After the Lord of the Abyss Awakens - Chapter 133.2

“I will kill you.” Wang Chang’er’s voice was cold and resolute. His figure flashed and instantly appeared in front of Arnolo, his sword slashing down through the air, the sharp blade cleanly severing Arnolo’s head.

From Arnolo’s severed neck, a viscous liquid of filth and curses gushed out like an oil eruption, with dark power scattering in all directions.

“Hmm.” With this deep response, Arnolo’s figure vanished without a trace, leaving only the empty black coffin.

The two had no time to care about other matters. The urgent task was to open the black coffin and rescue Chen Lingxi who was trapped inside.

Chen Lingxi, being a heavy armor warrior class, excelled in defense and possessed the ability to resist curses. Therefore, the curse power emanating from the black coffin had not caused her much harm.

As soon as the black coffin opened, Chen Lingxi slowly opened her eyes. The first thing that came into view was Ye Qingyi’s concerned face, then her gaze shifted and met Wang Chang’er’s eyes.

The joy and excitement of reuniting with friends at this moment were beyond words.

Wang Chang’er couldn’t help but ask. “Are you alright?”

“No…”

Chen Lingxi sat up, slowly climbing out of the black coffin with Ye Qingyi’s support.

During these thousands of years, she actually hadn’t been in much trouble, and was conscious most of the time, but just didn’t have the ability to open the black coffin. There was no helping it – her class wasn’t one with strong combat abilities.

Chen Lingxi made an effort to use her vocal cords that hadn’t been used for a long time, and finally clearly spoke, “I’m fine, Brother Wang.”

Having not seen the sun for so long, she instinctively shrank back, using her hand to block the sunlight as her eyes slowly adjusted to the brightness.

Her complexion was very pale, having not been in the sun for too long, her skin was almost transparent.

To make her more comfortable, Ye Qingyi waved her hand causing clouds to surge and block the sky’s light, instantly darkening the earth.

Chen Lingxi couldn’t help but laugh, saying to Ye Qingyi, “Sister Ye, there’s no need to exaggerate like this.”

Ye Qingyi’s eyes showed nostalgia. “Lingxi, you’re still the same as ever.”

Chen Lingxi reflexively asked, “Really?”

As she spoke, she finally managed to stand steadily, no longer needing their support.

Looking at Chen Lingxi’s appearance, Ye Qingyi seemed to recall the time when they first crossed over.

Chen Lingxi’s gaze swept across the lake’s surface, and she also managed to see her own appearance clearly. To better resist the curse, she had transformed herself into her younger self.

Back then, when Chen Lingxi crossed over to the other world, she wasn’t very old, only seventeen or eighteen, still in high school. She had encountered the game during summer vacation and somehow crossed over to this place, panicked and lost. She, who had only ever been a good student, came to such a cruel world for the first time. If it weren’t for the brothers and sisters by her side constantly comforting and encouraging her, she might have broken down long ago.

Chen Lingxi was organizing her memories and was about to speak.

“You must have a lot you want to know about, it’s a long story.”

Wang Chang’er smiled and said, “Let me tell you something exciting first.”

“What?”

Chen Lingxi was stunned.

An hour later.

Chen Lingxi learned from the two about the current world situation, the true identity of the Abyss Lords, and other such intelligence, as well as the most important thing – their Brother Xiu was still alive.

“Really?!”

Chen Lingxi was overjoyed, and in her excitement, her magic power leaked out, causing the lake water to surge.

Wang Chang’er nodded. “Yes, he’s working hard on leveling up now.”

Ye Qingyi added, “With many adorable nieces and nephews meow.”

“Meow? Haha.”

Chen Lingxi was a moe enthusiast and had raised cats when she was young. Hearing them say this, she was very excited to meet her nieces and nephews!

“However, They’re probably quite busy right now.”

Wang Chang’er seemed to recall something, his gaze unconsciously drifting towards the direction of the Oedipus Empire.

“Busy dealing with the Creator God?”

Ye Qingyi slightly nodded.

“Then it wouldn’t be good to go disturb them.”

Chen Lingxi pondered. Since she was young, she had always been the type who didn’t like causing trouble for others, and this hadn’t changed even after thousands of years.

