Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 242 The First Step in Backstabbing! Ya Li's Doubts!
After a while.

"Mom, I'm coming!"

"Come on, you kid... I just can't do anything with you."

Looking at Jiang Yi's confident expression, Ya Li shook her head helplessly.

The child insisted that his bloodline and the Seed of Nature had undergone a mutation and wanted to have his body examined.

"Hehe, don't worry, I will definitely be able to help you recover."

Jiang Yi patted his chest and assured Ya Li.

His eagerness to try made Yali feel both gratified and somewhat helpless.

How could my own old problem be so simple?
But she couldn't refuse Jiang Yi's good intentions, so she decided to let him give it a try.

"Okay, go ahead and do it."

Yali pushed herself up from the chair.

She slowly closed her eyes, turning her back to Jiang Yi, but she didn't hold out much hope.

"Mom, just bear with it, I'll be quick..."

Jiang Yi's voice sounded behind her, and then a warm hand gently touched her back.

The next second, Yali suddenly opened her eyes.

A surge of vital energy was flowing into her body through Jiang Yi's palm.

"Huh? This is..."

Yali's previously nonchalant face suddenly showed a hint of surprise.

She exhausted her life force to save people back then, and now her body is like a funnel, constantly losing its vitality.

Fortunately, thanks to Ming Ge's life-sharing contract, the gap was barely plugged, and a delicate life cycle was formed between the two.

But the price is that her life essence can only depend on Ming Ge, and the two share life.

This life energy is now nourishing its own parched origin.

Could this silly child have used some kind of forbidden magic?

Ya Li's heart tightened, and she wanted to interrupt him, but Jiang Yi's voice rang out at that moment.

"Mom, don't move! I only recently mastered this power myself, and abruptly stopping it might backfire..."

Upon hearing this, Yali hesitated and stopped what she was doing.

"Rest assured, this is the power of the Seed of Nature, simply transformed through my awakened bloodline..."

Jiang Yi continued to comfort Ya Li.

Having finally found an opportunity to thoroughly investigate Yali's physical condition, they naturally couldn't miss it.

If what Cai Yue'er said is true, then subduing Ya Li is not impossible.

"Silly child, don't force yourself..."

Yali sighed, no longer refusing, but calming her mind to carefully sense the changes within her body.

As the continuous flow of creative power surged in, Ya Li felt as if her body, like parched land receiving sweet rain, was thirstily absorbing this life essence belonging to Jiang Yi.

At the same time, her soul power also became restless, and the ninety-nine-level barrier that had been blocking her way reappeared.

Could it be... that this time it can really work?
A spark of hope quietly ignited in Ya Li's heart. If she could recover, she wouldn't have to be a burden to Ming Ge anymore.

However, at that moment, an unexpected event occurred!
……

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

"Can the realm of gods really be achieved?"

Yun Ming sat by the window, gazing at the fallen leaves of the ancient golden tree in the distance, his eyes deep and distant.

For ten thousand years, countless powerful individuals from Shrek Academy have been pursuing the path to godhood.

Poseidon Island, Spirit Ice Douluo... they even explored the legendary fallen Angel God.

The previous sect leader, his teacher, even found a fragment of a divine position in a broken secret realm.

But they... all of them failed.

"Yali and the others should be arriving in Xingluo by now."

Yun Ming suddenly sighed again, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

This was also the first time in decades that Yali had left him to travel far away.

Although their relationship was somewhat complicated and full of twists and turns, his feelings for Yali were genuine.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Yun Ming frowned, and a surge of powerful life energy erupted from his body, invigorating him.

"This is... Yali?"

Yun Ming's heart stirred; this life energy was coming from the shared contract.

"It can even nourish the very essence of life."

Yun Ming exclaimed in surprise, feeling as if his lifespan had increased by more than ten years in just a short while.

But then, his expression suddenly darkened.

Clearly, on the other side of the life-sharing contract, someone is treating Yali.

"Yali, I'm sorry..."

Yun Ming murmured, his eyes shifting several times before finally turning cold as he absorbed all of that life essence.

In the life-sharing contract, he is both the subject and the leader of the contract.

