Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 628

Chapter 577B – Betrayal

Shen Yuanyin came to a stop. She took out a jade slip and probed it with her divine sense. Several breaths later, she put it back away.

That’s right, the Water Marid’s lair was nearby.

She turned around and lightly said, “Sang Zhu, you can leave.”

It would be a bitter battle up ahead. Even if it was her, Shen Yuanyin didn’t have full confidence she would succeed.

Sang Zhu felt anxious but she didn’t reveal any of this on her face. She only said, “I haven’t repaid you at all. I ask that fairy maiden allow me to stay with you a little bit longer.”

Shen Yuanyin was without expression. “I will not repeat myself again.”

Sang Zhu nearly broke apart one of her teeth. But during their time together, she had already gained an understanding of Shen Yuanyin’s personality. Once she said something she wouldn’t change her mind.

Saying anything else would only make matters worse.

She squeezed out a smile and bowed, “If so, then I ask fairy maiden to take care!”

Shen Yuanyin turned and walked out. But at this time, two cultivators flew in from in front of her. They were one man and one woman, both of their auras tyrannical.

“You s.l.u.t, it’s you!”

The man was startled. He immediately roared with anger, fury in his eyes. “Return my son’s life to me!”

As he spoke he directly attacked. A radiant sword light instantly spanned across the vast skies, filled with an earth-shaking killing intent.

Shen Yuanyin furrowed her eyebrows. She lifted a hand and pressed it forward. The sword light immediately froze. “Who are you?”

The female cultivator screeched, “The ones that are going to take your life!”

She lifted a hand and slapped the point between her eyebrows. Her skin split apart and a blood red light flashed, condensing into a sword.

Shen Yuanyin’s eyes were icy cold. After reaching large success with the Sublime Lost Emotion Code, her desires were to kill as she pleased. She no longer held grief, mercy, or indignation towards anything in the world.

The heavy strikes of the man and woman had already aroused her killing intent. She no longer held back.

Pa –

The frozen sword light shattered into countless blocks. The man stuffily coughed and blood appeared at the corners of his lips. Shock rose in his eyes, “Sister Mei, be careful!”

But the warning came too late. Shen Yuanyin’s finger came down and the sword formed from blood light trembled and collapsed. The light dispersed from the woman’s eyes. With her life’s sword destroyed, her soul directly perished.

The man held onto her corpse and howled like a wild beast, “You s.l.u.t, my family saved you out of kindness and we finally ended up in such a situation. You will die a miserable death!”

Bang –

A terrifying sword intent shot into the skies, like a lighthouse in the night skies, illuminating all sides. In the next moment the dreadful sword intent slashed down. All blood drained from the man’s face as he died on the spot.

There was no fluctuation of emotion on Shen Yuanyin’s face. She flicked her sleeves and space twisted. When the heaven-shocking sword intent fell into this twisted space, it was grinded down to nothing.

Although her actions seemed light and casual, she couldn’t help but frown, a clear feeling of weariness on her face.

Sang Zhu’s eyes brightened. She already suspected that this incomparably powerful woman had problems with her body.

Otherwise, when she rested and meditated along the way, why did she need an array formation?

This without a doubt represented that the chance she had been waiting for all this time was close at hand.

Whoosh –

Whoosh –

There was the sound of piercing air. One could see numerous beams of light shooting in from the distance. In fact, far away one could even see space collapsing as several people raced here, not even hesitating to shatter space to do so.

Without exception, when these people saw Shen Yuanyin, they all clenched their jaws, killing intent seething in their eyes.

“It’s her! She killed my beloved disciple, she must die today!”

“Kill her and burn her to ashes!”

“You poisonous whore, I want to see how you plan on escaping today!”

With loud roars all around, dense auras locked tight onto Shen Yuanyin.

She furrowed her eyebrows. With a sudden flick of her sleeves the phantom of a massive divine palace appeared above her heads. A cold and majestic sound was stimulated, ringing throughout the skies.

“I am the direct lineage of the Immortal Sect. Who are you people that you dare to besiege me?”

The people that were overflowing with killing intent suddenly stiffened as they heard this, their complexions changing.

Immortal Sect…to be able to summon a projection of an Immortal Palace, this person was undoubtedly a direct descendant. Moreover, she was one of the highest levels of existence there, with a supremely honored status.

