Chapter 162: 162
162 – Pit
“– Hmm, why are you not speaking?”
An astonished sweet voice came from behind .
Xue Qilin held her breath . Xihe also stopped struggling and looked behind Xue Qilin, stunned .
In the wide opened eyes, the scene behind Xue Qilin — a gold figure sitting on a tree, legs dangling — was clearly reflected .
Asura’er .
Could it be that it wasn’t Xihe who hurt Little Seven, but her? It is possible . Xue Qilin’s head is buzzing . Jialan’s temperament is hard to pin down; there’s no way to judge what actions she will take .
Xue Qilin glanced at Xihe, and saw sadness and aggrievedness in her eyes .
She suddenly calmed down, as if a basin of water was poured on her .
What have I done? Xue Qilin felt lightheaded and released her grip . Xihe, thereupon, plopped down on her butt and coughed violently .
“Hey, you aren’t fighting? How boring . ”
With a “heave-ho”, Jialan jumped down from the tree . She swayed her arms and approached unhurriedly, as if taking a stroll .
“I’m so disappointed in you guys . You didn’t fight hard at all — hmm, but also… ‘Heaven Realm’ only amounts to this much in the end . ”
Jialan crossed her arms and nodded, agreeing with her words .
Holding her face with a hand, Xue Qilin slowly turned around . Shaking eyes emerged from between the fingers .
“It’s you?”
Xue Qilin’s voice was inexplicably hoarse .
“Hmm? What is me? I am me . Your question is too vague?”
Jialan stopped, patted an index finger against lips, and tilted her head .
Next —
“Ah!”
Evidently having though of something, Jialan clapped her hands in surprise .
The shallow dimples on her face setting off her lips, she revealed a honey-sweet smile and gazed at Xue Qilin .
“It’s me! If you are asking, if it’s me who hurt Merak Temple’s Temple Master, then the answer is affirmative . ”
Her smile became even sweeter, and an unnatural blush appeared on her face .
“Well, it’s me . ”
“Why…?”
“There is no reason why . ” She spoke in a matter-of-factly tone, “It’s just more fun this way . Isn’t it?”
“… fun?”
You gravely wounded Little Seven because it’s fun? Xue Qilin’s eyes widened, her mind a blank .
The lass in front of her has gone beyond her scope of understanding .
Xue Qilin cannot understand her .
Although human life is cheap, but she didn’t expect that it would be this cheap in Jialan’s eyes .
To take someone’s life just because it would be fun — what a twisted outlook .
“However, I was aiming for her heart . She shouldn’t be able to react . But suddenly, a wall that seemed to be made from true qi appeared and helped her block, saving her life…”
Jialan kicked a pebble next to her feet with dissatisfaction .
The pebble streaked across Xue Qilin’s left cheek and opened a shallow wound, and then pierced through several tree trunks . Xue Qilin didn’t react at all . It was too fast .
“Hey, do you know what happened? It was your doing, wasn’t it?”
Eyes sparkling, an expression of suppressed excitement on her face, Jialan looks like a child filled with curiosity .
Only… how can she make such a smile while talking about such things? This disparity makes the atmosphere turn strange .
It’s really twisted — no, it’s really pure . She only does what she wants .
Xue Qilin closed her eyes .
Shouldn’t exist .
She shouldn’t exist .
An indescribable anger gripped Xue Qilin . She didn’t know at the time that the anger that nearly engulfed her was largely due to self-blame for mistaking targets and hurting Xihe .
Why am I so impulsive? The sense of guilt fermented enough to distort any of the lass’s existing emotions .
“– Little Phecda!”
Xue Qilin shouted at the top of her lungs, and her voice resounded in the sky .
In response to the call, the large mechanical sword, that fell aside, rouse into the air unnaturally, then turned around and shot towards Xue Qilin .
However, Phecda didn’t return to Xue Qilin’s hand .
“I didn’t allow you to get together!”
With a flash of gold light, a hand struck Phecda and flung her back .
