Chapter 373: Lightning God Forbidden Area vanished
It's disheartening. When you see more comments on a site that has stolen your work, it tells you those readers spit on you. When they thank thieves for the chapter, have engrossing conversations, and support others...It tells us as creators that you do not care for the work we put in.
Out of all the large sites out there, JFB receives probably the least in terms of donations. Doesn't phase us. But the creators that provide you with chapters sometimes 5-10x a week, and you can't even read the chapter on the very platform they put their work on? That is another story. That is you disregarding everything that we are.
Some may ask, 'What is the point of continuing?', if you despise us so much. You rather read from thieves.
To those I see read on Fantasy-Books, with JFB every day, I thank you. I notice you. Sarcht, GonZ555, Mesmerised, Nisem, jppe, Belkar, LightDX, jhodyac, GM_Rusaku, DOHere, Shirou, and a few others. I've noticed you. You have supported Fantasy-books/JFB for a while just from your comments here and there.
And there are a few who have donated. It is you that keep us going. As for those few thousand people (yes, thousands) that spit on us, reading and thanking those that steal from us.
You disgust me. And I'm proud to tell you.
-Sincerely,

Beauty transcending the mortal world. Other than these four words, Long Yi couldn't think of any other words to describe Si Bi's beauty. Long Yi blankly stared at this devastatingly beautiful face without makeup and thought involuntarily, "Is this Si Bi? That saintess Si Bi with an angel's face on the right and devil's face on the left?"
Now, he only saw an exquisite and beautiful face without a single blemish, and just like a washed and starched, clear, cloudless sky, her face was so pure and fresh that it could anyone intoxicated. Her fine jade nose, pink lips, blackened eyebrows and that faint body fragrance similar to the fragrance of a musk deer, everything was in a perfect harmony, bringing out the best in each other. With such a perfect combination of the flawless features on her face, it made Si Bi seem like a goddess.
That blood-red birthmark on the left side of her beautiful face had completely disappeared as if it never existed in the first place, and it was replaced by smooth and tender jade-like skin. Unable to believe what he was seeing, Long Yi reached out his hands to caress Si Bi's face. The only thing he felt was the fine and smooth tactile sensation on the tip of his finger. That birthmark that bothered both Si Bi and him for a long time had truly disappeared. Hereafter, she will no longer have a knot in her heart because of this reason. Currently, if anyone was to compare Si Bi to Long Ling'er and his sister, Wuhen, Si Bi wouldn't lose out in terms of looks. She was in no way inferior to them and she was even pretty enough to make women under the heaven go mad with jealousy.
After caressing her face for a good while, Long Yi reluctantly moved his hand away. Now, his heart was full of satisfaction as he carried Si Bi in his arms and laid her onto the big bed. After placing Si Bi down on the bed, he remembered seeing his cousin Kexin just before he passed out, however, she was nowhere to be seen. He looked all around the Lightning God Temple, but there was not even a trace of her. As such, Long Yi could only give up looking for her as he returned back to the altar.
Looking around the altar, his gaze landed on the broken skeleton which was lying at the edge of the altar. The moment he laid his eyes on the skeleton, Long Yi felt a stinging pain in his heart. He sat next to Long Two and used Restoration Magic as he tried to reassemble Long Two's skeleton. However, Long Two received too much damage and had too many injuries… There was simply no way to restore Long Two back to its normal state.
"Long Two, I'm sorry." Long Yi muttered. Recalling how Long Two had repeatedly stood in front of him to defend him from the lightning god guardians' attacks, he felt sour and astringent in his heart.
Long Yi stared at the pile of skeleton blankly for some time… Long Yi's didn't notice, but when he was staring at Long Two's destroyed body, that faint shadow had appeared inside his sea of consciousness. The shadow looked all around, sizing up Long Yi's sea of consciousness. When it saw the new state of Long Yi's sea of consciousness, it began to laugh strangely before talking to itself, "Wonderful, wonderful, if he obtained the power of the remaining three spirit tablets as well, then that would be perfect! Even I don't know how powerful he will become after fusing all seven divine powers, kekeke, I'm truly looking forward to it…"
The appearance of the shadow in Long Yi's sea of consciousness would naturally be unable to escape his senses. He looked at Long Two for a little while before using his thoughts to ask, "Old fellow, can Long Two be saved?"
"Since this skeleton is broken to such a degree, it is useless even if you use Dark Condensed Magic. What a pity, a skeleton that managed to develop a consciousness… This is something hard to encounter even once in ten thousand years…" The shadow shook its head in regret and said.
"Is there really no other way?" Long Yi was unwilling to give up. Long Yi was adamant about saving Long Two.
The shadow pondered for a little while before suggesting, "It's not like there is no way, the Dark Spirit Crystal Soul this skeleton had fused with has yet to be completely destroyed. However, if things remain as it is, the Dark Spirit Crystal Soul will be destroyed as time goes by. You just need to repair its body using those six demonic dragon horns you obtained from that three-headed demonic dragon."
"No problem, aren't they just six dragon horns?" Long Yi agreed without any hesitation. He had once thought of using these six demonic dragon horns to forge himself a powerful weapon, but as soon as he heard that the six demonic dragon horns were able to save Long Two from being completely destroyed, he instantly gave up on forging a weapon. In any case, he still had the Lightning God armor and weapon, although he couldn't use them yet, he would definitely be able to use them in the future.
"Since that is the case, I will help you once. However, you must return to Lost City's dark space as soon as possible." The shadow mentioned the dark space once again.
"Don't be fussy. I have not forgotten the matter I promised you." Long Yi grinned and said. However, in his heart, he was making lots of guesses on why the shadow wanted him to go to that dark space so badly. This shadow knew the existence of that dark space, but how did he know it? Could it be...
Long Yi shook his head, that shouldn't be the case.
Next, Long Yi threw Long Two's broken-down skeleton and six demonic dragon horns into his dark dimension space as he began the restoration of Long Two's body while listening to the instruction of that shadow.
...…
"Big sister Wushuang, can you sense our husband?" Nalan Ruyue anxiously looked towards Wushuang. They had been waiting here for a very long time, but they were unable to spot any movements at all.
Wushuang shook her head and said nothing, but her complexion was much better compared to before. Not long ago, her heart suddenly shrunk. She thought that she had heard a painful groan coming from Long Yi in her head. However, the most terrifying matter to her wasn't Long Yi's groan, it was that the connection between her and Long Yi broke off all of a sudden, which made her feel absolutely terrified. At that time, her heart completely collapsed as she knew that Long Yi had definitely run into danger. After sensing that the connection between the two of them were lost, she felt extremely stressed and her nerves were taut. Only after feeling that the connection between herself and Long Yi had been reestablished, Wushuang relaxed.
Not far away, Liu Xu who was wearing her skintight scale armor stood with her hands folded in front of her chest. Pang Niu was dozing off as she was wrapped around Liu Xu's shoulders. As for Barbarian Bull, he was sitting near the door, repeatedly wiping his Greenstone rule.
After a good while, little Pang Niu yawned and woke up from her sleep.
"Niu'er, let's go back with your big sister, I don't know when that fellow will come out." Liu Xu patted the little head of Pang Niu and said. Liu Xu didn't know when, but she had also begun to address her sister as Niu'er.
"No, I want to wait for my father to come out." Niu'er didn't agree with her sister and earnestly looked at the door of the Lightning God Temple.
Liu Xu coldly snorted and stood there, jealous. In her heart, she had already cursed Long Yi thousands, if not ten thousands of times. Her only family member was unexpectedly closer to him than herself, so how could she feel good about it?
At this time, the silverish-purple mist in the entire Lightning God Space suddenly changed into purple light. With a flash, the purple light sped into the Lightning God Temple. The moment the purple light entered the temple, the door of the Lightning God Temple which was originally sealed slowly opened with a creak.
Finally, Long Yi appeared in front of Wushuang and others surrounded by a silverish-purple radiance. He still had his signature bad smile on his face and his black hair was flowing off the top of his head. Even though Long Yi looked the same to them, they felt as though he had been separated from them for a very long time.
"Boss, you finally came out! Are you alright?" Barbarian Bull who was sitting beside the door sprang to his feet the moment Long Yi appeared. His bull eyes were full of excitement and a faint glow was also visible.
Long Yi patted the shoulder of Barbarian Bull and said with a smile, "What kind of person do you think I, your boss am? This trifling Lightning god Temple can be regarded as a fart in front of me." Long Yi boasted. Long Yi had no idea what the Lightning God would have thought if he heard these words. In fact, the Lightning God might regret passing on the Lightning God inheritance to Long Yi.
Barbarian Bull continuously nodded his head. He had already divinized Long Yi in his heart, and he subconsciously felt that there was nothing in this world Long Yi was incapable of.
"My husband." Nalan Ruyue dashed over, bringing the sweet fragrance of a young woman with her and rushed into his bosom. She didn't care if there were anyone watching them, the only thing she knew was that Long Yi came out of the Lightning God Temple safely.
Long Yi stroke the back of Nalan Ruyue as he looked towards Wushuang. Even without exchanging words, they knew what the other was thinking.
"Big sister Ruyue, aren't you done yet? Father has yet to hug me!" Niu'er's immature voice resounded in everyone's ears. She had already endured for a long time, but now, Niu'er was no longer able to keep quiet after seeing that Long Yi was safe.
