BXBX NOVEL Chapter 97 - 97 Supreme Opportunity
“Spring woods are filled with charming flowers, spring birds carry their sorrowful tunes. Spring breeze has such compassion, it brushes a part my drifting robes…”
As dawn approaches, a young girl sings this song, stepping in the last moonlight, leaving the human world, following the torn crevice of the underworld, going back into the silent underworld. Just when she returns to this silent realm, her sweet tuneful singing suddenly comes to a stop.
“Sister! ”
Looking at the tall woman by the Soul Cleansing Spring, her shoulder armor adorned with an elegant pitch-black phoenix bird preening its feathers, the young girl’s lithe figure freezes, like a fine wax sculpture.
“You’re back, did you have a good time in the human world?”
The woman in armor turns around, her phoenix eyes and red lips complimenting her high nose bridge, her features as sharp as a sword, no hint of feminine delicacy, an overwhelming heroic aura.
Her silver armor shone brilliantly, her large cloak black on the outside and red on the inside. As the Yin Wind blows, waves of red surge forth like blood. The murderous spirit shoots to the sky, murderous intent swells in the field, all her sharpness exposed.
Her phoenix eyes carry an innate dignity, her gaze sharp as a sword, full of lethal decisiveness. Normal ghost creatures dissipated instantly under her gaze.
But this sharp gaze softened when it landed on the young girl called Nangong. As for Nangong, the murderous aura surrounding her sister was like a spring breeze on her face, it made no difference to her.
What truly made her uneasy was the fact that her comings and goings between the underworld and the human world were caught bv her sister.
“I did, I had a good time.”
The young girl’s voice was as faint as a mosquito buzzing. Although she had made big promises to Feng Qing’an before, now with her sister back, her heart was filled with uncertainty and regret to the point of leaving.
“As long as you enjoyed yourself. Come, tell me, where did this scent of human beings come from?”
The young girl’s heart gave a jolt, and she could only unwillingly shuffle her small steps to buy as much time as possible.
The woman quietly watched her little sister dawdle without hurrying her or showing any impatience.
However, no matter how slow she steps, in such a short distance, the effect of delaying time is limited in the end. The anxious and uneasy young girl quickly moved to the side of the Soul Cleansing Spring, facing her suddenly returned sister.
“Nangong, you’ve grown up!”
Quietly staring at the young girl whose rosy cheeks were still flushed, the woman’s cold voice echoed. Even the familiar Nangong couldn’t figure out the underlying tone of her words.
“Sister! ”
Nangong cautiously lifted her head and called tentatively, her eyes clear and innocent as a fawn in the woods.
“You won’t have to worry about anything, I’m not going to blame you. You are my only sister, I’ll tolerate anything you’ve done and bear all the consequences for you!”
The woman’s voice was just as cold, but her words immediately calmed Nangong’s previously frantic heart. The girl happily flung herself into her sister’s embrace, even separated by the icy silver armor she could still feel the warmth that her sister gave her heart.
“Sister! ”
“Nangong! ”
As she held the still delicate girl, the woman’s eyes became even colder. The smell of the men from the human world hanging on her sister was too strong for her.
And this smell was permeating every part of her sister, and it didn’t look like it would be fading any time soon, almost like it was merging with her sister’s own smell.
After a while, the young girl’s court dress faded and transformed into an endless expanse of the Purple Light Forest, the woman’s sturdy silver armor was removed too. The moment the armor was removed, several silver lights converged together and surprisingly transformed into a clanking silver luan, it fluttered its wings and flew high into the sky, frolicking with the underworld phoenix.
But the sisters seemed to be used to it, paying no mind to this. In these intimate moments, dressed in thin clothes, they stepped into the Soul Cleansing Spring together.
“Nangong, you have your own choices, I will not interfere with your choices. But as your sister, I should at least know the status of the lover you have been looking for in the human world, right?”
“Sister! ! ”
The girl let out a delicate coquettish sigh; it could melt anyone’s bones by three points. However, the woman, even after removing her armor, revealing her jade-like skin, long beautiful figure, was unmoved.
“What? Was I wrong in my guess? You’ve brought him all the way here and even let him bathe in the Soul Cleansing Spring, isn’t he your lover?”
“The first time, he barged in here himself, I only asked him a question and he followed my lead, dipping both feet into the spring!” “So, he seems to be a frivolous and reckless man!” The emotion in the woman’s eyes deepened.
“But he is very interesting and also…”
Nangong lengthened her tone.
“And what?”
The woman, lowering her head, looked at the young girl hugging her arm and looking up at her, trying to keep her in suspense.
“Sister, don’t you realise I’ve changed?”
“A change?”
The woman’s gaze deepens, lowering her head to seriously observe her already too familiar sister. What other changes could there be, besides that overwhelming smell of human men on her?
“Your original source…”
The ruler of You Huang Ghost Country, her normally icy face, at this moment, finally showed a significant emotional change. Even when she was besieged by nine ghost kings, she had never experienced such intense emotional upheaval.
They’re just trifling creatures, what to be feared about? With the sword, they can be slain one by one!
“A part of it has been restored!”
The young girl showed a shy smile on her serene face, her slender hand gently touching her slightly raised chest. Of course, she could feel the change in her own body, who could understand her body better than herself?
She knew the ways of the human world, else why would she play with Feng Qing’an all night, oblivious of the woman’s reputation. Though she was never concerned with these issues.
“It’s the lover you’re seeing in the human world?”
“Hmm!”
The regent of You Huang Ghost Country suddenly came to understand, she cared too much about her sister and ignored what was more important. Hence, she extended her hand, grasped at nothing, an invisible entity scattered around the Soul Cleansing Spring began to gather in her palm.
Thread by thread, streak by streak, all traces that Feng Qing’an left behind when he was here were all within her grasp. Even Nangong’s body was no exception. An invisible entity detached from her and converged to the woman’s palm.
“An unparalleled opportunity!”
Closing her eyes briefly, the ruler of You Huang Ghost Country adjusted to this new sensation. A moment later, a star-like glare erupted from her eyes when she opened them, illuminating everything like daylight. In the next instant, all the anomalies converged back.
She finally understood, the man who had intruded here from the mortal world, couldn’t be a frivolous person, but an unparalleled opportunity that could withstand the heavens and alter fate.
She had already forgotten, how long she had been searching in this underworld, how many ghost kings she had slain. But even so, she had never recovered a single part of her missing original source.
But now, her sister has done it!
