Chapter 41 Mysterious Woman
Chapter 41 Mysterious Woman
Just as Lin Que closed his eyes and awaited death, a shout pulled him back to reality.
Qi Lianyue rushed to Lin Que, crying, trying to stop the finger.
"Lian Yue! You've gone mad!"
"Run! Don't come any closer!!!"
Lin Que shouted loudly at Qi Lianyue in front of him.
Qi Lianyue turned her head and said firmly to Lin Que, "No! Lianyue never wants to lose her brother again!"
"Brother, you don't know what it's like when you're not here."
“Lian Yue is very sad every day.”
"Please let Lian Yue be willful this once."
Lin Que's lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a word.
It turns out that he himself had overlooked Qi Lianyue's feelings, as well as the feelings of many other people.
It turns out that everyone's feelings are unique, and no one can stop them. You think about protecting everyone and sacrificing yourself, but you don't consider the feelings of others.
As Li Yao had predicted, I was indeed right.
He's an idiot...
"Humph!"
"Such a sentimental scene, but unfortunately it was all for naught!"
"Since you also want to die, I will grant your wish!"
The illusory finger continued its momentum, reaching towards Lin Que and Qi Lian Yue.
next moment!
A powerful aura erupted from Qi Lianyue, a light shone on her chest, and she stared intently at the finger, her aura gathering around her.
I wanted to stop that finger.
"what?"
"It's actually the awakening of the Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart!"
"You cannot be allowed to live here!!!"
"Death!"
At this critical moment, Qi Lianyue's keen intellect awakened fully, unleashing a terrifying aura as she tried to stop it all.
But it was no use; the difference in their levels was too great.
"what!"
"This woman actually possesses a brilliant and insightful mind?!"
"What a lucky day!"
"It seems there's no need to go to the Blazing Sun Dynasty!"
"How can this blazing sun body compare to the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart..."
The person in the sky murmured something, and then his figure disappeared into the air.
"boom!"
Just as the finger was about to pinch Lin Que and Qi Lian Yue, a figure suddenly appeared, blocking their way. With a casual wave of his hand, a loud explosion was heard.
"who?!"
"How dare you stop me from doing something good!"
The illusory image of the nascent soul shouted at the person.
"You can't touch these two today."
A melodious sound, like the strains of a zither, rang out, as beautiful as heavenly music, extremely pleasing to the ear.
As the dust settled after the explosion, a woman dressed in fine clothes stood before Lin Que and Qi Lian Yue.
He turned around and gave Qi Lianyue a smile.
That smile, so captivating, made everyone present fall in love with her.
This woman has skin as smooth as jade, a face that could launch a thousand ships, bright eyes and white teeth, like a fairy in a painting. Every smile and frown of hers can make people forget the mundane world.
"elder sister!"
"You're so beautiful!"
Qi Lianyue stared blankly at the woman who appeared in front of her and her brother. She sensed that this older sister had no ill intentions towards her; on the contrary, she liked the aura she exuded.
"Little girl, you have such a sweet tongue!"
The woman laughed again after being praised by Qi Lianyue, which once again attracted a group of stunned gazes around her.
"Girl! Are you sure you want to interfere in my affairs?!"
The illusory Nascent Soul figure once again questioned the woman sharply!
The woman turned around, looking at the illusory figure without any fear, and said softly, "Didn't you understand just now?"
"You can't touch these two."
"Disperse automatically."
Enraged by these words, the illusory Nascent Soul cultivator exclaimed, "Fine! Fine! Fine!"
"Let's see what you're capable of, that you can stop this old man!"
After saying that, the nascent soul made another move. He formed hand seals, and the surrounding spiritual energy was mobilized to form a huge golden sword.
He swung the sword at the woman.
To everyone's surprise, the woman didn't even lift her eyelids. With a gentle flick of her sleeve, the giant sword that was slashing towards her vanished with a deafening roar.
"what?!"
"Who are you?!"
"Do you really intend to oppose my Wang family?!"
The nascent soul was shocked by the woman's move and blurted out that he wanted to bring up the Wang family to make her back down.
The woman remained unmoved and simply said slowly, "Who I am is none of your business!"
"Don't even mention your mere Wang family, even the Four Great Holy Lands..."
"I am not afraid!"
Upon hearing the woman's words, not only the nascent soul figure, but also Lin Que and the others who knew about the four holy lands were stunned.
What kind of background does someone have to dare to say such things, not even putting the Four Holy Lands in their eyes?
"I go!"
"Is it that fierce?"
Lin Que muttered to himself.
Coming to his senses, the illusory Nascent Soul still said viciously, "Since you want to protect these two now, I don't believe you can protect them until you die."
