Chapter 153: Chapter 153 Soul

Chapter 153 Soul

"Ah, my dear guests!" King Oscar beamed. "Please take your seats." He motioned them to sit down before he held the hands of the woman sitting next to him. "This is my dear wife. Queen Leonila."

'I was thinking, he would have a harem of women following him around.' Fang Yu said inside Mo Li's head.

In response, Mo Li smiled. 'He used to. The woman… This woman was his latest bride. She wasn't here when I came to this place.'

The two sat next to each other in silence.

"This is…" King Oscar didn't continue his words when the huge door that led to the hall burst open, three knights bowed before approaching him.

"Your highness… we have an emergency." One of the knights said before he leaned closer towards the king and spoke softer. Of course, it was still enough for Fang Yu and Mo Li to hear.

"They are attacking us?"

"Yes, your highness." Another knight said.

Almost immediately the king and queen stood from their seats. "Tell me everything." King Oscar said but before the knight could speak, the king looked at Mo Li and Fang Yu. "Dear guests, please enjoy your meal without us. We have an emergency." Without waiting for them to answer, the king turned his back and left the hall with his wife.

Seeing this, Mo Li and Fang Yu looked at each other before they also stood and followed the king and queen. The two of them heard that the beastmen were actually attacking the palace.

'They wanted to see if one of us can use space.' Mo Li was already used to this kind of scheme. So, he immediately warned her. 'Be careful.'

Pursing her lips, Fang Yu nodded. The two walked behind the king and queen silently as the king and the knight continued talking.

"They already breached the east gates? How is that possible?"

"Those people were really strong. They easily destroyed the walls using their brute strength. The ones that can fight them were the cultivators but even them… they are still no match because of the enemy's number."

"But that shouldn't be possible." The King gritted his teeth. "How did they increase their numbers… unless… someone actually transported them in this dimension?" Perhaps a space user? The King's heart hammered against his chest. He already noticed Mo Li and Fang Yu following him so he maintained a calm expression. "Then… deploy the cultivators with higher cultivation."

"Yes, Your highness."

"Did you spot their leader this time?" the Queen asked. "If we could kill their leader then… then we would have a chance to survive this attack."

"No, your highness. They are attacking in batches and we didn't spot anyone leading them."

"Then… this maybe an organized attack." The king said. "Meaning, the leader should be staying far away from the palace. While all the lower level beastmen attacked us. Prepare the explosives. We will fight them until they all die."

When the queen notice Mo Li and Fang Yu following them, she halted her steps and look at them, wondering why they were following them. According to the king, these two were here for a vacation. Did they finally change their minds? With this, the queen said. "Guest Immortals, please forgive me for asking but… but… right now we needed people that could fight against the beastmen… if you could… " She hesitated for a few seconds. "We would give everyone rewards the medicines that you could use to advance. We also have herbs that were only available in this world. So, if you could fight to save us…"

"Your highness…" Mo Li answered. "We are not fighters. We would like to apologize but my wife and I both have weak bodies. We can't really survive long fights. And we are not that powerful either." Mo Li immediately declined. Why the hell would he fight and save people over some medicines?

The queen nodded. She actually understood his point. The two just got married so it would be reasonable for them to avoid conflicts and prioritize their safety above anything else. "Please excuse me dear guests but please go back to your rooms for now. We don't want you to get caught up in the fight." She looked at one of the knights standing in the hallway. "Accompany them in their room." She said before turning her back and following her husband.

Seeing the queens resolute expression, Mo Li shrugged and held Fang Yu's hands before they went back to their room. When the two arrived, Fang Yu immediately sealed the space with magic.

"I supposed you didn't have an issue about us coming back inside the room?" Mo Li asked. Fang Yu didn't protest nor tried to convince that woman to watch the war. That could only mean one thing… she wanted to go back inside the room.

"No. But… I have an issue with that woman." She sat on the bed and frowned. "When I saw her… I had a feeling that she looked familiar. As if… as if I have met with her before."

"And? Did you?"

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. I am certain. However… I met someone that looked exactly… not exactly. But someone with a lot of similarities with her eyes and lips."

His gaze darkened. "Who?"

"I didn't kiss him." She said when she saw his expression changed. Did he think that she kissed that person just because she knew what his lips looked like? Almost immediately the expression on his face eased.

"Let me guess… someone from the Sect?"

"Yes."Fang Yu nodded.

"Who it is?"

"Fatty Lu."

"Lu Xiaotan? That man who followed your disciple?"

She nodded in response as she remembered that Fatty Lu was the first one who tried to initiate a conversation with Ji Tian during the test. Since then, he had been quietly following Ji Tian. As if… as if he knew that Ji Tian would turn powerful soon.

She watched as Mo Li frowned.

"Lu Xiaotan… didn't come from a prominent family." Mo Li frowned.

"How did you know?"

He shrugged and explained that to keep Dong Hu safe, he had researched all new disciples that just enrolled because he was worried that they were not humans.

"So, he is human? And not a soul?" Fang Yu asked.

"He is human just the same age as Ji Tian, I believe he was a water elemental user. His aptitude was also very average but the increase of his cultivation…" He narrowed his eyes. Now that he thought about it, that Fatty had been very lowkey and had been acting as an innocent bystander. Because of this, Mo Li didn't bother checking his cultivation level.

"I understand." Even Fang Yu didn't see anything wrong with the fatty. She just thought he would be someone that would develop a great friendship with the male lead and would act as a sidekick. Along with Yunyun, Fatty Lu had been treating Ji Tian well. "What are we going to do about it?"

"We proceed with the plan then leave and go back to the sect." Mo Li's expression was solemn. "I was certain that the Queen paid a lot to make that Fatty reincarnate and go back in time. She actually tried to reverse the law of the universe."

"What does that mean?"

"Meaning… she needed souls. Hundreds or thousands of souls in exchange for making Fatty Lu go back in time. It means… that she was using the power of someone from the divine race." He stood and suddenly pulled her up. "Let's go."

"Where?"

"Use your space to follow the Queen. She might use this opportunity to collect the souls of the wounded."

"What are we going to do if she did that?" Fang Yu asked.

"Naturally, we kill her. The Queen's death would sever her contract."

She lifted an eyebrow and smiled. "I didn't know you were that righteous."

He frowned in response. Righteous? Was that a word that he recognized? Seeing the curiosity in Fang Yu's eyes, Mo Li suddenly laughed, he threw his head back as he gave a maniacal crazed laughter. "Ah… you are so smart. My wife is indeed very smart even I am surprised." His face suddenly turned dark. "That's right. I wasn't planning on doing it out of goodwill." He walked towards her. In response, Fang Yu took a step back. Her instincts on high alert.

"Then… are you… are you planning to know the identity of the divine creature that she summoned?" She felt her heart raced. If her guess was right then… Mo Li….

"That's right." He nodded, his eyes narrowed towards her. "Someone like that…. Could help me… determined the identity of the soul residing inside your body."

She trembled inwardly as she stared at his eyes. "What— what are you talking about?" For the first time, Fang Yu felt an indescribable fear towards Mo Li. Does he know that she was not originally from this world? How the hell did that happen? 'Robot… I need your help.' She called out.

As usual… she didn't receive any response.
