Chapter 28 Attack the Fire Tribe (3)
Chapter 28 Attack the Fire Tribe (3)
At the end of the darkness, there was a bright light. Wuyou dispersed her divine consciousness, looking for the traces of the Ancient Spirit.
The floating Spirit Power, at the sight of the master, flowed up constantly. Wuyou spread herself out and absorbed the Spirit Power. When the Ancient Spirit enriched the whole body, Wuyou opened the eyes.
In the distance, the red-haired man waved his sleeves, and the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Fire Tribe rushed down the city. Su Shenyang turned into a water curtain to block off the opponent’s soldiers, while the soldiers from the Fairy Kingdom gathered their Spirit Power and attacked the Fire-Tribe soldiers. The sound of slaughter rang with rows of soldiers falling to the ground. The mourning and howling echoed in the night sky.
Wuyou left with the wind. Ancient Spirit extended to pounce at the red-haired man. The man held the blazing saber in his hand to wave at the Spirit Power, in an attempt to split it into half, but his saber melted when chopping the Spirit Power.
The red-haired man leaped up and turned into a monster of a man’s face and an eagle statue. Its claws were extremely sharp in the red feathers. Wuyou’s Binding Fairy Rope pressed hard at the red-haired man. Xiao Yan looked at the woman in the Spirit Power, and then dived down. Wuyou was attacked by the enemies both front and back.
Ancient Spirit swept in all directions again. Wuyou vaulted onto the high wall, followed by the red-haired man closely. Xiao Yan’s eyes released the demonic power, his red-blood Spirit Power strafing Wuyou. The Ancient Spirit condensed into a giant palm to pound at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan failed to dodge it in time, and felt a sharp pain in the chest. He could not believe that the woman in front was so powerful.
Seeing Xiao Yan injured, the red-haired man carried out another attack and picked up Xiao Yan with his sharp claws to fly to the city wall. The Ancient Spirit kept hounding the red-haired man to the city wall, his hands gripping closely to sweep to the red-haired man. With a boom, the red-haired man was hit tens of feet away.
Xiao Yan looked at her black eyes, more shocked. The woman in front was not the young girl who she used to be. Her nine inky tails waved in the city wall. The red-haired was rolled up by the fox’s tail and thrown into the air.
Looking at Jiang Wuyou, Xiao Yan rushed out desperately. What he wanted this moment was only to save his life. Nine extending tails rolled up Xiao Yan who wanted to escape. Jiang Wuyou overlooked the two persons suspending in the mid-air. Her eyes were full of nothing but killing desire. At that moment, Jiang Wuyou was not herself any more, and she was the incarnation of Jiangyu, one of the four Ancient Gods. The Ancient Spirit hiding in her body finally broke through the seal.
“Who are you?”
The red-haired man looked at the floating Black Fox. He had never seen the black Nine-tailed Fox in the three realms. Neither did Xiao Yan.
“Nascent Soul, so forgetful. You dare to forget your junior uncle master!”
The red-haired man was genuinely more surprised. This Black Fox knew who the red-haired man was tens of thousands of years ago.
“Who are you?”
Strangling the red-haired man tightly, Black Fox looked at the two persons in chilly rage.
“Nascent Soul, do you still remember Jiangyu?”
The red-haired man’s face turned deathly pale, and he did not expect Black Fox before him to be the deceased God of Teal Hill.
“Chidi, unexpected, right? I am back again. Haha...”
Black Fox burst into wild laughter, his deeply dark eyes staring at Nascent Soul. Then Black Fox’s tails split to Nascent Soul, and Nascent Soul was battered to spit flesh blood out.
When hearing Black Fox mention the name of Chidi, Xiao Yan realized that the fox spirit in front was the head of the Four Gods, Jiangyu. Was Divine Fox reborn after disappearing for tens of thousands of years?
Xiao Yan could not figure out how the Ancient God was parasitic in a little girl’s body. The more thought, the more frightened. All he wanted at that moment was to escape. As for the victory or failure, he could not manage so much. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from Black Fox’s tie. To escape was easier said than done. That moment, Xiao Yan didn’t want to wait for death. Looking at Nascent Soul thrown into the sky and hearing the murderous voice, Xiao Yan even regretted it very much. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎
“Your Royal Highness, save me!” 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐om
Nascent Soul’s voice grew fainter. Drops of blood like tears drifted into the distance and blood beads began condensing. When the sky was torn up a crack, a black shadow flew from the horizon. Black Fox stared closely. The man wore a distinctive mask. Xiao Yan smelt an unusual scent, a familiar fragrance of Green Lustre Orchid. It was spiritual fragrance from Xiao Qingkong’s Yun Mu spirit. Who was the black shadow?
