Chapter 483 Key
"don't want!
"Bei Yao! Bei Yao!"
"Ah—!" Shui Lian'er lay prostrate in the green lotus, wailing loudly.
-
Dongwu never expected that the two little mice he was about to catch would accidentally wander into the small teleportation array that they had painstakingly and painstakingly tried to avoid in the desolate forest.
And they even ruined it.
The other one was about to escape through his fingers.
This teleportation array is the only passage for the demons to cross the barrier and arrive here. It's impossible to find so many magic crystals anymore. In other words, apart from the demons who have already arrived, they will be isolated and helpless.
Even if the young master's plan is progressing steadily, this is still a significant blow. He failed to catch those two rats in time, which is already a failure, and now he has watched helplessly as the teleportation array is destroyed. He will definitely be severely punished when he returns.
Ha, what an undeserved disaster.
It's all his fault for being too kind-hearted. He wanted to let them run a little longer. After all, when a cat catches a mouse, it likes to see the mouse exhausted and desperately waiting for death, doesn't it?
Dongwu narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning cold. Ignoring the teleportation array that had been shattered, he turned and chased after Qinglian, who had transformed into a stream of light and was heading towards the Tianqian Sect.
It was merely a talisman used by a mere Golden Core cultivator; it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
His five fingers formed claws, transforming into a black phantom, and he slashed fiercely at Qinglian.
Unexpectedly, the light around the Azure Lotus trembled, but instead of being destroyed, it doubled in speed.
Dongwu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized what was going on.
"So it was a natal talisman sacrificed with one's own spiritual root..."
It wasn't used to save himself, but rather on a useless female cultivator.
It really is……
Dongwu's eyes darkened, and he showed no mercy. The surging demonic energy condensed in his hand, instantly transforming into thousands of sharp claws that rushed towards the green lotus in front of him. At the same time, his figure flashed and he blocked the green lotus in the blink of an eye.
Despite enduring the onslaught of countless claws, Qinglian refused to part her petals and reveal the girl within. Dongwu stepped forward, waving his hand to create a demonic energy barrier. Qinglian, without pausing, broke through the barrier and flew past him.
This time, Dongwu is really taking it seriously.
He truly never expected that such a mediocre cultivation world would have such a powerful human cultivator. Even though he was already reduced to ashes, his natal talisman was still so strong!
Really interesting.
Demonic energy gathered in his hands once more, and as it churned, it transformed into a roaring demonic lion, which treaded on floating clouds and charged toward the fleeing Qinglian.
The lion opened its mouth wide and roughly tore off a petal in one bite.
The petals instantly lost their spiritual light, and several talismans became worthless, fluttering down from the sky.
Shui Lian'er, kneeling in the lotus stamen, watched as the petals were torn off, her heart felt like it was bleeding, and the pain made it hard for her to breathe.
Tears blurred my vision, like the mournful cry of that familiar boy.
Bei Yao, Bei Yao...
Feeling the warm, flowing spiritual energy within the lotus, she couldn't stop her tears.
Why, why is this happening?
Why did they become separated by death after just having a simple cup of tea?
Her Bei Yao is gone.
Her Bei Yao is gone...
There will never be another person who will stand by her side, laugh with her, cry with her, play with her, and stay with her for thousands and thousands of years.
She cried and gagged, the blood from her abdomen once again soaking through the pomegranate-red dress the boy had carefully chosen for her. She frantically tried to wipe it away, but even her tears got stained, and she could never look as beautiful as she once was.
Just when she was at her most desperate, the disciple's jade token on her waist suddenly flashed. Shui Lian'er wiped away her tears and picked up the jade token with trembling hands.
Where are you?
Shui Lian'er took a deep breath and immediately recovered.
But she had only written half of the words when Qinglian suddenly swayed. The lotus, which had been almost torn apart by the demonic lion, could no longer maintain its lightning speed and crashed heavily to the ground.
The jade pendant was flung away, but the broken lotus still gently enveloped Shui Lian'er, trying its best to protect her from any harm.
Feeling Qinglian's protection, Shuilian'er's tears, which she had barely managed to hold back, burst forth once again.
"Roar--!"
“Ho ho—!”
The demonic lion roared and pounced, tearing apart the last few petals. At the same time, it was exhausted and dissipated.
Shui Lian'er was covered in blood and rolled to the ground amidst the countless talismans.
Through her teary eyes, she glanced at the talismans falling on her, gritted her teeth, grabbed the grass roots on the ground, and staggered to her feet.
She can't die.
She hasn't seen Li Qian yet, nor has she seen her mother.
Bei Yao said that she should live well, including his share of the life... She should at least do her best not to let him down.
"Stop putting up a fight. It's just a desperate struggle, why bother?" Dongwu floated down from the sky, his eyes wicked and his eyebrows raised. He looked bored and lazy, full of disdain for the dying man.
Shui Lian'er clutched her abdominal wound, her face pale as she glared at him hatefully, wishing she could pounce on him and bite his neck to avenge Bei Yao!
"Who are you? Why are you trying to kill us all?"
Dongwu conjured a bone fan and tapped it in his hand. Perhaps out of pity for the deceased, he did not immediately kill her, but kindly advised her: "Who I am is not important, what matters is your choice."
“I don’t intend to exterminate you all. I just want your heart.” He pointed with the tip of his fan at Shui Lian’er’s heart. “If you are willing to dig out your heart and give it to me, I can spare your life and exhaust the restrictions within your body before digging out your heart, because you are a woman.”
Prohibition?
What kind of restrictions are placed on her body?
Why does he want her heart? He hunted her down just to get her heart?
So... Bei Yao was implicated by her, which is why...
Shui Lian'er's body swayed violently, and she almost collapsed.
It was during this moment of distraction that she suddenly remembered the strange mirror she had encountered in Chang Le City. In it, besides seeing Bei Yao smiling bitterly as he sent her out of the underground palace, she also saw—a golden, semi-transparent key flash by.
She always thought she was seeing things... Could it be that her heart was...?
But she's a human being, isn't she?
Shui Lian'er was bewildered. She even doubted whether she was a real human being, since she clearly had a mother!
However, there was one thing she was certain of: she absolutely could not, absolutely could not let this demon succeed. Even if she were to die, she would leave her heart with the Tianqian Sect!
Considering the terrifying difference in strength between the two, Shui Lian'er first tried to stall for time by feigning compliance. She and Bei Yao had already sent a message to Li Qian, assuring her that she would definitely be able to arrive with help!
