Chapter 493 Being tricked
“You’re right.” Adele glanced at Xue Wenyao. “It’s true that he got himself into this mess because he meddled too much.”
When Xue Wenyao saw Adai looking over, he turned his head away to avoid her gaze.
Adele's eyes flashed with even more mockery upon seeing this.
Mingguang ignored their past grievances and said indifferently, "Nothing about today's events shall be revealed."
Upon hearing this, Adele looked at Mingguang and frowned, saying, "So, you don't intend to let them go?"
"I really don't plan to."
“Adele, human affairs are none of your business, you’d better mind your own business.” Qingyu looked at Adele: “Besides, your current condition is not suitable for you to get involved, it would be better for you to leave with us as soon as possible.”
leave?
Adele didn't speak, but looked up at the people. She had originally planned to leave the snowy region before self-destructing, so as not to harm the people who were being manipulated, but now...
Since Mingguang didn't intend to let them go, there was no need to wait until he left to self-destruct. Self-destructing now would at least allow him to take Yingchuan, Xue Wenyao, and those demons with him.
Thinking of this, Adele moved swiftly and flew into the air before Mingguang and Qingyu could react.
Seeing Adele's sudden movement, Mingguang looked up and said sternly, "Adele, are you going to break your oath?"
"What does it matter if you break your oath?" After saying this, Adele said no more. Before the power of the oath could backfire, she activated the true divine power that her mother had left on her soul and built a barrier to cover all the demons. In this way, she could prevent them from escaping and also prevent the power of the self-destruction from spreading to the palace complex and hurting others.
The moment the barrier was formed, Adele unleashed her power and self-destructed!
"Boom!"
As the deafening explosion rang out, a terrifying force spread in all directions like a tidal wave, turning ice, stone, and people into dust wherever it passed, which was then swept away by the swirling snow and wind.
Adele's self-destruction immediately shattered the defensive barrier, but because of the barrier's obstruction, the subsequent power, even when it spread, was not as intense. The palace complex was still affected, but this was the best possible outcome.
After a long time, the force that had spread out gradually disappeared, and without its influence, the falling snow gradually returned to normal.
On the execution platform, after confirming that Adele's self-destruction power was beginning to dissipate, Mingguang and Qingyu withdrew their power, removed the barrier, and looked around.
The people from the Xuan Bird Demon Realm and those originally used to threaten Ade turned into dust, disappearing into the wind and snow without a trace.
After glancing at it, Mingguang's face turned extremely ugly.
He wanted to refine his divine soul into the puppet so that it could travel further in the divine realm. Therefore, he had been secretly keeping an eye on divine descendants like Adele who possessed the bloodline of a true god but were not in the divine kingdom. However, both he and Adele faced restrictions when going to places with spiritual energy. But the demons were different; they faced fewer restrictions in the outside world. For this reason, he had to cooperate with the demons. The demons sent people to help him capture Adele, and he shared information about the divine realm with them. He thought that Adele's matter was settled, but he never expected to be tricked!
Not only did he fail to capture Adele's soul, but he also lost so many demons. These demons were elites sent to him by the Xuan Niao Demon Realm. Although they were partners and he was a god-king, not afraid of trouble from the Xuan Niao Demon Realm, he had to compensate the Xuan Niao Demon Realm for future cooperation. However, demons are never easy to deal with, and he was going to lose a lot this time.
Thinking of this, Mingguang turned to look at Yingchuan and Xue Wenyao: "You two hid faster than even the people of this Divine Lord."
Xue Wenyao didn't dare to breathe loudly in front of someone like Mingguang. Ying Chuan was a little better. When he heard Mingguang say this, he respectfully said, "It is because the barrier built by the God Lord is wide enough that we two were able to save our lives. Thank you, God Lord, for saving our lives."
"Heh." Mingguang sneered, about to say a few more sarcastic remarks to the two of them, when his gaze swept across the room and he saw Adele's corpse.
Compared to mocking Ying Chuan and Xue Wenyao, it was Ade who Ming Guang hated the most at this moment.
Adele possesses the bloodline of a true god, and such a body is still useful even without a divine soul. However, she cannot enter the divine realm. As long as she cannot enter the divine realm, Mingguang will not be interested. Thinking of Adele's trickery, Mingguang's eyes darkened, and he looked at Yingchuan and Xue Wenyao: "This plan has failed, and I am extremely displeased. I did not want to let you go, but now there is something I need you to do. If you do it well, I will not pursue the matter."
Upon hearing this, Ying Chuan respectfully replied, "Please give your instructions, Divine Lord."
Mingguang looked at Yingchuan: "Didn't Ade say she'd rather die than not save your daughter?"
"Since Adele cares about her so much, you should find a way to kill her."
"This..." Ying Chuan didn't know what to say for a moment. He had treated Chunri the way he did before in order to obtain Ade's power. He hadn't shown any mercy to Chunri because she was going against him. Now that Ade was dead and his goal had failed, he naturally had no need to deal with his daughter anymore.
"What, you're not willing now?" Mingguang said coldly when he saw that Yingchuan did not agree immediately. "Ade not only tricked me, the God Lord, but also ruined your plans. Don't you want to kill the people she cares about?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Chuan knew there was no room for discussion. Although there was no need to deal with Chunri since his goal had failed, Mingguang had made the request, and he could not disobey the Mingguang God for the sake of his daughter. He said in a deep voice, "Please rest assured, God, we will definitely handle this matter well."
“That would be best.” Mingguang placed his hand on Yingchuan’s shoulder, leaving a mark of power: “This god cannot stay long, but it is not that I cannot come. I will give you a year. If you fail to kill Chunri within a year, then this god will have no choice but to let you go and keep Ade company.”
Ying Chuan lowered his head, completely unlike his usual arrogant demeanor towards his disciples: "Please rest assured, Divine Lord, I will definitely complete it within a year."
"Alright." Mingguang withdrew his hand: "This deity believes in you."
"Since you've been somewhat obedient, I, the Lord of Gods, can lend you a hand." After saying this, Mingguang threw out a stone, and the next moment used his power to lift Adele's corpse and send it into the stone: "I have sealed her body in a divine jade. This divine jade contains my power, which will slowly corrode her body. Chunri has the power given to her by Adele, and she can sense it. If she doesn't want Adele to die a gruesome death, she will definitely come to save Adele's body after she finds out. At that time, you can just kill her."
After listening to Mingguang's words, Yingchuan nodded: "Yes."
"Besides the matter of killing spring, today's events must also be handled properly." Mingguang said coldly, "I spared your lives, hoping you will not betray my kindness. If even a whisper of what happened today gets out..."
"You know what kind of ending this will have."
Upon hearing this, Ying Chuan immediately assured, "Please rest assured, Lord God, I will definitely handle today's matter well. Even if Chunri were still alive, I can make the people believe what I say instead of what she says."
"Okay." Mingguang responded without saying anything more and left with Qingyu.
The memory stopped after Mingguang left. Lingyi looked at Adele and asked, "That's it?"
