Even Lily Bai couldn’t break through that red light. Now that he’s so weak, there’s no way he can get out either.
Lily Bai stared at him, feeling a little annoyed.
Can’t you at least try negotiating with them?
Does he really not care about his own life at all?
“Alright, you can send someone down. You’re allowed to take Bai Ze now,” said Xiao Qi.
Lily Bai looked at Max Mo. “Max, you go.”
But Max didn’t listen to her this time. He only looked at Evan Lan.
Evan nodded at him.
Only then did Max head down.
Sure enough, the red light around Bai Ze’s chair had vanished.
Max carried the unconscious Bai Ze down the mountain for treatment.
“Lily Bai, is it okay now?” Xiao Qi asked.
Lily Bai looked at him and asked, “Where does this teleportation array lead?”
“The Divine Realm,” Xiao Qi replied with a smile.
“The Divine Realm…” Lily Bai’s jaw dropped.
Xiao Qi nodded.
“Then why don’t you use your prophetic powers and take a peek at what the Divine Realm is like? What if you teleport in and it’s crawling with divine beasts, and they gobble you all up in one bite?”
Her words clearly reminded them.
Mabel Ames looked at Xiao Qi.
But Xiao Qi turned to Lily Bai and asked, “How are you so sure I’m the Prophet?”
“Because your brain energy is way stronger than a normal person’s!” Lily Bai stared at his head. “Go on, take a look. I’m curious about what the Divine Realm is like too.”
Xiao Qi didn’t say anything else and closed his eyes.
A surprising scene unfolded.
His hair gradually turned silver.
And it grew longer.
When he opened his eyes again, his pupils had actually turned silver too!
This was exactly the look Evan Lan had described to her—the Prophet’s appearance.
So he only transforms like this when he uses his prophetic power…
His body was trembling slightly.
After a while, he calmed down, his hair turned black again, and his eyes returned to their normal color.
“So? What did you see?” Lily Bai asked.
“No divine beasts,” Xiao Qi said, looking excited. “It’s absolutely beautiful.”
“Uh… alright then!” Lily Bai reached for the array stones, ready to place them in the four slots.
She quickly placed two.
With the last two in hand, she asked, “Are you going to kill Evan Lan?”
Xiao Qi said, “If you don’t put them down, I’ll kill him right now. If you do, and we make it to the Divine Realm, maybe I won’t need him at all and I’ll be fine myself. So, for you, cooperating with me is the only chance Evan Lan has to survive.”
“You’ve got it wrong,” Lily Bai said. “I mean, if you’re not in such a hurry to kill him, you should really take Evan Lan with you to the Divine Realm. If something goes wrong, maybe he can save your lives!”
Lily Bai was genuinely trying to help.
But honestly, good intentions rarely pay off.
Just as she finished speaking, something hard pressed against her head. “Enough talking! Open the teleportation array!”
Lily Bai rolled her eyes to glance up—the thing pressed to her head was that ‘Ultimate Weapon.’
“Alright, alright, I’m opening it!” Lily Bai said. “Don’t be so impatient! If the Divine Realm really still exists, it’s been here for who knows how many years—it’s not going anywhere!”
“Put them down!” Mabel Ames jabbed the gun harder into her head.
So Lily Bai placed the last two array stones into their slots.
Who knows how many millennia this array has been sitting here—and it still works.
As soon as the array stones were set, light surged within the formation—it was activated.
