Chapter 478: Blurred Image

The Emerald City, one of the most famous neutral cities on the Continent, is also a holy land that many yearn for. Here, you can see countless people of different races coming and going, and you can also see many specialties from certain races.

"Is this place the Emerald City? It really is an extraordinary place!" Chen Jing looked with curiosity at a Dwarf reeking of alcohol who walked past her.

Although that Dwarf was only about a meter tall, he looked extremely sturdy. From his thick knuckles, it was clear that this Dwarf was someone who performed manual labor often. However, what concerned Chen Jing most was the terrifying power hidden within the Dwarf's body, like a volcano waiting to erupt. In Chen Jing's estimation, this Dwarf's strength was likely approaching the Saint Domain Mid-stage.

"Is the Saint Domain so worthless here?" Chen Jing's gaze swept across the entire street, a trace of astonishment flashing in her eyes.

You must know that in the Haoxing Empire, one of the Three Great Empires, Yaoxing City is already a high-ranking major city. In such a city, there are only three Saint Domain experts on the surface: the Yaoxing City City Lord, the Garrison General, and the Chief Archmage. But in the current Emerald City, there were two Saint Domain experts on just one street. Although these people hid their auras well, Chen Jing's Mental Power had already converted nearly half into Divine Sense, so these people's concealment methods clearly could not deceive her.

"It is indeed a bit exaggerated. I remember that there didn't seem to be this many powerhouses in the Emerald City before!" Aiweier also said with a frown.

"Hmm, listening to your tone, it seems you haven't come here little," Lingyun glanced sideways at Aiweier. "Didn't I remember you saying that the Elf Race has been avoiding the world for a long time?"

"Th-this, well..." Aiweier touched her head and let out a silly laugh. "At the time, I just felt that staying in the Morning Light Forest was a bit boring, so I secretly slipped out using a Space Scroll I made myself. This Emerald City is the place I visit most often; the outside world is much more fun than the Morning Light Forest."

"You just used a Space Scroll to come out like that, without encountering any obstacles?" Lingyun's brow furrowed instantly.

"No!" Aiweier shook her head.

Hearing Aiweier say this, Lingyun's eyes narrowed involuntarily. Others might not know, but Lingyun was very clear that the entire Morning Light Forest was shrouded in a super-large Array, and this Array contained some of Lingyun's own handiwork. Most importantly, this Array possessed the ability to seal space; ordinary Space Scrolls could not be used within the Array at all!

If one were to say that the Scroll Aiweier made possessed the ability to break through the Array's spatial seal, Lingyun absolutely would not believe it for a second, because the spatial sealing ability within the Array was laid down by him back then. If it were broken so easily, wouldn't that be a joke? Moreover, due to certain non-replicable reasons, this Array could not be damaged within three thousand years, which ruled out quite a few possibilities.

"Is it a matter of permissions?" Lingyun's gaze landed on Aiweier.

Just as Chen Jing could freely mobilize the Star power within the Star Array after being granted top-level permissions, if Aiweier had the same high level of permissions in the Morning Light Forest's Array as Chen Jing had in the Star Array, then the spatial sealing power in the Morning Light Forest indeed could not affect her.

Now there was only one question: why would Aiweier possess such high-level permissions in the Morning Light Forest's Array? First, from his usual conversations with Aiweier, Lingyun could be certain that Aiweier was absolutely not some Princess who had snuck out of the Elf Race. Second, she did not hold any important position within the Elf Race; she was just an Elf girl with a special spatial talent. The most important point was that Aiweier did not know she possessed these permissions.

"It seems there are quite a few secrets on Aiweier that even she herself doesn't know. However, the fact that she possesses these permissions definitely cannot be hidden from Andiya; perhaps she might know something!" Lingyun muttered in his heart.

"Lingyun, what are you looking at me for!" Aiweier said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Ahem..." Lingyun turned his head away quickly. Only then did he realize that because he was pondering Aiweier's problem, he had been staring at her for quite some time without realizing it.

Just at this moment, Aiweier suddenly felt a blur before her eyes, and then she found herself appearing in a vast forest at some unknown time.

"I tell you, this Goddess will definitely master the power of space, and then find you!" Under a huge tree, a girl whose face could not be seen clenched her fists and said solemnly to the person in front of her.

"Is that so? Then, I will wait for you!"

The person in front of her chuckled and handed a Light Ball swirling with Seven-Colored Light to the girl. Subsequently, six pairs of huge light wings slowly unfolded behind him, and countless light spots drifted out from his body.

"It seems time is running out. We shall meet again!" As the light spots continued to drift away, the figure of the person with the wings gradually faded. "By the way, you must take good care of the few little ones I left behind!"

"I, I know!" The girl reached out her hand as if to hold the man back, but the man completely dissipated at this moment.

Seeing the man disappear, the girl slowly squatted to the ground, her body beginning to tremble.

"I will definitely find you!" Aiweier said slowly, her tone carrying an unshakable firmness.

"Hey, hey, Aiweier, what are you saying? Find who?" Just at this moment, Lingyun's voice sounded abruptly in her ear, "And why are you crying?"

The scene in front of Aiweier suddenly shattered, and Lingyun appeared before her, looking at her with a face full of confusion.

"Eh, what happened to me?" Aiweier reached out to touch her cheeks and discovered that she had been crying without realizing it.

Lingyun flicked his hand, and the tear stains on Aiweier's face vanished, but he could still feel that Aiweier's mood was somewhat low.

"What's wrong, Aiweier?" Lingyun asked.

"Nothing, just feeling a bit uncomfortable inside." Aiweier sniffled and shook her head, "Lingyun, I want to go back first. You guys go ahead and look around!"

Watching Aiweier's state, Lingyun nodded, then stuffed a Jade Talisman into her hand: "If any situation arises, activate this Jade Talisman!"

Aiweier took the Jade Talisman from Lingyun's hand and turned to walk toward the inn. Lingyun watched Aiweier's back, a sharp light flashing in his eyes. In that instant just now, he had sensed a peculiar aura from within Aiweier's body. That aura was extremely similar to Aiweier's, yet it was also different. It was precisely because of the appearance of this aura that Aiweier had fallen into this abnormal state.

"You had better pray that you have no ill intentions toward Aiweier; otherwise, no matter how deeply you hide, I will drag you out and completely Shatter you!" Lingyun said in a low voice.
