The Ancestor of our Sect Isn't Acting like an Elder Chapter 162

Chapter 162: 162

162 – Pit

“– Hmm, why are you not speaking?”

An astonished sweet voice came from behind .

Xue Qilin held her breath . Xihe also stopped struggling and looked behind Xue Qilin, stunned .

In the wide opened eyes, the scene behind Xue Qilin — a gold figure sitting on a tree, legs dangling — was clearly reflected .

Asura’er .

Could it be that it wasn’t Xihe who hurt Little Seven, but her? It is possible . Xue Qilin’s head is buzzing . Jialan’s temperament is hard to pin down; there’s no way to judge what actions she will take .

Xue Qilin glanced at Xihe, and saw sadness and aggrievedness in her eyes .

She suddenly calmed down, as if a basin of water was poured on her .

What have I done? Xue Qilin felt lightheaded and released her grip . Xihe, thereupon, plopped down on her b.u.t.t and coughed violently .

“Hey, you aren’t fighting? How boring . ”

With a “heave-ho”, Jialan jumped down from the tree . She swayed her arms and approached unhurriedly, as if taking a stroll .

“I’m so disappointed in you guys . You didn’t fight hard at all — hmm, but also… ‘Heaven Realm’ only amounts to this much in the end . ”

Jialan crossed her arms and nodded, agreeing with her words .

Holding her face with a hand, Xue Qilin slowly turned around . Shaking eyes emerged from between the fingers .

“It’s you?”

Xue Qilin’s voice was inexplicably hoa.r.s.e .

“Hmm? What is me? I am me . Your question is too vague?”

Jialan stopped, patted an index finger against lips, and tilted her head .

Next —

“Ah!”

Evidently having though of something, Jialan clapped her hands in surprise .

The shallow dimples on her face setting off her lips, she revealed a honey-sweet smile and gazed at Xue Qilin .

“It’s me! If you are asking, if it’s me who hurt Merak Temple’s Temple Master, then the answer is affirmative . ”

Her smile became even sweeter, and an unnatural blush appeared on her face .

“Well, it’s me . ”

“Why…?”

“There is no reason why . ” She spoke in a matter-of-factly tone, “It’s just more fun this way . Isn’t it?”

“… fun?”

You gravely wounded Little Seven because it’s fun? Xue Qilin’s eyes widened, her mind a blank .

The la.s.s in front of her has gone beyond her scope of understanding .

Xue Qilin cannot understand her .

Although human life is cheap, but she didn’t expect that it would be this cheap in Jialan’s eyes .

To take someone’s life just because it would be fun — what a twisted outlook .

“However, I was aiming for her heart . She shouldn’t be able to react . But suddenly, a wall that seemed to be made from true qi appeared and helped her block, saving her life…”

Jialan kicked a pebble next to her feet with dissatisfaction .

The pebble streaked across Xue Qilin’s left cheek and opened a shallow wound, and then pierced through several tree trunks . Xue Qilin didn’t react at all . It was too fast .

“Hey, do you know what happened? It was your doing, wasn’t it?”

Eyes sparkling, an expression of suppressed excitement on her face, Jialan looks like a child filled with curiosity .

Only… how can she make such a smile while talking about such things? This disparity makes the atmosphere turn strange .

It’s really twisted — no, it’s really pure . She only does what she wants .

Xue Qilin closed her eyes .

Shouldn’t exist .

She shouldn’t exist .

An indescribable anger gripped Xue Qilin . She didn’t know at the time that the anger that nearly engulfed her was largely due to self-blame for mistaking targets and hurting Xihe .

Why am I so impulsive? The sense of guilt fermented enough to distort any of the la.s.s’s existing emotions .

“– Little Phecda!”

Xue Qilin shouted at the top of her lungs, and her voice resounded in the sky .

In response to the call, the large mechanical sword, that fell aside, rouse into the air unnaturally, then turned around and shot towards Xue Qilin .

However, Phecda didn’t return to Xue Qilin’s hand .

“I didn’t allow you to get together!”

With a flash of gold light, a hand struck Phecda and flung her back .

