I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Seeing Lei Huaqing's gaze gradually sharpen, as if he intended to make a move, Xue Baochai knew that revealing her background had aroused his vigilance.

So Xue Baochai took the initiative to sit down cross-legged on the spot, and then looked up at Lei Huaqing and said, "Fellow Daoist Lei, may I sit down and listen to what I have to say?"

Seeing that Xue Baochai was taking the initiative to be friendly, Lei Huaqing lightly lifted his long robe, sat cross-legged, still holding up the wind and thunder with both hands, and looked directly at Xue Baochai, saying, "Please speak."

Xue Baochai said, "If I continue to impersonate a person of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao, then we will be mortal enemies. If I say that I am a person of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, then I am an unforgivable traitor. In any case, we will fight to the death, is that right?"

“Not bad,” Lei Huaqing said calmly.

Xue Baochai laughed and said, "That's why I told the truth. I am neither a being of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao nor a being of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao. I was sent by another Heavenly Dao to gather information. You could say I'm a spy."

Lei Huaqing asked, "Who are you from, according to the Heavenly Dao?"

Xue Baochai said, "I can't say. Oh, it's not that I don't want to say, but I'm under a restriction that prevents me from revealing any information about my own Heavenly Dao."

Lei Huaqing asked, "How can you prove it?"

Xue Baochai pondered for a moment, then asked Lei Huaqing, "I saw you were injured in the Upper Cliff Realm that day, and it seemed quite serious. I wonder if you are fully healed today?"

Lei Huaqing said calmly, "What does this have to do with what we're discussing?"

Xue Baochai took out a gourd from her sleeve and used her magic to present it to Lei Huaqing, saying, "This is a healing elixir I brought from home, called the 'Taiyi Five Spirits Pill.' It is the highest grade healing elixir. I believe your Fenglei Heavenly Dao does not have the same elixir, does it?"

Lei Huaqing stared at the gourd of elixirs before him, his gaze flickering uncertainly.

Seeing this, Xue Baochai knew that he could not trust her, so she said, "If you believe me, take one of these elixirs and you will know whether what I said is true or false."

Lei Huaqing caught the gourd, then immediately placed it on the ground and said bluntly, "You can't be trusted."

Xue Baochai was taken aback, then fell silent, but soon she raised her head again and said, "Fellow Daoist Lei, I would like to ask, which is stronger, the Five Elements Heavenly Dao or the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao?"

“Of course it’s the Five Elements Heavenly Dao,” Lei Huaqing said. “It’s obvious.”

Xue Baochai then asked, "Can the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao win this battle? Can it repel the Five Elements Heavenly Dao?"

Lei Huaqing said, "Only one Grand Luo Golden Immortal from the Five Elements Heavenly Dao came this time. The other four Dao Ancestors did not participate in the attack on the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao."

Xue Baochai asked, "How many Dao Ancestors are there in the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder?"

“The two of you,” Lei Huaqing said, “Dao Ancestor Tianfeng and Dao Ancestor Tianlei. The two Dao Ancestors blocked the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao from the very beginning, keeping him outside the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge.”

Xue Baochai said, "If that's the case, then the Heavenly Principles of Wind and Thunder should have the upper hand, so why are they being invaded by the Heavenly Principles of the Five Elements and suffering repeated defeats?"

Lei Huaqing said, "It's very simple. When the Heavenly Bridge of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao opened the Heavenly Gate of my Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao, the beings of my Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao were unaware of the existence of other Heavenly Daos, so they were not prepared to deal with it."

Xue Baochai nodded: "But the Five Elements Heavenly Dao is different. They had already destroyed two Heavenly Dao manifestations before this. Their cultivators have been engaged in battles for a long time, so they are naturally not comparable to the beings of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao."

“Yes.” Lei Huaqing nodded slightly.

Xue Baochai said, "Then I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Lei to consider a question: If a third Heavenly Dao suddenly appears while the Heavenly Dao of Wind and Thunder and the Heavenly Dao of the Five Elements are fighting each other, what will the situation be like?"

Lei Huaqing's eyes flashed, his thoughts shifting a thousand times in an instant. Finally, he said, "There are only three possibilities. First, they may invade the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao together with the Five Elements Heavenly Dao. Second, they may attack the Five Elements Heavenly Dao together with the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao. Third, there may be a three-way standoff and a chaotic battle between them."

Xue Baochai nodded and said, "What Fellow Daoist Lei said is true. The fact that I was able to come to the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao means that my Heavenly Dao already knows of the existence of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao."

"So even if you kill me now, Fellow Daoist Lei, you're only killing a scout, which won't change anything. On the contrary, it will make you an enemy of my Heavenly Dao. Since that's the case, why can't you allow me to exist?" Xue Baochai said.

Lei Huaqing said, "What you say makes sense, but no matter which Heavenly Dao enters, it will be a calamity for my Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao. How can I allow your existence?"

