Chapter 99 Chapter 99 "Nothing in the world can compare to...
Biqing turned into a green light to divert the tangled silk thread.
Xuan Yi took advantage of Bi Qing's absence and quickly rushed to the end of the clouds.
Xuan Yi broke through the clouds, tore a hole in the dark clouds, and emerged into a golden light.
Xuan Yi narrowed his eyes uncomfortably.
His neck felt tight, and Xuan Yi's pupils shrank suddenly.
In just a moment, his hands and feet were bound by cold silk ribbons.
Before he could break free from the silk ribbons, a pulling sensation spread from his limbs, and his entire body was pulled into the air by the silk ribbons.
The force was like several people trying hard to straighten out a wrinkled piece of cloth.
At the same time, the silk ribbon wrapped around Xuan Yi's neck gradually tightened, depriving him of his breath bit by bit.
The veins on Xuan Yi's forehead bulged as he fought against the force that wanted to take his life.
The blue demonic power transformed into a sharp blade and slashed at the silk ribbon that bound Xuan Yi.
"Tearing up the neon silk and purifying the water source will become a pipe dream."
The sound of colorful clouds came from nowhere, echoing in the golden sky.
Xuan Yi's heart tightened, and the blue demonic power turned into a wisp of smoke and dissipated before it touched the silk ribbon.
The silk ribbon around his neck tightened slightly, forcing Xuan Yi to tilt his head back slightly.
Caiyun appeared above him at some point, looking down at him condescendingly with her eyes lowered.
Watching Xuan Yi struggling, Caiyun said indifferently, "The rainbow silk is extremely fragile. If you tear it, you'll regret it."
She smiled and said, "Or do you care more about your own life than the neon silk?"
Xuan Yi stared at her coldly and spoke with difficulty, "Why did you trick Biqing and I into coming here?"
"Did I lie to you?"
Cai Yu chuckled and adjusted the colorful silk draped over her body. "Why didn't you tell me that it was you who caused Biqing to come here with you, and why did I clear the way for you under the clouds?"
"You'll only hurt her if you stay with her."
"My business with her has nothing to do with you!"
Xuan Yi shouted harshly, "It's not even your turn to take care of this!"
The neon silk around his neck tightened again. Xuan Yi groaned and taunted, "If you were truly close to Biqing's parents, how could you not know that they perished in the great war between immortals and demons?"
Xuan Yi gasped and laughed, "You don't dare to offend Chisong, so you'll give Biqing a chance. That way, even if something does happen to Biqing, you can openly shirk responsibility, saying that Biqing was seduced by a wolf demon like me and came to you to ask for it..."
The feeling of suffocation intensified, and Xuan Yi tilted his head back due to the constriction of the neon silk, unable to utter a single sound.
Xuan Yi raised the corner of his mouth in pain.
He had been hearing the words that he was not worthy of Biqing since he followed Biqing to search for the artifact.
Even if these gods haven't said enough of this kind of words, he has heard enough of them.
Seeing Xuan Yi's smug yet somewhat provocative expression, Caiyun snorted coldly, "Shameless!"
What on earth is this wolf demon so proud of? !
A green spiritual power came from under her feet. Caiyun's eyebrows moved slightly, and she disappeared in front of Xuan Yi in the blink of an eye.
The silk ribbon around Xuan Yi's neck loosened slightly.
Xuan Yi was able to catch his breath for a moment.
The moment the colorful clouds disappeared, a green figure broke through the clouds.
Biqing saw Xuan Yi being bound in mid-air by the silk. Without even taking a breath to rest, she landed beside Xuan Yi and tried to cut the silk ribbon with her spiritual power.
"No!" Xuan Yi hurriedly stopped him, "This is neon silk!"
Biqing raised her hand but it stopped in mid-air.
Since she couldn't cut it off, Biqing reached out to pull at the silk wrapped around Xuan Yi's neck.
The neon silk was like a plaster, tightly attached to Xuan Yi's neck, not giving Bi Qing the slightest chance to pull it off.
Biqing frowned.
