Chapter 317: Chapter 251: Whirlwind (34)

Within the abandoned building that was constantly overflowing with astonishing sinister aura.

A woman with skin as white as snow and long black hair slowly approached the Evil-cutting Sect Master.

The woman’s eyes were as clear and bright as autumn waters, her delicate eyebrows arched like a painting, and she was dressed in gorgeous ancient palace garb, with billowing sleeves that danced like flowing clouds and water.

But such luxurious attire and an attractive appearance were out of place in this late-night abandoned building.

Especially the woman’s extremely cold face showed not a trace of human vitality.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master was filled with confusion and caution as he looked at the woman before him.

He thought to himself, "Is this woman Lin Xing’s Master, Bai Yiyi?"

As someone who had been in the modern era for some time, the Evil-cutting Sect Master had also started using a smartphone, learned to use the internet, and even maintained accounts on various platforms.

During this period, Lin Xing had become extremely popular online. Consequently, videos of Bai Yiyi had also become trending on many platforms, and the Evil-cutting Sect naturally recognized the woman the moment he saw her.

But after greeting her, the Evil-cutting Sect Master sensed something was off.

Through his Evil Suppressing Magic Eye, he saw that this woman before him contained intense sinister aura within her body.

And the Evil-cutting Sect Master distinctly remembered meeting Lin Xing and Bai Yiyi on Da Guangming Mountain last time.

Although at that time, they both had concealed their identities and hid their faces with human skin masks, he had later learned their real identities.

He clearly remembered that neither Lin Xing nor Bai Yiyi should have had much sinister aura within them.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master’s mind suddenly went on alert, "You’re not Bai Yiyi? Who exactly are you?"

Behind him, a landscape emerged, and a nine-colored ring of fire violently surged out, piercing through the surrounding darkness and bringing an astonishing heatwave to the corridor, as if turning winter into summer.

At that moment, the weakened Tian Jizi spoke from behind him, "This is a puppet of the Evil Sect. You’re no match for it."

"I will buy you time. Take the opportunity to escape and get word out of here..."

A gleam flashed in the eyes of the Evil-cutting Sect Master as the rings of fire behind him transformed into spirals of flames, fully enveloping his body.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master looked at the woman and said, "You’re from the Evil Sect? The Evil Sect actually has puppets?"

Hearing what the Evil-cutting Sect Master said, the puppet in front of him cocked her head and stated coldly, "Evil Sect... We have never called ourselves that, but indeed, some people refer to us by that name."

In an instant, nine rays of fire transformed into weapons and armor, enveloping the Evil-cutting Sect Master from head to toe.

"That’s good," the Evil-cutting Sect Master, clutching the giant flame sword in his hand, revealed a fierce smile: "My Evil-cutting Sect exists specifically to deal with you."

The bursting firelight immediately swallowed the entire corridor, the dazzling flame illuminating the night sky and reflecting the surrounding streets and buildings in a reddish glow.

The Evil-cutting Sect Master watched the puppet he had blasted away with a single sword swing in the firelight and laughed, "Evil Sect scoundrel, where do you think you’re running to!"

Just as he was about to give chase with his sword, he found the puppet he had just blasted away had already charged back, accompanied by over ten identical puppets.

"So many?!"

Seeing this scene, the Evil-cutting Sect Master’s expression changed. He sent out a fire dragon with a swing of his sword and then turned to run.

The Evil-cutting Sect had extensive experience fighting the Evil Sect.

Among these experiences, one important rule was, if you can fight, you plunder; if you can’t, you run.

And as the Sect Master of the Evil-cutting Sect, he was especially adept at escaping from the Evil Sect.

Tian Jizi watched the Evil-cutting Sect Master charging towards him and hastily supported his weak body, saying, "Don’t bother taking me..."

Watching the Evil-cutting Sect Master stride past him without pausing for even a moment, Tian Jizi’s face revealed a helpless smile.

"That’s fine."

"Hopefully, he can get the message out."

The more than ten puppets also surged past where Tian Jizi was and chased after the fleeing direction of the Evil-cutting Sect Master.

Tian Jizi’s gaze continued to peer into the darkness of the corridor’s depths, where an indistinct figure seemed to emerge.

The figure said, "Shall we continue then?"

Tian Jizi sighed, "You’re too hasty and chaotic, acting so recklessly will only make things worse."

The figure coldly replied, "Tian Jizi, don’t act as though you’re considering our well-being. You have never truly been one of us."

"Think about your modern world instead."

"Making this world normal again—hasn’t that always been your goal?"

"What we’re going to do tonight is precisely what you’ve always dreamt of doing. So why would you try to stop us?"

At the same time, the sound of police sirens was constantly heard in the distance, getting closer and closer to the abandoned building.

"There’s not much time left, let’s conclude this quickly."

...

On the hospital bed.

The swordswoman blankly stared at the ceiling, continuously feeling waves of pain from her right eye socket.

