CHAPTER 405: CHAPTER 333: THE CORRUPTED LAN YUE (SUBSCRIPTION REQUESTED)

Lette looked at the booklet Jenny handed over, feeling a hundred times unwilling.

He had a premonition that this booklet was full of trouble.

But some things are just like this, unavoidable.

Although the weeds in the courtyard had been pulled out, outside the courtyard, the Corrupt Lady was eyeing it fiercely, thinking of turning his little courtyard into ashes.

Indeed, he had to take a look.

Lette let out a meaningless wail and snatched the booklet from Jenny’s hand.

He kept flipping through it, his face full of disdain.

Sure enough, it recorded some things about the Corrupt Lady, but the information was severely inaccurate.

There was no helping it, though.

Whether it was the Tower of Truth or the Truth Workshop, they were actually wild organizations with little connection to the Gate of Truth.

They weren’t under the Gate of Truth at all. Although fervent, they had no formal status.

As for a major figure like the Corrupt Lady at the apostle level, they hadn’t even heard of her.

It was only when the Sky Sage failed to enter the Nether Sea after death and was stranded on the Nether Beach, by chance meeting a true member from within the Gate of Truth, that a connection was barely made.

And the Sky Sage, for the sake of his own resurrection, deceived these people at the Truth Workshop.

He made them work tirelessly, setting up bases quietly developing in every city of the First Empire, ultimately aiming to place the Corrupted Egg in the Holy Light Cathedral of each city.

Yet, to resurrect, the Sky Sage seemed to need the lives of these Truth Workshop members as sacrifices.

To prevent these mages from realizing it, the Sky Sage further processed, disguised, and adjusted the information conveyed to the Truth Workshop.

This led to the teachings and records therein being utterly distorted, losing any reference value.

If one were to prepare according to the booklet’s description of the Corrupt Lady, it would likely lead to a big problem.

However, when Lette flipped to the last few pages, his face gradually turned grim.

"The empire’s collapse is actually their desired outcome?"

Lette hurriedly turned to the next page, and the content on it caused his eyes to widen.

According to the Truth Workshop’s records in the booklet, to revive the Sky Sage as a corrupt family member, an external condition needed to be met.

That condition was for the empire to enter a state of life and death ambiguity.

In other words, a situation where the empire could be said to have fallen or not, both uncertain.

This was an essential condition to attract the Power of Corruption.

Because corruption itself, only appears in a state of life and death ambiguity.

"It shouldn’t be... corruption should be a form after death, right? Why is it the form of life and death ambiguity?

Not dead yet, so how to talk about corruption?"

Hearing Lette muttering to himself like this, Jenny leaned closer.

"The corruption you understand might not be comprehensive. Many things have already begun to corrupt before death.

The most common, for example, are wounds not treated in time, or half-dead old trees.

I actually think corruption is a state of life and death intertwined and decayed.

Because what’s utterly dead won’t corrupt, right?

Absolute life and absolute death will not result in corruption.

Corruption should appear in the moment between life and death, when death is not thorough, and life not fully dispersed."

Jenny’s words exploded in Lette’s ears like a thunderclap.

His face became extremely grim, and he reached for the Divine Artifact·Corrosive Divine Staff, frantically using spiritual power to explore this Divine’s Origin Power.

After a while, he stopped with a grayish face.

"Damn, you’re right, it’s like this. Initially, my understanding of corruption was flawed!

Bad, bad, bad!"

Suddenly realizing something, Lette grabbed the pager on his waist and started calling frantically.

"Elf Empire, Elf Empire, please respond!"

"This is the Elf Empire!"

"I am Lette, quickly bring Lilith over here, I have something urgent to discuss with her!"

"Is it Lord Lette, I am Princess Rosadina. Lady Lilith is not in the combat room, she went to the Life Leaf Library."

Lette hung up the communication and turned to Jenny.

"You... what’s wrong with you? What did the booklet say that caused such a big reaction?"

"That Siris has a problem, I must rush back as soon as possible. Take good care of Emily for me, and if she wakes up, don’t head to the Elf Kingdom for now.

Something terrifying might happen over there."

After giving instructions, Lette suddenly soared into the sky, then turned into an arc of light and shot towards the Elf Empire.

However, the distance was truly too far.

Between the territory of the First Empire and the Elf Empire lies a Heavenly Chasm, vast grasslands, and dense forests and mountains.

Even with Lette flying at full speed, it would take quite a while.

"Hope I can make it in time! Hope Lilith can stop Siris. No, no, no, if she tries to intervene, things might get worse!"

Lette flew at a rapid pace, and soon he could already see the capital of the Elf Empire in the distance.

Just as he was preparing to speed up again, suddenly a dense Power of Corruption shot up into the sky, dyeing it blue and purple.

"Tsk, am I still a step too late?"

Under the influence of this power, the sky rapidly dimmed, the sun disappeared, replaced by a blue moon.

When this blue Corrupted Moon appeared, everything around began to change, decay, and expand outward.

At this critical moment, an even denser pitch-black color surged into the sky, filled with malice, and forced the Blue Moon Light to a halt, containing the crisis within the smallest range.

"Phew!"

Seeing this, Lette secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Thankfully Lilith has regained her strength, thankfully I made a safety net, leaving her in place as a safeguard."

However, in the sky, the blue-black power seemed to be corroding the pitch-black malice.

Lette slightly frowned: "As expected of an Angel Envoy who gained power from the Indescribable, she can actually use corruption to erode Lilith’s malice.

If given enough time, she might really break through the defense.

But too bad, too bad, I won’t give you this time and opportunity.

Corrupt Lady, is it? Since you came, don’t think of leaving.

My courtyard here lacks fertilizer, I’ll just use you as compost!

Also, let this group of trash understand that a courtyard with a master is not a place for any random cat or dog to enter!"

Light surged all over Lette’s body, and with a leap, he dived into the pitch-black Barrier, braving the Blue Moon Light, rushing towards the capital of the Elf Kingdom.

Meanwhile, on the central island of the Saint Lake of the Elves, the Barrier and Illusion Technique surrounding the Ancient Tree of Life collapsed with a boom.

The entire Ancient Tree of Life was covered with pale flowers, which then began to fall like snowflakes.

Its blooming season was over.