This is clearly a trap set by Caiyun!
"Biqing."
Xuan Yi said gently, "Please take this silk back to the demon world and give it to Ah Jue."
"I don't want to!"
Bi Qing refused without hesitation. She raised her hand and sealed Xuan Yi's demonic power, stopping his thoughts of suicide. "If it's a good thing, then forget it! If it's not, go back and tell him yourself!"
Xuan Yi sighed softly, as if blaming Biqing for her sensitivity.
Biqing looked at the silk binding Xuan Yi's limbs and couldn't help but feel suspicious.
She transformed her spiritual power into a sword and raised her hand to cut the silk.
Xuan Yi's pupils suddenly shrank, and he called out in a panic, "Biqing!"
"Wait a minute!"
Biqing's raised hand stopped in mid-air again.
This time it was Caiyun, not Xuan Yi, who stopped her.
Caiyun appeared before Biqing without warning and reminded her, "Biqing, do you know what you are about to cut off?"
Biqing nodded vigorously: "I know, neon silk." As she spoke, she lowered her raised hand an inch.
"Since you knew it was neon silk, why did you cut it off?"
Caiyun frowned and asked, "Is the rainbow silk less valuable to you than the life of this wolf demon?"
Biqing pondered for a moment and said, "That's not the case."
Caiyun's puffed out chest relaxed slightly for a moment, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The next moment, several green lights fell, accompanied by the sharp and piercing sound of breaking brocade, and Caiyun froze in place.
Not only Caiyun, but Xuanyi was also stunned.
Long silk fell on the clouds like a celestial being scattering flowers. Bi Qing dissipated the long sword transformed by her spiritual power and said word by word: "Nothing in the world is as precious as life."
She took a step forward, staring at Caiyun with frosty eyes. "Forget the rainbow silk. Even if you threaten me with the Jade Purifying Bottle, I will still choose Xuanyi."
Caiyun lowered her eyes and looked at Biqing's thin face with a hint of arrogance.
After a moment, she shook her head and raised the corner of her mouth helplessly: "As expected of their daughter, she even made the same choice."
Biqing didn't understand what she meant: "What do you mean?"
Caiyun didn't answer, but asked, "Is your immortal bone still there?"
Biqing became even more suspicious, and after hesitating for a moment, she nodded.
Caiyun raised her hand, and a strand of colorful silk thread fell on the hydrangea on Biqing's waist, merging with it.
Biqing was completely confused and had no idea what Caiyun was going to do.
Caiyun smiled and asked, "Biqing, did you cut the neon silk because you really thought the wolf demon's life was far more important than the artifact?"
"If sacrificing that wolf demon could save the entire demon world from disaster, would you still make the same choice?"
"Of course not."
Biqing said, "If it's genuine neon silk, I'll find another way to remove it."
Xuan Yi's lowered eyes were filled with shock.
This neon silk... is actually fake?
Biqing shrugged and said bluntly, "I'm very greedy. I want Xuanyi, the demon world, and the divine weapon. I want them all."
"A red flower becomes redder when it is near a red flower, and a black flower becomes blacker when it is near a black flower." Caiyun glanced at Xuanyi, "You are quite honest."
"It's just what I think."
Biqing said, "Fairy Caiyun, you went to so much trouble to trick Xuanyi and me here. You can't possibly want me to help you destroy the fake silk."
Caiyun said bluntly: "I want to kill this wolf demon, so that you won't be dragged down by him in the future."
Biqing was even more speechless, and looked at Xuan Yi with eyes full of apology.
It was obvious that she was the one who dragged Xuan Yi down more.
Xuan Yi's pupils trembled slightly, but he did not refute Caiyun's words.
"Don't listen to her nonsense."
Biqing held Xuanyi's hand and said, "Between you and me, no one is a burden to the other."
The environment in the demon world was harsh, but Xuan Yi didn't even say anything about abandoning himself, who was useless, in the middle of the road and leaving on his own.
At that time, Xuan Yi didn't feel that he was a burden, just like now, he didn't feel that Xuan Yi was a burden.
