Chapter 118: After Chapter 95, test the younger sister more
Despite the close behavior, Qiuye’s gaze remained cold and clear, and she avoided making eye contact with Jiang Shouzhong.
Guided by her memory, she arrived at a woodshed and immediately separated from Jiang Shouzhong, speaking indifferently to the following Xia He, "This place is relatively safe, I’ve hidden here before. The location where we need to rescue someone is in the southeast, we have to pass through two smaller yards, and that area is the most heavily guarded. I suggest that Master Jiang stays here to support us."
Xia He thought for a moment and shook her head gently, "Let’s keep it simple. I’ll create a diversion to draw them away, and you take the chance to rescue the person. Meet back here afterwards, or if we can’t, just get away."
"But..."
"That’s decided then."
Xia He moved swiftly like a specter and darted out of the woodshed.
Feeling somewhat helpless about her elder sister’s stubbornness, Qiuye turned to Jiang Shouzhong and said, "You can’t be of any help here, just wait, I’ll go and rescue them."
What do you mean I can’t be of any help?
Those words are hurtful.
Just as Jiang Shouzhong was about to speak, Qiuye took out a green bamboo whistle from her bosom and threw it to him, "Blow this whistle if you encounter danger." After saying that, she swiftly left the woodshed.
Jiang Shouzhong was left alone in the woodshed.
The man scratched his head, "Then what’s my role here? A mascot?"
Since they didn’t need his cumbersome help, Jiang Shouzhong simply decided to sit in the cabin and wait patiently.
"Whew... Whew..."
Suddenly, after a while, a whining, sobbing sound faintly emanated within the woodshed.
The sound was eerily haunting, as if someone was crying with a crushed larynx.
"Who!?"
Jiang Shouzhong was startled and subconsciously reached for the fire gun at his waist, only to find it empty, remembering that he had left it at home when changing into his night clothes.
But upon remembering that he was still a junior master cultivator, he scoffed at his fears.
Besides, there was a Snake Demon outside protecting.
The sound was coming from a corner pile of wood. Facing Jiang Shouzhong’s reprimand, there was no response.
Jiang Shouzhong circulated the qi within his body, preparing to go and investigate.
Just then, the door to the woodshed slammed open with a "bang," startling him. Turning his head, he saw Qiuye carrying a girl at the door, evidently the rescued He Lianlan.
That was a quick rescue.
Jiang Shouzhong was surprised.
"Let’s go!"
Without any further ado, Qiuye coldly urged.
Seeing Jiang Shouzhong staring at the corner wood pile without moving, the puzzled woman rushed into the room, grabbed his arm, and forcefully pulled him out of the woodshed, not giving him any chance to speak.
Outside, there was continuous noise and disturbance.
Not far away, flames reached the sky, furiously blazing.
"Is it on fire?"
Jiang Shouzhong asked in surprise.
Qiuye, dragging the man’s arm and dashing past the eaves towards the direction of Huailan Lake, said indifferently, "My elder sister set a building on fire."
Set a building on fire?
Is your elder sister that fierce?
Jiang Shouzhong was shocked.
Before he could finish speaking, Qiuye suddenly thrust him away.
Upon hearing a clear "clang" sound, Jiang Shouzhong felt an extremely sharp Qi Blade pass between them.
On a rooftop not far to the left, a fox-like woman holding a pipa smiled enticingly at them.
"Won’t you two stay for a cup of tea?"
Qin Shier!
Jiang Shouzhong’s pupils constricted.
Damn it, you almost got your reincarnated parents killed.
Seeing an enemy adds fuel to the fire!
Gazing at the enchantingly seductive Qin Shier on the rooftop, Qiuye’s eyes flashed coldly. She handed the girl on her back to Jiang Shouzhong and said flatly, "Take good care of her, stick close to the eaves as you run towards Huailan Lake."
After speaking, Qiuye’s toes touched the ground lightly, her long sword sweeping up a crescent-like white arc, charging towards Qin Shier.
"Yo, this sister has quite the temper. Little sister kindly invites you for tea, why do you draw your sword the moment we meet?" Qin Shier’s smile was alluring, her slender hands gently resting on the strings of her pipa, "Since that’s the case, little sister will just have to play along."
The woman’s fingertips flicked lightly, like a dragonfly skimming over water.
Whoosh!
A solid-like blade of Qi sliced through the tranquil night air.
Qiuye deftly dodged to the side, her small boots lightly tapping on the corner of the eaves, her slender waist gently twisting as she continued her charge towards the adversary, several strands of hair cut by the sharp blade slowly fell to the ground.
Qin Shier’s smile broadened, her right fingertips dexterously flicking up, plucking the strings from thick to thin sequentially, each producing a clear and melodious sound, beneath which hid deadly invisible Qi Blades.
Qiuye changed directions seven or eight times, dodging east and flicking west like a horse jumping over a mountain stream, each time narrowly evading her opponent’s attacks.
The rooftop and the ground below suffered as they were slashed with nearly invisible fine grooves.
Broken tiles flew about, and stones were agitated, causing Jiang Shouzhong’s heart to tremble with fear.
This was like a battle between immortals.
After several dodges, Qiuye finally managed to close in on Qin Shier, only six or seven steps away.
Her long sword slashed horizontally, releasing a cascading blade light that seemed poised to sever Qin Shier’s lush, delicate waist.
Qin Shier remained composed, her left hand calmly sliding across the pipa’s fingerboard, her right fingers like dancing sprites, heavily stroking the strings, drawing out a series of thunderous tremors.
Qiuye immediately retracted her sword and spun around, amidst the clanging sound, countless sparks flew, and incessant piercing cold Qi Blades swept around her, several of which slashed through Qiuye’s night robes, exposing her pale skin.
The intense qi force compelled Qiuye to fly backward, retreating a hundred steps back.
Qiuye gasped for breath, glancing at the blood oozing from her right shoulder.
In terms of cultivation, Qiuye was actually slightly superior to Qin Shier. However, during the last escape, she had been hit by the latter’s hidden weapon "Underworld Flower," suffering a setback, and her injuries had not yet healed, naturally putting her at a disadvantage.
