Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-One: Swallows cannot be sepa

ee thousand nameless serpents exploring the inner mansion at an astonishing speed.Before the second long night of the ambush is over.In a certain room within the mansion, where darkness reigned suprem...Dingmao's Second Floating Island is a mixed human settlement of humans and celestial beings, with most cultivators being independent practitioners. Of course, due to the pressure from the sea races, there are also organized structures.

After the First Floating Island was destroyed, this place became the safest in the Dingmao Realm.

... It retains the Hoshima Defense Array and numerous military supplies.

The few sea beasts on the island didn't even have time to stir up any waves before they were easily wiped out.

Joe Hung-yi and Chiang Cui-lin, after the sea beasts suddenly went out of control, retreated all the way here and took over the island defense.

Creatures of the sea lack sentience. Even if they break free from their constraints and go berserk as a collective, it would be difficult for them to threaten someone of his divine stature.

But many of the sea beasts he imprisoned were manifestations of the Sea Lord's true forms, as Sea Clan warriors.

These sea warriors hated him with a burning passion, constantly summoning sea beasts to lay siege. He didn't want to be worn down, and he dared not leave the Dingmao realm, which had already been emptied of its sea nest, for a place that might be even more dangerous. So he could only hold his ground here.

Fortunately, among these freed beasts, there was no Sea Clan Duke... He didn't have the ability to capture one.

"This Chen Zhi tao, what a waste! What a bogus master of forbidden arts!" Qiao Hongyi stood on the arrow tower, looking at the endless sea beast horde outside the Hu Dao formation, which was still gathering, and couldn't help but curse: "Our forbidden arts are ineffective, and his aren't either How can the Fishing Sea Tower promote the archipelago Isn't this a scam!"

Jiang Cuilin beside her was also frowning: "Do you think Xu Ze Ming received our distress signal Will he come to save us"

"Don't worry," Qiao Hongyi said. "We are all like-minded people who have been fighting for our common ideal until now. He won't ignore us."

He held Jiang Cuilin's hand: "It's just that you've suffered, baby... Following me, we worked hard and traveled for a whole six months, but in the end, it was all for nothing!"

"You don't seem tired at all." Jiang Cuilin shook her head vigorously. "I have a great time being with you."

Qiao Hongyi was deeply moved, gazing intently into her eyes. In those beautiful orbs, ripples of spring water could be seen.

One is called "Linmei," and the other "Jilang."

Love gazes across a chilling battlefield, there's a unique kind of romance between the two involved.

>

They were on the highest watchtower, even the closest person was far away, so they didn't have to worry too much. Qiao Hongyi still cautiously switched to transmitting sound: "I just went to take a look, the island's military supplies are insufficient, and the protective island formation can't last long. In another half hour, if no one comes to save us, I will lead you to break through."

"Can we do this" Jiang Cuilin blinked. "Won't the Zhenhai Alliance cause trouble"

When they fled back to the Second Floating Isle, they abandoned the army they had brought with them to help capture sea beasts. But that could be explained as a last resort. After all, everyone was dead, and no one could stand up to deny it.

Now that this large floating island has so many people, there will surely be one or two who manage to escape. How are we going to explain that when the time comes

"What trouble are you looking for If we can't hold it, should we accompany them to death We came to the Illusory Realm to help them. We have done our best." Qiao Hongyi said: "It was Xu Ze Ming who took the lead and reached a cooperation with the Zhenhai Alliance. Their official documents have been issued! We came to the Illusory Realm to capture sea beasts for this purpose. Now that the Fishing Sea Tower's restrictions are malfunctioning, can you blame me I don't want an easy life, I am willing to work hard for half a year in vain"

Jiang Cuilin said, "I'm afraid they won't make sense..."

"They are unreasonable, but they also need to consider the benefits!" Qiao Hongyi said firmly: "What level of influence does Tai Xu Huan Jing have now Since the Tai Xu Scroll absorbed the Hai Xun List, the number of cultivators who flocked to the nearby islands has increased by a full 40%! And this number is still increasing! Does Zhenhai League want to push help outwards Doesn't Di Hai Lou want to introduce more external forces to counter Qi Guo's suppression"

Joe Hon-yi's analysis was incisive, leaving Jiang Cui-lin with admiration in her eyes. She loved Joe's confident and commanding style; to him, worldly affairs were nothing more than trivial matters.