Seated beside her, the Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect mournfully said, "You’ve been so badly injured this time, how will you still fight Lin Xing?"

The Swordswoman touched her bandaged right eye and said blankly, "What exactly happened?"

Her remaining left eye stared intently at the Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect, as if some kind of crazy killing intent was gathering within it, "Why am I missing an eye?"

"Why don’t I remember anything?"

"Did you mess with my memory?"

The Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect sighed and said, "I really didn’t touch your memory."

"It was you who suddenly started shouting, talking about how you’d finally truly understood the mysteries of the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Sha Sword."

"Something about wanting to truly see the nature of things, and how to become a truly pure strong person, you must remove all impurities."

"And something about how the colorful world seen by the eye is far less pure than what is seen with the heart, there are too many impurities..."

"You wanted to see with your heart."

"See with my heart?" The Swordswoman on the hospital bed fell into a strange silence upon hearing this.

The Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect shook his head while stealthily gauging the Swordswoman’s condition, thinking to himself, "All of that, those were thoughts from deep within your memory, your own realizations, not something I made up."

After pausing for a moment and seeing that the Swordswoman didn’t have any excessive reaction, the Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect continued to say, "As you were saying that, you crazily dug out one of your eyes and then crushed it underfoot."

"Alas, if I hadn’t stopped you, maybe you would have clawed out your other eye as well."

The Swordswoman incredulously said, "I dug out my own eye?"

She abruptly sat up and pressed a finger to the Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect’s forehead, "Are you playing me?"

The cold sword light directly sliced open the Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect’s forehead, revealing a long gash from which blood continuously flowed out, spattering across his face.

The Second Elder of the Zhou Tian Sect insisted, "It’s the truth, I wouldn’t lie to you."

"Why don’t you think about it more? Think about what you really realized?"

Thinking of those realizations, the Swordswoman furrowed her brow because those indeed were the insights she had always harbored deep in her heart.

Feeling the darkness where her right eye used to be and pondering those realizations, she seemed to fall into deep thought.

The Second Elder of Zhou Tian Sect watched this unfold and slowly let out a breathe of relief, quietly backing away.

And soon after he left the hospital room, his phone started receiving messages one after another.

The Second Elder of Zhou Tian Sect looked at the contents and thought to himself, "There’s a master fighting in the city center? Whose faction is so reckless?"

He shook his head, planning to send someone to check which faction was causing trouble in the public area and tell the elders of their faction to quickly take them away.

At that time, the Second Elder of Zhou Tian Sect only thought this was a typical incident, a strong person from the Mirror World fighting and causing trouble in the real world.

...

Woo~ Woo~ Woo~ Woo~

Listening to the distant siren sounds, Jing Shiyu lifted the curtain and looked out onto the street.

"How many times has it been?" Jing Shiyu wondered to herself, "Tonight’s New Ke City seems a bit restless."

Her Dharma Eye also swept over the street vendor below that had no customers the entire time.

And the vehicle across the street that had been parked for a long time, with its interior constantly obscured.

As well as the figures in the shadows of the building across from her.

Pulling the curtain close, Jing Shiyu thought to herself, "White Eagle Country has already sent people to surveil the hotel."

"Does this mean that the high-levels of White Eagle Country have also come to a unanimous decision to make a move on Lin Xing?"

"But even if they are to make a move, it’s unlikely to be right now."

"They’re probably waiting until after tomorrow’s martial arts finals, then they’ll make their move."

"At the beginning, they probably won’t resort to violence, but rather, they will use the power of White Eagle Country to pressure Lin Xing step by step by following the processes and systems of this world, to restrict Lin Xing with various rules..."

Jing Shiyu walked over to a large metal box, opened it, and checked inside.

She saw that the box was filled with the latest personal weapons from Xia Country.

As the situation became increasingly tense, Jing Shiyu had used the power of the immortal sects to transport a batch of weapons from Xia Country, just in case.

"When the time comes to really take action, it might be better to strike first and kill a few, then flee back to Xia Country..."

After checking the condition of the weapons, Jing Shiyu sat at the desk, turned on the computer, and began sorting through intelligence, analyzing the situation.

Some time later, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

Jing Shiyu turned her head to look, her Dharma Eye already seeing through the door, "Master Bai?"

Seeing the ’Bai Yiyi’ standing outside with an expressionless face, Jing Shiyu tensed up.

At first glance, the person’s appearance was identical to Bai Yiyi’s, but upon closer observation, it was clear that the person’s clothing, facial expression, and overall demeanor were vastly different from Bai Yiyi’s.

Thus, Jing Shiyu didn’t respond but quickly took out her phone and dialed a number.

Her spiritual sense, however, moved towards the weapons inside the metal box nearby.

The next moment, the door was broken open by the other party, and the woman glanced around the room before tilting her head and saying, "Bai Yiyi isn’t here?"
