It became a one sided massacre!
Stab. Stab. As if she did not know how to feel tired, she continuously impaled the blue haired man on the ground. The hatred that had long been accumulating in her heart was finally exploding.
After a long time, she finally heard urgent voices.
"Aoshuang!"
"Miss!"
A pair gentle hands grabbed Qi Aoshuang's wrists, stopping her out of control actions.
Qi Aoshuang turned around abruptly and met with Feng Yixuan's pained eyes.
"Enough, Aoshuang. It's over." Leng Lingyun's voice carried to Qi Aoshuang's ear.
The red aura around Qi Aoshuang slowly faded away. Her gaze also regained focus. Without giving the mangled body another glance, Qi Aoshuang turned around and left.
Feng Yixuan stood in place, watching Qi Aoshuang's leaving figure. He shared a glance with Leng Lingyun. The both silently agreed not to follow. Currently, Qi Aoshuang needed some time alone.
Everything was in messy. All of them had been killed. After searching through the bodies, they found a small badge that Qi Aoshuang had seen before. It was white with a black bolt of lightning, the emblem of the Black Lightning organization.
They left the stone forest without a word. Qi Aoshuang led in silence, dragging the sword behind her. Everyone else was also silent as they followed her.
"Chirp chirp..." White Emperor called out worriedly from Leng Lingyun's shoulder. (Translation: Is Aoshuang ok?)
"Peep peep!" Black Feather called out from Feng Yixuan's shoulder. He waved his claws at White Emperor. (Translation: The hell you worried about? Why would she not be ok?)
Xi Shaoqi led two camels, following gloomily. And so, Qi Aoshuang walked expressionlessly, the Azure Ripple blade leaving a long mark on the ground. The blood had already dried on the blade. No one stopped her, choosing to find her silently.
Night slowly descended. Qi Aoshuang finally stopped. She stabbed the sword into the ground and then sat down. Everyone else shared a glance, then all silently walked over. Xi Shaoqi and Xi Shaosi started to set up camp. Feng Yixuan and Leng Lingyun started a bonfire to prepare their dinner.
"I am seeking the earth spirits and dwarves in order to find something the races own." Qi Aoshuang slowly became to explain.
Everyone froze and stopped what they were doing. Qi Aoshuang had never explained why they were looking for them.
"I want to assemble the God Feather Heaven Slayer." Qi Aoshuang spoke softly. Currently, Qi Aoshuang had calmed down. When she saw everyone working diligently, she had felt a sliver of warmth in her heart.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
"What is that?" Xi Shaoqi frowned, not understanding.
Everyone broke out in cold sweat. How could someone act so righteously when talking about stealing?
"Actually, we should not need to. The merfolk are extremely proud. Provided that humans treat them graciously, it might be another story." Leng Lingyun looked down and pondered.
"Graciously?" Feng Yixuan smacked a fist into his palm excitedly. "I have an idea."
"What is it?" The Xi brothers asked at the same time.
"In a hidden harbor of Yowusali, there is an enclosure that raises merfolk, specifically captured merfolk. Once the merfolk become mature, they give the merfolk a drug, cut their tails, make them grow two legs, and then sell them to humans," Feng Yixuan explained. "The merfolk are an extremely beautiful race, and before they come of age, they are genderless. Only after maturing do they select their gender. However, the merfolk and forced to select their gender based off of clientele wishes."
"Young master Feng, how do you know so much?" Xi Shaoqi started to look at Feng Yixuan in a strange manner, then whispered, "Could it be that you bought a mermaid..." Before Xi Shaoqi could finish speaking, he was cut off by Feng Yixuan's murderous gaze. He immediately swallowed back his words.
"The enclosure originally wanted our Feng clan to become investors. Although it is an extremely profitable business, my father believed it was too cruel and refused. Of course, we also don't have the authority to interfere," Feng Yixuan said helplessly.
"Is your plan to save those captured merfolk?" Leng Lingyun asked seriously.
"And destroy the place while we're at it." Feng Yixuan nodded. "The merfolk will definitely repay such a great favor. At the very least, they will not attack us when we enter the underwater kingdom, even if we don't get a warm welcome."
"Do you know where the enclosure is?" Xi Shaoqi asked.
"Nope," Feng Yixuan replied honestly.
"Fuck, why are you telling us about it then?" Xi Shaoqi cursed.
"You're such an idiot. Why can't we just find it?" Feng Yixuan retorted disdainfully. Xi Shaoqi's face whitened.
"I..." Xi Shaoqi clenched his teeth.
"As expected of an idiot." Feng Yixuan rolled his eyes and sighed.
"I've had it with you!" Xi Shaoqi threw himself at Feng Yixuan.
"You think you can beat me?" Feng Yixuan dodged agiley and clicked his tongue derisively.
Xi Shaoqi had face planted into the ground and started to spit out sand continuously continuously.
Qi Aoshuang watched on with a faint smile.
Feng Yixuan had been focused on teasing Xi Shaoqi, but he noticed Qi Aoshuang's rare smile. He let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
When Leng Lingyun saw Qi Aoshuang's expression, an indescribable feeling flashed across his eyes.
"Black Lightning won't give up now," Leng Lingyun suddenly said. "The first time, we tasted their strength. This time, we only broke the barrier from Qi Aoshuang's knowledge of the Spiritual Eye. What about next time?"
Qi Aoshuang's eyes also became cold. This time, it was really a lucky coincidence she knew how to break the spell. If she didn't know about the Spiritual Eye, then perhaps they truly would have been trapped. She had been able to kill them this time because of her increased strength, but how strong were they compared to the rest of Black Lightning? If they were the weakest ones, how powerful was the organization...