Time passed slowly until the life energy on the other side of the contract was exhausted, at which point he gradually stopped guiding.

"Yali, wait for me a little longer..."

He looked at his palms, where the warmth of life energy still lingered.

"When I become a god, I will confess everything to you and make it up to you tenfold." His teacher had gone through countless hardships to help him fuse with this fragment of a godhood, and he couldn't let his teacher's efforts go to waste.

His teacher's dying wish, Shrek's eternal pursuit... all rest on his shoulders; he cannot fail.

Without Yali, he could not have used the faith of the angels to repair this divine position.

"Yali...you'll understand me, won't you?"

He murmured to himself, as if asking Yali, or perhaps trying to convince himself.

Because of the existence of a life contract, our lives are shared, and this life energy is the same no matter who has it.

I will give it to you without hesitation whenever you need it, really!

……

Meanwhile, on the Starship.

boom!
Yali's aura surged to its peak, as if she were about to cross the ninety-ninth level in the next second.

But the next moment, her aura, as always, instantly weakened.

"Godmother!"

Jiang Yi rushed forward and supported her swaying body.

"I...it's okay."

Yali shook her head; she had failed again.

However, his own essence has been somewhat compensated, and perhaps with time, he will eventually be able to recover.

However, the next moment, when she looked inward, a look of astonishment flashed in her eyes.

As Jiang Yi released her, her body returned to its original state, and the little bit of essence she had previously regained was completely lost.

How can it be?

As a healing soul master, it's impossible for her not to notice anything unusual when her essence is lost.

But that's just how reality is...

"Godmother, what's wrong?"

Jiang Yi looked at Ya Li, who seemed lost in thought, and asked her with concern, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

Is the treatment ineffective?

Just as he had predicted, the life contract itself was a sham.

Putting aside everything else, in this era, even becoming a quasi-god only grants a lifespan of a little over three hundred years.

Yun Mingzhen shared half of his life with Ya Li, and the two of them should be close to the age where they should be in their coffins now.

"No... not."

Yali shook her head, suppressing her doubts.

"I was too impatient, Xiao Yi. You should go back now! Your godmother is a little tired."

She stood up and gave Jiang Yi a slightly forced smile.

"Okay, then you should get some rest. I'll come see you again later."

Jiang Yi nodded, then turned and left.

Yun Ming sucked too much; he sucked up all the supplies he had left for Nanali.

He left decisively, without any special guidance.

Given the terrifying nature of love-struck individuals in Douluo Continent, Ya Li must discover this step by step on her own in order to completely destroy her psychological defenses.

"Ugh!"

She watched Jiang Yi leave, and sighed softly in her heart.

Perhaps I was too eager to break through and lost some of my original essence, who knows...

Of course, there is another possibility... the source has not disappeared, it is just not in oneself.

But this is impossible!
Yali bit her lip, trying to dispel the thought, and felt a pang of shame.

If Brother Ming wanted her dead, he could have simply not saved her in the first place.

……

Meanwhile, Jiang Yi returned to his cabin.

Leng Yulai was lying in bed, taking her beauty nap, while Nanali was curled up on the sofa playing video games.

"Has the Ghost Emperor replied yet?"

Jiang Yi sat down next to Nanali, nudged her gently with his elbow, and asked softly.

He already had a good idea of ​​what was going on with Yali; now it was up to the Holy Spirit Cult to decide what to do.

"In a few days, when we arrive at Xingluo, the Green Skull organization there will launch an attack, and the Underworld Emperor will also be coming..."

Nanali said without turning her head.

There was no signal at sea, so she had to run the errand herself, which nearly exhausted her.

"Ok!"

Jiang Yi nodded slightly, stroked his chin, and fell into deep thought.

He wasn't surprised that the Holy Spirit Cult would definitely intervene if Yali dared to go out alone.

But if Yali falls into the hands of Harosa and his men, her chances of survival are slim, and that won't do...

Just as he was deep in thought, Nanali came over with a grin.

"Hehe! Your Highness, I'd like to ask for leave..."

Jiang Yi:? ? ?

What kind of trouble is this wicked little girl up to now?
