Chapter 1149: 1149
As soon as Long Feiye sensed something amiss about their surroundings, Han Yunxi activated her poison storage space to absorb back the nine poison teardrops . However, it didn’t work . The nine poison teardrops seemed to be held in place by a strange power, resisting her pull .
What’s going on?
Is it Bai Yanqing?
Han Yunxi looked at the man, only to see him scanning his surroundings looking equally surprised .
If it’s not Bai Yanqing, who else could it be? Another orphan of the Poison Sect? Gu Qishao and Gu Beiyue were guarded as well .
Bai Yanqing was truly surprised . When Han Yunxi had taken out the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, he had secretly tried to absorb the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion into his poison storage space, but failed . Every level of the poison storage space had varying levels . It was very clear that Han Yunxi was stronger than him at level three .
But if it’s not him, who is it?
“Get them back,” Long Feiye muttered as he flew into the air with Han Yunxi . But in that second, the nine teardrops scattered at the same time a group of black-robed figures appeared around them .
This…
Long Feiye and Han Yunxi were alarmed as they landed once more . Gu Beiyue quickly moved to stand by their side .
“Are these real people, or just illusions?” Gu Beiyue muttered under his breath .
This was a sealed dimension, but none of them were familiar with the technique . It was even rarer to see it in practice, so that made it hard to distinguish fakes from reality .
“Who are you people?” Han Yunxi asked .
The figures around them made no sound . Unexpectedly, Lil Thing scampered to Gu Beiyue’s shoulders and started to jump around while making cheeping noises nonstop . After Han Yunxi took its poison blood, its cultivation was shot . Once again, it was reduced to a squirrel who couldn’t communicate telepathically with Mama Yunxi .
Han Yunxi couldn’t understand Lil Thing, but she was certain it recognized these people .
Could there still be Poison Sect orphans guarding the snow wolf cemetery? Was my mother’s savio one of them?
“Are you guardians of the snow wolves’ graves? I’m a descendant of the Poison Sect and have no ill will towards this place,” Han Yuxi declared . Perhaps they could break through this dimension .
Yet the black-robed figures didn’t reply beyond bowing their heads . What did that mean?
“Cheep cheep…cheep…” Abruptly, Lil Thing’s cries grew shrill . It was hard to tell whether it was excited or afraid . All it did was grab a pawful of Gu Beiyue’s hair and make a racket .
“The real master is here!” Long Feiye exclaimed as he suddenly took to the skies . Very soon, a middle-aged man dressed in white robes flew into the scene . For a moment, he seemed to be as distant as the snow mountain, but in the next second he was already in front of them .
In one hand he held the nine poison teardrops while the other rested behind his back . [1] He floated in mid-air like some sort of god observing the populace below . Despite his age, his face was free of wrinkles . At most there were a few age spots dotting his arms, but that didn’t affect his good looks . His features were chiseled and fair, making for an indescribably handsome face . The aura emanating from his dark pupils carried the cool indifference of someone apart from the mortal coil, an icy aloofness that cast a thousand li distance between him and the rest of the world .
He was like a dominant deity exuding a solemn, majestic air . No one was able to provoke him . The sight of him floored the group . Even Long Feiye felt a sense of reverence rising in his heart . But he didn’t retreat and pointed his sword at the man, coldly demanding, “Who are you?”
The white-robed man’s gaze didn’t waver as he slowly lifted the hand behind his back . It was so slow that it resembled tai chi, but the needles that flew out of his sleeve were extremely fast . They far exceeded Han Yunxi’s needles at top speeds!
Long Feiye didn’t dodge, but deflected the barbs with his blade . One strike was enough to send all the needles falling . Gu Beiyue glanced at them and cried in surprise, “It’s Xuan gold!”
That was the rarest material in this world . Besides two or three locations in the Poison Sect, one could barely find the mineral anywhere else . But this man’s hidden needles were made of Xuan gold!
The white-robed man was rather surprised that Long Feiye blocked his attack, but his expression didn’t change much . He only gave Long Feiye a penetrating look before his five fingers suddenly clenched .
Countless needles flew out–three to four times as much–all headed for Long Feiye .
“Careful, they’re poisoned!” Han Yunxi shouted .
Long Feiye was forced to dodge while wielding his sword . Han Yunxi knitted her brows and tried to take the needles into her poison storage space, but failed!
While Long Feiye was still blocking the needles, the white-robed man shot out another round! Han Yunxi panicked . The detox system told her that these weapons were coated in a frightening poison . Even if she could detect it, she couldn’t cure it! As long as Long Feiye was a little careless, he’d die for certain!
