Chapter 656

Xia De came to the Doctor's place early in the morning, and he didn't plan to go to Midhillburg in the morning either, because he had to see Yin Yi Yi Lu Na off. After returning home last night, Luweiya, who was stargazing on the third floor, told Xia De that the Sun Sect had officially decided to let Yin Yi Yi Lu Na take a steam airship to Midhillburg, departing this afternoon.

According to the wind direction of this season and the weather along the way divined by the Astrologer Society, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na and her party should arrive at the Mountain City during the day on Monday. Since she was leaving and it was unknown when she would return, Luweiya decided to see Yin Yi Yi Lu Na off at No. 6 St. Deran Square.

This was the reason Xia De came to disturb the Doctor so early; he had to go home as soon as possible.

Although for Xia De, who could travel between the two places at will, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na's "departure" was limited to the two days she spent traveling in the air. But once she reached Midhillburg, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na would not be able to see Xia De at any time, so Luweiya wanted to tell her some things to prevent unexpected situations.

It was clear that the seventeen-year-old girl didn't want to leave Tobesk either. When parting with Xia De and Luweiya, she hugged both of them reluctantly, and even hugged the somewhat unwilling Little Mia.

"I will send you postcards."

When she finally stood in the downstairs hall and thanked them, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na said with some reluctance, and Xia De wisely did not say that he could also buy postcards.

"In short, you must be careful in Midhillburg. If something happens, remember to write to the Blind House that Xia De mentioned, and Xia De will go to help you."

Luweiya reminded her tirelessly.

Although Yin Yi Yi Lu Na had held a ceremony to advance to the Fourth Ring after obtaining the 【Tragedy】 spirit rune, once again one ring higher than Xia De, in Luweiya's eyes, she was still an immature girl who had just reached adulthood (Note: 16 is adulthood).

"Yes, I know, don't worry about me, I'm very capable."

She hugged Luweiya again:

"You guys be careful too, especially Xia De."

As she spoke, the young girl looked at Xia De again:

"The Sect has opened some internal materials to me, and the situation in Midhillburg is really bad right now."

"I have high-level Ringed Shushi friends there, they will protect me."

Xia De said with a smile:

"We'll see each other in Midhillburg on Monday. Although I can't go to see you directly, I can go to the entrance of the Sun Church and wait for your party to enter the church. Remember to look around then, you should be able to see me... Oh, take this, I think it will be useful."

As he spoke, he took out his pocket watch, took a 【Ye Zi of Eternal Youth】 from the watch cover, and handed it to Yin Yi Yi Lu Na. After the banquet ended, he had three leaves in his hand, and the reserve of leaves was very abundant.

When the three of them broke into the ruins to confront the Silver-Eyed One, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na had seen this kind of leaf, so Xia De didn't need to explain what it was:

"I still have plenty, you take it."

"Alright then."

She hesitated for a moment, took the leaf, then stood on tiptoe and kissed Xia De on the side of his face:

"Then wish me a smooth journey, Xia De."

Xia De glanced at Luweiya, and seeing her watching the two of them with a smile, he said softly:

"Smooth journey, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, see you in Midhillburg."

Today is Friday, the fourth day of the Harvest Moon. After seeing Yin Yi Yi Lu Na off, Luweiya also left and returned to the Astrologer Society, so Xia De finally had time to write a reply to Miss Leaving Xiao Leaving Xiao Miya Gao De.

The letter arrived this morning, but Xia De was in a hurry to go to the Doctor's to ask about the Fire Demon, so he didn't even open the letter.

This letter, like the letters of the past few months, in addition to the usual 10 pounds for cat maintenance, still expressed Miss Gao De's concern for the orange cat.

Miss Gao De also indicated her physical condition in the letter; she unfortunately fell ill in the summer, and her condition became more serious last month. But this month the situation seemed to have improved a little, at least that's what the letter said.

In Xia De's reply, he first expressed his concern for his client, and then described in detail the daily interactions with Little Mia. In the end, he praised the cat's lovability and wrote with a sigh:

【If I could meet a cat like this, I would have adopted it.】

This was also part of the probing; Xia De was looking forward to a suitable time.

He was now very much like Miss Gao De's pen pal, the two exchanged a letter a month and communicated on the topics of cat raising and physical health. In the past few letters, Xia De had appropriately expressed his love for this cat, so taking this step further to say such things was to finally be able to say that he wanted to adopt the cat in the winter.

"I really went to a lot of trouble for you."

He put down the fountain pen in his hand and touched the cat squatting on the desk looking at the letter on the table. Touched by Xia De, Little Mia squinted her eyes and meowed~, looking very satisfied.

