A red dress was swept up in the sandstorm. As the red dress danced, a natural spiritual pressure seemed as though the sky was collapsing as it fell towards the ground. The rocks at the bottom of the pit couldn't withstand the spiritual pressure and exploded, turning into dust.
The sudden action caused Qin Shi to raise his head abruptly, only to see Hua Ling's cold and charming face rapidly approaching him. With a flip of her hand, a force that he could not hope to reach erupted in his chest like a volcano, sending him flying nearly a thousand meters away.
The sudden accident caused the crowd to be in an uproar. Many elders of the Mystical Palace frowned as they stared at Hua Ling's trembling body. They had never seen Hua Ling having such a severe emotional fluctuation in the past thirty years.
"What did this brat do to infuriate the Hall Master to such an extent?"
Yu Qing was also puzzled but he was overjoyed by the outcome. "Kill him, kill him. As long as he is dead, the champion position will still fall into Young Master Xue's hands."
"Daddy?"
Xiao Mi Cai gritted her teeth and was about to charge forward.
Nangong Bing, Taishi Tinghua, Qiu Diao, and Xiao Qing tried their best to hold her back.
"Let go of me. This damned woman, how dare she go back on her words. I'm going to fight it out with her!" Xiao Mi Cai waved her rainbow-colored radiance continuously as she tried to break free from the few of them.
The few of them struggled to resist and Xiao Qing roared furiously, "Are you crazy? Are you sick?
What can you do?
Do you think you can defeat Hua Ling?
You will be sending yourself to death if you go up! "
Xiao Mi Cai shuddered slightly as she was stunned by Xiao Qing's words. She recalled the scene at the bottom of the Mystic Peak and was stunned for a moment.
That's right, what could she do if she went up?
In the hands of Hua Ling, she wouldn't even be able to make it out alive.
Under Hua Ling's soaring spiritual might, the massive Mystical Palace was shrouded in a haze as though it was going to pierce through the sky. The dripping rainwater scattered everywhere.
Tens of thousands of people stood in the rain as they held their breaths.
"Pu!"
In the ruins ten thousand meters away, Qin Shi painfully rolled over and spat out a mouthful of black blood filled with resentment. He could feel that Hua Ling's attack had shattered all of his internal organs and severed all nine of his Spiritual Meridians. If it wasn't for the fact that he had cultivated the first three layers of the Fallen Star Tyrant Body Technique, which made his physical body far stronger than ordinary people, he would have already walked on the road to the Yellow Springs.
He propped himself up painfully and glared at Hua Ling. "Hua Ling, didn't you promise me that you would return Sister Yu to me as long as I become the champion?
What do you mean by that? "
"I changed my mind!"
Hua Ling said in a cold voice. Her eyes were fixed on the jade bracelet in Qin Shi's palm. "Tell me, why is the Nine Revolving Exquisite Necklace in your hand?"
"Nine Spiral Exquisite Necklace?"
Qin Shi's heart sank. Only then did he come to a realization. Without hiding anything, he said, "It was Yu Luocha who gave it to me. She said …"
"Nonsense!"
Without giving Qin Shi a chance to finish his words, Hua Ling was enraged. Three thousand white hairs shot up into the sky, "I have an agreement with Luo Sha. As long as I am alive, the Nine Reincarnation Exquisite Chain will not leave me. Why would she give it to you?"
Qin Shi clenched his teeth. He didn't know that Yu Luocha and Hua Ling had such a promise. Thinking back, Yu Luocha's life was indeed in danger.
"I'm not talking nonsense!"
"I don't care if you're lying or not. Since you've taken the Nine Revolving Exquisite Necklace, it means that something has happened to Luocha. I'll send you to hell to meet her!"
Hua Ling's mind seemed to have collapsed. She was certain that Luocha was dead. No matter what Qin Shi said, she couldn't bear to listen to it anymore.
"This crazy woman is so f * cking unreasonable. Can't she let us speak? F * ck!
How wronged would I be if I died like this? "
Under Hua Ling's pressure, Qin Shi's entire body stiffened. He couldn't even move a single step, let alone dodge the attack that was coming at him.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have left Yu Luocha in the inn no matter what. Now, he didn't even have the chance to explain. Moreover, this time, he could feel that Hua Ling's attack on him was clearly different from when he was at the foot of the Profound Peak. Last time, it was just to scare him, but this time, he really wanted his life.
Staring at the approaching hand, Qin Shi couldn't do anything. He thought that he would be able to see Sister Yu soon. He didn't expect it to turn out like this.
Hua Ling was too strong. In front of her, he could only wait for death.
"Damn woman, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
The jade-like hand came closer and closer. Qin Shi thought that he was going to die, and cursed loudly in his heart. At this moment, the rainwater that fell on his face suddenly became bitterly cold. When he turned his head back, the rainwater had already turned into snowflakes, falling from the nine heavens.
The fluttering snow in June caused everyone to frown in confusion. A couple of alluring ripples suddenly appeared within the hazy rain fog of the green sky. Immediately, the space became distorted and a broken hole appeared. An ice mountain suddenly pierced out from the broken hole and protected Qin Shi within it.
The ice mountain blocked Hua Ling's hand, causing her to take a few steps back. Her beautiful eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of shock, "Who is it?"
Feeling the coldness coming from the ice mountain, the deepest part of Qin Shi's heart seemed to be plucked. He looked up at the void in the crack and couldn't help but tremble, "Is she here?"
