Chapter 7, Escape

This sentence clearly touches upon the pain of the young teeth, causing the chubby little face to droop down, while the delicate white hands also clench into fists

Standing in the clouds, he let out a cold laugh, yet within that smile lay an indescribable bitterness and anger, "Do you think your father would fight to the death with the West Sea for your demise?"

Is this your friend? The illegitimate child suddenly brightened his eyes, staring intently at the white light

Fortunately, she was somewhat familiar with Jinyushan. There was a deep ravine on the back mountain that led directly to Yaobamboo Peak behind. As long as she could hide in the ravine and escape along it, it would be much better than being a target for lightning on flat ground

"Jufeng is unwilling to come, what do you plan to do?" Bai Guang also felt troubled

Hu Chunbian shivered while giving him a glare, indeed he was the illegitimate child of his father, speaking in the same tone. At this moment, he even provoked Lai Yun, as if he didn't think dying fast enough was enough!

Although the first attack by Laiyun was grand in scale, it failed to breach the barrier of the Jishi Bottle. Hu Chun and the illegitimate child, while terrified, felt a slight sense of relief.

Hu Chun suddenly felt a jolt and immediately turned to run towards the back mountain. She was somewhat worried about Qing Ya, and when she looked back, she saw him surrounded by several bolts of lightning, dodging left and right in a state of utter disarray. Even in such a predicament, he was still able to remind her to escape, and this small act made it difficult for Hu Chun to abandon him. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and ran back, grabbing the back of Qing Ya's collar and pulling him along as they fled.

Your Highness—" Hu Chun smiled stiffly, her mind in a daze, and the polite words came out naturally, "You have come in person, what brings you here?"

Hu Chun saw that it was not good, leaped into the air, and before he could land in the ditch, a thunderbolt struck the edge of the ditch. Instantly, sand and stones flew, and gray smoke filled the air. Hu Chun and the Qingya wolf fell into the bottom of the ditch in a disheveled manner, pushed by the shockwave and rolling out for an unknown distance like a wheel

A child meandered down the mountain path, walking quite leisurely with his short arms and legs. Hu Chun glanced at him sideways, wondering if this was the illegitimate son of Hui Ya. He looked small, about the size of a two or three-year-old human, chubby and rosy, and particularly adorable, no wonder Hui Ya doted on him

Do you have a way? Hu Chun felt a glimmer of hope

Old Eight, Old Eight

She glanced behind the white light, but there was no sign of the torch peak. Her heart, which had already been half-cold, was now completely frozen. It seemed that no one could rescue her from the hands of Huiya. With her abilities, how could she possibly contend with Huiya? Should she seek refuge with Lady Yun?

A figure appeared out of thin air, dignified and imposing, with a beautiful face devoid of any expression, instilling a sense of dread.

Hu Chun smiled coldly; she did not intend to mock anyone, but rather felt a chill in her heart, her smile stiff and bitter. Is it really nothing? Becoming a concubine of Huiya, in the eyes of demons, or perhaps in the eyes of earth immortals like Ju Feng, it is indeed not a significant matter

Hu Chun had never seen the world and did not know what it was. The illegitimate child, however, turned pale, screamed, "Pulao Bone!" While shouting, he also retreated, collapsing onto the ground in a panic, trembling as he said, "My life is over."

Qingya had slightly calmed down and gritted her teeth, saying: "Damn woman, you actually borrowed the bones of Pulao from the West Sea! If you harm my life today, my father will surely hold a grudge against you and the West Sea, leading to a situation where both sides suffer. What is the point of this?"

The white light let out a scream, frightened to reveal its true form, and scurried into the grass, disappearing in the blink of an eye. She was not the target of Lanyun, and Lanyun did not pay her any mind, allowing her to escape.

The child also looked at Hu Chun with a sidelong glance, his expression mature beyond his years, certainly not that of a child. "Do you want to go out too?" he asked, his extremely youthful and adorable face bearing an uncharacteristic melancholy, appearing quite strange, as if an old spirit had taken residence in a child's body

Hu Chun was so frightened that he kept retreating, almost stepping on the illegitimate child, who he did not know had hidden behind her at some point.

It is Lady Yun.

She had no intention of conversing with a few lowly little demons. As soon as she finished her command, she raised her hand and unleashed a bolt of thunder. The immense electrical charge struck the barrier, causing fireballs to scatter in all directions, with a continuous crackling sound resembling an explosion.

Lai Yun seemed taken aback by how familiar the vixen was, and did not realize the gravity of the situation, still smiling at this critical moment. She paused for a moment and said with doubled menace: "I have come to take your lives!"

Jufeng said, "The white light stopped outside the barrier, gasping for breath. He doesn't need to come; you will be fine..."