It just showed how difficult it was to change one’s fundamental personality.

“We’ll go when there’s a chance.”

Chen Lingxi said with a smile.

Wang Chang’er pressed his fingers lightly against his temple, as if contacting the other side, and said, “They say Brother Xiu is leveling up in his dreams.”

Chen Lingxi immediately said, “I hope Brother Xiu succeeds smoothly!”

As she spoke, she looked around and asked puzzled. “By the way, where are Luo Jie, Ming Jie, and… who?”

“You forgot Justin.”

Ye Qingyi gently reminded.

“Haha.”

Chen Lingxi scratched her head embarrassedly. Her behavior showed no signs of being thousands of years old, and she explained, “Can’t help it, Brother Justin has no presence.”

Wang Chang’er laughed, “If he knew this, he’d probably take an arrow to the knee right now.”

Chen Lingxi felt somewhat apologetic and continued asking, “So where are they?”

Ye Qingyi answered, “They’ve been recovering from their injuries, and should be healed by now, but they’re in our niece’s domain, so it’s not convenient for them to come out.”

Wang Chang’er turned to Ye Qingyi, his eyes flashing with inquiry, “Should we ask?”

Ye Qingyi nodded, “We can.”

“Alright.”

Chen Lingxi immediately became full of anticipation.

Moments later, space rippled like waves and then split open into a crack. Marbas, brilliant with golden light, stepped out with a radiant smile on His face.

Chen Lingxi instantly widened her eyes, with surprise practically written in them.

Following Marbas, Luo Jie, Ming Jie, and Justin walked out one after another.

The heroes reunited after many years apart, their exchanged glances particularly emotional.

As soon as Marbas landed, He eagerly spoke, “Uncles and Aunts, I need to go guard Father now, you all catch up first.” After speaking, He turned to leave, His golden light appearing even more dazzling in the sunset’s glow, causing all six people to squint their eyes.

Chen Lingxi was particularly dazed. Before she had entered the coffin, she had been very impressed by the Abyss Lord Marbas.

The richest in the continent, no, the universe.

To think He was my nephew! Chen Lingxi was truly shocked.

The three including Luo Jie were used to it by now – Brother Xiu’s children were all very shocking.

Luo Jie looked back, saying happily, “Brother Wang, Sister Ye, Sister Lingxi.”

Wang Chang’er looked at Luo Jie, examining him up and down. “Looks like you’re fine now.”

Luo Jie smiled and said, “I’m not as capable as I used to be.”

Ye Qingyi smiled faintly without speaking.

Chen Lingxi sighed. “I never thought I’d be the last one to come out of the coffin.”

Justin shook his head and said, “How could we break out of our coffins like they did?” As he spoke, Justin’s gaze fell on Wang Chang’er and Ye Qingyi respectively.

They had been firmly sealed for thousands of years, unable to move. If it weren’t for their nieces and nephews’ help, who knows when they would have gotten out, but these two had gotten out by themselves.

Really, comparing people… damn! Don’t they care about face?

Justin suddenly felt complicated emotions.

Meanwhile, Ming Jie, looking at the young faces of his old friends, had a feeling of being in a different world, and couldn’t help but ask, “When was the last time all six of us gathered together?”

The five people were slightly stunned.

Wang Chang’er recalled. “It’s been a long time.”

Ye Qingyi turned to look at Wang Chang’er. “Brother Wang and I haven’t seen each other for over a thousand years, right?”

Luo Jie asked Ye Qingyi, “Where have you been?”

Ye Qingyi said seriously, “Studying magic.”

“Sister Ye, you studied magic for over a thousand years?”

“Is that strange?”

“Hahahahaha.”

Everyone laughed together.

Wang Chang’er looked around at everyone, smiling. “Whatever the case, it’s good that everyone is safe.”

Ye Qingyi nodded. “We’re basically all here now.”

Chen Lingxi said, “We’re still missing Brother Xiu.”

Luo Jie said with certainty, “Soon, soon.”

“Anyway, let’s take care of things on our end first.”

“Brother Wang is right.”

“But the Creator God’s main target is Brother Xiu, and Brother Xiu is under the protection of our nieces and nephews, so what can we help with?”

