Chapter 91 I Killed the Goddess of the Moon

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The floating beast souls penetrated through Xu Linghe’s body, as if they were peeping him. Wuyou dispersed her divine consciousness to look for Granny Moon. Looking at the thin little woman, Xu Linghe could do nothing but just accompany her. After all, Granny Moon had died. What would the little woman do if she knew it? Xu Linghe did not want his little woman to be sad, so he just pretended to believe that Granny Moon was alive, considering it as a hope cherished in the little woman’s heart. Perhaps time would ease everything.

“Linghe, will granny die? Why can’t I detect her aura?”

“No. Blessed are the good men. Besides, Granny Moon is so kind that the Heaven will not let her go early.”

Xu Linghe turn his back, unwilling to let the woman find something strange on him. The two moved forward cautiously. Floating light on the damp rock walls was flowing. Xu Linghe stopped.

“This rock wall is very strange.”

“Why can’t I see it?”

“Well, you don’t understand it. The rock wall has a history of tens of thousands of years, but why does it not grow moss though it is so moist?”

“Is it because it usually opens all the year? Right?”

“My wife is so smart. Come on… Let me give you a kiss.”

Wuyou jerked the corner of her mouth stiffly, finding that Ying Fu had led her husband astray. But she did not know Xu Linghe just wanted her to be happier. When they met again, Xu Linghe cherished Wuyou more, since she was his heart, and he would make her happy, whatever the cost might be.

“Away from the rock wall. Let me see how to open it.”

Xu Linghe condensed his Spirit Power and thrust out. To his surprise, the Spirit Power was taken in by the wall. When it calmed down, he gave another thrust, and his Spirit Power was absorbed again. Taking a closer look at the wall, they found a trace of Spiritual Qi slipped unwarily from the breach of rock wall. There were some characters of the Immense Sea on the wall. Wuyou’s slim fingers touched them, and suddenly there was something unusual on the wall. Blood began flowing in the characters. Perhaps the wall sensed the vital force of the Heavenly Book inside Wuyou’s body, so it became as thin as a cicada’s wings. When the floating light disappeared, Wuyou held her husband to penetrate through the wall. As they entered the wall, Wuyou looked around. Although she had seen many cave, she had never seen such a large one. It was ghastly to hear the echo in an empty place. Both of them moved ahead with caution, because any sound would disturb the souls in the cave. The floating Spirit Power followed them closely. When Wuyou stopped, the Spiritual Qi clang to the wall. Xu Linghe flicked his Spirit Power to tear up the Spirit Power on the wall.

“Zhu Jiuyin, you want to torment me again today…”

“Great Grandmaster, I can find you finally…”

Xu Linghe sank to his knees for Grandmaster… for Kunlun… for all common people under the heaven. When seeing the figure mentioned in the ancient manuscripts, Wuyou also knelt her knees by following her husband. When Black Emperor figured out what had happened, his face brightened into a smile. Apparently, his disciples never forgot him.

“Great Grandmaster, Grandmaster has never forgotten you. During the years you’re absent, Grandmaster chooses several days to go to Cuihua Mountain every year to infuse fresh water into your lotus pool and repair the fence for you.”

Black Emperor knew exactly that Shenzong was dutiful and obedient, but he still could not help but shed tears. The saddest person who grieved over Black Emperor’s death was his disciple, and Black Emperor himself knew well how it tasted. Xu Linghe wanted to unseal for Black Emperor, but his Spirit Power was ineffective to the seal. This Pangu Incantation was inextricable to Xu Linghe, but only Zhu Jiuyin could undo it. So Black Emperor asked Xu Linghe to leave as soon as possible. In the Pangu’s forbidden area, Wuyou sensed the area’s impact on herself.

“Linghe, let me have a try.”

Wuyou’s hands gestured. When her Spirit Power emerged, Black Emperor watched out everything out of the tail of his eyes, and found that the little woman had not only inherited the power of the Heavenly Book, but also possessed the Ancient Spirit that he had presented to his second disciple. When Wuyou removed the seal, a string of spells swirled around Black Emperor. Then, the spells paled and disappeared among fingers. Black Emperor rushed out of the rock wall and took a deep breath. Perhaps because he had been constrained for a long time, his essential spirit was also eager for freedom. Xu Linghe followed him out while Wuyou looked around for Granny Moon, since she would never abandon Granny Moon. When out of the wall, Xu Linghe did not find the little woman, so he returned to the wall immediately.

