Chapter 231: Chapter 225: I Was Outplayed?

---

  

  Bo Fai released a large amount of flames from his body that stopped the water tendrils from piercing through his body. The water turned directly into steam while the other end of the meteor hammer sent towards Yanyu was blocked by her half-broken sword. Once the weighted end made contact with the sword, it was suddenly repulsed with great force somehow and repelled far into the sky with even greater speed than before. 

  Jing was forced into releasing her weapon lest she wanted to be sent flying into the sky without her control. It turns out that this group wasn’t that weak at all. They surely had some skills and tools necessary to cause some trouble for Heaven’s Angels. If they attacked one of their weaker members all at once, it might be possible to seriously injure them. As long as this wasn’t everything they had to show, of course. But considering that they planned to kill Hu Tao, Jing didn’t believe it was. 

“Not bad.” Jing nodded her head, complimented the group. 

  She pulled out another meteor hammer made of water from her stomach as Bo Fai came running toward her with his body burning brightly. Considering how well he countered her, Jing planned to take out the weaker ones first before dealing with him. Saving the best for last was a saying for a reason. Jing continuously hopped backward while staring into Bo Fai’s eyes with a small grin. 

‘She’s frightened and hiding her fear behind a smile to bluff me! Hmph! I’m far too old for a little girl like you to try and play mind games with me.’ Bo Fai smirked as he chased her. 

  The two moved quickly through the foggy forest. Seeing him fall perfectly into her bait, made her question if he really was a reincarnated Earthly Immortal like Hu Tao said he was. But then again, reincarnation does make one arrogant. She had a period like that during her 10,000 lives in which she thought she was the number one under the heavens because of the knowledge she accumulated over time. Jing had to find out the hard way that there were many hidden experts in the world and knowledge of the future wasn’t a guarantee for your safety.  

“Kaizar’s Conquest.” Jing utilized her movement art given to her by the system. 

  Multiple afterimages of herself appeared on the field, seemingly taunting Bo Fai with their smile. Bo Fai only scoffed as he gathered the phoenix’s flames into a palm-sized sphere above his hand. Just as all the clones of Jing charged toward him, he crushed the fireball in his hand. A massive shockwave of heat and fire spread from his body in all directions. 

  A high-pitched scream nearly froze Bo Fai’s heart solid.  

‘Yanyu! Yanyu!? What happened to her? Wasn’t that girl’s attention focused on me!?’ Bo Fai quickly controlled his flames into returning back to himself and rushing towards the sound of Yanyu. 

  Once he made it over to her, his eyes couldn’t believe what it was seeing. Unlike what he thought had occurred, Yanyu was completely fine. Seeing that she was okay, Bo Fai’s thumping heart calmed itself. If something happened to her, Bo Fai wouldn’t know how to explain himself to her older brother. 

“It was a trick, Boyfriend! You know your flames can’t hurt me, remember!?” Yan Yu reminded him. 

  After all the time they spent together, Bo Fai and Yanyu have gotten much closer to each other. Ever since that day where Bo Fai rescued her from dying at Hu Tao’s hands, Yanyu fell in love with him. She followed him around, endlessly searched for him when he hid from her, and always spoke to him with hearts in her eyes. Bo Fai never outright rejected her advanced because he thought of her love as nothing more than puppy love. He felt that she would surely grow out of it once she saw that he wasn’t interested. 

  Unfortunately for Bo Fai, he underestimated just how far a young girl was willing to go for their first love. She did not grow disinterested even when he tried treating her coldly or insulting her. Yanyu used his criticism as motivation to improve herself and eventually took the way he constantly poked at her faults as a way of showing concern for her. Perhaps he was shy and couldn’t be honest with his true feelings about her. So, he hid his feelings behind a cold face and rude words to hide his own embarrassment. 

  Eventually, even an old fossil couldn’t stand against love as strong as this. Despite becoming an Earthly Immortal in his first life, he was rather secluded from the world. He never experienced many of the things that Yanyu was aggressively shoving his way. Love, dedication, devotion, interest, companionship, and a wanting to be with him no matter what. Bo Fai could only admit defeat towards Yanyu’s strong pursing. Not even assassins after his head chased him as hard as she did.

  Bo Fai refused to directly admit that he had feelings for the girl but it was obvious to anyone that hung around them that the two held feelings for one another. He never refused her verbal or physical advances but at the same time never initiated some on his own. Yanyu took it as him being shy. Hong Long and Meili took it as him being stubborn. As if showing your feelings towards the one you like was embarrassing. He was just being a fool. 

“Then what was that--- Gurk! Huk!” Bo Fai felt something cold, wet, and hard wrap around his throat. 

  The pressure tightened immediately and his vision was turning dark very quickly. Bo Fai mustered as much qi as he could to burst with phoenix flames. But before he could manifest them, he felt a sharp pain come from behind him that directly injured his liver and ruined his concentration. Now, he no longer had the ability to resist. 

“Boyfriend!” Yanyu shouted in concern as she dashed toward him. 

  Jing didn’t plan on stopping. She had her meteor hammer’s chain wrapped around Bo Fai’s throat and kneed him in the liver to prevent him from using his flames. The liver was one weakness that when injured caused excruciating pain and could easily incapacitate a person to their knees. It would take a cultivator with impressive willpower to be able to focus their qi during such pain and perform qi techniques.  

  Not even an old fossil like Bo Fai could resist against this surprise attack. Just as Bo Fai was about to blackout, a white flash slashed through the misty fog. Yanyu was about to reach Bo Fai and the water girl but it seems the white flash reached them first. It sliced straight through Bo Fai’s abdomen and the girl behind him. Yanyu’s eyes flashed with shock and concern. 

“Yan! Don’t forget what kind of flames he possesses!” Meili reminded her. 

  The realization of what she was saying slowly poured into her mind. This understanding briefly allowed her to ignore Bo Fai’s cut in half body to focus on the water girl who was completely stunned. Yanyu’s half-broken blade roared with powerful qi radiating off of her body. The qi manifestation of a mighty dragon appeared above her body as she chopped into the water clone’s body. 

“You really sacrificed him to get me?” Jing truly didn’t expect such an outcome. 

  Her mind couldn’t possibly accept that their hatred for Hu Tao would be that deep that they were willing to sacrifice a member of their own group just to kill her. Especially when the girl named Yanyu was so deeply in love with the fire boy she called Boyfriend. How could she accept her boyfriend dying in such a manner to one of her comrades? Things weren’t making sense. Jing felt that she was being played. But before she could get to the bottom of anything, she exploded into a million of water droplets after Yanyu’s blade hacked into her body.  

  After dealing with the water girl, Yanyu quickly ran over to Bo Fai’s body. The upper half of his body was separated from his lower half but if you took a quick look at him, it would be difficult to see such a thing. Meili’s slash was too perfect. It cleanly sliced right through him but one would never know unless they physically tried to separate his upper body and lower body. Yanyu did her best to help Bo Fai regenerate by pushing the top half and bottom half closer together. 

“I apologize.” Meili walked over and said to the two of them. 

“I’m angry with you but I know you only did it to save my boyfriend...” Yanyu was not dumb. She understood it was probably their only option to save him. 

“I’ll be on the lookout for any ghosts while we wait for the two of them to recover.” Meili told her. 

“Okay.” Yanyu placed Bo Fai’s head on her lap as she lovingly played with his hair. 

  Unknown to Meili’s group, the water droplets from before began to move. Each individual droplet slowly and steadily moved under the cover of the endless fog in the forest. Meili’s group was none the wiser as each of the droplets escaped right under their noses. Later on, reforming back into one whole and then returning back to its creator with new important information.
