My Master Disconnected Yet Again (Part 3)

Chapter 426: A Plane's Declaration of War

Shen Ying was eating at a rapid speed. Perhaps it was because she had already missed two meals. Within 20 minutes, a table full of food had disappeared. All that was left was the sauces on the various plates. Yi Qing cleared the empty plates from the table and replaced them with freshly cooked dishes. Then, he returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.

Shen Ying was making the food look too delicious. Lonemoon, who had been sitting across from her for a long time, could not help but reach out for some with his chopsticks. Just before the food entered his mouth, he felt a sharp pain in his cheek. For the umpteenth time, he screamed, "Ow! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

Lonemoon tossed his chopsticks aside and rubbed his swollen face. He emanated a cold aura as he turned to glare at Shen Ying indignantly. "You freaking knew that I would not be able to heal these wounds using immortal sorcery. Why couldn't you control your strength?" He wondered if he would be disfigured for life.

Shen Ying swallowed her mouthful of food, looked at him icily and tutted. "If I had not done that, the invaders would not have left your body. Given your skills, you would not have been able to get rid of them for the next 500 years. What's more, what right do you have – as a weak chicken who could not even fend off invaders – to ask me to control my strength?"

Lonemoon, the weak chicken: "..."

The Celestial Emperors, weak chickens: "..."

The Skyfiend, weak chickens: "..."

She made absolute sense. They were struggling to find something to say in retort.

"Exalted... Exalted Goddess!" Seeing that Lonemoon's swollen face was flushing even more from being embarrassed, Little Black could not help but step in. "What exactly were those things? How did they take control of our bodies so easily?" What they went through did not feel like a possession – it felt more like something else had entered their body so that even their primordial spirits were affected. The longer those things stayed in their bodies, the weaker their primordial spirit felt. Although they were alright now, each of them could feel that their cultivation levels had deteriorated slightly.

"Given your intellect, I find it hard to explain." Shen Ying finally looked up at the rows of people staring at her. Her expression was hard. "That's why there is no need for you to know."

The crowd: "..." That was piercing.

Lonemoon tried to adjust the swells on his face so that he could talk. Facing Shen Ying, he said, "What's going to happen next, then?" She had already dealt with those invaders who suddenly entered their world, but the mushroom world still existed.

The hand that Shen Ying had been using to scoop her rice paused in midair as her expression fell. A moment later, she thought about something and said in a low voice, "For now, they do not have the strength to do another invasion. Seal that little world and break off any connections it might have to any other world."

Lonemoon nodded. "Although those people had come from a whole other plane, for a long time nobody had realized that they were here. They had probably already taken full control of that world. Now, the only thing they could do was seal up that world so that the rest of the small worlds did not get affected."

Everybody else looked confused for a long while before they finally began to understand.

"Exalted Goddess, you mean to say that those things came from the lower realm?!"

"Such things actually exist in the lower realm. Even we were almost defeated by their technique. Then other realms..."

One by one, their faces turned pale as they thought about how serious the problem was.