“Linghe, there is no Granny Moon… no… no!”

When the little woman sobbed out the words, Xu Linghe held her in the arms tightly, desperately hoping that Granny Moon could come back to life so that his little woman could be dragged back from despair. However, Granny Moon had died, and she would never come back. Xu Linghe lifted up the little woman, ready to fly out of the wall. But the entrance was being blocked by the bloody army. Xu Linghe fought his way out and did not remember Black Emperor until he had traversed the wall. And Wuyou followed him closely all the way.

“Great Grandmaster.”

Black Emperor fell from the rock wall. Wuyou set a defensive cover to ward off the bloody army of the Immense Sea. Zhu Jiuyin sealed up the entrance, but how could he stop Wuyou? Wuyou spread out her Spirit Power, and the airflow around her whole body began diffusing in all directions. When the airflow turned into a bigger one, its strong rush of air knocked off the bloody army. Little Lingchong flew to them, attempting to help its master to find Zhu Jiuyin, so it suspended over the bloody army. When smelling something different, it took a bite of that person’s head. Then, the person’s army cap dropped, and Wuyou could find that he was Zhu Jiuyin. Xu Linghe held the Flowing Light and smashed all the way. Those soldiers of the bloody army scattered away at the sight of Flowing Light. Zhu Jiuyin flew on-head. Wuyou, bathed in fierce and stern aura, chopped towards him, but Zhu Jiuyin dodged it with ease. Black Emperor floated over the bloody army, while his Original Spirit fought against Zhu Jiuyin. In fact, Zhu Jiuyin had foreseen that things would go like that. The woman had the power of the Heavenly Book, so she could crack down Zhu family’s seal quite easily. But although Zhu Jiuyin was fully aware that he was unable to stop the woman, he still came to Si Shui. Confronted with a advanced spirit cultivator, the bloody army collapsed at the first blow. Xu Linghe only wanted to leave there as soon as possible, so he condensed his Spirit Power and took the zither out from the Heaven and Earth Pouch. His spiritual fingers plucked the strings. The moment it rang, a large number of bloody soldiers covered their heads and fell to the ground, groaning. Xu Linghe held Wuyou’s hand and flew away, followed by Black Emperor closely, since freedom was as precious as oxygen for him. Zhu Jiuyin barred their way. Wuyou flicked her fingers, and then Pangu’s brand was set on Zhu Jiuyin. Wuyou stepped to him calmly. Watching the woman’s mighty power, the blood army flooded back.

“Do you want to know the whereabouts of Granny?”

“Shut up! Are you qualified to call her like that?”

“The whereabouts of the Goddess of the Moon, I know.”

Zhu Jiuyin’s eyes darkened. The woman’s averseness to him irriated him more than her hatred. They used to be happy with each other and to become a family. But in the end, they had to stand opposite to each other. Zhu Jiuyin still remember what the woman looked like in the desert. He asked himself, If he had been given a second choice, would he become Nie Xiaowu? Well, the answer was “no”. He could be nobody but the Family Head of the Immense Sea. They were fated not to be familiy members, but enemies. Zhu Jiuyin clenched his fists, blood oozing through his fingers.

“I killed the Goddess of the Moon.”

His voices echoed in the empty place. Zhu Jiuyin’s fingure blurred and disappeared in the end. At that moment, Wuyou felt her eyes were buzzing and did not understand what Zhu Jiuyin had said until she came to herself.

“Granny is dead… I didn’t get it wrong…”

Tears blurred her eyes. Xu Linghe wanted to comfort her, but she stood aside. Black Emperor could not tolerate to see it any longer. In fact, Chang Xi’s life and death were destined by the Heaven. The woman was still tangled with life and death. Better a finger off as aye wagging.

“She is really dead. I saw it with my own eyes.”

Wuyou staggered in a trance. With only a few steps, she fell full length to the ground. In front of Black Emperor, Xu Linghe did not dare to get angry… His heart ached for the little woman, but he was unable to do anything else. She had to face it sooner or later. So he only hoped the little woman to get it over. Seeing the master faint, Little Lingchong flew at her. Xu Linghe held the woman up in the arms and flew in the direction of Kunlun.

A shadow in the corner watched silently and did not leave unitl Xu Linghe had gone far away. Zhu Yan wondered who the shadow was.

