Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 487: Golden Roc Broken Feathers, Fairy's Heart is in Disarray

"Do you really want to stop me from achieving the Perfect Feather Transformation by using my Initial Feather Transformation Stage?"

Yu Wanyue's voice was filled with anger, but the tail end of her voice trembled slightly because of the lotus fragrance coming from the direction of the bamboo hut. "It is rumored that Venerable Lianjian is quiet and elegant. I don't think he should humiliate me like this just because I am a demon!"

It's understandable that Yu Wanyue is so angry. It would be fine if she was really defeated by Venerable Lian Jian, but she should just admit defeat if she is not as skilled as him.

But Venerable Lian Jian just kept her and did not take action. Instead, he let one of his disciples in the lower realm of Huayu to fight with her. This was clearly a blatant disrespect for her.

Because there was a huge gap in realm between her and You Su, she was still forced to fight with him. This showed that this cold swordsman did not regard her as an enemy at all, and did not even regard her as a touchstone for his disciples to practice, but as a toy for his disciples to play with.

If she won, it would be unfair for her to win by bullying the weak, and she would also be suppressed by Venerable Lianjian to let his disciple vent his anger; and if she lost, not only would she not be able to escape, but she would also lose to You Su with her perfect cultivation level of Huayu, which would be a complete insult.

"Today's situation means that our Jinpeng clan has been defeated, but a warrior can be killed but not humiliated! Master Lianjian, please don't think that Wanyue is a coward!"

Yu Wanyue became more and more indignant as she spoke, and the pressure from Huayu Yuanman shattered the rocks at her feet into dust.

"The elder has misunderstood." You Su interrupted her, tapping the ground with the tip of his sword. "My master has no intention of humiliating Elder Wanyue, but he is unwilling to do so unless it is absolutely necessary. Elder Wanyue should understand. Of course, I have no intention of having a fair one-on-one duel with Elder Wanyue, so I am not the only enemy you have."

The way the young man openly talked about "gang fight" made Yu Xiaoran furious. He felt that the boy was extremely shameless and spat, "The human race is really a bunch of shameless people! If you don't have the strength, don't pretend!"

Ji Lingruo retorted with disdain: "Didn't the Golden Peng Clan treat the Snake Clan unfairly first? And yet you still expect us to reason with you? Your Golden Peng Clan claims to be a prestigious clan, so how come you are like an uncivilized little demon who doesn't know courtesy, righteousness, and honor?"

"You! You are just trying to gain the upper hand with your tongue!" Yu Xiaoran was so angry that his eyes were wide open.

“Shut up!” Yu Wanyue suddenly turned around, and the gust of wind brought by her wide sleeves pushed the Son of God back three steps. The golden roc pattern on the dark green hem of her clothes glowed coldly in the firelight.

Yu Xiaoran was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that this woman would dare to attack him, and his expression became more and more distorted.

“At each level of the Feather Transformation Realm, the amount of Mysterious Qi differs by a thousand feet. You know, even if the entire Snake Clan attacks me together, they will not be able to stop me.” Yu Wanyue slowly spread its wings, and the golden feathers cut through the night, as if persuading You Su not to do anything unnecessary.

You Su was amazed at her gorgeous and charming appearance, but he still said confidently: "If we lose, you can leave safely, and our master will never take action. Please rest assured, Elder Wanyue, even if I may be a villain who goes back on his word, my master will never be. But if we win by chance, I'm afraid Elder Wanyue will have to keep this matter to himself forever."

Yu Wanyue was slightly startled when she heard this, as if she was touched by the young man's confidence. She knew very well that it was impossible for her to escape from the sword of the Lotus Sword Master, but now there was such a chance to escape, and she had no reason to refuse.

While she was deep in thought, Yu Xiaoran could not wait to scold her: "Yu Wanyue! Are you deaf? Promise them! Kill them all and take me away! As long as we return alive, they will all be killed--!"

Before he finished speaking, Yu Xiaoran felt a chill on his lips, and then a sharp pain made his scalp numb. He looked closely and saw that it was You Su who took advantage of his unpreparedness and attacked him with a sword, cutting off half of his lip!

He looked at You Su as if he was looking at a dead person, and was immediately frightened to death. You Su lightly drew his sword and took a few steps back, "Son, don't you understand what I say? I only said that Elder Wan Yue can leave, but as for you, you will definitely die. So, dead man, stop making noise."

