Chapter 549 - 448: The Kite Battle
"Fairy? Are you talking to us?""If we can communicate, does that mean we don’t necessarily need to fight?"
Two thoughts flashed quickly in Li Lingzhen’s mind as she saw Xia Youwei step forward ahead of her.
Li Lingzhen felt a slight sense of relief in her heart.
Still, Youwei knew how to care for others, understanding that her own brain cells were nearly exhausted, so she proactively helped share the burden a bit.
Good sister! This is true friendship in times of trouble!
She only saw Xia Youwei look at the celestial soldiers ahead and with a calm tone said, "Call me sister."
Li Lingzhen: "???"
Celestial Soldier: "???"
The celestial soldier, who was responsible for guarding the place, visibly had an ugly expression.
"Second Fairy, are you deliberately insulting me?!"
"Hmph, under the orders of the Queen Mother of the West, I guard this place. No matter how noble your statuses are usually, they have no effect here!"
"The lady has sealed your cultivation powers with mana, so you should obediently stay here and reflect on your past mistakes!"
The celestial soldier left these harsh words, brandishing a silver long spear directly.
A line that can’t be crossed was drawn on the ground.
Alright.
Now the relationship has deteriorated, and there’s no need to talk about any friendship.
Li Lingzhen held her forehead with her hand, realizing that the situation was more severe than she had imagined.
Looking at her three other sisters around her, one could only say "um," which no one except her could understand; another only asked to be called ’sister,’ a strange quirk of the Main Palace Lady; and yet another didn’t speak at all, maintaining her clear and stupid persona.
One carrying three, it’s really hard to handle.
"The lady told us to stay here to reflect and we’ve deeply realized our mistakes, sincerely repenting. Can we leave now?"
Li Lingzhen tried to restrain her emotions, probing by asking.
The righteous celestial soldier didn’t even glance at her and said directly, "No, the lady said however long it should be, that’s how long it will be. Unless there’s a personal decree from the lady herself, it’s impossible for you to leave."
"Then how long exactly does the lady plan to keep us here?"
Li Lingzhen followed up with a crucial question.
This time the celestial soldier finally looked at her.
For some reason, Li Lingzhen seemed to detect a hint of—sympathy?—from that gaze.
"The lady said, a hundred years!"
A hundred years?! Hearing this time frame, Li Lingzhen finally understood the source of sympathy in the celestial soldier’s eyes.
If they were really kept there for a hundred years, even the flowers might wither to dust!
No, absolutely not!
After understanding this, Li Lingzhen and her companions completely gave up any other thoughts,
now, there was only one path left to take.
"What are you all spacing out for? Sisters, grab your weapons!"
Just as Li Lingzhen finished speaking, the Shennong Cauldron formed in the sky and crashed down towards the celestial soldier’s head.
"You all!" Seeing this scene, the celestial soldier flashed a look of shock, apparently not expecting the fairies imprisoned in the forbidden place to dare do such a thing.
Not to mention, this was openly defying the orders of the Queen Mother of the West, an audacious act.
Just relying on their Tier One Cultivation Realm, trying to challenge him, a Tier Two Peak, was simply preposterous.
"Bold!" The celestial soldier couldn’t help but angrily shout.
The silver long spear in his hand radiated a harsh cold light, seemingly capable of piercing through clouds and sweeping away all evils.
The next second, the long spear, pointing upwards, jabbed directly at the Shennong Cauldron.
Thud!
A dull sound rang out, the formed Shennong Cauldron lasted less than three seconds before shattering into light and dissipating.
Clang, clang, clang!
Li Lingzhen’s actions bought a precious three seconds.
In those three seconds, Xia Youwei had also summoned the Fu Xi Zither, and the Zither Sound Air Blade slashed through the air.
"Hmph! A mere trick!" The celestial soldier, facing the sudden attack, did not even dodge, instead striding boldly towards Xia Youwei, the source of the attack.
Bang, bang, bang!
Three consecutive Zither Sound Air Blades collided with the celestial soldier; the mighty and extraordinary silver armor he wore reflected the rune flow, emitting a faint glow.
The attack from the Zither Sound Air Blade was instantly nullified.
Seizing this opportunity, the celestial soldier swung the silver long spear once again like a silver meteor, landing on Xia Youwei.
Xia Youwei felt a sharp pain from her shoulder blade, the spearhead pierced through her shoulder, and the massive force sent her flying backward.
"Youwei!" Shang Siteng exclaimed, her clear and foolish self finally catching on, activating the ability of the Nuwa Stone of Heavenly Origin.
But with the Tier One Heaven’s Origin, attempting to decompose the celestial soldier’s weapons and armor was still quite strenuous.
Shang Siteng had just decomposed a tiny bit, and the celestial soldier who severely injured Xia Youwei had already found time to retaliate with a counterattack.
The silver spearhead pierced through Shang Siteng’s abdomen.
In less than two breaths, two had already been gravely injured.
"Um!" Jiang Lingling huffed, launching an attack from Haotian Tower from another direction.
Special sealing symbols peeled off the tower body of the Haotian Tower, and as Jiang Lingling pointed from afar, they fell onto the celestial soldier.
The speed and power of the celestial soldier’s swinging silver long spear were significantly weakened.
His once-smooth attacks began to feel as if he were stuck in a quagmire, becoming sluggish.
"Hmph!" The celestial soldier snorted coldly again. Although his movements became slow, with four enemies left only two, and the opponents couldn’t break through his defense, defeating them was only a matter of time.
"It’s useless; everything you’re doing now is in vain."
"The seal may slow my actions, but it must consume quite a bit of spiritual power, right?"
The celestial soldier said, his gaze falling on Jiang Lingling, whose face had turned pale.
Once Jiang Lingling’s seal fails, the silver long spear would pierce through her body, making her the third seriously injured!
At this critical moment, suddenly, a zither sound rang out, landing on Jiang Lingling.
Her once-pale complexion immediately recovered slightly.
It was Xia Youwei!
She was back at full strength beside them, with the wound on her shoulder blade completely gone!
What happened?
Facing the puzzled Jiang Lingling and Li Lingzhen, she said only four words, "Rhombic Crystal!"
The Rhombic Crystal can heal injuries and restore spiritual power.
The Rhombic Crystal was only a five-minute journey away, and if they ran faster, it could be shorter.
At that moment, hope rekindled in Li Lingzhen’s eyes.
She immediately stood up, commanding the Shennong Cauldron, directing it towards Jiang Lingling, "Lingling, hold on, I’m going to fill you up, no, inject, no..."
Li Lingzhen’s cheeks flushed red, forcing herself to stop her words.
But she did not pause her actions,
Under the nurturing of the Shennong Cauldron’s Creation of Living Beings, Jiang Lingling returned to her peak state.
After completing these actions, Li Lingzhen and Xia Youwei, without another word, continued to run towards the Rhombic Crystal!
"With a kite-flying battle, we can win!"
