The Price Of Confessing To The Wrong Female Protagonist Chapter 7

[(T/N)- Before this chapter starts, this translation finally has an editor! Yay (*≧▽≦) Now I feel half the pain of translating. Chapter Edited by: Chinthani ]

In fact, YunGe was inwardly excited. Facing off against a mere Level 4 Flame Beast was almost a theatrical display of a crus.h.i.+ng victory. It left her feeling somewhat “High in score but low in ability” about herself. Eh…
correction, it should be “High ability, low cognition”…

But, not only were Level 8 Flame Beasts different from the other spiritual beasts, the power of their flames were also on a whole other level from lower level Flame Beasts. Factor in an enraged Flame Beast and it becomes even more terrifying.

Except for the big tree where the apprentice was located in, all other living organisms had already been burned by the Level 8 Flame Beast's spiritual flames!

YunGe held her sword in one hand and charged at the beast's Achilles' heel. Her other hand dissolved the Flame Beast's attack.

At the start of the battle, the combat gap between the two had made things difficult for YunGe. But luckily, her reaction and comprehension abilities were top-tier. After suffering several losses, YunGe discovered this Flame Beast's only flaw.

At the beginning, YunGe had not used her Thunder Variation spiritual veins because she wasn't 100% sure of the outcome; She did not wish to waste her own spiritual power such a immense, unique skill.

YunGe dodged past another hit from the Flame Beast and found her chance. Her right hand turned and formed a powerful Lightning Variation attack power. Then, she used it to strike the Flame Beast's eye.

The Level 8 Flame Beast obviously did not expect such a move from YunGe. Her attacks couldn't leave even a scratch (?) on their snow-white fur, but their eyes were different. A Level 8 Flame Beast's vulnerable spot is its eyes. An intolerable pain accompanied by a rapid disappearance of spiritual power made the Flame Beast completely mad!

Despite losing an eye, the Flame Beast could locate YunGe with its remaining spiritual power. It had already lost its reason, directly charging towards YunGe!

“Senior Martial Sister！！！！” Having sensed huge spiritual power fluctuations, Junior Sister Lin Ling and Third Junior Brother Lin Pu had rushed to witness this scene!

Only to see YunGe laugh coldly（？）, “Brute. I had originally thought to spare your life. Now, it seems unnecessary.”

Others may not know, but could YunGe not know? From the beginning, this Flame Beast's target had not been her, but rather the big tree behind her! YunGe did not understand the Flame Beast's line of thinking but that did not affect her killing intent.

Junior Sister Lin Ling opened her mouth. This was the first time she had seen her Senior Sister fight. Everyone in Yunfu School was aware that the Eldest Disciple of Thunder Peak's master is the pride of the Lin generation. At the young age of 16, she was at Foundation Establishment. The number 1 in the entire cultivation world! But hardly any disciple had ever seen this #1 person fight.

All the other cultivators had the habit of advancing in actual combat. Not only could they acquire combat experience, they could also toughen their willpower. Although YunGe hardly ever undertook tasks, and did not engage in actual combat, she still managed to advance more rapidly than anyone else. This had given cause to some envious remarks about how she had talent, but not the corresponding willpower. Later on, they didn't know which male cultivator would be let off lightly…

Lin Ling's eyes emitted rays as she looked at the Flame Beast, but it didn't make the situation difficult（？） for Senior Martial Sister. The latter's face had remained serene, as if she was were facing not a Level 8
Spiritual Beast, but merely a disobedient big cat. Once in a while, strands of
unruly (?) hair streaked across her cheek. With spiritual energy
protecting her body and the white sleeves of her robe fluttering in the breeze… this kind of image (?) can could only be used to describe a Fairy！！

If YunGe could hear what her Junior Brother and Junior Sister were thinking in their hearts, she would certainly want to complain. He he[1]… Third Junior Brother, Junior Sister. I presume you hit your brains until they were soft and then added in a photoshop of a beautiful picture[2]? Still the latest version？？？Do you not see me forced to use my Root Life Thunder?[3]

Every cultivator had their own spiritual veins. It is only natural to have a sword. However, there were no spiritual veins that could to help absorb spiritual energy; and improving one's cultivation base was difficult. In general, during a battle, cultivators would not rashly use their own spiritual veins to make a move. This was because of how difficult it was to regain
spiritual power after it was used. As the battle progressed, they could only rely on their swordsmans.h.i.+p.

