Ji Weihang entered the Wish Game to find her missing enemy and resolve a fifty-year-old grudge. She never expected that within the game, she'd accidentally fulfill her childhood dream of saving...
Chapter 028 Snow Falls All Over
Wei Hang caught the Danfeng Sword that was blown away and swung it backhandedly!
The flames burning on the Danfeng Sword suddenly turned into fireballs and flew towards Ying Feiqiong.
Ying Feiqiong spread out his sleeves, and a black hole appeared between his sleeves, sucking the fireball in and disappearing.
"We have already taken precautions against most attacks from heavenly-grade spiritual treasures." As she spoke, Ying Feiqiong looked down at the frost that was spreading on her body. Her methods were completely unable to melt this seemingly thin layer of frost, nor could they dispel the slowly spreading coldness in her body.
Controlling the black line to block Wei Hang's attack, she said: "Your attack reminds me of a guest official who defected from the main city a year ago, but solidified into an ice sculpture in front of everyone and eventually turned into snow all over the sky."
"No one knows who killed her. Those who asked the Territory Master were turned away... So it was you."
Wei Hang remained silent, concentrating on attacking with the Styx Sword, with the Danfeng Sword flying at his will to assist him.
The reason why we need the Minghe Sword when we already have the Danfeng Sword and the Yugu Sword is because most of the heavenly-grade spiritual treasures in this world have been targeted for prevention and are easily constrained in fights, while the Minghe Sword from the game world can catch the enemy off guard and is also very effective against evil cultivators.
She had noticed this in the game world, and after obtaining the Styx Sword through the item exchange voucher, she confirmed that the Styx Sword could absorb the power of the underworld. That is to say, it could absorb the power of the strange cultivator's body while hurting him, thus weakening his strength.
Although her body was covered by frost and could not change at will, Ying Feiqiong's strength was not affected. For a while, they could not do anything to each other.
During this time of testing her patience and endurance, Ying Feiqiong began to chat as usual:
"You know what? I've been thinking that Tongmin died too early and my life is boring."
"Then you go down and accompany your senior sister." Ji Weihang swung his sword to knock away the black line and said coldly.
"How can I bear to do that?" Ying Feiqiong touched her chest. Yun Tongmin's heart was beating in her body, just as vivid as before. She smiled and said, "You also know that if a cultivator does not enter the reincarnation cycle, we will not be able to meet in the underworld. By then, I will lose the heart and will not be able to see the person. It will be all in vain."
This topic seemed to make her sentimental, and she suddenly began to reminisce about the past, "Do you know how your senior sister and I met?"
Wei Hangcai was not interested and focused on attacking. Ying Feiqiong did not care either and said to herself:
“At that time, I had just been appointed as the Young City Lord. There was an evil cultivator who used the name of our Yingping City to swindle people outside. I went to his house and beat him until he knelt down and begged for mercy. It was at that time that your senior sister broke in.
"She was a chivalrous woman who saw the man crying and begging for mercy under my hands, and heard that he wanted to pay tribute to me, so she thought I was really the man's umbrella, and she chopped me down with her sword!
"Really, how can I be interested in that kind of person?
“Our identities are both sensitive, and for the sake of peace, I naturally wouldn’t take action. I let her chop me with a sword and tie me up.
"After she realized it was a misunderstanding, she let me go immediately. To express her apology, she even treated me to a meal... I have to say, the food at Yelilou is really expensive and unpalatable.
“I heard that she was traveling and didn’t want to go back to Yingping City, so I offered to go with her, and she agreed.
"... Most people wouldn't agree to this, right? Who would agree to travel with a strange cultivator who fought with them the first time they met? Everyone knows that strange cultivators are the most vindictive, and they are not afraid of being assassinated by me out of hatred."
Ying Feiqiong smiled and knocked away Wei Hang's talisman, and the flying snow appeared again.
"Senior sister is open and honest. She is not as dark-minded as you and doesn't think so much." Wei Hang said sarcastically.
Ying Feiqiong smiled and said, "You admire your senior sister very much. But it's not right."
"I asked her, it's not that she didn't think that much, she just felt that we shouldn't assume someone's behavior with malice." Ying Feiqiong said with a smile, "Silly, right? But she was only twenty years old at the time, after all, and she dared to trust others. Wasn't it the same when you first came down the mountain?"
