Chapter 467: Chapter 377: Heart Material

With a light snap,

black leather shoes stepped into a muddy puddle, splashing water in all directions.

Yet Mo Xingye paid it no heed, hurrying along the post-rain alley.

"Lin Xing was captured by New Country?"

"But I saw him at home before I left this morning..."

All sorts of doubts, worries, and tensions flared in her heart as she hurried back to her dormitory.

But as she approached the dorm building, Mo Xingye slowed down.

She carefully scoped out the surroundings, and only after confirming there was no ambush did she brave her way to her own room.

With a beep of a card swipe, the door was quickly pushed open.

Mo Xingye swiftly scanned the small room, her gaze finally stopping on the man lying midair, relaxing her a bit.

The man floated, as if lying on air itself, his face showing keen interest in the screen of a tablet computer, seemingly engrossed in some extremely fascinating content.

Mo Xingye thought she saw a tiny hand stretch out from his chest to quickly touch the screen.

But when she focused, she could no longer see the hand.

Meanwhile, the man spoke, "You seem quite anxious, has something happened?"

It was then that Mo Xingye shared the news she’d learned from the Quantum Intelligence Research Institute, "...That’s the situation, New Country has announced they’ve captured you and plan to execute you in East Sea City in a month."

Seeing Lin Xing’s calm facade, Mo Xingye said anxiously, "New Country’s release of such false news is clearly meant to lure someone out."

"The Holy Daughter will surely come to East Sea City, and then she’ll fall right into New Country’s trap."

Lin Xing’s face remained undisturbed as he curiously asked, "New Country... have I killed any of their important people or made enemies with them?"

He chuckled then said, "Six years? It must have been six years ago when I defeated many people on Earth. Most were too weak to take note of, not even their names or identities, but could some of them have been from the new government?"

Mo Xingye understood Lin Xing’s implication and replied, "We haven’t made enemies with New Country’s upper echelons, especially not with the President. But ever since a year ago, New Country has been sending people to Xia Country, searching for something."

"Their actions are very brazen, and many reportedly died at their hands."

Sighing, she continued, "Quantum Intelligence Institute was also infiltrated by them, and for some reason, they set their sights on the Holy Daughter."

Clearly, Mo Xingye had limited insight into the whole affair, swiftly relaying all she knew.

The voice of the Broken Sword resounded in Lin Xing’s mind, "Hmph, that New Country’s President surely has you in his sights, there must be those Immortal Court dogs stirring trouble behind the scenes."

"But our return to Earth has only been a few days, and that Dog Immortal is already causing trouble; it seems he has noticed our return."

Yiyi’s voice then rose from his heart, "Scared to make a move themselves, they send New Country’s President’s underlings instead. That sly old thing’s style."

"Lin Xing, he certainly wants to provoke you into action, to probe the current state of your lineage, and then use the Immortal Court’s power to erode your heritage..."

While they had their intense discussion, Lin Xing was comforting an anxious Mo Xingye. He smiled and said, "Don’t be afraid."

He patted Mo Xingye’s head, like consoling an uneasy child, "Mo Xingye, I can feel your trust in me."

"The instant you received the news, you rushed back without regard for your own safety. Why make such a choice?"

Lin Xing’s eyes seemed to penetrate Mo Xingye’s consciousness, causing a stir in her sea of knowledge.

"Because my very existence makes you feel safe, a sense of security you haven’t felt in a long time."

Lin Xing’s words seemed to hold an invisible power, lightly sweeping over Mo Xingye’s consciousness, gradually calming her down.

"The destiny of this world is bound to be altered by me, and those who follow me into the new world need only trust me forever, just as you did today..."

Watching this scene, Yiyi in the sidelines felt a sense of awe at the growing strength of Lin Xing’s influence over the emotions and thoughts of others since he could reconstitute his Primordial Spirit.

...

When Mo Xingye came back to her senses, she heard another doctor patting her shoulder, asking with concern, "Dr. Mo, are you okay?"

Mo Xingye blinked, looking around at her environment, gradually realizing, "This is when I heard the news about New Country’s capture..."

Looking at her colleague, she remembered it was he who had come running over with a shocked face to tell her the news about Lin Xing’s capture.

"Am I back again?"

"This power, no matter how many times I experience it, feels like a miracle..."

Recalling Lin Xing’s final words, Mo Xingye felt her heart solidify at the moment.

Turning to her colleague’s caring gaze, Mo Xingye shook her head and said, "I’m fine, I’m just shocked. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen."
