Chapter 57 : Another Type of Cultivation 6 (2/2)
Feng Ci lifted his hand slightly and countless fist-sized fireballs appeared in front of him. They just floated there and even though one couldn’t feel any heat radiating off them, they still caused one to fear them on an instinctual level.
The Snakekin had already slipped away, sensing that something was awry. He was planning on coming back for revenge after it had finished with its tribulation. Of course, that was if he managed to actually survive!
Now, there was only Ye Qingqiu and her male lead who she had been towing along, Long Jue.
“Shang Shu, you want to kill a fellow sect member?” Ye Qingqiu hurriedly spoke upon sensing something wrong with these flames.
“Eh? I’m not the one making a move, why would I be the one killing a fellow sect member? Hot bro, don’t listen to her nonsense, she’s stalling for time.”
After all, every female lead had this special skill where they would be able to make a comeback as long as you gave them the opportunity to stall for time.
“…I am a direct disciple of the Misty Sect, I hope you {used a more respectful version} have thought this through clearly.” Ye Qingqiu silently began to withdraw. ‘This Shang Shu really dares to…’
Feng Ci didn’t even bat an eyelid as the fireballs in front of him shot towards Ye Qingqiu. The dense barrage of fireballs did not allow Ye Qingqiu any space to dodge.
“Aaah!” Ye Qingqiu’s arm got hit and she let out a miserable cry. ‘What the hell are these flames?! They’re so strong!’
The surrounding fireballs immediately gathered towards Ye Qingqiu, as if they wanted to completely envelop her. However, the flames didn’t manage to engulf her before a fierce wind blew from Ye Qingqiu’s direction, causing the flames to flicker and sway.
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Feng Ci’s eyes. A flame dragon emerged from his sleeve and charged towards Ye Qingqiu. She subconsciously used her male lead to shield herself.
“Feng Ci, this is the Mortal World. Do you want to attract the World Guardians here?” A weak voice suddenly spoke. It was the male lead, Long Jue.
He had been seized by Ye Qingqiu, and he looked pathetic, as if you could poke him to death with a finger. A pity he was still alive and well. He gave a cryptic gaze to Ye Qingqiu. She avoided his gaze, though she didn’t release him.
Feng Ci flipped his hand and the flame dragon stopped an inch in front of Ye Qingqiu before turning around and flying back. The dragon was reabsorbed into his flames surrounding him.
Ye Qingqiu heaved, her face pale. ‘Nearly… I nearly died then. Shang Shu… I definitely won’t let you off!’
Shi Sheng “…” ‘I knew the female lead wouldn’t die so easily.’
“Let’s take her back to the Celestial World to kill her then.”
Shi Sheng “…” ‘Villain-sama, you’re awesome for spending so much effort just to kill someone!’
Just as Shi Sheng was sighing, a white light suddenly shot forth from beneath Long Jue’s feet. That light immediately enveloped Long Jue and Ye Qingqiu, leaving no trace of them.
‘Well I’ll be… As expected of the Young Master of a Dragon Clan. He even has such a rare teleportation scroll.’
“Do we chase?” Feng Ci earnestly looked at Shi Sheng.
“No need, there’s no point.” Shi Sheng shook her head. ‘Ye Qingqiu hasn’t even ascended yet, killing her now would be too nice. Might as well… let her live to be enemies with her male lead.’
“You’re called Feng Ci? I’m called Shang Shu. Are you from the Celestial World?” Shi Sheng blinked and with a curious face, asked a question she already knew the answer to long ago.
“En. You can call me… Ah Ci. You’re coming back to the Celestial World with me.”
He had a bit of hesitation at first, but the last sentence was spoken with an unyielding tone; as if he would drag her with him even if she didn’t agree.
