Chapter 100 The Strange View in the Stone Cottage

Looking at these five huge stones, Hua Qiyue shook her head and sighed slightly, saying, “If these five huge stones come down, we’ll all die. Predecessor, why not make it easier and let them come down directly?”

She really didn’t want to learn from that little guy since it was enough to have Tianpi. However, it suddenly occurred to Hua Qiyue that at the beginning, Tianpi had also been impolite to her.

But why, would Tianpi teach the Spirit Summoning Art to her? And why couldn’t he come out of the Mysterious World? All kinds of questions were also reminding Hua Qiyue that Tianpi was unusual, too.

She should equally watch out for him!

After repeatedly thinking about it, she had no one to rely on except several maidservants around her, Tianci and Old Madame Hua.

“Hahaha, enjoy yourself!” That little guy disappeared after saying this with an evil tone.

Hua Qiyue looked at the ground and its color had turned into the same color the huge stones had. While Yun Shimo sat with his legs crossed and closed eyes to rest his mind.

Hua Qiyue rubbed her eyes and thought, ‘Is it true? Even Yun Shimo has no way out?’

‘Why did he sit down? Did that move go as far as to pull his testicle?’

Hua Qiyue looked at Yun Shimo’s facial expression, and he looked fine without being pale, without hemorrhage, also, without any anxiety. Being calm like this was really difficult for ordinary people.

Hua Qiyue refrained from asking him the reason and walked around, knocked here and there to see if she could find the exit.

But she gained nothing but disappointment.

If such a stone cottage was that easy to be broken down, that little guy would have lived in vain for more than ten thousand years.

Hua Qiyue walked to the stone in the east and touched it. There was also a stream of inconstant breath that came into her palms.

Hua Qiyue frowned and heavily punched that wall, but nothing happened, just like throwing a big stone into an abyss but hearing nothing.

Hua Qiyue was annoyed.

She couldn’t be as calm as Yun Shimo.

Perhaps, she still cared about something in her heart. She thought that Tianci would be worried if she delayed her return. She also couldn’t wait to go back home right then and kiss her little Tianci. At that very moment, again, she felt that it was good to be alive and stay with the people she loved.

Finally, Hua Qiyue couldn’t find the exit and came to sit beside Yun Shimo without being affected by anything, saying, “Yun Shimo, what are you doing? Inhaling anima energy? Or were you injured heavily just now?”

Hua Qiyue held her jaw and asked gently. However, Yun Shimo still kept stationary and completely refused to answer her quetions.

Yun Shimo, just like a calm monk without any worldly passions, heard nothing and smelled nothing, and there was no change on his face.

Hua Qiyue frowned. Finally, she saw wisps of silvery white anima energies getting into Yun Shimo’s body, was he… cultivating?

Hua Qiyue was suddenly speechless.

She was deeply worried, and yet he was calmly cultivating! Because superficially, Yun Shimo didn’t get injured. Since he wasn’t curing wounds, then he must be cultivating.

“Yun Shimo, do you want to get out of here or not? Are you cultivating?” Hua Qiyue was outraged, enough to spit out blood. Yun Shimo seemed like he had nothing to be concerned about, was this the reason why he was so calm?

Hua Qiyue stretched out her hands and pushed Yun Shimo. Although it was taboo to be disturbed during cultivation, she knew that this man was doing a light meditation.

He would react immediately when something happened.

However, at the moment when Hua Qiyue touched Yun Shimo, she only felt faint and surprisingly, the scene changed.

Hua Qiyue confusedly looked at what happened in front of her—Zhou Zhicheng was heavily slapping on Tianci’s face with a snapping sound, as if he were slapping her heart, which drove her into a fit!

However, she couldn’t move!

All of a sudden, Hua Qiyue understood that what she saw was her hallucination, which was actually the reflection of her past dream! And the reflection was made by this stone cottage. This kind of memory was the thing that she was most scared of. Every slap directly fell on her heart and cruelly tore down her entire body!

There was nothing but hurt!

“You b*stard! Jerk… Your mother has already died, don’t let me see you again!”

Zhou Zhicheng’s voice echoed around her ears. Hua Qiyue had never seen that before! Did she go back in time? Or…

Tianci lowered his head injuredly with big drops of tears falling down. And there were five bright-red finger prints on Tianci’s left face, which made Hua Qiyue extremely distressed.

“Dad… Mom… Did Mom really die? Why… why didn’t I see her? Why didn’t we hold a burial?”

Tianci murmured and asked. While Zhou Zhicheng laughed coldly, “B*stard, don’t annoy me, piss off!” Saying thing, he kicked Tianci heavily, and then Tianci immediately fell down and rolled for several rounds on the ground. Finally, his forehead hit a parterre aside and resulted in a small hole on his head with blood unceasingly flowing out.

Tianci got up in panic and looked at his furious “father”. At the same time, a woman walked in leisurely who turned out to be Princess Huizhen!

Everything happened here was cruelly torturing Hua Qiyue’s heart.

And then, the scene changed again. Hua Qiyue only saw that Princess Huizhen raised the whip in her hand and heavily beat Tianci with it. Tianci screeched in great misery. Finally, Hua Qiyue couldn’t bear it anymore and her inner anima energy suddenly erupted. She released the force that pressed on her by anima energy!

