Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 858: Chapter 401: Mockery

Due to being unable to go out, Li Yunyan, who stayed at home all the time, didn’t bother to take care of herself.

Her hair was a bit messy, with faint dark circles under her eyes. She looked somewhat disheveled, but still, her youthful beauty was hard to conceal.

As siblings, Li Yelai and Li Yunyan did have some resemblance in their eyebrows and eyes. If Li Yelai used the Reversal Well, the similarity would probably be a bit higher.

At the very least, those colleagues who have seen her work photos all gave her a high evaluation.

Perhaps it’s the beauty created by distance. Anyway, in Li Yelai’s impression, his sister was an awkward creature, laughing slyly while playing games and scratching her feet. It seems like they are describing a different person?

But in that future, the girl before him, his last blood relative,

was mercilessly consumed by the flames. Her skin was scorched, blood evaporated, bones carbonized, walking towards the end in an extremely painful form.

Yes, during the Causality Strike, in the future vision Li Yelai saw.

The future self held two charred corpses.

Among them was Li Yunyan… that was the sister he watched grow up, Li Yelai couldn’t be mistaken.

In that future, the self… a generational Human Champion, ultimately lost the last of his family.

He returned to the Giant City at the fastest speed, only to see the charred bodies of his friends and relatives under the ruins.

They had tried hard to resist the enemy, but ultimately couldn’t reverse the battle, consumed by the overwhelming black flames.

A petite girl worked hard to stand in front of her, trying to block the malice for her, but still couldn’t stop the terrifying tongues of fire.

Both turned into charred bodies…

Too late, everything was too late…

Endless regret and despair melted away his last reason. It nurtured the final madness!

All at that moment, crossing the river of time, struck Li Yelai’s mind.

Whether it was the effect of the Causality Strike,

or the last scream of that future self to Li Yelai,

it made Li Yelai feel a bit uneasy when he saw Li Yunyan. His heart seemed to be torn apart.

The girl in front of him seemed to have turned into that disfigured charred body.

He suppressed the unease in his heart, saying: “Sister, are you doing well recently?”

“What could happen to me? You are fighting hard in the Immortal Palace, it should be me asking you! Can your Soul Well still be repaired? If it can’t be repaired, it’s fine… staying in the logistics team is safer.” Li Yunyan said.

From a selfish standpoint, she wished Li Yelai wouldn’t go to the battlefield but become a logistics team member.

After all, there had been discussions on the forums suggesting that Li Yelai’s Soul Well had problems. He might not be able to continue advancing.

In this situation, he couldn’t fight at all, so it was better to stay behind…

“My Soul Well will be repaired soon.” Li Yelai responded, explaining that there was a mysterious feather inside his Soul Well repairing it. This information was unknown to the outside world.

Li Yunyan was silent for a moment, nodded slightly: “That’s good, stronger is good…”

Li Yelai looked at Li Yunyan strangely, then said: “Sister, the Jing Family won’t disturb you anymore.”

“I know, your reputation in the Giant City is big now. Although the outside world thinks your Soul Well is damaged and may not be able to advance. But if they make any moves against you and your family, it will cause public outrage.” Li Yunyan responded, “And, I’m already an official personnel, they can only bribe me, if they dare to use force, it’s really courting death!”

“Unless they can make me unknowingly harbor some Divine Son… but if they really had that power, they would have done it already.”

“There are so many Taboo Items in the world, who knows what effects they might have?” Li Yelai shook his head, “But now, even if they have means, they don’t dare anymore. That’s one less trouble. But our relationship with the Jing Family has been exposed.”

“That’s nothing, we never planned to acknowledge kinship.” Li Yunyan shrugged, “We are not interested in the Jing Family’s property.”

“Yes, also, I finally killed Ye Han…” Whenever Li Yelai thinks of this, he feels a bit happier.

“I know that, it’s a relief.” Li Yunyan smiled.

Ye Han’s deeds had already been exposed on the forums.

Killing for treasure, killing to silence, later it even exposed that he had caused the deaths of some young strong family members.

Rumors claimed he had many confidants, including some who were already married.

With these revelations, the Jing Family, who had planned to form an alliance with Ye Han, was heavily criticized.

As for the Ye Family from Kunlun Giant City, as Ye Han’s original family, naturally they were also affected.

Even though Ye Han had long left the Ye Family, those victims’ families wouldn’t let it go.

They’re still entangled in disputes now.

At that time, what Li Yelai lacked the most was an excuse to take action.

As the official captain, he couldn’t attack an external family Spiritual Ability User for no reason. And the Church in the shadows also found it difficult to kill this Great Destiny-like human doll.

But Ye Han himself created an excuse and delivered it to Li Yelai.

There was nothing more to say… Li Yelai was acting on behalf of heaven.

“Meanwhile, I have acquired Ye Han’s Divine Demon Stele. Although it can’t strengthen others’ curses, it doesn’t possess that type of offensive ability. But I can still suppress curses for you.” Li Yelai smiled.

This ability was overly important for Li Yunyan and the dolls!

As long as within the range of the Divine Demon Stele, they could interact with outsiders normally.