Xue Baochai said, "I still maintain that I cannot decide the overall situation by myself, and killing me alone cannot change the overall picture. I can also tell Fellow Daoist Lei some news: the Dao Ancestors of our Heavenly Dao are also constructing the Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge. Within a hundred years, our Heavenly Dao's Measuring Heaven Divine Bridge will also open the Heavenly Gate for the Manifestation of the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao."

Lei Huaqing's pupils contracted again, and then he asked a crucial question: "How many Dao Ancestors are there in your Heavenly Dao?"

Xue Baochai shook her head and smiled, "I can't say."

Lei Huaqing's gaze sharpened slightly, and he suddenly stood up and said, "Since that's the case, let's go our separate ways. I won't kill you, but you shouldn't follow me anymore."

Xue Baochai stood up and was about to speak when she suddenly felt a powerful sense of oppression from behind. She turned around sharply and saw a huge celestial ship approaching at an extremely fast speed.

"This is..." Xue Baochai was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed drastically. She said, "Oh no, it's the Dingwei Tianfang. They've caught up with us."

Lei Huaqing immediately looked at Xue Baochai and said, "Stop pretending. They caught up with me as soon as I escaped here. Who else could it be if you tipped me off?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai said, "Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken. I did not bring them here, but they must have come seeking my aura."

At this point, Xue Baochai suddenly took off all twelve defensive magical treasures from her body and presented them to Lei Huaqing.

Lei Huaqing was taken aback when he saw this, then asked Xue Baochai, "What do you mean?"

Xue Baochai said, "Now it's up to you. Here are all these defensive magic treasures for you. Can you break through the encirclement?"

Lei Huaqing frowned, looking at the twelve magical treasures before him with suspicion in his eyes.

"You suspect something is amiss?" Xue Baochai asked.

Lei Huaqing reiterated, "I don't trust you."

Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai immediately lost her temper. She withdrew the twelve magical treasures to protect herself again and said, "Fine, since that's the case, let me fight my way out for you."

But no sooner had Xue Baochai finished speaking than Lei Huaqing appeared before her, saying in a cold tone, "How dare I, a man of stature, use the power of a woman like you?"

Having said that, Lei Huaqing, enveloped in wind and thunder, charged directly at the overwhelming horde of Five Elements Heavenly Dao cultivators. On the bow of the Dingwei ship, Captain Tu Feichen and Enforcement Captain Tu Yuhun arrived side by side. When they saw Lei Huaqing rushing out first, Tu Feichen immediately said, "The oriole stalks the cicada, but the mouse has escaped. Good, we can deal with the rest later."

After saying that, Tu Feichen said to Tu Yuhun, "That person is Lei Huaqing. I didn't expect these two to actually get together. Fellow Daoist, please wait here for a moment. I will personally go and capture Lei Huaqing."

Tsuchimikado nodded and said, "These two together must be plotting something. We must capture them alive."

Tu Feichen raised his hand and waved it. A flash of immortal light appeared on his body, and a divine robe immediately materialized. Then, Tu Feichen transformed into a beam of immortal light and flew towards Lei Huaqing.

This time, Tu Feichen dispatched all 27,000 immortal cultivators of Dingwei Tianfang to surround Lei Huaqing and Xue Baochai from all directions.

Those at the forefront had already engaged in battle. Lei Huaqing's Wind and Thunder Immortal Techniques were still powerful, and four Five Elements Heavenly Dao cultivators were killed in just one exchange.

Seeing this, Tu Yuhun frowned, "Is Lei Huaqing a cultivator from a minor world?"

“They are cultivators from the Upper Rock Realm,” said one of the vice-captains.

Tsuchimiya asked, "How is the Upper Rock Realm now?"

Another deputy captain said, "Shangyan Realm has been completely wiped out. Only Lei Huaqing is on the run. Furthermore, Shangyan Realm has been destroyed by the Yilutian Bow."

Tu Yuhun nodded, then looked at Lei Huaqing, who was wielding the power of wind and thunder and wreaking havoc amidst the encirclement, and said, "This person cultivates both wind and thunder, and is also a hero, but it is a pity that he is not one of our Five Elements Heavenly Dao."

Meanwhile, Tu Lingbai, along with Tu He and a dozen other teams, directly surrounded Xue Baochai. Without saying a word, they launched an attack on Xue Baochai.

Xue Baochai had a defensive formation composed of twelve magical treasures, but it was still very difficult to withstand the attack of hundreds of people. After only ten breaths, the first magical treasure was destroyed, and the first layer of defense was broken.

Xue Baochai remained calm, took out a purple-gold awl from her mustard seed sleeve, and threw it out.

The purple-gold cone transformed into a beam of golden light and shot out. With a few 'poof' sounds, three Earth Clan cultivators were pierced through the body, but not fatally; they were seriously injured.

But when the golden cone reached Tuhe, Xue Baochai did not strike, but stopped the golden cone.

Upon realizing what was happening, Tuhe immediately swung his knife at the purple-gold cone. With a loud clang, sparks flew, and a crack immediately appeared on the cone.