There was no need for them to worry about anything illusory between them.
Xuan Yi raised the corner of his mouth and smiled faintly: "I don't take it to heart."
He really didn't take it to heart.
Having been scolded so many times, he has long been accustomed to not listening.
Caiyun saw that their relationship was far from something she could change. She let out a breath and made a final attempt to enlighten her old friend's son: "Biqing, do you know what the end result will be if you... stay with this wolf demon?"
She replaced the word "stay together" with "walk together".
"I don't care."
Bi Qing smiled calmly: "Whatever the final outcome will be, it is all my own choice and has nothing to do with others."
"Even if...even if the real body disappears?" Caiyun asked with a frown.
Biqing nodded: "Even if my true body dissipates, my body and soul are annihilated, and I am forever free from reincarnation, I, Biqing, will find a way to purify myself."
With every word Biqing spoke, Xuan Yi's hands, hidden under his sleeves, tightened a little, and his heart became more anxious.
A layer of murderous intent and regret hung between Caiyun's brows.
She regretted letting Xuan Yi go.
"Fairy Caiyun," Biqing said, "Even if you take Xuanyi's life today, I will still continue to search for the artifact."
She said, "Even if I die one day because of this, I believe there will still be gods who will do it."
Caiyun pursed her lips and asked, "Biqing, is it worth it for that wolf demon?"
Bi Qing's eyelashes curved as she smiled, "I'm not just doing this for Xuan Yi."
Just like Xuan Yi's search for a method of purification was never just for himself.
Caiyun was silent for a moment, then said, "I've already given you the things, but not for the wolf demon."
Biqing was overjoyed and thanked her respectfully, "Thank you, Fairy Caiyun, for helping me out for my aunt's sake!"
Caiyun suppressed a smile and said, "If the Red Matsu God knew that you dragged her into this, he would be furious."
Bi Qing said seriously, "If it's crooked, get angry again, and your nose will be straightened back."
Biqing's cheerful words brought back the past that weighed on Caiyun's mind, making her eyes red.
"Fairy Caiyun, thank you."
Biqing saluted respectfully, and caught a glimpse of Xuan Yi's gray robe from the corner of her eye. She frowned and tugged at his sleeve.
Before Xuan Yi could even begin to bow reluctantly, Caiyun interrupted him coldly, "I won't accept your courtesy, wolf demon."
This was exactly what Xuan Yi wanted.
He stood straighter in his place.
Since Caiyun said so, Biqing didn't force Xuanyi to be polite. She asked, "Fairy Caiyun, how do I use the Rainbow Silk?"
The feeling of trying to draw water with a bamboo basket is enough to experience it once.
Caiyun patiently instructed, "Summon it from your hydrangea and inject your own spiritual energy into it. Then the neon silk will stretch out into a net, absorbing the foul air."
"The neon silk contains a portion of my spiritual power. Once we reach the demon world, that spiritual power should remain in your embroidered ball and won't be able to attach to the silk ribbon. The wolf demon should be able to handle the demon power issue himself."
"The amount of foul energy the neon silk can absorb is limited. Once the neon silk has completely changed color, you can take it to seek out the Red Pine Goddess and ask her for a way to purify the foul energy."
Biqing asked in surprise: "Auntie knows?"
"She is your father's sister, so she naturally knows."
Caiyun waved her hand, and the three of them returned to the main hall. She turned her back and said, "Let's go."
A subtle sound came from behind, and Caiyun said, "No need to bow, just get busy."
Biqing bowed, took Xuanyi, and left without looking back.
On the way back, Biqing said, "Xuan Yi, I won't go back to the demon world with you."
Anyway, if I go to the demon world, I can only watch helplessly and can't help at all.
She untied the embroidered ball from her waist and handed it to Xuan Yi: "I'm going to the Qingjing Sect to return the Immaculate Bell to Cai Yu's mother."
Xuan Yi paused for a moment, then took the embroidered ball and instructed, "When you're done, go to the village and wait for me. I'll be back soon after I've finished telling Ajue about things."
