Chapter 21 (2/2)
Lianquansun, in a flash, she is standing in front of the fleet
When the person in the carriage lifts the heavy and luxurious curtain, he sees Lianquan standing in front of the horse The ot down froaze away dis out tords from between his teeth dismissively: “Get lost”
Lianquan does notlike she did not see thetowards her from behind
The e squints, and in the next second, the warrior behind Lianquan lugs his crafted bat at her, ai at Lian Quan’s neck with the force and violence of a wild beast
The sound of bones shattering The grueso into fresh
Lianquan’s body flies out with a bang, dropping a dozenon the pavement, tossed far out
The town folks keep their heads low and do not speak They are all quietly judging the motionless Lianquan in the middle of the road from the corners of their eyes
The hts slowly; on his fancy robes are silver trilare from the sun
He moves towards Lianquan unhurriedly, lifts his feet, and uses the soles of his shoes to flip her face over to face him He tells Lianquan: “Didn’t anyone ever tell you that, we are the top soul bending family in Rennes?”
“Top……well then……that certainly helped a lot……” Lianquan gets up slowly, due to the impact from before, her neck, backbone and joins have all been broken She straights up, andthe broken pieces of her body, her joints squir sound, the scene is undeniably strange
A silver of confusion appears in the man’s eyes, “What did you say?”
“I said,” Lianquan twists her neck, as if a large wedge is being pushed into a piece of wood, “You have soul powers, that really helped a lot, because I once swore that I will never will someone who does not have that”
“What sort of joke is this!” Theripples in his robes
Lianquan doesn’t even give him the opportunity to attack, she raises her palh into the air as if being thrown by a pair of large, invisible hands At the sahtly at a puddle of water some distance away, as a result, numerous round water droplets raise froers towards the man in the sky—
The water droplets the size of pearls shoot towards thespeed, a series of dull thuds sound, they are the sound of the balls of water going through the man’s body Those nu his body with insane speed, repeatedly going through his body like a group of insane insects, surrounding hi in numerous holes on his body Redthe white stonewalls of the surroundings with a layer of red dust
With a loud crash, his body hits the ground, those water droplets coated with his blood has became countless red beads, as if individual insects that had their fill of blood, hovering ominously a few meters over his body, Lianquan reht in her eyes, you can tell that she seehtly and the red beads of blood break apart, turning into raindrops, splattering on his body
His body is now contains countless gaps, evenout
Lianquanthe veil away from her face, thecreature
The sea breeze blows at Lianquan’s hair, under the sunlight, the scar at the location on her neck beneath her ear is clear as day
“The fifth…… ‘Seal of the Lord’……” The les out a feords from his blood-filled mouth, “You are……”
Re man before her, she tells him seriously: “Yes, I am Guishan Lianquan, the fifth ‘Disciple’
[West of Aslan Empire - Forest outside Town of Fauser]
When he opens his eyes, the sky is already very bright The clouds look like pure white feathers of silk, hugging the blue sky tightly The sunlight shi+nes through the gaps between the leaves, forht around his body The wind carries the fresh fragrance of the leaves, warmed up under the sun The bitter winter seems to have retreated to the depths of the forest far away from here, at thisafter the snow melted
Everything seeht never happened
Qi Ling sits up abruptly when his eyes start to hurt from the sunshi+ne; subconsciously he moves his hand towards his chest and presses down The weird thing is that, his chest that had been pierced through by the icicles froht does not hurt at all He folds his sleeves and trousers and noted that he does not have any scars
Then Shen Yin……
Turning his head suddenly, he looks at the steep walls of the mountain The hole fro crystals have all disappeared Qi Ling crawls up and es in his body, not only does he not feel like someone who barely scraped death, he feels as if he has an infinite ay When he reached the cave, he discovers it to be bare
Yet yesterday he had clearly seen Shen Yin being struck by a few flashes of lightning and the impact of her fall resulted in this hole And it had been filled with razor-sharp icicles Now there is only an e touches the rocks at the mouth of the cave and notices that the scratches are all recent, this proves that what happened yesterday wasn’t an illusion, this hole is really so that has only existed recently
After he cliround with disappoint near hi
Yin Chen is seated on the exposed root of an ancient tree, the blackened tree root jutting out fro over the air for soain, as if erecting a bridge of which the circumference is as thick as a person’s embrace
The speckles of light fall onto his face His features, under the bright sunshi+ne, looks as if they are as intricate as carvings on an ice statue, but at the sa passiveness The robe on his body floats around in an unhurried and intriguinghi He puts away the sheep-skin bound book and lifts his head to glance at Qi Ling before saying coldly: “Let’s go”
“Go? Go where?” Qi Ling puts his head behind his head, co, “Sir, I just woke up, I haven’t even washed my face yet”
Yin Chen: “Just followthat can be explained with just a feords”
“Then did you save ht I was cut into a few pieces by a few knives……” Qi Ling scratches his head, as if he hie of words to describe what had happened is weird, “Are you a doctor?”
