Chapter 1103: Upset a Plan
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
Shang Ying Yue couldn't guess Shi Yan's thoughts or his plan in mind. She couldn't check the commotions around like Shi Yan so she could only stay quietly here and wait for him.
Shi Yan had left for one hour.
She wasn't worried about anything unexpected happening or his situation. After she had confirmed that Shi Yan could still use his Soul Consciousness to sense around this ancient continent, people would find it hard to attack him unless he wanted to see trouble.
Of course, Shi Yan wasn't that kind of impulsive person.
She thought that Shi Yan had changed his mind. She didn't know how important the Seven-colored Demonic Flower was to Shi Yan. Thus, she just assumed that Shi Yan had fled because he knew that he couldn't resist Bai Hao and Mia. He had just made an excuse to ditch her here.
The more Shang Ying Yue thought about this possibility, the more likely it appeared to her. Her face gradually turned colder and harsher. She gritted her teeth and cursed.
The Bai family and her force were like water and fire. Through several hundred years, they had fought a lot. Her grandfather was killed in a raid led by the Bai family and the God Clan. Earlier, her mother had told her to be aware of the Bai family. If she had a chance, she should try her best to attack them.
She still remembered how her loving grandfather had treated her. After he returned home from the war every time, he would give her some gifts that would make her excited for a long time. When she was a little girl, her grandfather would hold her on his lap or his shoulder, play with her, and take her flying up to the blue sky with cotton clouds...
She'd been mourning for him since the day she knew he was killed. At that time, she had cried for ten days. Her tears were a chain of broken pearls.
At that time, she was small and her realm wasn't profound. She was at King God Realm only. She didn't have the capacity to take revenge for her grandfather. However, right at that moment, she had crossed her heart that she would use all of her strength to smash the Bai family.
Years later, she knew how strong the Bai family was and the relationship between the Bai family and the God Clan. They used to fight the Bai family with victories and losses. One time, the Bai family had ambushed her and her brother, Shang Qiu. Also in that battle, Shang Qiu's soul altar got damaged after he rescued her...
Shang Ying Yue was grinding her white teeth, her beautiful eyes flaring with a cold aura.
She had made up her mind. Even if no one wanted to help her, she would hide and wait for the right chance to strike the Bai family hard.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The fluttering sounds of clothes moving in the wind came together with a brutal aura that approached her.
Shang Ying Yue's bold brows slightly furrowed. She hid silently in the dark and waited.
Her eyes brightened as she retrieved a radiant light cage that was covering her body entirely. She appeared and exhaled, "What did you do?"
"Helped you deal with the warriors of the Bai family." A strange flame flickered above Shi Yan head as he was gliding like a ghost towards Shang Ying Yue. His thoughts changed and he retrieved the co-soul and his soul altar. He spoke to Shang Ying Yue, "Help me conceal my body. I'm going to take you to see something fun."
While talking, he didn't mind his manner in approaching Shang Ying Yue. "I know you have a special secret treasure."
"I'm not sure I can hide two people."
Seeing him come close, Shang Ying Yue looked reluctant. She hurried to scream, "Stop!"
A part of her creamy hand flashed a light of beautiful jade. An emerald green color burst out a faint icy blue halo. It looked like a massive bowl set upside down to cover her graceful, sexy body. The blue light quietly became transparent and then disappeared.
Shang Ying Yue's aura and body disappeared altogether.
"There's still room for you, but you aren't allowed to stand too close to me," Shang Ying Yue said coldly from nowhere.
"Understood."
Shi Yan nodded and got inside the cage, his face natural and calm.
People couldn't see any difference from the outside. Inside the deep blue cage, touching the barrier of blue sea water felt like touching ice.
The cage wasn't huge. When Shi Yan got inside, he had to stand shoulder by shoulder with Shang Ying Yue. There was a narrow gap between them. He could inhale a faint orchid aroma from Shang Ying Yue's body. Also, he could feel her soft but slightly cold shoulder.
A blue electric arc flashed on Shang Ying Yue's shoulder. A blue electric arrow made a straight line that separated Shi Yan and Shang Ying Yue. "Don't stick to me!" hissed Shang Ying Yue.
Shrugging, Shi Yan mumbled, "Who's interested in you?"
"Hey!" Shang Ying Yue suddenly turned around, shooting him a glare. "What do you want me to watch that's so fun? If you lie to me, I won't leave you alone!"
She took several deep breaths in her anger, which made her thrust out her mesmerizing, breathtaking breasts.
"We're just the audience."
Squinting and looking at the area ahead of them, Shi Yan's eyes were like ice sabers. He muttered, "I have no feeling for people who shake hands with the God Clan. If I get a chance to do evil deeds, well, I won't let it slip away. It's not just their team that will come to this ancient continent, anyway..."
