Chapter 190 (1/2)
Her face was flushed red with ire, her eyes filled with rage. She shot multiple arrows without slowing at the people in the cavern.
“Die, you animals!” Qiao Chuxin seethed. She did not hold back, her magic arrows shooting towards the peoples’ heads and chests. Blood spurted in flowery droplets in the entire cavern, splashing into the pool.
Feng Yixuan finally realized what was happening. He ran out of his room and was shocked see Qiao Chuxin. He called out to her, but as if she did not hear him, Qiao Chuxin shot a vicious arrow at Feng Yixuan.
“Oi! Qiao Chuxin! It’s me, Feng Yixuan!” Feng Yixuan yelled as he dodged the arrow. Suddenly, he became annoyed. Currently, he was a woman, which must have been why Qiao Chuxing had not recognized him.
The Xi brother were wide eyed, mouth agape at the merciless girl who had suddenly appeared.
“Qiao Chuxin?” Leng Lingyun also discovered Qiao Chuxin. Just as he said this, Qiao Chuxing’s magic arrow viciously greeted him.
“What’s going on?” Leng Lingyun frowned at the malicious Qiao Chuxin. He immediately flashed over to Feng Yixuan’s side. He had the same thought as Feng Yixuan, that perhaps Qiao Chuxin wasn’t able to recognize him now that he had transformed into a woman.
The next moment, Leng Lingyun rejected this notion.
“Haha, Leng Lingyun, why are you dressing as a woman?” a familiar voice said. Leng Lingyun looked at the source of the voice to see a vulgar figure hide behind Qiao Chuxin.
“Dong Fenghou?” Leng Lingyun was confused. From what he remembered, Dong Fenghou was normally reticent, his speech always jumbled, but currently, his words were clear.
“Hide first. When Chuxing gets emotional, she cannot differentiate between enemy and foe. Be careful,” Dong Fenghou vulgarly crouched down behind a stone and warned Leng Lingyun.
Cannot differentiate between enemy and foe?!
“Chuxin.” Qi Aoshuang arrived at Qiao Chuxin’s side with a light step of her foot.
“Careful!” A few people said at the same time. Qi Aoshuang’s guard was currently lowered against the dangerous Qiao Chuxin!
“Why?” Qi Aoshuang was already at Qiao Chuxin’s side. White Emperor and Black Feather were crouched on each shoulder, staring at Qiao Chuxin. Everyone’s heart was clenched. Feng Yixuan and Leng Lingyun were about to rush over and save her.
But something shocking happened next. Qiao Chuxin set down her bow and head tilted, looking at Qi Aoshuang curiously. Suddenly, she flung her bow behind her, hitting Dong Fenghou squarely on the head. Dong Fenghou clutched his head in pain.
“Claire…” Qiao Chuxin grabbed Qi Aoshuang into a bear hug and started to weep. She felt extremely wronged, her heart in pain. “Claire, what happened? Exactly what on earth happened? When I heard what happened between you and the Temple of Light, I was so worried. I have been looking for you all this time, waaaaaaaaah…”
Dong Fenghou’s mouth gaped. Stupefied, he turned to Feng Yixuan and Leng Lingyun, then said embarrassedly, “Don’t look at me, I don’t know either. No one could stop Qiao Chuxin whenever she was berserk.” It seems Dong Fenghou had learned this through bitter experience.
“Chuxin…” Qi Aoshuang gently patted Qiao Chuxin’s back. “Don’t cry. Aren’t I just fine?”
“What do you mean just fine? You even turned into a man, waaaaaaaah….” Qiao Chuxing started to cry even more sorrowfully.
Everyone had a strange expression and looked at each other in dismay. Qi Aoshuang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Did you forget about the gender changing potion? We all drank some in order to avoid the assassin the Temple sent.”
“Huh?” Only then did Qiao Chuxin realize, but she was still a little confused.
Suddenly, the entire cavern started to shake.
“Business first, talk later.” Dong Fenghou stood up impatiently. “I summoned a few sea beasts. They are currently breaking the underwater metal net. This pool is connected to the ocean. Let’s save the mermaids first.”
“Right. We came here to save the mermaids. Who knew that we would bump into you? It’s a miracle.” Qiao Chuxing was beyond pleased, radiating happiness.
“Lead the merfolk out through the underwater current. We’ll destroy this place while we’re at it,” Dong Fenghou said hurriedly as he handed Qiao Chuxin back her bow.
Feng Yixuan and Leng Lingyun did not waste any words, lifting up the entire metal net out of the water. Xi Shaosi and Xi Shaoqi rescued mermaids out from the rooms and ran back and forth from the pool. The mermaids in the pool attended to the rescued mermaids.
The cavern started to shake more seriously. Debris started to smash down, arousing painful cries. The people Qiao Chuxin had pinned to stones could not move. Many could only watch on blankly as huge stones smashed down onto their bodies.
All the mermaids in the stone rooms were eventually rescued and returned back to the pool. Up until now, even with the unexpected disturbance, the mermaids had been calm, because they understood that these people were here to save them.
“Let’s go.” With a flick of Feng Yixuan’s finger, large barrier surrounded everyone. As he gently raised his hand, the barrier brought everyone into the water. The water was turbid. All the mermaids surrounded them, waiting expectantly. Suddenly, there was a low, deep call. The water started to flow.
“Over there.” Dong Fenghou pointed. “Straight that way.”
Feng Yixuan controlled the barrier to move them forward. The mermaids followed closely. The water started to flow even more quickly, the low voice coming closer.
Straight ahead, they saw a sea beast with a strange appearance that was striking an iron door.
Bam…
With a loud explosion, the iron door was finally broken. Feng Yixuan moved them forward as the mermaids emotionally swam at flying speeds. Dong Fenghou extended his right hand, touched the tips of his middle and pinky finger together, then started to chant in a low voice.
The next moment, a giant sea beast squeezed past them.
Howl…
