Chapter 127: Chapter 115 Cooperation

"Do you know where that crazy woman’s body is?"

"Um, I have some guesses."

"...."

The Saint’s Remnant Soul revealed a thoughtful look.

As a powerful entity who had come a long way, he was acutely aware that the biggest chasm between Mortal Transcendence and the Primordial was not the Origin Qi or physical constitution, but the domain of the Dao, a place of mysterious and ghostly unpredictability.

If that crazy woman couldn’t use her Dao domain...

A mentally unstable First Grade undergoing Mortal Transcendence, that girl named Tianyan, with the might of the Yantian Art, should be able to fight the crazy woman to a mutual defeat.

Then, by leveraging the Formation, it wouldn’t be impossible to kill that crazy woman.

With a feasible plan in mind, the Saint’s Remnant Soul felt slightly relieved and gave the young man a deep look, saying,

"Kid, tell me the truth, what are your chances?"

Xu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Fifty-fifty, I guess."

The Saint’s Remnant Soul rolled his eyes.

This kid, it’s like he didn’t say anything at all.

Xu Yuan, however, was rather helpless; what he said was the truth.

Many things required risking one’s life, and the probabilities were inherently fifty-fifty.

After a pause, he asked with a smile,

"Old Man Luo, are you going to help or not?"

"...."

The Saint’s Remnant Soul was so frustrated he felt itchy in his teeth. He wanted not to help, wishing the heart demon knot and prohibitions would just untie themselves.

After a long while,

The Saint’s Remnant Soul uttered only two words:

"As you wish."

Seeing this, Xu Yuan slightly smiled and glanced at Ran Qingmo who was beside him:

"Alright, Ran Qingmo, let’s discuss our plan for what comes next."

"..."

"..."

"..."

...

A quarter of an hour later,

Relinking his Will-spirit into the Sky-Peering Formation, Xu Yuan quickly located the battle site of Tianyan and the woman in red.

The situation was as before; Tianyan stood her ground, acting as an artillery battery, while the crazed woman in red flitted about within her own Dao domain. The only difference seemed to be that the young girl Tianyan’s cold face had gained a bit more color.

Seeing this scene, Xu Yuan glanced at Ran Qingmo:

"Remember what I just said."

Ran Qingmo, also connected to the Sky-Peering Formation, nodded slightly,

"Um...."

After a pause, she added,

"Be careful..."

"Don’t worry."

Xu Yuan chuckled, and then with a deep thought, a flash of white light passed, and his figure disappeared at the gateway of the mountain.

Regaining consciousness, Xu Yuan looked around.

This was a palatial hall, wide and magnificent, with a high platform standing at the end of the hall, below which sat hundreds of decaying meditation cushions facing a large Formation that was exerting an impressive pressure inside the hall.

Xu Yuan roughly surmised that this place was likely the Dao ground where the elders of the Qionghua Sect elucidated the Tao and resolved doubts in the past.

Without any pause, he headed at full speed towards the entrance of the hall.

This was the closest transmission point to Tianyan and the crazed woman in red.

Due to the Saintess’s soul key, the formations within the hall did not obstruct him much, and he ran smoothly out of the hall.

And as soon as he was out,

Xu Yuan immediately felt that the Origin Qi between heaven and earth was extremely chaotic. Looking up, his pupils suddenly constricted.

A mass of pink mist pressed down on the lower half of the sky like a covering shroud. Without the enhancement of the Sky-Peering Formation, he couldn’t see the situation inside. He could only see the streams of residual energy shooting out, reducing the once flourishing palaces to flat ground!

The emitted pressure made Xu Yuan subconsciously clench his fists and stop in his tracks.

"Xu kid," the Saint’s Remnant Soul suddenly spoke.

"What’s up?" Xu Yuan took a deep breath.

"It’s not too late for you to turn back now."

Observing Xu Yuan’s halt, the Saint’s Remnant Soul immediately began persuading earnestly, "Given the scale of their fight, this already decaying mountain-protecting Formation will undoubtedly suffer further loss and will probably break within a few months. There’s no need for you to risk...."

"Do you think I would believe you?" Xu Yuan interrupted the old man’s words.

The Saint’s Remnant Soul spoke earnestly, "I’m not joking."

"Heh," Xu Yuan.

The Saint’s Remnant Soul clicked his tongue, "Tsk... Really, if I had known you were so eager to go out, I wouldn’t have told you that the Formation could last that long."

Xu Yuan laughed and said in a low voice,

"Enough, remember to protect my soul."

The Saint’s Remnant Soul was silent for a moment, then asked,

"Xu kid, are you certain that crazy woman won’t attack you?"

Although he had repeatedly asked before coming, he was still somewhat uneasy.

The fact that a single Saintess’s soul key could prevent that crazy woman from attacking him willingly was so bizarre he had never seen anything like it in his long life.

Xu Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded,

"Most likely not. Appearing so close, she should have already noticed me."

The Saint’s Remnant Soul seemingly resigned himself and said,

"The old man concedes. Go ahead..."

Upon this, Xu Yuan chuckled and, with a flash of his body, quickly flew towards the mass of pink mist in the sky.

In an instant,

Xu Yuan’s brow shimmered with a cherry blossom mark as he arrived at the edge of the pink mist.

If not for Old Man Luo using Soul Power to protect him, merely the vibrations in the air here would have been enough to shake him to death a hundred times over.