Unable to bear the formidable strength of a Grandmaster, the place where the heavy sword was hit depressed in the shape of a hand print .
Empyrean Universe embedded into a large boulder far away, and then became quiet .
“Little Phecda!”
Was her true form hurt? Why doesn’t she respond? Xue Qilin hurried to the place where Phecda fell . However, Jialan only took one step and arrived before Xue Qilin, blocking her way .
“You…”
“Where are you going?”
Jialan smiled sweetly .
However, her smile lasted only for a moment . In the next moment, her expression changed, and she stared at Xue Qilin coldly .
“I haven’t finished speaking, yet you want to leave? That isn’t very polite, don’t you know?”
Polite? Did she say to be polite to her? That’s ludicrous . Xue Qilin issued an ill-timed chuckle .
“What a nasty reaction!”
Jialan’s expression turned cold .
And then —
“Crack . ”
Jialan lifted a leg and slammed it into the ground .
— it was like an earthquake occurred .
In an instant, the land in Martial Demon Realm rumbled and shook .
Unpleasant noise that resembled the sound of bones breaking rang, as the terrain, within an area 20 meters in diameter centered on Jialan, crumbled and cracked .
At first, Xue Qilin thought that the ground, unable to bear the impact, cracked, and that’s it . But unexpectedly —
All of a sudden, a rock disappeared from between the cracks .
It fell! It fell into the ground!
“–!”
Shit! Realizing that things are bad, Xue Qilin wanted to retreat at once .
But she was still a step too slow .
The ground collapsed and exposed a dark bottomless pit in a flash .
Xue Qilin, who lost her footing, immediately fell along with the rocks . But the two didn’t have same endings .
Xue Qilin adjusted her posture, floated in mid-air, and grabbed Xihe, who fell along with her .
“Thank you…”
Xihe let go of the other party’s hand and started flying by herself . Her tone was particularly unfamiliar . Is it due to Xue Qilin accusing her wrongly?
“This is not the time to be at ease . ”
Xue Qilin narrowed her eyes .
At the end of her line of sight, there is Jialan guarding the entrance of the pit .
The pit is only about 20 meters in diameter, neither narrow nor wide . It is surrounded by a solid rock wall . Furthermore, the only exit is blocked by Asura’er .
How do we get out? Xue Qilin, even when joining forces with Xihe, may not be able to beat Jialan . As long as Jialan stays at the entrance of the pit, they will be trapped here .
However, it doesn’t look like Jialan intends to trap them here .
Spark-like light particles dropped from above .
Gold light shone at the entrance of the pit .
Fluorescent, majestic breath swayed like smoke .
“That wretched Asura’er, she actually wants to kill us!”
Full of smiles, Jialan pressed down gently with her right hand, which glows with dazzling light .
Light engulfed the field of vision .
A palm print of the same size as the pit’s mouth pressed down .
“Let’s go down!”
Xihe set out first .
“No need to state the obvious!”
Xue Qilin immediately turned around and chased after the darkness that is being dispelled by the gold light .
However, they didn’t escape the palm print in the end .
Gold light engulfed the two, and then exploded .
Enduring the severe pain that raged all over her body, keeping herself awake, Xue Qilin exited the cloud of dust .
A feeling of falling enveloped her .
Her body is wailing, her clothes are badly mangled .
“Uw…”
Xue Qilin managed to open her eyes with great difficulty, and debris immediately reflected in her eyes .
A few stones hit her, and she clenched her teeth in pain .
What a joke! Even if she doesn’t fall to her death, she’ll still be crushed to death! But Xue Qilin is out of strength .
As she wondered if she would be buried here, someone flew towards her .
It is Xihe .
She hugged Xue Qilin, and her nine tails interlaced and wrapped around both of them .
In the end, the two crashed into water .
The debris pursuing them arrived a beat later, and then water splashed about .
Everywhere is dark . Cold water poured into the nose and ears and caused acute pain, and some even went into the lungs .
In this perilous situation, Xue Qilin’s wounds flared up at the same time, and she lost consciousness .
