<h2 ss="wp-block-heading">Chapter 5560</h2>
Lingxi stormed into the Third Pce, barging straight into the council chamber where the Third Pce Master resided.
The Third Pce Master was leisurely seated in the main seat. Upon seeing Lingxi’s intrusion, a fleeting, almost imperceptible panic crossed his face, but he quickly regained his arrogant and domineering demeanor.
“Third Pce Master, do you know your crime!”
Lingxi’s eyebrows furrowed, her beautiful eyes wide, and she shouted sharply.
The Third Pce Master, however, remained nonchnt, crossing his legs and leisurely saying, “Oh, Fourth Pce Master, what’s gotten into you? What crime have Imitted?”
“You used forbidden divine techniques without permission to trap David in the void passage. Isn’t that a crime?”<fn14ee> The source of th?s content is find?novel</fn14ee>
Lingxi said through gritted teeth.
The Third Pce Master burst intoughter: “Fourth Pce Master, don’t spout nonsense here. When did I use any forbidden techniques of the Divine Race? Do you have any evidence?”
“Evidence? Yunxiu saw it with her own eyes, and you still want to deny it?”
Lingxi trembled with anger.
The Third Pce Master, however, wore a shameless expression: “Yunxiu? Can you believe the words of a maid? Maybe she saw it wrong, or maybe you taught her to say it that way.”
“You…”
Lingxi was so angry that she couldn’t speak. She didn’t expect the Third Pce Master to be so unreasonable.
Seeing Lingxi rendered speechless with anger, the Third Pce Master became even more smug and began hurling vulgarities: “Fourth Pce Master, I think you’ve
taken a fancy to that David brat, which is why you’re so eager to stand up for him. But don’t waste your time; that brat is probably already ashes.
Instead of worrying about him, you should think about yourself. Why note with me? Maybe I can make your life in the temple morefortable.”
Hearing the Third Pce Master’s insults, Lingxi’s face turned ashen with rage. Her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging into her flesh.
But she knew she was no match for the Third Pce Master; forcing a fight would only bring further humiliation. “Third Pce Master, you will pay the
price for your actions!” Lingxi said coldly, barely suppressing her anger. The Third Pce Master, however, remained unperturbed and continued to mock, “Pay the price? With your abilities? Fourth Pce Master, you should save your breath. If you’re so capable, go and rescue David from the void passage, but I doubt you have the skill.”
Ling Xi took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. She knew this wasn’t the time for impulsiveness; the most urgent task was to find a way to save David.
“Third Pce Master, you’ll regret this!” Ling Xi said, turning and leaving the Third Pce. Back in her residence, Ling Xi racked her brains for a way to save David. She knew the void passage was extremely dangerous, especially one affected by the forbidden techniques of the Divine Race, which was filled with unknown dangers.
But she couldn’t just stand by and watch David fall into a desperate situation without helping him. Ling Xi first thought of some ancient texts of the Divine Race; perhaps they contained methods to break the effects of the forbidden techniques on the void passage.
She immediately went to the library of the Divine King’s Pce and began searching for clues among the vast sea of ancient texts. In the library, Lingxi meticulously flipped through the ancient books, her eyes barely blinking, afraid of missing any useful information.
Time ticked by, and beads of sweat covered her forehead, but she didn’t give up. No matter what, she couldn’t let David be trapped in that void passage.
Although she and David were not rted, since returning from the Sixth Heaven, Lingxi often thought of him. Sometimes she even dreamed of him, his image haunting her. Lingxi had always focused on cultivation and had never experienced romantic love.
But now her heart was in turmoil, especially when she heard that David was in danger. Her mind was in chaos, making it impossible to cultivate properly. She didn’t know if this could be considered affection. However, even if it cost her her life, she absolutely could not let David perish trapped in that void passage.
