Elemental Light Mage

Chapter 508: A temporary truce

"You want to say that you are actually a good person? And I have always misunderstood you?" The past was still vivid in his mind. Xi Yeming could not believe what Bassis said. "The blood clan, the Changsheng Village, and the sea monsters, you are involved in them, right?"

"Tsk, I won't shirk my responsibility for these things," Bassis admitted, "but what I said was all true."

Xi Yeming was too lazy to pay attention to Bassis. He finally had a chance to kill him, he couldn't just ignore it.

Several ice swords condensed into being, and their sword tips were all pointed at Prince Bassis.

Bassis wanted to survive, so he shouted desperately: "Wait, if you kill me, the goddess will become stronger!"

"what……?"

Xi Yeming was confused. He was surprised why Bassis knew so much.

He put down his finger and confirmed: "The goddess you are talking about is not accustomed to appearing in the form of black mist, right?"

The unknown goddess who first controlled my aunt in the dream in the form of black mist and later took over the body of Hiiragi in Tiannv Mountain actually has a close connection with Bassis?

Xi Yeming asked: "Do you know what her goal is?"

Bassis finally felt at ease. He said honestly, "Although I don't know what her purpose is, I know that if every magician she has favored dies, their power will return to its source and strengthen her strength."

Speaking of this, Xi Yeming recalled that when his uncle Roxas died, there was indeed a force surging out of his body. Everyone just thought it was a sign of death and did not think in other directions.

It is hard to say whether Bu Yu is dead or not, but after being gripped by the mechanical god behind the sky, it is hard to say that he is not dead. However, Xi Yeming did not see his death appearance and was not sure whether such a phenomenon existed.

As for my aunt Xi Leqiu, she is not dead yet. She is still alive in my body. This kind of phenomenon should not happen.

Bassis and his companions stared at the distressed Xi Yeming, and suddenly saw his expression change as if he was listening to something, and then he started talking to himself, saying words like "Really?", "That seems to be true" and so on.

"Have you already seen her?" Bassis thought it was not impossible for an extraordinary person like Xi Yeming to meet an unknown goddess.

"I won't kill you today. You saved your life, Lucius."

He didn't call him Bassis, but the fake "name" he had in the past. It was obvious that Xi Yeming was deliberately making fun of him.

Xue Mingdeng asked suspiciously, "Why call him Lucius? There is a story between the two of them."

"Let's talk about what you rely on to survive, things I don't know." Xi Yeming's shoulders were relaxed, and he looked like he had really let go of his murderous intent. "First, tell me what happened with the traitor among the Scale Guards."

"I'm not sure about this."

Xi Yeming frowned, and the ground spikes instantly surrounded the three of them. The spikes seemed to be deliberately kept a distance from their faces to ensure that they could be seen clearly.

"Your innate magic relies on sensing the murderous intent of others to defend against causality, right? In other words, as long as I think about killing you, your innate magic will not be able to protect you."

Bass was speechless and did not confirm, but he did not dare to deny it either, because he did not know exactly what the effect of his innate magic was. After all, he got it from an unknown goddess.

"It is true that there are traitors among the Scale Guard, but I only know a few things and not all of them."

Xi Yeming looked at it coldly, "Then how dare you use it to negotiate terms with me?"

Bassis, who was in the hands of fate and life and death, could only say: "I roughly know that the man seems to have a very important position in the Scale Guard, and he may even be the emperor's confidant."

Now Xi Yeming was a little suspicious again.

The emperor's confidant? If so, then the emperor's dog-training skills are too poor, and he doesn't even know that there is a traitor around him.

When he thought back, the eldest princess Angelina had been meeting with him openly, State Elder Qiao was also trying to please him, Bai Jiesong looked rebellious, and the emperor's temper seemed to be much better than he had imagined... ?

"I rely on!"

Xi Yeming felt a little sick that he actually had a little affection for the emperor. He was about to vomit up last week's meal.

"I say, are you trying to confuse me and ask me to interfere in the emperor's internal affairs?"

"Absolutely impossible."

Xi Yeming guessed that Basis was probably an isolated prince in the kingdom. He couldn't just sit back and watch when he got this kind of news, even if it was false. If he had a good relationship with the emperor, he could tell. But the current situation was...

"Next question, how do you know about the unknown goddess? And how do you know that your power will return to her body after you die?"

"Remember the day we said goodbye as kids?"

-

As a child, Bassi fell in a pool of blood. After surviving the disaster, he became a little more sober, but when his nasal cavity was filled with the smell of blood, the feeling of nausea overwhelmed Bassi's nerves and made him vomit.

A woman with long hair came up to Bassis, slowly stretched out her hand to him and said, "From today on, you are my dependent."

Bassis did not hold the hand that was helping him. He was in so much pain that he had no energy to digest the words of the unknown goddess.

Fortunately, the unknown goddess did not have too many conditions for the subordinates she took a fancy to. She pointed her palm at Bassis and shared her magic power with him.

The unfounded sense of security soothed his heart, and after his limbs regained strength, he looked up and faced his savior.

"Ok?"

The unknown goddess sensed that something was approaching, and Bassis, who was receiving the goddess' magic, also turned his head and looked in a certain direction.

At first glance it looked like a meteor, but when it got closer Bassius could see that it was just a faint point of light.

The light spot automatically floated to the chest of the unknown goddess. She grasped the light spot and absorbed it, then said calmly: "It turns out that Wan Lao is dead."

Bassis subconsciously asked, "Who is Wanlao?"

"Like you, he is one of my followers, but he was just killed by someone from the south."

"What would happen if I died...?" A hole collapsed in his heart, and his mental defect made him really uneasy.

"It will return to my origin, become a part of me, and give all the magic to me."

-

"Wait, Wanlao?"

Xi Yeming vaguely felt that he had heard this name, but his memory was very vague. However, he could roughly confirm that he had heard of him when he was in college.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"No, there's nothing wrong." Xi Yeming shook his head, not wanting to expose his own gaffe. "Didn't you see her face clearly?"

"I must have seen her at the time, but then I forgot her face and even her clothes."

If it weren't for the innate magic given to him, Bassis would have regarded that escape from death as a dream.