Seeing You Su retreat, Yu Xiaoran was as if he had been pardoned. He quickly covered his bleeding mouth and ran towards Yu Wanyue. While running, he could only endure the severe pain of the wound and muttered: "Yu Wanyue! Kill him for me!"

But Yu Wanyue just looked back at him coldly, and Yu Xiaoran was unable to move. He realized that if this woman wanted to save him, it would be impossible for You Su to hurt him with her strength.

"You, you dare not save me! Yu Wanyue! If you dare to betray Jin Peng, you will die!"

Half of Yu Xiaoran's chin had been stained with blood, and he looked more like a terrifying monster than You Su, but it couldn't hide his cowardice. When he realized that his orders could no longer restrain Yu Wanyue, he began to tremble, and even his condescending tone turned into a pleading tone: "Save me, I beg you to save me... I don't want your cultivation, I don't want anything! You are the youngest elder of the Jinpeng Clan! Save me and you will have a bright future!"

But Yu Wanyue turned a deaf ear to his pleas, and only heard a cold condolence:

"I will report to the master and avenge you."

Yu Xiaoran looked at her tall back and finally realized that he had never been taken seriously by this woman.

An unwilling roar came from his throat, but the moment Yu Wanyue turned around, it was as if all his strength was drained away, and he staggered and sat down on the hot volcanic rocks.

Blood dripped from the corner of his lips, splashing dark red flowers on the stone surface. He looked at the snake elders who were gradually approaching and finally tasted fear for the first time.

In the night, Granny Liu's snake-headed staff slammed heavily on the ground, and the seven snake elders stood on either side, surrounded by dark blue snake shadows. They had already cleaned up the mess, their colorful sleeves fluttering in the heat, and the snake scales behind their ears glowed like glass, forming a sharp contrast with the golden wings stretched behind Yu Wanyue.

At the same time, You Su took a half step forward, and the Mosong sword hummed like a dragon's roar.

"Sister Yu," Granny Liu's voice was filled with the vicissitudes of life, "The friendship between you and me when we were studying together is still there. I wanted to do my best to be a good host, but the guest has bad intentions. It's a pity."

Yu Wanyue seemed to recall the days when they were classmates. She pursed her lips tightly and sighed:
"I can't help myself, just like before."

As soon as she finished speaking, the golden wings behind her suddenly folded up, like a longbow filled with power.

"That's offending!"

At Granny Liu's command, the snake elders simultaneously pinched their fingertips and a giant snake shadow rushed out from behind them, interweaving into a net in mid-air.

The golden feathers on both wings behind Yu Wanyue spread out at the same time, turning into a rain of golden feather swords all over the sky, and she actually flew towards the giant net.

The Snake Clan specializes in magic, and has a unique technique for controlling snakes, which is often effective when the enemy is caught off guard. The Golden Peng Clan practices both magic and swordsmanship, and is born with a pair of golden wings, so when they fight, they seem like golden immortals.

The move was temporarily stopped, as it turned out that the snake elders were even more powerful when they joined forces. Yu Wanyue's eyes flickered when she saw this, and she spread her wings again. Her body turned into a residual shadow and avoided the giant net, while the Golden Feather Sword condensed into a more dazzling blade of light in her palm.

The light blade was extremely fast and went straight to the face of an elder, but the other six elders cooperated seamlessly. The snake shadow suddenly expanded and wrapped around Yu Wanyue's golden wings like a giant python, and poison seeped in along the patterns on the golden feathers.

Yu Wanyue gritted his teeth, flapped his golden wings violently, repelled the snake shadow, and leaped into the sky.

The four elders at the lower level of Huayu took the opportunity to surround it, while the three elders at the middle level of Huayu moved up from the bottom. In an instant, tens of millions of snake shadows swarmed in from all directions, making the golden bird in the middle look precarious.

But Yu Wanyue was not just a show-off. Her golden wings suddenly expanded by dozens of times, making her look like a golden butterfly with huge wings. The golden wings fluttered violently, and a strong wind suddenly blew. The sharp sword energy merged into the flying golden feathers, turning into a golden storm, crushing all the surrounding shadows.

