Chapter 644: Wine and Affection
Translator: Cynthiia Editor: X, TYZ
Winners took all . This was always true . The difficulties and despair in the process would only be buried in one's memory, but even after a long time, they were still vivid in the mind . Hardships and despair would always bestow charm in victory, in the way that wine would bestow a mellow taste in life, making it enchanting and unforgettable .
It might be described later in historical records with only a few words . When future generations read it, they might simply ignore it or be carried far away by the fascinating experience .
In the foggy sword formation valley, light swords were flickering like stars in the sky . The valley was still tranquil, but the annular ridge around the valley was totally different . Bonfires were lit all over the ridge to light up the night . People were singing, dancing, and crying out joyfully in celebration could be seen everywhere, making the ridge very bustling .
Except for those on guard duty, everyone else came to the celebration .
Even the most solemn guys couldn't help smiling, not to mention those like Fatty who were always happy . Tonight, Fatty was laughing all the time, and others could scarcely see his eyes .
This was the most critical battle they endured through, during which the majority of the members were on the verge of collapse . Any failure would have lead to a total defeat .
They were lucky indeed, but the victory was more due to their unity . If it were not for [Breeze of Surveillance], or Duanmu Huanghun's [Viridescent Flower], or the Sword of Lightning, or the volleys of Beehive Heavy Cannons, or…
Without reservation, they made use of all the power they could think of, like a fully armed soldier using his teeth and nails in the end .
Lou Lan's eyes were like crescent moons when smiling . He wore an apron and walked back and forth in the campsite with a pot in one hand and a soup ladle in the other hand . Wherever he went, people around would cheer for him .
"Good job Lou Lan!"
"Lou Lan's final hit was fantastic!"
"I guess Helian Tianxiao died of anger!"
Lou Lan shared the soup with everyone happily .
"I have to say that our boss is too horrifying . The swords have come out even before he does . "
"I agree . I was scared to death and thought I would die there . It was all thanks to boss's swords!"
"Was anyone like me and thought it was raining then?"
"Me! I was totally dumbstruck!"
Hearing their admiration for Ai Hui, Lou Lan was even happier .
Shi Xueman sat on a rock with a bottle of wine in her hand . She stared at the foggy sword formations and took a sip . She never drank before, but somehow she very much wanted to drink today . Unconsciously, her cold face turned red . The smile on her pretty face made her look like a different person .
Sang Zhijun also came with a bottle of wine and shouted at a distance, "Xueman, Xueman!"
She just finished dancing with the others around the fire and still felt excited . Even her voice was much louder than usual . Shi Xueman turned her head and burst into laughter when she saw Sang Zhijun bouncing about . She had never seen Sang Zhijun like this before .
Sang Zhijun was apparently a little bit drunk . She jumped on the rock and sat down beside Shi Xueman casually . "Why not come and dance with us?"
Then, she glanced at the valley and smiled . As if she suddenly understood something, she asked, "Bad mood, huh? Because Ai Hui hasn't come out?"
"Yes," Shi Xueman replied and took another sip .
Sang Zhijun paused for a while, as she hadn't expected that Shi Xueman would admit it so readily . When she came back to her senses, she consoled Shi Xueman, "Relax . He will soon . "
When they mentioned Ai Hui, Sang Zhijun also became serious . Shi Xueman could see the veneration in her eyes . The scene earlier had greatly shocked and impacted her .
Shi Xueman smiled . She raised the wine bottle in her hand and drank a gulp of wine .
Sang Zhijun also took a long swig of wine . Then, she wiped the drops left on the corner of her mouth and said directly, "I know you are worried, Xueman, about others' opinions of him . "
The flowing light swords fell from the sky like a starry waterfall . It was extremely spectacular . They witnessed this awesome scene when they had just finished the front line battle .
What happened next was more horrible .
The corpses melted into the earth at a fast speed . The tens of thousands of light swords suddenly shined with dazzling rays, and the chime of swords could be heard all over the valley and lingered for six hours .
Even Helian Tianxiao and his mount could not prevent being devoured by the light swords .
Although they had seen the sword formation consume blood and flesh before, it was shocking to see the whole God Wolf Division being devoured . When they came back to the valley, they all gasped in astonishment after seeing the numerous bones of the dead in the sword formation .
It turned out that the Silver Frost Division also became nutrition for the sword formation .
In terms of the amount of blood and flesh that had been devoured by the sword formation, maybe only the devils in the ancient legends could match him . In comparison, the blood refinement of the Beast Venom Temple was not worth mentioning .
They were both grateful and frightened .
It was so shocking .
Shi Xueman fell into silence as if she was tasting the wine in her mouth .
Sang Zhijun's face blushed scarlet, but her eyes were clear . "We are not afraid at all, even if Ai Hui really becomes a blood elementalist . "
They had all witnessed Ai Hui's hatred toward the Blood of God .
Even if he became a blood elementalist, they were not worried because they believed Ai Hui would be the blood elementalist who would destroy the Blood of God . In contrast, they were more concerned about whether Ai Hui could accept his identity as a blood elementalist and if he would even want to kill himself .
Sometimes, Ai Hui was afraid of death, but sometimes, he was frighteningly at ease in the face of death .
"We've known each other ever since we were in Central Pine City and have been fighting side by side for years . No one remembers how many times he has saved us . " Sang Zhijun turned her head and looked Shi Xueman in her eyes, saying with excitement, "We are not friends, but a family . If my family member becomes a blood elementalist, would I leave him? Why do we choose to celebrate here around the sword formation? It's because we want to celebrate with Ai Hui and because we want him to know that we will not leave or abandon him . He will always be our leader . "
Shi Xueman looked at her blankly . A warm current surged in her heart, and her nose felt sore . She was concerned about Ai Hui's safety as well as others' attitude toward him . Born in an aristocratic family, she had seen too much betrayal and the fickleness of human nature . Therefore, she cherished the purity and happiness of the moment more than anything else .
Everything that had happened along the way passed through her mind .