The Demonic Path was famous for covering up their shortcomings, but it was also well known how the Immortal Sect carried grudges…if they killed this woman, there would undoubtedly be trouble.

Seeing that she had temporarily deterred the crowd, Shen Yuanyin said, “We do not know each other. Perhaps there has been a misunderstanding.”

A female cultivator screamed, “Misunderstanding? Even if you turned into ashes I would still recognize you!” Her eyes swept around, “Who cares if she is a direct descendant of the Immortal Sect? Murdering someone and repaying with your life is one of the highest truths of the world! You all might be scared, but I am not! At worst I’ll just die with her!”

Shen Yuanyin knit her eyebrows together. “Who are you?”

“Even now you still want to pretend? Could it be that we have all mistaken you!?” The woman screeched with sorrow. “Everyone, widen your eyes and take a good look! Is this woman in front of you your enemy or not!?”

“Yes, it’s her!”

“Her appearance might change but her aura can’t be wrong! Even if you are part of the Immortal Sect, for you to commit such evil sins, you cannot be forgiven!”

“It’s her! It’s her!”

Shen Yuanyin coldly said, “During this time I have been together with this woman. She has not taken half a step from my side.”

Shua –

Countless eyes immediately gathered on Sang Zhu’s body. Someone from the crowd shouted out, “Your Highness Sang Zhu!”

Someone actually recognized her.

Within the Qi Empire’s diplomatic mission, there were princes and princesses that entered the Sea of Purgatory. As soon as the crowd heard her name, they matched her to what they knew.

If the princess of an empire were to testify on Shen Yuanyin’s behalf, while it might not be able to rid her of all suspicion, it would at least calm them down.

But right now, Sang Zhu was thinking of something else.

With Shen Yuanyin’s personality, one that was so cold that she was like a block of ice, she wouldn’t give an explanation unless she had no other choice.

Since she spoke so much now, the only explanation was that she couldn’t last through a prolonged battle with these people.

Her thoughts raced. After several breaths of time, Sang Zhu came to a decision. This was the best opportunity for her; she couldn’t miss out!

Having resolved herself, Sang Zhu didn’t hesitate any further. She fiercely looked up, panic and fear etched on her face. “Save me! I was forced to follow her. This woman was injured some time ago; if you wait for her to recover, all of us will die!”

Although her explanation wasn’t too clear, it was more than enough at this moment.

Shen Yuanyin stiffened. Her ice cold eyes fell onto Sang Zhu. When others saw this, what they thought they saw was the anger of having been seen through.

“You cheap s.l.u.t, what else do you have to say!”

“Kill her! No one can be punished for upholding the law. Who cares if she is from the Immortal Sect?”

“As long as none of us speak nonsense, how would the Immortal Sect know that she died beneath our hands!?”

Sang Zhu’s words became the last straw that crushed the doubt in the hearts of the people.

Of course, another reason was that someone had spoken correctly before. Everyone here had already been tainted by the cause and effects of today’s incident. Only an idiot would ever reveal what happened here.

There were countless casualties in the Sea of Purgatory this time. It wouldn’t surprise anyone if a direct descendant of the Immortal Sect perished here. No one would be suspected if they were to kill her.

Shen Yuanyin could clearly feel the killing intent in the hearts of those around her. She suddenly raised a hand and pointed behind her.

Sang Zhu’s heart chilled and she quickly hid behind someone. As soon as she did, the cultivator she hid behind was immediately covered in a layer of ice.

Kacha –

Kacha –

Cracks appeared before rapidly spreading out. The corpse shattered into countless blocks that scattered across the ground.

This sight left Sang Zhu deathly pale. If she hadn’t been prepared, the one who died would have been her.

“Go!”

“Attack!”

Shen Yuanyin killing someone had raised the curtains to this great battle. The cultivators each attacked brutally.

Anyone that was capable of coming this far into the Sea of Purgatory’s forbidden zone – whether they were alone or in a party – couldn’t have their strength underestimated.

Now that they attacked together, their supernatural arts flooded out one’s field of vision. The blinding lights represented an extremely terrifying killing potential.

But at this time, Shen Yuanyin erupted with a strength that surpassed imagination. She lifted her hands and the divine palace phantom above her head suddenly dispersed outwards, protecting her.