“Especially that man, he killed someone from my Wang family.”
"We need an explanation!"
The change in address from "girl" to "fellow Daoist" shows the magnitude of the change in the illusory figure's attitude.
The woman said nonchalantly, "That's your problem. I just want the girl to be alright."
"After that, you can do whatever you want with this man."
"But, these two today."
"You can't touch anyone."
Upon hearing this, Lin Que breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt something was amiss. It meant that this woman was only protecting Lian Yue, and what happened to him afterward was none of her business.
Ok.
After thinking about it, that's not bad either, considering we're not related by blood.
At least Lian Yue is safe.
This is reassuring.
Upon hearing this, the illusory Nascent Soul looked at the woman and repeatedly said, "Good! Good! Good!"
Finally, he stared at Lin Que with a sinister look and said, "Kid! You better watch out in the future, or I'll catch you!"
“Slightly, slightly, slightly~~~”
Lin Que peeked out from behind the woman and made a face at the illusory Nascent Soul.
The woman watched this scene, speechless.
I thought to myself, this guy is incredibly bold. I wonder what he would think if I suddenly decided to give up on him.
Thinking about this makes me inexplicably excited. Should I give it a try?
Well, I just said I would protect them both, so I can't go back on my word.
The woman thought about it for a moment and then gave up.
Lin Que suddenly felt that the woman's gaze was a bit strange. He scratched his head, but couldn't figure out what was wrong.
As the illusory Nascent Soul slowly dissipated, it looked at Lin Que's arrogant appearance and shouted angrily, "When I catch you, I will make you wish you were dead!!!"
"Noisy!"
The woman waved her sleeve again, and the illusory image of the nascent soul became like a mirror.
Shattered!
At this moment, somewhere on the mainland, in a secret room of a certain family, an old man spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, with a fierce look in his eyes, he said, "I'll make that brat wish he were dead!"
"And who exactly is that woman?!"
……
"hiss!"
"So strong!"
Everyone, including Lin Que, gasped when they saw the illusory image shatter.
The woman turned around, smiled at the two of them, and said, "Alright, the threat to you is resolved."
"Now it's our turn."
Upon hearing this, Lin Que became wary.
Holding Qi Lianyue's hand, he said, "I wonder what you're talking about, fairy?"
"We don't seem to know each other, do we?"
The woman covered her face and chuckled, saying, "You actually called me a fairy, you little rascal, you're really amusing."
"So happy!"
Qi Lianyue said to Lin Que, "Brother, it's alright. I can sense that this fairy sister has no ill intentions towards us."
The woman exclaimed in surprise, "Truly a brilliant mind, it's astonishing!"
Lin Que wasn't surprised to hear that the woman could recognize Lian Yue's Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart. After all, her strength was undeniable; someone who could easily deal with a Nascent Soul Realm phantom was no ordinary person.
Then, the woman continued, "Little girl, would you like to come with me?"
"I intend to take you as my apprentice on behalf of my master."
Upon hearing this, Lin Que immediately said, "No way! She's my sister. We don't even know who you are, so why should my sister go with you?"
The woman turned her head and said coldly to Lin Que, "Kid, I'm only speaking to you politely now, but that doesn't mean I don't have a temper. If I want to forcibly take your sister away..."
"What can you do?"
"Besides, I'm taking your sister away, not you. The decision is in your sister's hands."
"You have no right to interfere."
Upon hearing this, Lin Que looked down at Qi Lian Yue and asked somewhat nervously, "Lian Yue, what do you think?"
After thinking for a moment, Qi Lianyue looked up at Lin Que and said, "Brother, I've made up my mind!"
"I'd better go with my sister!"
"But......"
Lin Que opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Qi Lian Yue.
“Brother, Lian Yue no longer wants to hide behind everyone.”
"Lian Yue also wants to become strong so she can protect her brother."
"Instead of letting my brother protect Lian Yue all the time."
"In that case, even if Lian Yue survives, she won't be happy."
"Besides, this lady saved our lives, and we still owe her a debt of gratitude."
"Besides, I'm sure this lady isn't a bad person, so don't worry, brother!"
Upon hearing this, the woman's previously cold expression instantly turned into a beaming smile as she said to Lin Que, "Look, your sister herself has agreed."
"Are you going to stop your sister from having her way?"
Lin Que knew that when Qi Lian Yue said those words, it meant that nothing could be changed. He ignored the woman's words and said to Qi Lian Yue, "Alright, since it's Lian Yue's own idea."
"I support you, brother!"
He then turned to the woman and said, "Lian Yue has no problem going with you, but!"
"If I find out that Lian Yue is not doing well!"
"I'll make you regret this!"
