Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Annihilating Niu Yan (1)_1
"Aren’t you going to save them?"
Upon reaching the street, Cang Jin watched as Dugu Qianye left without hesitation and couldn’t help but ask. Weren’t women supposed to be soft-hearted? Why was she indifferent to those people who were being held captive?
"Why should I save them? If I did, by tomorrow morning, the Divine Temple would find out, and they’d tighten the security in Holy Sea City, which isn’t good for me. Why would I do something so thankless and difficult? I don’t even know them."
After Dugu Qianye finished speaking, she called out to Xiaoyin and dashed away. At a crossroads, she chose the direction leading to the altar. Cang Jin followed her all the way to it.
Different from what they had seen during the day, the altar at this hour seemed even more sinister and bewitching, its two topmost black columns looking like pathways into darkness.
Dugu Qianye stood below the altar, recalling how Shi Nan had vanished in a flash on top of the altar during the day, convinced that there must be some mechanism in the altar. She had Cang Jin find a place to hide. Then she walked onto the altar step by step, when suddenly, many beautiful images flashed through her mind. In every scene, there was a noble and elegant woman telling Qianye she was on the path to happiness and joy, and by believing in her, she would obtain eternal life. Dugu Qianye repeated the woman’s words in her mind, but she felt as if she were on a path of no return.
"There’s something wrong here."
Jiang Yu suddenly appeared beside Dugu Qianye and grabbed her hand. A white mist spread rapidly from his hands, enveloping Dugu Qianye completely. Dugu Qianye abruptly woke up from those images.
"What happened?"
Seeing Dugu Qianye regain her composure, Jiang Yu said, "There should be Phantom Stones inside those two columns."
"Phantom Stones?"
"Yes," Jiang Yu nodded. "Phantom Stones, also known as Yellowstone, when a Yellowstone Fiend that has matured is tamed, it can set up a Phantom Realm according to its master’s thoughts to achieve the purpose of brainwashing. Those two columns should contain Phantom Stones, and you were just being brainwashed in the Phantom Realm."
Thinking she had almost been brainwashed into believing in a woman she had never met, someone so malicious at heart, Dugu Qianye couldn’t help but feel a chill.
"Thank you, Jiang Yu," Dugu Qianye said with genuine gratitude. Luckily, Jiang Yu was there; otherwise, she might not be herself anymore.
"Ha. No need to thank me. I just really hate Yellowstone Fiends," Jiang Yu seemed embarrassed to be thanked for the first time. "Yellowstone Fiends are usually the embodiment of evil, liking to tamper with people’s thoughts, bringing shame to our Phantom Stones."
"Cough cough," Dugu Qianye was slightly stunned by Jiang Yu’s words. "But I can’t stay inside your Spiritual Mist forever."
"With me here, just act as if it doesn’t exist," Jiang Yu said. "I didn’t expect to encounter a Yellowstone Fiend here just now, allowing it to exploit the situation. Where I am, when is it their turn to jump about!"
"Right. I saw Shi Nan today, the same person who previously took Huagui out to prey on people. I suspect that Huagui should be here," Dugu Qianye said. "So I plan to see where the mechanism is."
"That..." Jiang Yu didn’t finish speaking when he suddenly said, "Someone is coming."
Dugu Qianye saw it too. She took Jiang Yu into the Refining Demon Pot and monitored the situation outside through it. They saw Shi Nan approaching the altar slowly, holding a child in one hand. Seeing the child in his hand, Dugu Qianye and Jiang Yu understood that it must be another arrangement for Huagui! The two unconscious children were still unaware of the impending disaster facing them.
Dugu Qianye seemed to see again everything that Little Qianye experienced that afternoon! Their pale faces, reminiscent of Little Qianye’s paper-thin cheeks.
"I must go save them!" Dugu Qianye said, looking at the child in Shi Nan’s hands.
"Are you sure? If you go out, you will blow your cover. It won’t be convenient to do anything in the future," Jiang Yu said disapprovingly.
"I have a way," Dugu Qianye said.
She took out the mask she had purchased in Baishi City from her Space Ring and put it on her face. Instantly, she transformed into another person. Then, she took out a set of white clothes from the ring and put them on, transforming into an inconspicuous soldier of the Divine Temple.
"Is that the Divine Temple’s uniform? Where did you get it?" Jiang Yu questioned, eyeing the clothes Dugu Qianye wore, which were undoubtedly the temple’s distinctive white attire.
"Fen Jian gave it to me," Dugu Qianye replied. Seeing Shi Nan approaching the sacrificial altar, Dugu Qianye left Jiang Yu inside the Refining Demon Pot and went out on her own.
Shi Nan, holding a child in one hand, contemplated where to capture more children next time. Hua Gui was currently at a critical juncture in its evolution, and it had to feed on children to ensure a foolproof process. However, the children on the nearby islands had almost been devoured by it. It seemed that next time he would have to venture further afield to kidnap them.
As Shi Nan stepped onto the altar, he suddenly realized there was a person standing there.
"Which hall are you from?" Shi Nan asked, not taking Dugu Qianye seriously at all.
Dugu Qianye looked at Shi Nan—it was this man who had left such terrifying memories in Little Qianye, and now he was planning to send another two children into hell!
"It’s none of your business which hall I’m from; I want the children in your hands."
Shi Nan, clueless that Dugu Qianye was there to confront him, would have lived his years in vain if he had known. He tossed the two children to the ground and looked at Dugu Qianye, "You’ve got guts, daring to snatch someone from my grasp! You were unlucky to bump into me, so I can’t let you go, but it turns out you’re throwing yourself into the lion’s mouth."
After speaking, Shi Nan summoned Phantom Power with both hands, and a sea of flames slowly formed in front of him, each flame resembling a beast with a gaping mouth, lunging at Dugu Qianye.
Dugu Qianye also summoned Phantom Power, forming a small chunk of ice in her palm. Shi Nan didn’t underestimate the ice Dugu Qianye held. Although she appeared to be only a seventh-level Phantom Master, he believed that if she dared to confront him, she must have her own capabilities. Never underestimating any enemy was a crucial condition for his survival until now.
And sure enough, as Dugu Qianye threw the ice into the flames, the boiling fire gradually extinguished, even though the ice was only a small piece.
Seeing the fire go out, Shi Nan summoned Phantom Power again, quickly forming a firewall that enclosed Dugu Qianye inside. The temperature around became scorching hot, as if everything was being melted.
Yet, surrounded by the firewall, Dugu Qianye did not panic. She built a wall of water around herself, confronting the firewall.
"Ice and water elements?!" Shi Nan hadn’t expected that in addition to ice Phantom Techniques, Dugu Qianye also had water Phantom Techniques, and her Phantom Power was so robust that it was enough to form a water wall.
Dugu Qianye, controlling the water wall, pressed it against the firewall. In the instant the water extinguished the fire, she executed the Ethereal Step Technique, appearing in front of Shi Nan and aimed a kick at his lower body. Unexpectedly, he quickly dodged. Such speed was not something a Phantom Master could achieve—he had not anticipated that Shi Nan was skilled in both Phantom Techniques and swordplay!
