Chapter 856: Obtaining Treasure
There was still Xiaomo, Little Red, Little White—Oh wait, Qingjue—so one piece for each of them. Ling Chuxi still wasn’t used to the fact that Little White was Huangfu Qingjue, and Little White’s figure still appeared in her mind occasionally.
‘Oh, right, can’t forget myself too.’ Ling Chuxi was not a generous person without any selfish intent. Generosity was a virtue, but if she forget herself because of it, then she would no longer be Ling Chuxi.
After finally making all the necessary calculations, Ling Chuxi started to take action. Though the sword’s power was restrained, the Luo Chen Sword was even sharper after being tempered by Cang Yuan, and it easily cut dozens of small pieces of the White Jade Crystal Heart as if it was cutting tofu.
Seeing that there was still quite a lot more of the crystal heart from the halfway mark, Ling Chuxi cut out a few more pieces as spares. The White Jade Crystal Heart was an extremely rare treasure, and even if she couldn’t find someone to give it to, it would still be worth a lot if she chose to sell it. Either way, Ling Chuxi would never complain about having too much money.
Ling Chuxi eventually finished cutting out pieces of the crystal heart, and noticing that nothing had changed, Ling Chuxi and Huangfu Qingjue left promptly. As soon as they walked away, the White Jade Crystal Heart started glowing brilliantly, and the cave gradually closed behind them, turning into a huge rock.
Unless someone knew the exact location of the White Jade Crystal Heart and dug it out, it would otherwise be buried and sealed deep under the huge rock forever, and no one would ever be able to find it again.
As soon as they returned to the crystal palace, Ling Chuxi and Huangfu Qingjue started hearing a deep rumbling, and the surrounding spiritual energy began fluctuating wildly. The sound become louder and louder, and the ground beneath them started shaking.
The sword spirit was right—without the sword heart, the array would soon collapse.
“Let’s go.” Huangfu Qingjue ran with Ling Chuxi towards the path they had come from.
“Little Red!” Ling Chuxi reached out and picked up Little Red as they made their way out.
‘Hmph, finally remembered me?’ Little Red chirped in irritation. He wanted to join the both of them, but unfortunately, they had disappeared before he finished digesting the medicinal pills. Furthermore, he was injured and didn’t want to act rashly, so he just waited for them both to return. Naturally, he was now feeling upset and sulky.
Huangfu Qingjue gave him a cold glare, startling him. Little Red immediately slipped out of Ling Chuxi’s arms and into the pocket of her clothes. Only then did he glare back at Huangfu Qingjue.
‘Hmph, who do you think you are? One day, I will awaken my Demon Emperor’s bloodline and settle the score with you.’ Little Red thought to himself dejectedly as he curled up in Ling Chuxi’s pocket. Of course, he couldn’t say that out loud, or Huangfu Qingjue would surely drag him out and throw him away!
Turbulent qi currents like countless sharp blades rushed towards the both of them, making thunderous sounds. Huangfu Qingjue pulled Ling Chuxi close into his arms and formed an invisible shield to protect them. Despite the impact of the qi blades, it did not affect the two of them in the slightest.
As soon as they reached the ground, the Four Wonder Array collapsed completely and a colorful light burst into the sky, making it as bright as day. However, it only lasted a moment, and then the dark night became even darker.
The whole earth shook violently and sank bit by bit, as if it had been hit by a earthquake. The ground look like the rolling tide, and the beautiful sea of flowers had now become a wasteland. All the plants and flowers were pulled out to their roots, crumbling all around the Four Wonder Array.