Nalan Ruyue awkwardly left Long Yi's embrace as she stared at Niu'er. In the blink of an eye, Niu'er was hanging on Long Yi's neck with her face in his chest. She rubbed her small head against his chest as she refused to let go of Long Yi.
"Ya... you all..." Nalan Ruyue retreated and exclaimed. She suddenly saw three women behind Long Yi, Naturally, they were Si Bi, Leng Youyou, and Feng Ling. However, she didn't manage to recognize a single one of them. As a matter of fact, Si Bi and her were saintesses of the Light Church, and they had seen each other before. However, every time they met, Si Bi was wearing a hood, which didn't allow Nalan Ruyue to see her face. As such, even though another one of the Light Church's saintess was standing in front of her, she was unable to recognize her. Not to mention that Si BI had changed into an outstanding beauty. Even though Si Bi was wearing a priestess robe, no one dared to confirm her identity as she looked really different from before.
Long Yi moved sideways and allowed everyone to look at the three women who were standing behind him.
"Wushuang... you came back? My husband, why didn't you tell me?" Leng Youyou was pleasantly surprised to see Wushuang and she immediately rushed over to her.
Wushuang was startled and she looked towards Long Yi for help. Her memories were still lost and she wasn't able to recognize who was Leng Youyou.
<< fantasy-books Property >>
Long Yi walked over with a wry smile and explained the situation. After that, he introduced both Feng Ling and Si Bi to everyone. However, for an unknown reason, Feng Ling was in low spirits ever since she woke up. She hugged Long Yi and had cried bitterly for a long time.
After learning that the beautiful woman wearing a priestess robe was actually Si Bi, Nalan Ruyue didn't dare to believe her eyes. Who didn't know that Saintess Si Bi of the Proud Moon Empire had a large blood-red birthmark on the left side of her cheek? However, when she looked at Si Bi currently, both the left and right side of her face was spotlessly white, without any blemish, which made her face seem like the most beautiful jade in this world. If she were to honestly compare herself with Si Bi who was standing in front of her, she had to admit that Si Bi was indeed prettier than herself.
Even Si Bi was unwilling to believe that the birthmark on her face had disappeared. As such, it was not surprising that other people were shocked when they looked at her. When she woke up on the soft bed Long Yi had taken out, she saw Long Yi staring at her with a warm smile from the bedside. At that time, she felt that the world was beautiful like never before, being able to keep her life and see her beloved in front of her as soon as she woke up, she was incomparably satisfied. However, she was shocked when Long Yi took out a magic mirror and showed her the changes to her face. Seeing the delicate and goddess-like appearance reflected on the magic mirror, Si Bi trembled and raised her little hands to touch her face, unable to believe what she was seeing. At that moment, she wept. She practically thought that she was dreaming and didn't even dare to blink her eyes fearing that everything would disappear like a soap bubble as soon as she blinked.
Suddenly, the entire Lightning God Space began to rumble and fluctuate. Then the huge Lightning God Temple began to fade and dissipate and waves after waves of space distortion appeared in front of them.
It was not only the Lightning God Space, this situation appeared in the entire Lightning God Forbidden Area. The scenery inside began to vanish into thin air and everyone inside the Lightning God Forbidden Area felt like their heads were spinning.
The entrance of the Lightning God Forbidden Area also undergone a huge change the moment the Lightning God Temple disappeared. The boulder where the four words, 'Lightning God Forbidden Area' written in large words suddenly disintegrated, changing into powder. After the boulder disappeared, a silverish-purple mist emerged from the entrance of the Lightning God Forbidden Area and blocked the already dim light coming from the hazy moon.
Fortunately, this mist slowly dissipated quickly and everything settled down in a short period of time. All the people stationed in front of the Lightning God Forbidden Area were stunned. The entrance of the Lightning God Forbidden Area disappeared, and rows of towering trees grew out from the ground. Now, this place was covered densely with leafy shade and was full of overgrown bushes with brambles. Wasn't this just a pristine forest now?
"Someone has definitely completed the mission of the Lightning God Forbidden Area." Someone realized what had happened and quickly shouted. As a result, they competed to notify others, and some adventurers groups began to rush into the pristine forest in the front. All of them were blind with greed and wanted to snatch the spoils of war from the troops what had completed the mission.

The trees were dark green, shaded by foliage and a faint smell of plants surrounded this place. Moreover, birds cheerfully sang among the trees as their chirps filled the air. Coupled with the gurgling sound of spring water, it was music to the ears.
Currently, Long Yi who had left the Lightning God Temple was taking a deep breath with an intoxicated expression on his face. The familiar sight of greenery and the fragrance of nature relaxed Long Yi's mind and body. After being in the Lightning God Forbidden Area for so long, Long Yi had almost forgotten the feeling of being surrounded by natural greenery again.
"Well, we are finally out of that damned Lightning God Forbidden Area. It has already been quite a few days since I last smelled meat… My mouth seemed to have already forgotten the taste of eating meat." Long Yi looked pleased with himself as he said.
"Yes, yes, father, I want to eat roasted meat! I want lots and lots of meat!" As soon as Niu'er heard Long Yi mention the word 'meat', her eyes shone and she immediately began to drool.
"If you want to eat roasted meat, then go get the materials." Long Yi quickly instructed Niu'er as he patted her head lovingly.
Niu'er immediately entered the forest to catch their meal along with the Violent Lightning Beast, Fire Qilin and Little Three. While the four of them went to catch beasts for Long Yi to cook, Long Yi led everyone over to the side of a water source not too far away from them. Long Yi led everyone to the edge of a cliff which seemed to be made up by huge rocks stacked on top of each other as they got ready to cook their first meal after leaving the Lightning God Forbidden Area. On that cliff, there were many holes and seams from which clear spring water flowed down. A curtain of mist formed whenever a gust of wind blew onto the cascading water, which created a refreshing breeze when it blew onto the faces of Long Yi and the rest. This gave them a nice and cool feeling and revitalized the group who just came out of the Lightning God Forbidden Area.
"Wow, this place is truly beautiful. If we can live here for a long period of time, how nice would that be!" Nalan Ruyue exclaimed with admiration. She, who was accustomed to the sight of the vigorous and vast sea, felt at home when she saw the pretty sight of this refreshing body of water.
"If you want to live in a place for a long time, then go to the Elven Forest. The scenery in the Elven Forest is much more beautiful than this place." Long Yi laughed. Whenever Long Yi thought of the Elven Forest, he couldn't help thinking about that fairyland-like scenery and his cute Elf Princess Lu Xiya. Of course, there was also someone else he thought of other than his cute Lu Xiya, it was the sexy Elf Queen. Those perfectly round and plump buttocks truly were the best under the heavens.
"Pervert, you're always letting your imagination run wild!" Looking at Long Yi's infatuated ** expression, Wushuang immediately knew that he was thinking about some other woman again. A sense of disgust rose in her heart as she imagined Long Yi thinking about other women.
Long Yi came back to his senses looked around. Seeing all the other women around him were staring at him with disdain in their eyes and killing intent slowly leaking out of them, he laughed hollowly and changed the subject of conversation, "What are you all planning to do next?"
"Naturally, go back. After Niu'er finish eating, I am taking her back with me to the Illusory Forest." Liu Xu happily expressed her plans of leaving.
Long Yi frowned and said, "How about roaming around the Blue Waves Continent with us? Aren't you bored of staying in the Illusory Forest every day?"
Liu Xu shook her head. Raising pretty face with a proud and aloof expression on it, she lowered her voice and said, "Although that Dragon Clan elder let us go for the moment, that doesn't mean that we wouldn't meet other members of the Dragon Clan. Niu'er has yet to grow up and my strength is also not enough to protect her. There's no way I can take the risk of roaming around under these circumstances, what if we accidentally run into a member of the Dragon Clan?"
Long Yi was startled and nodded his head, "That is also true. The Dragon Clan has a special way to track your aura, not to mention that I'm currently not in possession of the Light God's spirit tablet. This is indeed a risk we can't take."
After he woke up, Long Yi discovered that both the light spirit tablet and dark spirit tablet were missing. As Long Yi thought about why he wasn't able to see Dongfang Kexin and Feng Ling after he woke up, adding on to Feng Ling' strange behavior, he managed to connect the dots. Long Yi was able to roughly guess what happened to the two tablets, but after considering Feng Ling's feelings, he didn't take the initiative to mention what happened to the two tablets.
"Long Yi, I want to return to the Moxi clan. I haven't returned for a very long time." Si Bi warmly looked at Long Yi with a yearning look in her eyes as she said..
"My husband, Lingr and I have to return to the Dark Church, you should go with Si Bi." Leng Youyou leaned on Long Yi and said.
As for Nalan Ruyue and Barbarian Bull, they will follow Long Yi wherever he goes.
Long Yi thought for a bit. In any case, if he wanted to accompany Wushuang to Lost City, it would be better to enter the Huangmang Plain from the entrance of Proud Moon Empire's northern part. If he entered the Huangmang Plain from the northern part of Proud Moon Empire, he would be able to accompany Si Bi, Leng Youyou, and Lingr. There was a chance he would be able to go to the Hengduan Mountains and Mea Principality to take a look at Long'er and Wuhen on the way as well.
