Chapter 704 Blood Tear Awakening
Senior, what are you doing…
Cao Hong’s face turned ashen. He knew absolutely that the family members of those decoys could not be allowed to return to the country, otherwise, if this matter spread, it would bring a devastating blow to the reputation of the Immortal Alliance.
“I want these people.”
Qi Huang casually replied, and she had already disappeared from her original spot.
Cao Hong’s spiritual sense could not lock onto Qi Huang at all, and he couldn’t even chase her. He could only tremble with anger, knowing that he was defeated this time.
“Alliance Leader Cao, what did she take those people away for?”
Zheng Chi walked up and asked curiously.
“If you ask me, who should I ask?”
Cao Hong questioned Zheng Chi with an unhappy face.
“Then what should we do now?”
Zheng Chi cautiously sought his opinion.
Cao Hong took a deep breath and then said calmly, “Fortunately, all those decoys are still here. You continue to take them to Tencel Valley.”
“Yes, and you?”
Zheng Chi asked.
“Of course, I have to report this matter to the Alliance Leader. Those rebels must not be allowed to return to the country.”
Cao Hong’s eyes revealed naked killing intent, and his figure disappeared from its original spot.
Zheng Chi then called the surviving Immortal Alliance disciples to clean up the battlefield, then sent a few disciples to use Storage Rings to send all the injured to nearby towns for treatment, while he continued on his way with the decoys.
As for the dead Immortal Alliance disciples, Zheng Chi was afraid of trouble, so he ordered them to be buried on the spot. Anyway, he could compensate their families with some pensions when he returned.
Qi Huang had already found a safe small grove and dived in. Because she was too excited, she started dancing awkwardly with her hands and feet. After a while, she stopped, still not satisfied, and sighed, “Not bad, this dance is quite addictive, no wonder my cheap daddy always dances.”
Qi Huang calmed herself down and thought about the process of moving the Heaven Mending Crystal before, she couldn’t help but feel proud, thinking that she was truly wise, otherwise the process would not have been so smooth.
This was indeed the case. Although Qi Huang’s strength was overwhelmingly strong, she was, after all, a crippled cultivator, and naturally had obvious weaknesses, such as killing intent, such as the specially made clothes of the Nine Nether Demonic Cat, and such as “Heaven-Concealing Water.”
Qi Huang was very fortunate. She had overcome the first two under chance circumstances, but Heaven-Concealing Water was still not possible. Since this thing could shield spiritual sense, it could ignore the suppression of spiritual sense.
As everyone knows, in the Cultivation World, any cultivator who reaches the Heavenly Punishment Realm will continuously sprinkle Heaven-Concealing Water on themselves to avoid heavenly tribulations. Cao Hong is naturally no exception.
This meant that Qi Huang’s spiritual sense could not capture Cao Hong at that time, and naturally could not suppress him. If the two sides fought, she could only rely on her raw strength to deal with him.
Unfortunately, Qi Huang’s real cultivation level was only Huashen. Once the opponent made the first move, she could not even see the other party’s figure clearly, and she would fall into a passive situation of being beaten.
Qi Huang knew her shortcomings and her strengths, so she took the initiative. With one move, she scared Cao Hong, making him not have the courage to resist, so she won so easily.
From this incident, it is not difficult to see that although Qi Huang’s spiritual sense is currently the strongest in the entire Cultivation World, due to the Heaven-Concealing Water and the fact that she is a cultivator with a weak point, her shortcomings will be exposed when facing a Heavenly Punishment Realm expert. Whoever makes the first move has the initiative.
Qi Huang had already realized this, which is why she was so low-key, insisting on entering the Tencel Valley Treasure Land under the banner of the Immortal Alliance, after all, dealing with an Immortal Alliance Leader who had sprinkled Heaven-Concealing Water would not be that easy.
Qi Huang thought that she had to use a trick to deal with an old man in the early stage of Heavenly Punishment Realm, and she calmed down, thinking: “It seems I have to find a way to solve the problem of my spiritual sense being restrained by Heaven-Concealing Water as soon as possible, otherwise I will definitely suffer in the future.”
Just then, the main body’s mind transmission sounded.
“What did you do with that Heaven Mending Crystal?”
Cheng Hong Ling asked as soon as she spoke.
“How did you know that person was me?”
Qi Huang asked doubtfully, wondering if her disguise skills were that bad.
“Nonsense, only my father dances like that. If it’s not you, who else could it be?”
Cheng Hong Ling said speechlessly.
“Hehe…”
Qi Huang laughed embarrassedly.
