Chapter 6: The Thunder Tribulation Has Receded
1259 Words
As Ye Hua was lost in contemplation,"I can't afford to keep it!", Yun Mo suddenly said.
Ye Hua:?
Yun Mo immediately put on a tearful expression, hugging Ye Hua's arm and rubbing her face against it, pleading pathetically:"Hua Brother, I have no money ah, will you sponsor me for three years? After three years, when I break through the Lifebinding fate plaque, I'll work to earn money to pay you back."
It is no simple feat to cultivate to the level of Spirit Emperor in three years. It is a massive undertaking!
But Yehua did not hear her subsequent words, his attention had already been drawn to 'Hua Brother.' "Hua Brother, please?", Yun Mo batted her eyelashes at him in an adorable manner. At this time, Ye Hua felt a rush of blood, his heartbeat quickening.
He looked at her as if seeing a ghost, then roughly pushed her away. The next moment, his figure vanished without a trace.
Yun Mo's brows were furrowed, feeling inexplicably strange.
Though he looks handsome and prince-like, he turns out to be a miserly penny pincher. I'd seen wrong! Enough of this, he was scared away just by asking for money. He's probably more miserly than me. I will forget about it in the future!
Coming to her senses, Yun Mo saw the scene was in chaos, corpses of cultivators and beasts everywhere, blood flowed like rivers, broken wood and leaves, gales raged.
She realized she was protected by a small formation. Yun Mo lifted her lips in a smile, that guy Ye Hua, besides being a bit penny pinching, was quite attentive.
“Bang——”
With a loud rumble, the sky was torn open, a silver thunder the thickness of an arm struck the cave. The cave instantly collapsed, dust rolled up, and rocks flew.
It was the first time Yun Mo saw such a scene. Her eyes lit up with delight.
Continuous thick thunder struck the wrecked cave. Unfortunately, the divine beast did not appear.
Humans and beasts continued to clash and slaughter each other, with some stronger beings hiding by the side and waiting for an opportunity.
Suddenly, Yun Mo was attracted by two figures - a handsome man in a white robe and silk gown and a woman in tattered clothes yet still beautiful, standing back to back fighting the surrounding spirit beasts together.
These two people were Chuyunheng and Sulei. It did not surprise her that they hooked up together.
After all, in the original host's memories, Sulei had secretly flirted with Chuyunheng many times, but the original host was too innocent to realize it.
"A scumbag matching a pretended -lotus flower, quite a fitting pair...", Yun Mo's lips curled up slightly in derision.
If she did nothing, she would feel like she had wronged this matching pair of awful man and woman.
She lifted her right hand with two sap green leaves pinched between her fingers, her beautiful eyes carrying a malicious smile. With a gentle wave,"Swish swish".
"Ah ah ..." Chuyunheng and Sulei cried out miserably at the same time.
The leaves pierced right through the back of their right hands, almost nailing them there, causing excruciating pain. Chuyunheng let out a roar like an angry wild dog,"Who is it?!" "Who is injuring us secretly with hidden arrows?!"
Sulei's sword fell to the ground as she covered her continuously bleeding hand, crying out emotionally: "Come out, I know it's you! Why do you target me again and again?"
Though an ordinary sap green leaf in itself, in the hands of that mysterious woman in black robe and veil, it could unleash extraordinary power.
With Sulei's years of scheming, she could sense the ill will of that mysterious woman towards her.....
Had it not been for her father's warning,cautioning her to restrain her anger, she would have long ago plotted against that mysterious woman.
Upon hearing this, Chuyunheng furrowed his brows and asked her with an implied anger in his eyes:"Who are you referring to?" Sulei bit her lip,"A woman who targets me for no reason." "Then why did she plot against me?"
"Perhaps because she thinks there is something unusual between us."
Chuyunheng was at a loss for words upon hearing this. He cast a glance at Sulei. If not for her, how would he have been injured? Gradually, he turned his anger towards Sulei.
Chuyunheng rebuked her loudly:"Why did you provoke that woman? If you did not provoke her, how would she plot against us?"
Su Lei was scolded from head to toe, and she looked up in shock. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief and sadness.
Tears streamed down Sulei's face as if they were flowing freely. She couldn't help but express her grievance, saying, "How could you scold me so loudly like that?"
Upon seeing Sulei crying pearls and rain, Chu Yunheng's heart faltered. He should not have blamed her.
Sulei, so gentle and soft, must have been targeted by that woman due to jealousy, resulting in their plot against them both.
Chu Yunheng embraced her with his uninjured hand, speaking softly:"Lei Lei, I was wrong to speak to you so loudly in my haste. Don't think too much about it."
In his embrace, Sulei's gaze lowered slightly, flashes of dissatisfaction and anger crossed her eyes before she suppressed them. Were it not for the bit of true feeling she harbored for Chuyunheng, how could she have forgiven him?
At this moment, Yun Mo in a corner saw this scene and felt a thousand grass mud horses gallop in her mind.
Even in such a dangerous environment, they get injured yet distracted enough to speak of love, misunderstandings clearing up again.
Were it not for their subordinates blocking the spirit beasts' attacks , Sulei and Chuyunheng would have long lost their lives!
Suddenly, something nudged her foot, causing Yun Mo to instinctively prepare to attack. But when she saw a small furry spirit beast with a white head nudging her, her attack abruptly changed direction and landed elsewhere.
Curious as to why there was a low-level spirit beast here, Yun Mo squatted down and gently touched its head. It was so soft and comfortable to the touch.
It was tiny, about the size of her fist, and looked like a round ball because its limbs were too short. Its eyes, however, were beautiful, with a pair of translucent pupils.
Yun Mo lifted it up and placed it in the palm of her hand, saying, "Little one, have you lost your way? This isn't where you should be."
"Chirp, chirp," the little fluffy ball made a faint sound. It melted Yun Mo's heart.
Just then, a thicker lightning bolt struck the cave, shattering it into pieces.
Startled, the little fluff ball quickly slipped into Yun Mo's sleeve.
Yun Mo could even feel the little creature clinging to her arm, tickling her.
"Don't be afraid, it can't reach you," Yun Mo lightly patted its body through her ink-colored robe.
The little fluff ball seemed to calm down and didn't move.
The dark clouds dispersed, the sky cleared, and the light shone through.
As if receiving a command, the group of beasts scattered in different directions, running away frantically.
Everyone was shocked and jumped into the blackened cave to inspect it.
Some even stubbornly started digging. "What's going on? Where's the divine beast?"
"The thunder tribulation has receded, so where is the divine beast?"
"The cave is reduced to ashes. Don't tell me the spirit beast was struck to death?!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
