"Unspeakable Thing?"

Although Lin Ziyi had read some Cthulhu works and was particularly familiar with the various tentacles within them...

Familiarity aside, he had never actually seen such things in reality and didn't understand their specific forms.

Tushan Lingling noticed Lin Ziyi's confusion and cautiously added:

"Unspeakable, indescribable, incomprehensible... If you have the chance later, Master, you'll understand if you search for it on a search engine..."

Lin Ziyi gazed at Tushan Lingling's delicate and beautiful face, thinking to himself, If I have a search engine, why would I search for that thing?

He didn't dwell on the matter. Instead, he reached out, pinched Tushan Lingling's chin, and flashed a mischievous smile:

"Master is too common a title. Can you use a different one?"

Tushan Lingling fluttered her shy eyelashes and asked, "A different... title? How about... Husband?"

"Oh, not bad!" Lin Ziyi's eyes lit up, but he still shook his head.

"This title is still a bit ordinary... Why not add 'Brother' after Husband?"

"Husband... Brother?"

Tushan Lingling tried calling him that and found the title surprisingly smooth.

Her shyness intensified, and her little mouth turned even sweeter, "Understood, I'll call you Husband Brother from now on~"

"Mmm, perfect!"

Lin Ziyi exclaimed, then suddenly thought of something and asked the System in his mind:

"System, if I leave the auction house now, will I return to my original location?"

The System's understanding voice quickly responded:

[The host can choose the nearest city for teleportation!]

"That's quite convenient..." Lin Ziyi said, though he still instructed the System:

"But I'm curious why I appeared on that plain... Let's go back and take a look first."

Now that he had the protection of the level ninety-five Tushan Lingling, he no longer had to fear those aggressive light cavalry.

[Ding—The host is about to leave the Misty Auction House... Please prepare.]

As the System's voice sounded, Lin Ziyi suddenly felt his hand being tightly grasped by a soft, tender palm.

The next moment, a warm, brilliant light instantly enveloped his entire body!

Lin Ziyi felt the scenery around him shift, but without the floating, dizzying sensation he'd experienced when entering the Misty Auction House.

In just a moment, the surrounding black mist dissipated, and Lin Ziyi found himself back on the plain, with sand and grass blowing in the wind!

As soon as he and Tushan Lingling appeared, they heard the clanging of armor and weapons nearby.

Just as Lin Ziyi expected, soldiers were indeed guarding the spot where he had disappeared earlier!

Lin Ziyi looked at the dozen or so soldiers standing ready around him, noticing the hostile eyes beneath their faceplates!

Before Lin Ziyi could speak, one of the soldiers shouted loudly:

"Who are you people? Why have you appeared within our borders! Are you spies sent by the Martial Soul Hall?"

Lin Ziyi had no intention of answering their questions, as he couldn't explain why he was here himself.

He had no idea what place this was...

Lin Ziyi put on a bewildered and harmless expression: "Could you tell me first, which empire and what place this is?"

Although Lin Ziyi asked sincerely, the soldier captain felt the other party was toying with him!

Doesn't know what place this is? What a joke!

As a Soul Master who can appear and disappear without a trace, he still doesn't know this is a military stronghold of the Barack Kingdom? How laughable!

The soldier captain felt the young man before him was provoking him, or else he took him for an idiot!

Thinking this, the soldier captain couldn't help but sneer:

"Since you're unwilling to reveal your identity, I'll treat you as spies!"

Saying this, the soldier captain raised his right hand and waved it forward fiercely!

The soldiers, who had been itching for a fight, immediately thrust their gleaming silver spears towards Lin Ziyi!

However, regarding the beautiful Fox Demon beside him, they tacitly refrained from attacking her...

Lin Ziyi sneered, "Lingling."

Hearing the young man's eager call, Tushan Lingling's fluffy white tail couldn't help but wag twice.

However, facing the surrounding attacks, her eyes instantly turned cold.

A majestic torrent of Soul Power, like a white tornado, swept out, directly sending the dozen or so soldiers spinning and flying away!

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the beast-eared woman, the soldier captain's face was already covered in the "insects" known as fear!

Their general knew this young man might be a Soul Master and specifically sent him, a Soul King, to keep things under control.

He had initially thought that even if a Soul King at level fifty-something couldn't defeat the opponent, he should at least be able to exchange a few blows.

However, the young man didn't display any particular strength at the moment.

But the terrifying aura emanating from the woman beside him made every single hair on his body tremble uncontrollably!

Let alone exchanging a few blows, just controlling his bladder to avoid soiling himself would be a struggle!

Who exactly was this woman? What power did she hail from?

What purpose could such a powerful individual have for entering their Barack Kingdom?

Lin Ziyi's smile deepened as he looked at the soldier's ashen face.

It really feels good to borrow power from others! Hmm, by 'borrowing power,' I mean acting tough by association...

"Can you tell me now what exactly this place is?" Lin Ziyi asked, a smile playing on his lips.

Hearing the youth ask the same question again, the soldier finally believed that the other party genuinely didn't know.

He paused for a moment, his voice trembling slightly as he replied:

"Th-this is the Lima Plain in the Barack Kingdom... and that grand city in the distance is the strategically important border stronghold: Jialing Pass!"

"Lima Plain? Jialing Pass?"

Hearing these familiar place names, Lin Ziyi, who had recently finished watching the Douluo Dalu anime, immediately understood where he was.

This was precisely the main collision point for the future Three Gods Battle, and a common graveyard where countless armies had met their demise!

Perhaps some inexplicable power had drawn him here from the shadows...

It might be one of the reasons he transmigrated here, but it probably wasn't the only one!

Lin Ziyi didn't dwell on it too much.

Now that he knew where he was, he could concoct a plausible excuse to fob them off.

He looked at the soldier, whose body was still trembling, and sighed with a smile:

"It seems like a case of mistaken identity, like the Dragon King's temple being flooded by the Dragon King himself – we're all family but don't recognize each other.

"Look at you, if you had told me earlier that this was within the Heaven Dou Empire, such a misunderstanding wouldn't have happened.

"Actually, I'm a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect! Just like you, I'm from the Heaven Dou Empire.

"It's just that I've been fascinated with studying teleportation arrays since I was young, and I accidentally teleported here from my clan.

"I'm definitely not a spy from the Martial Soul Hall; I have an irreconcilable enmity with the Martial Soul Hall..."

Of course, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena were exceptions!

What Lin Ziyi hadn't expected was that upon hearing the name "Clear Sky Sect," the soldier's face showed even greater surprise!

The Clear Sky Sect was still in a state of seclusion during this period.

Very few disciples of the Clear Sky Sect walked the earth, let alone possessed such terrifying strength!

A hint of suspicion appeared in the soldier's eyes:

"Are... are you truly a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect? Then, could you show me your Clear Sky Hammer?"