Xue Baochai was startled and was about to retract the Purple Gold Cone when more than a dozen Heavy Gold Blades came crashing down, instantly shattering the Purple Gold Cone into pieces.

Xue Baochai immediately looked at Tuhe and said, "Fellow Daoist Tuhe, why are you so heartless?"

Tuhe shouted sternly, "You despicable wretch, who is your fellow Daoist? You impersonate my kind and harm my people. I will never let you get away with this!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai immediately retorted angrily, "Although I impersonated a member of your clan, did I not contribute when you wiped out those nine worlds? Don't you have any sense of loyalty or righteousness at all?"

Tuhe said, "You have ulterior motives. What affection or loyalty do we have for you? Since you are not of our kind, you should die."

"Fine, then don't blame me for being heartless." Upon hearing this, Xue Baochai no longer showed any mercy and immediately unleashed all the magical treasures in her mustard seed sleeve, beginning to use their power to wreak havoc on all sides.

On the distant sky boat, Tu Yuhun saw Xue Baochai displaying her magical treasures with great power and exclaimed in astonishment, "How does she have so many magical treasures?"

The two vice-captains were also dumbfounded. One of them said, "Could this woman be a disciple or relative of some powerful figure from the Wind and Thunder Heavenly Dao?"

Upon hearing this, Tsuchimikado suddenly laughed and said, "Interesting. Immediately issue the order to send more men to surround and attack this woman."

"Yes." The deputy captain on the right acknowledged the order and immediately raised the flag to issue the command, transferring five thousand men from the side besieging Lei Huaqing to besiege Xue Baochai.

However, Lei Huaqing still had 15,000 men besieging him, and the pressure on Lei Huaqing increased dramatically after Tu Feichen joined the battle.

Tu Feichen unleashed his magic, instantly creating an incredibly sturdy earthen wall in all directions. The 15,000 Tu Clan cultivators immediately poured their magic power into the earthen wall, forming a massive earthen wall formation centered on Tu Feichen.

"I never imagined you would attain the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit at such a young age." Tu Feichen said, looking at Lei Huaqing who kept crashing into the wall. "But within my earthen wall formation, your Wind and Thunder Escape Technique is useless."

Lei Huaqing pursed his lips slightly, then his figure flashed, transforming into wind and thunder, and rushed straight towards Tu Feichen.

However, Tu Feichen raised his hand to form a seal and gently pressed down towards the direction Lei Huaqing came from. In an instant, a huge earthen mound descended.

In an instant, the wind and thunder power on Lei Huaqing's body was shattered into pieces. At the same time, Lei Huaqing spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The injuries he had suffered before had not yet healed and were now being triggered again.

In the blink of an eye, Lei Huaqing's body was stained red with blood, and he was suppressed by the huge earthen mound. It was extremely difficult for him to even hold on, and he was completely unable to put up any resistance.

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the earthen wall formation. Then, a beam of immortal light broke through a section of the earthen wall formation. Xue Baochai, covered by eight defensive magic treasures and riding thirteen offensive magic treasures, rushed in and rushed to Lei Huaqing's side.

Then Xue Baochai presented the Taiyi Five Spirit Pill gourd to Lei Huaqing and asked, "Would you like to eat it?"

Lei Huaqing glanced at Xue Baochai, then opened his mouth, and Xue Baochai immediately poured a whole gourd of Taiyi Five Spirit Pills into Lei Huaqing's mouth.

Just ten breaths later, Lei Huaqing, who was already at his limit, suddenly roared, his body radiating immortal light and his aura surging.

With a single raise of his arms, a vast and powerful force of wind surged forth, actually sending the massive earthen mound flying. Then, a bolt of divine lightning as thick as a bucket crashed down, blasting the mound to smithereens.

Seeing Lei Huaqing instantly return to his peak condition, Tu Feichen immediately understood that it was the effect of the elixir Xue Baochai had given him. In a fit of rage, Tu Feichen glared at Tu Lingbai and the others who were catching up from behind and cursed, "More than five thousand people couldn't even surround one person, what use are you? A bunch of useless trash!"

Tu Lingbai and the others looked solemn, but they couldn't be blamed for it. Xue Baochai had too many magical treasures, and she had all kinds of defensive and offensive treasures, each with its own unique uses.

Therefore, Xue Baochai was determined to charge towards Lei Huaqing, and they found it very difficult to stop her. Just by breaking four defensive magic treasures and seven offensive magic treasures on Xue Baochai's body, they lost more than forty cultivators, but they still couldn't stop her from charging over.

Amidst the encirclement, Xue Baochai handed over all thirteen of her remaining offensive magical weapons to Lei Huaqing, saying, "Buy me a quarter of an hour."

Lei Huaqing asked in surprise, "What are you going to do?"

Xue Baochai took out a table from her magical treasure, along with an incense burner and three sticks of incense, setting up a simple altar in mid-air. Then, she took out a talisman inscribed with the characters '霊' (Ling), '鸿' (Hong), and '青' (Qing), and said, "Invite the gods!" (End of Chapter)