“Stop it! You b*tch!” Hua Qiyue scolded. She rushed to Princess Huizhen and pushed her away. Driven by the billowy resentment, Hua Qiyue chocked Princess Huizhen coldly, at this moment, she heard Yun Shimo’s angry roar, “Hua Qiyue, are you dicing with death?”

Hua Qiyue was astonished. Just now, she concentrated so much on it that she was completely baffled by the hallucination. Yun Shimo’s roar woke her up immediately!

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that her hands were round Yun Shimo’s neck…

Emm…

Seeing Yun Shimo’s face flushing, Hua Qiyue let go of her hands at once and left several shallow red scratches on his jade-like neck.

“This stone cottage can also produce hallucination. Hua Qiyue, sit down and cultivate quietly, the hallucination will naturally disappear! I thought that you would figure it out, but unexpectedly, you…” Yun Shimo’s face turned red with anger and he said in a cold voice.

Hua Qiyue’s face became serious. She was too worried to detect this stone cottage with heart.

And now, having been scolded by Yun Shimo, she immediately understood that she was in danger and should keep calm.

Although Hua Qiyue’s had improved her level to the superior stage in Qi Art, she more or less would make mistakes in this situation because of the lack of practices and experience.

Hua Qiyue sat down silently and calmed down, and as expected, all the hallucinations never appeared again.

So, did they have to sit here forever? Was it way out of line?

Hua Qiyue lost her patience and asked Yun Shimo in a low voice, “Yun Shimo, do you figure out other ways?”

Yun Shimo still closed his eyes calmly with no response to Hua Qiyue. She looked at his celestial-like and charming face as well as perfect stature that attracted nationwide attention, which made innumerous girls crazy about him.

But now, he was really annoying!

“Yun Shimo…”

“No! I have no other ways!” Yun Shimo only felt that there seemed to be three thousand crows twittering around her ears, so, he answered impatiently.

Hua Qiyue was a little disappointed.

Yun Shimo was superior to her in both experience and Qi Art. Thus, if he had no other ways, then she was more impossible to solve it.

“So, what are we going to do?” Hua Qiyue was unwilling to give up and asked. She didn’t want to stay with this mysterious guy. If he suddenly acted in an opposite way, Hua Qiyue couldn’t assure herself that she was able to escape.

Yun Shimo said calmly, “Wait!”

Wait?

Until when?

Hua Qiyue was very agitated, but she understood that Yun Shimo was right. Now, it was still impossible for her to find other ways no matter how anxious she was.

Hua Qiyue sat down again. She crossed her legs and took a deep breath, which totally calmed her down.

They inhaled anima energies in silence.

Didn’t know how long it took, Hua Qiyue suddenly felt that something strange happened in the stone cottage. She opened eyes slowly, only to see that the five walls of the stone cottage slowly cracked, and on these walls, there appeared flowers in fresh white color.

After a while, five walls were immediately filled with these flowers, becoming walls of flowers. This beautiful fairyland with thousands of flowers and enchanted butterflies hadn’t any signs of hallucination. Seeing this strange sight, Hua Qiyue became serious.

Tranquility didn’t mean good things.

All of a sudden, the stone cottage shifted to this scene, what trick did the little guy play?

Magic? To befuddle people? Or poisonous flowers? Or poisonous butterflies?

All of a sudden, Yun Shimo opened his eyes and indifferently looked at this change which was as beautiful as a fairyland.

“Watch out. The more beautiful these things are, the more dangerous they are,”Yun Shimo said calmly. Hua Qiyue nodded and she couldn’t agree with him anymore.

It wasn’t easy to get through this test.

Whiz, whiz, whiz…

Those thousands of flowers seemed to have eyes and got rid of the stone walls, flying to Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo.

Hua Qiyue and Yun Shimo protected themselves by anima energies at yhe same time. However, those white flowers brutally inhaled their anima energies into the center of the flowers!

“These flowers… could inhale anima energy. That’s terrible!” Hua Qiyue cried in vexation. Yun Shimo’s face looked like a thundercloud. He promptly transformed his position and stood back to back with Hua Qiyue, handing their back to the one they trusted.

Hua Qiyue only felt her soul quivering, and suddenly, her body was powerless, which made her couldn’t help sleeping.

Yun Shimo said harshly, “This is soul-attack! Get out of your soul!”

“Get out of my soul?”

Hua Qiyue was extremely shocked. So far, she could only enter Mysterious World, and she totally had no idea how to get out of her soul.

When she was confused, a strong attracive force made her float in the air. Turning her head, she saw Yun Shimo’s handsome face freezing!

He held her hands tightly. Although Hua Qiyue felt his power, she still could only see the transparency of her body—this, was the soul!

Hua Qiyue’s anima energies were almost inhaled by those flowers. She floated in the air powerlessly and breathlessly. She also saw that her body and Yun Shimo below were covered by innumerous flowers and she failed to see their original looks.

“That’s horrible! Soul-attack, perhaps there is no Qi Artist on Tianyuan Continent that can do it, right?” Hua Qiyue asked in a low voice.

“Don’t talk about soul-attack unless you’re an Qi Artist at the Holy God level.” Yun Shimo responded coldly.

Although she was just a soul, Hua Qiyue was still able to feel the heat in his palms and her heartbeat quickening. They leaned on each other closely. The soul had no body, but the feeling of it was the most real.
