Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 149 Trials and Tribulations - I Am the Protagonist

"What should we do now? If we let the star chart continue to collapse like this, Yu Liu will definitely die!!!" Yue Sheng's voice was so anxious that it was almost crying, but she had no time to care about that. She knew exactly where Ying Qing was. Although she was asking Ying Qing, she was asking the Jade Emperor more.

The Jade Emperor frowned and paced anxiously, but he was still clueless and had no idea how to deal with the situation.

"His Majesty?"

Ying Qing asked in a low voice.

The Jade Emperor's expression was solemn. He stared at Ying Qing for a while, then shook his head: "Yu Liu is the only wishing platform that has developed sentience. No one knows what has happened to her. We cannot act rashly, otherwise we will do something bad with good intentions, and that will be troublesome!"

The Jade Emperor's intention was to observe the situation first.

Ying Qingxin's heart sank, but she knew that the Jade Emperor was right. She quickly comforted Yue Sheng on the other side and told her to keep an eye on the condition of the Jade Willow.

After cutting off his communication with Ying Qing, Yue Sheng looked with concern at Taishang Laojun, who was standing to the side, quietly watching the image projected from the Reincarnation Well.

"Laojun, the Jade Emperor also wants to wait and see. Do we really have no other choice?" A trace of guilt flashed in Yuesheng's eyes: "Yuliu, will everything be alright?"

Laozi smiled kindly: "Don't worry, everything will be alright. You should know that the Jade Willow is no ordinary object; it's not something that can be harmed so easily."

The Supreme Lord Laozi's gaze fell to the side, where a small amount of five-colored light was spewing from the Reincarnation Well. The wishing platform, bathed in the light, looked incredibly sacred. In the center of the platform, surrounded by eight pillars, was a star map. This star map appeared after Yu Liu's cultivation gradually deepened. To the naked eye, this star map was boundless. In the middle of the mysterious star points that were originally quietly rotating, several black cracks appeared, and silver light flashed from time to time.

Judging from the situation, Xiao Yuliu is not only unharmed, but will actually benefit from the misfortune. However, the Jade Emperor, who is manipulating all of this, is going to have a hard time. Oh dear, I am just an old man and shouldn't know about such things, so I'd better not remind that kid Jade Emperor.

Laozi thought to himself with a smug look, a deep-seated smile flashing in his eyes, but he remained expressionless on his face. Yue Sheng, immersed in guilt, did not notice.

"Alright, don't overthink it!" Laozi raised his hand and gently patted Yuesheng's shoulder: "It was the Jade Emperor who sent Yuliu to that world, it has nothing to do with you. You were just following orders. It's not good to feel too guilty."

"I understand," Yue Sheng replied perfunctorily, seemingly not having listened at all. Taishang Laojun didn't press the matter, smiled faintly, and continued to monitor Yu Liu's situation.

"Baby!" Gu Liangzong felt heartbroken seeing Yu Liu's appearance and quickly flew up, reaching out to touch her.

"Bam—"

A golden light shone from Yu Liu's body, forming an oval shape that enveloped her entire body. When Gu Liangzong's hand touched this golden oval, he felt a powerful recoil force, and his entire arm went numb under the force.

However, the familiar power flowing over the golden oval gave Gu Liangzong a clue.

"Not this one……"

"...My demonic power!!!"

The Jade Emperor exclaimed in disbelief, "That's my demonic power! How could it appear in Little Jade Willow's body?!"

Gu Liangzong looked up at Yu Liu, who was clearly still in pain, and understood what had happened to her. He smiled helplessly and muttered, "Your Majesty, you seem to have been a little... hasty!"

"…╯︵┻━┻Holy crap!" The Jade Emperor was so enraged he completely lost it: "Whom did I rush things for?! Not only is he ungrateful, but he also speaks ill of me like that!! Has he no shame?!"

Unfortunately, no matter how violently the Jade Emperor went, Gu Liangzong, who was far away in another world, could not sense it. He sighed helplessly and slowly closed his eyes.

"What...what's going on?" The other person who was still relatively conscious at the scene was still confused. Junran looked at the three dragon brothers who were still in pain, and then at Yu Liu who was floating in the air with a pained expression, and Gu Liangzong who was standing quietly with his eyes closed. He didn't know what to do.

It seems...it looks like...there's nothing to do...

After a few breaths, Gu Liangzong's body lost all vital signs. A red figure floated out of this body and slowly pounced on Yu Liu, who was floating quietly in the air. This time, he was not hindered and passed through the golden barrier safely, holding Yu Liu in his arms.

"Soul, soul body?" Jun Ran's eyes widened. He cautiously took two steps forward. Seeing that the other five people hadn't noticed him, he slowly extended a finger and poked Gu Liangzong's still-standing body.

"Bam—"

This tiny bit of force disrupted the balance, and the soulless body crashed to the ground.

"Wow—he just committed suicide! That's ruthless!"

In the air, after Yan Ning embraced Yu Liu, Yu Liu's soul body visibly relaxed, and her condition seemed to have improved considerably. However, Yan Ning's own figure gradually faded, as the energy in his soul body was gradually flowing into Yu Liu's soul body, relieving her pain.

"It's rare that I remember everything this time." Yan Ning smiled bitterly. "I was originally planning to take you away from this shadow world and have a good time with you, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I guess we'll have to meet again in the next world."

As soon as he finished speaking, his voice became completely transparent, instantly darting into Yu Liu's soul and disappearing.

However, Yan Ning's disappearance did not mean the end of the matter. Yu Liu still floated quietly in the air, only her expression no longer showed pain.

"This guy..." Junran smacked his lips, unsure how to comment. Giving up all the energy of his soul to save someone was an incredibly foolish act, but he felt inexplicably moved.

"Huh?" Junran suddenly noticed something. "That seems to be... a tentacle?"

Yu Liu floated quietly for a while, and suddenly a small tentacle quietly emerged from the golden barrier formed by the Jade Emperor's demonic power, and began to rise stealthily.

"what's the situation?"

Junran asked himself, since he was the only conscious person left here, he felt lonely if he didn't say a few words to himself.

Just as the tentacle was stretching upwards, a golden streak extended from the distant horizon.

"Hiss—why does that golden light that drifted by look a little familiar?"

The Jade Emperor stroked his chin, looking at the golden light extending from the horizon reflected in the illusion mirror, his tone slightly uneasy.

"It's not just that it looks familiar, Your Majesty!" Ying Qing stared blankly, still looking up. "Look up, Your Majesty!!!"

"Look up?" The Jade Emperor, a beat slow to react, looked up. In the dim space, there was a band of light stretching into the distance, one end connecting to an unknown place, the other end connecting to—his own body…

"...!!!∑ノMy demonic power!!!!"
