Chapter 281 Play with Me?
“The seal of the Hall of Rebirth is reinforced every year,” Gong Yuhe said calmly. “Even if we hadn’t arrived in time this time, the seal shouldn’t have been broken so quickly.”
Yun Fuzhao looked at him, "What do you mean?"
"The seal must have been broken beforehand."
Yun Fuzhao recalled that the seal had been broken when she came before. "Didn't you repair it that time?"
"It was repaired, but it was damaged again without our knowledge."
This is interesting.
Just as everyone was at a loss, a disciple rushed up in a panic.
"Something bad is going to happen!"
Yun Fuzhao can't stand hearing those words anymore. Could things get any worse than this?
"News has come from the human realm that they have been attacked by ferocious beasts."
Everyone's heart sank.
"We must go and save the human race now."
Gong Yuhe looked at Yun Fuzhao: "Go and inform the major sects."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than another disciple ran up, his face pale. "Suddenly, many black spirit beasts have appeared outside, their ranks indiscernible. They are attacking cultivators indiscriminately."
Not only that, Yun Fuzhao even received a text message from Yu Zhiyue.
It is said that the Northern Continent was also attacked by black spirit beasts.
These mysterious mythical beasts are mostly summoned by the four ferocious beasts.
Yun Fuzhao dared not linger. She bid farewell to the others and immediately set off to return to the Boundless Sword Sect.
“Yu Ze, Qi Huai, I’m afraid the Demon Realm and the Monster Realm are also under attack by the black spirit beasts. You should go back and take a look.”
Yu Ze nodded. "Okay."
Qi Huai: "Notify me immediately if anything happens."
On the short journey back to the Boundless Sword Sect, she encountered several of the black spirit beasts that the disciple had mentioned.
It somewhat resembles a jackal, with slender limbs that look like skin covering bones. A crimson flame burns along its back, extending from its skull to its tail.
It was strangely shaped; she had never seen anything like it before.
[Yun Family Brigade 5, by Ziqian: He somewhat resembles the ghost jackal recorded in the history of cultivation.]
[He Yu, Fourth Guard of the Yun Family Brigade: Only the Four Great Ferocious Beasts can summon this kind of spirit beast.]
The powerful beings in the upper realm all had a bad feeling. They had taken every precaution, but they hadn't expected that while they had guarded against one side, they hadn't guarded against the other.
When Yun Fuzhao arrived at the Wuyai Sword Sect, the sect's protective formation had already been activated, keeping the ghost jackals outside.
They attacked the sect's protective formation like madmen. A ninth-grade sect protective formation is no joke; those ghost jackals died one by one.
"metropolitan!"
The disciples inside the formation saw the joy on her face and exclaimed, "What happened?!"
"These things are like locusts; you can't kill them all no matter how hard you try."
Yun Fuzhao grasped Wuji, and a dark blue flame covered it, burning the locusts to death one by one.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, the disciples immediately activated the formation to let her in.
"Where is the Grand Elder?"
In this critical moment, she couldn't even see him.
"Senior Sister Yun," Song Ying rushed over and replied upon hearing her words, "The First Elder and the Fifth Elder have gone to the human realm to protect the people."
"Master has emerged from seclusion?"
Yun Fuzhao was somewhat surprised, "When did this happen?"
"It was when you went to subdue Qiongqi that the Fifth Elder saw the seal on the Hall of Rebirth was loosening and went to help..."
Since Master has emerged from seclusion, it means he has most likely already broken through.
As Yun Fuzhao pondered, the white jade at his waist gleamed.
It is Xie Wan.
Xie Wan: All the major sects are now under attack from these unidentified black spirit beasts. Yun Fuzhao, do you have any solutions?
good question.
She doesn't know either.
A day passed, and the ghouls outside showed no sign of stopping. After observing carefully for a while, Yun Fuzhao finally discovered why they kept coming in endless numbers.
The flesh and skin of these ghost jackals, which were torn apart by the formation, will all be transformed back into a complete ghost jackal.
The more chaotic the formation becomes, the more this monster will split.
If things continue like this, even the political and legal system will eventually collapse. Besides, they can't stay within the sect forever.
If the four ferocious beasts were to reappear, all living beings in the four realms would suffer.
Yun Fuzhao: [Powerful beings, how can we reseal the ferocious beast?]
[Yun Family Brigade 5, Ziqian: There's no particularly good solution for the time being. The only compromise is for those half-step-to-heavenly-ascended elders to sacrifice their lives along with half of the dragon clan's spiritual power.]
Yun Fuzhao: [Is that an exaggeration?]
[Yun Family Squad Guard He Yu 4: This isn't an exaggeration. This is the worst-case scenario, if all four ferocious beasts were to appear.]
Just as Yun Fuzhao was pondering, Que Chi, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly came to find her.
"How did you come?"
Que Chi hesitated, his expression complex.
"What's your expression?"
Que Yu remained silent for a moment before finally speaking: "Although I don't want to admit it, perhaps he knows a solution right now."
After a moment's reaction, Yun Fuzhao realized that the "he" he was referring to was Que Yu.
"Even if Que Yu knew, he wouldn't tell us."
He's clearly trying to help the ferocious beast.
Yun Fuzhao heard that the ghost jackals were attacking everywhere, and none of the other realms were spared, except for the Ghost Realm, which remained unscathed.
It's hard not to wonder if he made some kind of deal with the ferocious beast.
“If he doesn’t want to,” Que Chi sighed, “he won’t come looking for me on his own initiative.”
"He came to see you?"
How come he's still standing here unharmed?
Que Chi nodded. "I never imagined that one day we would be able to communicate so calmly and peacefully face to face."
"A weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—he's up to no good," Yun Fuzhao snorted. "He's probably plotting something again."
"Tsk tsk, you're just making such malicious assumptions about me?"
A voice sounded from behind her.
Yun Fuzhao was startled and immediately jumped back.
Que Yu crossed his arms and looked at her with a leisurely air.
Yun Fuzhao gritted his teeth, "You two conspired together?"
Que Chi immediately denied it, saying, "I didn't know he would come."
With her expression softening, Que Yu spoke: "Do I need to conspire with him to come see you?"
"..."
Yun Fuzhao went into high alert. "What exactly are you trying to do? You released the ferocious beast, and then offered us a solution? Are you kidding me?"
Que Yu chuckled, his eyes fixed on her. "Then will you play with me?"
Que Chi approached Yun Fuzhao without making a sound and answered for her: "No."
Yun Fuzhao nodded. "Who wants to play with you?"
The sight of the two sharing a common hatred was strangely jarring, and the smile on Que Yu's lips vanished completely. "You have no choice but to play, whether you like it or not. You have no other option right now."
Que Yu approached Yun Fuzhao step by step. Que Chi wanted to block her way, but his eyes narrowed, and Que Chi knelt down with a thud, his face pale.
Yun Fuzhao's expression was solemn. Just as he was about to draw his sword, Que Yu grabbed his wrist and whispered, "Don't be nervous, I won't do anything to you."
His words are hardly convincing given his character.
“Yun Fuzhao, cooperate with me to open the miracle.” Que Yu looked down at her, “Then the ferocious beast can be sealed away.”
