Chapter 567: Striking A Deal With Osamu
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Your parents are too crazy.” Yun Jiuge originally wondered which insane demonic clan wanted to seize the Source Power of Canglan Continent to rule the world. Little did she expect the truth to be otherwise.
“My King Father and Queen Mother were worried about me, so they’d try all ways and means to find a cure.” After being cursed at the age of 12, Osamu was sealed in an ice coffin by his father and mother for 3,000 years.
His father and mother went everywhere to seize power to help him resist the corrosion of the curse but were unable to withstand for long. He could die if they did not find another way.
“It looks like you’re very strong.” She did not know Osamu’s strength. But she greatly admired that he could face the problem of life and death in such a calm manner at a young age.
“Of course,” said Osamu, who exhibited strong self-confidence.
If he were not strong, how could the Ancient White Demonic Clan be so fearsome as to utilize immense magic power without scruples to put a curse on him?
“But you’re now cursed,” Zi Shang said rationally.
“I’m cursed by life, not dark demonic magic,” Osamu said softly. At the time, it was also to his credit that the Ancient White Demonic Clan perished.
“Little black horn, what’s dark demonic magic?” Little Dragon asked curiously.
“It’s the force of darkness,” Osamu said succinctly.
“Sounds powerful. Can I cultivate it too?” Little Dragon looked expectant.
“Yes, you can, as long as you seal your five senses and stay in the darkness for 3,000 years,” Osamu replied.
“3,000 years, that’s so miserable. It’s worse than what happened to Cute Little Baby,” said Little Dragon, looking at Osamu sympathetically.
Cute Little Baby often brought up its own experience of being trapped to frighten the children. Whoever misbehaved would end up being locked up like it did.
“Who’s Cute Little Baby?” Osamu asked with uncertainty.
“It’s my mother’s Weapon Spirit. It created Wanhua Spiritual Garden…” Little Dragon prattled to Osamu about his little buddy.
Osamu listened very carefully and would occasionally oblige with a smile when he heard some amusing incidents.
Yun Jiuge gave Zi Shang a glance and the two of them left the dining table together. They came to a corner and set up an Energy Barrier.
“The boy told the truth just now.” Zi Shang was still able to use his Demonic Eye even in his son’s dreamland.
“Then we’ve to help him lift the curse,” Yun Jiuge said in a low voice.
“But we’re not experts in this area.” The Ancient Black Demonic Clan could not achieve it, much less them.
“Have I ever told you that my Holy Essence can dispel all damages from curses?” Yun Jiuge said.
Each continent had its own characteristics. The source of Canglan Continent’s Holy Power was precisely dispelling, which was the reason why the Ancient Black Demonic Clan had designs on Canglan Continent.
Yun Jiuge had inherited this special feature. But she followed her mother’s will and told a lie, passing off the dispelling as Holy Light.
No one doubted her because after she became the Goddess, she had been acting the part.
“You’ve not mentioned it before. Don’t tell me you’re going to give your Holy Essence to Osamu?” Zi Shang asked Yun Jiuge with shocked eyes as if he were facing a madman.
“I can still take back the Holy Essence after I help him get rid of the curse…,” replied Yun Jiuge, who did plan to do so.
“That is, if he’s willing to return it.”
Zi Shang suddenly interrupted Yun Jiuge’s words and said, “Think about the evil Ao Ge. Do you think that their Ancient Black Demonic Clan people will keep their word? I’m afraid that once you give him the Holy Essence, he’ll immediately put Canglan Continent under his belt.”
Yun Jiuge did not refute Zi Shang’s words, because this was also what she was worried about. If she took the initiative to hand over the Holy Essence, it would be difficult to get it back.
“Rather than giving it to the Ancient Black Demonic Clan, I might as well use it to lure Fan Yin to take the bait. As long as a malignant tumor like him is eliminated, our Canglan Continent will be united as one. Then we no longer have to be afraid of an attack from the Ancient Black Demonic Clan,” Zi Shang said.
“Even if we kill Fan Yin, there’ll be countless others like Fan Yin appearing. No one can resist the lure of power. If Fan Yin can betray us to lure the Ancient Black Demonic Clan, then there’ll be others who’ll do the same thing.
We need a reliable ally to bring us into the Galactic Federation. Otherwise, sooner or later we’ll become fodder for the Tianwai Demonic Clan.”
Yun Jiuge had done a divination. Countless continents had been destroyed in the hands of Tianwai Demonic Clan. Shutting the continent off would not solve the problem.
They had to step forward and become a member of the Galactic Federation in order to receive protection.
“Even so, we don’t have to choose Osamu!” Zi Shang still did not agree.
“The fact that Long’er can be friends with Osamu means they have a destiny. I’ll take responsibility if I choose wrongly.” Yun Jiuge did not want to leave a terrible mess for her son.
After a moment of silence, Zi Shang said, “It’s a matter of great importance. We don’t have to rush to reach a verdict. Let’s first observe Osamu’s Demonic Grade and then see if he has a say in the clan.”
Yun Jiuge and Zi Shang reached an agreement and was just about to return to the long table when Wan Sha’s voice suddenly rang out in the dream,” Your Highness, quickly wake up. Something has happened.”
Yun Jiuge quickly opened her eyes and saw a red-clad maid kneeling next to her while holding Wan Sha’s Transmission Rune.
“What’s going on?” Yun Jiuge picked up the Transmission Rune and asked.
“News came from the Demon Forest that Blooming Flowering Tree has been taken to the primitive plane of existence,” Wan Sha’s insistent voice rang out.
“Who has taken him?” Yun Jiuge sat up at once. Zi Shang also came out from under his son’s blanket.
“According to what his trusted guard said, the Human-faced King Peach pretended that he had something to report to him and lured him to the dungeon. Then he suddenly blew it open to sweep him away. The Human-faced King Peach even left a message saying that to save him, you must go to the primitive plane of existence on the day of the full moon,” Wan Sha said.
“Damn it.” Yun Jiuge clenched her fists. Fan Yin must have used the Demonic Blood Flower on the Human-faced King Peach.
“Fan Yin has been planning for today for 2,000 years. If we do what he wants, then we ‘ll be put in a passive position,” Zi Shang said.
“I know.” Fan Yin must have had a special significance in choosing the night of the full moon. She had to have a trump card to catch Fan Yin off guard.
“Why don’t we lead Osamu to Fan Yin?” Zi Shang immediately thought of a solution.
“How are we supposed to do that?” Osamu did not look like a fool.
“Just say that Fan Yin can help him lift the curse. Anyway, Fan Yin has always liked to do such things,” Zi Shang said.
“Let’s give it a try!” Yun Jiuge could not think of a better idea anyway.
“Let’s go talk to Osamu properly while he’s still here.” Zi Shang got into his son’s bed.
“Let’s go!” Yun Jiuge entered the dreamland once again. Her son and Osamu were still gorging themselves with food at the table, not realizing that both Yun Jiuge and Zi Shang had even stepped aside.
“Osamu, there’s something I want to talk to you about,” Yun Jiuge sat down and said.
“Auntie, please go ahead.” Osamu politely put down the cup and met Yun Jiuge’s eyes straight on.
“There’s a man in our Canglan Continent who is exceptionally good at lifting curses. Would you like to look for him and give it a try?” Yun Jiuge said.
“How good is he?” Osamu did not get excited just because of Yun Jiuge’s words. He still maintained a calm appearance.
“There’s roughly 70 percent certainty. But this man isn’t easy to deal with, so I need your help,” Yun Jiuge said sincerely.
