Chapter 33

Aether: "....."

Aether: "No, that's not me in this life."

Dai Yin: "Aether, is that guy you're talking about me?"

Aether: "Shut up, Dai Yin. You should quickly persuade Lumine that the grudges of the past life cannot be carried into this one."

【Aether holds a golden longsword.】

【His arm is about to strike down, but a wisp of purple-black thick smoke before him makes him pause.】

【He quickly retreated several steps.】

【"This is..."】

【"Abyss Curse?"】

..... Requesting flowers..

..... Requesting tickets.....

..... Requesting data.....

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you very much!!!.

Chapter 30: Compared to you, I am more suitable for the Abyss

【Su Bai, why do you think my brother became the Crown Prince of the Shenyuan Sect?】

【"I will go and help you find the answer."】

【No, that is too dangerous.】

【"Rest assured, I will not die before I bring him back and reunite with you."】

Su Bai's memory left the live-stream audience stunned.

In the scene, purple-black flames rose from Su Bai's body.

For those who have witnessed the power of the Abyss, there is no doubt.

The billowing black mist that rose up was undoubtedly power from the Abyss.

For a moment.

Lumine's eyes went blank, and she was completely dumbfounded.

Dai Yin: "Impossible, how could he be wrapped in the power of the Abyss?"

Lisa: "I don't understand. What on earth is going on?"

Amber: "We're doomed. Is Su Bai going to turn into a Hilichurl?"

Paimon: "Only non-pureblood Khaenri'ahns cursed by the Heavenly Principles can turn into Hilichurls. Su Bai has no Khaenri'ahn bloodline in him. How could he possibly turn into a Hilichurl?"

Yoimiya: "Then what is that black mist on him? It looks so eerie, so terrifying."

Tianquan Ningguang: "Could it be because he made a contract with Lumine in his heart, swearing he won't die until he brings Aether back, thus triggering some kind of power?"

Keqing: "That doesn't sound right. That's too eerie."

Arataki Itto: "To protect the vow, so he transformed into a monster?"

Yae Miko: "I'm not sure, but the scene is indeed quite frightening."

【Aether did not continue his attack, but quietly watched Su Bai, from whom black smoke kept rising.】

【At this moment, he too was stunned, unable to understand what exactly was happening before his eyes.】

【"I was just thinking about how to exhaust your strength."】

【"After much thought, it seems I must use power that counteracts your elemental power."】

【"You have fused the seven elements into one. Judging purely by sensation, it should be a power similar to light."】

【"I think the only thing that can counter it is a power similar to darkness."】

【Su Bai lay on the ground, muttering to himself.】

【Aether's expressionless face finally showed a fluctuation.】

【His brows furrowed tightly.】

【"So the Sky Island responded to your wish?"】

【Impossible.】

【Even if the Sky Island responded to Su Bai, it could not grant him the power of the Abyss.】

【What exactly is going on with all this?】

【"I'm not quite sure either, but it seems I succeeded."】

【Su Bai slowly rose to his feet.】

【The surrounding purple-black flames completely dissipated, absorbed into his body.】

【"I feel full of power now, Aether..."】

【During the conversation.】

【Su Bai casually waved his hand.】

【The moment the purple-black elemental power touched the rock wall, it silently pierced straight through the entire mountain range.】

【"Truly a very powerful force."】

【"But I feel it is very strange."】

【"In my current state, I should be more suitable for the so-called Abyss than you."】

【"Though you are the Abyss, you wield power representing light. To speak of it, it doesn't quite fit your image, Aether."】

【Su Bai smiled faintly, his gaze turning toward Yuan Shang in the distance, who was holding a lotus leaf and staring blankly.】

【"Don't you agree? Yuan Shang..."】

【"I remember you told me that you are usually a person who likes to read."】

"Then I ask you, who do you think possesses power more capable of representing the Abyss, me or Aether?"

Yanshang was dumbfounded.

"Two Ye, why do you both like to assign such difficult tasks to me?"

"I only pay attention to trivial things when I read books."

Yanshang: "Huh? Why is it so hard for me?"

Paimon: "It's true! I suddenly feel that what Su Bai said makes a lot of sense. He should be more suitable than Aether to become the master of the Abyss."

Raiden Ei: "Strange. How exactly did he acquire his power? Could it really be that the Celestial Island answered his prayer?"

Scirka: "Undoubtedly, the power Su Bai possesses now comes from the Abyss."

Lumine: "Brother, what is going on? Doesn't even the Shenyuan Sect know?"

Aether: "Lumine, we really don't know. That guy Su Bai's power should not be weaker than mine. Since he could suddenly acquire such terrifying power, the existence that granted him power must be one that surpasses me. I certainly don't know."

Lumine: "Ugh, so annoying. Su Bai must not do anything foolish. The power of the Abyss is not something easy to touch."

Yanshang: "Then let's ask the person involved. Su Ye, this power of yours..."

Su Bai: "I have forgotten everything about my past life completely."

Aether: "Hey, you probably used some high-tech stuff, right?"

Su Bai: "Is it possible that I myself came from the Abyss in my past life?"

Alice: "Pfft, Mr. Su Bai is so funny. However, what you said can indeed serve as a reasonable explanation."

Klee: "I feel Mr. Su Bai really likes Lumine. Does he want Aether to return to Lumine's side, and then replace Aether to become the Prince of the Abyss himself?"

Alhaitham: "Impossible. He lacks Aether's determination to restore the Kingdom of Khaenri'ah and his conviction to drown the divine throne. The Shenyuan Sect will not accept Su Bai."

"Hmph!"

Aether flicked his hand, and the light sword that had originally vanished reappeared in his hand.

"The Shenyuan Sect cannot accept you."

"I know what you are thinking. You want me to return to Lumine's side."

"But things are not as you think."

"Is that so?" Su Bai nodded slightly, as if understanding.

"Judging from the current situation, my power and your power are in a state of mutual suppression."

"In the struggle for victory, it depends on who can persist until the very end."

"Aether."