"Fine, I will go to Proud Moon Empire together with you all. However, I wonder what is the current situation of Blue Waves Continent." Long Yi said with a smile. He still didn't know that it had already been more than half a year outside and the flame of wars had already spread throughout the entire Blue Waves Continent.
——————
On the year 8788, 22nd day of the 12th month, it had already been more than five months since Long Yi had entered the Lightning God Forbidden Area. Troops belonging to the Violent Dragon Empire and the Nalan Empire were pressing on their attack on the Proud Moon Empire every passing day. Since the attack started, Proud Moon Empire had lost several cities and several thousand li of their territory. During this time, eight principalities and several tens of small kingdoms that were attached to the Proud Moon Empire dispatched troops to assist the Proud Moon Empire in the war. However, all the principalities and small kingdoms attached to the other two empires had also sent their troops to participate in this war. At this stage, in Blue Waves Continent, other than the Hengduan Mountains as well as other remote areas, the flames of war had already swept through the entire Blue Waves Continent. Countless cities were turned into ruins, countless common people became destitute and homeless, and in an extremely short period of half a year, Blue Waves Continent lost many young warriors and soldiers. Of course, the casualties in the war didn't only involve soldiers, several million innocent people were also massacred by the armies of the empires.
Although the main battlefields were concentrated in the Proud Moon Empire, as well as border principalities and kingdoms, cities which were destroyed and changed to ruins were not limited to those places. The border villages and cities of both the Violent Dragon Empire and the Nalan Empire were frequently massacred and plundered by the light cavalry of the Proud Moon Empire. Proud Moon Empire, who was already forced into a hopeless situation, was unusually united from the top to the bottom. They changed their city defense strategy and began to launch attacks on both the Nalan Empire and Violent Dragon Empire. Fuelled by the rage of being invaded by the other two empires, the Proud Moon Empire's troops left a mountain of corpses in their wake. They adopted the fierce extermination strategy. They didn't confront the troops of the other two empires, instead they especially attacked and killed unarmed common people regardless of gender and age.
This kind of guerrilla warfare made both the Nalan and Violent Dragon Empire extremely stressed. Their actions served to add oil to the already burning fire as the troops of the other two empires intensified their attacks. The sad news of the death of their beloved ones coming from the rear stimulated the ferocious nature of the soldiers from both empires. Every time they captured a city from the Proud Moon Empire, the troops would massacre every single person in the city, down to the last dog. The actions of the armies were making the entire Blue Waves Continent insane as the violence escalated time after time.
Currently, the reputation of the Violent Dragon Empire's Unparalleled Battalion was already like the sun at high noon. Their name alone could terrify the troops of the Proud Moon Empire. At the same time, the Unparalleled Battalion was deeply respected by the troops of either army. As Unparalleled Battalion had an iron-clad military discipline, they were the only troop to adopt appeasing means after capturing a city. They would never harm the lives of the innocent people inside the city, but against their enemies of the other empire, they would carry out a bloody slaughter, completely opposite of how they treated the innocent.
The vice battalion commander of Unparalleled Battalion, Tyrant Bear, has slaughtered more than ten thousand enemy soldiers in the short span of five months. Everyone gave him the title, 'Violent Bear Slaughter God'. As for Beitang Yu, due to her intelligence and cold-blooded means, she gained the title of 'Hell Angel'.
<< fantasy-books Property >>
At this moment, in the city lord mansion of a captured city, Beitang Yu was looking at the military map hanging on the wall. From time to time, she would make gestures with her little hand and there would be a complex expression on her face, signaling that she was deep in thought.
"General Beitang, Violent Dragon Legion's vice-commander, Ximen Tian, sends the military report." Nangong Nu who was wearing a suit of armor entered the room and made a report. The flames of war had already made this wimpy kid of former days change into a real soldier. Now, his back was straightened, he had sharp eyes, and killing intent oozed out of every pore of his body.
"Let me take a look." Beitang Yu's eyebrows rose and she took the sealed magic bamboo tube from Nangong Nu. Regarding the governing of the Unparalleled Battalion, Tyrant Bear had already given full authority to Beitang Yu. She was allowed to do anything she wished and she was able to command anyone she wanted. This clearly exhibits the position of Beitang Yu in the Unparalleled Battalion.
After quickly reading through the contents of the report, Beitang Yu sneered and exerted some force in her dainty hands. The report turned into fine powder in her hands as her eyes radiated killing intent. With a cold voice, she said, "Vice commander asked us, the Unparalleled Battalion, to make a detour and carry out a sneak attack on Jing'an City. Humph, does he think I still don't know what he's thinking? Although Jing'an is merely a second tier city, there are several military camps stationed around that city. If the sneak attack failed, then we will fall into a situation where we will be besieged from all sides. At that time, if vice commander came slightly late to the rescue, then we, the Unparalleled Battalion, will be unable to escape and will definitely be wiped out."
"General Beitang, then what should we do?" Nangong Nu asked.
"Tell a messenger to deliver this oral message. Tell the vice commander that the Unparalleled Battalion have just finished sieging a city, and the troops are tired and need to rest. As such, he should request another battalion to siege Jing'an City." Beitang Yu sneered and said. Although the Unparalleled Battalion was inside the organizational system of the Violent Dragon Legion, the Unparalleled Battalion was an absolute independent battalion. Long Yi had once said that even if Emperor Long Zhan issued an order, they don't need to give a damn about it.
Nangong Nu received the order and left. After seeing that Nangong Nu had left to relay her order, Beitang Yu turned to look at the military map on the wall again. Now, the Unparalleled Battalion was just like a sharp knife that was piercing through the Proud Moon Empire. As for the other big legions, they had fanned out to the wings, with the Unparalleled Battalion in the center.
"We cannot penetrate further, in case someone stabs us from the back, that would be troublesome." Looking at the military map, Beitang Yu muttered. The Unparalleled Battalion was her sweetheart's, so she must manage it carefully. If she were to make a mess out of the battalion her sweetheart created, she would be embarrassed to look at him.
Beitang Yu sat on a high-backed chair. Suddenly, Long Yi's face with a bad smile when he was in her bedchamber appeared. In the next moment, Long Yi's grim handsome face when he was in the military camp appeared in front of her eyes. She was completely infatuated with him. It can be said that Long Yi was the military soul of the Unparalleled Battalion. Every single one of his actions and moves, the way he spoke, these were the things which made all the officers and men of the Unparalleled Battalion feel united together.
————
Late at night, Long Yi with his half-closed eyes leaned against a big tree outside his tent. He had turned a deaf ear to the fight which was ongoing far away.
Because of the disappearance of the Lightning God Forbidden Area, everyone knew that someone had completed the mission. As such, groups of greedy adventurer groups began to search high and low for the lucky groups that survived, leading to continuous clashes.
Long Yi wasn't interested in these things. In any case, as long as they didn't provoke him, he was too lazy to care about the life or death of others.
"Tonight, whose tent should I go to? Youyou's? Wushuang's?" Long Yi's heart was burning. He thought about that devilish figure of Leng Youyou, before changing his thoughts to Wushuang's supple and smooth skin. Looking at all the options before him, Long Yi was unable to come to a decision. Long Yi dared to guarantee that no one would reject him regardless of whichever tent he entered. Just the thought of this made his mind wander with thoughts of sleeping together with everyone at the same time.
Just when Long Yi was cracking his head, a lonely and slender back view reflected in the eyes of Long Yi. Her long light blue hair was fluttering in the night wind, she was none other than Feng Ling. She flew to the top of a big tree and sat at the top of that tree, facing the wind.
Chapter 375: Fulfilling the wedding night
Long Yi looked up and facing each other, he was able to feel the faint grief coming from Feng Ling. She appeared just like a piece of a fallen leaf which might be blown away by the slightest wind at any moment.
"It is already so late at night, did you come to enjoy the beautiful full moon?" Long Yi's gaze quietly rose to the sky and he stood behind Feng Ling with a warm smile on his face.
Feng Ling directed her gaze upwards, but she was only able to see a crescent moon in the night sky, moreover, it was covered with a layer of cloud at this moment, making it look gloomy and lusterless. She softly sighed and bit her lower lip as she softly asked, "Why aren't you asking what happened to me?"
"Because I know you will tell me on your own." Long Yi still had a smile plastered on his face. However, his eyes flashed with tenderness as he was watching Feng Ling.
Feng Ling felt warm inside when she heard what Long Yi said to her, and her eyes moistened as tears threatened to gush out. She fought back the tears again and again. However, she broke down in the end as she plunged into Long Yi's bosom and bawled her eyes out, releasing all her pent up emotions.
Long Yi didn't say a word as he simply placed his hand on Feng Ling's back, patting her back, allowing her to vent her grief to her heart's content.
After a good while, Feng Ling slowly stopped crying, and tightly hugging Long Yi's waist, she leaned on him in silence. Simply being beside Long Yi made her feel at ease.
"My husband, actually… actually, the dark spirit tablet is missing because of me…" Feng Ling finally gathered her courage and opened her mouth.
"Mmm." Long Yi softly responded without any change in his expression.
Feng Ling's head who was burrowed in Long Yi's chest looked up as she stared into his eyes. To her surprise, Long Yi had a faint smile on his face and he showed that he had no intentions of blaming her for anything that happened.
