BOOM!
Waves upon waves of spiritual energy were released. It blasted Yīnchén Ài and Heng Xīnyán miles away from their previous position. Defenseless and unaware of such violent aftermath of their powers, the main culprits were cast far away from their original spot.
The surroundings of their battlefield were destroyed. Bàolì Hua barely managed to escape with Xu Chang. However, the two were still caught in the unexpected explosion.
The Sky Pavilion suffered a heavy hit and spider web-like cracks formed on the wooden structure. Many Guests hurried out of the wooden building but some were, unfortunately, too late!
The Sky Pavilion suffered a terrible hit and it came crashing down onto the people within. The spiritual energy of Heng Xīnyán and Yīnchén Ài was still lingering in the air.
The aftermath of their spiritual energy gave birth to a strong wind that kicked up. The wind was strong and the dark clouds above in the sky were filled with dark energy, affected by Heng Xīnyán's resentment.
Many looked up at the clouds in fear. Lightning crackled, running through the dark clouds and thunder rolled, sounding like an awakened dragon that just came out of slumber. The roar of the thunder was filled with spiritual energy that had many of the guests kneeing in fright and pain.
The wave of sounds hurt their ears and some of the weaker ones coughed up blood from their Qi rolling backwards. Giving them a heavy backlash. The roar quieted down after a while and many of the weak cultivators fainted. The remainder of those who stayed awake were able the move yet the dark skies were lit up with the silver lightning continuously.
Taking their eyes off of the gloomy clouds, the guests looked at the fallen Sky Pavilion which was now in ruins. A cloud of dust formed over the building like a large grey mushroom head. Many of the guests were worried about the people left inside. However, before they could go and search in the ruins for survivors.
A lightning strike the building's ruins. The brilliant bright light, had everyone closing their eyes and with a loud crackle, it hit the building ruins. The lightning disappeared and Bàolì Hua who was thrown away by the wave of spiritual energy down the hill. Sat up with a cough, her blank eyes watched the wooden building that was in ruins being burnt by a bright red flame that was born from the silver lightning.
The red flame was like a reborn phoenix that bathed in its newly founded glory. It danced happily in the ruins. The flames roared and the lightning in the sky flashed as if responding to the roaring flames.
Bàolì Hua was dumbfounded upon seeing this scene. Her pink lips were opened in shock and her face was pale. She was confused at this strange development, she noticed that the lightning in the sky was changing from silver to light blue. The thunder sounded again and the lightning lighted up the sky with brilliance.
Bàolì Hua looked around. She struggled to stand. The surroundings of Sky Pavilion were destroyed as it seems like the previous green grass was unable to grow back given that the entire was affected by dark spiritual energy caused by Heng Xīnyán.
Thinking that the grand show was over. The cultivators were caught off guard. Even, Bàolì Hua was stunned. The red flames which danced on the Sky Pavilion's ruins. Deepened in colour!
Turning a startling colour of blood. her eyes widened in horror as the red flame became larger engulfing the entire Sky Pavilion with its bright brilliance. It seemed like the flame had a mind of its own.
Its gentle movements slowly became violent. It crackled loudly, burning everything in its wake. Screams of the cultivators who were trapped in the ruins were burned into the violent flame. Their soul force was being sucked out by the flame.
Bàolì Hua stepped back in horror. Her back pressed into a cold hard chest. She froze, turning around slowly. Her mind was blank, the familiar face in front of her made her look at him thoughtfully.
"You're not dead?" Were the words she uttered and the male grinned coldly, his eyes fierce and his silver spiritual energy sent her body flying miles away.
"Sadly… I'm not!" Ding Zixin smirked.
Bàolì Hua stood. Her eyes watched the male in silver. Unlike before where he stood proudly, his back was bent and his eyes were dimmed. Yet, upon seeing Bàolì Hua they brightened with hatred that danced like fire in his eyes.
Bàolì Hua hummed, her cold eyes mocking, "I should have let Heng Xīnyán kill you!" She launched her body in his direction. Her green spiritual energy was ready to attack him. On defence, Ding Zixin met her in the air and like a dance their body turned a blur of silver and green. They slowly drifted away from Sky Pavilion. Their differing clothing colours matched their spiritual energy.
Unlike Heng Xīnyán who fought like she had nothing to lose by attacking all the time. Bàolì Hua was more calm and more composed. All she did while fighting Ding Zixin was block his wild spiritual energy attacks.
Her light lime-green spiritual energy blocked all of his attacks. The male in front of Bàolì Hua was different from the one she had met before. His attacks were wild and strong. He fought with no strategy and Bàolì Hua could easily suppress him but his cultivation level made it a problem.
However, Bàolì Hua conserved her energy by blocking all of Ding Zixin's attacks. Her eyes narrowed on the male, and changing her position, she started to attack.
With her fist covered in spiritual energy, she drove it into Ding Zixin's stomach. Without giving him a chance to counterattack, she twirled her body and sent a kick to his chest. The male went flying from the force, blood dripped from his lips and Bàolì Hua flew to him. Ding Zixin stood and launched himself into the air. Their spiritual energy clashed heavily and Bàolì Hua found loopholes in his fighting. He raised his arm to send a forceful punch to her stomach.
Bàolì Hua twisted her body to the side and she delivered a punch to his side. His soul was shaken and Ding Zixin fell from the sky. His eyes glared at Bàolì Hua. He spat out a mouthful of blood, "My Sect will find you!"
Bàolì Hua grinned coldly. Her body floated above his. Lowering her body, she didn't speak as she allowed her green spiritual energy to cover the male body. Ding Zixin screamed in pain and Bàolì Hua's brows merely lifted. His dark eyes watched her with bitter hatred.
Bàolì Hua's spiritual energy entered his Dantian in the form of a snake that appeared to be sleeping. She left it there before turning away ready to find her way back to Sky Pavilion.
