Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 396 - 221: Opening the Rift

Carelessly, the Divine Power overflowed, blasting a wall into dust.

Li Ang grinned, knowing he would have to deal with the landlord again.

The Power of Nature dispersed, causing a cabinet to start sprouting.

Arcane Energy exploded in the air with energy sparks, making the light flicker continuously.

Li Ang shook his head, arranging the golem in the living room into a protective barrier, and began his operations within it.

This way, the uncontrolled power during matter annihilation all impacted on the metal shell of the golem, although the floor and part of the ceiling still suffered.

In fact, he felt he had controlled it quite well, but at this level of power, even a slight slip was a thunderstorm.

He tried approximately three times. With High-tier Magic, completely annihilating the matter and isolating external objects was easier than imagined, except for a bit of spirit resisting the magic infiltration.

Li Ang thought for a moment and decided to use witch’s abilities to assist in dragging away these spirits.

However, at this moment, controlling these spirits was much harder than usual.

Unlike the Spirituality in a single entity, when the residing matter is annihilated, the spirit loses its original spiritual constraints and disperses as a free spirit. At this moment, it seems connected to the entire world.

Trying to make them act according to one’s will feels like opposing the world itself.

Having no choice, Li Ang raised his left hand.

From some time ago, he deliberately avoided using his left hand for Spiritual Manipulation.

Since the start of demonization, the Spiritual Manipulation Ability through it seems enhanced, but the enhanced result is unpredictable, often verging on losing control.

His left hand moved gently, blowing the residual spirit away, and with a clap of thunder, a rift split open.

Surging magic power rushed into Li Ang’s living room. He hurriedly used the Holy Staff to block and guide this magic power to stabilize it, then summoned the Wind Elemental Spirit, moving the heavy golem bit by bit into the rift.

Using magic power to create an anchor on the golem, Li Ang released the maintenance of matter annihilation, and air, along with new spirits, filled in, quickly closing the dimensional rift.

"Phew."

Sighing in relief, he looked at the mess in his home, feeling his previous efforts were still in vain.

Oh well, I’ll talk to the landlord tomorrow morning.

Negotiating with him one last time, it should be the final time in this life, to completely bid farewell to the past life.

...

On departure day, Elaphia was at the port with the Order Flame Corps members waiting.

Though she brought her team, she alone floated high near the rail of the Weapon God, looking down from above.

The members of Star Flower Travel Corps arriving with them had a smirk on their lips, looking at Li Ang: "Why don’t you go soothe the young lady? Otherwise, we’ll be stuck here all morning."

Li Ang nodded towards him.

By himself, he walked along the plank to the side of the ship.

Seeing Li Ang approach, Elaphia’s frowning face slightly relaxed, but soon she snorted and turned her head away.

Just as Li Ang was about to say something, she had already flown away.

Seeing the captain no longer blocking, the Order Flame Corps members and servants immediately began preparing for departure. It seemed they were used to this sort of thing.

Li Ang’s team members also boarded the deck. Having been on this ship before, when the servant remarked that the young lady still arranged the rooms as usual, they naturally knew where to rest.

As the Flying Airship started, it swiftly entered the dark sky of the Demon Disaster Realm, leaving the Holy City shrouded in beams of light behind.

Though they had seen this scene countless times, this time they were accompanied by teammates.

Dorothy stretched lazily: "Even though before it felt boring not being able to participate in various things, wishing to leave sooner, leaving like this still brings a sense of separation melancholy."

"We’ll come back," Li Ang said, "The trip to the Holy City wasn’t originally planned; it was all the Crimson Demon that caused the diversion."

Zoe came over, holding Li Ang’s hand, her curly chestnut hair fluttering in the high wind.

Her eyes filled with emotion glanced at Li Ang’s left arm and she raised her head, smiling: "I’ll do my best. Next time we return, we’ll be the Legendary Sky Cavalry."

