Chapter 1510 An Qingyu Awakens
“The flame of life… is actually black?”
Chen Han gripped the straight knife, staring at the black flame dancing above the monster’s head, his brows tightly furrowed, “What exactly is this thing…”
“It’s a Ke-system creature.” Lin Qiye’s figure emerged in the night, speaking calmly.
“Ke-system?” Chen Han asked in confusion, “But this is Beijing, how could there be a Ke-system creature here?”
“I’m not sure either… let’s capture it first.”
Lin Qiye raised his palm and made a grasping motion in the air toward the monster flying in midair. The surrounding darkness seemed to come alive, continuously compressing around it. Strands of pitch-black chains wrapped around its shell, attempting to lock down its form.
The monster seemed to sense the danger. The tentacles growing on the fleshy tumor of its head writhed frantically, and the membrane-like wing organs began to vibrate at a frequency invisible to the naked eye. With a sound like metal striking metal, its form eerily passed directly through the dark restraints, appearing dozens of meters away.
Chen Han was slightly stunned, then spoke in surprise, “It can even manipulate space?”
“It’s not that it can manipulate space…” Lin Qiye’s eyes were fixed on the constantly disturbed space-time around the monster, “It is a creature from the space-time rift itself.”
This space-time distortion was all too familiar to Lin Qiye. Not long ago, he and other Daxia Gods were sent directly to the other side of the space-time wall by a similar space-time fluctuation. Although this monster’s space-time disturbance ability was pitifully small, it was indeed very similar to the fragments of [The Key of the Door].
“I was wondering why its aura kept disappearing and reappearing. So it was escaping into the space-time rift.” Lin Qiye said coldly.
“It’s trying to escape.”
Chen Han watched as the monster gradually faded into space-time, his eyes narrowing slightly. Just as he was about to charge forward with his knife, a shadow had already flashed above the creature!
“It can’t escape.” Lin Qiye said calmly as the Amanomurakumo sword appeared in his hand, its blade precisely slashing toward the monster’s head.
A cold flash streaked across the night sky!
As Lin Qiye’s form landed on the ground, the football-shaped fleshy tumor head fell off and rolled to the side.
The headless monster was forcibly squeezed out of the space-time gap. It swayed unsteadily in the air for a moment, but surprisingly didn’t die. Instead, it vibrated its membrane wings and flew rapidly toward the city below the night sky!
“It’s still not dead?” Seeing the monster flying around like a headless fly, Lin Qiye immediately raised his hand and pointed in the direction it was fleeing.
Darkness formed a cage, instantly imprisoning the monster’s form in the air beside a high-rise building’s glass wall. Having lost its head, the monster seemed to have lost its ability to disturb space-time. It could only continuously crash against the edges of the cage, trying to escape.
At the same time, Chen Han whistled and leaped from the top of the high-rise!
A battle horse burning with pale green flames suddenly rushed out from behind, steadily catching Chen Han’s form, galloping along the vertical side of the high-rise building rapidly toward the dark cage.
With his military coat fluttering in the night sky, Chen Han jumped from the back of the battle horse. His straight knife was coated with a layer of netherworld power, flashing in an arc toward the black flame burning on top of the monster’s head!
In an instant, several blade flashes appeared simultaneously. The reaper-like sharp edge cut through the monster’s flame of life. The monster, which had been constantly crashing and struggling in the dark cage, suddenly froze and completely lost its vitality.
Whoosh!
A netherworld fire ignited in Chen Han’s white glove, instantly burning the monster’s body to ashes. Now, no matter how tenacious its life force, there was absolutely no possibility of survival.
Lin Qiye stepped on darkness and slowly approached, looking down at the monster’s remains vanishing into nothingness. His expression relaxed a bit:
“Fortunately, there weren’t any casualties.”
“Indeed.” Chen Han sighed, “However, I’ll be busy when I get back. A Ke-system creature suddenly appearing in Beijing means I’ll be writing reports all night… I hope headquarters can identify what this thing actually is.”
“Anything involving the Ke-system is always tricky. Being cautious is never wrong.”
Lin Qiye pointed downward, where several police cars had already arrived at the office building. The people who had fainted in the first-floor corridor had awakened and were frantically describing something to the police, their expressions filled with terror. A large crowd began to gather around. “I’ll leave the aftermath to you. I need to go.”
“Alright, I’ll notify you immediately when headquarters responds,” Chen Han nodded.
Lin Qiye’s form flickered, and that deep red silhouette disappeared into the night.
…
The appearance of a Ke-system creature, although somewhat concerning to Lin Qiye, was not a major problem since the monster’s strength was only at the level of an ordinary “Klein.” It wasn’t too much trouble for either him or Chen Han. Since the crisis had been resolved, it could only be considered a minor incident.
Lin Qiye’s form crossed the night sky, and just as he was about to return to his temporary residence, he seemed to think of something and slowed down.
He looked down at the time and made a quick calculation…
Hmm, Cao Yuan should have finished washing the dishes by now.
After confirming that he wouldn’t have to continue washing dishes when he got home, Lin Qiye directly pushed open the door of his residence. At that moment, a figure suddenly rushed in front of him!
Lin Qiye looked at the rushing Cao Yuan, his expression froze, and he instinctively stepped back.
“What are you doing?”
“Qiye! Qingyu is awake!!!”
Seeing Cao Yuan’s excited expression, Lin Qiye was stunned at first, then his face lit up with joy as he rushed into the room.
On the bed, An Qingyu was sitting up, leaning against the pillow. Jiang Er stood by the bed, her expression somewhat dazed. Seeing Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan rush in from outside, she didn’t show much joy, but rather an indescribable sadness.
At this moment, Lin Qiye’s attention was entirely on An Qingyu, and he didn’t notice Jiang Er’s unusual expression.
“Qingyu?!” Lin Qiye saw that An Qingyu had indeed awakened, and his lips involuntarily curved upward.
An Qingyu’s face was somewhat pale, as if he had been through a serious illness. Seeing Lin Qiye rush in from outside, he smiled weakly, “Qiye… is the trouble resolved?”
“Just a minor issue, it was handled quickly.”
Lin Qiye’s spiritual power swept over An Qingyu’s body. After confirming that all bodily functions were still normal, he sighed slightly in relief, stepped to the bedside, and asked softly:
“How do you feel?”
“I feel… like I had a very long dream.”
“What kind of dream?”
“…I can’t really describe it, but that feeling… it was like becoming a weightless ghost, floating in the sky… very strange.”
“You’ve been unconscious for so long, having strange dreams is normal.” Lin Qiye nodded slightly, “Is your body alright?”
Hearing this question, An Qingyu fell silent.
After a moment, he slowly opened his cracked lips, forcing a pale smile:
“Qiye… I think I can’t feel my legs anymore.”
