Chapter 270: Chapter 270: Engaging in Second Watch (1)_1

Such a bizarre phenomenon made Cai Wei realize that she had been manipulated by Tianjizi’s dark arts.

She struggled frantically to control her steps, to lift her arm holding the precious sword, but in vain. Her body seemed as if it wasn’t her own, as if it was being controlled by a powerful force, mechanically moving forward.

Nangong Yi noticed the abnormality in Cai Wei. He leapt into the air and rushed to meet Tianjizi before her. With a ’zhang’ sound, he drew the soft sword at his waist to stab at Tianjizi.

However,

The precious sword stopped less than a centimeter from Tianjizi’s throat, as if it were held in place. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t stab any further.

Tianjizi let out a cackling cold laugh: "Your Highness King Qin, it’s been a while!"

Nangong Yi coldly snorted, about to abandon the sword to strike with his palm, but suddenly found himself unable to move. Not only could he not move his body, but he couldn’t even speak. He could only watch helplessly as Cai Wei took one step after another towards Tianjizi.

Helplessness broke out in a cold sweat on Nangong Yi’s forehead. For the first time, his handsome face was fraught with pain and anxiety. Every step Cai Wei took felt like a heavy weight on his heart, a pain he had never experienced before!

Although Cai Wei’s body was under control, her consciousness was still clear. Seeing even Nangong Yi being controlled by the old demon, in her desperation, she suddenly remembered what the Old Turtle had told her previously -- if she ever has to fight Tianjizi and can’t defeat him, she could use the Pure Spirits of the Space to combat Tianjizi’s evil qi.

So, she activated her thoughts, making herself one with the space, gathering the invisible forces in the space with her consciousness...

Gradually, a white, misty fog rose up around her, enclosing her body.

Her mechanical footsteps came to a halt, and her arms were surprisingly free to move again; the cold yin energy on her body had disappeared without a trace. Cai Wei was overjoyed, she was free!

However, the person even more surprised was Tianjizi who was standing like a ghost at the entrance. When he saw the spiritual energy continuously seeping from Cai Wei, his gold-plated mask could hardly hide his greedy eyes. He seemed like a famished tiger that had seen a plump little lamb.

"Where is Fu You Island?"

He asked darkly, with the night wind causing his white hair to flurry and his robe to flutter, making him look like the king of the underworld.

At this moment, Cai Wei had walked up to him. Hearing his question, she let out a cold laugh, "Why don’t you ask it yourself?"

With that said, she swiftly slashed down with the precious sword.

Whoosh-

Air was slashed through. Tianjizi had already moved to the room like a ghost with the speed that her eyes couldn’t follow.

"Where is Fu You Island?"

He continued asking, extending his ash-grey palms. On his palms danced a visible dark qi, chilling and sinister!

"Old demon, old bull-nosed, this old lady will never tell you!"

After the small victory just now, Cai Wei’s confidence grew, her attitude arrogant and defiant!

"Pop-

A surge of Evil Yin Spirit’s Qi darted towards her, brushing past her ear and hitting the mud wall behind her. The mottled mud wall was punched through in an instant, inside and out!

"Where is Fu You Island?"

This time, Tianjizi’s patience seemed to have been exhausted. Both his hands, looking like skeletons, stretched out, each circled with a cloud of black qi.

Yet, Cai Wei wasn’t to be outdone. She gathered all the spiritual energy from the space and channelled it into her palms. Instantly, her delicate hands were surrounded by two dense clouds of spiritual energy.
