Chapter 55: Hua Qing Wakes Up

Cancan saw Martial Uncle Mu Bai following their original plan and jumping into the pool, she did not dare to relax even a bit in her heart, only thinking about how to delay more time. However, at this moment, Hua Yun seemed to sense something too, and he sternly said, "Hu Cancan, don’t think Mu Bai and the others leaving means there are no worries left. Don’t forget, I still have Hua Qing in my hands."

He raised the sword in his hand and stabbed straight into the cage, Cancan screamed in fear, "No…"

The sword still struck Hua Qing, even though he lay there silently. He coughed up blood and began to fade away, as if he was disappearing into the mist. Hua Yun raised his hands, and just as Hua Qing was about to vanish, he was frozen in ice.

Cancan had no choice at this point. She looked at Hua Qing, wiped away her tears, and said, "Take it, just take it. Please don’t hurt him."

Hua Yun smirked and said, "If you make the right decision quickly, your senior brother won’t have to suffer this sword."

Cancan didn’t know how to give Snowflake Glass to Hua Yun. She couldn’t take it out either because he couldn’t snatch it from her.

Seeing Cancan hesitate for a moment, Ying Tu smirked on the side and said, "If you don’t know how to give Snowflake Glass, I can help you." After laughing for a while, and sensing Hua Yun’s impatience, he quickly added, "Snowflake Glass is a sacred item in our Demon Realm. It’s highly spiritual. If you die in flames, it will naturally leave your body."

Glancing at Hua Yun, Ying Tu seemed to care about them and said, "When Snowflake Glass emerges, you must merge it into your body."

Even though Ying Tu appeared sincere and on the same side as Hua Yun, he had his own agenda. He remained calm on the surface but was determined to seize Snowflake Glass once it emerged. As a member of the Demon Realm, he knew the maximum potential of Snowflake Glass in his possession. This was why he didn’t pursue Mo Yuan, who had transformed into Big Green after several serious injuries. With Snowflake Glass, he could face gods and demons alike.

Ying Tu had his own plans, and Hua Yun didn’t fully trust him. Hua Yun was wary of Ying Tu and ignited the Everlasting Flame to attack Cancan suddenly.

Cancan was surrounded by raging flames in an instant, she cried out in pain and collapsed on the ground, unable to bear it.

In the illusion, people seemed to see Xian Yue, but she was also Cancan, although they had the same appearance, they could still distinguish between them in an instant.

Hua Yun saw it, slightly curved his lips, his eyes full of indifference, "elder martial sister, no matter how many times you are reincarnated, you still can’t see my existence. In that case, you should never be reborn again, just go away, promise me, never appear again for eternity, okay? I want you – to disappear completely!"

Cancan couldn’t hear what Hua Yun was saying at all, she was burning in the flames, only feeling that everything in front of her was an illusion.

A woman in white clothes swayed lightly, dancing gracefully, like the melodious song of a warbler leaving its nest. Sitting aside playing the zither was Hua Qing, his head lowered strumming the zither, clear and unparalleled, with a slight smile of elegance on his face. And on the other side, the man playing the flute was Hua Yun, with a somewhat innocent face, almost full of admiration as he watched the graceful singing and dancing woman, who was Xian Yue.

Hua Yun was full of admiration, while Xian Yue’s eyes were only for Hua Qing.

Cancan knew she was Xian Yue, but at this moment, in a daze, she felt like a bystander, only able to watch from a distance. Enduring the piercing pain, unable to go forward, unable to leave, just watching like this…

"In the Eastern Sea, there is a dragon causing mischief, bringing disaster to living beings. Xian Yue came down the mountain to slay the monster and bring peace to the people." said the white-haired old man.

Xian Yue battled fiercely with the dragon, using various skills, but still couldn’t capture the dragon. Just when she was fighting bravely after multiple defeats, the dragon whipped its tail, breaking Xian Yue’s arm in an instant…

"Ah…" She fell to the ground in pain. The scene kept spinning. Cancan saw Mo Yuan sitting alone quietly in the dark palace, next to the unconscious Xian Yue whose arm was already broken. After a moment of silence, Mo Yuan reached for the shining Snowflake Glass on the palace and put it on Xian Yue’s shoulder, instantly healing her arm.

"Why do you admire me so much?" Xian Yue once asked Mo Yuan.

Dressed in black, Mo Yuan stood in the shadows with a sad smile. He slowly replied, "Xian Yue, do you not remember me? Back then, you were not yet immortal, and I had not fallen into darkness. You once helped me, and although you have done so much good that you have forgotten, it was the only warmth I had in this world. Over time, it became an obsession that I cannot let go of."

After that, Xian Yue fought dragons and demons, unstoppable in her actions.

But deep down, only she knew that her newfound strength was solely due to the Demon Realm artifact, Snowflake Glass. However, the influence of Snowflake Glass on Xian Yue grew stronger. She began to constantly seek more power, power that she craved. Initially just a slight fondness, the influence of Snowflake Glass caused this fondness to grow endlessly…

Cancan felt as if she was watching Xian Yue slowly descend into darkness. She watched helplessly, her body surrounded by flames but without any burns, her life force fading away.

Watching those sad past events slowly fade away.

