Nine Yang Sword Saint - Chapter 118

Chapter 118

Right now, there were 69 hours left before the duel with Qin Shaobai.

Soon enough, someone led Yang Dingtian to the bride's side. Yang Dingtian immediately caught a whiff of that familiar and alluring body fragrance.

Yang Dingtian had never encountered a place with such darkness where he truly couldn't see anything. He even couldn't see further than half an inch in front of him.

In an instant, Yang Dingtian's heart was overwhelmed with sympathy. Dugu Aoshuang was so self-abased that she even wanted her wedding ceremony to be held in the pitch-black darkness. She didn't dare to let anyone see her face.

"The time of blessing has arrived. Will the groom and bride please proceed with the wedding ceremony?"

Afterward, a red silk cloth was stuffed into Yang Dingtian's hand while the other end was placed in the Second Young Lady's, Dugu Aoshuang's hand.

Immediately after, a fragrance approached while an icy-cold and extremely moving voice echoed.

"Remember, treat my sister well. When the sun rises tomorrow and my sister is smiling, you may continue to live. If she isn't smiling, then you are dead."

Finishing her threat, the Devil Woman, Dugu Fengwu, moved back, leaving behind a lingering aroma and a threat that had an icy-cold killing aura.

"First bow to the heaven and earth!"

Afterward, while his heart was still in a confused state, Yang Dingtian and the Temple of Blood's Second Young Lady, Dugu Aoshuang, worshipped the heaven and earth.

"Second bow to the main hall!"

(TL note: Main Hall, in this case, refers to the parents)

"Mutual bow!"

"Deliver into the bridal room!"

…

Just like that, Yang Dingtian finished the wedding ceremony and was sent into the bridal room.

From start to finish, it took less than three minutes. Yang Dingtian didn't even get to see the relatives and guests.

The bridal room was very far. The Temple of Blood was at the front of the giant stone mountain, while Dugu Aoshuang's bridal room was at the back of the mountain. In the entire back of the massive mountain, Dugu Aoshuang was the only person residing there. At this moment, Yang Dingtian felt even more pitiful towards Shuang'er.

There was no one to disturb the privacy of the bridal room. In this massive back of the mountain, there were only Yang Dingtian and Dugu Aoshuang. It was several kilometers away from the Temple of Blood.

(TL note: On the night of the wedding, guests would normally play pranks on the newlyweds)

Within the bridal room, it was still pitch-black. Yang Dingtian couldn't see his fingers.

Were they going to spend the bridal room night in darkness?

"You should have heard of my reputation as the female yaksha right?" Dugu Aoshuang suddenly spoke coldly, "But don't think that by marrying me, you are doing me a great favor."

The voice was very familiar to Shuang'er's voice when Yang Dingtian had met her. Right now, her voice was icy-cold and didn't sound gentle at all.

Yang Dingtian couldn't help but be surprised as he didn't understand what Dugu Aoshuang meant.

"Dugu Fengwu feels that she owes me something. Hence, she wanted me to be married off and be a bride before I die. In order to not let her feel that she owes me anything, I decided to accept her goodwill." Dugu Aoshuang said, "But if you dare to touch me, I will let you die without a burial site. Because my heart already belongs to someone. Even if I will never marry him, I am unwilling to let other men touch me."

Yang Dingtian replied with a gentle voice, "Don't worry, I will not touch you."

"Ah…" Once Yang Dingtian's voice sounded, Dugu Aoshuang gasped and spoke in disbelief, "Big Brother Yan, it's you…"

Her voice was filled with pleasant surprise.

"Yes, it's me…," Yang Dingtian responded.

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian felt a warmth as a soft and tender body jumped into his embrace.

"Big Brother Yan, why is it you? Why are you here? I, I am not dreaming, right?" Dugu Aoshuang was trembling.

Yang Dingtian was stunned as he asked, "You didn't know that you were marrying me?"

"I, I didn't know." Dugu Aoshuang said, "Dugu Fengwu didn't inform me. She just said she will bring me a husband. Big Brother Yan, why are you here? I am really not dreaming, right?"

Dugu Aoshuang was still slightly trembling in his embrace.

But her excitement quickly faded as she went silent for a moment before she spoke with a sad voice, "Big Brother Yan. My elder sister caught you and forced you to marry me, right?"

Yang Dingtian didn't deny it.

"Actually, you are unwilling to marry me and don't like me in your heart, right?" Dugu Aoshuang's voice shivered as she spoke, "That's right, who would like a girl who has scales all over her body?"

When she finally reached this topic, Dugu Aoshuang's originally burning hot body gradually turned ice-cold.

