Ming Shu was not kidding. She really parted with him and ran in the other direction. Yu Hui cursed and ran too.
The Kirin paused and then turned to Yu Hui and continued chasing him.
Yu Hui: â...â Why are you chasing me!
Ming Shu stood in the corridor that was on fire and smiled as she shouted at him, âI said that it was coming for you.â
Yu Hui: â...â F**k, why is this idiot not dead yet!
When Yu Hui turned around again, there was no sign of Ming Shu in the corridor. He felt a bit hopeless. Was that idiot really planning to give to him to the Kirin as its food?
If he was bitten by it, he would die.
Also, where could he run to when there were flames all around him!
Yu Huiâs path was blocked by the flames. On the other side, Xie Chuyang came down. However, his target was not the Kirin. It was him.
Xie Chuyang attacked him without saying anything.
Their figures were blocked by the burning sky palace so no one on top could see what was happening below.
A sinister light flashed past Xie Chuyangâs eyes and he struck at Yu Hui with fatal blows.
Just as the lethal attacks were going to land on him, Yu Hui spun and he was carried away by someone. However he didnât feel any warmth, only... an oppressive and eerie feeling.
âXie Chuyang, you are really amazing. Are you attacking your junior?â The voice was a bit low. It was not the voice that he was familiar with.
âMaster.â Yu Hui tried to look at the person hugging him. However, she was looking down and he could only see the side profile of her face. She suddenly let him go and left him with an afterimage.
This was not the first time Xie Chuyang saw her like this. Every time she became like this, she would be really powerful. So powerful... no one was her match. She just needed to stand on the clouds and numerous living subjects would bow down and submit to her.
While Xie Chuyang was in a daze, Ming Shu closed in on him and struck him in the chest with her palm.
Xie Chuyang flew out and landed in the courtyard. The edges of his clothes caught on fire and soon, the fire climbed up his clothes.
The Kirin rushed down at this moment and knocked Xie Chuyang over. He had no time to extinguish the fire.
As he was trying to put out the fire hurriedly, he saw the person opposite him subduing the Kirin easily. She placed her hand on the Kirinâs head and with a twist of her fingers, the demon aura on the Kirin started swarming strangely and its entire body slammed into the ground.
The fire jumped and sparkled. The lady stood in the middle. Her dress fluttered silently.
The entire scene was calm and eerie. The colors around her started disappearing and everything turned black and while.
âMaster.â
Someone entered the black and white world and kissed her on the cheeks without any warning.
The colors started appearing again.
Xie Chuyang looked at the two people, in their own world. The pain came at him in waves. This person should be his...
Yu Hui didnât close his eyes. He stared at her straight in the face.
He saw the darkness and oppression in her eyes. His heart shook and he felt something indescribable.
However, in just an instant, a ripple appeared in her eyes. She was full of smiles again, gentle and calm. There was no darkness, as though it was all just his imagination just now.
He felt that he was already very good at acting, but this person in front of him...
So hypocritical.
What was worse was, he actually liked her.
No way!
I donât like her. Donât like. Donât like!
The immortals started closing in as the battle ended and saw the two people at once. They stood rooted in the air.
Master Immortal Yin Zheng and her disciple...
Shameless!
âYin Zheng!â
The immortal emperor was so angry his eyes turned red. He called her name, but couldnât say anything else.
Ming Shu patted Yu Hui and signaled for him to let her go. Yu Hui was obedient this time and retreated to her side quietly, standing right next to her.
Ming Shuâs lips were slightly red like the peach blossoms in spring. It looked seductive.
âYou, you...â The immortal emperor was incoherent with anger. âLook at you. He is your disciple! What are you doing with him!
âDo you think that this is the time to talk about this?â Ming Shu raised her eyebrows and smiled.
Everyone looked at the Kirin who wasnât moving anymore and the sky palace which was almost burned down.
There were too many pieces of evidence. They didnât know where to start.
Is the Kirin dead?
Of course it wasnât. However, it was lying limp on the ground and seemed to be dying.
The immortal emperor took two deep breaths and calmed down. âYin Zheng, what happened to this Kirin. Why did it become like this?â
âI donât know, maybe it mutated.â Ming Shu took out her snacks and ate them. She was really hungry now. âWhy donât you ask it? It can talk.â
The Kirin breathed through its nose. It didnât want to talk to this bunch of stupid immortals.
âIt is looking down on you all,â Ming Shu explained and smiled sweetly as she suggested, âWhy donât you all kill it?â
The Kirin stomped its paws on the ground to show its anger and rejection.
âThe Kirin is full of a demon aura. It is not safe to leave it here. Letâs bring it back and lock it up to investigate.â
âYes, this seems to be the only way now.â
Ming Shu kicked the Kirin. âHey, are you not going to run away?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYin Zheng, what the hell do you want!â If it wasnât for his status as the immortal emperor, he would have cursed at her now. She persuads us to kill the Kirin at first and now, she is urging it to run away. Why doesnât she go to heaven!
Ming Shu shrugged and stuffed her mouth with a snack. Her cheeks were full of food. Her voice became more pleasant to the ear. âNothing much. I just want to make you all angry.â
Are you angry?
Thatâs right, be angry!
The immortals stared at Ming Shu angrily. Her smile seemed to emphasize how pitiful they looked now.
The Kirin didnât care about their grudges and roared at her fiercely. However, its vigor was faded now and it seemed to be whining rather than roaring. After roaring, the Kirin remembered what happened just now and shrunk its head in fear, struggling to get up.
âWait.â
The Kirin looked over. What do you want!
âWhy did you attack him?â
The Kirin looked at Yu Hui with red eyes. A tinge of greediness flashed past its eyes and it said something to Ming Shu. Then, flames flashed on its paws again and it ran toward the Ninth Mountain. The immortal army at the side became a mess.
âWhat did it say?â Yu Hui couldnât help it and asked Ming Shu.
Ming Shu smiled. Her voice was calm and happy. âIt said that you look delicious.â
Yu Hui: â...â I am not an object. How am I delicious!?
She must be lying to me.
Ming Shu was not lying to him. Maybe, some people... are just delicious.
However, to her, snacks were more delicious.
âCongratulations.â Ming Shu patted Yu Huiâs shoulder and teased him, âYou have some value.â
Congratulations for what?
What is there to congratulate me about!
F**k, I am not edible.
Also, I am very valuable. Canât you say something good!
âImmortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor, oh no! The demons are attacking us!â
A scream rang across the air.