Zhu Jiuyin came back to the Immense Sea, but had the hump in his heart. To get the Heavenly Book, he had to form an alliance, including the Immense Sea, Mount Da Huang and the Ninth-level Heaven. Daunting as it appeared on the surface, Zhu Jiuyin himself had less right to speak. Now it was Emperor Jun who got the final say. Since Zhu Jiuyin was Pangu’s descendant, how could he stand it? More to his anger, Feng Xi who Zhu Jiuyin had trusted a lot was a finger man of Emperor Jun. The more Zhu Jiuyin thought, the angrier he grew.

“Xueyi, refill it.” Zhu Jiuyin leaned against the soft couch. Perhaps he got drunk on purpose. The wine sprayed all over the floor, and Yuan Xueyi cleaned up with her handkerchief.

“Master, drinking too much is harmful to your health.”

“You such a servant! How dare you to discipline your master.”

“When do I become your servant?” Yuan Xueyi suddenly began bothering herself with the class difference between master and servant. She used to address him the Master respectfully everyday, but now the title almost killed her. Perhaps she was slightly dastard when faced with the person she loved. Zhu Jiuyin totally ingored such behaviors and just drank the wine solitarily. A man dressed in plain clothes walked toward the gate of the palace. Seeing Feng Xi coming, Yuan Xueyi regarded him as her savior.

“Let me do it!” Feng Xi filled up a cup of wine for himself and drank it all. He knew that Zhu Jiuyin was blaming him, but what should he do? They were serving different Masters, and Feng Xi’s Master was Emperor Jun. Even if Feng Xi was valued as a royal grandson, he did not dare to presume too far.

“I am not blaming you. But there is a hurdle. I will be fine as long as I cross it.” Zhu Jiuyin patted on his chest heavily. Water and wine on the table went everywhere, and then came the crash of things.

“You took Feng Xi as your brother, but I used you… I am so sorry.”

Feng Xi drank three cups of wine in succession. Not until he got tipsy did Zhu Jiuyin cool down.

“Forget it. Don’t toss yourself. You have little capacity for liquor. How can you be others’ brother? I am not be so petty.”

Zhu Jiuyin took up the cup and filled it up again, feeling no regret to have wine and the friend besides. Feng Xi raised the wine cup. At that moment, there was no scheme or intrigue, but only brotherhood between them. Well, there were many emotions except love through the life, such as family affection and friendship. Even if the woman hated him, he still had brothers. Zhu Jiuyin and Feng Xi were beastly drunken, and wine pots tumbled onto the floor everywhere. Yuan Xueyi did not enter the room until there was a silence inside. She cleaned up carefully.

“Xiaodie, make up a guest room for Young Master Feng.”

The home servant named Xiaodie carried Feng Xi on the back. Yuan Xueyi stepped after them out of the room, afraid of not being mindful of the guest. As the Head’s brother, Young Master Feng deserved more considerate treatment. When Yuan Xueyi returned, she could not find Zhu Jiuyin. And she searched everywhere, but the Master seemed to disappear into thin air. Since the Master’s Spirit Power was strong, he would not get into any trouble or accident. Yuan Xueyi spread her Spirit Power to look for Zhu Jiuyin’s aura. When searching a house, Yuan Xueyi understood completely that in Master’s heart, he was still unwilling to let go of the woman. The door of the courtyard was open. Yuan Xueyi entered it quietly. Viewed far away, a fingure was relected on the paper window of the little tower, but the person did not move at all, just like a sculpture standing in the light. Yue Xueyi flew up. Although she knew that she would feel heart-broken, she still wanted to see Zhu Jiuyin, so her little finger lightly ripped off the paper window.

“Who?”

The people in the house were very alert. Zhu Jiuyin did not relax herself until Yuan Xueyi entered the room.

“Master, why are you here? It took me great effort to find you.”

Yuan Xueyi broke the embarrassment. No one liked being peeked. So Zhu Jiuyin was rather displeased, thinking that Yuan Xuyi, such a mischief-maker, could never allow others to relax and be quite. He just wanted to find a tranquil place, but she could still find it. But he did not know that a womon only chattered to the person she loved. If she did not love you, she would rather take a good sleep regardless of the standing as a master of the Immense Sea or not. Yuan Xueyi was worried about Zhu Jiuyin, but he knew nothing of it. Seeing Zhu Jiuyin holding the bedding and smirking, Yuan Xueyi was burnt with anger, so she called the Flame Spirit. The Flame Spirit floated over the head. Yuan Xueyi gave a kick to the Flame Spirit, and she lifted up Zhu Jiuyin to fly out of the courtyard. Next second, the whole courtyard was reduced to ashes.