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and spoke with a gentle voice, "Shuang'er. Can I call you this?"

"Yes. I like it when you call me this way," Dugu Aoshuang replied.

"I like you a lot. You have a provocative figure, and you are a girl who is kind and pure at heart. I like you very much," Yang Dingtian confessed.

Dugu Aoshuang seemed to regain some of her liveliness and said, "Then, then you are willing to marry me?"

Yang Dingtian didn't speak for a very long time. Even in darkness, he could still see Shuang'er eyes that were filled with hope. Her eyes were truly too charming and beautiful.

"I would like to say that I am willing to marry you, Shuang'er. Despite the fact that it would be a blessing for me to marry a girl like you, I already have a wife," Yang Dingtian explained slowly.

In this instant, Yang Dingtian felt a warm sensation on his palm. It was Dugu Aoshuang's tears.

Yang Dingtian's heart went soft for a moment before he continued talking, "Moreover, I am here at the Temple of Blood with an objective that I shouldn't declare."

"What objective, Big Brother Yan?" Dugu Aoshuang asked. Despite the fact that Yang Dingtian explained his identity, Dugu Aoshuang still called him Big Brother Yan.

"Entering the Blood Pool to cultivate. Diligently break through. Then, return to Cloud Heaven City to rescue my wife," Yang Dingtian explained.

After staying silent for a moment, Dugu Aoshuang raised her head and asked, "Big Brother Yan, can you tell me about her situation? What happened to her?"

"Okay. Her name is Ximen Yanyan…," Yang Dingtian narrated.

Afterward, Yang Dingtian narrated the story about him and Yanyan until the incident where Yanyan was framed by Qin Shaobai for murder, where he was going to duel Qin Shaobai in three days. He told everything to Dugu Aoshuang.

After listening to everything, Dugu Aoshuang spoke in a soft voice, "Big Brother Yan, Ximen Yanyan is truly blessed. If I was like her, even if I have to die right now, I would be willing to."

Yang Dingtian said, "Shuang'er, even though no one can compare to Yanyan in my heart, I want to say that… in terms of looks, character, or figures, you are similar to her. You are both the most beautiful woman in this world."

After listening to Yang Dingtian's story, Dugu Aoshuang's beautiful eyes revealed this unbounded tender look as she spoke, "Big Brother Yan. Actually, you didn't have to tell me all this and just say that you are willing to marry me. Afterward, you can get me to help you enter the Blood Pool and cultivate. You know that I like you and I am willing to do anything for you."

Yang Dingtian smiled and said, "You are so adorable and pure. Who can bear to cheat you?"

After hearing Yang Dingtian's words, Dugu Aoshuang's beautiful eyes shone with even more joy and delight.

After pondering for a moment, Shuang'er proposed, "Big Brother Yan, is this okay? Yang Dingtian will belong to Ximen Yanyan, but Yan Nantian will belong to me, okay? Didn't you say that you didn't dislike my appearance and think that it is especially attractive? Then… then, tonight, we will be a real married couple, and we will have the most intimate relationship. Afterward, I will help you cultivate in the Blood Pool and help you escape from the Temple of Blood to let you go rescue Sister Yanyan, okay?"

Yang Dingtian got a shock. He really didn't expect that Dugu Aoshuang would make this proposal. For a moment, he didn't know how should he respond.

When Yang Dingtian didn't have any reaction, Dugu Aoshuang's delicate body shook as she asked, "Big Brother Yan, it is the truth when you say you didn't hate the scales on my body, right?"

In this instant, her voice was filled with terror. If Yang Dingtian told her lie that day, then there was truly no one else that wasn't afraid of her on sight. This would cause her to collapse, and the tiniest bit of faith she had would crumble.

"Of course." Yang Dingtian lowered his head and gave a light kiss on her forehead while saying, "You might not know this. When hugging your body, the fire in my heart is actually getting restless."

This was a question for all the men on Earth. If you were to hug the female mutant, Mystique, from "X-Men", would your heart feel restless? Furthermore, Dugu Aoshuang had a figure that was even sexier than hers.

"Then, why don't you agree? I am just asking you to be Yan Nantian for a single night and for you to be my husband for a single night. After tomorrow, you will be back to being Yang Dingtian." Dugu Aoshuang said, "I am about to die, but before I die, I truly want to give my body to the man I love. I don't want to die before I am a true woman. Moreover, you mentioned that you are not afraid of my appearance."

Yang Dingtian went silent before he replied, "Shuang'er. I am very tempted by your proposal, but I have to tell you a secret. I and my wife are mutually in love with each other and have been married for a few months, but we had yet to do the thing that married couples are supposed to do. Despite the case, we have done every other intimate thing."