Unable to bear the formidable strength of a Grandmaster, the place where the heavy sword was. .h.i.t depressed in the shape of a hand print .

Empyrean Universe embedded into a large boulder far away, and then became quiet .

“Little Phecda!”

Was her true form hurt? Why doesn’t she respond? Xue Qilin hurried to the place where Phecda fell . However, Jialan only took one step and arrived before Xue Qilin, blocking her way .

“You…”

“Where are you going?”

Jialan smiled sweetly .

However, her smile lasted only for a moment . In the next moment, her expression changed, and she stared at Xue Qilin coldly .

“I haven’t finished speaking, yet you want to leave? That isn’t very polite, don’t you know?”

Polite? Did she say to be polite to her? That’s ludicrous . Xue Qilin issued an ill-timed chuckle .

“What a nasty reaction!”

Jialan’s expression turned cold .

And then —

“Crack . ”

Jialan lifted a leg and slammed it into the ground .

— it was like an earthquake occurred .

In an instant, the land in Martial Demon Realm rumbled and shook .

Unpleasant noise that resembled the sound of bones breaking rang, as the terrain, within an area 20 meters in diameter centered on Jialan, crumbled and cracked .

At first, Xue Qilin thought that the ground, unable to bear the impact, cracked, and that’s it . But unexpectedly —

All of a sudden, a rock disappeared from between the cracks .

It fell! It fell into the ground!

“–!”

s.h.i.+t! Realizing that things are bad, Xue Qilin wanted to retreat at once .

But she was still a step too slow .

The ground collapsed and exposed a dark bottomless pit in a flash .

Xue Qilin, who lost her footing, immediately fell along with the rocks . But the two didn’t have same endings .

Xue Qilin adjusted her posture, floated in mid-air, and grabbed Xihe, who fell along with her .

“Thank you…”

Xihe let go of the other party’s hand and started flying by herself . Her tone was particularly unfamiliar . Is it due to Xue Qilin accusing her wrongly?

“This is not the time to be at ease . ”

Xue Qilin narrowed her eyes .

At the end of her line of sight, there is Jialan guarding the entrance of the pit .

The pit is only about 20 meters in diameter, neither narrow nor wide . It is surrounded by a solid rock wall . Furthermore, the only exit is blocked by Asura’er .

How do we get out? Xue Qilin, even when joining forces with Xihe, may not be able to beat Jialan . As long as Jialan stays at the entrance of the pit, they will be trapped here .

However, it doesn’t look like Jialan intends to trap them here .

Spark-like light particles dropped from above .

Gold light shone at the entrance of the pit .

Fluorescent, majestic breath swayed like smoke .

“That wretched Asura’er, she actually wants to kill us!”

Full of smiles, Jialan pressed down gently with her right hand, which glows with dazzling light .

Light engulfed the field of vision .

A palm print of the same size as the pit’s mouth pressed down .

“Let’s go down!”

Xihe set out first .

“No need to state the obvious!”

Xue Qilin immediately turned around and chased after the darkness that is being dispelled by the gold light .

However, they didn’t escape the palm print in the end .

Gold light engulfed the two, and then exploded .

Enduring the severe pain that raged all over her body, keeping herself awake, Xue Qilin exited the cloud of dust .

A feeling of falling enveloped her .

Her body is wailing, her clothes are badly mangled .

“Uw…”

Xue Qilin managed to open her eyes with great difficulty, and debris immediately reflected in her eyes .

A few stones. .h.i.t her, and she clenched her teeth in pain .

What a joke! Even if she doesn’t fall to her death, she’ll still be crushed to death! But Xue Qilin is out of strength .

As she wondered if she would be buried here, someone flew towards her .

It is Xihe .

She hugged Xue Qilin, and her nine tails interlaced and wrapped around both of them .

In the end, the two crashed into water .

The debris pursuing them arrived a beat later, and then water splashed about .

Everywhere is dark . Cold water poured into the nose and ears and caused acute pain, and some even went into the lungs .

In this perilous situation, Xue Qilin’s wounds flared up at the same time, and she lost consciousness .
