Chapter 656 The World's Power? This Old Man Already Has It!
The Demon King had been killed by Lin Qiye's attack before he could display his full power. Now, it could only be described as a fluke.
The clash between the two caused the space within ten thousand miles to shake.
Lin Qiye knew he couldn't interfere, so he had to get out of the Heavenly Star Daoist's perception range as soon as possible so that the battle-robed man could escape.
Fifteen minutes later, Lin Qiye could feel that the spatial seal around him had weakened. He was about to use Instant Arrival when he suddenly sensed a familiar aura rapidly approaching him.
"Wan Meng?"
Lin Qiye was surprised and pleased. He hurriedly went to meet Wan Meng.
"Master!"
Wan Meng was overjoyed when she saw Lin Qiye approaching. She buried her head in Lin Qiye's arms and heaved a sigh of relief.
"Master, you scared me to death. Your aura has been fluctuating. What's going on?"
"Now is not the time to talk. Let's leave this place first."
Lin Qiye didn't explain. Instead, he hugged Wan Meng and quickly fled into the distance.
After breaking free from the constraints of the spatial shackles, Lin Qiye could cross a distance of several dozen kilometers with each movement.
After reaching 10,000 miles, he was free, and his teleportation was no longer restricted.
To ensure that he was out of the Heavenly Star Daoist's detection range, he teleported continuously until tens of thousands of miles away and arrived at a deserted mountain forest. Only then did he let out a breath of relief.
"What's going on, Master? I can sense a few auras that aren't weaker than yours. Moreover, there seem to be fluctuations in the Jieyin Token."
Seeing Lin Qiye had recovered, Wan Meng couldn't help but ask.
Lin Qiye turned to look at Wan Meng.
"Your perception is quite sharp. You can even find the Jieyin Token that has merged into the space?"
"Of course. The Jieyin Token was considered a treasure a hundred thousand years ago. The only person who still has it is the Heavenly Star Daoist. Oh, that's not right. He previously gave it to Hall Master Qi, so Hall Master Qi should be the only one who has it now."
Wan Meng recalled the small movements Hall Master Qi had made when Lin Qiye was breaking through, and her expression changed.
"Could it be that Hall Master Qi has summoned that old geezer?"
The Jieyin Token could cross space and instantly arrive at its destination.
Combining the aura she had sensed earlier, Wan Meng immediately linked it to the Heavenly Star Daoist.
"Hall Master Qi?"
When Lin Qiye heard Wan Meng mention the man who had betrayed the human race and joined the demons, he seemed to understand why the Heavenly Star Daoist had appeared precisely on the battlefield.
The Jieyin Token was supposed to be in Hall Master Qi's hands, but Hall Master Qi's body and spirit had been destroyed when he released his power.
It was obvious he had given the token to the Demon King when he had sought refuge with them.
After the Demon King died, perhaps through the world's power nurtured in his body, the Heavenly Star Daoist sensed his state. In addition, the Demon King still had the Jieyin Token, so he directly mobilized the remaining energy and transported himself over.
"What the f*ck, did that guy get lucky? How did he bump into this chance?"
Lin Qiye couldn't help but curse after figuring out the Heavenly Star Daoist's background.
"What's wrong, Master?" Seeing Lin Qiye's expression change, Wan Meng asked in confusion.
"No, nothing."
Lin Qiye shook his head and stopped thinking about those depressing things.
"You still haven't told me what's going on."
Lin Qiye couldn't resist Wan Meng's curiosity, so he explained everything to her.
From the moment he left Tata Village and was surrounded by demons to releasing his power to kill the Demon King and then retreating after losing to the Heavenly Star Daoist, everything was explained in detail.
"That's what happened."
Lin Qiye couldn't help but feel apprehensive when he recalled how the Heavenly Star Daoist had taken his and the battle-robed man's weapons with his bare hands.
"Wow!, Master, you're amazing! When that demon descended on Tata Village, I thought we were done for!"
"You've just broken through to the Celestial Realm, and you're already able to kill him. Even the top geniuses of ancient times couldn't do this!"
Wan Meng's blood was boiling as she listened as if she was also involved in the battle to exterminate the demons.
However, her excitement was short-lived. She quickly regained her senses and lowered her voice.
"However, that old geezer is really annoying. I didn't expect him to have hidden so deeply all these years. Even the Demon King is a human cauldron for him to cultivate his power."
Lin Qiye's face darkened at the mention of the Heavenly Star Daoist.
"Yeah, the world's power he controls is definitely not weaker than mine.
"I've lost too much energy this time. I'm afraid I won't be able to recover for a long time. Before that senior can find me, I can't let the old geezer find me first."
For the time being, Lin Qiye was out of danger. However, judging from the power the Heavenly Star Daoist displayed, he could flip the heavens with his hand.
Even if he could hide for a while, he couldn't hide forever.
"According to your words, you should have an extraordinary background in the main world. Since that expert was ordered to come and take you back, he isn't an ordinary character. Even if he can't defeat that old geezer, he can definitely escape!"
Wan Meng was a part of a divine weapon belonging to a Supreme expert from ancient times. She knew how terrifying the foundations of some powerful forces were.
In the same realm, the cultivators' strength from big forces was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.
The reason was that they had a wealth of trump cards.
Lin Qiye had also thought of this. When the man in the battle robe urged him to leave, he felt at ease and left.
"Don't worry, Master. Leave the matter of hiding to me. As long as I'm here, no one will be able to find you!"
Wan Meng patted her chest and promised.
Lin Qiye laughed bitterly. "That's what I'm afraid of."
As a part of a divine weapon, Wan Meng's abilities were obvious. Lin Qiye naturally didn't doubt it.
However, if the Heavenly Star Daoist couldn't find him, the battle-robed man couldn't find him either.
Lin Qiye wouldn't recover his cultivation in a short time. If he spent another ten or twenty years to cultivate, the battle-robed man would be worried to death.
"Uh..."
Wan Meng also thought of how important this matter was and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It seemed that every time she made a promise to Lin Qiye, something unexpected would happen.
"Let's take it one step at a time."
Lin Qiye shrugged. Just as he was about to take a break, he suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, right! Senior gave me the coordinates before. I can go there and wait for him!"
He smacked his forehead in excitement.
"Phew! Good. Since you've already agreed on a place to meet, I'll hide your aura."
Wan Meng also let out a sigh of relief.
She appeared in front of Lin Qiye. The metallic red spider lily gradually peeled off and spread out. Each petal was attached to a different part of Lin Qiye's body and slowly melted into a thin, almost transparent film.
Lin Qiye's aura had disappeared under the thin film. Even though one could see him with their naked eyes, they could not sense him at all.
"Master, as long as one doesn't investigate you in person, even a Supreme won't be able to recognize you!"
Just as Wan Meng had said, with her concealment technique, as long as Lin Qiye was not locked on and examined carefully, he had zero possibility of being exposed.
Lin Qiye nodded.
"Good, but there are some things I have to deal with before I leave."
After leaving this time, he would most likely never return to this world.
There was a mess left at Tata Village, and he had to make it clear before he left.
After all, Lonemoon, Butcher, and the others had followed him for so long and had been assisting him with all their heart and soul. Before he left, he had to think about their future.
Wan Meng knew Lin Qiye was worried about his men, so she had to do her best to hide his aura to prevent any risk of exposure.
Just like that, the two arrived at a city on the western border of Country Xu. After teleporting to the city closest to Tata Village, they quickly sped toward the village.
