Chapter 787: The Great Sacrifice
Translator:TatEditor: Rundi
Before the ancient heavenly tree, Ji Qian Bai and they felt like they have been slapped in the face again. Sarcastic smiles froze on their faces.
Just now, they were certain that there would be no way for more women to appear. However, another incomparably beautiful woman appeared. Isn’t that a form of being slapped in the face?
They really wanted to ask Ling Xian, just how many more girls do you know? Why isn’t there an end to this??
“Qing Yi…”
Ling Xian was a little startled as his eyes fixated onto the beauty. His eyes flickered with gentleness.
Lin Qing Yi did the same.
She stared at Ling Xian without blinking. Other than softness in her eyes, there was only pain.
Their eyes connected. It was as if they were the only two who existed in this world and n.o.body else should dare to intrude.
There was no noise; no shouting. Heaven and earth silenced in this instant. There was no sound but much was said.
After a long while, Ling Xian finally broke the silence with a soft sigh.
“I cannot believe you came too.”
Lin Qing Yi flashed him a smile, making an entire population succ.u.mb to her beauty. She scanned Bai Xiao Qi and them with her gaze and gently grinned. “They all came. Why wouldn’t I?”
“You…”
Ling Xian bitterly smiled and sighed, “You should go back. I am already so touched that you are here. Today, I am deemed to die. You should leave quickly so I can be on my way in peace.”
“No.”
Lin Qing Yi shook her head gently. Though her words were soft, they disallowed any questions.
“Since I came, I have no plans to return. I will either save you or I will go with you.”
Hearing this, Ling Xian opened his mouth. He had a thousand words to say but they all dissolved into one hopeless sigh.
“Qing Yi, what are you doing this for?”
“I don’t want you to die. That is all.” Lin Qing Yi gently smiled and moved her gaze towards Bai Xiao Qi and them. She said, “They are all thinking the same thing as me. We don’t want you to die.”
Bai Xiao Qi and they all nodded in seriousness. Their faces expressed their determination.
This made Ling Xian tighten his fist but he loosened them hopelessly after. Sighing, he continued, “Listen to me. Go back. I don’t need you to tend to my business.”
“But we want to help.”
Lin Qing Yi’s smile blossomed like a flower. She s.h.i.+fted her gaze towards Ling Tian Xiang and Yu Xun Zhen, “I am not as capable these two younger sisters.”
Then, she looked over to Bai Xiao Qi, Huang Jiu Ge, and Yan Ning Zhi, “I am not as talented as these three younger sisters.”
“I am also not as rich as this younger sister… to be able to hire five completion leveled cultivators…” Lin Qing Yi then looked over to Gong Suo Xin.
Then, her gaze landed on Tang Thirteen. She whispered, “I definitely am not as strategic and intelligent as this younger sister.”
After hearing what she said, everyone was a little confused. Only Ling Xian knew what was coming.
What Lin Qing Yi said next moved everyone!
“I only have one life. A life that I am willing to sacrifice for you any time.”
Lin Qing Yi’s smile was like a flower’s as she tenderly stared at Ling Xian. There was softness, unwillingness, and determination in her eyes.
Then, she formed a hand seal. And before everyone’s astounded gaze, she began to age at an extremely fast speed.
Her black hair transformed snow-white in an instant. Her bouncy and pale skin was wrinkling. Within a few breaths time, she turned from a proper and graceful lady into an old woman.
But the Qi she was emitting was also improving at an intense speed. She eventually reached the advanced stage of the original level!
This scene stunned everyone here!
They knew very well that Lin Qing Yi had used a secret technique that pays lifespan in exchange for capabilities. It was also possible that she will soon die!
This is because just now, her spiritual energy was vigorous and energetic, yet now, her scent was turning weak and pale – there weren’t many days left for her.
To transform into an old woman from an out of the world beauty, how much courage did this require?
Remember that the face is the utmost important thing for a woman. From a certain angle, it’s more important than life!
Yet Lin Qing Yi turned herself from the nation’s beauty to a wrinkly old woman. Why wouldn’t everyone be moved by this?
Ling Xian, in particular, felt his heart pinch and he couldn’t even breathe from the pain!
He really didn’t expect Lin Qing Yi to sacrifice so much for him!
From having so much vitality and grace just moments ago to being old and aged now, just how much courage was needed for this?
And just how deeply did she care about him to sacrifice so much for him?
Ling Xian’s eyes were damp. She stared at the shaking Lin Qing Yi and a tear fell.
“Qing Yi…”
One croak… just how much sadness and how much emotion was packed in there.
“Ehem, ehem, Ling Xian, this is the only thing I can do for you. I hope it will help you pave out a path.”
Lin Qing Yi coughed twice. She then looked longingly at Ling Xian. Then, her expression turned stone cold as she s.h.i.+fted her gaze towards Ji Qian Bai and them.
“Sisters, if we don’t attack now, when will we?”
Just then, Lin Qing Yi began her move. Despite her weak Qi, the way she moved was shocking and quaking!
At this, Bai Xiao Qi and they all began to move. They vowed to help Ling Xian pave out a path!
HOMMM!
Yan Ning Zhi’s hands were gliding as two arrays exploded with power. One side of it was decreasing Ji Qian Bai and others’ capabilities, the other side of it was enhancing the women’s capabilities!
At the same time, Huang Jiu Ge flew across the sky, covering the sky with her wings. Along with a bright howl, flames began to rain down from above, boiling the land and the sea!
“Sage body! Seal! Suppress!”
Yu Xun Zhen shouted and power from her sage body shot out. A shapeless Qi rolled out with enough vigor to cover all nine levels of heaven and all 10 levels of h.e.l.l!
As one of the nine sage bodies, not only can she cultivate really fast, her battling capabilities were also insane. Therefore, her every move shocked heaven and astounded the earth!
WHOOOs.h.!.+
Weapons swept across the sky, the earth was split open!
Lin Tian Xiang, acting as the G.o.d of Death, was turning extremely horrifying!
HOMMMM!
A crazy amount of energy rolled out with the intention to destroy the sky!
Though Tang Thirteen was merely at the peak of the completion level, she was wearing an unknown armor that made her exude an energy that was equivalent to the beginning stage of the original level!
Bai Xiao Qi was the same. She seemed to have acquired a great fortune. As her hands glided in the air, three golden phoenixes appeared, making her look like the empress of the world and the leader of all armies!
Her spiritual energy was increasing as well!
As for Gong Suo Xin, she merely waved her hand, and the five original leveled cultivators entered the enemy’s array to fight. As for herself, she displayed the technique that Yan Ning Zhi taught her and broke the array that was protecting Ling Xian.
Then, she displayed a beautiful smile, “You leave quickly. We will stall.”
“Where do I go?”
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, “I cannot move at all right now. This is why I asked you to leave.”
“You are at a critical point in your breakthrough?”
Gong Suo Xin frowned. Their original plan was to stall the others so Ling Xian could safely leave. But since he cannot move at all right now, then their plan was useless.
“Aye, you really shouldn’t have come.”
Ling Xian sighed. Looking at the women who were bathing in blood, fighting for him. Suddenly, he felt very powerless.
Especially looking at the now very aged Lin Qing Yi, the powerlessness he felt reached an unprecedented peak.
