CBGC - ch144.3

3/4

In the Dual Realm Mountain.

The demonic energy surges as Zhang Zhizi sits cross-legged on the ground. The Beauty Scroll is placed on his knee, only partially unrolled, exposing the first beauty, Bai Lu.

She rolls up the Beauty Scroll, suspending the other end in front of her. Meanwhile, she lies on the scroll, lazily gazing into the distance. Occasionally, she lightly shakes a feathered fan, sighing from time to time. Now and then, she turns her head to glance at Zhang Zhizi, gently planting a kiss on his lips, and absorbing a wisp of black energy for herself.

Who would have thought, the demonic creature who competed with the little master for demonic energy in the Immortal Palace is dead. Now, a new formidable opponent has emerged, and this opponent is exceptionally strong…

Bai Lu's fan shakes twice. She wonders, why wasn’t it Yan Yuqing who found the Beauty Scroll? If it were him, it's likely that he would advance even faster than Zhang Zhizi and be even more enthralling. While shaking the fan, Bai Lu thinks about Yan Yuqing wielding the sword. As she thinks, certain fragments suddenly flash in her mind, which jolts her primordial spirit.

The man holding a broken sword, why does he give her a sense of familiarity, making her heart race. In the midst of Bai Lu's confusion, she suddenly hears a miserable scream. Shortly after, the scroll she had folded as a makeshift table suddenly unfolds, almost hitting her chin.

"Seventh sister, what's wrong with you? What kind of trouble have you stirred up again?"

On the painting, Xi Guang‘s expression is one of pain. She groans and says, "My body, my body, ah!"

The primordial spirit is intact, and if the body experiences intense pain, the primordial spirit would also sense it. At this moment, Xi Guang touches herself from the armpits down to the waist and abdomen. Then she lowers her head to look at her ankle. She has a persistent feeling as if it's being split open. Although it's not particularly painful, she knows it's that bitch who has taken possession of her body, she's currently ruining it.

She has never allowed herself to suffer the slightest harm. She cannot tolerate any flaws on her body. However, now, her body has been damaged by someone! Xi Guang lets out a low growl from her throat, like a wild beast. Dark energy begins to envelop her entire body, and in the next moment, a figure actually drifts out from the painting. The posture and appearance can vaguely be discerned, and shortly after, it comes out from the painting.

"Seventh sister, you..."

"Having a physical body is truly great. You've actually been stimulated too much, causing you to take form ahead of schedule."

At this moment, Zhang Zhizi also opens his eyes. He feels that his strength has increased. Unexpectedly, under fortuitous circumstances, another Beauty on the painting has been activated, and she is even more vivid than Bai Lu. After all, this one's physical body genuinely exists. He reaches out and touches Xi Guang's cheek, gesturing for her to sit on his lap.

With teary eyes, Xi Guang leans softly against Zhang Zhizi, "Master, I want to kill her."

"Good, once we're out, we'll kill her immediately," Zhang Zhizi says with a sinister smile.

But at this moment, a voice rings out, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Yan Yuqing stands in the shadows, holding a broken sword. He looks at Xi Guang, who is sitting on Zhang Zhizi's lap, and a cold light bursts from his reddened eyes.

Xi Guang turns her head, her face tilted to the side, and she murmurs, "I am Xi Guang, the only Xi Guang— it’s my body."

This demon is acquainted with Su Tingyun, the woman who seized her body. He seems to have some feelings for her. At that time, even though they entered the demon realm, they could see the outside world clearly. She distinctly saw this man place a wooden carving in that bitch's hand. Previously, she thought she could only exist within the painting, but now that she can take form, she must capture this man and make him serve her.

Xi Guang is very beautiful, and adept at using her own beauty. Otherwise, how else did she become the indelible White Moonlight in the hearts of many high-level male cultivators? She appears aloof and stunning in public, but in private, she is in fact as gentle and lovely as water.

"Your body?"

Yan Yuqing instantly understands that Su Tingyun can use that body because the original owner is not dead, but is still trapped in the demonic treasure, the Beauty Scroll.

"Yes." Xi Guang lowers her head slightly, responding softly, her voice carrying a hint of grievance that evokes sympathy from Zhang Zhizi. A teardrop rolls down her eye, and within the dark and misty surroundings of the Dual Realm Mountain, the crystal-clear tear shines like a night pearl. Bai Lu hides her face with the fan, not exposing the other, but she gives a disdainful hum in her mind. If there's one person she dislikes the most in the Beauty Scroll, it's Xi Guang. Indeed, jealousy is the most detestable thing.

Unexpectedly, the man across from them not only shows no sympathy, but directly swings his sword, aiming towards Xi Guang.

"So if you die, it will completely belong to her." Yan Yuqing says coldly.

While he still retains some memories, he decides to resolve this potential trouble for her. Perhaps not long from now, he will forget everything! The broken sword in his hand hums, the sound echoing in his ears like a beast's roar, like a cold mocking laughter.

"Yan Yuqing, we each mind our own business, like well water does not interfere with a river. Are you going to cross the line today?" The Beauty Scroll stands upright, blocking the sword's momentum. But a slight tremor runs through the scroll's body as the broken sword leaves a gash.

Although Bai Lu is shocked, her face remains relatively composed. She swings the feather fan, ready to attack. However, Xi Guang's eyes widen, pointing at Yan Yuqing with a pained look on her face, "It's you, it's you..." With both hands clutching her head, she looks incredibly pained. This leaves Bai Lu somewhat puzzled. Just as the broken sword is about to strike again, Bai Lu releases countless feather arrows, and then the Beauty Scroll wraps up Zhang Zhizi, directly leaving the area.