"That time, I really didn't know..." Feng Ling became a bit calmer and began to narrate what actually happened back then.
In the beginning, Long Yi still maintained his carefree expression and still felt at ease when he heard what Feng Ling said, but when he heard the Dark Pope made an Emerald Magic Bird sealed within her body forcibly break out of her body and sweep away the dark spirit tablet, the corner of his mouth twitched a little. As a matter of fact, the reason why Feng Ling was dazed in the first place was because the Dark Pope whom she respected the most used such a ruthless move on her. However, Long Yi was confused. Even if that was the case, Feng Ling shouldn't have such a big reaction unless she had a very deep feeling towards the Dark Pope.
Long Yi held onto Feng Ling and sat beside her on the top of the big tree. In his heart, he came to a conclusion about the relationship between Feng Ling and the Dark Pope. The identity of Feng Ling in the Dark Church had always been very mysterious, not even Leng Youyou knew her status. Could it be that Feng Ling is the daughter of the Dark Pope? However, according to Leng Youyou, the Dark Pope didn't have any other children other than a single son. Long Yi was curious, but since Feng Ling didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask. He believed that she would absolutely tell him everything when she was ready. Since she wasn't ready yet, Long Yi saw no point in forcing her to talk about it.
Seeing as Feng Ling still had a grief-stricken face, Long Yi frowned. Suddenly, a bad smile appeared on his face. In the next moment, Long Yi's hand which was holding onto Feng Ling's slender waist began moving restlessly. In order to divert Feng Ling's attention from thinking about the Dark Pope, Long Yi decided to make her think of him instead.
The big hand of Long Yi gently stroke Feng Ling's sensitive waist, and she was able to feel the heat coming from his palm which was currently running itself all over her skin. The reassuring warm feeling coming from Long Yi's palm lead to a ** numb feeling in Feng Ling's body.
Feng Ling's breathing suddenly sped up as she was beginning to feel nervous. Although she was in an intimate relationship with Long Yi at the moment, they had yet to take the final step. This was because at that time in Soaring Dragon City, after kowtowing to the Heavens and the Earth, she left in a rush. As a result, she remained a virgin maiden up till now, and naturally, she was unable to endure Long Yi's teasing.
"My husband..." Feng Ling half-closed her eyes, as her breath became heavy. Tiny beads of sweat formed on the top of her skin as she flushed red from her cheeks to her neck. Especially when Long Yi blew into her earlobe, her entire body heated up and became restless.
Long Yi's hand gradually moved upwards and reached towards the pair of towering jade peaks on Feng Ling's chest. Next, he circled around the perfectly round chest of Feng Ling. His skillful and seasoned teasing technique suddenly made Feng Ling's soul fly far, far away.
<< fantasy-books Property >>
Feng Ling swayed as she was unable to bear the emptiness within her body. The teasing of her sweetheart made her passion burn even hotter than she had ever felt in her life. However, Long Yi was just like a mischievous child, he avoided the places where she needed him to pay attention to the most… His teasing made her feel uneasy all over, not to mention the large wet spot forming on Feng Ling's pants.
"My husband, you are so hateful." Feng Ling opened her half-closed eyes as she stared at Long Yi. Grumbling in a flirty manner, she turned her whole body around and sat on Long Yi's lap. Hugging Long Yi's neck with her long slender hands, she planted a kiss on his lips.
This completely unexpected surprise attack from Feng Ling caught Long Yi unprepared and before he could respond to the kiss from Feng Ling, her cute little tongue had already pushed past his jaws and entered his mouth. With her tongue assaulting Long Yi's mouth from the inside, she forced Long Yi into a passive state from his initial aggressive state.
Feng Ling's initiative pleasantly surprised Long Yi. Although men liked to take initiative when showing their love to their beloved one, sometimes, the initiative from the girls' side could give them greater stimulation.
At the current moment, Feng Ling was like a cat in heat. She desperately kissed Long Yi while she swayed in Long Yi's embrace and she rubbed her exquisite body along Long Yi's sturdy body. Her firm and soft ** pressed up against the chest of Long Yi with only thin layers of clothes separating them. Moreover, her tight-fitting pants that drew the perfect outline of her buttocks moved with increasing vigor. The heat and hardness of Long Yi's private part was just like a heaven supporting pillar which drove Feng Ling mad.
As the battle began to escalate, both of them began the expedition to conquer each other's body. As if it was a race, both of them attacked each other's body with increasing speed and urgency.
"Ah..." Feng Ling suddenly screamed. As they were too engrossed in 'battling' each other, their movements became too intense and they fell from the very small tree top.
As they were falling, Long Yi hugged Feng Ling before stopping in mid air. Like a gust of wind, Long Yi who had Feng Ling in his arms rushed into his tent. Due to Feng Ling's teasing, Long Yi couldn't help but feel the urge rising up in him. The only thing Long Yi could think of now was to eat Feng Ling up.
Bang, with a light toss, Long Yi threw Feng Ling onto the soft big bed before crashing on top of her.
The long sea-blue hair of Feng Ling swung, and she immediately turned sideways to lie on the bed. With one of her arm, she supported her head, propping it high enough for her to stare straight into Long Yi's eyes. She was met with a bad smile from Long Yi as he stared back at her. At this moment, her clothes were in a mess and her lapel was wide open. The light blue brassiere she was wearing was unable to hide her ** that appeared as if they wanted to burst out of her undergarment at any moment. Those dazzling meat buns as well as that deep ravine which was squeezed out were sufficient to make any men under the heavens go insane.
Seeing the unbridled gaze of Long Yi, Feng Ling's heart palpitated and her entire body quivered as if her entire body was being caressed by Long Yi. Especially when his burning gaze scanned over her chest and between her legs, she felt as though she was unable to bear it anymore and wanted Long Yi to ** her that instant..
All of a sudden, Feng Ling felt as though her lips were dry and involuntarily stuck out her tongue to lick her dry lips. However, this made the situation even more ** as she didn't know that this action was extremely seductive, especially under this kind of ambiguous circumstances.
Long Yi involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva and his starry eyes suddenly become deep and serene. He unhurriedly stepped forward and sat on the bedside, using one hand to tilt Feng Ling's chin upwards and staring into her eyes, Long Yi asked in a hoarse voice, "You little devil, are you intentionally seducing me?"
The beautiful face of Feng Ling become hot and she wanted to avert her gaze. However, Long Yi's gaze currently had the attractive force of a black hole. Feng Ling was unable to keep her eyes off him as she stared at him without saying a word. She just bit her lower lip, but her eyes had coquettish allure as she said, "You are my husband, if I don't seduce you, then who should I seduce? Did you forget, you still owe me a wedding night."
After hearing what she said, Long Yi's heart shook. Yes, he still owed this girl a wedding night. However, just as Long Yi though to make a move and give Feng Ling what she wanted, she had already made her move. She grabbed the big hand of Long Yi that was supporting her chin and slowly placed it on her towering chest with her eyes rippling intoxicated stirrings of love.
With only thin silk brassiere separating both their bodies, Long Yi could feel that soft and full meat bun on his palm. After that, he pinched and kneaded her ** with just enough force while clamping her swelling ** between his fingers, provoking sexy and soul-stirring moans from Feng Ling.
"Today, your husband will properly fulfill the wedding night I owe you." Long Yi said in a hoarse voice and pushed her down onto the bed forcefully.
The sound of clothes fluttering about immediately resounded in the tent as the two of them tore the clothes off each other's back like savage animals. Before long, the two of them didn't have a single shred of cloth covering their body. They come into contact with each other in the most intimate way possible, and their passion immediately went out of hand.
Long Yi explored and teased the peerlessly beautiful ** body of Feng Ling. From her spotlessly white jade neck all the way down to her **, he sucked one of her pink pearl while teasing the other ** with one of his hand.
"My husband… I… don't tease me anymore!" Feng Ling arched up her waist as she urgently needed Long Yi to comfort her.
"Darling, don't worry, I have yet to kiss every inch of your body." Long Yi raised his head and said with a smile. Turning over Feng Ling, her bare back completely laid bare in front of him.
Long Yi was dazzled all of a sudden. Looking at her smooth and translucent back, perfect spine, plump and smooth buttocks which were sticking out, everything was simply too perfect. Long Yi leaned forward and his lips and tongue moved towards her smooth back, Long Yi was going to make sure he didn't miss a single spot.
After a little while, the lips of Long Yi arrived at Feng Ling's snowy buttocks. He could smell a faint delicate virgin fragrance from the cracks of her buttocks. Long Yi knew that the passion in Ling Feng had already awoken long ago.
Long Yi parted Feng Ling's thighs and the private parts of a maiden where fine hair was spread all over appeared before his eyes. That place was already wet long ago with spring dew.
Long Yi used his hand to stir around, and drew a long string of lewd juice.
"Hateful husband." At this moment, Feng Ling suddenly turned and sat up, with a slight push, she pinned Long Yi down onto the bed as she straddled his waist. She grabbed little Long Yi with her right hand as she sat down on it all of a sudden.
"Ah… so painful." Feng Ling hissed in pain. She had not prepared herself when she sat down which made little Long Yi completely enter her.
Long Yi came back to his sense when he heard Feng Ling's cry of pain. Sitting up, he hugged Feng Ling and said softly, "Silly girl, why on earth are you so hasty? Do you think your husband will actually run away?"
