Chapter 899: Chapter 67: Life Soul Spring
Xia Qingyan’s eyes turned red, as if he might pounce at any moment and tear Zhao Xiaoxiao’s clothes to shreds.
"You—Brother Xia, you, you actually—"
Zhao Xiaoxiao exclaimed, her tone filled with intense disbelief.
"Do you think that just because you saved me from a desperate situation, I should be grateful to you?"
Xia Qingyan sneered, his gaze seemed as if it were about to burst into flames.
"Brother Xia, I didn’t expect you to repay kindness with enmity. I thought only that world was so cruel, but I didn’t expect this world to be the same. The human heart is unfathomable, Master was right. In this world, being kind won’t let you survive."
Zhao Xiaoxiao, at this point, already realized she had been deceived. This person might have vaguely known her character and deliberately put himself in a desperate situation to lower her guard.
Or perhaps this person was inherently treacherous and heartless.
"Isn’t it too late to realize this now? I advise you, don’t think about self-destructing your Divine Soul or anything. This ancient broken array is specifically a Soul-binding Ancient Array with powerful suppression effects.
If you don’t cooperate, I will use the Sword Illusion Realm to engrave all your humiliating appearances and then project them onto this plane, so that your Master will see and be incredibly disappointed in you!"
"Even if you die, I won’t spare your corpse, I’ll make sure your name is infamous across both the True God Plane and the Sword Burial Plane!"
"You, you are simply insane!"
Zhao Xiaoxiao was stunned, she never imagined there were such insane cultivators in this world.
"Heh, what I, Xia Qingyan, enjoy most is precisely this. You’re not the first, and you won’t be the last! Now, take your clothes off yourself, or when I do it, you’ll know what true humiliation is!"
"Of course, if you obey and submit, it will be a different scenario. My Xia Family now relies on the Returning True Clan, and I am a member of the Xia Family Imperial Family, I can definitely give you unimaginable cultivation resources and a pleasure that is beyond words.
Xia Qingyan sneered.
Zhao Xiaoxiao’s eyes were filled with endless pleading, but she couldn’t resist Xia Qingyan’s gaze.
She finally realized that even if she did yield, the result would likely be equally tragic.
Moreover, how could Zhao Xiaoxiao submit to such a disgraceful act?
Better broken jade than intact tile.
Zhao Xiaoxiao gritted her jade-like teeth, her face extremely pale.
For the first time, she harbored an intense killing intent towards a cultivator, but even with a divine Abnormal Treasure like the Shennong Cauldron, she, along with her Divine Soul, was trapped here by this ancient broken array, which possessed unique Divine Soul power and exerted strong suppression on both soul and realm.
Yet, Xia Qingyan was prepared and somehow shielded himself from this influence, allowing him to take action here, while Zhao Xiaoxiao was as powerless as an ordinary person.
Zhao Xiaoxiao continuously contemplated, striving to gather energy from her body, but the more she did, the deeper her heart sank.
Because every attempt ended in failure.
Countless failures led to endless despair.
As the shadow of despair continued to grow, the all-consuming sense of powerlessness would overwhelm her, causing her to completely lose her fighting spirit and become utterly numb.
Zhao Xiaoxiao didn’t want to give up, but she had no power to resist, she could only stare intently, watching Xia Qingyan, like a demon, step by step approach her.
...
With a sneer, Xia Qingyan approached Zhao Xiaoxiao step by step, each step was purposefully heavy, as if trying to break down Zhao Xiaoxiao’s will through psychological pressure.
Looking at Zhao Xiaoxiao’s eyes, filled with fear and despair, almost devoid of light, Xia Qingyan found himself increasingly excited.
Only in such a state, conquering an extraordinary woman felt truly fulfilling!
Not just body and mind, but her will and Divine Soul must be destroyed!
A flame ignited in Xia Qingyan’s heart, almost driving him to pounce immediately, but he continued to walk slowly, then reached out forcefully to tear Zhao Xiaoxiao’s dress.
Just at that moment, the ancient array suddenly trembled, and a woman in a light blue gauze dress descended like a fairy from the sky.
This woman was the Heavenly Destiny Soul Girl, Long Xianyin.
"Pfft—"
Long Xianyin arrived through the void, following the remnants of the ancient array plate, and suddenly found this place, immediately discovering the situation between Zhao Xiaoxiao and Xia Qingyan.
She initially thought the two were messing around here, but after hearing Xia Qingyan’s words, a nameless fury rose on her face.
Long Xianyin descended and froze Xia Qingyan’s action, his attention then turned to Long Xianyin’s incredibly beautiful aura—even though her appearance seemed ordinary, Xia Qingyan, with his experience, naturally knew it was a disguise.
Suddenly, he was overjoyed in his heart.
"I didn’t expect such an opportunity, to enjoy two women at once—"
Before Xia Qingyan could finish, a cold voice spoke: "Scum."