Calming his mind and circling the pink mist several times, Xu Yuan’s heart finally settled.

The crazy woman not only did not attack him proactively, but she even intentionally controlled some of the stray shockwaves that came from the mist, altering their course.

Hesitating for a moment, Xu Yuan tentatively pressed his palm gently against the mist.

Instantly,

A surge of confusion and affection bombarded his mind, but it was immediately washed away by a cool wave sweeping that stray emotion clean.

First came a hand, then a foot, half a body, and the whole body, As Xu Yuan gradually entered into the pink fog.

No sooner had he stepped in than his heart suddenly froze.

A woman appeared abruptly in front of him.

Clad in a red dress with her hair disheveled, he could only faintly make out her lifeless eyes.

They looked at each other, silent.

Amid the surrounding whispers,

a faint murmur like the buzz of a mosquito entered Xu Yuan’s ears.

"...thank you..."

It was very light, and without the enhancement of Soul Power, Xu Yuan wouldn’t have been able to hear it clearly.

But this unexpected voice immediately put Xu Yuan at ease.

Thank you.

It seemed his judgment was correct.

However, if this woman in the red dress could communicate, perhaps there would be no need to proceed with the original plan.

Without any hesitation, Xu Yuan slightly cupped his hands towards the madwoman in the red dress and said softly,

"Senior, may I borrow your Sect Master Token..."

"Kill you!!! Want the token? I’ll kill you... can’t... kill!!!"

Before he could finish speaking, a surge of killing intent flickered in the eyes of the madwoman in the red dress, and then her figure disappeared from his sight.

Following that.

Boom!!!!

Simultaneously, a violent tremor came from afar, Xu Yuan raised his hand to block the wind pressure, his robe flapping loudly, while he sighed softly in his heart.

It appeared that the madwoman indeed couldn’t communicate.

After a two-second silence,

a slightly breathy, pleasant female voice came through:

"Xu Changtian, what... haha... what are you doing here?"

It was Tianyan.

This woman still had the strength to communicate with him.

Xu Yuan glanced around, but saw neither Tianyan nor the Qionghua-like structures made of fog. However, he did see those lightly-dressed, gracefully dancing ladies, with their slender waists and twisting figures...

Very lifelike.

Fortunately, these ladies seemed completely oblivious to him, Xu Yuan; forming from the fog, they flew off in one direction.

Following these seductive women composed of fog, Xu Yuan spotted Tianyan’s petite figure.

The distance was considerable, but with the enhancement of Soul Power, Xu Yuan could see her quite clearly.

Tianyan’s golden eyes were like those of a deity, with halos swirling and a faint golden light surrounding her, keeping the pink fog at bay.

After a moment’s hesitation, Xu Yuan transmitted his voice with the enhancement of the Saint’s Remnant Soul,

"Hey, little sis, do you want to live or die?"

Tianyan paused for a few seconds, and her voice came again:

"Why... why doesn’t that crazy woman attack you?"

She didn’t understand why this crazy woman wasn’t attacking him, especially since Xu Changtian had willingly entered the arena.

Xu Yuan stood at the edge of the fog, watching the scene play out, and chuckled:

"Cut the crap and answer my question."

Boom!!!

No sooner had he finished speaking than another vibration came from the other side, and the golden light around Tianyan visibly shook.

Tianyan’s voice transmitted:

"You... huh... what do you mean?"

"I can save you," Xu Yuan said earnestly.

"You... you’re willing to save me?"

Tianyan’s voice sounded somewhat amused, but after a two second pause, she said softly,

"What... what do you want me to do?"

Xu Yuan smiled at her words; he enjoyed talking to intelligent people.

He retrieved a jade box from the Sumeru Ring, wrapped it in Soul Power, and tossed it towards Tianyan.

Under the precise control of the Saint’s Remnant Soul, the box quickly reached Tianyan’s hands.

Tianyan bit her lip and said softly,

"This... this is the Enchantress Divine Flower? What do you intend to do?"

"Eat it."

"Ah?" said Tianyan.

Xu Yuan’s voice was calm:

"The effect of the Enchantress Divine Flower takes an hour to manifest; in that time, I have a way to kill that madwoman."

To kill the woman in the red dress, he needed Tianyan’s help, but if he broke the formation outright, Tianyan would likely escape once free from its constraints. He had to tie her down before that could happen.

"No... Impossibly!"

Tianyan outright refused while panting.

The Enchantress Divine Flower, a bewitching herbal essence; eating it directly would affect her, even in a normal state, let alone now that she had been enchanted by the madwoman’s formation.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan shrugged and started walking away,

"Well then, little sis, enjoy yourself. Goodbye."

As Tianyan fended off the relentless attacks of the woman in the red dress, she watched the bastard walk away, fell silent for two seconds, clenched her fists, and exclaimed,

"How can I trust that you want to kill her?"

"....."

Xu Yuan stopped in his tracks and replied with a chuckle through the transmission,

"I want something from her body."

"How... How can I trust you?"

"You don’t have to trust me. After all, she’s not attacking me. If worst comes to worst, I’ll just forget about the object and let my dad come fetch it later,"

Xu Yuan’s tone was carefree, as if the matter didn’t concern him at all:

"I’ll give you five seconds to decide."

"Five, four, one...."

"Wait!"

Tianyan’s voice, filled with indignant teeth-clenching:

"I... I’ll eat it!"
