Elemental Light Mage

Chapter 469 Challenge

"Humph, that's nothing. I've encountered so many bad things."

A disdainful smile appeared on Xi Yeming's lips, as if he was sneering at these so-called bad luck.

When talking about this topic, Xi Yeming's interest was suddenly piqued. There was a gleam in his eyes and he began to talk about his experiences incessantly.

"During the most important entrance examination in my life, I was actually tricked by my biological parents! They sealed my innate magic, and the result is predictable. I almost didn't get into Kilgore College." Xi Yeming's voice was a little excited, and his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was still indignant about what happened at that time.

"In order to get some credits with great difficulty, I worked hard to participate in various competitions and hope to win awards. However, those who used the backdoor easily cut in line and snatched away the opportunity that I worked so hard for." Xi Yeming clenched his fists unconsciously, and his breathing became a little rapid.

"Another time, I just went for a walk, but I accidentally ran into the attic. Who would have thought that there was a sleeping dragon hiding there! I was almost swallowed by her." There was a hint of fear in Xi Yeming's tone, as if the scene was still vivid in his mind.

"What's even more outrageous is that during the exam, I actually ran into a magic trial set up by others and was forced to kill each other with my classmates. That feeling was so terrible..." Xi Yeming's voice gradually became low, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

Chun listened quietly to Xi Yeming's story. Although she didn't understand the meaning of many of his words, she could feel the difficulties and setbacks he had experienced from his tone and expression.

She sighed softly, then lowered her head and slowly leaned on Xi Yeming's shoulder, as if wanting to give him some comfort.

"But even though I've encountered so many unfair things, I've resolved them one by one and am still alive today." Xi Yeming's tone suddenly became firm, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if to cheer himself up.

"Yeah, now that we've come this far, how can we give up so easily?"

It didn't seem like these words were meant for Chun to hear. Chun could also hear the meaning behind Xi Yeming's words, so she didn't say anything more.

Tsubaki asked softly, "What keeps you going all the way?"

The girl who lived deep in the barrier had no idea of ​​the danger that Xi Yeming mentioned. She was very curious about how Xi Yeming had managed to get through it after experiencing so many setbacks.

Chun's question is like a fish hook, fishing out the deep secret in the sea called "Xi Ye Ming".

He originally planned to use the word "persistence" as his answer, but at that moment, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and the word "persistence" turned into "obsession" the moment it came out of his mouth.

"Obsession?"

Chun repeated Xi Yeming's answer softly, as if savoring the meaning of the word.

Then, she raised her head, her eyes fell directly on Xi Yeming's face, and said slowly: "Then you are really a greedy person."

Xi Yeming didn't seem to be angered by Chun's words. Instead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile: "Am I so bad in your eyes?"

Seeing this, Tsubaki straightened up quickly and explained, "No, that's not what I meant. I just can feel the endless desire deep in your heart."

The word "desire" was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Xi Yeming's heart.

The smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by an expression of indifference and vigilance.

Xi Yeming stared at Chun's eyes closely, as if he wanted to see her true thoughts through her gaze.

"You seem to be very resistant to what I said?" Chun noticed Xi Yeming's change, and there was a hint of doubt in her tone.

Xi Yeming was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Because the word 'desire' reminds me of some unpleasant past events."

His voice was low and suppressed, as if it was a memory he didn't want to mention.

-

"How can it be the holy will of "desire"? "

"Can this also become the Ten Wills of the Holy Will?"

"Is there something else going on?"

"Where are the Ten Sacred Wills of the previous generations?"

"All destroyed, how is that possible?!"

"Hey, that's him, the new Ten Wills of the Holy Will."

"It is said that when he became one of the Ten Holy Wills, all the previous Holy Wills had died."

"The word 'desire' is too scary."

"Why, why is it "desire"? "

-

Simply because of the word "desire", people at the junction of the worlds began to sow the seeds of doubt towards Xi Yeming.

Tsubaki said sincerely, "Then I'm sorry for bringing up your sad story."

Xi Yeming smiled calmly and said, "It's okay. It's not something that can't be talked about."

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt halt. Communication would consume physical strength and energy, so both sides tacitly took a break and waited for Hiiragi's arrival.

In the corner of Xi Yeming's eye, it seemed as if a golden shadow rushed past like lightning and disappeared in a flash.

"Huh?" Xi Yeming couldn't help but let out a surprised cry, his attention was attracted by this strange shadow.

"What's wrong?" Chun, who was standing by, asked curiously.

Xi Yeming calmed himself down and looked towards the corner. He saw nothing except an empty corner.

"Strange, am I seeing things?" Xi Yeming murmured to himself, his heart full of doubts.

But at this moment, the voice of Hades suddenly sounded in his mind: "Hey boy, she's almost outside."

"what?"

Xi Yeming's heart tightened, and he quickly turned around and looked towards the gate.

Seeing Xi Yeming talking to himself again, Chun became more curious, so she asked, "I've always been curious. You seem to talk to yourself sometimes. Who are you talking to?"

Facing Chun's questioning, Xi Yeming's mind flashed with various thoughts. He knew that the four sisters in the magic trial barrier were the ones who guarded Hephaestus, the god of forging, and maybe they also knew something about Hades.

After careful consideration, Xi Yeming finally made up his mind and told the truth: "Actually, I was talking to Hades, the god of the underworld."

Hades said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, how can you just tell others about my existence?"

Tsubaki confirmed it again in confusion: "Hades, the mechanical god of the underworld?"

With a loud bang, a dent was smashed into the door of the treasure house.

The two could only give up the topic of Hades and focus on the dilemma at hand.

A series of loud noises were accompanied by more dents, and the door deformed much faster than Xi Yeming had imagined.