"What? Fairy, what are you saying? Could it be you’re complimenting me, Xia Qingyan? If so, it shows that Fairy has sharp insight."
Xia Qingyan said with a smile, his gaze unrestrained.
Obviously, he was still waiting for this Fairy to suddenly find herself unable to use her abilities, then be caught easily.
However, Xia Qingyan never expected that the woman in the light blue dress would not even glance at him again, but instead turned her gaze to Zhao Xiaoxiao and said, "A decent talent, able to achieve the extreme of forty-nine in combat power, very rare. If spoiled like this, wouldn’t it be such a waste."
She spoke to herself, and these words made Xia Qingyan’s heart tremble sharply, a speechless chill immediately rushing through his body.
Xia Qingyan, being cunning, would instantly flee at full speed whenever something felt wrong, yet unthinkably, he suddenly found himself unable to move, as if frozen in the void.
"I have a particular hatred for male cultivators who betray feelings, and despise those who abuse female cultivators viciously. If you were in our Heavenly Soul Plane, a person like you would never die comfortably. But here, in the incomplete Sword Burial Plane, well, I’ll give you a swift end."
Long Xianyin said indifferently.
Her words for Xia Qingyan were akin to a thunderbolt, yet for Zhao Xiaoxiao, they were the sound of salvation, the true fairy sound.
"Immortal, Fairy, spare my life—"
Xia Qingyan’s words were abruptly cut short.
This was forcibly interrupted by a terrifying force.
Xia Qingyan’s body was still fixed there, his flesh unharmed.
But Xia Qingyan was dead just like that.
The brilliance in his eyes completely vanished, because his Divine Soul was synchronized by a tremor of soul power from Long Xianyin. That was a powerful soul power fluctuation, a soul power attack.
Divine Soul oscillation and the intense power of destruction made Xia Qingyan’s Divine Soul almost instantly turn to ashes, God and Body Annihilation.
This was truly killing without batting an eye, and Long Xianyin didn’t even take another glance at Xia Qingyan’s death, as if considering even one more look at such a man filthy.
"This array is merely a soul power soul lock, very simple, I’ve already broken it, you are restored now."
Long Xianyin said, looking at Zhao Xiaoxiao, her gaze seemed slightly gentler.
"Xiaoxiao thanks the Fairy for life-saving grace."
Zhao Xiaoxiao was immensely grateful, nearly escaping from hell this time; she had almost lost all hope, now naturally feeling reborn.
"No need, I merely did it conveniently. The cultivation world is quite cruel, why did you associate with such a soul power corrupted cultivator?"
Long Xianyin asked.
She wasn’t curious, just felt it was indescribable that a girl like Zhao Xiaoxiao, such an extraordinary woman, could be suppressed so easily.
"Fairy, the situation is like this..."
Zhao Xiaoxiao sighed and explained the previous circumstances thoroughly, holding nothing back.
"You hold your purity high, and value loyalty, you are more suited to develop in our Heavenly Soul Plane. Why not come with me to the Heavenly Soul Plane? I have quite a status there and can offer you various cultivation help."
Long Xianyin said.
"Fairy, thank you for your kindness, Xiaoxiao fears she cannot go. After training during this period, Xiaoxiao yearns more for Master, nearly uncontrollably. Xiaoxiao decides to stay with Master long-term in the future."
Zhao Xiaoxiao said, feeling a slight sense of loss.
"Who is your Master? Provide a strand of soul energy, I can help you find him."
Thinking of the current circumstances and that the Jiang family has now sealed its mountain, while the person before her is from another plane with immense power, if she helps, it would certainly be easier.
In case there is danger to Master, perhaps she could even help.
Zhao Xiaoxiao thought simply, without much complexity, she immediately said: "Fairy, Xiaoxiao’s Master is Emperor Qi Sword Body Zhou Yan, the same Zhou Yan who once fiercely battled the Jiang family’s Jiang He Venerable. As for soul energy, Xiaoxiao is ashamed, unable to provide."
"Hmm? It’s him?"
Long Xianyin trembled slightly, appearing quite shocked.
"Fairy, do you, do you perhaps know my Master?"
Xiaoxiao asked joyfully.
"No, not personally, just heard a bit. After all... who does not know the once invincible Lei Yan King? Furthermore, this person... this person... surrounded by wives and concubines, is one type of cultivator I dislike, thus remembered deeply."
Long Xianyin replied calmly.
She was genuinely calm.
But the meticulous Zhao Xiaoxiao distinctly sensed Long Xianyin was not as composed as she appeared.
Yet the reason why, Zhao Xiaoxiao did not know.
But Zhao Xiaoxiao could instinctively confirm that Long Xianyin truly held no hostility toward Master Zhou Yan.
An inexplicable feeling, yet Zhao Xiaoxiao sometimes firmly trusts this feeling born from nowhere.
