Qi Xia laughed in spite of himself and conveniently took out a purse of gold coins from his storage ring, then put them on the table.
The female singer glanced at the purse and sat up straight.
“One hundred, another hundred years; the ancient sea behind him flickers slightly…”
Qi Xia had just squinted his eyes to concentrate on listening. However, after a single verse was sung, he couldn’t hear the following lines of the song.
!!
The female singer looked at Qi Xia and then at the purse.
…” Was she telling him that one verse of a song cost one purse of gold coins?! Qi Xia almost laughed out loud. He had seen a money-grubber, but had never seen such an arrogant money grubber.
Another purse of gold coins was placed on the table, and the voice of the female singer sounded faintly once again.
This time, Qi Xia made sure to put the next bags of coins on the table before the singing stopped.
“When a few rows of egrets fluttered by, the flag of the last era was hauled down; At the end of the war, the blood splashed on their arms.
For the day when the heart was washed out….” A gentle singing voice filled the air in the back garden at night. Under the moonlight, only this voice floated around in Qi Xia’s ears. He half-squinted his eyes and looked at the red-clad girl singing in the moonlight. Her slow singing voice, with her gentleness, brought a soul-stirring effect.
Qi Xia shut his eyes. The song flowed into his heart and the splendid scenes started appearing in front of him.
Everywhere was enveloped in the flames of war: the crimson flames reflected the sky, and the sound of fighting fell incessantly on the ear.
Looking around, he seemed to be able to smell the blood that filled the air as demon beasts, demons, humans, and magical beasts all fought in chaos.
He sat on Qilin’s back, and the staff in his hand twinkled with a dazzling light, launching a barrage of magic attacks. Carca.s.ses of demon beasts could be seen everywhere, yet the endless demon beasts came like the tide. Once again, the light of magic illuminated the dim sky. Qilin swiftly flew upwards with his feet stomping on the auspicious clouds. Qi Xia’s staff did not stop for a moment, and the magic spells fell one after another, like rain.
War was accompanied by death; the beacons of fire were accompanied by mournful sounds.
Qi Xia’s eyes were filled with sights of demon beasts. In the sky, flying beasts charged at them many times, which were soon disposed off; their bloodstained bodies turned into a ray of blood and fell to the earth.
Suddenly, a cry pierced Qi Xia’s eardrums. His heart was startled and he looked at the source of the sound.
At the end of the demon beasts horde, a familiar figure leaped into Qi Xia’s eyes. Not far away from the figure, a huge black vortex was rapidly shooting towards the person, and Vermillion Bird beneath her!
In a flash, Qi Xia’s heart stopped. Watching the nightmarish scene, his cynical eyes, for the first time, revealed an unprecedented panic.
The black vortex engulfed the figure and the firebird in an instant.
A heart-wrenching pain reached Qi Xia’s soul at the same time.
“This isn’t true… this isn’t true… Qilin!” Qi Xia gritted his teeth and growled.
Qilin turned into a silver light and rushed in the direction of the black vortex.
The black vortex devoured everything it touched. It devoured down everything.
When Qilin arrived, Qi Xia could only look helplessly at the bones scattered on the ground and the familiar ring.
“It’s not true… She’s not dead, it’s not true…” Qi Xia opened his mouth and stared at those cold bones. His fists were clenched on his sides, and his shoulders trembled vaguely.
He jumped from Qilin’s back in a panic. At the moment of landing, he held the slender human bones in his hands, and his pupils shook in despair…
“Xiaoxiao…”
