Chapter 647: Chapter 307: Fairy, Are You Interested in Becoming Su Hongling’s Stepmother?
"Black Bird, I’m going to fight you!"
Ming Hu shouted loudly, lifting the Thunderclap Sword to charge forward recklessly, but was stopped by Su Xin.
"Junior Sister Su?"
Su Xin’s gentle eyes looked at Ming Hu, who immediately softened. Su Xin quietly said to Wei Wan, "Sister, I’ll hold her off. You use the Thousand-Mile Talisman to escape."
Wei Wan had three Thousand-Mile Talismans on her; they had used two last night, leaving only one now.
Even deploying the Thousand-Mile Talisman might not ensure escape from the terrifying Black Phoenix.
At present, someone had to hold off Li Qinghe for the other three to have a sliver of hope.
"Sister, I’ll stay with you!"
"Little sister, you should understand that one person’s sacrifice is better than everyone dying."
Su Xin glanced back at Ming Hu, "Senior Brother Ming, I’m sorry, if there’s a next life..."
She didn’t finish her words and turned to fly toward the black Divine Phoenix, with her Gentle Heart Sword emitting a pure white light.
"Junior Sister Su!"
Ming Hu wanted to rush forward, but he was heavily injured, and Wei Wan held him back, leaving him to watch helplessly as Su Xin charged toward the giant Black Phoenix.
Soon, that small figure was engulfed in black flames.
"Junior Sister Su!!"
With a desperate shout, the Thousand-Mile Talisman was activated, and Wei Wan, Ming Hu, and Zhu Lin instantly flew a thousand miles away.
Moments later, the three fell from the sky into a lake.
Ming Hu jumped out of the lake with a splash, attempting to rise through Sword Control, but fell back immediately.
His injuries were too severe, and his Spiritual Power was depleted, making even Sword Flight impossible.
Wei Wan dragged the unconscious Zhu Lin out of the water, sitting wearily on the ground in silence.
Ming Hu sprang from the ground, ran a few steps forward, then stopped abruptly and shouted back at Wei Wan:
"Where are we now?"
The Thousand-Mile Talisman randomly transported them a thousand miles, leaving Ming Hu directionless and uncertain of his location.
Wei Wan weakly rose from the ground, looked around, and shook her head blankly.
"Aren’t you sisters? Go back and save her!"
Ming Hu ran over, roaring with eyes wide in rage.
Wei Wan looked at him coldly, "Our sister exchanged her life for ours, if we die too, how would we repay her?"
She had to live on, reveal Li Qinghe’s transformation into the Black Phoenix to the world, and not let Su Xin’s death be in vain.
Wei Wan, carrying Zhu Lin and dragging Ming Hu, trudged forward.
Ming Hu, dazed like a walking corpse, suddenly knelt on the ground after dozens of miles, pounding the earth with his fists.
"Damn it, I’m no man! I can’t even protect the woman I love; I’m a failure, boohoo!"
The raucous and muscular man cried aloud, while Wei Wan silently watched him, gritting her teeth:
"Live on, for revenge!"
Ming Hu continued to wail when a sharp wind sounded from behind the trio. Wei Wan’s face changed, discovering a massive black Divine Phoenix flying overhead.
Clutched in its black talons was Su Xin.
At this moment, Su Xin’s eyes were closed, her body had several scorched spots, and her breath was faint.
"Beast, let go of Junior Sister Su!"
Seeing this, Ming Hu’s eyes widened with rage, raising the Thunderclap Sword, he shouted at the Black Phoenix.
"You’re quite the lovestruck fool, but alas, today you must perish."
The Black Phoenix’s voice was cold, the black flames on its wings intensified.
"Wow, what a big bird!"
Suddenly, a giant hammer descended from the sky, accompanied by lightning, to smash into the Black Phoenix.
The Black Phoenix was startled and dodged, but the hammer turned like it was sentient, striking the Black Phoenix’s talon, causing Su Xin to fall from its grip.
A tall figure flew and caught Su Xin mid-air, with a beckoning gesture, the giant hammer flew to her hand.