Whoever has died means nothing to him; it is merely death. You, your mother, and this little fox... In three to five days, he will find someone new and forget all of you completely

If I had a way, I would have left here long ago. The child sneered coldly, his eyes filled with mockery towards Hu Chun's intelligence, which greatly displeased Hu Chun

A round-faced girl ran over, panting, and it was Bai Guang who had come to deliver the news. Because she had only caught a glimpse of her last time, Hu Chun always felt that this person looked unfamiliar; if it weren't for her round face, he wouldn't have recognized her at all

"Silence." Laiyun scoffed disdainfully, "In front of all the demons, he abandons me to seek you. If I were to spare your life, where would my dignity be?"

It makes no difference whether he comes or not

Hu Chun's smile was peculiar, a mixture of sorrow, anger, fear, resentment, and pleading. She looked up at Lai Yun and said in a mournful voice: "Your Highness, as fellow tragic souls, killing us will not change anything. As long as you grant us a way to survive, I..." She glanced at Qing Ya, deciding not to involve him after all; he was blood-related to Hui Ya, how could she distance herself from that? "I swear, I will never appear before Hui Ya again, I will never show myself in Jia Ling again, I..." She decided not to involve him after all; he was blood-related to Hui Ya, how could she distance herself from that? "I swear, I will never appear before Hui Ya again, I will never show myself in Jia Ling again, I..."

Lai Yun did not seem surprised or disheartened. Holding a drum in one hand, he waved the other hand in the air, revealing a long bone that resembled a human femur, yet its texture was akin to that of stone, reflecting a faint glimmer in the sunlight

The fox was inherently fast, and although the human form was somewhat lacking, it could still be considered to have developed motor skills. Hu Chun ran in a zigzag pattern, successfully dodging several powerful lightning strikes from Lai Yun. As they approached the edge of the ditch, Lai Yun became furious, pounding the Lai Yun drum urgently. Three bolts of lightning combined in the air, charging towards them like a fireball.

She forcefully swung, throwing the green tooth onto her back, commanding him: "Hold my neck tightly!"

This is the legendary invisibility technique, isn't it? It is not surprising for a fairy to cast spells on mortals, but to deceive the eyes of one's own kind requires profound cultivation. Hu Chun has never been able to truly hate Lai Yun, even though she has killed many, as she was once her idol. Moreover, upon reflection, Lai Yun's situation is quite tragic; not only did she choose such a coarse husband, but she also constantly faces betrayal. When Hui Ya speaks of her in a derogatory tone, Hu Chun feels a sense of injustice on her behalf.

Hu Chun still wanted to plead for mercy, but all he could hear was the booming of drums. The heavens and the earth changed color, instantly transforming from a clear blue sky to a scene of howling winds, reminiscent of the appearance of a celestial deity. The drums continued to sound one after another, and the sky darkened to the point where the surroundings became invisible. A wind began to rise, and with a crack, thunder struck down from the heavens, following the increasing rhythm of the drums. The thunder struck nearby in succession, causing the ground to erupt in flying sand.

Hu Chun and Bai Guang looked around in a daze, only hearing the voice without seeing the person. However, the coldness in the voice made one feel very uneasy. Hu Chun glanced behind the tree several times, realizing that it was impossible for anyone to be hiding there. She noticed that the illegitimate child had a pale complexion, continuously retreating, displaying a look of panic as if disaster was imminent.

Lai Yun gave the illegitimate child an appreciative glance, and the person rose into the air, hovering at a height of ten feet, and said lightly: "Qing Ya, I must commend your discernment. The Pu Lao bone paired with the Lai Yun drum possesses a power of thunder and lightning several times stronger. Not to mention a single Jishi bottle, even the Bodhisattva's jade bottle made of mutton fat cannot save you."

A voice said coldly

The barrier has been broken, run quickly!" shouted Qingya, who was small and being blown around by the wind, tumbling head over heels.

Neither of the two adults paid any attention to his question

Hu Chun then realized the seriousness of the problem, but how could the Laiyun Drum be in the hands of Lady Laiyun? Wasn't it given to Huiya to subdue demons in the East Sea? ... Unless ... This is fundamentally a trap set by Laiyun, and the one taken by Huiya is most likely a counterfeit.

Hu Chun sat under the willow tree by the mountain gate, waiting. She did not care whether the crow knew she was seeking help. From the moment the crow knocked her unconscious, she and the crow had effectively fallen out. Although it was not very apparent from their expressions—one was a genuine smile and the other a false one—they both appeared quite polite to each other.

The barrier of the Healing Bottle held for a moment, but with a thunderous crash, it shattered. Hu Chun raised her hand to shield herself from the wind and sand, unable to see how the barrier was destroyed. She only saw a bottle falling from the sky, shattering beside her and nearly hitting her.