Before this battle, Granny Liu had instructed You Su not to take action. Now seeing that the seven elders were cooperating so well, You Su was afraid of causing trouble and did not dare to take action rashly.

Of the seven elders of the Snake Clan, four were in the lower stage of Feather Transformation, and three were in the middle stage of Feather Transformation. Also, since they were not at their strongest in the battle with the Golden Peng Guards just now, it was too difficult for this configuration to defeat a cultivator who had reached the perfection of Feather Transformation. Fortunately, the art of controlling snakes was cunning and changeable, and the seven elders worked together and cooperated tacitly, and they were able to suppress the enemy subtly.

But Yu Wanyue was neither anxious nor impatient. Even when fighting independently, she did not lose her composure at all. On the contrary, she repeatedly used her agility to find flaws in the coordination of the seven people and counterattack.

Both sides used all their skills and magic weapons, and the night sky above the snake clan suddenly lit up with countless balls of light. For a moment, You Su couldn't tell whether it was the golden bird hunting snakes, or snakes surrounding the golden bird.

The golden feather and the snake shadow entangled in the red light of the volcano. When Yu Wanyue's golden wings shattered the snake shadow for the seventh time, the wing tips were already stained with dark blue poisonous mist, and the edges of each golden feather emitted a sizzling sound like gold erosion. She, who was originally the best at flying, seemed to be a little shaky. Granny Liu witnessed her injuries with her own eyes. The snake-headed staff left deep marks on her palms, but she still gritted her teeth and urged the mysterious energy, saying:
"Do it!"

The shadows of the seven giant snakes suddenly merged into one, transforming into a giant sky-swallowing python made of colorful glass.

Yu Wanyue's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was also shocked by the magical skills performed by these seven people. His golden wings tilted to the right as if out of control, revealing a flaw in his heart.

Just as the giant python was about to attack their heart, Yu Wanyue suddenly turned around, and the dark blue poison on the surface of the golden wings suddenly boiled in the reverse direction, turning into millions of fine needles that shot towards the seven people.

Granny Liu's pupils suddenly shrank - she was poisoned on purpose!

She should have thought of it earlier that Yu Wanyue had experienced the power of her snake clan's poison technique from her in the past. And since Yu Wanyue was ordered to capture the snake clan, given her style of carefully investigating the snake clan for three days, it is impossible for her to be unprepared just by relying on her cultivation!
So even though she was poisoned, it was definitely not as serious as she showed!
The purpose of her doing so was only to induce the seven people to perform a spell that required the power of seven people to be gathered at the same time!

Those who cast spells fear being approached by others the most. The snake clan's spells are known for their varied moves, and they cooperate well with each other. In every confrontation, there are people responsible for restraining and attacking, which is why even Yu Wanyue, who has achieved perfect feather transformation, cannot get close.

But now, she has the chance!
Yu Wanyue looked at the seven snake elders above, their hair was steamed to their foreheads by the heat. Although the snake shadows were huge, they were already tired. Finally, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips——

She made the right bet, she grasped the psychology of these seven snake women!

After all, Huayu's perfect Xuanqi Sea is not comparable to that of the seven cultivators in the lower and middle realms!

The combined might of these seven snake elders at their peak would probably have brought disaster to any cultivator below the Void Realm. But now, they had already fought a great battle with the 200 Golden Peng Guards, and they knew that the seven of them could not hold her back alone, so they would not miss any fleeting opportunity to give her a fatal blow.

But unexpectedly, the moment of showing its fangs is the best time for the golden bird to show its sharp claws!
The golden needle had penetrated the protective shield of the elders in the front row, and Granny Liu shouted, "Oh no!"

If they continue to cast the spell, the two elders in front will surely be crippled if not killed, but if they interrupt the spell, they will no longer have the chance to capture this cunning golden bird!
The young man had been standing on the edge of the battle for too long. At the critical moment, You Su's Mosong sword was finally unsheathed.

He took half a step forward, and the dark red lines in his left eye and the lotus patterns on the sword tassel lit up at the same time. This was the fusion of sword intent that he and his master's wife had practiced many times in his dreams!

Lian Sheng's sword intent was like a blooming lotus, while Mo Song's sword intent was like a raging fire. For the first time, the two completely different sword intents truly blended together in the depths of his mind.

"The sword's will can be integrated, and so can people."