"Who told you to keep teasing me? I don't want to wait any longer, I want to be your real wife." Feng Ling answered in a charming voice as she gave Long Yi a tight hug. Feeling little Long Yi's existence within her body, she felt very happy despite the pain.
After calming down, the pain Feng Ling felt at the beginning began to mitigate and was replaced by the ** pleasure. However, she saw that Long Yi wasn't moving which made her take the initiative instead. She raised her waist, before sitting down again, and repeated the action again and again. Her movements became more and more rapid as she felt a stronger and stronger sensation of pleasure swelling up in her.
Long Yi wanted to lay Feng Ling down and take charge, but she didn't comply and said, "Today, you are making up my bridal chamber, so I have the final say."
Long Yi readily agreed to her and without exerting himself, he simply lied down. He simply held onto Feng Ling's waist as she turned into a horsewoman. From time to time, Long Yi would give her tips for her to improve her 'skills' and make the ** feeling much stronger.
One had to say that making love was the natural instinct of humans. Within a few moments, Feng Ling's skills improved drastically. Among the skills she learned, she unexpectedly learned the first-class skill of squirming inside and shrinking outside without a teacher, making Long Yi sigh endlessly.
After battling a few rounds with Long Yi, Feng Ling was unable to continue going/ However, Long Yi was a man after all, and he didn't like to let the woman do all the work. Flipping Feng Ling over, he restored his manly 'power' and prestige, making the bold and resolute Feng Ling beg for mercy.
...
"Don't leave me, don't leave me." Feng Ling who had fallen into a deep sleep muttered as she tightened her grip on Long Yi who was beside her.
Long Yi pulled Feng Ling into his bosom and softly said, "No, I will not leave you, I will always be there to accompany you."
As if she heard Long Yi's words, the knitted brows of Feng Ling loosened, and a trace of a sweet smile appeared on her face.
"Dark Pope, Light Pope, heh heh..." Long Yi coldly laughed as a trace of unbridled killing intent emerged in his eyes.
Chapter 376: Exterminate all, leave none behind (Part one)
The night quietly passed and first rays of the morning sun passed through the overhead branches and leaves, bringing a hint of warmth to this gloomy and cold wilderness.
At this time, a fiery shadow quickly skittered over and stopped at the edge of a clear stream. With a fiery red leather armor plastered to her figure, the Scarlet Blood Bow hanging from her arms, and a devilish body figure, who else could it be but Red Lady?
Red Lady squatted down and washed her face with the clear water running in the steam. After freshening up, she stared at her own reflection in the water blankly. In the water, she saw her own beautiful face looking back at her. The face was beautiful and bewitching, and could be said to be matchless among her peers. Even though her face was still incomparably beautiful, it was much colder and there were great changes from her old face. This time, during the mission of the Lightning God Forbidden Area, several thousand people of her Lightning Mercenary Group and Iron Blooded Mercenary Group were completely wiped out. However, the thing that hurt her the most was Ye Changli's assault. If not for that divine lightning falling from the heaven which struck him dead, she feared that even if she had died, she wouldn't be able to rest in peace.
"Now, what course should I follow?" Red Lady muttered. She was living on the border of life and death again, but this time, she was on her own. Her heart involuntarily shuddered as she was at a loss of what to do.
At that time, not far away behind Red Lady, an adventure group consisting of 30 people appeared. They seemed to be the vanguard of a certain mercenary group.
"Vice commander, she is the commander of the Lightning Mercenary Group, Red Lady. Look at those **, they are truly of the best quality." A wretched earth Advance Magician drooled while looking at Red Lady's buttocks which were perfectly outlined because she was squatting down.
This vice commander was a Great Swords Master. He was also staring at Red Lady without even blinking his eyes. As long as they were men, they coveted this beauty in front of them as she was peerlessly beautiful. However, they had never been able to touch her since she was an SS-ranked mercenary. The feeling of only being able to look at something they desired to possess was like a child in front of a candy shop, helpless. Not to mention the entire Lightning Mercenary Group behind her, which made her even harder to obtain. With such a huge backing, no man had ever mustered enough courage to even hit on her.
"Don't talk nonsense, otherwise, even on your deathbed, you wouldn't know how you died. We still cannot afford to provoke her." The vice commander shifted his gaze and reprimanded his subordinate.
"Wait a minute, vice commander, what if the Lightning God spirit tablet and Lightning God eyeball are in her possession? Their Lightning Mercenary Group and Iron Blooded Mercenary Group are very powerful, perhaps, they were to ones who completed this mission." That wretched earth magician's small eyes flashed as he said.
The vice commander hesitated upon hearing this. All of a sudden, he felt that the possibility of that happening was extremely high.
"Vice commander, look around, she is alone. It is very likely that both mercenary groups were completely wiped out. Although she is an SS-ranked mercenary, we have 30 people with us. Moreover, the commander and the others are not far behind us, as long as we send a signal before we make a move, they will definitely rush over here to help us. As long as we stall her for a little while, she will be unable to escape even if she was given wings. Not to mention that the commander doesn't even care about women… So after we capture her wouldn't this girl...." The appearance of the earth magician appeared even more wretched. He spared no effort in convincing his vice commander to make a move to capture Red Lady as he had been lusting over Red Lady for a long time now. His thought was, once the vice commander ate the meat, wouldn't he also be able to drink some soup?
"This… your words make sense, we will surround her and you will send the signal to notify commander and others to rush over." Having heard what the earth magician said, the eyes of vice commander shone as he stared at Red Lady in front of him. Scanning her up and down, his gaze became even hotter as the fire in him was ignited. Yes, even if Red Lady was powerful, how could she take the 30 of them from the Windstorm Mercenary Group on alone? No matter what anyone says, Windstorm Mercenary Group was also barely considered an A-ranked mercenary group. Despite being an A-ranked mercenary group, they were at the bottom of this rank.
The vice commander ordered the team of 30 people to immediately spread out and surround her, cutting off her route of escape. Magicians at the rear began to prepare their magic spells and three thieves used their Concealing Skill to disappear into the thin air. Everyone began to slowly close in on Red Lady from all directions.
Red Lady who was immersed in her thoughts slightly raised her head and her beautiful eyes emitted a trace of killing intent. She had already noticed that dozens of people were watching her from behind, but she had never expected them to attack her. At this moment, the three stealthily moving thieves had already arrived just five steps away from her, and everyone secretly signaled each other, planning to carry out a sneak attack at the same time.
Siiing, a cold light suddenly flashed. Along with a full 180 degrees turn from Red Lady, a gloomy and cold full moon of death was formed. The three thieves didn't even have time to scream as their throats were already cut off and blood spurted several meters high as they weakly collapsed to the ground.
Red Lady didn't stop for even a moment. The Scarlet Blood Bow on her shoulder had already appeared on her left hand, and her right hand quickly drew the bowstring. Three arrows made up of fire magic elements made three perfect arcs, shooting towards the place where the magicians were concentrating to prepare their magic spells. Suddenly, three explosion sounds resounded. Dozens of towering trees were broken into pieces and they collapsed to the ground, giving rise to continuous blood-curdling screams. Among the 30 mercenaries of the Windstorm Mercenary Group, there were only 5-6 of them left standing at the moment. It had only been a moment since the battle started, and Red Lady had already annihilated more than half of them in an instant.
Red Lady sneered at the rest of the Windstorm Mercenaries as she took advantage of the chaos caused by the falling trees to get away. As quickly as lightning, she fled from the Windstorm Mercenaries through the opening she had created. She knew the Windstorm Mercenary Group. This was a mercenary group with a bad reputation that was at the bottom of the A-ranked mercenary groups. They especially did a number of evil things like stealing chickens and dogs, plundering, and so on. However, they had true strength to back themselves up. She knew that she wouldn't be able to contend against the entire Windstorm Mercenary Group by herself, so retreating was the best option at this moment.
"After killing my brothers, do you think you can leave?" At that moment, dark blue douqi came from several directions, forcing Red Lady to return to where she was.
After the smoke dispersed and dust settled, Red Lady was already completely surrounded by several tens of Swords Masters. Among them, there were three Great Swords Masters, who were the commander, vice commander, and a middle aged big fellow that appeared to be more than 40 years of age. Behind the Swords Masters, there were Advance Fighters, Intermediate Fighters and other relatively low-leveled fighters. At the back was where all the magicians were. They casted magic barriers to protect their peers and Magic Archers were stationed behind them. Facing such a battle formation, even a Swords Saint might not be able to gain the upper hand easily.
The heart of Red Lady sunk, but her beautiful face still had a charming smile that could overturn all living creatures. With a soft voice, she said, "Yo, if this isn't the Windstorm Mercenary Group. Is it necessary to use such a big battle formation to deal with this little girl?"
With a single sentence from her, a number of weak willed mercenaries lost themselves in their charming smile and sweet voice. All of them became absent minded for a moment while staring at Red Lady.
"Humph, Yu Hongniang, stop with this nonsense. Obediently hand over the Lightning God spirit tablet and Lightning God eyeball and I will let you leave." The commander of Windstorm Mercenary Group coldly snorted, waking up those useless fellows under his leadership with a start. This commander was obsessed with only douqi and swordsmanship. He completely lacked interest in women, which made him immune to Red Lady's charms.
