Chapter 116 – Exposed

“So naughty!” Wan Xin shifted slightly and just dodged the Ethereal Court disciple’s handsy move. She threw him a shy but flirty glance, which made the man feel a heat rise in his lower abdomen. His eyes glazed over a little, as though he had been mesmerized.

This scene made Gu Suihan’s lips twitch violently. He had clearly seen the disgust in her eyes for that one fleeting moment, which made him conclude that all women possessed an innate ability to fool men.

The rest of the group couldn’t help but shut their eyes because they simply couldn’t continue watching this. It looked like a lecherous goblin was trying to pin down a beautiful goddess. They felt as though their eyes were on fire.

One of them finally couldn’t take it anymore. A young lady in a pale yellow dress said, “Senior sister, I think it’s best that we think about how to contact our other junior sisters. This place is filled with dangers and it’s very risky for anybody to walk around by themselves.”

The man snapped out of his daze and laughed a little awkwardly when he saw the rest staring disdainfully at him. He cleared his throat and put on a more serious voice, “You’re right, it’s very dangerous here. We’d better think about how to proceed from here.” But the glances he stole at Wan Xin were filled with even more desire than before.

“I’ve already sent a signal out, so if there are any people nearby, they will definitely gather here,” said one Vast Sky Sect disciple as he held up the dim jade token in his hand.

Just then, several cultivators emanating a murderous aura appeared before the group.

Both sides instantly looked like they were facing a formidable enemy and stared at each other with surprise.

Gu Suihan was also surprised because the fierce group of cultivators who had just appeared were none other than Zhou Wenxiang and his companions who had tried to kill him earlier.

“How dare you capture our fellow Seven Kill Sect disciples! You must be tired of living!”

Zhou Wenxiang didn’t say much more than that. Perhaps he had learned his lesson from what happened with Gu Suihan earlier. His group exchanged glances and made an attack immediately.

They had eight people in their group, while Wan Xin only had six. Once they started fighting, Zhou Wenxiang’s side quickly gained the upper hand.

Gu Suihan continued squatting in the tree, as though he was one with his surroundings. He concealed his presence and silently observed the battle below.

When someone managed to break through their defenses and was about to free the captured Seven Kill Sect disciples, the Ethereal Court disciple finally made his move. He raised his matchstick arm with an aggressive look in his eyes. He used his fingernails to cut himself hard and flicked the blood that flowed out into the air while making a hand seal with his left hand. “Mutual Joy Murderous Yin, Reverse the Yin and Yang!”

“What the hell?!” Everyone recognized that move as a powerful one and their faces paled. Even Gu Suihan did a double take and quickly used his Gold Geng Sword Mantra to stop his breathing while allowing a small amount of spiritual energy to seep from his pores, forming a thin protective layer around him so that the sweet Mutual Joy Murderous Yin would not be absorbed into his body.

“You want all of us to die together? How dare you!” yelled Zhou Wenxiang in a shrill voice as he retreated a few hundred meters in an instant.

“Don’t be ridiculous,” replied the man. He spat and waved his arm vigorously as he chanted loudly, “Mutual Joy Murderous Yin, Attack of Heaven and Earth!”

The pink powder that gave off a saccharine yet bloody smell of murderous qi instantly turned into two whirlwinds that measured about 30 meters across. The wind was as sharp as a blade and stirred up several broken rocks. They moved toward Zhou Wenxiang like two jiaolongs.

“Run!” The man trembled violently, his face pale as he grabbed Wan Xin’s fair wrist and turned to run.

PFFT! The sound of someone getting attacked particularly viciously made everyone stop fighting and turn around in shock.

The Ethereal Court disciple stared at the beautiful woman in front of him with utter disbelief in his eyes.

“How revolting.” Wan Xin had a look of disgust as she pried the man’s chicken feet-looking fingers off her wrist, as she withdrew her other hand, which was now bloodied and flesh-covered from his stomach. The infatuated look she had on her face earlier was nowhere to be found.

“Wh-why…!” said the man with a trembling voice as he reached out as though he wanted to strangle the woman in front of him.

“Because you’re ugly, and you’re also super gross.”

Wan Xin calmly wiped the blood off her pretty fingers with a handkerchief and allowed the wind to blow the handkerchief onto the man’s face, covering his look of shock and horror.

“Women are really the most vicious creatures after all,” thought Gu Suihan as he enjoyed the show unfolding below him. He was just short of getting himself a bucket of popcorn. That man had just given Wan Xin the secret key and she took him out so heartlessly. What a drama.