“……I am not a doctor,” Yin Chen lowers his head and rubs his brows, he looks slightly angry, “When I arrived, you were there asleep” Yin Chen takes in a deep breath and reverts back to his cold and expressionless state
“Good sir, I was really about to die before……” Qi Ling thinks, unsure of how to explain since not everyone believes the existence of soul beasts or soul es the topic, “When you arrived did you see the hole, right there, was there a girl? About two or three years older than I am, she looks very pretty, did you see her?”
Yin Chen looks at the youth before hi calmness like still water, “I didn’t”
Yin Chen stands up and walks towards Qi Ling, “Come with me, to Gelanerte”
“Ge……Gelanerte?” Qi Ling is shocked; “You want to bring me to Gelanerte? Why? I still have to hurry back to the inn, I don’t kno things are over there, if I don’t go back, the boss lady is going to scold rew up here, in my life I’ve never……”
Before Qi Ling finishes speaking, he suddenly feels as if hisshards of nice, he spits a lot of theue numb
“So noisy” Yin Chen narrows his eyes and rubs his ears, appearing to be satisfied, as if enjoying the current state of peace He turns back, his clear irises rese: “From the day you becoer has any ”
“What……is……’disciple’? Qi Ling squeezes out, his tongue so nu to him
Yin Chen’s eyes narrow, he presses towards QI Ling, the tree trunks surrounding them suddenly covered with a later of frost, cold air swirl around the , staring into his eyes, “What are you?”
“I……” QI Ling looks at the frosty Yin Chen, the bone-piercing fear fro him once more
“Haven’t you ever heard of a disciple?”
“No I haven’t……”
“Then do can you control soul powers?”
“No……”
Yin Chen stares at the intily handsome but still naive youth before hiuilt It is obvious that he is speaking the truth
Yin Chen relaxes, the frost on the tree trunks beside hihs, unsure of what the Silver Priests were thinking, as if they just played a prank on hi him back to Gelanerte and ask the Silver Priests himself
“Will you……are you going to kill ’s body is hidden behind a tree trunk, his hands clutching the tree trunk, he asks nervously
A gentle and refreshi+ng feeling like a gush of spring waterthat is distant but fa away from his brows, it makes hiht white teeth, using an appealing and gentle voice, he speaks to Qi Ling softly: “Don’t worry, I won’t I won’t kill you, I will protect you”
[West of Aslan Empire - Port City of Rennes]
Lianquan finds an inn to stay, she sit son the bed with her eyes closed, appearing to be deep in thought
On the bedside table sits the oil la expressionless even in the dark
The perfectly round h over the sea, if you look out froht on the surface of the ocean
An invisible rippleacross the air
As if sensing so, Lianquan opens her eyes in the dark, a layer of eerie green s soundlessly from her body, as if scattered by the wind, they spread and disappear into the darkness outside the ithin seconds
In the dead silence of the dark, time ticks by slowly
“Looks like this time round……” Lianquan mutters, “There comes a terrible monster……”
The large road that leads to the city gate of Rennes is illuht, the numerous statues of celestial beasts carved out of stone on the sides of the road have whiteflowers, these decorate the fountains along the way, all these are symbols of the wealth of Rennes
At this veryin the late night, the sound co towards Rennes
