The Legend Of Beishang
216. The Soul Eating Devil II
After a slow journey, the troops finally returned to the Palace after a 4-hour journey.
They were immediately greeted with enthusiasm, a pity that it was still raining heavily and had no sign of abating.
Bei Zhao and Lin Beishang were convinced that it was certain that some parts of the Capital City were affected by the flood.
It has been more than 4 hours of rain graced the Capital City, so you can imagine how high the stagnant water is.
The river would not be able to accommodate all of this, Lin Beishang descended from the horse along with Bei Zhao.
"All of you hurry back to the barracks and take shelter from the rain, change your clothes and I'll ask the waiter to send some warmers and some spices. Don't get sick. " Said Lin Beishang to his troops.
"Yes, Gongzhu. Gongzhu and Tuan must maintain good health as well !" Said the guards before finally walking towards the Barracks.
Lin Yue and Ye Xushi approached her under the protection of an umbrella.
"Are you two okay ?" Lin Yue asked frantically and turned back her sister's body.
"I'm very good but it won't be good anymore if you don't let me in. " Speak Lin Beishang while laughing lightly.
"Of course ! Come on in ! Don't leave you in the rain any longer !" Said Lin Yue while dragging Lin Beishang's hand.
Arriving inside, the servants carried buckets and squeezed the bottom of Bei Zhao's clothes and clothes so that the Imperial Hall would not be wet by the rainwater.
Lin Beishang took off his fully wet shoes and armor clothes, then stood up casually while waiting for his clothes to be squeezed out.
"What about this war ?" Asked Lin Yue in confusion.
"Very good. "Chap Lin Beishang calmly.
"It's good if it's very good, I won't ask you much. But, I will ask about this lightning, have you noticed about what is happening at this moment ?" Asked Lin Yue seriously.
Lin Beishang looked into Lin Yue's eyes then smiled faintly, thought for a moment then replied.
"I certainly know. " Say Lin Beishang softly.
Lin Beishang would not say that he had just found out about the Soul Eating Demon for entering the Palace Library along with his late father, Lin Xi.
"Bei Zhao also knows, we already know this. But, there's nothing to do. Perhaps, what the father said was true, there was no other way but to ask for help from the Phoenix Soul. " Say Lin Beishang softly and looked calm.
"Are you sure ? The Phoenix soul had been asleep for nearly a thousand years. Is his strength still the same as before ?" Asked Lin Yue worriedly.
"Then ? What about the Soul-Eating Devil who had been sealed in the Eternal Gorge for 999 years ? Is his strength still the same as when he made a mess a thousand years ago ?"Lin Beishang asked very calmly.
Lin Yue bowed for a moment and thought about the words given by Lin Beishang and found that what her sister said was not wrong.
If the strength of the Phoenix Soul could weaken, let alone a Soul Eating Demon that had been suppressed by an extremely powerful seal for 999 years ?
But, there is nothing wrong with being more alert. The power of the Soul Eating Devil could be restored by letting the Soul Eating Demon swallow the soul that left.
"If a Soul Eating Devil can become powerful by eating the souls of the dead, then the Phoenix Soul, what must be done to restore its power ?" Asked Lin Yue nervously.
"Don't know, maybe in the same way ?" Lin Beishang asked as he shrugged both of his shoulders and looked very relaxed.
Lin Beishang guessed that the information about the Phoenix Soul was only passed down from generation to generation by using only the spoken word for each Emperor so as not to fear that it would be spread.
It's hard to figure this out, after all, leaving only the cemetery in the backyard.
There would be nothing more to ask them, no matter how great their efforts were. The only way is to ask the living and still conscious.
That was the Phoenix Soul itself, but really, Lin Beishang really did not want to do this if it was not really forced.
If heard from the story given by his late father, then the Phoenix Soul should be as greedy as a Soul Eating Devil.
What distinguishes them is where do they stand ? Which side are they on ? The one who holds the truth will be regarded as a good soul.
In fact, if examined carefully and examined carefully and impartially, then in fact they are the same.
They will only move after there is a payment that attracts their views, otherwise do not expect.
Whether it will save man or protect man from evil, everything is in vain if without pay, that is the Phoenix Soul.
After it was finished squeezing and it even ate 2 buckets full of clothes, Lin Beishang was taken to the side room to change clothes.
Bei Zhao also changed clothes, after replacing them with new warm and dry clothes, then they entered the Hall and felt relieved.
The ministers were given a bed in the residence of the Crown Princess that Lin Yue had once lived in before, within the vast and majestic Imperial Hall.
Still with shades of red that seem to bring happiness but the four people in it looked very somber, very incompatible with the colors that adorn the place.
"How should we do this ?" Ask Lin Beishang.
"Honestly, I don't know. There's a message from your people for Ye Xushi, we haven't opened it yet. " Say Lin Yue and give the paper scroll that is still in the seal.
Lin Beishang opened the seal and read the message seriously before finally burning it on top of the lit candle.
"This is from Chu Linfei, Qin Dynasty. It was not him who awakened the Soul Eating Devil when judging from this news delivered, then your guess could only point to Chu Huli who had escaped from the Qin Dynasty Prison. " Said Lin Beishang.
"This Chu Huli is so daring to awaken the Soul-Eating Devil, is it not afraid that she will become a Soul-Eating Devil's meal ?" Lin Yue complained in annoyance.
"If judging from his current condition then he should not be afraid, he would ask for the pure blood of a Soul-Eating Devil and become the Master of a Soul-Eating Devil. Not only will he not eat it, but he will always obey his commands. " Said Lin Beishang.
"It's strange, how to unseal the seal that the ancestors have painstakingly made ?" Asked Lin Yue puzzledly and seemed to think hard.
Lin Beishang himself also doubted this matter then had some conjecture but did not dare to say it because this had no proof.
"In our Qiao Yao Pavilion, it was explained that it could be unleashed with some Demon Weapons. The exact number, I myself do not know but if I look then it is likely that it will require more than 3 Demon Weapons. " Said Bei Zhao.
Silence filled the four of them, to make 1 Demon Weapon alone required so many sacrifices, what about 3 or 5 ?
