Divine Mountain is Emotionless
With another step backward, her body is already staggering. From behind, there was someone who happened to support her, so she was able to prevent herself from collapsing. Turning her head around to see Yue Ran who appears to have clear understanding of the situation, she bitterly forms a smile.
Yue Ran, you were still right!
Before, when he broke down that shield to save her, he probably had already discovered! Yet she herself, needed to see with her own eyes to believe.
"Let's go back!" Yue Ran heaved a sigh, raising a hand to put away that shield he had placed around the two of them in order to conceal their aura. Knowing how much she hopes there to be someone that would treat her genuinely, that not until the very last moment, would she be willing to let go. Only this can make her give up.
"Who's there?" That green robed man sensed something and turned towards them. Mu Zi Xin also looked over. The two's footsteps made their way over. Yin Luo was still muddleheaded, in a daze, buzzing sounds pa.s.sing through her ear, yet not hearing anything.
The two pushed away the peach tree branches in their way, walked straight into their direction, meeting with Yin Luo's face which was blooming with a smile resembling spring, a face full of joy, staring at Mu Zi Xin. His was completely opposite that of the gloomy Yue Ran who stood at her side.
Green robed man bolted out, "The Disowned.....disowned...."
"Yin Luo, I am called Yin Luo!" Yin Luo took over his words, and interrupted, "You must be who Bai Zhu said, that Shi Xiong that he must save?"
The man frowned, not knowing how long those two had been concealing their energy and listening. "The head of Bai Mu, Mu Leng Li!" Seeing that she was just smiling and looking towards Zi Xin, they probably had not heard much.
"So it's the head-master!" Yin Luo was slightly startled, knowing why she had thought he looked familiar. She turned with another brilliant smile when looking towards the other person, "I've already taken medicine, so am already much better. Came to see how things are going!"
Even though she is saying so, the body is still unsteady, almost as if one breeze and she would fall down. Mu Zi Xin could not restrain from going forward to support her, brows starting to tighten again, "You've been injured quite heavily, you shouldn't move!"
"It's no problem! I have the undying body of a G.o.d!" Yin Luo smiled wryily, slowly taking back that hand he has caught. Eyes staring at him, but not like before when she was just staring at his face. Instead, it's fixed at waist side.
"What are you looking for?" He asked.
"I was wondering...where did you put the Liu Hua Flower?"
"It's in my hand!"
Yin Luo looked down. It really was! "Gong Zi has really cherished it, I'm very happy!" While speaking, she extends her hand to take his hand. Yet from her chest comes a wave of intense pain, making her need to bend down.
"Yin Luo!"
"Nothing!" Once again she dodged support from his arm, taking a step back and b.u.mped into Yue Ran behind her. Yue Ran's brows came together, his expression tensed. Seeing her tightly clenching her chest and the look of her panting, he sighed, in the end gave her an arm
"This is just some old afflictions, not from those injuries just earlier, it will be alright in a moment!" Yin Luo tugged at the corner of her lips, complexion white as paper. Applying some pressure on her heart, she bit on her lip and lifted her head, staring at his hand again.
With effort, she pulled his hand over. At the center of his palm laid her Liu Hua Flower. Stroking it, she can still feel that faint warmth it carried. She made a move to take it, but felt his hand move, as if wanting to hold onto it, but in the end still let her take it.
"Why take it away?" He asked.
Yin Luo fixed her eyes on that Liu Hua which had returned back to her hands. The flower, being wrapped in a layer of transparent ice, it's petals are snowy white and pure, with only a dab of scarlet at the center of the flower, pure yet bewitching. It is that drop of blood from a G.o.d, which keeps the flower from withering when detached from the branch.
Her face again wears that blindingly briliant smile from just a moment ago, "I forgot, this flower has been by my side for well over a thousand years, so long that I don't even remember when I had dripped blood on it. It looks age-worn and unpresentable. Wait until I return to the Divine Mountain, to pick a new one to give to Gong Zi."
