Chapter 468 What to do when your genius senior brother is determined to die? (34)
The swords were so deeply embedded in her skin that bone was visible. Zhao Zhao's face was pale, and although she was trembling with pain, she still gripped the Chang Le sword tightly.
"Die, you monster!"
He strode resolutely and charged towards the Qilin without hesitation, sword in hand.
Qilin suffered many injuries during its fight with Siyi, but the formidable strength it displayed was still beyond the capabilities of Zhaozhao, a novice.
After exchanging two blows with the injured top-tier demon beast, he, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage, was knocked to the ground and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The Yin-Yang Qilin stared at him, trying to use the same techniques it used against Si Yi to invade his heart, only to find that the boy's heart was like a blank sheet of paper, completely empty.
"Human minds are the most complex and sordid; I don't believe you can be that simple."
It diverted its attention from Si Yi to deal with her. Zhao Zhao noticed that the Qilin's bewitching was not working on her, so she used all her skills to deal with it. When the Qilin invaded her heart, she remained calm, and when it was about to get angry, she pretended to be in pain.
Although he was not very strong, he was at least somewhat intelligent. He used a strategy of feigning weakness to distract the enemy and divert its attention.
Si Yi was able to catch his breath. His eyes were bloodshot as he turned his head inch by inch. He saw Zhao Zhao being beaten to the ground by the Qilin. He changed the direction of the Phoenix Cry Sword in his hand and charged at the Qilin this time.
He used all his strength, and the Phoenix Cry Sword unleashed a fatal blow with unstoppable power.
Even if Qilin regained his senses, it was too late. He was no match for Si Yi in this desperate situation. Half of his golden body was pierced through his heart, and the other half of his skeletal body was shattered by the Phoenix Cry Sword.
Finally, this strange creature died under Si Yi's sword. At the same time, a token materialized from the golden unicorn's chest and slowly fell into Si Yi's hand.
As the barrier dissipated, the hazy blackness and the alternating hot and cold temperatures returned to normal. The other cultivators who had been bewitched gradually came to their senses, and the black and white palace before Si Yi's eyes had turned into ruins.
"Sword Lord? Zhao Zhao, are you alright?!"
"How did Song Bo and Shen Ning die? What happened?"
They finally realized something was wrong and rushed towards them.
Si Yi lowered her eyes, silently helped Zhao Zhao up from the ground and gave him a pill. The crimson color in her eyes immediately turned back to normal black the moment the group stepped forward.
Clad in white and bathed in blood, he turned back and gave the group a reassuring smile, calmly explaining the matter of the Yin-Yang Qilin to them.
The group had been bewitched by the Qilin and trapped in other illusions. Although they did not directly confront the Qilin, they encountered many bizarre events and monsters, and each of them had some wounds.
After hearing about the Qilin's bewitching power, they felt a chill of fear and naturally assumed that their two dead colleagues on the ground had been killed by the Qilin.
The facts were pretty much the same, but for the two of them, there would always be a thorn in Si Yi's heart.
After the Qilin was dealt with, they went their separate ways.
The other four remained in the ruins to explore, hoping to find some treasure in the legendary place where the Qilin once lived.
Si Yi, who was severely injured both physically and mentally, hurriedly left the area with Zhao Zhao, whose hands were injured.
After the Qilin died, everything on the road returned to normal, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Senior brother, if we don't have the little Nether Beast this time, we're doomed."
Having survived the ordeal, Zhao Zhao took a deep breath. This part of the story was over, and he could finally relax a little.
Si Yi treated the wounds on his hands, her eyes filled with complex emotions as she recalled the scene of Zhao Zhao rushing over to save him from danger.
"I'd be finished even without you."
"Thank you."
He suddenly thanked him seriously, making Zhao Zhao feel inexplicably uncomfortable. He smiled casually and said, "Don't go to any place just for excitement in the future. See, you suffered for it this time."
Si Yi was arrogant and looked down on everything, but he never expected that his accident would almost cost him his life.
Faced with Zhao Zhao's lecture, he unusually refrained from arguing back and listened obediently.
After treating Zhao Zhao's wounds, he began to treat his own injuries. He had many elixirs and his physique recovered relatively quickly. The only thing that was difficult to recover from was his damaged spirit and the two intertwined forces within his body.