"Although I am hundreds of years older than her, she never treats me as a senior..." As Ying Feiqiong spoke, her speech slowed down, her voice became lower, and her body's speed in dodging attacks also gradually slowed down.
Finally t stopped.
She couldn't move her body, she looked at Wei Hang, but her tone was light, "Oh, you got hit."
Looking at Ying Feiqiong who was suspended on the ground like an ice sculpture, Wei Hang also stopped attacking.
She made a hand gesture, and suddenly ice snow patterns bloomed behind Ying Feiqiong, talismans exploded, and the surrounding spiritual energy penetrated into Ying Feiqiong's body through the ice snow patterns behind her, turning into a fierce chill that intensified the freezing.
Frost appeared with a crackling sound, and the dark power in Ying Feiqiong's body was gradually frozen.
This is the Frost Death Talisman that Wei Hang has studied for thirty years. It is an improvement on the basic talisman Ice and Snow Talisman created by Bai Shenqi, the lord of Baiping City. It can freeze strange cultivators and cause their death.
First it was the body, then the dark power, the spiritual veins, and the origin. After the whole body was frozen and solidified into an ice sculpture, the explosion of power from the origin inside out would cause the ice sculpture to explode, like a grand snowstorm.
This was her original purpose, not the spiritual gate.
If she had aimed at Lingguan from the beginning, she should have held the headless Ying Feiqiong and stabbed directly in.
It was precisely because she knew that the spinal whip was still there, and that Ying Feiqiong must have been prepared and the success rate was not high, that she attacked Lingguan half-seriously and half-falsely. In fact, the real murderous intention was to quietly stick the talisman on Ying Feiqiong when she approached him.
Later, the constantly created flying snow and cold environment were all to cover up the effect of the Frost Death Talisman to prevent Ying Feiqiong from discovering it in advance.
The disadvantage of the Frost Death Talisman is that it takes too long to prepare. If it is discovered in advance and the talisman is removed, the effort will be wasted.
Ying Feiqiong's body was transforming into an ice sculpture. He looked at her motionlessly, but his voice rang out: "I was just thinking that the power of the talisman was not enough to kill Miao Yin." This was a basic spell that relied on dark power and spiritual power to transmit sound.
Miaoyin is the out-of-body strange cultivator who defected from the main city and was mentioned in their previous conversation.
Wei Hang ignored her and drew a shared memory symbol and slapped it on Ying Feiqiong's cold and stiff arm.
The other party was about to die, so there was no problem in sharing some memories. As for why the memories were not viewed unilaterally, it was due to the limitation of being in a similar realm.
If you are in the Jindan stage or below, you can watch it unilaterally.
Ying Feiqiong's memory is in a mess. Unlike ordinary people's memories, which are not arranged in chronological order, countless memory scenes are flying around the center, with thick ink and colors, as if she has been recalling these memories in her mind.
Wei Hang saw the face of Senior Sister Yun Tongmin flashing by in it. Frowning slightly, she did not enter these memories directly, but began to search for memories related to Senior Sister Yun Tongmin.
It turned out that all the memories including that of my senior sister were here.
What Ying Feiqiong kept recalling were the memories about Yun Tongmin.
Glancing at Ying Feiqiong, she clicked on the picture that was frozen at the moment when her senior sister was pointing her sword at her, with light shining in from behind, giving her a layer of hazy golden glow.
There was a loud bang.
She looked up and saw the door was kicked open. A woman in a dress embroidered with blue cloud patterns stood at the door. Her eyes were burning with anger as she looked at her. Her clear voice echoed in the room, her anger was evident in her words: "Ying Feiqiong, as the young city lord of Guiyu, you actually colluded with evil cultivators and used young men to make medicine!"
"Oh." "She" kicked away the evil cultivator begging for mercy, crushed his restless hand that was about to touch the knife, and sneered, "Isn't this the human talent praised by everyone in the city? The people of Mingyan Sect are no better than this, putting the blame on others without asking any questions."
"Don't try to quibble! I heard it all. He said he wanted to increase the tribute to Yingping City." Yun Tongmin pointed the sword in her hand. The light behind her just happened to shine on her body, coating her with a layer of hazy golden light, making it difficult to see her expression. "Today, I will enforce justice on behalf of heaven and get rid of you, the scourge of Guiyu!"
