"disappeared?"
Upon hearing this, almost all the senior executives were unsettled.
Why didn't you notify us in advance?
"What should we do? Could it be that Lin Qiye died in the outer realms, and the Goddess of Darkness has come to hold us accountable...?"
"........"
Hearing this, Li Jie rolled his eyes in annoyance.
These high-ranking officials really seem to thrive on chaos, but whether Lin Qiye is dead or not is probably only known to Li Jie himself.
"Okay, quiet for a bit..."
Ye Fan was also getting a headache from the noise. He lightly tapped the table and said weakly.
Then, he looked at the human ceiling around him.
"Who among you is willing to make the trip?"
Just as Guan was about to raise his hand to signal, Li Jie stood up first.
With a slight sigh, he estimated that apart from him, no one else present had ever met this goddess of creation.
“I’ll go. I’m fairly familiar with Aunt Nix, and we can talk things through.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan thought for a moment and then agreed to Li Jie's request.
This is probably the safest way, after all, he is very close to Lin Qiye.
"Okay, then go and check on the situation. Take the satellite phone with you so you can contact us anytime in case of an emergency."
Hearing this, Li Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief, much better than watching the high-level executives scheming against each other in the conference room.
He prefers to go outside for a stroll.
Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he got up and walked to the window.
"Please give way."
Li Jie spoke very politely to the older, most boisterous executive who was blocking his way.
"Ah good."
After the executive stood up, Li Jie reached out and pushed open the specially treated window frame in front of him.
With a flash of sword light, they disappeared from the conference room.
It's worth mentioning that he also casually stabbed the older executive in the buttocks; although not fatal, it certainly didn't feel good.
This can be considered as...
Leave him a small gift.
Seeing this, Ye Fan smiled wryly and shook his head gently.
"This kid..."
..........
Above the clouds, Li Jie sat cross-legged on the Zhuxian Sword, dozing off out of boredom.
Although the report from headquarters was very clear, even specifying the coordinates where Nyx appeared.
But Li Jie didn't think Nix would stay put and wait for him to come over.
"Why didn't you just kill those people? You have no backbone at all, it's disgusting..."
Just then, Xian'er floated out of her dantian, lightly touched the hilt of her sword with her toes, and asked in a puzzled voice.
"Why did you have to resort to violence...?"
“I wouldn’t gain anything by killing those people, and besides, Commander Ye must have his reasons for keeping them alive.”
"Suit yourself. If you don't nip it in the bud, those people might stab you in the back."
Xian'er's words carried a hint of disappointment and frustration.
"Relax, those people are no match for me now. With you by my side, even if a god came, I would still cut him down without hesitation."
"As if you're something special..."
"That's right, I still have a big move to make!"
"You? What kind of amazing moves could you possibly have?"
"Does becoming as tall as a mountain count as a powerful move?"
"...Nonsense..."
“Hahaha~~~!”
And so, as the two chatted casually, the Northern Ice Plains came into view.
"Back here again..."
"Yes... we're back here again."
"By the way, why haven't Xiao Jue and the others returned yet?"
“They have completely unsealed their primordial power during that divine war. I told them to return to the Heavenly Court to recuperate first, and then come back to us after their energy has stabilized.”
"I see... Never mind, let's not think about that for now. Let's find out where Aunt Nyx is."
Although he had reached the location marked by the Night's Watch, he did not sense Nyx's presence nearby.
It seems...
He's really gone...
"Did you find anything?"
After landing, Xian'er did not return to her Qi Sea, but stayed by Li Jie's side and walked slowly forward.
"No, I think she probably just came back for a quick look."
"........"
And so, the two of them wandered aimlessly through the icy plains of the North, searching for Nyx.
Soon, the thick darkness of night had swallowed up all the sunset glow, and the bright moonlight shone down on the world.
"fool."
"Ok?"
"You have suffered during this time."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because... it was my decision to put you in that altar."
"Oh, I see. Then I should thank you."
"Do you want to know what I went through at the altar?"
"I'm willing to listen as long as you tell me."
At this point, Li Jie suddenly stopped.
Xian'er didn't react for a moment. After sensing the change in Li Jie's emotions, she turned her head in confusion and looked at the smiling white-haired boy.
"how?"
"Xian'er, the story may have to wait until later."
After saying that, he waved to the endless night sky.
"Aunt Nyx, since you're here, come down and let's have a chat."
As soon as Li Jie finished speaking, the brightest star that had been shining in the night sky suddenly fell.
In the blink of an eye, a beautiful woman in palace attire appeared before the two of them.
"Brother Danadus, it's been a long time..."
Indeed, Li Jie, who had integrated the laws of night into the altar, had an even more acute grasp of the surrounding atmosphere after nightfall.
Actually, Nyx was always here, but he couldn't show himself until nightfall.
After sensing the aura emanating from Nyx, Li Jie slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems the situation is better than I anticipated.
Although she had some injuries, she managed to wrest the divine body back from Olympus.
Now, he was unsure what Nyx's purpose was in coming here.
With this thought in mind, he asked the question.
"Auntie, is there anything I can do for you in Daxia?"
"Brother of Danadus, I need your help."
Nix didn't mince words and directly stated his purpose for coming to Great Xia.
However, Li Jie really didn't expect this.
Nyx traveled all the way to Great Xia just to find himself...
"How about we find a place to talk this out?"
"It probably isn't in a huge rush..."
Upon hearing this, Nyx nodded and then gestured for Li Jie to lead the way.
After some deliberation, Li Jie finally decided to bring Nyx to the ice palace where Xiao Jue had previously nurtured his source power.
After all, that ice palace is the closest and safest place to us.
After they were seated, Li Jie raised his hand to signal that Nyx could continue.
However, the latter's next request left Li Jie in a state of great distress.
"I need you and me to go back to Olympus."
Li Jie: "Huh?"
Xian'er: "Huh?"
Lulu, hidden within Li Jie's dantian: "Sounds...really exciting..."