“You danced well. Don’t do it again in the future.”
Cheng Hong Ling commented, then continued to ask, “You haven’t answered me yet. How did you know that Alliance Leader Cao had the Heaven Mending Crystal?”
Qi Huang straightened her expression and then recounted everything she had seen before.
“I didn’t expect this thing to belong to the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom.”
Cheng Hong Ling said with some surprise.
“Yes, that guy hid it in a sachet, and it was wrapped in a piece of cloth specially made from the skin of the Nine Nether Demonic Cat. Spiritual sense couldn’t detect it at all. It was truly too clever.”
Qi Huang couldn’t help but sigh.
“Now I finally understand. The reason why Zheng Yuan specifically cut off Zhao Xi’er’s arm before setting off was not just to kill the chickens to warn the monkeys. The most important thing was to lure her father into using the Heaven Mending Crystal. This is also why they didn’t treat her properly all the way.”
Cheng Hong Ling suddenly realized.
“Yes, it does seem like that now. The people of the Immortal Alliance probably discovered those relatives causing trouble outside the door before they set off, so they set up this trap.”
Qi Huang agreed.
“But why did Cao Hong and the others pop out of Zhao Xi’er’s sachet? When did they get in?”
Cheng Hong Ling continued to ask.
“I was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it a little, I got an idea. Cao Hong and the others must have first hidden in a Storage Ring that had Heaven-Concealing Water sprinkled on it, and had the disciples who came to support them bring it over. Then, while Zhao Xi’er was unconscious, they quietly stuffed it into her sachet. Only in this way could it be done without anyone knowing.”
Qi Huang expressed her guess.
“Makes sense.”
Cheng Hong Ling agreed after a moment of thought.
“These old foxes are simply too cunning. If I didn’t have strong strength and only relied on my brain, I might not be their match.”
Qi Huang regretted.
“By the way, what exactly do you want the Heaven Mending Crystal for?”
Cheng Hong Ling persistently asked, after all, that thing was “stolen goods.”
“You should still remember that my Master, Hu Bing, had an arm and three fingers cut off by people from the Juexian Cult because of me. This seriously affected his path of cultivation. Now that there is a way to save him, as a disciple, I naturally have to seize the opportunity.”
Qi Huang reminded.
“I see.”
Cheng Hong Ling suddenly realized, and her tone softened a bit, “I can understand your filial piety, but don’t forget that it is someone else’s property.”
“Don’t worry, I will discuss it with the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom. This is why I saved them.”
Qi Huang quickly explained.
“Alright, but you’d better hurry up. We’re continuing our journey. The Tencel Valley Treasure Land is almost here.”
Cheng Hong Ling urged.
Qi Huang hesitated for a moment, then added, “Actually, there is another reason why I am holding the Heaven Mending Crystal. Do you know? The first time I saw it, the blood tears on my face burned like fire, and that urgent feeling spread throughout my body, and finally reached my heart, making me inexplicably want to get angry.”
“There’s such a thing?”
Cheng Hong Ling was surprised and uncertain. After a moment of contemplation, she slowly said, “Your blood tears came from Lu Yao. She has always been against mending the heavens, and this thing is what’s left after a Heavenly Being mended the heavens. Could it be that this has awakened the anger in her residual blood tears?”
“Makes sense!”
Qi Huang suddenly realized that she had to admit that she was only clever, while the main body was wise.
The main body and clone stopped their conversation, and Qi Huang also turned and entered the Storage Ring containing the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom, preparing to trade with him.
What Qi Huang didn’t know was that at this moment, in a universe in a certain world, a terrifying female zombie woke up from a giant star. She flipped over, and her massive body shattered the entire mountain range. The Yin Energy emanating from her body instantly extinguished all life on the surface of the planet.
The remaining evil spirits on the star felt endless pressure, and they all knelt down towards the direction where the female zombie was.
The female zombie opened her eyes, full of resentment. In the darkness, it was like two violently erupting volcanoes. She looked at the deep starry sky and murmured to herself, “It’s the aura of the blood tears! It has finally awakened.”
“Pass down my order, all evil spirits will set out immediately to find the woman with red marks like blood tears on her right face.”
The female zombie then commanded. Although her face was enormous, her features were exceptionally beautiful and delicate, even showing a hint of Lu Yao’s appearance.
“Yes!”
The powerful evil spirits on the star respectfully took the order and rushed out towards the universe in all directions.
The same thing happened in countless other worlds. Female evil spirits who looked very much like Lu Yao woke up from their slumber. They all felt the aura of the blood tears, and began to search the universe.