"Ahh…" Dugu Aoshuang suddenly let out a gasp of disbelief.

"If I was to agree to have sexual relations with you. To be honest, I will enjoy it a lot and to say something unreasonable, I wouldn't feel any sense of self-blame. But it would be the most unfair thing to you." Yang Dingtian said, "I have this subtle feeling that the scales on your body will subside one day, and you will rise like a phoenix. You will become as beautiful as Dugu Fengwu and a woman who emits a radiance. By then, countless men would be crazy for you. Hence, if I take your body now, it would be such an irresponsible act."

"Really? Big Brother Yan, do you think the scales on my body will subside?" Dugu Aoshuang asked with a shivering voice.

"It is what I feel." Yang Dingtian said, "Once I leave the Temple of Blood, I will venture into the world to cultivate. By then, I will surely strive to find a method to help your scales subside. Of course, I wouldn't dare to say that I will be able to find that method, but no one should ever give up hope. And don't make such an important decision due to desperation, okay?"

Shuang'er said with a soft voice, "But, even if my scales subside in the future and even if I become a woman that is radiant, my heart will remain unchanged. I will still love you."

"If that is the case, then I will be the world's luckiest man." Yang Dingtian smiled and said, "Shuang'er, how much longer did they say you have to live?"

"Two years…," Dugu Aoshuang replied.

"I don't believe it. I believe without a doubt that you will continue to live on." Yang Dingtian said, "Shuang'er. You ask me to be your man tonight, I cannot do it. But I can promise you that if I cannot find a method to make your scales subside, I will come back to see you within two years. No matter how difficult it is, I will come and see you once."

"Really?" Shuang'er said with delight.

"Of course!" Yang Dingtian replied.

Shuang'er lowered her head and spoke in a soft voice, "Then, I have a request, Big Brother Yan."

"En." Yang Dingtian nodded.

"Kiss me once. Let me feel what is the feeling of love between a man and woman is like," Dugu Aoshuang said and lifted her head while gradually closing her eyes.

Yang Dingtian held her face, faced her lips, and gave a deep kiss.　　

It was after several minutes before their lips slowly separated.

Dugu Aoshuang's delicate body was on fire and felt weak in Yang Dingtian's embrace. Her beautiful eyes were in a daze, as though she was drunk from wine, as she panted loudly in the dark.

Her entire body was emitting a special fragrance that was intoxicating.

Afterward, Dugu Aoshuang left Yang Dingtian's embrace and said, "Alright then. Big Brother Yan, your time is very pressing. We need to immediately make a plan on how to let you enter the Blood Pool to cultivate."

"Thank you, Shuang'er. I truly want to thank you," Yang Dingtian said in a serious manner.

"Big Brother Yan, you gave me the courage to continue living. I am willing to do anything for you." Shuang'er said in a gentle voice, "The Blood Pool is a few thousand meters in the abdomen of the mountain. It is the most dangerous place in the entire Temple of Blood. Without the Ten Thousand Blood Token(Blood Token), anyone would die upon entry."

"Is the security around the Blood Pool very tight?" Yang Dingtian asked.

"There is no security. The stone doors are directly opened without any guards." Dugu Aoshuang said, "But there is a Fire Demon Violent Lion in there. It is a 500-year-old demonic beast. After absorbing a large amount of mystic qi that emanated from the Blood Pool, it is comparable to a Grandmaster Class expert. The entire Blood Pool is its territory, and without the Blood Token, the person who enters will be torn into pieces."

"Is that Blood Token in your father's hand?" Yang Dingtian asked.

"Yes. It is impossible for you to obtain the Blood Token from him. You will just attract his suspicion," Dugu Aoshuang advised.

Yang Dingtian's head felt numb. A Grandmaster Class demonic beast would probably be a headache for Dongfang Niemie. In addition, the demonic beast had an extreme possessiveness over its territory. Once he took half a step in, it would definitely fight to its last gasp. For martial artists like Yang Dingtian, even ten thousand of him would not be able to withstand a single claw from the Fire Demon Violent Lion.

"Is that Fire Demon Violent Lion a bit more intimate with any of the members in the Temple of Blood?" Yang Dingtian suddenly recalled the prodigy Beast Speaker, Ximen Ningning.

"There isn't." Dugu Aoshuang said, "It is filled with animosity towards the people of the Temple of Blood. And because it is absorbing the energy from the Blood Pool, it is getting impetuous. It always feels that the Temple of Blood is snatching its belongings. Hence, many of the disciples of the Temple of Blood are compelled by circumstances. Even if they have the Blood Token, they wouldn't dare to enter the Blood Pool. My father has already started to plan on how to kill this Fire Demon Violent Lion."