"You mean... you found another team?" Shang Ying Yue's graceful body shook. Her mouths curved in fear. "You want to provoke a battle with them?"
"We don't need to provoke anyone," Shi Yan smiled evilly. "People will fight for benefits in this ancient continent. Strong warriors can't avoid disputes here. Especially when Bai Hao's team seems to have found something over there."
"You're despicable."
"Thanks for the compliment."
-----------------------------
That deep hole was dozens of mu large, which looked dark and bottomless. Many dirty, discomposed leaves were swirling inside that hole.
It was caused by Shi Yan's attack when he was chasing after Sha Zhao. The deep pit was filled with filthy water and mud while grass and leaves were floating on the surface. There was nothing to appraise in this area.
However, there were five warriors standing and watching by the edge of the hole.
Bai Hao and the three warriors of the Bai family frowned. They didn't know why Mia wanted to come here or what she was doing.
A delicate, hexagonal crystal glowing in clear red light was held in her green onion-like fingers. She was fondling that crystal, her eyes bright.
A long moment later, the glowing red lozenge crystal shot out a rainbow light from its six points. The six beams of light were straight like swords, but they all combined into one muddy point in that swampy hole. The energy of the rainbow light hit on that point. Something inside exploded.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Strange noises started to hiss from that area, which was unpleasant to the ears.
The four people of Bai Hao's group were gloomy. They felt it was very grating and it made their scalps numb as if someone was using a sharp tool to drill into their soul altars. The four of them felt so uncomfortable.
However, Mia looked excited as her bright eyes lit up. "Something is there, indeed!"
A blue light suddenly shot out from the point that the rainbow light was illuminating and smashed the rainbow light. The hexagonal crystal in Mia's hand grumbled as if it was about to shatter.
Mia was both happy and frightened. She hurried to put her unique, energy-sensing device into her Fantasy Sky Ring. She was so delighted to gaze at that blue light.
The hexagonal crystal could sense strange crystals and other precious treasures that had strong energy. The stronger the energy that object had, the fiercer her crystal would react. Recently, her crystal started slowly breaking. She understood that no matter what it was, the thing deep in that muddy ground would have absolutely powerful energy.
Mia's eyes had a divine light that was as bright as a torch. She smiled happily, "You guys, go and check it out."
She turned her head and bent her body slightly to request Bai Hao's group to help her investigate that area.
Bai Hao changed his complexion a little bit, but the other three were obviously enraged.
Exploring the unknown objects would be accompanied with unforeseen dangers. If she didn't do it herself, she knew that it was dangerous. She had ordered Bai Hao's team like a master to make them bear the danger for her.
"So? Didn't your family's Head tell you anything?" Mia was still smiling but her eyes were getting colder.
Bai Hao was shaken. He recalled what the family Head told him. He sweated and hurriedly replied, "Don't worry. We know what to do!"
He nodded to the other three.
The three of them had reluctant faces. They sighed inwardly before gathering their energy to investigate the area where the blue light shot out.
---------------------------
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Ear-splitting noises came from another corner of the swamp. Wu Bai with the big hammer and the gold armor was running like an imposing mountain. Every time he stomped the ground, it sounded like they were creating earthquakes.
Wu Feng was like a ghost that smiled gently and waved his fan slightly while following his younger brother.
"We got good luck anyway. We just got the Hundred Kalpa Soul Thread not long ago. Now, something good is coming up. Haha, da-ge, you say, what do we do this time?" Wu Bei shouted violently as if he wasn't afraid of anyone.
Of course, we have to identify what it is. Then, we will decide what to do," smiled Wu Feng.
While they were talking, they passed Shi Yan and Shang Ying Yue who were concealing their bodies. They dashed towards Bai Hao's group.
-------------------
Inside the light cage that the others couldn't detect, Shang Ying Yue's delicate face had a gleam of surprise. "Why did you get them here?"
"They were the nearest group. And they're the strongest." Shi Yan explained naturally. "Those two brothers have the competence to fight against the four warriors of the Bai family. Although they are all at Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm, those two brothers are much stronger."
"Of course, the Wu brothers of Prosaic Star Area aren't the vagabonds." Shang Ying Yue's eyes were strange.
"The Wu family? Is this Wu family strong too? How is it compared to the Bai family?"
"One level stronger!"
Shi Yan was surprised.
"Are we just staying here or what?" Shang Ying Yue lifted her head. Her energy surged in her body as if she wanted to join the battle.
"I have no objection if you want to come close to watch the battle. Anyway, the precondition is making sure they don't detect you. Are you sure they won't?" Shi Yan looked placid. He spoke faintly, "We can join the battle too, but we have to wait until they determine the winner first. Can you do that?"
"Of course, I can."
"Alright, we're going there. I'm also curious as to what they have found."