"Oh, seems like all of you are looking for the Lightning God spirit tablet and Lightning God eyeball. Since that is the case, you got the wrong person. I definitely didn't complete the mission of the Lightning God Forbidden Area." Red Lady said with a smile. However, Long Yi's image surfaced in her heart as soon as she talked about completing the mission. For an unknown reason, she firmly believed that there definitely was a connection between Long Yi and the completion of the Lightning God Forbidden Area mission.
"Hehe, Yu Hongniang, why don't you just speak the truth? Other than you, all the members of the Lightning Mercenary Group and Iron Blooded Mercenary Group are dead. Even Ye Changli didn't survive, so we have a reason to believe that you were the one that completed this mission. If you really didn't complete it, then just drop your weapon and let us search you. If we don't find the things we want, then we will let you leave." The one who spoke was the vice commander of the Windstorm Mercenary Group. His eyes were already bright red as he stared at Red Lady's hot figure.
The charming smile on the face of Red Lady disappeared and she suddenly turned hostile. She knew that she was in a horrible situation right now. Laying down her weapons was undoubtedly casting herself into the net, and she knew better than to listen to the vice commander of the Windstorm Mercenary Group. Just by looking at the perverted gaze of the vice commander, she knew that if she laid down her weapon and allowed them to catch her, she would definitely be facing a bad end. She decided, even if she had to die, she would drag a few of them down with her.
"Capture her. I don't care if she's dead or alive!" The commander waved his hand, ordering his men to commence the attack.
"It would be best to capture her alive. It's a pity for her to die…" The vice commander said with **.
————
Long Yi and Barbarian Bull walked side by side while discussing some problems Barbarian Bull had encountered when practicing the Evil Vanquishing Rod Technique and Golden Bell Canopy. Now, Barbarian Bull was close to achieving big success in both of these techniques. However, he seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and found it extremely hard to make further progress in his cultivation.
Long Yi carefully analyzed the situation and pointed out the deviation that appeared in the midst Barbarian Bull's cultivation and the solution to his problem. Now, if one were to compare Barbarian Bull's strength to a Swords Saint, he wouldn't be weaker in any aspects. The Greenstone Rule in his hand was the weapon of a First-tier God, the Violent God. Moreover, according to the legend, the remnant spirit power of the Violent God was sealed within it. If Barbarian Bull could completely awaken the latent capacity of Greenstone Rule, there was a chance for Barbarian bull to become the next Violent God. At least that was what Long Yi thought.
Behind the two grown men, there were peerless beauties. Usually, the appearance of one was enough to cause a sensation throughout a nation.
"Lingr, your eyes haven't moved away from our husband from the very beginning. Wasn't yesterday's wedding night very sweet?" Seeing as Feng Ling's eyes hadn't left Long Yi since they started moving out, Leng Youyou couldn't help but tease Feng Ling in a low voice.
Feng Ling's beautiful face reddened and rolling her eyes, she said to Leng Youyou, "That's natural. Did you know, our husband was very gentle when doing **… What, are you jealous?"
Leng Youyou laughed and said, "Jealous? Sometimes, yes, of course, I'll be jealous. But I have already thought it over. Our husband is an extraordinary man. Beautiful women will definitely revolve around him, so it's better for all of us to coexist harmoniously without trying to monopolize him."
"If we are able to travel together with our husband and sisters throughout the entire continent, leaving our footprints all over the continent, how wonderful that would be." Feng Ling sighed and muttered.
"There will be such a day, I believe in our husband." Leng Youyou smiled and pulled on Feng Ling's dainty hands.
As the two of them, Feng Ling and Leng Youyou were talking, their voices entered the ears of the other three girls as well. When Si Bi, Wushuang, and Nalan Ruyue heard what Feng Ling said, they started imagining the future with them following Long Yi around with the rest of the girls.
Maybe, just maybe, such a day would come. Just as they were deep in thought, the three god-beasts who were playing around suddenly stopped. Their ears simultaneously stood erect as they heard something going on not too far away from them.
Long Yi frowned. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but this time he unexpectedly felt a familiar energy fluctuation coming from the battle. He immediately flew high in the air and happened to see a red light streaking across far away.
<< fantasy-books Property >>
"Scarlet Blood Bow! Red Lady is in trouble." Long Yi's pupils shrunk as he looked towards the direction of the battle. Signaling for the others to follow him, he flew towards the battlefield at lightning speed.
Chapter 377: Exterminate all, leave none behind (Part two)
Red Lady leaped backwards to avoid the sword qi, before releasing raging flame arrows which managed to kill a dozen or so mercenaries. As a top-tier Magic Archer, both her speed and reactions were top-notch. However, in such a high intensity battle where it was one against many, her speed and reactions alone were not enough for her to completely escape danger. This high intensity battle rapidly consumed her physical strength and she received more than a dozen wounds on her body as the battle progressed. Due to her blood loss from the wounds, her physical strength was dropping even more rapidly.
The commander and vice commander of Windstorm Mercenary Group had yet to make a move. They watched the struggling Red Lady stubbornly resist capture as if they were watching a play. At first, this mercenary commander wanted to fight with Red Lady, but no-one knew what the vice commander said to him. After listening to what the vice commander said, he unexpectedly agreed to capture Red Lady alive
At this moment, Red Lady had already spent most of her physical strength. She had already kept her Scarlet Blood Bow and had switched her weapon to a huge sword. In close quarter combat, the huge sword undoubtedly had greater might. However, this huge sword which was her weapon formerly seemed to have increased in weight since the last time she used it. She used to be able to swing this huge sword easily in her former days, but after being sapped of physical strength after battling the Windstorm Mercenaries for so long, she was struggling to even lift the weapon. The dark blue douqi which she emitted was also much dimmer compared to the start of the battle.
"All of you, withdraw for me. Let me take care of this." The vice commander rushed forward and attacked with his huge sword.
One was energetic and the other was weary, the result was self-evident. However, instead of ending the battle quickly, the vice commander started toying with Red Lady. He used his sword qi to cut open the fiery red leather armor of Red Lady, revealing her spotlessly white skin to everyone present.
"Hahaha, Red Lady, be obedient and allow yourself to be seized with your hand tied. Or perhaps, you want to expose your beautiful body in front of all my brothers." The vice commander rampantly laughed.
Red Lady gnashed her teeth in humiliation, but her expression remained the same. She suddenly stopped moving and said with a smile, "This is just a vile skin-bag, nothing precious. If you guys want to look at it, be my guest."
The vice commander was dumbfounded and suddenly realized that Red Lady had given up resisting capture. He used his sword to stab towards the chest of Red Lady, but stopped short of her skin, cutting off her leather armor, revealing her fiery red brassiere with a white rose embroidered on it. In an instant, the sound of saliva swallowing echoed on the battlefield. None of the mercenaries turned away, and some of them even had nosebleeds.
This vice commander, as if a dire wolf that saw a meat, readily retracted his huge sword while his other hand very impatiently reached towards Red Lady's towering chest.
Seeing that Red Lady was so calm, the commander of Windstorm Mercenary Group was about to shout out a warning. However, he saw that Red Lady had closed her eyes in humiliation which resulted in him keeping his mouth closed.
"Ah!" A scream woke up everyone with a start. They saw the throat of the Windstorm Mercenary Group's vice commander pierced through with a sharp object. He staggered backward with blood gushing out of his throat, and with his eyes rolling back, he collapsed to the ground and stopped breathing.
Red Lady laughed, but her eyes and charming smile was full of killing intent. She caressed the ring she wore in her right hand. It was precisely this ring which enabled her to increase her douqi by 40%. In addition to the 40% increase in douqi, this ring had a hidden attack. It could shoot a piercing nail that could achieve an unusual and unexpected result when the enemy was unprepared. When the vice commander of the Windstorm Mercenary Group relaxed his guard and shortened the distance, she had a hundred percent chance of killing him with a surprise attack.
"Cut this venomous woman into pieces for me!" The commander of Windstorm Mercenary Group roared as he personally charged into the battlefield.
Red Lady moved sideways to dodge as she sighed in her heart. Seems like it was difficult for her to escape death this time around. However, since she had already killed the vice commander of the Windstorm Mercenary Group, perishing together with this commander could also be considered a gain for her.
Red Lady discarded the huge sword and held her Scarlet Blood Bow with both her hands. A warm aura instantly entered her body from the bow which shook her spirit power. Using the bow to withstand the attacks from all around her, she silently chanted the incantation to unleash the power of the Scarlet Blood Bow. However, due to the sheer number of attacks, the number of wounds on her body increased with each passing second.
This Scarlet Blood Bow had a secret. In this entire world, only Red Lady knew that a huge amount of fire energy was sealed within the Scarlet Blood Bow. Once she unsealed it, a huge explosion, not inferior to a forbidden magic spell would occur. Red Lady didn't care if she died when she unleashed the explosion from the bow, she only wanted to take the entire Windstorm Mercenary Group with her.
Sensing that Red Lady was up to something, the commander of the Windstorm Mercenary group realized something was wrong. The moment his sword stabbed into Red Lady's shoulder, he was able to see that the Scarlet Blood Bow was emitting a bloody red light. The Scarlet Blood Bow which was glowing gave the commander an unprecedented sense of crisis as he involuntarily retreated while shouting, "Everyone, retreat."
