Chapter 1870
by 林方方Chapter 1870 Mother-Son Bond
Above Antarctica.
Several figures emerged from the glacier one after another. As they departed, the moon’s reflection that had been floating on the water’s surface disappeared without a trace.
“What are your plans now?” Nyx looked at Lin Qiye beside her and asked.
Lin Qiye glanced at the shivering Gubirah, “Since we’re already out, there’s no rush to go back… let’s eliminate the tumor that is [Divine Desire Paradise] on our way.”
With Lin Qiye’s current strength, he alone could slaughter his way through [Divine Desire Paradise]. If he could eliminate this hidden danger on the way back to Great Xia, it would certainly be a good thing.
“Alright, we’ll accompany you,” Nyx said without hesitation.
Having finally reunited with Lin Qiye, Nyx naturally wouldn’t leave him now. Even though she knew that with Lin Qiye’s current strength, few could pose a threat to him… but what if something happened?
The death of her youngest daughter Philotes was still fresh in her mind. Now she didn’t want to be separated from Lin Qiye.
“What about you?” Lin Qiye turned to look at Lina.
After a moment’s hesitation, Lina said:
“To destroy [Divine Desire Paradise], you all are enough. I want to return to [Hidden God]…”
“That’s fine. After you go back, you can keep an eye on them too,” Lin Qiye nodded. “If you encounter any trouble you can’t resolve, come find me in Great Xia. If I’m not there, then find…”
“Find Great Xia’s Sword Immortal Zhou Ping,” Lina finished his sentence. “Don’t worry, I understand.”
After saying goodbye to Lin Qiye and the others, Lina patted the head of the magic wolf Fenrir beneath her. With a wolf’s howl, her figure quickly disappeared into the distance.
Watching Lina leave, Lin Qiye seemed to remember something. His palm grasped at the void, and a torch appeared in his hand.
“By the way, Mother, this should be given to you.”
The moment the torch appeared, Nyx and the other two were stunned, then shock appeared in their eyes!
“The Olympian Source??” Athena looked at Lin Qiye in astonishment. “How did you get this? Zeus would give this to you?”
“Of course they wouldn’t give it to me,” Lin Qiye smiled.
“But after I killed them all, I naturally obtained it…”
“You destroyed Olympus?!” Artemis and Athena exchanged glances, both seemingly finding it hard to believe.
After being ambushed by Zeus years ago, they came to Antarctica to recover, accidentally entering the time labyrinth… They had no idea what had happened in the outside world since then. Nyx had even been planning to lead Athena and Artemis back to Olympus for revenge as soon as Lin Qiye’s matters were settled!
But now, Lin Qiye was holding the Olympian Source, telling them Olympus had fallen?
“It’s a long story… but Olympus is indeed gone. Zeus, Kronos, Poseidon, and all the other major gods are dead,” Lin Qiye looked into Nyx’s eyes and said seriously,
“I didn’t destroy the Olympian Source because I was worried it might affect you. Since you are now the only remaining deities of Olympus, it’s best for you to keep it.”
Nyx stared at Lin Qiye for a long time, her expression complex.
Did she have feelings for Olympus?
Perhaps she once did… but after Zeus and the other gods hunted down her children, she was left with nothing but endless hatred for Olympus. From the moment she left the hospital, she had planned to destroy Olympus to avenge her dead children, but in the end, she fell half a step short and couldn’t fulfill her wish.
Unexpectedly, it was Lin Qiye who finally settled this grudge for her…
The revenge for her children was ultimately carried out by another of her children. Perhaps there truly was such a thing as fate…
“Thank you…” After a long silence, Nyx still uttered these two words.
Nyx couldn’t remember how many times she had thanked Lin Qiye. It seemed that from the moment they met at the Divine Mental Hospital, her fate had been closely tied to his… Lin Qiye helped her recover, helped her move past those painful memories, and brought warmth and a sense of family back to her. Though they shared no blood ties, their emotional bond was no less than that of a real mother and son.
They were brought together by the hospital, but their connection extended far beyond that.
“Between mother and son, there’s no need for thanks,” Lin Qiye said with a smile as he handed the Olympian Source to Nyx.
Nyx composed herself and, thinking of the hospital, couldn’t help but ask, “By the way, what about Merlin? How is he?”
“Uncle Merlin…”
Lin Qiye sighed, “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“After he left the hospital, he went away… said he wanted to explore the essence of this world. But in all these years, there’s been no news of him. I don’t know if he found the answers he was looking for.”
“Hmph, I knew it. That guy is completely unreliable,” Nyx snorted coldly. “What about the others?”
“Bragi is in his own world, he found Iðunn, and now I don’t know where they are… Monkey King followed the Heavenly Court into the depths of the universe. Gilgamesh… oh, Gilgamesh was the patient in the fifth room. Though his temper was bad, he was actually quite decent.
After we joined forces to destroy Asgard, he said he wanted to find his lost kingdom of Uruk. I don’t know where he is now either.
The sixth patient is still in the ward, though not so well-behaved…”
Lin Qiye explained everyone’s situation, and Nyx’s face turned slightly blue. She wanted to say these people were all unreliable, but then remembered that she herself had been trapped in the remnants of the Gate of Truth for so many years, so she didn’t dare speak out, only coldly snorting to herself.
“Anyway, a lot has happened in the years you’ve been gone…” Lin Qiye reflected, feeling somewhat emotional. “If you want to hear about it, we can talk as we go.”
“Good.”
The group transformed into streaks of light and flew into the clouds, heading directly toward [Divine Desire Paradise] under Gubirah’s guidance.
…
Mirror Strait.
On a simple bed, An Qingyu slowly opened his eyes…
He stared at the familiar ceiling for a moment, then sat up on the edge of the bed, rubbing his temples.
After a deep sleep, the excruciating pain from his soul being torn apart had eased considerably. At least he no longer felt like he might faint at any moment. However, it seemed the cost of this soul transfer method was still too great…
An Qingyu glanced at the door, which remained as he had left it, with no signs of having been opened.
“He didn’t take advantage of the situation…”
He murmured, not surprised. He got up and pushed the door open.
There was no sign of Lin Qiye in the fiery courtyard; he must have gone to his room to rest. An Qingyu’s gaze swept across the surroundings, stopping at the black and white chessboard under the tree.
