Chapter 1679 Sun Ying, exhausted from thinking?
When Arost heard Sun Ying's question, his calm and gentlemanly expression immediately became visibly excited!
A flushed red spread from his neck upwards until it covered his entire face.
When mixed with green skin, it instantly gives off a strange, dark vibe, making it look quite comical.
He spoke in an exaggerated, trembling voice:
"Ah, Lord Lu Li, that is the faith of my people, the god of my people, the great being who saved the Gobelin lineage from suffering!"
"Without Lord Lu Li, there would be no prosperity for our Goberin clan!"
"Without Lord Lu Li, there would be no Arost today!"
"The Gobelins are willing to give everything to serve him, whenever he needs them! A single glance or a gesture from him is enough!!"
“Uh…” Sun Ying was taken aback.
Admittedly, even someone as worldly-wise as her was somewhat taken aback by Arost's performance.
Is Gobelin experiencing some kind of mental health issue?
Or……
This guy named Lu Li really helped Gobelins a lot, to the point that he could be worshipped like a god.
“I didn’t mean anything by it… but you still haven’t told me Lu Li’s identity…” Sun Ying interrupted cautiously.
"Although it may sound like he is very important to your Gobelins family."
"Ah, I'm sorry, it was my mistake." Arost composed himself and bowed slightly to Sun Ying again.
"Lord Lu Li is actually the Lord Li Yun you know."
"Do you understand now?"
"Lu Li is Li Yun?!" Although Sun Ying had already suspected something similar, she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice after Aroste confirmed it.
"Is this...is this the Li Yun that Evelina is looking for?"
“Yes, Your Excellency.” Arost nodded affirmatively.
He casually extended his hand, stepped back to the side, and assumed a leading posture, saying:
"If you don't mind, let's talk as we walk."
"Although this place is on the edge of the territory and is relatively safe, for your safety, I suggest you go into the territory as soon as possible."
"Uh..." Upon hearing this, Sun Ying looked around again.
It was full of tall trees and lush vegetation.
It was a completely unfamiliar environment for her.
If they hadn't followed Arost and tried to escape on their own, they probably would have gotten lost in this forest.
Since the other party was able to give Evelyna and Li Yun's names, and so far has not shown any intention to harm her, they probably have no malicious intent.
Let's just go along for now and see how things go.
Thinking of this, Sun Ying nodded and said:
"Alright, then tell me about Li Yun... uh, what's the deal with Lu Li?"
As Arost led the way, he patiently explained:
"Lord Li Yun is actually an incarnation of Lord Lu Li."
"It is a powerful demonic body controlled by a part of Lord Lu Li's soul."
"I see..." Sun Ying nodded thoughtfully, then immediately frowned and asked:
"That Li Yun who recently stepped onto the Demon Battle Stage to challenge the Demon King Qin..."
“It’s Lord Lu Li!” Arost responded immediately, his tone still filled with undisguised admiration.
"He...he's dead?" Sun Ying's eyes widened.
“Yes, he’s dead.” Arost turned around and affirmed without the slightest hesitation:
"Lord Li Yun, who was fighting against Qin, was killed by Lord Lu Li with the Demon-Hunting Sacred Crossbow."
"However, this is a little-known truth."
"On the surface, it appears that Lord Li Yun, who stepped onto the Demon Battle Platform, was actually no match for the Demon King Qin and was defeated and killed."
"Huh?" Sun Ying felt like her brain was a little slow to process what was happening.
Leaving aside the 'truth' and 'appearance' behind Aros,
The mere mention of the sentence 'Lord Li Yun, who fought against Qin, was killed by Lord Lu Li with the Demon-Hunting Sacred Crossbow' was enough to exhaust her thinking!
Are there really no errors in the subject and object here?
Isn't Li Yun just Lu Li?
Lu Li killed Li Yun.
Doesn't that mean he killed himself?
What's going on here?!
It seems pointless and I have nothing better to do than kill myself?
Arost, who was walking in front, noticed that Sun Ying hadn't reacted for a while, so he glanced back at her.
Seeing the other person's blank expression, he roughly guessed the truth and took the initiative to speak:
It's normal that you don't understand.
"After all, this is Lord Lu Li's strategy. How could ordinary beings like us possibly see through his intentions at a glance?"
"All I can say is that everything is going according to plan, so you don't need to worry too much."
"This... alright." Sun Ying swallowed hard and nodded with difficulty.
"Then what about 'truth' and 'appearance'?"
“I remember when Li Yun… uh, Lu Li used the silver giant crossbow to attack the Demon Platform, many demons witnessed the whole process.”
"Including the Demon King Qin on the Battle Demon Platform."
"But why did they not mention it at all afterward, as if they had collectively lost their memory?"
“Ah, of course it’s because of the influence of the authority of ‘existence’.” Arost didn’t keep them in suspense and gave a direct answer:
"It was Song Siming who used the power of the 'Time' authority to teleport Lord Lu Li and Lady Evelina to a more distant past, and then used the power of the 'Existence' authority to erase the fact that they had ever been to the Demon Realm."
"It is precisely because Lord Lu Li and Lady Evelina never 'existed' at the time when Lord Li Yun stepped onto the Demon Battle Platform to challenge Demon King Qin that Qin and the other demons did not mention it at all, as if they had collectively lost their memories."
"In fact, in their eyes, Lord Li Yun was killed by Qin."
"The third party that interfered never 'existed' at all."
The long, tongue-twisting speech made Sun Ying's head throb.
Before we could figure out why Lu Li wanted to kill himself, Song Siming suddenly appeared.
However, Sun Ying is not the type to dwell on things.
Knowing that there was a lot of information involved and that it couldn't be figured out in a short time, she resolutely chose to give up!
Of course, it's a temporary abandonment.
Because compared to those unfamiliar names and complicated relationships, the authority of 'existence' and 'time' that Arost spoke of was obviously more attractive!
Evelyn and Sun Ying are familiar with each other.
She's a blessed succubus, a powerful demon prince.
At first glance, I thought he was incredibly capable, but after five years of getting to know him, I realized he was just a complete slacker.
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with authority or power at all.
Therefore, the root cause of everything that happened before should come from Lord Lu Li, as mentioned by Arost.
Sun Ying had previously heard Evelina describe her and thought that she was at most just a lucky person with great strength.
But now, her views have clearly changed.
It can be associated with authority and power, and there is also a divine projection within its body!
Just who is this guy?!
