Chapter 742: I’m Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Shanshan, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”

This sentence was simple and direct, but it was filled with gentleness and love. It penetrated the rain curtain woven by hundreds of millions of raindrops and wound around the endless cycle of life and death. It echoed in Cao Shanshan’s ears and boiled her blood with passion!

The boy that she pined for, he was really here!

Cao Shanshan didn’t even have the time to think about how Ling Yun managed to find her. She only felt as though she was on cloud nine, afraid that it was all a dream!

“Shanshan, don’t be agitated. This is not a dream. It’s me, Ling Yun!

“Do your best to remain calm. Reserve your energy, I’ll bring you away later!”

Ling Yun’s voice entered her ears once again as she pinched her thigh.

Of course she wasn’t dreaming.

Cao Shanshan mustered all her strength to suppress her excitement. That caused her body to tense up and stiffen. She actually shifted towards where the sound came from unknowingly.

“Shanshan, what do you think you’re doing!”

Chen Jianwei didn’t believe that anyone would be able to find this hiding place of his. That was why he gloated about his great future with Cao Shanshan on the cliff.

Chen Jianwei knew that Grand Duke Dracula would arrive tonight. He would Embrace Shanshan the moment he knew how to deal with the Holy Light in Cao Shanshan’s body!

It wouldn’t feel as good to tell Cao Shanshan about the future once that happened. By then, she would have become his submissive slave, ready to satisfy his every need!

Chen Jianwei realized that Cao Shanshan was actually shaking and edging towards the exit. The rain had already drenched her shiny hair!

She was just one step away from the thousand-foot cliff!

Chen Jianwei grabbed Cao Shanshan’s wrist at lightning speed, pulling her back!

“Why? Do you perhaps want to die now after enduring for so long?” Chen Jianwei asked in a sickly sweet tone.

Chen Jianwei was actually afraid of Cao Shanshan committing suicide. Where else could he find such good blood?

Cao Shanshan’s chest rose and fell dramatically as she took several deep breaths. She cooled herself down and then turned coldly towards Chen Jianwei’s pale face. “Die? Aren’t you belittling our Cao Family? Do you think I don’t know that you can fly? You would be able to grab me even if I were to jump from here...”

Cao Shanshan deliberately raised her voice, almost to the point of shouting. It occurred to her that Ling Yun might not know that Chen Jianwei could fly, so she used this opportunity to tell him the enemy’s power.

That led Ling Yun, who was keeping very still, to smile.

Ling Yun had been too domineering, so everyone around him thought that he was someone with a short fuse, someone without any patience or endurance.

That couldn’t be further from the truth.

Ling Yun would have died in the Cultivation World if he was really like that.

Ling Yun was someone who could endure, even cancel his existence when there was a need to!

All to achieve his goals!

That was what he was doing now. Ling Yun’s divine sense could only reach the caverns a hundred meters away from him. He didn’t find Cao Shanshan in them, so he knew that Cao Shanshan must be hidden on higher ground.

He hid in his nocturnal clothing and blended into the surroundings. Even the most outstanding Japanese ninja would find it difficult to track Ling Yun.

He stayed motionless no matter how much the cold rain poured down his neck. Only his eyes were showing, staring unblinkingly at the cliff.

Ling Yun’s senses were heightened, owing to him becoming quiet. His hearing, especially, was now many times sharper than usual.

The rain and the waterfall continued their deafening harmony. That didn’t hinder Ling Yun’s hearing as long as it was within five hundred square meters.

Ling Yun was alerted to the lid flying off Chen Jianwei’s coffin immediately.

He knew in that instant where Chen Jianwei and Cao Shanshan were.

Every single word they exchanged was heard by Ling Yun. That made him relax completely.

Honestly, Ling Yun had thought of the worst-case scenario before he came to save Cao Shanshan. Chen Jianwei was someone at the mid-stages of the Xiantian Realm and a member of the Blood Clan. He could hypnotize someone with the Evil Eye, and Cao Shanshan was a normal girl.