The woman landed, grinning at Ming Hu, "Senior Brother, crying over a woman, you truly are a... real man!"
Ming Hu ran over and directly took Su Xin from her arms, "Junior Sister Su, Junior Sister Su, are you okay?"
Su Hongling was speechless, "Hey, I’m your junior sister, don’t you care about me?"
"You are Su Hongling? Quite bold!"
The Black Phoenix in the air was furious, its beak opened wide, shooting a black flame at the group!
Su Hongling laughed heartily, "This big bird is impressive, interesting!"
She swung the giant hammer, sending out bolts of lightning to collide with the black flames. The two sides stalemated in the air for a moment, but the black flames eventually prevailed, pressing down on Su Hongling.
"Su Longxiang, stop hiding and get out here!"
Su Hongling shouted, a massive sword like a mountain suddenly appeared in the sky, its blade wrapped with lightning, surrounded by lightning and thunder, like a heavenly thunder trial, accompanied by a proud voice:
"Su Hongling, you lost, this time you’ll have to be a good, obedient daughter!"
"So much talking, get moving already!"
Su Hongling rebuked, the giant Thunder Sword fell swiftly, piercing the black Divine Phoenix.
The Black Phoenix screeched, its black flames exploding, repelling the Thunder Sword. A fierce look flashed in its eyes.
"You’re courting death!"
At that moment, the Black Phoenix paused, seemingly hearing an order, and decided not to fight, transforming back into Li Qinghe. Her form turned into a black light and swiftly departed.
The massive Thunder Sword shrank, revealing a tall middle-aged man behind it. He laughed heartily:
"The Ancient Divine Phoenix is truly extraordinary, withstanding my full strike unscathed, impressive, impressive! Ah! Su Hongling, why did you hit me?"
Su Hongling withdrew the giant hammer, cursing, "Su Longxiang, even sneak attacks can’t hurt them, you’re a pathetic weakling!"
Su Longxiang was furious, "Ungrateful girl! With outsiders present, how dare you not save face for your father!"
He adjusted his clothes, walked up to Wei Wan, his voice extremely gentle:
"Fairy, might I ask your name?"
Then, with a bang, his head was hammered into the ground, leaving only his head exposed. He angrily glared at Su Hongling:
"Ungrateful girl, what are you doing?!"
Su Hongling pulled Wei Wan behind her, introducing her:
"This is my father; he’s not right in the head, don’t mind him."
Wei Wan was still a bit dazed, she cupped her hands to Su Longxiang’s head in greeting: "Sect Leader Su, I’m Wei Wan from Xiyue Peak."
"So it’s Fairy Wenwan, third on the Beauty Ranking, no wonder you’re so beautiful. Fairy, are you interested in becoming Su Hongling’s stepmother?"
"?"
Wei Wan was taken aback.
Bam!
Su Hongling had already hammered Su Longxiang’s head completely into the ground, casually said:
"Don’t mind this idiot anymore, let’s head to the Thunder Sword Sect."
"...Okay."
Wei Wan picked up the unconscious Zhu Lin, while Ming Hu held the equally unconscious Su Xin.
The black Divine Phoenix had retreated for unknown reasons, but it was not entirely safe yet; they should head to the Thunder Sword Sect first.
"Junior Sister, why did you come with Master?"
"The Divine Phoenix made such a commotion, you could sense it from thousands of miles away, naturally, I had to see."
"Fairy Su, aren’t you going to bother about your father?"
"Do you actually want to be my stepmother?"
"...Perhaps better not."
"Ungrateful girl, you’re really leaving? Wait for me!"
As they quickly departed, Li Qinghe watched their backs from a mountain peak tens of miles away, showing unwillingness:
"Master, they’ve seen my true form, why spare them?"
"The Divine Phoenix’s aura has already spread throughout the world, killing a few can no longer conceal it."
A ethereal voice sounded, as if drifting directly from the Immortal Realm to the mortal world.
"Master, what should we do next?"
Li Qinghe bowed respectfully to the air.
"No rush, this game has lasted hundreds of years, soon coming to its close. Once my spirit is reshaped, the road to Ascension will reopen."