She saw Xian Yue’s admiration, Mo Yuan’s dedication to Xian Yue, and Hua Yun’s increasingly jealous gaze from behind. It turned out that Hua Yun’s corruption was not solely because of the Snowflake Glass, but rather the shards of the Snowflake Glass exacerbated his downfall…

"Hua, Hua Qing…" Cancan fell to the ground, burning in flames, yet still gazing in Hua Qing’s direction, biting her lips and screaming repeatedly.

Hua Yun stared at Cancan with a dark look in his eyes and said, "You should die. If you die, I will release my senior brother. Everything will end when you die."

Hua Yun couldn’t explain the feeling he had towards Cancan. No, he didn’t have any feelings for Cancan. He could mercilessly kill this little fox demon. The one he had feelings for was Xian Yue in the past, but Xian Yue, his elder martial sister, was already dead. The one in front of him was just Cancan, not Xian Yue, but Hu Cancan.

Even though reincarnated, no one saw Hu Cancan as Xian Yue. Despite having a similar appearance, their personalities were completely different. How could she be Xian Yue?

Hua Yun had a cold expression on his face and even felt that Yu Xiu looked more like Xian Yue, even though she wasn’t.

He was resentful of Xian Yue falling into the evil path, but he also felt hatred because of love. Those indescribable hidden emotions suddenly burst out.

At that moment, what he wanted most was to kill Hu Cancan. Only when she died could everything truly end.

"Cancan!" Just as everyone was distracted, a cold wind blew by. Mo Yuan rushed back, his eyes turning crimson as he watched Cancan burning in flames. With a fierce look, he drew the glaring Green Jade Sword, ready to fight Hua Yun.

Hua Yun didn’t understand why Big Green had turned back into Mo Yuan, but he suddenly realized that Mo Yuan had become very difficult to deal with. Seeing this, Ying Tu charged forward to help Hua Yun fight against Mo Yuan, who seemed almost ethereal, almost merging with the Green Jade Sword as he moved between them.

Ying Tu’s face changed, "Not good! Mo Yuan sealed his soul within the Green Jade Sword."

Legend has it that the Green Jade Sword of the Demon Realm was sealed inside the Demon Tower in the Demon Realm. Only the Demon Lords of the past could activate the Demon Tower to unleash the full power of the Green Jade Sword, which required a fusion of human and sword. However, once the Green Jade Sword was activated, the person would be forever bound to the sword, with their soul sealed for eternity, but this would also allow them to unleash their full power and become unbeatable.

Despite being invincible, giving up one’s soul and never seeing the light of day again is not something anyone would choose to do. Surprisingly, Mo Yuan was willing to do this for Hu Cancan.

Neither Ying Tu nor Hua Yun was a match for Mo Yuan. At this moment, Martial Uncle Mu Bai rushed out of the water to Cancan’s side and chanted spells, trying to destroy the Everlasting Flame summoned by Hua Yun with blood sacrifice, but to no avail.

Hua Yun laughed heartily upon seeing this, boasting arrogantly, "If I die, none of you will ever be able to save Hu Cancan for eternity. She will perish with me. I just have to wait it out, hold on. Hu Cancan will burn, and Snowflake Glass will be mine. None of you are my match!"

Mu Bai knew that Hua Yun’s words were true. Looking at Cancan, who was barely conscious, she was trapped in illusions of past and present, unable to escape.

At that moment, Mu Bai was surprised to find Hua Qing encased in ice. With a quick thought, he used all his mental power to strike Cancan, causing her to leap and collide with the ice-caged iron cage. The ice and fire instantly merged into one. Everyone was stunned by the scene before them and forgot about the fight.

Cancan fell into a stupor, and her Snowflake Glass slowly floated up. Seeing this, the fighters all rushed towards Hua Qing and Cancan. However, what they did not expect was that the Snowflake Glass did not soar into the air as anticipated. Instead, it slowly slipped into Hua Qing’s body with the swirling air of ice and fire.

Hua Qing instantly opened his eyes.

"Hua Qing!"

The fire and ice suddenly went out. Hua Qing slowly sat up, looking at everyone. Hua Yun attacked with many swords, but when Hua Qing raised his hand, the swords turned around. Hua Yun couldn’t dodge and got hit, falling down.

Ignoring everyone else, Hua Qing quickly picked up Cancan, who was covered in wounds, like a lifeless doll. Quiet, oblivious…

Hua Qing wiped Cancan’s face with his sleeve, her messy hair falling down. He bent down slowly and kissed Cancan on her forehead.

Then, his eyes glowed strangely. He raised his hand and broke the ice, holding Cancan with one arm and swiftly moving among the others. Before Mu Bai and the others could react, Ying Tu and Hua Yun were already on the ground.

Hua Qing looked at everyone coldly, with a sinister smile. Hua Yun stared at Hua Qing in disbelief and suddenly begged, "Senior Brother, please spare me. I captured you before and didn’t kill you. Senior Brother, there’s mercy from heaven, Senior Brother…"

Hua Qing raised his sword without hesitation and stabbed Hua Yun, who coughed up blood.

"I won’t kill you." With a cold but eerie smile, he said darkly, "All the torment she suffered today, I will make you endure a thousand times over."