Without the Blood Token, this violent demonic beast wouldn't leave any room for negotiation. From the looks of it, it would be an extreme challenge to enter the Blood Pool. There might not be any possibility at all.

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian thought of an idea. He had a sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir, which had a fatal attraction to demonic beasts. What if Yang Dingtian fused Ningning and Ximen Wuya's blood into this Beast Soul Elixir and fed it to the Fire Demon Violent Lion?

Although the amount of the Deep Sea Mystic Poison and the Soul Devour Mystic Qi was very diffuse in the blood, when mixed together, the toxicity should still be astounding. As long as the Fire Demon Violent Lion consumes this Beast Soul Elixir, it would temporarily lose its attack capabilities.

Thus, Yang Dingtian explained his idea, but he didn't say that it was the Soul Devour Mystic Qi and the Deep Sea Mystic Poison. He just explained that it was a very mysterious and rare poison.

Dugu Aoshuang immediately shook her head and said, "It will not work. That Fire Demon Violent Lion only feeds on the energy of the Blood Pool and nothing else. Because if it ate anything else, it would cause huge damage to its mystic qi."

At this moment, Yang Dingtian was truly at his wit's end.

"You have a sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir?" Dugu Aoshuang suddenly asked.

Yang Dingtian nodded.

"There might be a method." Dugu Aoshuang said, "But there will still be a danger to your life. If there is even a slight mishap, you might be torn to pieces."

"What method?" Yang Dingtian asked.

"Follow me, Big Brother Yan," Dugu Aoshuang said and immediately ran out. Yang Dingtian followed closely behind.

Right now, it was very late into the night… Yang Dingtian walked out of the building that Dugu Aoshuang was residing in and saw a whole patch of darkness. The sky didn't have any stars and didn't have any moons. They should be there, but it was unknown why they couldn't be seen.

10,000 meters below was the majestic and boundless river.

This back of this Mt. Ten Thousand Blood was incomparably lonesome. It only had a long mountain path and the isolated little building that Dugu Aoshuang resided in. From this place, it could be seen how the entire Temple of Blood had rejected and dreaded Dugu Aoshuang.

The two of them followed the rope and descended almost one thousand meters, arriving at the entrance of a giant cave.

There was a stone tunnel inside that was over a dozen meters in height and width.

"Big Brother Yan, if you follow this tunnel and walk into the deepest area, you will arrive at your destination, the Blood Pool," Dugu Aoshuang explained.

Dugu Aoshuang then pointed to the river that was ten thousand meters below and said, "Big Brother Yan, in the river below, there lives a similarly formidable demonic beast. It might be slightly inferior to the Fire Demon Violent Lion, but it almost comparable and is the suzerain of the entire Rapture River."

"En, what else?" Yang Dingtian asked.

Dugu Aoshuang then said, "This Eight-Headed Demon Flood Dragon has a very deep hatred for the Fire Demon Violent Lion. Back then, these two demonic beasts had a big battle for the Blood Pool. The Eight-Headed Demon Flood Dragon lost and is residing in the river with its hatred, but it still yearns for the Blood Pool. We can use the Beast Soul Elixir to lure the Eight-Headed Demon Flood Dragon towards the vicinity of the Blood Pool. This way, the Fire Demon Violent Lion would assume that the flood dragon is here to snatch its territory. It will definitely lose all reason and rush out to kill it. Just like that, the two demonic beasts would be locked in mutual slaughter. You can make use of this opportunity to enter the Blood Pool and cultivate as quickly as possible."

Dugu Aoshuang then warned, "But Big Brother Yan, this method is still very, very dangerous. If there is any minor mishap, you will lose your life."

That's right, this plan was a very risky one.

Firstly, it was uncertain whether the Eight-Headed Demon Flood Dragon would be attracted by the sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir. Even if it was attracted, it might directly rush Yang Dingtian and the Beast Soul Elixir, eating them together. Furthermore, it was still uncertain if these two demonic beasts would try to kill each other.

Even if everyone went smoothly and Yang Dingtian managed to enter the depths of the Blood Pool to cultivate, when it was time for him to leave, the Fire Demon Violent Lion might have achieved victory and returned to the cave. If it noticed Yang Dingtian's presence, it would immediately rip him into pieces.

In short, if they followed this plan, Yang Dingtian would be in grave danger.

"There is no other way. Let's do it." Yang Dingtian gritted his teeth and made his decision.

Right now, there were still 65 hours before the duel with Qin Shaobai.