The numerous supernatural arts crashed into the divine palace phantom. They rapidly weakened in strength before vanishing from sight.

This sight left everyone’s pupils shrinking. If someone could resist their combined attacks, such strength could only be described as terrifying. Did a woman from the Immortal Sect with such a cultivation really needed to practice the art of plundering strength from others?

Thinking about it further, what status did this woman have in the Immortal Sect?

Their hearts shivered. They felt that there truly might have been a misunderstanding here. But with things having come this far, could they really explain themselves?

Even if they managed to explain themselves, would this ice-faced Immortal Sect cultivator let them off? Would the Immortal Sect be benevolent and not punish them?

They clenched their teeth, an ice cold light in their eyes. They no longer had a choice. Even if they knew they had made a mistake, they could only follow this road to the end…they had to kill her!

As long as she died, everything would be settled. Everyone would have ghosts in their hearts so no one would speak about this in the future.

Bang –

Bang –

For a time, the rumbles of numerous supernatural arts didn’t diminish in the least. In fact, they became even stronger than they were at the start.

Shen Yuanyin’s expression was faint. She could naturally feel the change in mindset of those around her. Her eyes became even colder.

She lifted a hand and pointed at the void. After several flicks of her hand, strong winds were whipped into existence and the temperature in the air began to drastically fall.

White snowflakes started to flutter down from above. They landed thick and dense, soon covering the earth in a layer of white.

Every snowflake contained a terrifying cold intent. As soon as it touched one’s skin it would melt into it.

The numerous cultivators revealed looks of panic. The magic power in their bodies was stagnating and their blood flow was slowing down. It was like their bodies were beginning to freeze over.

To block a barrage of attacks with one hand and counterattack so swiftly and fiercely with the other, this sudden change reawakened the fear in everyone’s hearts towards the Immortal Sect.

The barrage of attacks slowed down. Many people rapidly drew backwards to avoid being covered by the snowflakes!

At this time, a figure broke through the snow, appearing outside the divine palace phantom.

This was a heroic-looking youth with a delicate and pretty appearance. His eyes shined like cold stars as he lifted a fist and punched out.

Bang –

A tyrannical strength was fused into this fist. The divine palace phantom sunk down as it twisted up, turning everything into chaos.

The youth was shaken backwards by the formidable strength. Each step he took back shattered space. His complexion paled and he spat out blood.

But even though he spat out blood, Shen Yuanyin furrowed her eyebrows. She revealed a look of pain as her eyes began to darken.

The divine palace phantom had collapsed!

The youth stopped. His eyes were as sharp as lightning. “If you don’t all attack now, then when are you going to wait until?”

An ominous light appeared in the eyes of those that just retreated.

While she was sick, take her life!

Shen Yuanyin took a deep breath. Faint traces of white light emerged from her body. it made her seem incomparably holy, as if she were rising up into the heavens.

In the next moment, these white threads wrapped around her. Then, like a meteor she shot through the horizon.

All barriers and impediments were crushed to nothing. She vanished at an incomparably quick speed.

She ran away?

Everyone paused, their complexions aggrieved.

The youth formed some hand signals and spat out some blood balls. “I left a mark on her body. You can sense her location using these blood balls! We must eliminate this evil! We cannot allow her to escape and continue harming others!”

These were extremely righteous and brave words. Many people happily smiled, expressing their gratitude as they took a blood ball and flew away towards the direction it showed.

They could not allow this female cultivator from the Immortal Sect to live, otherwise they would all die!

This was clearly seeking revenge. Even if they stood on the side of righteousness, they never expected things to come this far. It wasn’t that no one felt regret, but that it was too late to feel regret.

They had to kill her!

Sang Zhu forcefully composed herself, “17th Brother?”

The youth turned around. His eyes flashed and he suddenly smiled, “So royal sister was also here. Now is not the time to speak. We have to catch up and kill that woman.”

There was a cold chill in the air.

Sang Zhu respectfully bowed, “I will listen to 17th Brother’s orders!”

The two howled away. Sang Zhu followed behind in the back. As she looked at the youth’s back, her eyes were uncertain.

She never knew that the patient and low-key brother number 17 would actually possess such formidable strength.

To say that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons within the royal family wasn’t a lie!