"Now you want to leave? Too late." Red Lady said as her beautiful face became rosy, but her eyes were fluctuating with deadly killing intent.
"That is correct. None of them are leaving this place." A voice suddenly resounded from all directions, and with a sonic boom, a number of relatively weaker mercenaries bled from seven orifices and died on the spot.
The eyes of Red Lady flashed, revealing a trace of beautiful smile as she muttered, "Is he..." However, she had already completed the incantation and was unable to reverse the explosion of the Scarlet Blood Bow.
The air in the sky distorted and the figure of Long Yi appeared above the mercenaries. He wore a milky white gown and his black hair fluttered in the wind. Moreover, that bad smile on his face made Red Lady's heart tremble slightly. Being able to see him before she died, God had truly blessed her.
Shortly afterwards, Wushuang and others appeared, followed by Barbarian Bull and the three god-beasts.
Feeling the abnormality coming from the Scarlet Blood Bow Red Lady was holding, a thought appeared in Long Yi's mind. With the flash of silverish-purple light, the surrounding space became void of magic elements. As a result, Scarlet Blood Bow which was in the hands of Red Lady reverted back to normal, sealing up the fire energy within it
"This is a domain, he is a Master Archmage! This time, we are truly dead." Seeing the current situation was anything but reassuring, that wretched earth magician thought of using earth magic to sneak away. However, as Long Yi had removed the magic elements in the area, the wretched earth magician wasn't able to use his escaping magic at all. As such, he cried out loudly, hoping a miracle would happen and he would be able to avoid this calamity that was blowing towards him.
Long Yi smiled, yes. He had indeed used a domain. His lightning magic had already reached the pinnacle of a Master Archmage, and combined with his top-notch comprehension, he had already mastered the use of the domain.
"Exterminate all, leave none behind." Long Yi's smile became ice cold as he gave a single command. Hearing the command, Barbarian Bull, as well as the three god-beasts started their one-sided massacre.
Long Yi quickly flew over to Red Lady as he casted several advance light magic onto her. With a soft voice, he reassured her, "Big sister, I arrived late, causing you to suffer grievance."
Red Lady smiled and wanted to tease him, but nothing came out of her mouth. She stood there with her mouth open, while tears threatened to spill out of her eyes.
Seeing that she was about to cry, Long Yi didn't care about other people's opinion anymore. He instantly grabbed hold of Red Lady with his hands and pulled her into his embrace before saying, "Big sister, this younger brother's bosom will always be wide open for you…"
Red Lady nestled in the warm bosom of Long Yi and her body softened. Her younger brother's embrace was truly comfortable at this moment. If she was given a choice, she would choose to never leave Long Yi's embrace for the rest of her life, however, she knew that this bosom didn't belong to her.
Several minutes later, Red Lady lightly pushed Long Yi away and her expression reverted back to normal. With a smile, she said, "Brother, thank you for lending me your chest to lean on. It was certainly comfortable… No wonder you were able to cheat so many girls to become your wife."
<< fantasy-books Property >>
"This isn't cheating, this is a charm." Long Yi coolly flung his black hair back and explained, with a serious expression on his face.
Red Lady simply smiled and started to look around. She was shocked to see Barbarian Bull and the three god-beasts killing off the entire Windstorm Mercenary Group by themselves. Nearly one thousand people were massacred as if they were chickens in a chicken farm by the terrifying combo of Barbarian Bull and the three god-beasts. Especially Barbarian Bull, with his Greenstone Rule dancing and emitting a cruel green halo, people exploded with blood mist and internal organs flying all over the sky. Looking closely at Barbarian Bull, they were able to see that he was actually enjoying this kind of bloody scene. Whenever he managed to make someone explode into blood mist with his Greenstone Rule, he appeared incomparably excited.
At this moment, the commander of the Windstorm Mercenary Group was so scared that his face was deathly pale and his legs kept on trembling. As the commander of an A-ranked mercenary group, he had seen many bloody scenes, but he had never seen such a ruthless massacre. Not to mention that the people who were getting slaughtered were men under his charge.
While the commander was still looking at the massacre conducted by the four of them, he didn't notice that he had become the only one left. Barbarian Bull licked his lips, and carrying Greenstone Rule which was dripping with blood, he walked towards the commander, step by step.
This mercenary commander woke up with a start as if waking up from the nightmare. He frantically ran towards Long Yi and Red Lady and begged in a trembling voice, "Spare me, all this happened because of that damned vice commander. As long as you spare my life, I'll do anything you tell me to do."
By the time the commander finished begging Long Yi and Red Lady, Barbarian Bull who was covered in the blood of the members of the Windstorm Mercenary Group had arrived behind this commander. He looked at Long Yi, clearly waiting for his signal so that he could smash this commander into pulp.
Long Yi gave him a simple shrug of the shoulders and Barbarian Bull instantly understood Long Yi's intentions. After hanging around Long Yi for such a long time, Barbarian Bull knew that Long Yi was telling him to do whatever he liked. With his lips curled upwards, Barbarian Bull lifted Greenstone Rule as he stared straight at the commander.
"Wait a moment." At this time, Red Lady suddenly called out.
Glancing at Long Yi, Barbarian Bull saw that Long Yi was silently nodding his head. As a result, Barbarian Bull had no choice but to retreat to the side.
"Many thanks for your generosity, Red Lady, many thanks." This mercenary commander shed many grateful tears and thanked Red Lady profusely.
"Since when did I say that I'll let you off?" Red Lady walked in front of the commander and said with a smile. To allow this mercenary commander who tried to rob her go free, she must be kicked in the head by a donkey to allow that to happen.
"I asked him to stop so that I can personally dispose of you." Red Lady shrugged her shoulders as she imitated Long Yi and a dark douqi flashed around her hand. As for this mercenary commander, he had no idea how he died until the point he was split into two halves. Her cruelty was not any inferior to Barbarian Bull when treating her enemy. As an SS-ranked mercenary and the commander of an A-ranked mercenary group that was among top 10, Red Lady deeply understood the consequences of not digging up the roots when cutting the weed. She didn't leave any threats that might endanger herself as well as her companions in the future. This is one of the reasons she was still alive now, even though most people had already died.
Within several hours, the corpses of the members of the Windstorm Mercenary Group were discovered by other adventurer groups. Some veteran adventurers analyzed this and determined this was a one-sided slaughter. The killer's methods were so cruel that those that discovered the corpses were terrified. Out of the hundreds of dead bodies on the ground, they weren't able to find even a single intact corpse. Pieces of meats and internal organs were everywhere, and many people couldn't help but vomit after seeing this disgusting scene.
An A-ranked mercenary group with nearly a thousand people was wiped out in a short period of time. This created a big sensation throughout the Blue Waves Continent. Almost all of the adventurer bars had a discussion about this topic. Some people began to estimate the future variables in the Blue Waves Continent, but none of them had any idea about what was going to happen in this chaotic Blue Waves Continent.
Chapter 378: 18 Paths of Test
In the small town nearest to the Lightning God Forbidden Area, the hubbub of the beginning, as if a briefly blooming flower, like the broad-leaved epiphyllum, had faded away. Many merchants that lost a small fortune due to the disappearance of the Lightning God Forbidden Area returned gloomily. While the left, they were complaining about the person who completed the mission of the Lightning God Forbidden Area. It was difficult for them to finally find a place where they were able to earn a fortune, and now, they had to leave. It was already hard for them to survive in these troubled times, and now, their source of fortune was taken away from them.
Long Yi's group of seven arrived at a restaurant. Currently, this place was already deserted with only three to five people sitting at the tables inside the restaurant. Being a shrewd shopkeeper who had seen many people entering his restaurant, he instantly knew that Long Yi's group were no ordinary people the moment they stepped in. He bowed unctuously and welcomed them, as he directly led them to the private room upstairs.
After refreshments and food arrived, Long Yi started filling his stomach as he asked Red Lady, "Big sister, what are you planning to do next? Do you want to travel together with us?" While they were on the way to this town, Red Lady had already told them her experience inside the Lightning God Forbidden Area, with the exception of the incident where Ye Changli tried to rape her.
Red Lady paused and her beautiful eyes rested on Long Yi for a moment before moving away. Shaking her head, Red Lady said with a smile, "No. First, I plan to go to the Mercenary Guild to dismiss the Lightning Mercenary Group. As for the things after that, I'll think about it next time."
Long Yi was startled. When he asked for Red Lady to follow the group to travel together, he had thought that Red Lady would definitely agree. However, to his surprise, she flatly refused him. Nevertheless, he nodded his head and didn't insist on her following them because he clearly knew Red Lady's character. She was a very strong and independent woman, and once she made up her mind, she wouldn't change her decision easily.
"Big sister, come together with us! We can take care of each other on the way!" This time, Nalan Ruyue was the one who opened her mouth. Previously, she always had an ill-feeling towards Long Yi's relationship with Red Lady. However, after interacting with Red Lady, Nalan Ruyue had changed her views and was urging for Red Lady to stay with them.
Red Lady was surprised when she heard what Nalan Ruyue said. She had never expected for Nalan Ruyue to urge her to stay with the group. The evaluation of Nalan Ruyue instantly rose higher in her heart as she replied with a smile, "Little sister, aren't you afraid of me stealing your husband? If I were to follow you guys around, wouldn't there be more chances for me to snatch Long Yi away from all of you?"