Cao Shanshan fell into his clutches nearly three months ago. It wasn’t a short period of time. While she had yet to be Embraced, it didn’t mean that she wouldn’t already have been sexually assaulted and lost her innocence to Chen Jianwei.

Ling Yun was prepared to accept the worst-case scenario. It was a miracle not to die in such a situation, what else could he hope for?

No matter what, Ling Yun would deliver a terrible death to Chen Jianwei!

However, he knew from their conversation that Cao Shanshan was alright. She had been resisting Chen Jianwei over the past three months. She didn’t admit defeat, nor did she yield.

Ling Yun was shocked!

He could roughly guess Cao Shanshan’s thoughts. He knew that Cao Shanshan managed to keep herself alive because she wanted revenge for her family.

However, Ling Yun was moved by her insistence on her virginity.

Her precondition to living on and taking revenge was to keep her chastity!

That was Cao Shanshan’s bottom line!

Why? Only Ling Yun would know!

None of my women are hopelessly stupid!

Cao Shanshan was fighting alongside Ling Yun even though she was still in Chen Jianwei’s hands. Ling Yun had to snicker.

“Shanshan, you don’t need to worry. I know everything about Chen Jianwei, and I have a plan to deal with him. You just continue buying time...”

Ling Yun waited patiently for the opportunity to come.

“I said I’ll tear you into a million pieces myself. I won’t die before that!”

Cao Shanshan was encouraged by Ling Yun’s presence. She became even colder.

Chen Jianwei searched Cao Shanshan’s eyes and found that they were no longer dead but filled with fighting spirit. That baffled him.

However, he was assured since Cao Shanshan wasn’t seeking death. Cao Shanshan and the Cao Family would be his after The Embrace as long as she didn’t die!

“Hahahaha... A million pieces, eh? I’ll wait for that day!”

Chen Jianwei threw his head back and laughed hysterically.

A communicator rang suddenly. It had all the functions of a phone, but it was obviously better than any phone on the market.

“Grand Duke Dracula is here. I’ll go and meet him now. Your time is nearly up. Think about how you want to tear me into a million pieces while you can...

“Well, you can see your grandpa and your parents after The Embrace...”

Chen Jianwei was still worried about Cao Shanshan committing suicide, so he fed her this tranquilizer. He knew this was the greatest motivation for her to live.

Of course, he wasn’t going to tell her that her family had been rescued by Ling Yun.

“I’ll wait for your Embrace. I have to have the same power as you if I want to kill you...”

Cao Shanshan rose to the challenge.

“Great!

“I have to leave temporarily. You go back and rest!”

Chen Jianwei smiled and pulled Cao Shanshan back into the cave.

“Don’t touch me!” Cao Shanshan struggled free from Chen Jianwei’s icy claws.

“Shanshan, go back in with him and get him to leave quickly!” Ling Yun spoke to Cao Shanshan via telepathy again.

Chen Jianwei shut Cao Shanshan into her room and tidied the place up a little. He then went to the exit and smiled. “Grand Duke Dracula, how exciting...”

“Si, Si...”

“Flap, flap, flap...”

Chen Jianwei’s wings were out, displaying a wingspan of about eight meters. He flapped them and leaped out of the cave. He left only after circling around, ensuring that there was nothing wrong.

Ling Yun stood up after two minutes with a gigantic smile.

“What a great time for you to leave... Don’t cry when you come back...”

Ling Yun smiled and jumped fifty meters upwards.

He didn’t care about the raindrops falling on his head and shoulders, nor did he care about the slippery cliffs. After jumping seven or eight times, he finally stood steadily at the entrance of the cave.

Ling Yun activated the Yin-Yang harmony balance so that his pure Yang Qi would circulate. A huge mist surrounded him!

His body and clothes dried immediately.

“Whoosh!”

Ling Yun activated his divine sense and found the hole that Cao Shanshan was kept in. He stepped forward with the Devil’s Blade in hand.

“Shanshan, get away from the door, your hubby is here!”