Fortunately, YunGe had already destroyed the Level 8 Flame Beast's eyes. So even if it was a little exhausting, she could still capture this damaged but
resistant and hard-to-defeat Flame Beast.

It was not until YunGe used her last strike on the Flame Beast, that it fell to
the ground. When the beast fell, Junior Sister and Junior Brother returned to reality. As a result, they saw that their Senior Sister did not even glance at her prize for winning, but went directly to the top of a tree… the top of a tree… tree… the only plant that was still intact. The two widened their eyes. Senior Martial Sister! That is a Level 8 Flame Beast ah！！Don't be like this, ok?

At the top of the tree, YunGe saw the apprentice trapped in the small
circle. The apprentice hugged her knees and curled her body. YunGe felt distressed. While battling with the beast, she had sensed the apprentice wanted trying to come out. But she did not dare to let this unarmed and defenseless[4] little guy out.

YunGe carried the trembling apprentice. The apprentice was still too small. It was inevitable that this type of scenario would frighten her. However, the apprentice's physique won't allow her to retreat in fear. This was another reason why YunGe had wanted to bring the apprentice here.

[T/N- “暗道” was between the first 2 sentences of the paragraph above, no idea what it meant.]

Perhaps finally sensing the familiar smell, the apprentice suddenly burrowed into YunGe's embrace. Her head was firmly buried in YunGe's chest.

YunGe gently patted the apprentice's back. Her tone as gentle and soft as
ever. “It's all right, it's all right…”

“Mas…ter…” The voice was thin and small, but what kind of person was YunGe? Her entire body shook for a while and felt numb. She finally understood how her best friend must have felt when she heard that child called her ‘mother' for the first time!

” … ” The little apprentice had already raised her head. Unlike the meaty little faces of other children, the apprentice's face had almost no meat. Exactly not much meat on the face. Her watery, sly eyes got bigger. At this moment, the habitually expressionless eyes were full of panic. Her face was covered in tears. Her little hands tightly grabbed YunGe's lapel.This appearance made YunGe's heart ache. Is she too worried?

YunGe lightly wiped the apprentice's tears. “Don't cry. This time, it's my fault for bringing you out here…” YunGe felt regretful. The child was different from herself, and her Junior Brother and Junior Sister. Her heart had been covered in dust…

The apprentice struggled for a moment, then YunGe was surprised. She saw a lump of spiritual power that almost resembled cotton candy… She took another glance at her still-crying apprentice…

Wasn't this too powerful? The apprentice had yet to learn how to use spiritual power. She had only seen YunGe gather spiritual power once. Now, she had unexpectedly learned how！！

While YunGe was in a daze, a refres.h.i.+ng flavor went from her lips and flowed into her body. The spiritual power that was exhausted from the use of Root Life Thunder was gradually replenished.

YunGe returned to reality and realized that the apprentice had put the spiritual cotton candy in her mouth…

YunGe's heart felt warm… this child…

End of Chapter 7 Thanks for Reading!

[1]- “如果被现在被八级火焰兽逼得气急的云歌知道了自家师妹和师弟的心里的想法” also, that ‘he he' was not ‘he.' It's a cold, sarcastic laugh of some sort. [2]-“你们脑袋里是自打柔光再加上ps以及美图秀秀吧？” Yun Ge's creative insults have lost me… [3]- “没看到我已经被逼得用自己的本命雷了吗？” [4]- “手无寸铁 “- Literally “not an inch of steel.” Figuratively- “unarmed and defenseless.”

What's better than fluff after a good bad*ss scene :3

On another note, I finally found my childhood anime (hopefully that doesn't affect translation speed). Resident Evil 2 (remake?) is also out
(*≧▽≦)
