Chapter 481 Blue-water Altar
Xiao Chen and the others ran into the valley and saw that they were surrounded by ancient trees which green vines entwined, there were also strange-looking flowers that blossomed at their fullest under the trees, and colorful butterflies were dancing above them. In a distance, the sound of a flowing stream could be heard. There was a refreshing fragrance in the air.
Just a moment ago, they were still in a chase of life and death, but now they had come to a place with such a quiet scenery. Everyone felt relaxed and even felt like lying down on the lawn for a while.
However Yi Tong’s frown grew deeper and deeper, and he suddenly said, “Be careful, there is a strange Demon aura everywhere. It’s a tad unusual.”
Hearing this, everyone was immediately alert and they carefully moved forward. Indeed, there was too much difference between inside and outside. It was abnormal.
After a while, they had moved deeper into the valley, the sound of gurgling water sounded in everyone’s ears, but after walking for a long time, there was no sight of a stream nearby. Suddenly, a layer of fog shrouded over them, Xiao Ning said hurriedly, “Be careful!”
At the end of his words, the white fog had shrouded over them. The fog was so thick that everyone could not see each other. Xiao Chen shouted immediately, “Xin’er!” But he got no response.
“Senior Gui Xian! Big Brother Xiao Ning! Ziyun’er!” Xiao Chen shouted everyone’s name, but the people who were around him before seemed to have all disappeared at this moment. This feeling gave him a sudden chill on his back.
“Mister…”
At this moment, a soft voice suddenly sounded from not far away. It sounded extremely charming, as though one could melt in it. Xiao Chen waved the fog in front of him and stared at the distance where the voice came from, faintly seeing a beautiful woman walking slowly towards him.
“Who are you!”
Xiao Chen was immediately alerted, but with the fog in front of him, he could not see the woman’s appearance clearly. He could only vaguely see that the woman was in thin clothes, wearing only a translucent gauze, and was pretty seductive.
“Mister…”
The woman’s waist was so slim that it seemed as though it could break while walking. As she sashayed over, Xiao Chen held his breath. The woman was wearing only a light gauze, which was the same as being naked.
“Hee hee, Mister, am I beautiful?” The woman finally reached Xiao Chen. At a closer look, she was utterly gorgeous, with a beautiful face like snow that was flawless, her eyes were watery, her eyebrows like a crescent moon and there was a playful smile on her face.
Xiao Chen frowned, and said coldly, “Who are you? Where are my friends? Where did you move them to!” The bewitching girl smiled and blinked, saying, “No, you tell me first, am I beautiful?” Then she stretched out her arms, trying to wrap them around Xiao Chen ‘s neck.
Xiao Chen took a step back and said coldly, “Don’t force my sword out!”
“Humph!” The bewitching woman hummed softly and said coquettishly, “Mister is really like a block of wood, since the Mister doesn’t like this side of mine, then maybe I should change it to another face for the Mister?”
Xiao Chen frowned and said, “What you mean by to change to another face?”
“Change to another face means…” The bewitching woman suddenly turned her neck around, and a bloody skull face was presented in front of Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen was so scared that he took a big jump back and shouted, “Demon! Take this!”
With a ‘swoosh’, the Unsullied’s sword came out instantly, but the woman suddenly disappeared.
The Unsullied sword flew back, the sword body was suffused with a layer of pale white radiance that guarded around Xiao Chen. After a while, Xiao Chen had walked out a few miles. He had slaughtered 3 of the seductive Demon beings as he walked but he had yet to find where the others were.
No matter how much he shouted, no echoes came around, and this foggy forest seemed to go nowhere, no matter how much he walked, it was as if he kept returning to the same place.
Xiao Chen’s expression became more and more serious. This feeling reminded him of the time in Wuwang Wind Cloud City with Xiaoyue, Yu Yifeng, and others. At that time, everyone unknowingly entered the illusory land. Now in here, he was afraid that it was also an extremely powerful illusory land.
After another half an hour, Xiao Chen was already sweating heavily. He had killed more than a dozen seductive Demon beings along the way, but the more he walked the Demon beings seemed to be more powerful. Even with the Unsullied sword, they had become difficult to deal with. To make matters worse, there was a constant heart-wrenching pain in his left shoulder where his arm was being broken, which made him felt like cutting his shoulder off. But Gui Xian had specifically told him not to touch the wound.
“Just got out of the tiger’s mouth, and then I entered the wolf’s cave. Is this really the end for me, haha…” Xiao Chen laughed bitterly, he leaned on a big tree and sat down slowly. His face was pale at the moment, a thick layer of sweat formed on his forehead, his lips were pale as well, and the wound on his left shoulder had become worse.
At the same time, somewhere else in this valley in a courtyard full of cherry blossoms, a shallow hot spring was in the center of it. A layer of white smoke was floating on the water surface and in the water, there was a woman with snow-white skin bathing.
The pool of water was about a foot deep. The woman was sitting by the pool. The water just reached her chest. A light breeze came and the cherry blossoms flew along with the wind and fell into the water, and on the woman’s shoulders, hair, and chest.
