Twisted Dreams-Chapter 133 - 105: Destiny
Deepest part of the ruins.
Jagged rocks, covered in moss.
Xie Qilin supported an oil paper umbrella, walking to the last cave entrance.
Intense fighting noises were emanating from inside.
Xie Qilin’s face turned grim.
Did someone really beat me to it?
He hid half of his body behind the rock wall, cautiously poking his head to look inside.
On the dark sea surface, a strangely shaped giant sword was floating.
In front of the giant sword, a long-haired youth in black, hands formed into claws, was manipulating a black demon snake to tightly coil around the giant sword.
The giant sword trembled violently, occasionally emitting a horrifying sword chant.
That young man was struggling to tame the giant sword!
More than a dozen foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes were besieging the young man.
Since the youth’s entire focus was on taming the giant sword, he could only defend or dodge against the foreigners’ attacks, unable to retaliate.
The leader among the foreigners was someone Xie Qilin had seen before.
It was Lilith, who had abandoned him in the ancient tomb.
He had used the Xie Family’s connections to investigate Lilith.
While others might find it difficult to uncover Lilith’s background, the Xie Family could easily find out.
Because, Dean Chen of the South Sea Green Grass Sanatorium was originally a dog of the Xie Family, but severed ties after returning from Huaqi.
Xie Qilin’s face showed a hint of murderous intent.
Whether it was Lilith or the youth in black, he wanted them dead.
One caused him harm, the other was the sworn brother of a mortal enemy.
Xie Qilin stood quietly in place.
He was waiting.
Waiting for Lilith and the youth in black to be evenly matched and mutually wounded.
Time was ticking away, yet the dozen foreigners still couldn’t defeat the youth in black!
Just then, a voice full of surprise sounded from behind:
"Xie Qilin?"
Xie Qilin turned around.
It was a young daoist, a blond youth, and a little monkey.
Xie Qilin’s heart sank.
Zhang Xiaoyi, Ye Fan.
How did those two end up together?
Indeed, there are many paths to this place; did they meet along the way?
Truly, he was cursed with these two!
Ye Fan pulled out the Mother Talisman with his left hand, holding a bunch of Child Talismans with his right:
"Boy from the Xie Family, since we bumped into each other, let’s settle our scores."
Meanwhile, Spiritual Power wove around him, forming an invisible spider web.
This was a technique of Spiritual Body Gathering.
The little monkey was ablaze:
"If you’re the third brother’s enemy, you’re my enemy!"
A red scale appeared at Zhang Xiaoyi’s brow.
It’d be ideal to kill Xie Qilin here, resolving a big problem for the Zhang Family.
Xie Qilin held the oil paper umbrella, from which a large amount of red smoke emanated.
The figure of the Eight-foot Bride appeared, attacking the two people and the monkey without a word.
He felt quite insecure.
Dealing with Ye Fan and Zhang Xiaoyi was already challenging, and now there’s another powerful demon monkey?
Isn’t the sky doomed for him?
Just then, two more groups arrived at this place.
Xie Qilin showed delight, shouting loudly:
"Sect Leader Han, if you don’t kill Ye Fan now, when will you?!"
These two groups, one from the Talisman Sect, and the other administrators from the Security Administration.
Han Hai saw the Spiritual Power spider web beside Ye Fan, full of envy:
"That old fool actually taught you Spiritual Body Gathering!
Damn it, you’re truly despicable!
Talisman Sect disciples, heed the call; that blond kid is a Talisman Sect rebel!
Kill him!"
Several spirit talismans flew towards Ye Fan.
Ye Fan was confused, hurried to block them.
Suddenly, a group of Talisman Sect disciples appeared, leaving Ye Fan no time to happily acknowledge them.
But, these ’relatives’ didn’t help kill Xie Qilin, why were they attacking him instead?
Quickly, he understood.
The death of the teacher was probably due to rebellion within the sect.
Now they wanted to kill the teacher’s last heir!
No wonder the teacher always looked sorrowful when mentioning his senior.
