Chapter 555 - 555 The Queen

555 The Queen

“Not at all. I’ve disturbed you, Temple Master.”

The Queen had come to ask Lin Qiye to send a message to the Heavenly God Palace for help. How could she be dissatisfied over such a small matter?

However, Lin Qiye didn’t mean to ignore the Queen.

Ever since he knew the demons had invaded Country Xu, he had felt a strong sense of danger.

Therefore, he did not dare to waste any time. Whenever he had the time, he would start to produce the high-tier awakening potion.

These were prepared for the cultivators and fiends under his command who had made more contributions.

After all, devout and powerful believers were rare, and Lin Qiye did not want to lose them easily.

In addition, he also needed to make sufficient preparations for the matter of supporting Country Xu.

“No problem. Let’s go.”

As soon as the two met, Lin Qiye made an inviting gesture.

“Huh?”

The Queen couldn’t help but be stunned.

What was going on? She hadn’t even said anything. Why did she have to leave?

Lin Qiye couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the Queen’s dumbfounded expression.

“You’re here to ask for my help to deal with the demons invading your land, aren’t you?”

“Y-yes, I am.”

The Queen nodded, not knowing what to do.

In front of Lin Qiye, she no longer had the authority she had in front of the ministers.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, Lin Qiye’s reputation was great, and he was also from the Heavenly God Palace.

Lin Qiye didn’t think as much as she did and said straightforwardly, “If that’s the case, what’s the point of delaying? Tell me the details on the way.”

The Queen was stunned. Could it be that he had decided to help her?

But wasn’t it a little too rash?

Doesn’t he need to ask the Heavenly God Palace about the situation?

Before the Queen could figure it out, Lin Qiye unleashed his domain and enveloped her. In the next second, the two appeared dozens of miles away.

“Teleportation!”

The Queen’s heart trembled when she sensed that she had been teleported to such a great distance.

Teleportation was something only a few Immortal Realm experts could do.

“You can point the way and tell me the specific situation of Country Xu.”

Lin Qiye looked at the Queen, who was in a daze and reminded her.

“Ah, okay.”

The Queen came back to her senses and was a little flustered.

It was the first time she had lost her composure since she was born.

In front of Lin Qiye, she didn’t put on the airs of a ruler. Instead, she was as honest as a girl next door.

She was in awe of Lin Qiye but also curious.

“If we go in this direction for another ten thousand miles, we will reach the capital.”

The capital of Country Xu was relatively close to the border between Shang Empire, so the journey wasn’t too far.

After pointing out the way forward, the Queen turned around and talked about the current situation and the information she had.

“Right now, demons are invading from the southwest. The city’s defense alone can’t stop the attack.”

At the mention of serious matters, the Queen’s expression immediately became grim. Her temperament had also changed completely, revealing a faint trace of majesty.

“How much information do you have on the demons?” Lin Qiye asked.

The Queen shook her head with a dejected expression.

“The demon attacks are too fierce. Wherever they go, the living beings are either slaughtered or infected. There is no news to be brought. Our spies can only investigate from far away and can’t get any useful information.”

“However, judging from the strength of the attack and the speed of their advance, they have at least a hundred Celestial Realm experts. Moreover, there are likely one or even more Earth Immortals among them.”

The worry on the Queen’s face was clear as day.

She raised her head and looked at Lin Qiye, a hint of panic in the depths of her eyes.

It was an emotion she would never dare to reveal in front of the ministers.

“Lord Holy Infant, the crisis has far exceeded the limits of what our country can bear. I hope you can contact the Heavenly God Palace and send reinforcements!”

The Queen’s tone was pleading.

Lin Qiye’s heart ached when he heard this. This woman was carrying the burden of the survival of an entire country.

She could have ignored the lives of the civilians to protect herself, but she did not do that. Instead, she chose the most difficult path.

Lin Qiye was impressed by her spirit of sacrifice.

However, he had no relationship with the Heavenly God Palace.

It was also destined that he would not get their support this time.

“I’m enough.”

Lin Qiye looked at the Queen with a calm expression.

The confidence in his eyes made the Queen unable to question him at all.

That’s right. In the face of hundreds of Celestial Level demons, he could still say words like “I’m enough” indifferently. Besides being full of confidence, how could he say it?

The two teleported one after another, and it didn’t take long for them to cross the city near the border.

At this moment, the Queen’s expression suddenly changed. She turned to Lin Qiye and said in a sorrowful and angry voice, “Lord Holy Infant, the demons have occupied 13 of our cities again!”

From the time the Queen came to ask for help to when Lin Qiye brought her back, less than a day had passed, and Country Xu had lost 13 more cities.

At this rate, the demons would probably reach the capital in a few days.

“Don’t worry. Tell me about your defense forces. I’ll try my best to protect the rest of your cities.”

Lin Qiye’s expression turned grim.

He had made sufficient preparations for the rescue mission.

Although he didn’t know the specific information about the demon camp, from the situation of the invasion, there were no Celestials.
