Shijei and Senlin looked at him astonished. "You even know that…?" Shijei asked in awe. "But, Xianwu replied back from the transmission… how did he know?" he thought. Xianwu twirled around creating her balance "I am really at a disadvantage. The resentments are just ghosts who harm out of nowhere. They cannot be caught, cannot be held and neither can they be tied. The way I'm right now… I don't even have spiritual power and even if I do it's all in my wings. However, over them I have no control. I can't even feel them at the slightest. Fa ling ca only cut down living beings and fogs around and nothing else. Will the seven sway's of illusion be able to cut them down?!" Xianwu pondered.
"Well we can only try!" Xianwu threw Fa ling as he slashed the avalanche with her first move but the avalanche took its shape again. The wind gathered around her as she twirled even faster. "Xianwu! Stop you're going to hurt yourself!!" shouted Shijei. "You don't have any spiritual power, your seven sways won't even scratch it!" Xianwu however twirled around faster and faster as Fa ling slashed through it twice, thrice and the fourth time but it kept regaining its shape.
Senlin noticing a difference blurted "Hey! It's speed! Its speed is dropping!" Shijei who noticed it too immediately drew his sword. "The time we attacked it separately, it was no use. But, if we both attack it together with twice the force using our spiritual power. It might create an attack powerful enough to dispel it." Shijei suggested in panic. Senlin had no choice but to accept it. The two of them instantly gathered their spiritual power in their weapons.
Xianwu on the other hand. Twirled around ferociously. Trees around her swayed creating a hurricane. Fa ling with the movement of her hand attacked the fifth and sixth time. Slow but strong, the hurricane still approached wildly. Screams of all kinds echoed around. It was a complete chaos. "If Heavenly realm knows about it… we'll be as good as dead!" Shijei stated. Senlin looked at him in anger "could you please just shut up!! We are already at deaths door. Isn't it enough!"
Xianwu looking at the avalanche pondered "This is the last sway… if what Senlin and Shijei suggested works out it will be great or else I might use Fa ling as a shield to narrow the impact of me hitting it. More or less it all depends on them!" Senlin spoke up "The moment Xianwu hits her last swing, we'll attack the avalanche the moment it slows down!!" Shijei nodded.
Xiao yin looked at the Xianwu. His expression grave. "It won't work…" he whispered. His voice was light but cold. Cold enough to make the other two shudder as they stared. "What does that mean?!" Senlin thought shocked. "This little kid? How can he be so sure?!" Shijei thought.
Xianwu with her last swift step rotated Fa ling around her. Xiao yin gazed at her and without a speck of hesitation stepped outside the bush. Shijei perplexed called out "Hey! What are you doing? Didn't you say you aren't a burden? Why are you trying to become one?!" Xiao yin however walked stoically as if nothing passed by his ears. He walked directly towards Xianwu. Senlin smirked evilly stretching her arrow "It's great! If that impudent brat becomes Xianwu's shield. Then we can get rid of two nuisances with a single stone!"
Shijei looked at her shocked. "Are you out your mind?!" he questioned in panic. "Don't hurt him at any cost!" Xiao yin walked forward, his steps as faint as falling snow. His expression hidden under his wavy black hairs. Xianwu pointed Fa ling towards the avalanche. His speed as swift as lighting slashed through it the last time. Xianwu tumbled at the ground. Without spiritual power, every single attack she used was painful enough to crumble her bones. Xianwu sat gasping for breath.
Suddenly she glanced at Xiao yin who approached her. Under the raging wind she couldn't make out his expression "Xiao yin?!" she called anxiously. "Why are you coming here?! I already told you stay…" soon her sentence was interrupted as Xiao yin grabbed her arm and pulled her into an embrace. Xianwu who was unable to utter a single word stood in his arms dazed. Xiao yin with his back faced towards the avalanche pulled Xianwu closer.
However, Xianwu had already realized what he was about to pull off. "Stop Xiao yin! It's dangerous!" she scolded. Xiao yin grabbing her head tightly stayed there like a stone. "Fa ling, create a barrier. Right now!!" she ordered worriedly. Looking at the two of them Senlin instructed "Now!"
The arrows in her bow converted to a thousand of heavenly one's and Shijei's slash hit aggressively creating a huge blow. "Did we succeed?" Shijei asked curiously. Xiao yin tilted his head around to look at the avalanche. His expression grave and pupils red in agony. The dust around had already died down as the avalanche stood one inch far from his robes.
Senlin and Shijei stared at him with their expressions startled. The avalanche with his glare dissipated into thin air and hid itself behind the trees and further into the forest. Xianwu who was already in a shock stared in daze. After a long silence Xiao yin spoke "Sister… your lackeys did it." Xianwu nodded unable to speak a single word. After the circumstances had settled down. The forest had already ended with all that running around. The four of them in complete silence made their way out.