The other three didn’t have any overly ambitious goals. Looking at them, Li Ang felt their sincerity.

"Alright then, put your things away, and let’s start training."

Having learned to open a dimensional rift, Li Ang didn’t have much to store. The Star Flower Travel Corps’ temporarily unused items and funds were all with him. After organizing in the cabin, he and Dorothy went to the public lounge.

Having keenly sensed some anomalies, neither dared to be alone with her, worried that the other three might be spying anytime.

Dorothy commented: "If you just say clearly who’s the most beautiful, it’ll be fine."

"Why?"

Facing Li Ang’s question, she didn’t respond.

Could it be that the competition among these four had some real significance?

Putting the question aside for now, Li Ang, leaning on the Orichalcum, said: "Come, start your practice, the Divine Branch has grown, which energy do you want to access first?"

"Let me see," Dorothy summoned the Flower Vine, "Judging from their feeling, the craving for Ether, Arcane Energy, and Natural Energy is somewhat lower."

"Both are indeed lower?"

Li Ang was a bit surprised; he assumed these purer magic energies would be more desirable to the Demon-Born Flower.

"I feel because these pure magic energies produce effects similar to the Branch of Prosperity, its craving isn’t very noticeable." Dorothy thought for a moment and said.

"Then choose between the Light and Dark Elements first."

Looking at the energy surging at the top of the staff, filled with creation-signifying light and destruction-tinged darkness, which were tightly bound by the Treasure Staff, Li Ang said: "Start with the Light Element. I’m afraid the Dark Element might bring a situation to the Demon-Born Flower that’s hard for you to handle."

Dorothy nodded in agreement.

Immediately, Li Ang let the core of the Orichalcum produce a large amount of Light Element, directing it to the Demon-Born Flower Vine.

The white flower’s Sword Core swayed instantly, the petals opening and closing, greedily devouring the Light Element.

The bright light, accompanied by tiny sparks, flowed into the Flower Vine, and the whole vine looked like a lit ribbon, Dorothy shivering all over, while Li Ang noticed her rainbow-colored hair and eyes took on a lustre.

This was not an illusion.

The Light Element indeed caused the other colors in her rainbow-colored eyes and hair to fade, leaving gold, white, and pale blue of the Light Element as primary.

A flower bud seemingly forged from energy descended from the light, blooming amidst white lightning, with the stamen completely turned to energy, resembling intertwining ribbons.

With the new bloom of this Flower Vine, Dorothy’s Star Crystal Branch, Dragon Blood Branch, Branch of Prosperity, and Divine Branch simultaneously rose from her back, lively swaying as if celebrating the bloom of this new flower.

"Hmm, how about that?" Dorothy proudly caressed these flowers.

"Don’t get too full of yourself, isn’t this to be expected?"

Li Ang turned his head, seeing ALulu standing not far off, watching this scene.

Just as he was about to ask Xiaoniu about anything, she turned and left.

After the Weapon God left the Demon Disaster Realm, Li Ang recognized the route just by the few islands they passed, realizing they were heading towards Mengze Island.

Though still sulking, Elaphia fully helped Li Ang as asked.

During meals, and occasional encounters, Blondie Douding wouldn’t talk to him, simply doing her own tasks with a calm face, which made the four young girls a bit uncomfortable.

Upon reaching Mengze Island, Elaphia even hurriedly issued an eviction order, having the servants take them away.

"Phew," getting off the ship, Zoe breathed a sigh of relief, "Eraphia being angry was quite scary."

"Only a bit? You really are fearless." Dorothy shook her head.

Just as they finished speaking, Elaphia descended from the sky in front of them.

"Eek!" Zoe jumped two paces back, hiding behind Li Ang.

Blondie Douding didn’t look at the four girls, only speaking directly to Li Ang: "Next time we meet, I’ll test you, get ready, you small fry."

Having said that, she transformed into golden light, returning to the ship.
