.
In this unknown space, everything was quiet, devoid of any sound, as if it were a vacuum. Time gradually passed, and several times Ouyang Zixin felt her strength waning, but she gritted her teeth and persevered. She had thought about taking out some Azure Leaf Tea to replenish her energy and Mysterious Energy, but Nameless informed her that in this space, he couldn't freely use his small space.
This is a sad story.
——Master, the surrounding Light Spots are decreasing; it seems we are about to return to normal.
As long as the Five Human-Shaped Light Points do not disappear, I cannot ignore them.
When Ouyang Zixin heard Nameless's words, she felt a slight sense of relief. The change indicated a possibility for improvement; there was no need to persist in the same way. She believed that they were close to the end, close to getting out of this situation. She silently told herself to hold on a little longer, just a little longer!
"Hmph, you're clearly about to reach your limit, yet you still insist on meddling," the woman's voice echoed again, tinged with a sense of schadenfreude.
...
"You disappoint me greatly. Did you come back to play the role of a saint?" The woman's voice carried a hint of thin anger.
...
"You can easily let go of your own grudges, yet you care so much about these trivial people and matters. How did you become like this?!" The woman's voice began to sound frantic.
...
Silence enveloped the entire unknown space, interrupted only by the occasional voice of the woman who claimed to be Ouyang Zixin herself. In this silence, Ouyang Zixin sensed faint fluctuations; if it weren't for that, she might have thought everything had come to a standstill.
—Master, it seems there is an exit ahead...
Hmm, we are going home... (To be continued.)