Just as the two were speaking, something suddenly happened outside the floating island.

A massive horde of sea beasts was clearly agitated, and their movements were rapidly approaching the floating island from afar!

"Someone has come to save us!" Joe Hongyi surged forward, straining his eyes to look into the distance, his face brimming with uncontainable joy. "I told you, neither Lord Xu Ze Ming nor the Zhenhai Alliance would abandon us!"

He suddenly remembered something and reminded, "After we go back, don't say anything bad about Chen Zhitao. We still need to cooperate and can't ruin the whole thing because of our own grievances."

"Um!" Jiang Cuilin nodded forcefully: "I'll listen to you!"

Outside the floating island, the roars of sea beasts echoed incessantly. Inside the floating island, all the warriors saw hope and rallied, operating their weaponry to provide support and rushing towards the edge of the island with drawn swords and blades.

But seeing the brilliant fire line spreading through the sea beast throng, Qiao Hongyi frowned.

In this world of human and monster, fire cultivators seem to be... not very common.

His heart pounded, and he swept his eyes with an air of righteous indignation. In that sea of flames, he saw a figure clad in azure armor, locking gazes with a pair of crimson eyes!

Oh no!

The war between the two clans was raging, this evil god as the main force of the Qi army, how could he return

Won Lost It couldn't just be about coming back here for revenge, could it

Joe Hung-yi didn't have time to think, he flipped over directly and pulled Jiang Cui-lin down from the watchtower, diving towards another direction on the floating island.

"Master Qiao, the reinforcements have arrived!" A cultivator from Dao Yuan Shi reminded as they sent supplies to the main battle point.

Qiao Hongyi didn't waste any words, directly pointing out the large formation node at this place, shattering it and immediately stopping the operation of the protective island formation!

"What are we waiting for The reinforcements have arrived, now is the time to give our lives! Follow me and charge!"

Qiao Hongyi, with a single command, had already led Jiang Cuilin into the sea beast throng. In his hand, the bamboo sword slashed out, sending sword energy soaring to the heavens, leaves rustling like jade in the wind.

The cultivators stranded on this isolated island hadn't reacted yet when the protective barrier vanished, and the sea beasts lurking outside surged in instantly. Some of them still subconsciously obeyed orders, wanting to charge alongside Qiao Hongyi, but how could they possibly catch up to his speed

In the face of winter's chill, three loyal friends stand tall: plum blossom, bamboo stalk, and pine boughs. They are known as Mei Gu, Zhu Jie, and Song Yi.

Qiao Hongyi wielded his bamboo staff, a true disciple of Haoran Academy's esteemed lineage. With full force and unwavering resolve, he charged into the sea monster horde, moving through them as if they were nonexistent.

Just like a strong wind swept through, the bamboo forest surged like waves, from this side to that, all in the blink of an eye!

Joe Hongyi swore he had never run this fast in his life. The Taoist evasion technique of Haoran Academy was pushed to its limit by him. He and Jiang Cuilin were both swept away by the wind.

He watched Jiang Wang set out for the Saha World, embarking on his second expedition to recruit troops. On one hand, he remained steadfast in completing the Tai Xu mission, refusing to be deterred by any setbacks. On the other hand, after the cooperation with Jiang Wang and Jue Ming Island broke down, he completely sided with the Diu Hai Lou, thus creating a little conflict and making a show of allegiance.

Of course, there was also a bit of resentment and a small desire for revenge after being bullied. I couldn't get back at Jiang Wang, but could I mess with a few commoners

Everything spiraled out of control, all thanks to Chen Zhitao!

If it weren't for the sea beast losing control, there wouldn't have been such a huge blunder. Then he wouldn't dare face Jiang Wang.

