Chapter 475: Triple Fusion · Life Rebirth

Shui Qingya fell silent as well.

Although she had said this on purpose to point out the role of these people and help them feel at ease, Yun Ye’s wording felt more like he considered them mere substitutes for servants.

Though there was essentially no difference, it still sounded harsh, especially since Shui Qingya would soon find herself in a similar role.

Respect for the strong!

Everyone agreed; disagreeing meant death, and they had no other choice, but no one knew what they truly thought in their hearts.

Shui Mingqin didn’t care. If this Wang Shi couldn’t contact Dongwang, these people had no chance either; they had nowhere to rebel.

"Then, let’s prepare to break the spirit vein nodes and charge out in one go."

"Let’s go see the outside world!"

Yun Ye said with enthusiasm.

Although the outside might not be better than here, they at least needed to rush out and take a look. If they could retrieve the Ming Rihui Sword, their chances of defeating Dongwang would increase.

"Oh~"

The others were not foolish either; they understood how difficult it would be to endure without barriers, without cities, and without the devices created by ordinary beings.

…

There were approximately two hundred and twenty spirit vein nodes, and this plan required the destruction of only seventy to completely dismantle the formation.

So, at least seventy puppets capable of breaking through the black tide were needed. If Shui Mingqin and the others had to handle this, there would be almost no chance.

But if it was Yun Ye, it was not impossible.

"Dongwang has given the sacred department a quota; every few years, one captain of the sacred department must perish and be consumed by the black tide. However, he looks down on the Vice Captain level. Most of the Vice Captains who died over the past hundred years have been collected by the head of the family, and some were even at the captain level."

"You have cultivated Spiritual Law and have reached Completeness in the law realms; that’s why you are strong. The Vice Captains almost all possess Completeness in the law realms, while the captains even have Mystic Realm levels."

"This does not account for their realms; it purely refers to their physical power. If you were to lead them, it would mean combining physical strength with realm power, which would definitely be enough to break through the black tide!"

Shui Mingqin stated.

Yun Ye was astonished. Did Shui Mingqin know he had cultivated the Three Major Techniques?

"Don’t be surprised. As long as someone can see your luck, anyone can understand that you are definitely not an ordinary being…" Shui Mingqin said quietly. "Regardless of what inheritance or bloodline you have, I do not care, as long as you can assist me in escaping."

"Of course, if you want to kill me after our escape, I have nothing to say. Trying to accomplish such an impossible task is a gamble on chances, but if you were to kill me just before success, I would certainly curse you. I would curse you to a bad end, to sink into hell for eternity."

"Haha…"

Yun Ye chuckled awkwardly. "Mother, what benefit would I gain from killing you? I’m not a child. Should I still hold a grudge against you for letting someone kill me when I was young?"

"……"

Shui Mingqin silently watched him, not saying a word.

"Don’t worry. I only plan to wipe out Team Two for power; I have almost gained enough. If you have better suggestions, I will certainly choose the option with a higher success rate. If I can truly succeed, why would I do something to jeopardize that?"

Yun Ye had to explain himself thoroughly to Shui Mingqin.

He had no feelings for Shui Mingqin. If he truly wanted to take her life, it would be just a brief moment’s work. However, he wouldn’t do that to the puppet Yun Ye standing in front of him.

He could wipe out everything in his way, but for those willing to cooperate, it was better to consider them as having repented and put them to good use. If problems arose later, then eliminating them would not be questioned.

"Then, let’s sign a contract!"

"Shui Riyue!"

Shui Mingqin called her name.

Shui Riyue abruptly awakened from her thoughts and asked, "What happened?"

"Use your Yin and Yang Spiritual Law to establish a contract with Shui Changdong."

Shui Mingqin then lightly said to Yun Ye, "The binding power of Yin and Yang Spiritual Law far exceeds that of Spirit Law. If you are willing to sign the contract, I will take you to the puppet treasury; otherwise, I will destroy it."

"Yin and Yang Spiritual Law? You’re actually prepared to go this far?" Yun Ye was taken aback. He soon realized that the Yin and Yang Spiritual Law involved both physical and mental restraints. Defying such a contract was not as simple as with Spirit Law, especially since this was the Extreme Spiritual Law’s version of it!

"Just a coincidence," Shui Mingqin said.

Yun Ye did not say anything further. He reached out his hand to Shui Riyue. After a brief moment of hesitation, she placed her palm against his, and their Spirit Law powers merged immediately.

After a moment, Shui Riyue withdrew her hand, looking at Yun Ye in surprise. She then turned to everyone and said, "Besides ensuring that we won’t go back on our word, Changdong requires us to follow the rules he established… Of course, these rules will not harm us; rather, they are designed to protect us weaker opponents."

She communicated the content of the contract to everyone.

The members of the Holy Lineage all changed their expressions, looking displeased. Meanwhile, those from the Four Departments exchanged incredulous glances, unable to believe these were the new king’s terms.

Did this mean he didn’t intend to become a "king"?

Everyone looked to Shui Mingqin with astonished expressions.

"Let’s make the contract!"

Shui Mingqin frowned slightly, but soon relaxed. Complying with these rules was just a bit troublesome; she still had the ability to rise above others.

This was an undeniable fact determined by bloodline and power!

But in that instant, she understood where Shui Changdong’s inheritance came from. No one besides Tomorrow Nation would like these rules.

"Okay!"

Shui Riyue closed her eyes and gathered her power. The forces of black and white began to spread and eventually condensed into a contract on a white piece of paper filled with dense text detailing the agreed-upon rules.

She first signed her true name on it, and as her name glowed, a mysterious power connected her to Shui Riyue, indicating that she had been recognized by the contract.

One by one, everyone signed the contract, and finally, Yun Ye added his name. After he finished, the paper suddenly ignited and vanished into the air. Everyone felt a clear sense of restraint enveloping them.

Both their souls and bodies were bound; whoever violated the contract would face self-destruction from within.

"Excellent, follow me."

Yun Ye, together with Shui Mingqin, arrived at the underground of the family head’s mansion. There, well-preserved human puppets were stored, just as Shui Mingqin had said, each possessing physical bodies at Completeness in the law realms or above, with three even at the Mystic Realm level.

"You possess the yin-yang five elements and have the inheritance of Tomorrow Nation, so you should be capable of controlling these puppets, right?" Shui Mingqin spoke.

"Of course…"

At this point, Yun Ye was not surprised that Shui Mingqin knew about Tomorrow Nation. A rainbow ring appeared in his hand, and as his great law rotated, the three types of Spiritual Law were extracted and merged, forming a brand new power.

Wood Yang!

Earth Yang!

Water Yang!

"Triple Fusion · Life Rebirth!"

Pure green energy poured into a total of ninety-three corpses present. Green patterns began to spread from the points of injection, forming a complex design. Gradually, the color and aura of these corpses returned to life, and in the end, their eyes slowly opened.

"I… I feel like I have come back to life?"

The three captains at the forefront murmured in confusion, as if they held memories and consciousness from the past.