In the crack, there was a blue figure wrapped in a long dress. The soft voice between her cherry lips brought along some ethereal aura, which resounded on the peak of the Profound Peak.
"If he is injured, the Profound Temple will be gone."
The beautiful figure walked gracefully while her dark blue hair hung down to her shoulders, causing her to seem elegant and gentle. Occasionally, a cool breeze would sweep up and lift it up, causing it to ripple out like a flowing waterfall, and even the pure white snow that covered the sky froze because of it.
Qin Shi's throat moved slightly. He admired the distorted space, the familiar blue color, the familiar unique body fragrance, and the familiar voice. Everything was familiar, as if it was imprinted on his soul. He even dared to say that if one day, he might forget himself, he would not forget the beautiful figure in the sky that he missed for countless days and nights.
"Xue Xin …"
After a long time, a whisper that was so low that it was in the dust sounded between Qin Shi's lips. It was as if he was afraid that if he was a little louder, this unreal dream would be broken.
As the beautiful figure emerged, Hua Ling's indifferent eyes couldn't help but change. As the number one person in Scarlet Flame Sect, she felt a little fear from this blue figure under the cover of the cold.
And among the tens of thousands of people, their hearts directly sank to the bottom.
In their eyes, the beautiful figure's clothes were not luxurious, but there was a kind of extraordinary and independent beauty. That kind of beauty was beautiful to the bone, so beautiful that the world would sink for it. There was no need for any rouge, these things would only blaspheme her.
On her delicate face, the expression seemed a little cold, without the slightest emotional fluctuation. In that noble appearance, it was as if even the world had become dim in her eyes. In the dim light, her eyes suddenly moved under a thin figure. The figure wrapped in a black robe reflected in the heart of her eyes, as if it illuminated her whole world, causing all the ice in her world to melt, revealing a touch of a seductive smile.
With light steps, Qin Xue Xin landed beside Qin Shi, as if she had lost the world. Her white lily-white hand gently stroked Qin Shi's face, brushing the dust off his body. She looked like a virtuous wife of an ordinary family, and murmured, "Shi Tou."
In the past, Qin Shi's black eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, became hot under the blue color, and an indescribable hot tear welled up in his eyes.
"Say it again!"
Qin Shi's throat was choked, and his voice was trembling.
"Shi Tou!"
"Say it again!"
"Shi Tou!
Shi Tou!
Shi Tou! "
Qin Xue Xin didn't have the slightest bit of boredom. She responded one by one, and her beautiful eyes couldn't help but moisten.
"Is it really you?"
Hearing the beautiful voice that entered his ears, Qin Shi clenched his fists. His palms were cut by his sharp nails, and the faint pain seemed to be replying to him, telling him that this wasn't a dream.
That long yearning, that beautiful figure that caused him to toss and turn in bed for countless of nights, appeared in his world once again. It made him feel that all the haze and pain he had suffered all these years had become worth it. Suddenly, he raised his arms, and with trembling hands, he hugged Qin Xue Xin.
He didn't say anything, because he knew that he didn't need to say anything, and everything would be revealed in the silence.
Below the stage, tens of thousands of people stared at this touching scene, and their throats couldn't help but turn dry. The appearance of Qin Xue Xin made Xiaomi let out a breath of turbid air, and she loosened her fists, "The big ice mountain is here, looks like daddy will be fine."
Nangong Bing and the others also widened their eyes, "I didn't think that there would be such a beautiful girl by Brother Qin Shi's side!"
The warm embrace that had suddenly arrived caused Qin Xue Xin's lovely body to tremble slightly. Immediately, a sorrowful gentleness surfaced on her ice-cold lovely face. She gently shut her pretty eyes and leaned against the chest that was not very strong. She felt each and every heartbeat of Qin Shi and each and every warm flow that belonged to her.
Qin Xue Xin knew that ever since they parted at the Passionless Cliff, Qin Shi had faced too much alone. From a young man who was only at the Spirit Sealer Realm, who had to carry her even after leaving the small Passionless Cliff, to the one who could shine in the Blazing Flame Empire's largest faction. This young man had suffered too much, and she hadn't been able to help him in the slightest. This made her feel a little guilty, a little pitiful, and a little gratified.
She knew that after going through so much, the current Qin Shi was no longer the hot-blooded and immature young man who acted on impulse. He was a true expert.
An expert who could fulfill the promise she made and work together with the Green Firmament Sect.
"Shi Tou, I haven't been by your side for the past year. Do you blame me?"
Qin Xue Xin raised her head nervously. She would only show such an obedient look in front of Qin Shi.
Qin Shi pretended to blame her and said, "Of course I do. I blame you for making me fall in love with you so deeply, but I can't see you. I can only yearn for you."
As he spoke, he looked at Qin Xue Xin biting her cherry lips and placing her hands on her chest in self-reproach. Her girlish appearance made him suddenly smile gently. He touched her pretty nose and said, "But now that you let me hug you like this, I don't blame you anymore. Can you let me hug you more?
I've really missed you for the past year. "
"En, I've missed you too …" She responded with a sweet smile. Wasn't Qin Xue Xin the same?
At this time, there were some trivial matters that couldn't allow them to continue reminiscing. Hua Ling said coldly, "No matter who you are, you must die today!"