He had thought about going to Midhillburg for a walk after sending the letter, and if there was nothing to do, he would come back at four in the afternoon to read at home. But before Xia De could go out, Luweiya, who had only left for an hour, actually came back.

"What's wrong? You couldn't find new news about the Chosen One of Death?"

Luweiya had a spare key here because she was going to conduct autumn stargazing activities at Xia De's place. When she walked up in a hurry, she almost scared Little Mia.

"No, no, it's the thing you asked me to check!"

She held a notebook in her hand:

"A while ago, didn't you ask me to investigate the 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】? Just after I left your place and arrived at the Society, I got the documents!"

"Oh, what news is there?"

Xia De asked curiously, and a smile appeared on Luweiya's face:

"Very good news, Xia De, the 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】 is indeed related to the sect of the ancient god that has disappeared! Guess which ancient god's sect branch they are?"

"Hmm... Moon?"

"Of course not, it's Death, why would you think it's the Moon?"

Luweiya asked curiously, beckoning Xia De to sit down, and then handed him the notebook in her hand:

"I provided effective intelligence to the Society during the Dark Descent event in Tobesk, so I was able to get this classified information this time. This information is top secret, the original intelligence cannot be taken out of the Society, and the notebook contains the content I copied. It's really interesting, guess what the Society recorded?"

Xia De looked down at the notebook:

"After the ancient god 【Ancient Death God】 left, because of problems with the interpretation of the doctrine, its sect disintegrated into different factions, and with the passage of time, evolved into different organizations... 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】 is a branch of the ancient Death Church?"

"Yes, and more than that, look further back."

Luweiya looked very excited:

"I didn't expect the Society to be willing to open such materials to me. Although the Society's statement is vague, and even just glossed over, I can see that the Society's records state that the Church of Creation and Destruction and the Church of Nature and Evil Thoughts each absorbed a branch of the ancient Death Church."

"What?"

Xia De looked at her in surprise:

"The Orthodox Church absorbed a part of the Ancient God Church?"

"Yes."

Luweiya nodded, her smile very obvious:

"This explains a lot of things. The reason why the Orthodox Gods are more powerful than the existing evil gods, and the reason why the Orthodox Gods are called Orthodox Gods, I think a bold guess can already be put forward!"

"Yes. After the first thirteen gods left, other Great Ones inherited part of their power."

Xia De also stated his judgment. This was an idea he had after communicating with Miss Aphra on the train back to Coldwater Port after obtaining the "Vibration" spirit rune through the 【Earth-Shaking Worm】:

"But they didn't inherit all the power. Those two Orthodox Gods only inherited part of the power of the 【Ancient Death God】, otherwise it cannot be explained why the sects that believe in ancient gods have some branches integrated into the Orthodox Church, because their doctrines can be explained, and for people living in the era when the ancient gods left, this is not apostasy!"

"Yes."

Luweiya was very happy that Xia De could keep up with her thoughts.

"However, what intelligence did you submit to make the Society willing to share such information?"

"Nothing much, part of the rules of the 'Chosen One' mentioned by Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, and the information about the 'Dark Dungeon' you told me. Also, didn't Yin Yi Yi Lu Na mention that the Dawn Church also suspectedly has a Gate of Darkness (Chapter 548)? I told the Church about this too."

Luweiya said.

"How did you explain the source of the intelligence?"

Although the Society knew that Luweiya's divination was sometimes "very accurate," such intelligence could probably not be divined.

"Didn't I leave alone to find rescue in the dark realm? During this period, I encountered a strange shadow, and it told me."

"What shadow?"

Xia De asked curiously.

"How would I know?"

Luweiya shook her head, somewhat smugly:

"Let the Society guess. Anyway, the intelligence I provided is completely accurate. For a diviner, the process of divination is not as important as the conclusion. After all, people only care about the result."

After the ancient gods left, the Orthodox Gods, the Old Gods, and the existing evil gods inherited part of the power, which was something Xia De had already guessed. He even thought that the difference between "miracle" and "blasphemy" should also be related to this. But it was only after hearing Luweiya's intelligence today that this point was truly confirmed.

The secret of the departure of the ancient gods and the source of the power of the existing gods also had a lot to do with Xia De. After all, the ultimate goal of his path to godhood with twelve divinities was to become a true god.

And since Luweiya knew that the 【Spirit Cultivation Sect】 was a branch of the ancient Death Church, she encouraged Xia De to have more contact with the Spirit Cultivation Sect.

Perhaps Sister Daifulin, whose eyes could see souls, really was the third Chosen One they had been looking for for a long time.