It seems that senior is the current Leader of the Talisman Sect!
Ye Fan roared:
"Brother Monkey, Sect Leader Zhang, hold off the Xie boy first!
I’ll first clean up the Talisman Sect’s internal affairs!"
Ye Fan’s Spiritual Power erupted, trying to evade attacks from Talisman Sect disciples, without injuring them, storming towards Han Hai full of fury.
The Xie Family grudge can wait; those who hurt the teacher must die first!
Without Ye Fan’s help, Zhang Xiaoyi and Heartless Little Monkey gradually lost their ability to suppress the Eight-foot Bride.
The battle situation was evenly matched.
The administrators of the Security Administration exchanged glances.
Why did they start fighting as soon as they met?
Wei Ming thought for a moment, pointing at Han Hai, angrily shouting:
"Do him in!"
The administrators responded, brandishing standard weapons, charging at Han Hai.
Han Hai, shocked and enraged, shouted:
"I have an agreement with Mr. He!
As long as there’s no violation of law and order, the officials won’t act against me!
Officer Wei Ming, what is the meaning of this?!
Do we have some misunderstanding between us?!"
Wei Ming shouted loudly:
"I saw you attack Daoist Zhang!
Daoist Zhang is a senior special advisor to our Security Bureau, this is an assault on a police officer!
You’ve violated safety regulations!"
Wei Ming did not know exactly what had happened.
But he knew Shu Mountain and the Security Administration were now tied together.
He had to do everything possible to assist Shu Mountain, keeping the Sect Leader’s spirit high.
Listening to their words, Xie Qilin’s eyes widened in fear, looking uneasily at Wei Ming:
"What’s his name again? Wei Ming?"
The names containing ’Yi’, ’Fan’, ’Ming’, were all present, weren’t they?
This cave won’t be my grave, will it?!
Battle kept getting more chaotic, stone crumbs fell from the stone path above.
Cold sweat dripped from Xie Qilin’s forehead, unable to fight, feeling more afraid.
He grabbed the oil paper umbrella, suddenly charged into the stone cave.
Inside the cave on the sea, only Crow was desperately trying to tame the giant sword.
The Evolvers from the God Creation Organization, upon detecting action outside the cave, had already hidden themselves.
They only wanted the treasures within the ruins, unwilling to stir up trouble.
Xie Qilin fought while keeping an eye out all around.
Since it was the Eight-foot Bride fighting, he mostly watched, similar to a summoner relying on a pet to battle.
He could see the hiding places of those from the God Creation Organization clearly.
Xie Qilin struggled to climb onto a reef, panting and looking down at the group of foreigners hiding behind the reef.
His combat power wasn’t high, relying entirely on the Eight-foot Bride, and his physical strength was lackluster.
When Lilith and Xie Qilin’s eyes met, surprised, she said:
"It’s you?"
Xie Qilin was gasping for air:
"Help me!"
Lilith crossed her arms, coldly saying:
"Your internal fight, what does it have to do with me?!"
Xie Qilin no longer looked at her, took a deep breath, shouted at the approaching Zhang Xiaoyi:
"Daoist Zhang! And all you official brothers outside!
The behind-the-scenes schemers disturbing South Sea’s peace and the South Sea Green Grass Sanatorium are right here!
Are not Shu Mountain disciples advocates for world peace?
Aren’t officials charged with maintaining Xia Country’s order?!
Will you kill me for a personal feud, or first deal with evil for the sake of the greater good!"
After shouting, Xie Qilin was drenched with sweat, his Tang suit soaked.
He knelt on one knee on the reef, quickly calming his breath, seriously telling Lilith:
"Beauty, they’re planning to kill you first.
We can only rely on each other, entrusting our lives to each other."
Lilith’s eyes widened with fury, brimming with murderous intent, seething:
"I should’ve killed you in the ancient tomb!"
Xie Qilin shook his head:
"Too many people want to kill me today; you’ll have to wait.
Go intercept that monkey, leave the daoist to me!"