“Good question.”

“Brother Wang, stop just smiling, tell us quickly.”

“Well, our main task is to ensure They have no worries about what’s behind them.”

Wang Chang’er’s gaze focused on the most towering castle of the Elf race, and he explained in a deep voice. “It was exactly for this purpose that I joined hands with the Elf King.”

Ye Qingyi nodded, “The guarantee of war is important.”

The six heroes talked for a while, then split up to carry out their actions.

The Creator God’s arrogance meant He wouldn’t be good at anything before the war, and this was precisely their advantage.

****

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Marbas watched this scene from afar, warmth in His eyes, and sighed: “Father’s friend collection is complete.”

The day when all seven heroes would gather was not far off. Good!

Marbas pondered internally, so now only… their twelfth brother Sitri was left.

“Where did you run off to?”

Marbas’s expression became serious, and He also gradually felt that things weren’t simple. Barbatos, Bachin, and Valefor couldn’t find Sitri together – had this fellow vanished into thin air, or… had He really been brainwashed like the Calabash Brothers?

It wasn’t that Marbas was thinking wildly, mainly because the current situation was really too odd. Logically speaking, Sitri should have sensed Father’s aura. Not to mention nearby, Big Brother could sense it from such a far place, so no matter how far Sitri had run, could it be farther than Big Brother?

It couldn’t possibly be further, right? So Sitri must have run into trouble.

It must be said that besides Sitri, Agares was also currently a concern.

Vassago had already emptied the authorities of Death and Silence, but there was still no movement from Agares in the depths of the dream.

Theoretically speaking, Agares couldn’t wake up, because once He woke up, He wouldn’t be able to maintain Father’s existence. What Marbas wanted to know was, how was Agares’s universe-level magic doing now?

Was it complete? How much longer until it would be complete? Father’s leveling up looked very smooth, it shouldn’t be far off, right?

Marbas transformed into a golden chinchilla cat and wobbled back home, couldn’t help but ask Vassago, “Third Brother, how’s the situation?”

Vassago stood in the void of the dream realm and answered, “I don’t know either.”

“Second Brother hasn’t shown any movement?”

“Yeah, still a sleeping beauty demon.”

Marbas felt a bit strange internally, our Third Brother’s choice of words was as peculiar as ever.

“Alright.”

Marbas shrugged, knowing it was useless to ask Third Brother.

Vassago suddenly said, “You’ve seen the situation up there.”

He was referring to a certain cosmic region outside the continent, of course.

Marbas naturally understood, commenting. “Shaking up gods, huh.”

Making a grand show, even building temples from nothing, the gods’ memories about the Creator God were gradually recovering.

Although the Creator God didn’t say a word, He had already told all gods in silence: Those who follow me will prosper, those who oppose me will perish, all gods and all creations must take sides.

Otherwise what? One could imagine.

Marbas glanced at the universe and said indifferently, “Looks like quite a few gods have been shaken.”

Vassago was also looking, and counted, “Currently 123 first echelon gods have gone to His side.”

“After all, He is the Creator God, got to have some face, right?”

Marbas extended His divine sense, instantly covering the continent, and said while observing, “Wow, there are also many neutral ones, Wisdom and Fortune are both neutral, They’re very wise.”

Vassago wasn’t surprised at all, “As the Creator God, Lord of all things, yet there are so many beings who don’t follow Him, it shows that He hasn’t done very well as a lord.”

As soon as He finished speaking, the subspace suddenly shook violently, as if someone had heard and become furiously angry.

Marbas looked up, made a “wow” sound, and laughed. “Third Brother, you made Him break down with just one casual sentence?”

Vassago said calmly, “Isn’t it the truth?”

The rumbling in the subspace became even more intense.

The golden chinchilla cat shrugged, ignoring it, His short legs exerted force in an instant, jumping onto the bed in a second.

His Father was still in slumber, His brows relaxed in the dream, obviously entering an increasingly smooth stage.

That’s great.

Just then, Bachin suddenly sent a message. “Sitri has appeared.”

“Where?”

The golden chinchilla cat immediately asked.

“…in the Creator God’s palace.”
