Yue Chen Yin Chapter 7 Part1

Akiha: Originally I plan to only release this when I'm done with Chapter 8 cuz at the end of this chapter the cliff hanger is very bad. But on second thought, I thought to update this part first to avoid having anyone thinking I'm abandoning this project

While I'm in a state of confusion, that fragrance wafts. Is it the QunFang Marrow? How do I regain my senses, and how do I reclaim the control over my body? The me now feels like a lone bird that got its wings broken and falling onto the ground helplessly. There is no moon or stars on top of my head, and neither are there any lights. Only a heavy and dense darkness surrounded me, it was so dense that I find it hard to breathe.

Surrounding me, only darkness can be felt; inside my heart, only depression can be felt.

Rolling my body on the ground, I can't help but to hug myself tightly as the surroundings had made me feel colder and colder. At this unknown place, I only have myself left. Mother, are you in the same situation as Qing Qing, are you in such a grave situation as well? If we are in the same situation, then why don't I see you? A light wind can be felt from the crevices. From the crevices that cannot be seen, low and deep voices can be heard.

"……" I can't hear them clearly, so I moved myself towards where the cold wind entered from.

"…… Brought it." That sounds like the voice of Tang Zhong.

"Why is it dead?" An angry roar slightly washed away the darkness surrounding me. I took that chance to brush away the mist and run towards the bright place faraway.

"f.u.c.k, it was in the conditions that we want someone alive! Someone that's alive!"

"Why are you being impatient? We of the Ri Yao Sect have never failed before."

The QunFang Marrow wafting on my nose was replaced with a refreshing smell of mint. That fragrance was like the cold wind that blew in the cold winter night. It wafts into my nasal cavity and enter my brain, blowing away the mist within, making everything become clear at once. I slowly open my eyes. Within the huge and bright room, there stood a few people. When I listen carefully, footsteps that is near and far at times can be heard. Suddenly, an enlarged face appears right in front of me. It shocked me so much that I gasped. I raise my neck see that the black-faced man has iron armour on him and a long sword on his waist. He has big eyes and a small head, which makes him look evil; his hair are messy and rough, like an iron brush, and the ferociousness is comparable to that of a Suan Ni [1].

"Shi Jiu, relief her of her acupoint." Tilting my head over, I see Tang Zhong sitting on a chair made of pear blossom wood drinking his tea leisurely.

Feeling the side of my neck and back being tapped on quickly, a clear soreness can be felt going through my joints. I try to move my fingers and my hand is balled into a fist while trembling. I can move. I then clear my throat and a hoa.r.s.e voice can be heard, my voice is back. Joy surged from my heart. I push myself off the ground with my palm and stand up with trembling legs. Before I can stand straight, my leg gave up on me and I fall to the front. I close my eyes, waiting for the antic.i.p.ated pain but in the end I fall into a soft embrace.

"Qing Qing……" It's~ mother's voice! I open my eyes quickly and see mother with sadness over her face. Her face was pale and within her eyes, compa.s.sion can be seen.

The sight in front of me begins to blur out and my lips can't help but tremble. I swallow my saliva to moisten my throat before I call out to the endeared and precious word: "Mother~"

"Qing Qing!" Mother hugs me tightly. Tears flow out of her eyes slowly as if two rivers flowing down, and all of it in the end falls onto my cheek. As if a boat that found a pier in the midst of tsunami, as if a bird that found their nest in the midst of storm, as if a floating apple on the river that found a support; my unsettled and lonely heart had finally found its warm home, and I feel at peace.
