Chapter 98 Chapter 98 Who would let go of the good life and...

"Demon world? Humph!"

Caiyun withdrew her grip from Biqing's shoulder and said coldly, "Biqing, although your mother and I are good friends, you know the relationship between the heavenly realm and the demonic realm. There's no need for me to wade into this mess just for your deceased mother."

Caiyun turned her back and unceremoniously ordered them to leave: "For the sake of your father and mother, I will spare your life. Before I change my mind, you can take this wolf demon away on your own."

The gods in heaven have always been arrogant, so it is understandable that they look down on demons.

Biqing had been prepared to be rejected by Caiyun from the beginning.

But she thought that for the sake of her parents, Caiyun would be a little soft-hearted and would not send her and Xuanyi away so quickly.

Biqing chuckled: "Since I'm here, I never thought of going back empty-handed."

Xuan Yi tightened his grip on Biqing's hand. He lowered his voice and warned, "Biqing, don't act rashly."

Biqing nodded perfunctorily.

Caiyun's body stiffened and she turned around: "What do you mean, little brat?! Are you going to act wild in front of me again?!"

Biqing pulled her hand free from Xuanyi's tight grip and repeated her words, her tone respectful yet tinged with a hint of challenge: "Fairy Caiyun, please, for the sake of my parents, lend me the artifact to save the countless lives of the demon world."

Caiyun glanced at Biqing and said, "What if I don't? You are just a small immortal who has cultivated for a thousand years. What can you do to me?"

Bi Qing spread her hands, looking embarrassed. "Indeed, if you don't want to lend me the artifact, I really can't do anything."

"But I can tell my aunt that I've been greatly wronged by the fairy. The fairy knows that my parents passed away early, and I only have my aunt as a relative. She will definitely not bear to see me being bullied."

Biqing wiped away the nonexistent tears from her eyes as she spoke, "When the time comes, I'm afraid my aunt will find out I've been wronged and will tear your palace apart. By the way, you should know that my aunt Chisong is a high god, right?"

Caiyun choked.

She knew a little about the affairs of the demon world, but due to her status, she could only feel regret after hearing about them and could do nothing.

There was no need for her to sacrifice thousands of years of cultivation for the sake of her compassion.

Who would waste their good life and make themselves unhappy?

But Akamatsu's temper...

It's no problem to severely injure the Demon Lord, so isn't it easy to overturn his own palace?

Caiyun didn't think that a conservative person like Chisong would disobey the Emperor of Heaven for the sake of the demon world.

But it is hard to judge what Akamatsu can do for the sake of his brother's only bloodline.

Caiyun's eyebrows moved slightly, and she looked at Biqing again.

She likes to meddle in other people's affairs, just like her father.

Caiyun spread out her hands, and a dark cloud appeared in her palms: "The neon silk you want is in it."

Biqing's eyes lit up, and she was about to thank him, but was interrupted by Caiyun: "I didn't say I would give it to you. Whether you can get it depends on your own ability."

After he finished speaking, dark clouds flashed a few times, and rumbling thunder echoed in the hall.

Biqing and Xuanyi's brows furrowed tightly as the thunder rumbled.

Caiyun said, "For the sake of your parents, I'll give you a chance. As for the outcome... I don't have the final say."

Biqing stared at the dark cloud with lightning and thunder, and stepped forward without hesitation.

In an instant, a gray shadow appeared, one step faster than him, blocking his steps.

Xuan Yi stopped Bi Qing and walked towards Cai Yun step by step: "This is my business. There is no reason for me to let you go."

Caiyun still didn't look at him straight in the eye, but out of a trace of pity in her heart, she kindly reminded him: "Biqing went in and still came out alive, but if you go in, there will be nothing left but your body."

Xuan Yi scoffed and ordered, "Send me in."

"Xuan Yi!" Bi Qing ran to his side. "Didn't we agree to go together? Why are you acting on your own and facing danger alone?"

Caiyun glanced up and down at Biqing and said, "Stop arguing. Let's go in together."

They have such a good relationship, wouldn’t it be like killing them if they really broke up?

However, she also wanted to see whether the two people with completely different identities would face the danger together or flee separately.

Caiyun threw the dark cloud in her palm to the center of the hall.

The palm-sized dark cloud suddenly expanded and covered the roof of the hall.

Without giving Biqing a chance to speak again, Caiyun waved her sleeves and sent Biqing and Xuanyi into the dark clouds.

Biqing looked at Xuanyi and teased, "How does it feel to be inside the dark cloud for the first time?"

A flash of yellow lightning flashed in the dark clouds, followed by a rumbling thunder.

Xuan Yi said, "It's a bit noisy."

A drop of rain fell on Xuan Yi's shoulder. It was not as wet as usual, but more like a tiny piece of gravel, landing on his shoulder neither lightly nor heavily.

Xuan Yi sensed something odd and silently erected a barrier for the two of them.

When Xuan Yi used his demonic power, he found that the feeling of blockage in his meridians was gone.

He speculated: This place is closed, even if he uses spiritual power and demonic power, he will not attract people from heaven.

Just in case, Xuan Yi tried to gather demonic power in his palm.

After making sure that the peace covenant would not be disturbed, Xuan Yi said, "Beyond the dark clouds, there is a barrier of colorful clouds. You can use your spiritual power without worry. It will not attract anyone from the heavens."

Biqing looked at the demonic power gathered in Xuanyi's palm and said, "That's great!"

Otherwise, she would be timid and afraid to use her spiritual power to hinder Xuan Yi.

As Biqing was speaking, in the blink of an eye, a bolt of lightning shot down and struck the two of them.

Fortunately, Xuan Yi had opened the barrier in advance, so the two were not injured.