“Just who are you people? What do you want?!” Han Yunxi screamed .
The white-robed man ignored her . Han Yunxi began to wonder whether his poison storage space was at an even higher level than hers? Is that why I can’t absorb his poisons? She refused to believe it and took to the skies . She wanted to test what would happen if she put herself in the line of fire . Bai Yanqing had been at a higher level than her, but facing him head-on had allowed her to take in his poisons all the same . She could use the capabilities of the second level to face off with a high level three .
Han Yunxi flew to Long Feiye and hugged him, allowing all of the attacking needles to vanish in thin air into her poison storage space .
She rejoiced . “I guessed right!”
The white-robed man stopped and gave her a careful look before finally deigning to speak . “Smart,” he observed .
“Who are you? We have no grudge, so why are you attacking us?” Han Yunxi asked quickly .
The white-robed man didn’t speak beyond waving his hand . His casual motion was filled with enough strength to send Han Yunxi flying .
“You’re courting death!” Long Feiye hissed . He was about to chase after Han Yunxi when he ran into an invisible wall . When he pressed his hand against it, he found a solid obstruction that was impossible to move .
Another sealed dimension?
“It’s the sealing dimension arts!” Gu Beiyue exclaimed . He had already caught Han Yunxi before she fell .
“Just who are you people?!” Han Yunxi shouted .
But the white-robed man continued to ignore them . Han Yunxi and Gu Beiyue tried to approach Long Feiye, but were blocked off by the same invisible wall . She unsheathed the Moye sword and unleashed her Phoenix energy, but none of her slashes had any effect .
“Princess, don’t affect your womb!” Gu Beiyue stopped her anxiously .
Long Feiye looked at Han Yunxi with a nod . Lil Thing was even more excited after seeing the white-obed man and simply jumped on Gu Beiyue’s shoulder while gesturing wildly towards Han Yunxi . At last, Han Yunxi noticed it and asked, “Do you know him?”
Lil Thing nodded and cheeped out a whole bunch of nonsense to Han Yunxi and Gu Beiyue’s ears .
Lil Thing wanted to tell Mama Yunxi that this white-robed man was without a doubt, her real father! He was the pure-blooded Snow Wolf Clan member it’d met in the past . It’d wanted to submit to the man, but was rejected . Then the man vanished into the woods, making it impossible for it to find him . Although he was no longer young, his looks hadn’t changed much, nor would his blood .
It’s him alright! After recalling all its memories, Lil Thing now understood why it liked Mama Yunxi so much . It was because she had the pure blood of the Snow Wolf Clan as well . That old thing Bai Yanqing wasn’t Mama Yunxi’s father, but this man was!
“Princess, that man is different a level about you and His Highness . It’s better to see what he wants to do,” Gu Beiyue murmured .
Han Yunxi had no other choice, so she shouted at Long Feiye, “You have to be careful, even I can’t cure the poison on those needles!”
“Understood,” Long Feiye’s guarded gaze didn’t waver from the white-robed man .
As expected, the white-robed man shot out another round of needles that covered the entire air . They rained down densely, making it impossible to dodge . Instead of waving his sword, Long Feiye raised Ganjiang up high and gave an explosive release of Lustbite energy . All of the needles were scattered to the four winds, some falling on the ground, some shooting back at the white-robed man . He remained unaffected, floating in mid-air . Even when the needles were about to pierce him, he didn’t budge . Instead, all of the needles vanished as soon as they touched his body, absorbed into his poison storage space .
Seeing this, Han Yunxi and the rest exhaled . However, the white-robed man suddenly flew at Long Feiye and began to fight him bare-fisted . The two men’s punches slammed together, knocking each other back . It wasn’t clear who had the stronger punch, but the white-robed man was also sent back a few steps .
Long Feiye’s lips curled into a smirk . “You’re rather the gentleman . ”
If the white-robed man had used poison on him in such close proximity, he would have died for sure . But he had simply come for a fist fight . Long Feiye enjoyed such bouts!
The white-robed man remained silent, his chilly expression making him unreadable . Long Feiye finally found someone more taciturn and blank-faced than himself . Whether or not this man was friend or foe, he still admired him .
Long Feiye placed Ganjiang back on his back . Seeing this, the white robed man drew closer and they began to fight in earnest . Neither side pulled their punches, alternating between attacking and blocking . A few rounds later, they were still at a stalemate .
