Chapter 456: Wow, So It’s Evening!
Zhuo Qingyao landed before the Sky-crossing Bridge and threw Zi Yu on the ground. There were five people present of which four wielded a different weapon each, a sword, a saber, a spear, and a halberd.
The four held large chains in their hands locking the man in their center.
The chained man was brimming with power from his bulky stature, with sculpted muscles, ripped off sleeves and messy hair. His eyes glinted with madness as each of his limbs was pinned down by a chain.
Zhuo Qingyao turned to Zi Yu, “I shouldn’t have brought you. This place is too dangerous.”
He smiled, “I find it the best place to be, harmless.”
Zi Yu walked pass the five and on the bridge. After ten li he said to Zhuo Qingyao, “A great place. The fight won’t reach the bridge, probably.”
Zi Yu sat on the railing, “I’m a bit hungry.” He took out a string from his sleeve, tied a hook to it and cast it into the waters below.
Xu San’er watched Zhuo Qingyao with mild interest, “Young miss, it’s going to be dangerous here. It’s best if you leave.”
Zhuo Qingyao asked puzzled, “If it’s that dangerous, what are you doing here?”
Xu San’er said, “We’re waiting.”
“I’m also waiting.”
Master isn’t here yet.
All was quiet for now.
Li Suyi didn’t cast his eyes on Jin Xiangyu. Even Void’s Crown Prince and Yan Shengxiao avoided her. That was one of the then grand immortal arts, Jade Lake’s Dance in the Ninth Heaven.
One look was enough to drive one insane.
The dance entranced one’s soul and threw their mind into confusion.
The wails of the self-mutilating Earth Immortals behind her were proof enough.
The deranged Earth Immortals’ eyes were filled with conviction, however, as if all they’ve done was proper, as if cutting off their flesh was all for a greater goal.
“You slaughtered my family and I will pull your bones and suck your marrow dry. This is the only way to cleanse the hatred in my heart!”
One even chopped his finger and started sucking it!
Another kept hacking at his body as he raved, “I’ll butcher you! I’ll butcher you!”
The area under Jin Xiangyu’s influence was a cesspool of blood and madness.
They lost control of their bodies and Jin Xiangyu’s outstanding beauty coupled with her dance, sunk the place into a living hell, into the Dance of the Demons!
Jin Xiangyu glanced passed the strings and on Chen Yu. She saw the killing intent on her, “Didn’t you want to kill me? Come, I’m right here, kill me.”
Jin Xiangyu saw the struggle in Chen Yu, the hesitation. Since you’re in such conflict, you already lost. The stronger the killing intent and the stronger they are, the faster they fall!
Chen Yu’s eyes lost focus, turning into a pair of dead red eyes. Jin Xiangyu was over the moon, Not even women can escape my charm.
Jin Xiangyu danced in the peach blossom, with smooth and enticing movements, yet filled with devastating attraction. When the last flicker of awareness left Chen Yu’s eyes, Jin Xiangyu said, “By thou blade, kill thy self!”
Take your weapon and end your life.
But to her amazement, Chen Lingyu didn’t move an inch and instead let out an odd sound, she let out a lovely yawn, as if tired, and looked up happy, “Wow, is that the Galaxy? Is this night? This is the first time Ling’er saw the night sky!”
Chen Yu lost control of her body, handing it over to Chen Ling’er, not Jin Xiangyu.
Jin Xiangyu watched her strangely. Her eyes were pure and innocent, spotless of killing intent.
What is this!
I just had her!
But why can’t I make her respond to my orders?
Chen Ling’er covered her mouth from exhaustion. This was the first time she woke from her dreams.
Jin Xiangyu danced among the petals, her white legs stepped forward and lotus bloomed.
Yet Chen Ling’er was just like a bobbing chicken for grain, “Yawn, so tired!”
She ignored Jin Xiangyu’s entrancing dance and kept muttering nonsense, “Oh… um… sister… your dance… is quite nice… but… Ling’er is too… tired.”
Her eyelids closed at last and then flashed open, red with killing intent.
Chen Ling’er went to sleep and Chen Yu came back!
Chen Yu opened her eyes only to close them again. But this time was different. It wasn’t because Chen Yu was going to sleep, but because she had to defend against Jin Xiangyu’s dance.
Chen Yu listened to her surroundings. The Earth Immortals’ wails, she ignored. Li Suyi’s blade attacks, she ignored. Void’s Crown Prince breaking in and out of the void, she ignored. Yan Shengxiao’s derision, she ignored.
When all background noise faded, the only sounds reaching her were Jin Xiangyu’s feet landing on lotuses, her sleeves brushing the air.
“Found you!”
Chen Yu picked six needles from her waist and threw. They carried strings next to Jin Xiangyu, limiting her dancing.
A sleeve fell off when it touched the string and Jin Xiangyu stopped, “Who are you to affect my Dance in the Ninth Heaven?”
Chen Yu sneered, “That’s not important, now is it?
“Your death is all that matters!”
The strings around Jin Xiangyu aimed to cut her to pieces.
Jin Xiangyu turned into lotus petals, slipped through the strings and drifted closer to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu peered through, eyes flashing with murder. Lotus Reincarnation? The root may break but the fibers remain?
Useless regardless. I can still see you!
Even a lotus, even the fibers had a weakness.
Chen Yu pierce three petals and they all scattered. Yet the fine fibers between each of them soon gathered them.
Chen Yu aimed for the strings this time and as countless petals fell, a figure appeared. Jin Xiangyu coughed blood.
P.S.: a shout-out to all my patrons for keeping me afloat. Thank you.