Once the man had died, all the murderous qi he had released also faded. Zhou Wenxiang landed again after fighting off the two whirlwinds. His breathing was weak from being severely injured and his skin was covered in cuts, as though the whirlwinds had scraped off an entire layer.

Everyone exchanged glances and quickly surrounded Wan Xin and her group again. However, they looked at the seemingly fragile and kindly Wan Xin more warily.

The Wonderful Sound Sect were experts at using sound waves to attack their opponents, so their attacks always covered a large area. Zhou Wenxiang’s group had two at Advanced Foundation Establishment and the rest were at Mid Foundation Establishment. Wan Xin’s group of six were all almost entirely unhurt and they also had the unpredictable Wan Xin on their side. The two sides were almost equal in strength now.

“Tell you what. Let our fellow Seven Kill Sect disciples go and we’ll leave you alone. How’s that?” said one of them with an awkward smile as he gulped. He was hoping to add to their numbers and kill off Wan Xin’s group.

“That sounds great.” Wan Xin smiled prettily as waved her hand to send out three knives made from soundwaves, shattered the dantians of the three Seven Kill Sect disciples, then loosened their bonds and threw them at Zhou Wenxiang’s group.

Both sides were silent for some time until one of them couldn’t stand it anymore. He swung his ghost-controlling flag and dozens of vengeful spirits came out to gobble up the three disciples howling in pain to end their suffering.

Just when both sides were about to walk away, Wan Xin felt something shift in her belt. She had a look of surprise as she took out the secret key.

The secret key suddenly became extremely hot and its outer layer kept peeling off as the stone trembled. It gave off a bedazzling glow as a dark green pillar of light shot into the sky.

“What’s that?”

Everyone turned to see that Zhou Wenxiang had suddenly taken out a purple jade token from his belt even as he sat on the ground to recover from his injuries. A golden light swirled around it and a purple pillar of light shot out from within and into the sky.

All of them widened their eyes and they could see the greediness in each other’s gazes. Zhou Wenxiang was very badly hurt and that jade token was clearly something very precious. If they took this chance to attack Zhou Wenxiang…

“There’s one more?”

Before they could decide what to do, someone else shouted again and they turned their heads once more.

A golden pillar of light had shot into the sky from the trees a few hundred meters away from them.

“Fuck!” Gu Suihan smacked his forehead as he watched the secret key go through another round of metamorphosis. He suddenly realized that this thing seemed to hate him or something. His location had been exposed twice now because of it.

He saw everyone staring intensely at him, so he cleared his throat, jumped off the tree he was in, and grinned as he greeted them, “Hello, hello, what a coincidence! I’ve got some urgent matters to attend to, so…see you around!”

He had barely finished speaking when he mustered a wind beneath his feet and turned to run, covering a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

“Stop right there!” Both groups yelled after him at the same time.

They were surprised and turned to look at one another.

Wan Xin looked like her entire face had turned into frost and the murderous aura she emanated was terrifying. Her eyes were pretty but filled with nothing but hatred, while her chest heaved in anger.

Zhou Wenxiang, was also clenching his teeth and his face was pale and twisted, as though he wanted to bite Gu Suihan to death.

“Why are you after him?” Both groups asked each other in unison again.

“Run after him! He’s going to get away!” Wan Xin glared at the other group, then ran after Gu Suihan as swiftly as a fairy on a cloud.

“Let’s go after him too.” One of them from the other group was about to give chase as well when he noticed the glint in the others’ eyes as they quietly surrounded Zhou Wenxiang, who was leaning against a tree weakly.

“Despicable fellow! Stop right there!” shouted Wan Xin as she kept her eyes fixed on Gu Suihan and ignored how messy her silky hair was becoming. She sent out spell after spell as she threw talisman after talisman at him.

Gu Suihan cursed as he dodged attack after attack, jumping left and right as he flew above walls of mud and ice, balls of ice, ice picks, and a variety of spells and talismans. He didn’t even turn back as he yelled at her, “Bloody hell! All we did was capture you! You’re lucky I didn’t kill you! And you still dare to run after me?!”

“You…!” Wan Xin’s expression became even more hateful when she heard what he said. Her brows were deeply furrowed and she clenched her teeth without saying anything, unleashing more spells and talismans even more rapidly than before.

“Damn it! This is the first time I’ve met someone this bent on attacking me,” spat Gu Suihan as he glanced at her from the corner of his eye and saw that she was getting closer and closer to him. Her juniors obviously couldn’t keep up and she was the only one running after him and refusing to give up.

“That’s enough!” yelled Gu Suihan furiously after dodging yet another ball of water and narrowly missing a wall of ice that had suddenly appeared from beneath a bridge.