Mu Zi Xin's expression becomes bitter, his contracted heart tightening, able hear that distancing in her tone, "You are going back to the Divine Mountain?"
"Yes!" She nodded, "I've been out for half a day already, it's about time to return!"
"....Won't wait for me.....to send you....?"
She smiled again, "The Xian Realm has just met with such an incident. It must have been greatly injured internally, and will need to recuperate for many years. Yin Luo will not trouble you, High Xian!"
High Xian? She has indeed heard them. "....this time....it was all thanks to you....I don't know how to thank...."
"Can I ask a thing from you, High Xian?" Yin Luo suddenly interupts his words.
Seeing him nod, she continues, "I heard that the Flower Yao refused to become a xian, therefore has met with the Jade Emperor's punishment. But the flower spirits are naturally innocent and kind, definitely not of those kinds that frequently commit grave evils. Hope that High Xian can help ask for some leniency in this."
Mu Zi Xin gave it a thought, recalling such a matter, "This, I've heard about. Even if you had not asked, I would mention it to the Jade Emperor!"
"Then Yin Luo is grateful towards High Xian!" She bends her body wanting to bow, but as a result, influences her wound again, coughing nonstop. Seeing Mu Zi Xin coming forward, she hurriedly takes another two steps back, into Yue Ran. "That flower spirit....and I are quite acquainted, and so with that favor...between the G.o.d Realm and Xian Realm, all debt can be considered settled!"
Mu Zi Xin upon this, tightened his brows even more.
Not knowing whether it's the usual pain in her chest, or the pain on the body is too immense, but once Yin Luo starts coughing found that she cannot stop. Her whole body is almost pressed against Yue Ran's frame.
"Also...," coughs, "....there's still something else!" Yin Luo tried suppressing the pain, looking towards that white-robed person in her sight who was comparable with snow, "Do not know....Bai Zhu, is it High Xian's other name, or one created on impulse?"
"....It was my name before I took the xian path. Upon entering Bai Mu, my teacher has given the name Zi Xin!"
"So that is how it is...." Yin Luo smiled again. At least....at least there is still something real! She shouldn't ask for too much, right?"
"Then....farewell!" Yin Luo used up her last bit of strength, her legs giving up from underneath, no longer able to stand.
"Ya Tou!" Yue Ran's brows tightened, swiftly picking her up, raised his hand to call out his sword. Turning his head to give the two a fierce look with his eyes, wasting no more time in boarding his sword, he flies off.
Mu Leng Li looked at that pale face besides him, the Mu Zi Xin that doesn't reveal any emotions, and quietly started "Zi Xin, this...."
Mu Zi Xin only kept his eyes looking in the direction that the two has disappeared. Drifting in midair, those floating scarlet red lotuses were abnormally delicate and charming.
"Shi Xiong. My whole life, I have kept my mind on the countless lives, kept my mind on the Xian Realm, kept my mind on Bai Mu. Have I been right, or wrong?"
"Huh?" Mu Leng Li didn't quite understand, staring in shock at that never before present carelessness in his eyes.
He no longer wanted to continue to discuss the matter. Gently closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and openened them again, already back to the clarity from before.
"Let's go back! Chian Fan is still in there!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Divine Mountain, at the center of the East Sea.
In the evening, when all in nature quiets down, today however is still brightly lit. At the front of the a.s.sembly hall, people bustled about, about ten or more. Each displayed the demeanor of a xian. What was suppose to be a place bustling with noise and excitement, at this moment is quiet to the point of being strange. All this, only because of the lady seated at the high chair.
Although on the body is a pa.s.sionate firelike robe, but from the lady's entire body emits an appalling coldness. A pair of eyes that seemed to have pa.s.sed through ice, coolly glances at the people in the a.s.sembly hall.
Yin Luo's entire body is soaked in blood. Without Yue Ran's support, she can only lay on the floor. Struggling to keep her head up, she looked towards the high chair at that face that had not yet shown even a slight wave of emotion.
"Lord Honor, Yin....Yin Luo....has come back!"
