Chapter 56.1 : Peace and Calm
Hearing the Demon King"s highly charitable tone, the young lady"s expression finally showed a sliver of change. She raised up an eyebrow and then broke into a low chortle. "But what are we to do now? I still do not want to die yet?"
The instant that she lifted her face up, the mesmerizing pair of eyes that were so flawlessly beautiful glittering mistily, her exquisite countenance drawing a beautiful arc under this otherwise dark night.
Even the Demon King was captivated by the heart thumping and soul stirring beauty.
"A pity….. Thou is fated to be sacrificed to me on this day." The Demon King seemed to be rather regretful as he said. He then opened his mouth wide after that. Maybe because it was the first time he was feeling pity towards a sacrifice offered to him, he had intended to just devour the young lady straightaway, to give her a quick and easy death.
"Little Burrow. Return." Qing Yu said that in a highly indifferent tone. Thereafter, Zang Mai found his body turning uncontrollably into a beam of light, and he then returned back into the young lady"s body.
"Mistress! What are you doing?" The youth shouted out in frustration. He had been locked within the Spirit Dwelling and without his Mistress" orders, he was unable to get out.
"You just came awake and you must not get injured again." Qing Yu communicated with him through her consciousness. "Rest a.s.sured. I sense that someone has come. It will be fine."
"You can"t! That thing is very powerful and you will not be able to handle him alone! Mistress, let me out….."
"So in your heart, I am someone that is so weak that I will die without you around?" Qing Yu laughed rather contemptuously. "Little Burrow, being like this, you are humiliating me quite a bit!"
Right after that, she did not wait to hear the youth"s reply and just sealed up the dimensional s.p.a.ce.
And against the Demon King"s humongous mouth that was coming closer and closer to her, Qing Yu suddenly closed her eyes, looking like she had given up on resisting completely.
Outside the Barricaded Spirit Tower, Qing Ye Li has finished off an innumerable number of those ghostly shadows. Just as he was about to go into the tower, he suddenly heard a shrill laughter that pierced his ears. Her body rotting all over, her face ruined, a woman suddenly came shooting down from the sky. "What powerful cultivation you possess. For such a tiny little low level piece of land, it is hiding quite a number of highly skilled experts."
The moment that Yin Chi saw the man, she had immediately recognized him. Wasn"t this the man who noticed her presence when she had first come into the Imperial Palace?
Truly a case of the paths of enemies would inevitably cross.
Qing Ye Li"s gaze darkened. "You were the one that drew all these evil spirits here?"
"That"s right." Yin Chi nodded with a smile. "I am using this place to settle a personal feud, and I would advise that you do not stick your nose where it does not belong. I am one who distinguishes benevolence and grievances clearly, and would never harm the innocent."
After saying that, she then looked appraisingly at Ah Jin behind with an almost imperceptible smile, the two black vacant and eyeless sockets a highly horrifying sight.
"You are not from this Constellation Lands. You would not come here for no reason." Qing Ye Li looked at the woman who was clearly dragging for time, his green eyes showing a sliver of a surge. "Who is that person in there?"
"Oh?" Yin Chi could see that he seemed to be rather concerned about the young lady inside and she immediately revealed an evil smile. "Could you possibly be the lover of that little wretch in there? But I would think that not even her bones would be left by now. You"re too late. So rare and the purest blood meridians there is. If she had not failed to see what was for her own good, it would be great if she was cultivated into a puppet. What a great pity….."
The dark green eyes then narrowed up malevolently. [It was a young lady with the purest blood meridians in there?]
[Could it be…..]
[No, it"s impossible that it"ll be her. It most definitely must not be her.]
All the blood in Qing Ye Li"s body almost seemed like it had congealed up in that instant, where a kind of fear then suddenly grew in him.
But without waiting for him to think too long, he saw the woman before him suddenly turn her body halfway to glance towards the inside the Barricaded Spirit Tower, seemingly having finally a load lifted off her. The corners of her lips then lifted up into an unimaginably gentle smile. "I am coming to accompany you now….."
