Chapter 14878 Black and White Impermanence
Xiao Lianzhu was clearly nervous at this moment, not because she was afraid of what was below the black well, but because she was worried that Ling Xiao would have a strange opinion of her.
Girls' thoughts can be a bit complicated sometimes.
"What's inside here? And what is this so-called underworld?"
Ling Xiao was clearly just curious and didn't develop any negative thoughts about Xiao Lianzhu because of the black well.
Xiao Lianzhu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "The so-called underworld is just a metaphor. In fact, this black well suppresses the Demon Soul Clan, which almost wiped out the entire Chaotic Martial World back then!"
"The Demon Soul Clan?"
"Hmm! These guys have special abilities; they can devour people's souls, which is extremely terrifying! As the town mayor, my daily task is to prevent the Demon Soul Clan from breaking free of their seal. Once they break free, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the entire Chaotic Martial World will likely be plunged into disaster."
Xiao Lianzhu tried her best to explain the situation of the so-called underworld in a way that Ling Xiao could understand.
"Can I go down and take a look?"
Ling Xiao really has a lot of guts. Xiao Lianzhu made it sound so serious, but this guy still wanted to go down.
"no!"
Xiao Lianzhu hurriedly shook her head, "Brother Ling, the reason I brought you here is to tell you that you can go to any other place in this underworld town, but you must never go down here!"
Ling Xiao scratched his head. "Okay, I'll listen to you."
He said that, but his eyes never left the dark well.
"That's good, Brother Ling. I need to go down and check on things now. The seal has been getting weaker and weaker lately. I have to check it every day and reinforce and repair it." Xiao Lianzhu looked at Ling Xiao with eyes full of reluctance, but she also knew the responsibility on her shoulders. "When I come back, we'll have a good talk."
"Are you alright? I have a feeling something inside has awakened, it's not very reliable. Why don't I come down with you, so we can keep each other company?"
Ling Xiao couldn't help but say.
Inside the magic needle space, Xia Ming said somewhat speechlessly, "You kid, don't get involved. Your Zhu'er might be too embarrassed to say it, but I won't give you any face. You're only at the early stage of the Upper Lord realm right now. Going down there won't be any help; you'll just become a burden. Just stay put and don't cause any trouble."
At this moment, Xiao Lianzhu smiled and took out a black iron token, handing it to Ling Xiao: "Brother Ling, if you're worried about me, take this. If something happens to me, you'll be able to sense it. Moreover, this token can mobilize all the martial artists in the Underworld Town!"
Holding the iron plaque, Ling Xiao felt a little more at ease.
After all, he had just met Xiao Lianzhu and couldn't accept how they could be separated, especially since she was going to an extremely dangerous place.
"Ok!"
Xiao Lianzhu nodded, then jumped into the black well. A moment later, she was completely still, indicating that the black well had the function of isolating one's aura.
Ling Xiao stood beside the black well for a long time, reluctant to leave.
If it weren't for the iron plaque indicating that Xiao Lianzhu was still safe, he would have actually jumped.
"Oh dear! My little darling, don't even think about going in. You'll only cause trouble for others. Instead of wasting time daydreaming, you should hurry up and cultivate. If your cultivation level were higher, I wouldn't even bother trying to persuade you."
Xia Ming's voice rang directly in Ling Xiao's mind, sounding rather helpless.
Ling Xiao sighed helplessly, glanced at the dark well opening again, and listened to the terrifying sounds coming from inside before turning to leave.
Not long after Ling Xiao left the Black Well, he met Xiao Lianzhu's capable assistants, Black and White Impermanence.
The two were extremely respectful to Ling Xiao, which suggests that Xiao Lianzhu had given prior notice. Moreover, as the town mayor, Xiao Lianzhu enjoys a high reputation here.
"Young Master Ling!"
"Hello, you two!"
Ling Xiao smiled. "I have something I'd like to ask you. Is it convenient?"
"Young Master Ling, feel free to ask. As long as it doesn't involve classified information, we'll tell you everything we know."
Black Impermanence cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, appearing very polite.
Ling Xiao nodded: "Actually, what I want to ask is about Zhu'er. What exactly is her current situation? Is it reincarnation? Or something else? Otherwise, I really can't understand how she, who wasn't even as strong as me before, suddenly became the mayor of a small town, one of the eight strongest people in the Chaotic Martial World?"
Black Impermanence and White Impermanence exchanged a glance, a hint of unease on their faces. Then, Black Impermanence slowly shook his head, his tone respectful:
“Young Master Ling, the town mayor is not a reincarnation; she has always been the same person.”
"Then why did she become the mayor of the underworld town? Why did she take on the mission of suppressing hell?" Ling Xiao asked again, still not quite understanding.
"this."
Black Impermanence looked troubled, his tone tinged with helplessness.
"Young Master Ling, please forgive us. This matter concerns the town mayor's secrets, and only the mayor himself knows the reason behind it. We are merely the mayor's subordinates and dare not ask any further questions or speculate."
Seeing the troubled expressions on their faces, Ling Xiao knew they genuinely didn't know, so he didn't press them further and simply nodded, "I understand, it's alright."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I would like to borrow some cultivation resources to improve my strength. Would you two be willing to do me this favor?"
"Of course!" Bai Wuchang quickly replied with a smile, his tone still respectful. "The town mayor has already instructed that we two must do our utmost to meet all of your needs in the underworld town, and we would never dare to be negligent in the slightest."
As he spoke, he flipped his hand, and a pile of crystal-clear stones instantly appeared on the table, densely packed and covering the entire table.
Those crystals were lustrous and exuded a rich and pure spiritual energy. The spiritual energy was so intense that it almost solidified, making them several times purer than any spiritual crystal Ling Xiao had ever seen before.
Just being near it makes one feel comfortable all over, and even the flow of divine power becomes much smoother.
"Top-grade spirit crystal!"
Xia Ming's voice rang out in his mind, carrying a clear sense of surprise and excitement.
"Good heavens, this is some good stuff! Top-grade spirit crystals are extremely rare in the Chaotic Martial World. These guys are really generous to you!"
Ling Xiao was also somewhat surprised. These were top-grade spirit crystals, the most advanced spirit crystals in the Chaotic Martial Realm. He had only glanced at them casually, and there were over a thousand of them piled up there. If he were to devour and absorb all of these top-grade spirit crystals, it would be difficult for his cultivation level not to increase.
If these top-grade spirit crystals were taken outside, they would likely attract many powerful individuals who would fight over them.
"Gentlemen, isn't this inappropriate? I can't accept something for nothing. If I take so many spirit crystals at once, I'm afraid many people in the town will be unhappy." Ling Xiao didn't want to cause trouble for Xiao Lianzhu, so he planned to refuse.
"Young Master Ling, rest assured, these are the town mayor's private spirit crystals. No one else can interfere. You can use them to cultivate in peace. As your strength improves, you can also help our town mayor more. Otherwise, she is really too tired!"
"Black Impermanence explained."
"Alright, I'll listen to you and start cultivating now!" Ling Xiao still had the idea of entering the Black Well, but he also knew that his strength was not enough and he had to become stronger.