“Jiangyu, let go of Nascent Soul.”
The black shadow floated in the night sky and waved his sleeves to Black Fox. Nine-tailed Fox ducked the black shadow. However desperately Nascent Soul struggled, he still failed to get out of Black Fox’s tail.
“Jiangyu, how have you been?”
“Chidi, since you have been reborn, why don’t you show your face but just like a sink-headed tortoise to hide yourself?”
“Jiangyu, Nascent Soul is your nephew. You should not hit him so hard. But for Nascent Soul’s blood that woke me up, I think I would have to sleep for a year and a half.”
“Chidi, but that you had cheated, I would not have fallen so low as this. Take your life.”
Jiangyu bore down on Chidi, and his nine tails armed with Spirit Power swept past. The city wall was collapsing. Then, Chidi made up a seal, and a bolt of lightning crackled through the sky and split at Black Fox.
Jiangyu rushed to the clouds and ducked the thunderbolt attack. Chidi followed closely.
Foxes were born to fear the thunderbolt. Chidi’s fraudulence irritated Jiangyu. So Jiangyu swept his tails sternly to the enemy. Looking at Chidi’s rampant expression, Jiangyu curled up Chidi and spilt off the cloud. Chidi entangled with Jiangyu fiercely.
Nascent Soul on the city wall looked rather anxious. So he climbed onto the sea of clouds by the wind. To fight against the God of Teal Hill, he had no chance to win the battle openly, but was quite confident to attack sneakily.
Looking at Junior Uncle Grandmaster, Nascent Soul rolled over his sleeves, releasing the blood-sucking bats, and a dark cloud of bats pressed to Jiangyu. How could Black Fox put Nascent Soul into the eyes? Black Fox’s tails swept Nascent Soul lightly to the city wall, and correspondingly, blood-sucking rats fell to the ground with Nascent Soul and disappeared in a blink.
Watching his father fall off the city wall, Phoenix on the city wall descended under the city wall as well and saw his father swallow blood. She waved the Nine-dragon whip at Nine-tailed Fox. Jiangyu struck back. It was too late for Phoenix to escape.
In the shadow, a flash of lightning bashed toward Jiangyu. Then, Black Fox tottered, the body burning with smoke. Glaring at Chidi, Black Fox was transforming. When a girl’s figure appeared, Phoenix looked at the girl in silver armor, the Commander in Chief of the Fairy Kingdom, and thought about her own father who had been beaten badly. Phoenix had a mixed feeling.
In this battle, she lost a lot. Love and friendship were not worthy of mention, compared with the nation’s interest. She could do nothing to stop her beloved one killing her citizens. Standing on the city wall and eying Su Chenyang, Phoenix felt that this battle let her never return to the past.
Wuyou was adrift. The thunderbolt’s blaze was churning in her body, her consciousness increasingly confused. The Ancient Spirit fell into sleep. She was as light as a feather. Or just like a leaf in the wind, she would finally turn again unto dust. “I am so small. This time, I really have to go.”
Su Chenyang’s eyes blurred when seeing the Commander in Chief falling, and he flew to the sky to save her. But Chidi threw another lightning toward the Commander in Chief.
At that moment, a silver giant dragon circled around over the night. Su Chenyang was choking with excitement at the sight of Xu Linghe.
On the cloud, the man in luxurious silk clothes held a lute and shot at Chidi. Spiritual voices revolved around Chidi. Chidi gaped at Xu Linghe in astonishment.
“Brother Su, this is a Pill. You can use it to seal the Commander in Chief’s Original Spirit. Let me meet this black-clothed man.”
Spiritual voices like spells perturbed Chidi’s mind. And Chidi gathered his Spirit Power to Xu Linghe. Xu Linghe erected his black lute, and then spiritual voices warded off the Spirit Power like a barrier.
Su Chenyang guarded the Commander in Chief who was still unconscious with the protection of Spiritual Dose. Commander in Chief lost her usual vigor. The intelligent and strong girl was closing her eyes tightly at that time.
