Chapter 37 35. They're about to find us.
The moon was bright and the stars sparse, the water gently flowed, and the clouds drifted far off.
Shadows fluctuated under the eaves like mountains, sketching out a sense of heaviness.
Tian Liuli and Lin Qingque stood at the junction of moonlight and night, watching the illusion in the sky slowly dissipate, their faces somewhat grim.
"It's actually fake."
The two exchanged glances, anger flaming in their eyes—they had been played by Liu Ruoxue.
"What do we do now?"
Lin Qingque's slightly pale face was etched with indescribable anger and urgency.
Just the thought of her senior brother in that woman's hands made her feel as if ten thousand ants were crawling in her heart.
Although she knew Tian Liuli had the United Heart Curse, which could sense that her senior brother's Primordial Yang had not been breached.
But... her senior brother being so handsome, surely that woman wouldn't use him for some facial cleanser or seafood noodles, right?
Lin Qingque was extremely anxious.
Tian Liuli, however, had her face darkened, equally silent.
She had forgotten the last time she got angry.
It seemed like tens of thousands of years... no, it must have been just a few hours ago, that Lin Qingque was irritated.
Great, that so-called Sword Sect walker had reminded her of some unpleasant memories once again.
This was the first... second time she had been stifled in the lower realm.
No matter what, she had to teach this woman a lesson.
Just as the two suppressed their rage, preparing to give her an unforgettable lesson, Liu Ruoxue, carrying Xu Yuan's figure, appeared in the sky once more.
"What do you two say?"
This time, she was a thousand zhang away from them, evidently cautious of the previous incident.
"Won't you cripple your own limbs yet? Do you really need to watch him die before you're willing to give in?"
Liu Ruoxue said with a winning smile.
Her face was full of confidence, as if she had total control over the two of them.
Despite knowing it was false, seeing "herself" wearing such a smile, Liu Ruoxue was still dissatisfied.
Why did she look just like the villains in those storybooks, laughing in exactly the same way?
However, what worried her more was whether this would actually work?
Lin Qingque and Tian Liuli looked at each other.
"What shall we do?"
As sworn enemies, they had never imagined that there would be a day where they would join forces with each other, and that this partnership would come so soon.
"Hmph, since we know you are an illusion, how can we guarantee that the one in your hands isn't as well?"
Tian Liuli said coldly, "If you want me to believe you, first provide some proof."
"Proof?"
Tian Liuli, in a panic, was actually caught off guard by the sneak attack and sent flying, crashing into the wall and stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Lin, you fool, have you lost your mind!?"
But soon, Tian Liuli rose from the rubble, but this time, her face lacked its previous composure and ease, and her flawless red dress was now tainted with a touch of dust.
Her eyebrows rose slightly, and a hint of anger appeared on her usually unruffled face.
"You actually did something so foolish? Do you really think that by listening to her words, Mr. Xu would be saved?"
"Brother... he must not die!"
Lin Qingque lifted her head, her starry eyes filled with the hazy madness.
"If... you're unwilling to take action, then I'll have to do it for you."
With that, she lightly stamped her Jade Foot, and her whole body lifted into the air as she stood suspended.
"Brother, heh heh... my Brother, I'm coming to save you."
"You're simply a madwoman!"
Tian Liuli yelled angrily, her brow furrowed: "You really think I'm afraid of you?!"
Two fierce balls of spiritual light suddenly erupted in the sky, like dual suns shining down.
Immediately after, the two turned into two shooting stars and crashed into each other violently.
Boom!
Boom!!
Boom!!!
The thunder-like sounds continued to ring out in the sky, making the earth tremble faintly.
Liu Ruoxue stared blankly at the scene before her, which could be described as shocking and outrageous.
No matter how she imagined it, she couldn't fathom that the two were still only at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Her previous judgment was not wrong; even with the sword pellet in her belly and the ancient sword in her hand.
If she were involved in the fray, she too might face total annihilation.
And even more terrifying was the fact that this Xu Yuan before her eyes had actually won the affection of two outstanding beauties of the heavens.
And it seemed that he was even somewhat disdainful of them both, not only that, but he was also thinking of plotting against both women.
What, exactly, was he thinking?
Liu Ruoxue's curiosity about him was piqued.
But this time, her curiosity was different from before; it was simply out of sheer interest.
Compared to Liu Ruoxue, Xu Yuan seemed to be barely moved by the scene before him.
He just casually watched the spectacle as if it were a play.
Suddenly, he chuckled lowly, "You remembered what I told you before, didn't you?"
Liu Ruoxue was taken aback, and said, "I remembered. So what? Is it time? But didn't you say to wait until they find us before we act?"
"Yes," Xu Yuan replied, his gaze distant, watching the buildings collapsing one by one.
"They... are about to find us."
