Chapter 222

Ye Lin's words made Bai Siyou freeze in surprise. She was to calculate whether a dead person was truly dead? Was he joking?

But looking at Ye Lin's expression, which was serious and tinged with a hint of fear, Bai Siyou couldn't laugh at all.

She was even a bit curious: what exactly was the identity of the person in this tomb? It was enough to make Ye Lin lose his composure like this.

"I understand."

Bai Siyou noticed Ye Lin's abnormality. This time, she didn't just perform simple mental calculations; she directly activated the Eternal Cube, using its powerful Heavenly Derivation energy to calculate.

Logically speaking, calculating whether someone was alive or dead was a very easy task, and the result should be known in the blink of an eye.

But when calculating the person in this tomb, Bai Siyou felt like an ant trying to measure the height of a towering mountain. Cold sweat seeped from her fair forehead, and beads of blood even began to ooze from her body.

At the same time, above Qingcheng, the winds rose and clouds surged. Dark, heavy clouds gathered, instantly obscuring the stars and the moon across the sky, followed by the rolling of muffled thunder.

Bolts of angry lightning wove through the clouds, ready to strike down at Bai Siyou with world-destroying might at any moment, as if calculating the person in this tomb was an act of great rebellion, and Heaven was about to send down divine punishment.

"Continue, don't stop!" Ye Lin stared at the sky, ready to strike.

Sure enough, as Bai Siyou continued her calculation, a hundred-foot-long bolt of lightning struck down instantly, aiming to wipe out all of Bai Siyou's vitality!

At this moment, Ye Lin gripped the Imperial Gold Spear, with five legendary-grade pieces of equipment on his person, and charged directly at the lightning.

As Ye Lin thrust his spear, bolstered by his formidable strength attribute, the spear pierced through the lightning, shattering the bolt aimed at Bai Siyou into arcs of electricity that filled the sky.

Ye Lin let out a muffled groan; clearly, he had suffered significant injuries under the power of the lightning, and a burnt smell emanated from his body.

After shattering the lightning, the gathered thunderclouds were clearly enraged and began brewing an even more terrifying bolt. This time, the lightning even shimmered with a purple hue.

With a thought, his Undying Body instantly healed the injuries on Ye Lin's body. He stared solemnly at the angry lightning above; if that bolt were to fall, even he would likely be reduced to nothing.

Just as the purple-glowing lightning was about to fall, the thunderclouds suddenly paused, and then slowly dissipated.

"I've calculated it!"

At the same time, Bai Siyou collapsed to the ground below, gasping for air, her entire body soaked in sweat as if she had just been pulled out of water.

"What's the result?" Ye Lin asked urgently!

"The person in this tomb is indeed dead. Otherwise, if he were alive, the backlash from me trying to calculate him would have killed me instantly!" Bai Siyou's eyes were filled with lingering fear.

Hearing this result, Ye Lin let out a huge sigh of relief. His whole body felt much lighter, and a smile appeared on his face.

At the same time, he felt a bit ashamed. Student Zhuge Qianxing had given his life to help him repair the Eternal Balance, and he had actually been doubting him. Even Ye Lin felt he was being too much of a beast.

He walked to the front of the tomb and respectfully kowtowed three times.

"Master, I'm sorry. I had no choice; please don't take offense. Next Qingming Festival, I'll burn ten Rem figures for you to apologize."

Ye Lin was truly terrified that Student Zhuge Qianxing might still be alive.

Especially after the events in Bajin City, the psychological shadow Student Zhuge Qianxing left on Ye Lin had only grown. If Student Zhuge Qianxing were faking his death, then he really was just a pure tool.

To be honest, Ye Lin would rather face a group of Demon Emperors than face one Student Zhuge Qianxing. Only by truly standing opposite Student Zhuge Qianxing could one understand how terrifying the pressure this person brought really was.

Now that it was confirmed Student Zhuge Qianxing wasn't faking his death, the heart that had been hanging in Ye Lin's chest finally returned to its place.

"Let's go, let's go. Remember to arrange for someone to meet with Uncle Ji tomorrow to coordinate the food and water."

Ye Lin was in a great mood. He took Bai Siyou and left, then directly took the teleportation array back to Kyoto.

After Ye Lin and Bai Siyou left, a wind blew through the cemetery, causing the leaves of the cypress trees on both sides to rustle.

The light of dawn dyed the Da Xia Academy gold.

Ye Lin woke up early, hid his clone in the dormitory wardrobe, and then went out.

He first brought the three legendary-grade pieces of equipment with strength attribute bonuses he had set aside to Ji Lingyu. One good turn deserves another; since Ji's father had helped him so much, he certainly had to repay him through his only son.

After hearing Ji Lingyu call him "Foster Father" several times, Ye Lin went to find Duan Ling with satisfaction.

Duan Ling was pouting, and she wasn't as enthusiastic as before when she saw Ye Lin.

Clearly, she was still sulking over Ye Lin's "smooth move" of forcing her to go back last night.

Ye Lin also noticed that something was off with Duan Ling, so he took the initiative to find topics to make her happy.

"Duan Ling, do you know Liang Zhichao's grandmother?"

"Who is Liang Zhi? He's such a pervert!" Duan Ling frowned.

Ye Lin: "..."

Forget it, better not to bring up that topic.

The two soon arrived at the Kyoto Job Changer Guild.

This was the headquarters of the Job Changer Guild. Neither the strength of the job changers coming and going at the gate nor the tall, magnificent architecture could be compared to the Job Changer Guild in Qingcheng.

If the Kyoto Job Changer Guild was the bright moon, then the Qingcheng Job Changer Guild was a firefly. Other than the name, they were worlds apart in every other aspect.

And the entrance to the public realm was controlled by the Kyoto Job Changer Guild.

After Ye Lin and his companion stepped into the Job Changer Guild, a staff member took the initiative to greet them. After the two clarified their intentions, the staff member led them to the entrance area of the public realm.

Before they even arrived, a cacophony of shouting and noise reached their ears.

"Goblin Realm, looking for a mage above level 40 who excels in crowd control skills! Equipment doesn't matter, I'll carry! No women! No women! No women! Important things said three times; those goblins go crazy the moment they see a woman!"

"Abyssal Worm Realm, looking for a tanky Knight class! Must have full equipment at high-grade or above, level no lower than 45! No freeloaders! I hate freeloaders the most!"

"Succubus Realm, three spots filled, one needed! No level requirement, but base spirit attribute must not be lower than 1500 points! Those with strong willpower preferred! Those who are exceptionally vigorous and can physically tank the succubus in close combat are also preferred!"
