Fall: Rebirth

Soon after arriving in Youdu, Chu Heng and Xier regretted their decision. The place was filled with a suffocating smell of death, and from time to time there were bursts of wailing ghosts, which were sometimes sad and mournful, and sometimes thrilling, causing them to tremble all over.

Especially Hill, who has always been timid, frowned at this moment, closed his eyes tightly, and dared not open them easily. He grabbed the corner of Chu Heng's clothes tightly with both hands and refused to let go.

On the other hand, although Ling Han was equally terrified, he still tried to remain calm and conceal his fear, even swallowing his saliva uncontrollably. He knew very well that he would be able to see his master soon, so he had to grit his teeth and persevere no matter what.

Although it was not the first time for Ziying to set foot in this place, she still felt a deep sense of fear in her heart. However, in front of her apprentice, she forced herself to remain calm and did not dare to show any fear. She could only grit her teeth and continue to move forward.

Qingli keenly noticed Ziying's abnormality and couldn't help but smile slightly.

At this moment, Ziyu came quickly from the front and bowed to Qingli and Ziying: "God!"

Qingli raised the corner of his mouth and asked softly, "When will your God Lord be able to return to the God Realm?"

Zi Yu looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Qingli raised his hand and said, "Forget it, I will go and take a look myself."

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ziyu quickly said, "Then Ziyu will go and inform them."

Ziying wanted to dispel the chill in her heart at the moment, and wanted to get in as soon as possible. She had no time to wait for Ziyu to pass on the message. So, she spoke before Qingli did, "No need." After that, she walked straight forward.

Ye You was sitting at the table at this moment, carefully flipping through the pile of lists, while Wang Chuan was standing beside her, checking them together.

Ye You sighed softly, her orchid-like breath was almost imperceptible. She raised her jade hand and took off her mask. She closed her eyes tightly and rubbed her brows, as if she was in deep thought. Her long black hair cascaded down, covering her beautiful face.

"Your Majesty, you should take a rest! You haven't rested for several days." Wangchuan said softly, with a hint of anxiety in his tone, as if the voice came from a distant place, gently floating into Yeyou's ears.

Ye You frowned slightly, let out a light sigh, and did not open his tightly closed eyes. Then he said, "Wang Chuan, go and bring today's roster to me."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wangchuan responded respectfully, then turned and left.

After Wangchuan left, Yeyou continued to look through the piles of rosters, occasionally stopping to pick up a pen to mark a name or item. She was so focused that she seemed to be completely immersed in her work that she didn't even notice when Qingli led everyone into the hall.

This was the first time Ling Han saw Ye You's true face. She was bent over the table, concentrating on examining some rosters. Her slightly lowered head made her eyelashes look thicker. At this moment, she was no longer as cold as usual, but only serious and focused. Although she looked a little tired, it did not affect her peerless beauty at all. The long hair hanging in front of her chest added unprecedented tenderness to her.

At first, Ye You thought it was Wang Chuan who had returned, but she soon realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere. She slowly raised her head, and her eyes finally met Qing Li who was standing not far away.

When Chu Heng and Xi'er saw Ye You's appearance, they both gasped involuntarily, and countless questions surged in their minds: Why does Ye You look so similar to Qing Li? They are simply cut from the same mold!

Recalling the last time Qingli taught Chu Heng the art of defense, Chu Heng had seen her true face with his own eyes. At that time, Qingli told him that she rarely wore a mask in her palace, so Chu Heng was able to see Qingli's peerless grace.

Hill had the opportunity to see Qingli because Qingli often visited the elves. However, Hill knew nothing about Yeyou's appearance, and had no idea that they had such a striking resemblance.

Ling Han was standing aside. He was the only one who had never seen Qingli's face. When he saw the surprised expressions of Chu Heng and Xi'er, he thought that they were just shocked by the master's stunning beauty, but had no idea the real reason.
