48: Chapter 48 The Ancient Wen Family, Wen Hanyue

For some reason, Wu Luoluo felt a bit aggrieved and wanted to cry.

Ye Lixian looked at Wu Luoluo and puffed out her proud chest.

This scene almost made Wu Luoluo die of anger.

[Of course, Sect Master Wu is also a top-tier beauty, not inferior to Ye Lixian at all.]

[Icy skin and jade bones, features as beautiful as a painting, a grace that defines an era.]

Wu Luoluo, who originally had an aggrieved face, immediately straightened her back and glared back at Ye Lixian.

Ye Lixian couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Qing.

He really knows how to attract women.

Reasonably speaking, she should be Life Qi, but strangely, she couldn't feel any Qi at all.

Perhaps these inner thoughts made Ye Lixian feel that Li Qing was very real, so real that it made her heart ache for him.

All those little secrets were heard by them.

"Brother Qing, you are so kind." Wu Luoluo's eyes, like misty lakes, looked at Li Qing as if they were about to overflow with water.

[What's the situation now?]

[Why give me a 'good person card' out of nowhere? This isn't something to be happy about.]

Li Qing couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Ah..."

Just then, shrill screams rang out in Qingxian City, as if countless Mortals were being crazily slaughtered.

"Not good."

"The Mortals in the city are being attacked by corpse insects."

Li Qing's expression changed.

He broke free from the two women's hands and turned into a streak of light, flying towards Qingxian City.

Seeing this, Ye Lixian and Wu Luoluo quickly followed behind him.

A moment later.

Li Qing arrived above Qingxian City and saw endless black corpse insects rushing out of the Tang Family Mansion, biting the Mortals in the city.

The massive Tang Family Mansion had already disappeared, replaced by a bottomless giant pit.

A pillar of hazy black light shot out from the giant pit, piercing straight into the clouds.

"Heavenly Heart Begets the Bright Moon."

The Void Realm above Li Qing's head vibrated, and a giant bright moon emerged. Its brilliant radiance turned into a river of Sword Qi, blasting towards the nearby corpse insects.

"Nightmare Fire, burn."

Ye Lixian arrived near Li Qing, her eyes turning pure black. Black flames surged from the ground out of nowhere, beginning to incinerate the corpse insects.

"Heavenly Palace Sword Curtain, fall."

Brilliant divine light appeared on Wu Luoluo's body, and a sky-covering sword curtain enveloped countless nearby corpse insects.

The three of them attacked, directly blocking the corpse insects.

"Why is he helping these Mortals?"

"Although I don't understand you very well, I will work hard to understand you."

Ye Lixian glanced at Li Qing and thought silently in her heart.

Wu Luoluo didn't have such thoughts; it was normal for a Righteous Path Cultivator to help Mortals.

"Beep beep."

Just then, a sharp, piercing screech came from the giant pit, and the corpse insects retreated into it like a tide.

"Someone is there."

Wu Luoluo and Ye Lixian's gazes instantly locked onto the giant pit.

[Oh, the Tomb Guardians have made their move.]

[If I didn't step in, these bastards would probably let the corpse insects turn Qingxian City into a ghost city.]

Tomb Guardians?

Ye Lixian and Wu Luoluo were stunned.

"There are people guarding the tomb down there."

The two women blurted out.

"How did you know?"

"That's right. This Qingxian City was established by the Tomb Guardians, about three thousand years ago."

"Qingxian City was originally a funerary object for the Heavenly Tomb. When the time comes, everyone in the city will be sacrificed to the master of the Heavenly Tomb."

Li Qing said indifferently.

[But since the time hasn't come yet, the Tomb Guardians will do their best to minimize the impact of the event.]

[They will open a burial chamber and disguise it as a Secret Realm. Once the Cultivators finish exploring, they will seal the pit, and Qingxian City will remain Qingxian City.]

What?

There's such a thing?

The two women were stunned.

"Rumble."

