Chapter 227: What did you dream of? Could it be our past life?

Perhaps Lin Qingyue's words had an effect, and Dongfang Qi's body no longer repelled her spiritual energy.

And Lin Qingyue took this opportunity to channel her own spiritual energy into his body continuously, sorting out the chaotic spiritual power in his meridians and guiding it back to his dantian.

Feeling his breath gradually calm down, Lin Qingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just at this moment, a head poked in from the window, and when it saw the scene inside, it gasped, and then jumped into the hall in one leap.

The person who came was Lao Gui, who had been guarding the temple square all night, waiting anxiously.

In the first half of the night, the entire temple was quiet, and he couldn't figure out the situation, so he didn't dare to act rashly for fear of not being able to help and adding to the chaos instead.

In the second half of the night, he heard faint sounds of fighting.

But because of the special defensive arrays inside and outside the temple, he tried several times but couldn't break in.

It wasn't until dawn was approaching that the top floor of the hall suddenly emitted a powerful and dazzling golden light, attracting the patrol soldiers in the city.

After the golden light dissipated, the defensive array of the temple also suddenly failed.

So Lao Gui climbed in from outside the temple.

After entering, he saw the severely injured Lin Qingyue and the dying Dongfang Qi at a glance.

"Oh, how did you get hurt so badly? Young Master Dongfang Qi..."

Lin Qingyue said: "He is not dead yet, and he won't die!"

Lin Qingyue originally intended to perish together with Zheng Linggui, but because Dongfang Qi intervened, her Origin Power was not exhausted.

And although Dongfang Qi consumed most of his Origin Power, Zheng Linggui had been severely injured by Lin Qingyue at that time, so he was not completely overdrawn either.

In this way, it could be considered fortunate.

Lao Gui said: "The commotion here just now was too big. It has already alerted the Imperial City Guard, we must evacuate quickly, otherwise there will be another big fight."

As soon as the words fell, messy footsteps were heard from underground.

The commotion here just now was so big, it must have alerted others in the temple long ago. It was just that because of the confrontation between the strong, those monsters and ghosts didn't dare to approach easily under the pressure of the aura.

At this moment, the aura weakened, and they naturally wanted to rush up.

"Let's go!" Lao Gui transformed into his demon body and lay on the ground: "Let Young Master Dongfang lie on my back, I will carry him away."

Lin Qingyue's spiritual power was severely damaged, and Dongfang Qi was seriously injured, so it was naturally not suitable to continue fighting with the people in the temple.

So, she quickly placed Dongfang Qi on Lao Gui's back and urged: "He is seriously injured, be careful."

Lao Gui said: "You be careful too. We will go down from the window behind the temple."

Lin Qingyue nodded, watching Lao Gui carry Dongfang Qi and jump out of the window, landing steadily. She followed closely behind.

Almost the moment they left, a large number of attendants poured in.

What everyone saw was a charred mess.

The golden bricks in the hall were shattered all over the floor, and the hall pillars were broken and covered in dust. Even the statue of the Great God Guiyuan had collapsed, with its head rolling to the side.

The so-called divine protection had finally become a joke.

The attendants of the temple had been doing evil for these years, greedy and fat.

They firmly believed that power was a gift from the god, and although they had never seen the god's face, they were certain that the god lived on the top floor of the temple.

But now this place had become ruins; if there really was a god, how could it not even protect its own territory?

"The Archbishop is here!"

The Archbishop arrived at the top floor supported by two guards.

The Archbishop was a two-headed snake demon, and after having one head cut off by Lin Qingyue last night, his soul finally escaped, and it took him a whole night to be resurrected with the help of the other head.

At this moment, looking at the ruins of the great hall, he finally understood that the other party's true target was Zheng Linggui.

Others didn't know, but he knew very well.

Zheng Linggui was not a god at all; everything was a lie they fabricated together.

Zheng Linggui was a ghost cultivator, with unfathomable strength.

But at this moment...

He couldn't sense any aura of Zheng Linggui in the hall; did she... just die like this?

In shock, the Archbishop quickly calmed down and knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly: "This must be a test given to us by the god. The god wants to see if we are loyal and brave defenders of the Dao, which is why the Guiyuan Temple has suffered this disaster."

"And we... we failed to protect the temple, letting criminals enter and offend the god. The god must be angry, so he temporarily left the temple. As long as I find the criminals and bring them to justice, the god will forgive our mistakes."

After such high-sounding words, he successfully convinced his subordinates, who all shouted to capture the murderer.

A sinister smile appeared in the Archbishop's eyes: So what if she died? Anyway, no one knew the truth; if I say there is a god, then the god is everywhere. As long as the power within the sect does not fall, I am the true god of the world!

Li Fu.

Lao Gui did not participate in it last night, so his identity as the Xuanjiao Ambassador was not exposed.

After settling Lin Qingyue and Dongfang Qi in the Li Fu, he went out to inquire about news.

Before long, Lao Gui returned.

"Miss Lin, the Guiyuan Sect is really incorrigible! The false god has been destroyed, and they actually called this an assassination. Now the whole city is arresting the assassin, and there are patrol soldiers everywhere outside, checking every household for outsiders."

"Didn't you fight the Archbishop last night? Why didn't you just kill him? Hey, no—we can't let them continue to be rampant. Miss Lin, you are seriously injured, it's not convenient to take risks again. I'll find a way to kill the Archbishop, let's see how he can continue to play god!"

"Lao Gui!" Lin Qingyue stopped him and said, "His life, I left it on purpose."

"Ah? Why?" Lao Gui obviously couldn't understand.

Lin Qingyue said: "Killing him is not difficult. But what after killing him? There are other people in the temple, and the imperial court of the Guifang Kingdom is full of the Guiyuan Sect's power. They have already planted the god in the hearts of the people; if it cannot be pulled out from the heart, then killing more people is in vain."

Lao Gui heard this and paced anxiously: "Then what should be done?"

"I have been severely injured this time and need a period of recuperation to recover. After I recover, I will have my own means to deal with them."

Lao Gui nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, your and Young Master Dongfang's bodies are important, you two should recuperate well these few days. To be safe, I will claim to be ill at home, go nowhere, and guard outside the door for you, so as not to let others disturb you."

Damage to Origin Power is very harmful to the body of an immortal cultivator. In the following days, Lin Qingyue had to regulate her internal breath while helping Dongfang Qi heal his injuries.

Fortunately, Lin Qingyue's divine soul was strong enough, and after three days, it gradually eased and recovered a lot.

And Dongfang Qi's complexion also began to recover, and sometimes Lin Qingyue saw his eyelashes trembling, as if he was about to wake up but hadn't yet.

She looked at Dongfang Qi and asked murmuringly: "What did you dream of? Could it be our past life?"

What was the reason for the past life that allowed A Zhuo to resist the burning of the Red Lotus Karmic Fire and preserve his soul?

And herself, she should have also had her soul fly away and scatter in that fire, why did she inexplicably travel to the Qi Kingdom three thousand years later?

"Lao Gui."

She shouted loudly.

The door opened, and the loyal Lao Gui entered in response—he had guarded them outside for three days, never leaving for a moment.

"Miss Lin, your complexion is much better." Lao Gui had been worried every moment these past few days, and only now did the big stone in his heart finally fall.

"How is Young Master Dongfang? Why hasn't he woken up yet?" ===== CHAPTER 228 =====