Yan Xi gave no response. In her eyes, it seems that there isn't even her reflection. She merely sits there on the throne. However, it is Uncle Fu who stands at the side who frowns.
"Second Master, for an entire day, just where have you gone?" In the tone, there is an apparent reproach.
Yin Luo took a glance at Uncle Fu, then turns her head to observe all around her. In the a.s.sembly hall, there are about ten people, all being those who normally interact with her Honor. From outward appearances, they seem to serve her Honor with a sworn heart. So most of the time, they are usually elsewhere, never completely able to gather together before.
How has she Yin Luo ever had such great honor, to be able to see all of them gathered together in one place at the same time.
Eyes itchy and slightly swollen, she reached her hand up, thinking that she would touch some wet droplets or such, but only saw on her hands the dried blood stains. How has she forgotten? G.o.ds do not have tears.
"Your Honor, it's Yin Luo's wrong. She should not have left the Divine Mountain without permission, to go to the Jade Pool, and even gotten involved with the Mo and Xian two realms' feud. Going into the Abyss, had even absorbed some negative energy into the body. And unfortunately, triggering the Tian Ling Zhen, is now with her life on the edge. Although this was all mines to blame, Yin Luo is low learned and cannot sustain such severe injuries. Still hoping of your Honor to, in consideration of our sisterhood, bestow me with the 'Soul Return' to overcome this obstacle!" Her words humble, yet also showing that she cherishes life more than dignity.
Everyone on site frowned, expressions showing comptempt as usual.
The lady on the high chair was still with her usual cold demeneor, not speaking, not answering. As if she hadn't heard her begging.
Although this was an expected response, Yin Luo still cannot help the surge of pain in her chest, no longer lifting her head to look towards that person up there. Undeniably, it is a face that held a certain similarity to hers, yet compared to any other, is more foreign.
As if an era of wait had pa.s.sed, a cold tone came, "The Soul Return....there is only one." Words that didn't carry a hint of warmth.
Yin Luo felt her chest constrict, her wound becoming more serious. Sprawled on the floor, holding her head, "Yin Luo knows....the Soul Return is invaluable, on the entire Divine Mountain there is only one. If used on myself....is definitely....a waste. But even though so, I am still part of the G.o.d Lineage. Right now from the G.o.d race, there is only the two of us. I hope that your Honor...would look onto our race....and save....Yin Luo's." Yin Luo tried her best, bringing her body even lower, even though she is already very low.
The person on the high chair does not speak anymore, only turning and slightly tilting her head, as if even another glance at her is intoleratable. On that beautiful face, is still a layer of ice.
"Second Master should know the use of the 'Soul Return'!" The one speaking is still Uncle Fu, "It is a Sacred Andedote pa.s.sed down by the ancestors, there is only one. The purpose is that the day when the Mo Shen reappears, if there is any misfortunate happenings, this andedote can be used to change things around. This concerns every life in the six realms, how can it be wasted in such a time!"
Is this wasting? To use it on her, it is definitely gone to waste!
"Yin Luo knows of this andedote's importance! Only to borrow it for one use, that's all I ask. If in the coming days, the Mo Shen really returns, Yin Luo is willing to use her body to bring out an andedote. To remake the 'Soul Return'."
"That won't do!" Uncle Fu said in anger, "Using a body to make the andedote, that's unheard of. Who can guarantee it will be successful? Even if possible, how to guarantee the effects...." He sudden seemed to have thought of something, upon turning his head and glancing at Yan Xi who is seated on the high chair, and discontinued his speech.
So, it is in fear that the andedote that they would get from using her to produce would be contaminated, falling short of the initial healing effects of the medicine! Yin Luo, with effort, maintained that smile on her face. At the bottom of the heart, surfaces waves of a strange taste. It's of blood, carrying an unknown bitterness. Habitally wanting to slip her hand into the bag at her side for the preserved honey pieces, but realised that she didn't have that strength.
Putting it this way it's true, how could her life be worthy for something as valuable as the 'Soul Return'?
"Yin Luo....understands!