Su Chenyang took out the mauve-jade little fox from his chest and put it into the hands of Xu Linghe. When Xu Linghe saw this little fox jade again, his heart burned with grief. The girl in his arms looked rather pale. Xu Linghe regretted it. If he had chances to choose again, he would be bound to choose to be with her, watching her grow gradually by her side, instead of letting her lose her life again and again.
Xu Linghe’s eyes were chilly. He gently put down the little woman, looked at the black-clothed man on the cloud, and vaulted on the dragon’s back to dash to Chidi. Along the way, his Spirit Power like starlight lit up the whole night sky, which bore unstoppable momentum. Flying swords like meteors stabbed at Chidi’s chest. Spiritual voices accompanying flying swords hit Chidi’s chest. When Chidi felt astounded, Xu Linghe penetrated through Chidi’s body with thundering power.
Nascent Soul on the city wall stared at Junior Uncle Grandmaster and could not believe what he saw was true. Even Jiangyu, one of the four Ancient God, was defeated. How could Chidi be hurt badly by an unknown person? When Xu Linghe caught sight of the man whose mask had been broken, he felt chill welled up from his feet. The man resembled Xu Yinchang, his father so much. The closer Xu Yinchang got to the man, the more shocked he felt. The man could recover his wound in a flash without any trace of blood. “No matter how powerful father was, he just has a common body. How could he bear such furious thump.”
“Junior Uncle Grandmaster, are you all right?”
Under the support of the daughter, Nascent Soul watched Chidi closely. If Junior Uncle Grandmaster died, the Fire Tribe would suffer a crowning calamity. Nascent Soul himself never expected that the youth would be so formidable. Looking at his Junior Uncle Grandmaster’s pale face, Nascent Soul had no way but to surrender to the power.
For the batter today, they seemed to have had the game in their hands, but ended with such a fate. Blame on Xiao Yan, who made the Fire Tribe suffer heavy casualties, and he dared to slip away. If Nascent Soul himself wanted to live, the only way was to open the city gate and set free a tiger back to the mountains. Although it was an unwise decision, he had no other way out.
“Tell your Emperor, I will bring the Commander in Chief to the human’s world.”
“Brother Xu, I will tell His Majesty. I also hope Commander in Chief will be fine soon.”
“Brother Su, this is the Fire Tribe’s surrender letter. Hand it to His Majesty.”
The Commander in Chief had risked her life for the surrender letter. Su Chenyang cherished it into his chest. This battle was absolutely heart-stirring. The Commander in Chief was almost killed in the fight. But for Brother Xu’s assistance, it would have shed blood like rivers.
Although this battle was a victory for the Fairy Kingdom, the two sides suffered countless deaths and injuries. Su Chenyang came out of the city gate and joined the main forces. Looking at Xu Linghe leaving by wind, Su Chenyang wondered when they would meet again. Meanwhile, Phoenix on the city wall burst out crying with tears wetting her clothes, murmuring the name of Su Chenyang in her heart. When she lost sight of that figure, she cried out Su Chenyang’s name loudly. And the night sky reverberated with a girl’s purest love.
Maybe after many years, she could meet a man who loved her and know her. Perhaps a whim would cause a missing forever.
Su Chenyang would never know once a phoenix loved him for hundreds of years. Because of his kindness, a girl lost heart to him. And Phoenix herself would never forget the scene where she was saved by Su Chenyang.
Once in the past, Su Shenyang warmed her beside the fire. It was then that she had a secret affection for him. In order to see Su Chenyang, Phoenix had to conceal her name in the Phoenix Tribe at the very young age. But fate would never grant happiness merely because of so much you had paid. “Let it be... Let it be.” Phoenix turned around and flew back to the barrack.
Nascent Soul looked at his daughter’s back and sighed. Chidi’s spiritual fingers brushed, and then Nascent Soul tortured by the wound recovered himself immediately. Staring at the city wall restored by Chidi, Nascent Soul felt more reluctant to let his Junior Uncle Grandmaster leave. But Chidi had decided to leave. For receding Chidi, Nascent Soul could not stop him. Anyway, Chidi would return to where he should be.
“Junior Uncle Grandmaster, where are you going?”
“Nascent Soul, the Fire Tribe has to rely on itself to become strong. I will go where I should go.”
Nascent Soul felt a bit uneasy. Since Junior Uncle Grandmaster was the backer, what should the Fire Tribe do upon his leaving?