Just then, rolling rosy light appeared in the distant sky, and auspicious Qi filled the horizon. War chariots, like a surging torrent, arrived above Qingxian City.

Black banners fluttered in the wind, embroidered with a golden character: 'Wen'.

"Ancient Wen Family."

Surprise appeared in the two women's eyes.

[And here they come.]

[I'm afraid no one knows that the Ancient Wen Family has been the Tomb Guardians of the Heavenly Tomb for generations.]

The Wen Family are Tomb Guardians?

This was truly the first time they had heard of it.

The two women were stunned.

"Whoosh, whoosh."

At the same time, a meteor shower appeared in the sky, accompanied by bursts of roaring. White Dragon Horses stepped on the moon, each carrying a Black-Armored Cultivator.

At the very front, a Black-Armored Cultivator held a banner. A huge golden character 'Yun' shone brightly in the night.

"Ancient Yun Family."

The two women's gazes simultaneously fell on that 'Yun' character.

"Your Yun Family's noses are really sharp. We just got here, and you've already followed us," a voice like heavenly music echoed through the night sky.

The torrent of war chariots parted, and a young man in yellow pushed a wheelchair forward.

On the wheelchair sat an extremely beautiful Woman in Green.

[Wen Hanyue.]

[Why is she here?]

[Just as the rumors say, born with a Dragon Bone accompanied by Nine Nether Blood Poison, her body is crippled and she cannot stand upright. How tragic.]

"Who is mocking me? If you have the guts, stand forth."

Wen Hanyue's gaze was cold as she scanned the area.

She had been crippled since childhood due to her Dragon Bone and lived in the Wen Family where Geniuses gathered. One could imagine the scene; she had fought her way from being a despised trash to the position of the Wen Family's Legitimate Daughter. Her Heart-Nature was biased and ruthless.

Now that someone dared to mock her to her face, the inferiority complex hidden deep in her heart instantly erupted.

[No one is speaking.]

[Who would dare mock this auntie to her face?]

[She's a Fated Female Villain of the Eastern Wasteland, just like Ye Lixian.]

[Mocking you? That's asking for death.]

Li Qing took two steps back.

He didn't want to provoke this one.

"Ye Lixian."

Wen Hanyue's gaze instantly fell on Wu Luoluo and Ye Lixian.

They were the only two women present.

[Holy crap, why are you looking over here?]

[We didn't provoke you.]

Li Qing took another two steps back.

Seeing this, Ye Lixian rolled her eyes at Li Qing, and Wu Luoluo gave him a reproachful look.

And you say you didn't provoke her?

You called her a cripple to her face; how could she not come for you?

It seemed Wen Hanyue could also hear Li Qing's inner voice; she was also one of the female protagonists.

"He's the one cursing me."

"No, he didn't speak, nor did he use voice transmission. This is... inner thoughts."

"I can actually hear the inner thoughts of a strange man."

"What's going on?"

Wen Hanyue was stunned.

[Still looking?]

[I'm not that handsome, am I?]

Li Qing took another two steps back.

He was truly afraid of getting involved with another female protagonist.

"Die."

A flash of killing intent appeared in Wen Hanyue's eyes.

The next moment, a vertical line appeared on her forehead and snapped open, revealing a third eye. A thin beam of light shot out from it, piercing through the Void Realm and heading straight for Li Qing.

[Holy shit, what the hell is using the Heavenly Eye to kill me?]

[I didn't damn well provoke you!]

Li Qing was completely bewildered.

But at the moment he was about to strike.

Ye Lixian stepped forward and appeared in front of Li Qing. With a wave of her sleeve, she shattered the beam of light.

"How is that possible?"

"I am at the Half-step Great Power Realm."

Wen Hanyue was shocked.

"Killing without rhyme or reason."

"You cripple really are as ruthless as the rumors say."

Ye Lixian was no pushover either, her words instantly maxing out the hostility.

"Hmph, you dare touch my man? See if I don't cripple you, you cripple."