The woman had a faint smile on her face, and her beauty was truly unparalleled. She wore a pair of purple jade pendants on her earlobe, and she had a vermilion beauty teardrop mole on the lower part of her right eye.
“It’s indeed Mystic-Yin and Spirit-calling Enchantment. After I’ve master all of it… hehe…”
Chuckling, the woman’s two slim arms slowly flicked, creating the ripples on the water. Two white legs leaned together were faintly visible under the water as well as that secret area that was hidden by the poolside cherry tree reflection.
“By then, who else could threaten me, and so what it’s her…”
The woman smiled, gently cupped the pool of water with her palm, and slowly poured it onto her neck. The water droplets slowly dripped along her slender fingers and to her neck, and then slipped from the neck to the collarbone, and then fell to her chest before it lowly returned to the pool.
Behind her was a small Phoenix Pavilion. The furnishings in the pavilion were clean and elegant. There was a small bronze mirror on the dressing table and some pearl and jade pieces of jewelry. A purple jade pearl curtain was hung on the back door facing the courtyard. There was a cherry blossom outside the door, and some light purple dresses were hanging on the tree, fluttering in the wind, with a faint fragrance.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps was heard outside the courtyard, followed by a woman in blue walking into the Phoenix Pavilion. She seemed a little rushed as she bowed and said, “Altar Master, someone broke into the water moon illusory land.”
“Oh?” The woman in the pond did not panic, she gently cupped the water and slowly poured it on her shoulder, before slowly saying, “Which fool?”
“Altar Master, it’s four people from the Immortals’ League North Continent branch…” the woman in blue said truthfully.
“The people in the Immortals’ League branch are really getting bolder.” The woman in the pond was still not flustered, and asked, “Who else?”
“There are more than twenty people who I haven’t seen before They should be hunting down by Immortals’ League. One of them seems to be Yu Eleven of Jade Qing Sect.” The woman in blue lowered her head and said with arched hands.
“Yu Eleven?” The woman in the pool frowned, saying to herself, “Isn’t Yu Eleven going to Kunlun? Why did he come here for? Why is he being hunted down by Immortals’ League?”
The woman in blue said, “Yes, I saw him holding the Unsullied sword, and killed more than a dozen of our Charm Devils.”
“Haha, I see.” The woman in the pool smiled and said, “It’s not Yu Eleven, it’s that cheeky boy. Humph. Not a word before coming here, I shall bully him then.”
Speaking of which, the woman in the pond seemed to have a playful smile on her face. She turned her head and said, “You, put a few more powerful Charm Devils, and teach him a lesson otherwise he won’t remember how nice I am.”
“This…” The woman in blue seemed to be in a dilemma, and the woman in the pool immediately shot her a cold glare. “What?”
The woman in blue instantly trembled, and then quickly bowed her head and arched, “I wouldn’t dare to disobey, but that Mister seems, seems to be injured.”
The woman in the pool put away her cold glare and sneered. “When is he ever not injured? Whenever there is a problem, he always loves to fight with people everywhere instead of using his brains. If he isn’t injured, then that will be strange, humph.”
The woman in blue frowned, and continued, “The Mister’s left arm was severed, and the injury was very serious. He must be treated as soon as possible. If he is a friend of the Altar Master…”
“What did you say!” Without waiting for her to finish, the expression of the woman in the pool suddenly changed. “Splash!” She stood up directly from the pool, the water drops fell along her body, and there were still a few cherry blossoms on the skin. It was beautiful to look at, as it reflected on the shallow water, along with the unobstructed scenery of the lakes and mountains.
“His arm is severed?” At this moment, the woman in the pool was frowning, her expression became very dignified. She stretched out her hands, several lilac skirts hanging on the tree immediately floated over and draped over her.
“Go!”
…
In the woods of illusory land, Xiao Chen leaned against a big tree, his face was extremely pale, and his body was gradually weakened. A lot of dark purple blood had flowed from where his left arm was severed. If it continued to worsen, he would not be able to reattach his arm.
Some very powerful Charm Devils charms nearby came around again. Those women that the devil being transformed into were all very seductive, undressed, and said with charming voices, “Is the Mister tired, why not let me serve the Mister…”
“You demons, don’t you dare harm me!” Xiao Chen bellowed. The Unsullied sword flew out, but it could no longer cause any damage to these Charm Devils.
“Since the Mister doesn’t like it nice, then you shall be punished!” Several Charm Devils suddenly made a loud whistle, turned into a bloody scary image and attacked Xiao Chen.
The ferocious power made Xiao Chen a little breathless, and the surrounding leaves were rattling. With his state at the moment, he could not defeat these powerful Charm Devils. At this moment, a few purple radiances flew rapidly from a distance away. “Swoosh!” The few Charm Devils suddenly made a shrill cry and were instantly cut to pieces.
“Who!” Xiao Chen shouted coldly and looked in the direction where the purple radiances came from, but he was obscured by the fog and could not see anything.
Suddenly a light breeze blew, with a faint scent that seemed familiar.
Gradually, the fog seemed to fade, Xiao Chen faintly saw a person approaching him. That person was wearing a light purple dress, as if he had seen it once before, as if he had a wonderful experience with it before.
