Creak…
The door of the Scripture Repository was pushed open. Su Qingqiu, carrying the weak Lian Yue on her back, walked slowly towards the direction of the Imperial Dao.
“Qingqiu, I’m begging you, let me go back.”
“You and the master should leave quickly. Maybe there’s still time. No one can save me, but I… I don’t want to drag you down.”
By the end, Lian Yue’s voice was choked with sobs, and large teardrops fell onto Su Qingqiu’s shoulder, soaking her white silk shirt.
Su Qingqiu said nothing, silently moving forward.
She could already sense Wu Die’s presence. Wu Die was fighting fiercely, facing countless enemies.
Moments later.
Su Qingqiu paused, holding Lian Yue, who was lying on her back, with one hand and gently patting her crying head with the other. She softly said:
“Look, that’s another maid by the master’s side. You haven’t met her. Her name is Wu Die. She entered the palace a few days ago and has faced numerous dangers. Despite being only at the half-step Moon Shine Realm, she has been fighting against several Great Beings of the Moon Shine Realm and countless soldiers, and even the entire nation’s oppression. She’s still resisting tenaciously.”
Lian Yue looked over with tearful eyes.
She saw a bewitching woman in a black robe, moving like a ghost among thousands of soldiers, facing the thunderous attacks of two Great Beings of the Moon Shine Realm. She was retreating step by step but continued to resist.
“So, don’t give up easily. Let’s get out of here together, okay?” Su Qingqiu gently comforted.
Lian Yue was stunned for a moment, her emotions collapsing further, and she cried out:
“I’m begging you, leave me alone! Go!”
Su Qingqiu couldn’t maintain her composure any longer. Her deep expression broke instantly, like a deflated balloon, and she wore a bitter face.
As expected.
This job is really too hard for me!
I can’t even comfort myself, how can I comfort someone in despair?
“Hey, are you done chatting? Find a way to break the palace’s restriction and take Lian Yue away. I’m buying you time here!” Wu Die’s untimely voice rang out.
What a melodramatic scene, in the midst of a great battle, one is crying like a pear blossom in the rain, and the other is pretending to be an emotional master.
Can’t you see someone is fighting desperately for you? Is this appropriate, kids?
“Go?” The head of the Dali Temple glanced at the two figures on the side, his eyes instantly turning cold, knowing that the maid from the Scripture Repository had been rescued.
In that case, these three must die no matter what!
“Old Ji, go all out, take down this demon girl as quickly as possible!” The head of the Dali Temple shouted.
The County Magistrate of the capital’s government offices smiled slightly, his aura surging: “I’ve been waiting for you to say that.”
The two’s auras soared, their fists and feet sweeping through the air like a primordial beast breaking free from its cage.
With just one exchange, Wu Die was forced to cough up blood and retreat a thousand meters, crashing into the palace’s restriction.
“Today, no one will leave! I will offer you to the Arhats of the Buddhist Kingdom, so you can enjoy endless bliss.” The head of the Dali Temple sneered coldly, stepping closer to the fallen Wu Die.
Su Qingqiu, carrying Lian Yue, silently walked to Wu Die’s side, helping her up. The three women were in extremely poor condition, barely able to stand.
However, except for Lian Yue, the other two showed no fear, instead exchanging a smile.
“You really are a pig teammate.” Wu Die poked Su Qingqiu’s white forehead, laughing and scolding.
Su Qingqiu pouted, dissatisfied: “What could I do? The palace’s restriction can’t be broken by someone at the Morning Glow Realm. We’re trapped here. Rescuing Lian Yue already completes the task.”
Wu Die laughed silently, showing no anger, and said: “Didn’t you think to help? Didn’t you see I was being besieged?”
The two chatted as if no one else was around, making the head of the Dali Temple particularly puzzled, feeling a sense of foreboding.
Confident and fearless, could they really have reinforcements?!
“Old Ji, take them down immediately! There might be unexpected changes!!” The head of the Dali Temple shouted.
At this moment.
Wu Die, exhausted, called out sweetly in a certain direction:
“Master, if you don’t act now, your two maids will be beaten to death.”
“Then there will be no one to wash your clothes, cook your meals, or serve you tea.”
The head of the Dali Temple’s sense of foreboding turned into a full-blown alarm at these words, feeling as if thousands of silver needles were piercing his body. An inexplicable fear surged in his heart. Without any hesitation, he lunged forward, intending to capture the two women.
Following closely was the County Magistrate of the capital’s government offices, along with thousands of soldiers, forming a deadly encirclement.
Seeing this, Lian Yue closed her eyes in pain, murmuring:
“Qingqiu, Wu Die…”
“I’m sorry, I dragged you down.”
Lian Yue’s heart was filled with regret, regretting leaving the Ancient Divine City, foolishly dreaming of becoming someone like the Space-Time Sword Saint.
If she had chosen to stay in the Divine City, she might have lived a mediocre life, but it would have been better than today’s outcome.
Not to mention dragging down the master’s two maids.
Lian Yue kept her eyes closed for over ten seconds, but the expected killing blow never came. Confused, she opened her eyes slightly to peek.
Gradually, a tall and straight figure came into view.
As her vision cleared, a long-lost sense of familiarity surged in her heart, and Lian Yue couldn’t help but widen her eyes, her breathing becoming rapid.
A young man in a black robe, blindfolded, stood with his hands behind his back. A gray-white field spread from his body, covering the entire palace, freezing the thousands of soldiers and the two Great Beings of the Moon Shine Realm in place.
The young man slightly turned his head, his voice carrying a hint of amusement:
“Not bad, barely passing.”
“Stronger than I expected, especially you, Qingqiu. At least you didn’t drag everyone down too much. As for Wu Die, she performed as usual.”
The two women still wore smiles, showing no surprise. Their eyes only held the young man.
Su Qingqiu’s smile stiffened, her mouth pouting in grievance: “What do you mean? In your expectations, I would drag everyone down and make Wu Die fail? Am I that useless?”
“It’s not that you’re useless, you’re just adorable and silly. It’s a strength. But this time, you didn’t act too silly, so there’s improvement.” The young man gave a thumbs up, not sparing his praise.
Su Qingqiu still felt aggrieved: “Is that a compliment? It sounds like an insult to me.”
Wu Die, on the other hand, clung to the young man’s arm, coquettishly saying: “Master, you have to stand up for me and Qingqiu. These people hit really hard, I even got internal injuries.”
Hearing this, the young man nodded slightly and then turned to face the front.
“Alright, the master will stand up for you.”
“Every single one of these people must die.”