Nalan Ruyue rolled her eyes towards Long Yi and answered, "If you want to snatch, then snatch, who cares about him?"
Red Lady giggled and her coquettish appearance made Long Yi absent-minded until Nalan Ruyue pinched the soft flesh on his waist, waking him up with a start. Red Lady was indeed a great beauty and there would be no man who would be able to resist her charms.

"Little sister, may I know who was the one who was jealous all day long when I joined your group? I remember seeing your sour face on the journey back to Blue Moon City!" Red Lady laughed.
"Who is jealous of him? I was only angry because he was looking at you, big sister, with lecherous eyes." Nalan Ruyue's beautiful face became red as she tried to justify herself. Nalan Ruyue was stubborn and didn't want to admit being jealous of Red Lady, as a result, she shifted all the blame to Long Yi.
"Little sister, rest assured, big sister still wants to travel alone. In any case, thank you." Red Lady sipped her tea as she took a quick glance at Long Yi. When she saw him smiling at her, she suddenly felt that among all the people who were present at the moment, only Long Yi was able to understand her thoughts. Even though there were many here who didn't understand the meanings behind her actions, Red Lady felt that as long as Long Yi understood her, it was enough. Having such a confidant was a great blessing in her life.
While the group was talking at the table, the cooks in the restaurant were complaining bitterly about Long Yi's group. Who were these people? Ten roasted whole pigs, over a hundred roasted ducks and piles of other dishes were actually unable to sate their hunger. Could these people actually have a black hole for a stomach? Those seven people had eaten food enough to feed a hundred people, however, it still wasn't enough for them! While they were complaining, they didn't realize that a great majority of the food had went into the stomachs of the three god-beasts.
After several hours of enjoying their meal, they stepped out of the restaurant after paying. After they paid, the shopkeeper looked at them with a gaze which seemed as though he was reluctant to part with them. However, there was a huge smile on his face which was unconcealed and his eyes were shining when he looked at them. Such a generous customer, if he was able to encounter such generous customers every day, how wonderful would that be? The shopkeeper spread out his plump palm as he stared at it with dollar signs in his eyes, there was a genuine Amethyst coin silently lying on it.
When the group reached the exit of the town which wasn't far away from the restaurant, they saw that there were two roads which led to different directions ahead of them.
The seven people stopped at this fork as they all knew that the time to part had arrived.
Red Lady was still wearing her fiery red skintight leather armor with the Scarlet Blood Bow on her shoulder. She appeared valiant and heroic in bearing as she turned and said with a smile, "I am going this way. Since we are headed in different directions, let's part here. I hope we'll see each other again."
Long Yi also smiled, and after shaking off the sadness in his heart, he said, "There is no banquet without ending. Big sister, take care of yourself, we will definitely see each other again." The rest of the group bade their farewells in succession as they prepared to set out in the other direction.
The beautiful pupils of Red Lady wandered around and finally rested on Long Yi's handsome face. A complex expression flashed on her face on her moment, an expression of reluctance appeared briefly as it disappeared in an instant. With her face back to normal, she asked Long Yi with a smile, "Brother, can you hug your big sister?"
Long Yi smiled. This naturally was all he could wish for. He stepped forward and hugged Red Lady tightly.
"Little brother, don't forget about your big sister." Red Lady said using a low voice which could only be heard by the both of them. Without waiting for Long Yi's reply, she pushed him away with a gentle shove and kissed the corner of his lips while standing on her toes. After that, she immediately turned around and left with a smile. In a moment, she disappeared from everyone's line of sight.
Long Yi smiled and shook his head. With a voice that concealed his sadness, he said to everyone, "Well, we should also be leaving."
Nalan Ruyue snorted and Feng Ling looked at him with a grin.
"What's up? Is there any problem?" Long Yi asked in confusion.
"Boss, your…" Barbarian Bull smiled fatuously as he pointed to the corner of Long Yi's mouth.
Long Yi placed his palm in front of his face and congealed a water mirror. In the mirror, he saw a bright red lip print at the corner of his mouth which was left behind by Red Lady.
————
At the north-west edge of the Proud Moon Empire, there was a small town called Nine Deviation. That was there the Moxi Village was located. The Moxi Village was well known throughout the entire Blue Waves Continent as that was where the Moxi clansmen came from.
Like other people, Moxi clansmen also worked in the daytime and rested at night. However, what made them well known was that every single one of these clansmen practiced either magic or douqi. From the elderly who are already over 200 years old, to the ignorant youths, without a single exception, practiced either magic or douqi. Moreover, since the Moxi Clan was formed, they had a produced an astonishing number of Magic Gods and Swords Gods. Every single clansman in the Moxi Clan was proud of their own bloodline the most. As they believed that they were the descendants of God, the Moxi clansmen had pride in whatever they did.
It was unknown what day it was today, but inside Moxi Village, all the clansmen were gathered in the northern suburbs of the village. All of them were gazing far into the distance, seemingly waiting for the arrival of someone.
"Today is the final day, I wonder if the young patriarch can return before it gets dark." A beautiful young girl of the Moxi Clan muttered as her eyes were flashing with affection.
"Yes, I hope we'll be able to see him, otherwise our Qian'er will keep gazing till her eyes are strained." Another young girl giggled and teased. Young Patriarch Li Qing was cool and handsome. Many unmarried maidens of the clan adored him very much, unfortunately, this young patriarch was not interested in any of them. He always had an icy expression on his face and refused to interact with anyone.
"So hateful, big sister is teasing me again. As a matter of fact, I am perfectly content with being able to see young patriarch every day. I never had any extravagant hopes because young patriarch's heart no longer has any place for any woman." The young girl called Qian'er sighed and appeared somewhat dejected when she talked about how the young patriarch would never have any place in his heart for a woman.
"Can it be that young patriarch already has someone he fancies? Who is she?" Another young girl curiously asked.
Qian'er looked around and whispered in her ear. That young girl softly exclaimed and immediately covered her mouth. Then, she lowered her voice, "How do you know?"
"As a matter of fact, this is not a secret. Any observant and conscientious person is able to notice this. She was the reason the young patriarch had become such an ice cold person." Qian'er said as she felt a sense of loss.
Just when the other young girl wanted to dig deeper, the crowd suddenly cheered. Qian'er looked as far as her eyes could see and in the distance, she saw a small black dot. That small black dot was increasing in size rapidly it rapidly rushed over to their side. The speed which he exhibited was extremely fast as he managed to travel across such a large distance within a few seconds. Just a moment ago, they couldn't even see his face clearly, but in the next moment, he was already in front of all of them.
Li Qing slightly bowed in courtesy towards the cheering clansmen. However, his expression was still as cold as ice and he didn't say a single word. Now, his long green hair was casually tied up on the back of his head. His clothes were in tatters and he was covered with bloodstains which had long dried up. It was clear with a glance that he had experienced a cruel battle during the time he was away.
"Father, fortunately, this son didn't fail to accomplish the mission. I have broken through the 17th Path of Test, Hell Magic Forest. Father, please allow this son to enter the 18th Path of Test, Heavenly Prison." Li Qing walked to the front of a tall and sturdy middle-aged man and knelt down asking for permission. Even when facing his own father, his expression didn't change a single bit.
"Qing'er, rest for two days. After two days, I will allow you to enter the final test, Heavenly Prison. I hope that you will not disappoint me." The middle-aged man nodded his head and a trace of happiness flashed in his cold eyes. He was very satisfied with his son. When he was Li Qing's age, he would never have dared to challenge Moxi Clan's 18 paths of ruthless tests. However, his son, Li Qing, was able to pass 17 Paths of Test to reach the hardest path, the 18th. Never in his wildest imagination would he have thought that his son would be an amazing genius which surpassed himself.
Li Qing responded in agreement before getting up and walking towards the village. As for the crowd of clansmen, they moved to the sides, opening up a path for him to walk through. As Li Qing proceeded back to the village, every single villager was looking at Li Qing's aloof and ice-cold expression.
"The back of young patriarch looks very lonely..." Qian'er muttered. Just a moment ago, when Li Qing brushed pass her, the coldness which spilled out of Li Qing's body had nearly frozen her into a block of ice.
The Moxi Clan's clansmen were extremely simple people. Their houses were made using wood and stones without any excessive decoration on them. The only things that appeared luxurious were the weapons that were hung on the wall of every household. There were various kinds of swords and there were magic staffs of different elements. Anyone of the weapons in the Moxi clansmen's household would be able to fetch a sky-high price if sold in the outside world. Not to mention that the Cold Ice Sword Li Qing was using, that sword was priceless.
Li Qing, after changing his clothes, sat cross-legged on his bed and placed his nearly transparent Cold Ice Sword on his lap.
Among the 18 Paths of Test of the Moxi Clan, other than the first six Paths that were considered fairly easy, the Paths after the sixth one would increase in difficulty exponentially. Li Qing had hovered at the gates of hell countless times and had almost seen the king of hell many times. However, he managed to struggle and keep his life. After experiencing all sorts of deadly situations, Li Qing's strength grew greatly. The divine bloodline within his body was completely awakened, and the god-beast silhouette he summoned was a lot clearer now.
"Young master, Li Qing will not disappoint you." Li Qing softly said, and fluctuations appeared in his frozen eyes.