Looking at his impulsive senior sister, Wei Hang was a little stunned.
She had never seen her senior sister like this before. In her memory, her senior sister had always been gentle, tough, mature and steady, not this lively, arrogant, or even a little reckless.
When was this senior sister?
Ying Feiqiong's memory quickly gave feedback: fifty-eight years ago.
That was when she was ten years old.
Not long after, she met Ying Feiqiong for the first time.
When the "she" in his memory sneered and surrendered to being trapped by his senior sister, Wei Hang came back to his senses and continued to work. He quickly flipped through his memories, and pictures flashed by quickly:
After their previous worries were resolved and they decided to travel together, they did not have a fixed destination, but just wandered around randomly. Whenever they heard of an evil cultivator or a vicious beast causing trouble, they would rush over, sometimes making it in time and sometimes not.
When there were no incidents happening anywhere, they would go around enjoying the scenery. Yun Tongmin loved the scenery of nature. She treated all living things with care and praised any scenery.
In order to see the highest scenery on the continent, they climbed up the highest mountain, Na'er Snow Peak, with bare hands and left their names on the snow on the top of the mountain; in order to explore the secrets in the desert, they wandered in the desolate sea of sand, but gained nothing, and only helped the caravans that encountered the sandstorm to find an oasis; in order to know whether the deep-sea treasure exists, they chased the traces of the mermaids in the deep sea, but accidentally rescued the mermaids caught by bounty hunters and became friends of the mermaids...
Occasionally, they would return to Mingyan Sect together, and Weihang could see her younger self flashing through her memory.
Countless scenes flashed by, and finally the memory of Yun Tongmin's existence stopped at the day fifty years ago.
"My junior sister's eighteenth birthday is coming up soon. I'm going back to celebrate for her. Do you want to come with me?"
Yun Tongmin stood on the top of the mountain, looking back, the wind blowing her hair and the hem of her clothes.
After this scene ended, there was a long blank in my memory, and it jumped directly to five days after the birthday ceremony.
"Do you like the memories that I deleted on purpose?" Ying Feiqiong suddenly said, as if she knew that she had already seen what she wanted to see.
Her body had almost completely turned into an ice sculpture from the inside out, and the sound produced by the sound transmission spell was intermittent.
"You haven't got Bai Zhiyu's memory, right? Otherwise, it wouldn't be a waste of time. I advise you to give up."
"What is it that you are trying so hard to hide even if you have deleted your memory?" Ji Weihang's voice was cold, but with a hint of doubt, "I don't think there is anyone who is worthy of your protection like this."
Ying Feiqiong's laughter was heard in the air, "I don't remember."
Ji Weihang knew this was impossible. She quickly flipped through her memories, only to find that the memory she had deleted was also deleted.
"You didn't delete the memory, you just had someone take it away." She said firmly. Otherwise, why would you delete this memory as well?
"Is it someone from the Wanjian Sect?" During the time that Ying Feiqiong was out of the game, the sect he was most suspicious of was the Wanjian Sect.
She didn't get an answer, the Frost Death Talisman had reached its final stage.
Ying Feiqiong has completely turned into an ice sculpture.
The white spine whip, the bright red heart and the pitch-black ball representing the origin lie quietly in the clear and transparent ice, like a freeze frame of life.
After a minute, the origin will explode from the inside out and turn into a snowflake.
Looking at the faint smile on the ice sculpture's face, she suddenly remembered the scene fifty years ago when Ying Feiqiong hugged her limp senior sister, held her beating red heart, turned her head and smiled at her from afar, and mouthed "Happy Birthday".
After a pause, she reached out to break the ice sculpture and held the somewhat cold heart.
After I touched it and felt the temperature, my heart slowly started beating again.
Boom, boom, boom.
The heartbeat was regular and steady, yet also cold and merciless.
She did not feel the presence of her senior sister.
Suppressing the desire to crush it, she watched the barrier slowly dissipate after Ying Feiqiong's death. The sky outside the barrier, the starry night and the crescent moon were as high and bright as ever.
The origin exploded at this moment, turning the remaining ice into flying snow all over the sky, covering his body.
