Chapter 960: Chapter 471: Emerald Green High Walls

Lily seemed rather vague about why she got injured.

This was easy to detect because it was contrary to her usual talkative nature.

Li Ang had no intention of inquiring about the cause and truth; he noticed that since the beginning, Liluliss, even when mentioning their child, never mentioned her husband, Zoe’s father.

Just recently, a name starting with "Lamu" seemingly referred to that person, but Lily didn’t want to elaborate either.

"Little Baha told me to come here, can you help me heal again?"

When mentioning the child, Lily’s face was filled with a complex expression: affection, longing, confusion, and even a hint of fear, as if until now, she didn’t know how to explain things to that child.

These expressions momentarily vanished when discussing demons, but now they surfaced again.

"Once I fully recover, I’ll be able to go back and see her!" Lily clenched her fist.

"Why must you recover before going back?" Li Ang asked.

"That’s because..."

Lily suddenly choked up, thought for a long while, and then said, "Someone is hunting me, and without my full strength, I’m afraid I can’t protect her well..."

This was certainly one reason, but probably not the entire reason.

Li Ang did not continue, the topic returned to Liluliss’s wound itself.

"From my past understanding, injuries to the spiritual structure shouldn’t have a healing method, but now I’m personally standing at Nebis’s intermediary point where all spirits circulate. Here, the concentration of basic spirits is so dense that even passing through the wound would fill part of it."

Just like sprinkling fine particles on a concave surface, even though the particles and the surface differ in material, they will settle into those gaps; Lily’s healing follows this principle.

Because Diao and Inanna proposed to check Lily’s condition, she consequently raised her hopes.

"Miss Lily, previously you mainly relied on the high concentration of spirits at the center of the Sanctuary of All Spirits for healing, which indeed works, however..."

Diao pondered over the words and said, "Since the Sanctuary of All Spirits is the Domain where Nebis’s stronger spiritual bodies reside, the concentration here may exceed your imagination, yet you haven’t found the region with the highest concentration."

"You mean?!"

Lily immediately grew enthusiastic.

"Yes, there are still areas around here that are gathered with thicker spirits. I’ve already sensed them earlier, if we find them—"

"Great! Thank you!"

Diao hadn’t finished talking and was already caught in a hug by Lily.

"I, I, this, I should use my own knowledge..."

Diao hadn’t experienced such contact, becoming instantly bewildered.

The ancient witches of the Zultin Marsh are people immersed in ancient practices, while Liluliss herself, though possibly from a sect even older than the ancient witches, gives off a vibe like a modern city’s lively young high school girl.

"Oh, wasn’t it your choice to help me or not? Of course, I have to thank you."

"The Great Witch decided to cooperate with you, I will certainly help you."

"Great Witch? Li Ang?"

Lily looked back and forth between Li Ang and Diao: "What’s your relationship? Husband and wife?"

"No, dear." Inanna interjected before anyone else.

"Inanna, Earth Dragon, so you chose to wed a human?"

Lily looked surprised: "I thought the Six Dragons were all high above us."

"None of your business?" Inanna turned her head, blushing.

"The Great Witch and the Earth Dragon God aren’t married either." Diao lowered her head slightly, her bangs casting shadows over her eyes.

"And, neither are, Li Ang who do you wish to..."

"Why the fuss over marriage?" Li Ang looked helplessly at Liluliss.

"Because intimate men and women are just that kind of relationship, someone told me so."

"That’s not wrong, but there are many stages within this..."

"Li Ang is the commander of the Sky Knight Order among mortals; other than him, the entire order is composed of women. As for whom he wishes to pledge the mortal vow, it’s none of my concern."

Inanna grasped Li Ang’s palm, and a golden mark suddenly appeared: "Our connection has long transcended such a level."

"This seems like a mark of power passed by the Six Dragons, usually given to Deputies, such a specification, wow, let me see."

Lily, lacking many common ideas, surprisingly knew considerable knowledge about the Six Dragons.

She clicked in amazement at the golden winged claw mark, then turned to the brown-skinned young girl: "So Diao is a member of Li Ang’s order?"

Diao’s lips moved as if wanting to express many things, but unable to say them.

She faced a conflicted silence for a while before choosing not to say anything.

Lily, receiving no response, returned her focus to the area with gathered spirits just mentioned.

"Diao, can you help me find them?"

The ancient witch maiden nodded, looked outside the tree hole, and the Evil King Demon Remains had already floated to who knows where. The group stepped out of the tree hole, and Diao crouched amid a glowing stream, her fingertips touching it, the light reflecting off her acorn-colored nails, making them shine.

The ripple she sensed spread through the water saturated with spirits, this ability combined with the perception inherent in ancient witchcraft, which a Spiritual Forger’s inherent sensory ability cannot achieve.

Learning to emulate her requires weaving corresponding sensory skills using professional knowledge.

And simply acquiring skills isn’t enough, one also needs knowledge to discern sensory results; these are knowledge preserved and summarized over long times in the Ancient Witch Tribe.

"Over there." After a while, the young girl stood up, pointing in one direction.

The group set out, gradually walking out of the area of sword remnants into the dreamy prairie at the center of the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits, where large bulrushes sway against the starry backdrop, blown by the breeze carrying the tide conveyed by the flow of spirits in this world.