Bi Qing patted her chest in fear, "It's even scarier than the thunder punishment!"

She had never seen the thunder punishment with her own eyes, but she had heard people talk about it.

Countless thunderbolts fell from the sky and struck the back of the immortal who had committed a serious crime, instantly leaving his skin torn and bloody.

Biqing couldn't even imagine that scene.

This was also the first time Xuan Yi had seen a lightning strike so close up, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't scared.

He quickly adjusted his mood and drove away the fear in his heart.

Gradually, Xuan Yi began to get used to the lightning that struck them rashly.

Xuan Yi's composure reassured Bi Qing.

Xuan Yi isn't afraid, so why should I be afraid?

Bi Qing said, "Xuan Yi, leave the barrier to me. I'll trouble you with finding the neon silk."

Xuan Yi nodded and concentrated on searching for the neon silk within the dark clouds where lightning flashed and rain slanted.

Xuan Yi had seen that silk when he was flipping through a book. It was eight feet eight inches long and one foot two inches wide, and it was pure white. Logically, it should be particularly conspicuous here.

Even though Xuan Yi had excellent eyesight, he looked around but couldn't find any trace of the neon silk.

Xuan Yi searched carefully, fearing that he might miss any corner and miss the neon silk.

The thunder gradually subsided, and Biqing's fear gradually calmed down.

Because the sky was covered in dark clouds and would not clear up, Biqing untied the hydrangea tied around her waist and hung it in front of her as a lantern.

The more light there is, the more clearly Biqing can see the things around her.

With a "click", the raindrops hitting the barrier distracted Biqing's attention.

There were no traces of water on the barrier. Before Biqing could take a closer look, raindrops hit the barrier like gravel.

Biqing looked at the "raindrops" nailed to the barrier, tugged at the sleeve of the person next to her, and said in surprise, "Xuan Yi, look!"

Xuan Yi followed Biqing's gaze: transparent raindrops were pinned outside the barrier.

Looking back, the same thing happened outside the barrier behind me.

Behind the raindrops, there is a thread as thin as silk that is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

Biqing pointed at the raindrops outside the barrier and said, "It can actually be embedded in the barrier!"

She obviously didn't see the silk thread at the tail of the raindrop.

Xuan Yi echoed the words, gathered a bit of his demonic power, and sent it through the barrier into the raindrops.

The blue demonic power spread along the tail of the raindrops to the ends.

Xuan Yi looked up at the direction where his demonic power reached, and unexpectedly disappeared at the top of the dark clouds.

The barrier is surrounded by threads imbued with demonic energy. Although they are crisscrossed, they all converge at the same place.

Biqing looked at the silk thread disappearing into the dark clouds and said, "It should be there, right?"

Xuan Yi said uncertainly, "Maybe."

His arm was grasped by someone familiarly, and Xuan Yi teased gently, "Biqing, are you still afraid that I'll run away?"

Bi Qing said righteously, "Yes, I'm just afraid that you'll sneak out of the barrier and face danger alone!"

Since she could use her spiritual power freely here, there was no reason for her to watch Xuan Yi go there alone.

Xuan Yi sighed helplessly, knowing he couldn't persuade Bi Qing, so he said in a low voice, "Let's go. Be careful."

Biqing controlled her spiritual power, trying to get closer to the end of the thread little by little.

After moving a bit, I found that the barrier seemed to be stuck by something and couldn't be moved at all.

Biqing let go of Xuanyi's arm and her eyes fell on the silk thread that was glowing blue.

She moved a little closer, observing carefully through the barrier.

The "raindrops" embedded in the barrier grew tiny hooks, which hooked outside the barrier and pulled it to both ends.

The tiny hook suddenly trembled, and Bi Qing cried out inwardly that something was wrong. She pushed Xuan Yi away and dodged sideways.

The two flew out of the barrier in an instant.

Xuan Yi didn't know what was going on, and instinctively reached out to hold Bi Qing in his arms.

Countless tiny hooks shot through the place where Biqing had just stood like arrows, hitting the barrier with a harsh sound.

Without Biqing's spiritual power to support it, the barrier was shattered in an instant.

Xuan Yi was shocked. Before he could react, the "raindrops" without the restraint of the barrier rushed straight towards him and Biqing.

Xuan Yi, who didn't have time to open the barrier, dodged while holding Biqing.

Biqing recovered and took advantage of Xuanyi's dodge to open the barrier again to block the "raindrops" with hooks.

Biqing in the barrier pushed Xuanyi away and found that the "raindrops" that originally fell from both ends gathered at one end.

The deafening thunder sounded again, and lightning fell on the silk thread behind the "raindrops", dispersing the blue demonic power and merging with the silk thread.

The transparent silk thread turned golden and coiled outside the barrier like a snake.

Biqing couldn't help but think of the black snake in the demon world, which was also staring at her outside the barrier.

The only difference is that the "snake" in front of you is made up of silk threads, not a real snake.

Biqing tried to control the barrier to the left, and the silk thread moved left with her.

Bi Qing raised her eyebrows: "Does it have eyes?"

"It should be relying on the spiritual power on the barrier to determine the location."

Xuan Yi gathered a bit of demonic power and threw out the barrier.

Sure enough, the thread seemed not to see the demonic power and ignored it completely.

Bi Qing was embarrassed: "My spiritual power really attracts people's attention."

"Since this thread recognizes my spiritual power."

Bi Qing said to the person beside her with a disappointed and helpless look: "Xuan Yi, go to the end and look for the neon silk. Be careful."

Biqing held the hydrangea beside her and rushed out of the barrier. In the blink of an eye, she had put several feet between herself and Xuanyi. "I'll get rid of these troublesome threads and join you!"