The fairy in white dress who was watching the battle through the window in the bamboo house opened her beautiful eyes slightly, as if she heard the subconscious murmur of the young man who was concentrating on his sword.

After being locked in the sword intent that threatened her, Yu Wanyue looked back suddenly, greatly shocked.

She had never expected that it was not the Lotus Sword Venerable who was unworthy of his reputation and was going to take action, but the young man whom she did not take seriously who raised the Black Sword!

There was no sound of the sword breaking through the air, but it made the clouds in the crater condense in mid-air.

Yu Wanyue was stunned. She saw two sword intents flowing on the sword blade like yin and yang fish, lotus petals wrapped around sparks, and tongues of fire entwined around ice edges. They were obviously contradictory yet terrifyingly harmonious.

The sword light was like two cranes embracing each other, drawing an arc of yin and yang in the void.

This is not a simple superposition of moves, but a recasting of the souls of two sword intents. It is a crazy method that even those in the Void Realm might not dare to try.

There was a giant python swallowing the sky in front of her, and swords were surging behind her. Yu Wanyue, who had completed her feather transformation, had no intention of escaping. She had experienced too many petty tricks in her cultivation so far, and at this moment, she only wanted to fight to the death. In addition to verifying the fruits of her hard work for a hundred years, she had no other distractions.

But just as her golden feathers were condensing into light, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her demon core, which disrupted her whole body of profound energy into a mess.

She seemed to realize something suddenly, and when she looked down she saw Yu Xiaoran slumped on the rubble, laughing wildly.

“Yu Wanyue!” Yu Xiaoran’s roar was mixed with blood foam, “You want to leave me and escape alone? Dream on! If we’re going to die, let’s die together!”

Just as he finished speaking, his left shoulder was pierced by Ji Lingruo's sword and he was nailed to the ground, unable to move.

But Yu Wanyue's golden wings folded in response, and the whole person fell like a kite with a broken string.

She recalled the moment a hundred years ago when she was accepted by her family because of her extraordinary talent. At that time, she made a good friend when she was studying in the sacred mountain - the little snake who shared the same interests as her was full of envy for her and personally saw her off. When they parted, they agreed that when they became the leaders of the tribe in the future, they would make sure that the two tribes would be united forever.

But the little snake didn't know that as soon as she stepped into the family's gate, she was promised by the Jinpeng clan leader to be the wife of the newly born holy son.

As a result, she received more resources from the Golden Peng clan, and was also forced to do many bad things. She regarded them all as training for achieving the great way, and practiced hard to become the youngest elder of the contemporary Golden Peng clan.

Perhaps it was when she received this honor that the clan leader became determined to bind her to this useless Saint Son. It was also at that time that the clan leader tampered with her demon pill.

Is this to prevent me from changing my mind and not handing over my cultivation to him?
Or are you afraid that I, who was born into a side branch, am more ambitious and want to pull them down from the top of the family?

She didn't have time to figure it out.

The mad dragon on You Su's sword was less than three meters away from the noble golden bird with broken feathers, but he saw a bitter smile of relief flash across her eyes.

"Don't kill her!"

Granny Liu's voice came faster than the sound of the sword cutting flesh and blood.

You Su felt that for some reason, the intertwined voice of Granny Liu and Yu Wanyue's bitter smile made him unable to help but soften his heart.

He suddenly bit the tip of his tongue and forcibly reversed the Xuan Qi.

The Mosong Sword let out an unwilling wail, and the pink and black mad dragons dispersed at the sound.

The sword light froze just in front of it, but the strong wind it created made the golden-winged fairy's black hair flutter.

Yu Wanyue looked at the pale corners of You Su's lips. The boy's entire face was covered with a broken dark red color, which was clearly the backlash caused by forcibly withdrawing the move.

The red light in the crater suddenly flickered violently, and a clear sound of sword came from the direction of the bamboo hut. He Shutong's white figure stood outside the door, her wide sleeves drooping like crane wings, but she did not make a move - she kept her promise after all, and only used sword power to intimidate, without taking a single step forward.

In fact, without He Shutong's intimidation, Yu Wanyue completely forgot that this was the best time for her to fight back. She just asked blankly:
"Why..."

"You should know," You Su wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, and the tassel of his sword drooped like a wounded tail feather, "What I want is the safety of the snake clan, not to kill them all."
