Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Seeing the small black tower that Lu Ming flicked out from his sleeve, Mu Yunyan was startled. Was this the method of an immortal?

Is the sleeve of the Carefree King really that wide? It can actually hold a small pagoda. Although the pagoda is not very big, it is definitely not something that can be hidden in a sleeve without being noticed.

Mu Yunyan suddenly remembered the story she had witnessed that night at the Xiaoyao Prince's mansion, where the commander who had killed the evil spirit told her about it. It was said that the Xiaoyao Prince had easily killed the master who was possessed by the evil spirit with just a small tower.

Could this be that little tower?
What level of spiritual artifact is this?

For a moment, Mu Yunyan became very interested in the Demon Suppression Tower that Lu Ming had taken out. At the same time, she couldn't help but think that it seemed that Immortal Lu had left a lot of good things for the Carefree King.

In Mu Yunyan's view, Lu Ming's ability to become an immortal and possess such great strength was all because the old Xiaoyao King passed on his immortal techniques and magical treasures to Lu Ming before his death, which made Lu Ming so powerful.

Lu Ming had been hiding his talents all these years simply because he needed time to grow. Now that he has grown, he naturally no longer needs to hide his talents.

After using the Demon-Suppressing Tower to subdue the vengeful spirit that was trying to attack him, Lu Ming carefully examined the spirit.

The vengeful spirit's form flickered, appearing extremely unstable. Its eyes were blood red, and even when subdued, it still seemed to want to attack people, showing no signs of reason whatsoever.

At this moment, Lu Ming tried asking the vengeful spirit, "Do you possess sentience?"

Seeing that Lu Ming was actually talking to the evil spirit, Mu Yunyan stared at Lu Ming with a strange expression. She was very curious about why Lu Ming was not killing the evil spirit, but only suppressing it.

The vengeful spirit remained in a fierce and menacing state, seemingly not understanding what Lu Ming was saying at all.

Seeing that the vengeful spirits completely ignored him, Lu Ming wondered if it was because his spirit summoning technique was still in its early stages and he couldn't command the dead.

Or is it that this vengeful spirit is too low-level, only able to understand simple commands and unable to comprehend complex words?
Thinking of this, Lu Ming tried again and said, "I want to know who killed you. If you can regain your senses and tell me who killed your entire village, I will definitely avenge you!"

Upon hearing Lu Ming's words, perhaps provoked by the word "murderer," the vengeful spirit instantly became extremely agitated, to the point that even the Demon Suppression Tower seemed unable to subdue it.

Seeing this, Mu Yunyan gripped her sword tightly again, ready to strike at any moment.

Seeing that the vengeful spirit was still only howling, Lu Ming frowned slightly. It seemed that it would be very difficult to restore the vengeful spirit's rationality from its previous life. After all, the reason why vengeful spirits could exist was because of their deep resentment. Without this resentment, even if they became dead, they would probably be reincarnated very soon.

It is precisely because of this resentment that they have been able to exist in this world for so long. If they regain their senses, wouldn't that mean that the resentment in their hearts has disappeared?
However, the vengeful spirit was not entirely useless to him. Lu Ming directly manipulated the Demon Suppression Tower to suck the evil spirit into the tower.

Seeing that Lu Ming had actually taken away the evil spirit, Mu Yunyan was stunned for a moment. According to the rules, evil spirits should be killed on the spot, or at least handed over to the Zhenling Guards for disposal.

The Carefree King has no authority to deal with evil spirits. However, the Star Gazing Tower was founded by the Carefree King's father, and the methods used by the Spirit Suppressing Guards to kill evil spirits all came from the old Carefree King. At this time, Mu Yunyan couldn't say anything, and she wasn't the kind of person who was rigid.

However, Lu Ming's actions made her more wary of him. The Carefree King, instead of killing the evil spirit, instead collected it. He could collect the evil spirit today, and he could release it from the tower another day.

If evil spirits had appeared in crowded places back then, I don't know how many people would have died.

Moreover, she believed that Lu Ming's small tower definitely contained more than just the evil spirit from before; there might be some other powerful evil spirits imprisoned inside.

At this moment, Mu Yunyan even wondered if the attack on the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion by evil spirits was orchestrated by Lu Ming himself.

However, Mu Yunyan quickly put this conjecture out of her mind. There was no need for the Prince of Xiaoyao to stage such a thing, since the Zhenling Guard had not been able to find the Prince of Xiaoyao's mansion.

The Zhenling Guard had no clue about the evil spirit's massacre of the village. If it weren't for the appearance of this evil spirit, they wouldn't have suspected the Carefree Prince. If the Carefree Prince orchestrated it himself, it would have attracted the Zhenling Guard's attention. Therefore, it's highly likely that the evil spirit really has nothing to do with the Carefree Prince.

Thinking of this, Mu Yunyan dispelled her suspicions about Lu Ming, but her vigilance remained. She thought to herself that once she returned, she would definitely send someone to keep a close eye on the Prince of Xiaoyao.

Although the Carefree King may not necessarily release these evil spirits to wreak havoc on the world, he already possesses such abilities. If the Carefree King really covets that position, he may very well use the power of the evil spirits to create chaos in the capital. Therefore, the Spirit Guard must keep a close eye on the Carefree King at all times.

Lu Ming had no idea what Mu Yunyan was thinking at that moment, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. Let the Zhenling Guards keep an eye on her if they wanted to.

At this moment, Lu Ming's attention was focused on the Demon Suppression Tower. After he collected the vengeful spirits into the tower, the spirit instantly quieted down, and its scarlet eyes gradually became clear.

Seeing this, Lu Ming instantly realized that the Demon Suppression Tower could suppress evil spirits, but it could also help evil spirits eliminate their malevolent energy and resentment. This evil spirit had most likely regained its senses.

Lu Ming then summoned the evil spirit again, wanting to see if it would lose its mind again after leaving the Demon Suppression Tower.

The next moment, the vengeful spirit reappeared before everyone. Seeing that the carefree king had summoned the evil spirit again, people were puzzled, wondering what he was doing.

At this moment, Lu Ming was surprised to find that the vengeful spirit was still conscious, and her soul body had become much more solid. Lu Ming was slightly surprised. He knew that the environment of the Demon Suppression Tower was a blessed place for evil spirits, but he did not expect that this evil spirit had only been inside for a short while and her soul body had received such great help.

The spirit looked down slightly, staring in disbelief at everything before her. When she saw that her feet were off the ground, she quickly realized that she was dead.

Her gaze fell on the group again. The moment she saw Lu Ming, Wang Xiaoling immediately realized that Lu Ming was no ordinary person. So she knelt down without hesitation and said, "Please, Your Excellency, avenge this humble subject!"

"This humble subject is willing to serve you as a slave or maidservant for life!"

Upon seeing that the evil spirit could actually speak, Mu Yunyan frowned. They had encountered talking evil spirits before, but most of the time they were possessing people and using their mouths to speak. (End of Chapter)
