Chapter 595: Nine Lives Cat Demon, Ling Qianxue!
The voice was melodious and clear, reaching Su Yi's ears as if it was directly echoing in his mind.
"Who is it..."
Su Yi immediately looked up, his eyes scanning the surroundings. His soul power reached out, probing the area. This voice made Su Yi feel a sense of familiarity.
However, as Su Yi's gaze swept across the surroundings, he found nothing and failed to notice anyone.
"Invisible to the eyes, refreshing indeed...," a gentle and ethereal voice continued to echo in Su Yi's ears.
"You are..."
Su Yi was startled, the voice was indeed incredibly familiar.
"You are the Nine Lives Cat Demon..."
Suddenly, Su Yi remembered. His eyes widened in surprise, almost jumping up, as he exclaimed loudly, "Is it you? Are you not dead?"
"Are you wishing for my death?"The ethereal voice carried a hint of sharpness, yet it was undoubtedly the voice of the Nine Lives Cat Demon.
"Nine Lives Cat Demon, you are still alive, that is wonderful."
Su Yi was delighted and immediately hopped down from the ancient stone platform, only to realize that he was completely naked.
His face immediately flushed with a hint of embarrassment, and Su Yi quickly picked up a few space bags nearby. He took out a set of robes and put them on, feeling excited all the while.
The Nine Lives Cat Demon hadn't died, which filled Su Yi with an inner joy.
Su Yi had thought that after the Nine Lives Cat Demon's demonic core self-destructed that day, it was lost forever. But now, seeing that the Nine Lives Cat Demon was still alive, Su Yi felt a profound sense of joy.
"I am definitely still alive."
The Nine Lives Cat Demon said in a soft voice, "Besides, I have a name."
"You have a name, but you never said it, and I don't know..."
Su Yi frowned, recalling the time they had spent together, but he still didn't know the name of the Nine Lives Cat Demon.
"Ling Qianxue!" the Nine Lives Cat Demon's voice echoed softly.
"Ling Qianxue... It sounds quite pleasant. Where are you now?" Su Yi wondered, only hearing her voice but not seeing her.
"I am inside you," Ling Qianxue's voice resonated in Su Yi's ears.
"Inside of me!"
Su Yi was taken aback, his eyes widened in astonishment. He hastily checked his own body and exclaimed, "You're inside me? Where exactly? How did I not know? You didn't really explode as a demonic core before, did you? What on earth is going on?"
A series of questions left Su Yi feeling astonished and perplexed.
"Demonic cores self-destructing would undoubtedly lead to certain death. However, within our clan, there exists a unique secret technique. It is somewhat similar to the phoenix clan's method of rebirth through nirvana. It allows me to be reborn by borrowing another body," Ling Qianxue explained.
"Like this, borrowing strength to be reborn..."
Suddenly, Su Yi had a thought about a very unique and wicked method. It was said that powerful individuals in this world, before facing calamity, could separate their souls from their physical bodies and possess others.
With this thought in mind, Su Yi's gaze shifted abruptly, and he asked, "Borrowing strength to be reborn... Could it be that you want to possess me?"
"I may consider possessing someone, but you are not worthy. The innate technique of borrowing strength for rebirth in our clan is beyond the comparison of mere possession," Ling Qianxue said in a disdainful tone, addressing Su Yi.
"That's good..."
Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "So, are you really inside my body now?"
"Are there any other options for me? After the demonic core self-destructs, I can only be reborn by borrowing your body," Ling Qianxue replied.
"So, you have been inside me all this time?"
Su Yi was astonished, he couldn't believe that he didn't feel anything at all.
"I, Ling Qianxue, exist within you, to be precise, within the very essence of your being, intertwined with your flesh and bones. However, achieving a complete rebirth is not an easy task," Ling Qianxue's voice slightly trembled.
Su Yi raised an eyebrow as he said, "Merge with me...?"
"Don't think that I've taken advantage of you. If it weren't for me lending you a helping hand this time, your fate would have been dire," Ling Qianxue said.
"It was you all along."
Su Yi finally understood. It appeared that in his confused state, the mysterious life force energy was coming from Ling Qianxue. He said, "Thank you."
The appreciation in Su Yi's heart was genuine. If it weren't for Ling Qianxue's demonic core self-destructing back then, he would have likely fallen into the clutches of Emperor Blazing Dragon long ago.
This time, it was Ling Qianxue who secretly assisted Su Yi. In his heart, Su Yi began to understand that behind her cold and proud exterior, the woman was not so difficult to get along with once you became familiar with her.
"No need to thank me, you don't owe me anything."
Ling Qianxue's voice said, only she knew deep down the benefits she gained by being reborn in this boy's body. That kind of energy brought her tremendous benefits, ones that were beyond imagination.
"I do owe you, of course," Su Yi laughed, "You've saved me several times."
"You really don't owe me anything."
Ling Qianxue said, her voice filled with helplessness. She couldn't possibly say that she had also gained unimaginable benefits from this guy.
Su Yi smiled and remained silent for a moment before asking Ling Qianxue, "You just said that achieving a complete rebirth is not easy. Is there anything I can do to help?"
As Su Yi pondered, recalling how Ling Qianxue had assisted him, he thought that if he could help her achieve a complete rebirth, it would be a way to repay her kindness to some extent.
"With your current abilities, it's better to forget it. You can't help at all."
Ling Qianxue's voice was soft as she said, "But you must remember, you mustn't die casually. If I'm reborn through borrowing your body, I won't be able to stay uninvolved if you die. So, if you truly want to help, then please live your life well."
"Er... This is an accident."
Su Yi felt rather embarrassed, wearing a bitter smile on his face. This time, Yun Lingfeng took advantage of the opportunity and succeeded. Su Yi blamed himself for being too careless. The demonic energy inside that divine weapon was truly terrifying.
As for Yun Lingfeng, Su Yi, in his heart at that moment, couldn't help but feel a shiver running through him.
This account, will have to be settled properly when the time comes.
"What is this place? How do I get out?"
Su Yi faced a practical problem. He searched around the eerie void, but there was no way out. The silence added to the eeriness of the surroundings.
"After you got injured, the place collapsed and then we ended up here. This place is very mysterious and extraordinary," Ling Qianxue said.
"Do you know about Su Tian..."
"Chirp chirp..."
Su Yi sighed, realizing that he could only figure out a way to get out slowly. He then thought about asking Ling Qianxue if she knew about Su Tian Que's situation.
Suddenly, the space cracked with a sound, and a radiant light began to fill the surroundings.
Following the energy and movement, Su Yi's gaze fell upon the ancient stone platform where he had been sitting cross-legged.
That ancient stone platform was originally the place where the Divine Sword School's founder had left behind a divine weapon.
At this moment, the cracked stone platform trembled once again, suddenly shimmering with a radiant light, filling the air with a dazzling brilliance.
"Boom!"
The mysterious void trembled, as the light gradually grew brighter and brighter. The ancient stone platform shimmered with constantly shifting secret symbols, emitting a dazzling glow. The cracks on the surface widened more and more.
"Bzzz!"
The broken sword Su Yi had picked up suddenly came to life in his hands, as it began to tremble and emit a faint sound.