This matter wasn't entirely his fault, but for someone like Jiang Wang who was used to being domineering and quick to anger, it would be impossible to explain things clearly in person. He could only avoid the confrontation for now and then find a mediator to help settle the dispute.

Jo Hung-yi, with thoughts racing, ran faster and faster.

The white qi outside his body formed a bow, and the bamboo-jointed sword slashed out like a drawn string. He and Jiang Cuilin stepped on the string together, in a thought's span, heaven moved and earth shifted, time flew like an arrow, impossible to catch!

It is precisely the unique secret art of Haoran Academy, a superlative Daoist technique. Time flies like an arrow.

Just when he thought he had completely escaped the battlefield, a sudden chill ran down his spine!

The breath of death touched his soul. Qiao Hongyi flung his Dao companion aside, shouting, "Run! Report to my master!"

Suddenly, he found himself immobilized, his three leaps halted by the chilling edge that pressed against his face. A simple stroke, yet it felt like a judge's pen, a decree from hell itself, sealing his fate for three watches, leaving no room for five. No matter what he did, he couldn't escape its grasp!

The sword style was completely suppressed, and every movement was calculated.

Under extreme tension, inspiration was unexpectedly ignited. Qiao Hongyi seized the opportunity and lunged forward, his bamboo sword flashing as he executed the "Scholar's Crown" move, aiming his blade at the opponent's crown!

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

This is a life-or-death situation, aiming to momentarily halt the opponent's advance. In this instant, his understanding of the sword scripture "Celestial Vigor" seemed to have reached a new level, with numerous previously unimagined and brilliant connections evolving in his mind.

Then he felt it, the sensation of the bamboo sword piercing flesh...and saw a pair of eyes inches away, cold and staring!

He never expected to hit Jiang Wang!

Of course, he couldn't defend himself and Jiang Wang choked his throat.

Five provinces are under control, and the four seas are calm.

Please provide the content you want me to translate.

His body suddenly lost its strength, the bamboo sword flew from his hand. He gazed despairingly at the distance, but he didn't see his beloved junior sister. All he saw was a thin blue figure rapidly disappearing into the horizon - Zhu Biqiong, the true disciple of Diao Hailing Building!

... None of them could escape. He thought this, and then his five senses dimmed.

From the void, pitch-black chains shot out, binding Qiao Hongyi tightly. Jiang Wang carried the person, flying silently towards the floating island.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Normally, to deal with someone like Qiao Hongyi, even if he had to fight and win, he wouldn't lose a single hair... It's just that his injuries are quite severe.

At this time, Chen Zhitao and Fu Yanqing had already quelled the Floating Island crisis, driving back the besieging sea beasts to utter defeat.

Ginger looked around, holding Qiao Hongyi as the crowd surged closer.

"My Lord."

"My Lord."

Greetings rang out continually through the crowd.

>

Jiang Wangmo remained silent.

He was waiting for Zhu Biqiong, waiting for the reunited pair of hapless mandarin ducks in his hands.

With such love, how can they be separated

Catching Jiang Cuilin is child's play for Zhu Biqiong now.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Gu Huixìn gave her unreserved guidance. To prove that she truly had the ability to replace Ji Shaosheng, and let Gu Huixìn no longer resent Jiang Wang and focus on the future, she worked harder than ever before.

The Mirror Flower Water Moon divine ability granted her countless possibilities. By leveraging the suddenness of transforming into various divine abilities, she even managed to kill a stand-in avatar of the founder of Wusheng教, Zhang Linchuan. Even though that body possessed an irreparable innate limitation, her dominance over the outer layers was undeniable.

But the outer building... now it seems hopelessly inadequate.

“I shall achieve godhood.” She thought to herself.

A gentle voice responded, "Wait a little longer. You can achieve it naturally and flawlessly!"

“I must achieve godhood immediately!” Zhu Biqiong stressed in her heart, “Right now I can’t do anything!”

How could she forget Jiang Wang's lost and distraught appearance

He was such a proud person!

“Be good, my dear sister, don't be anxious…” a female voice comforted in her heart: “Look at this woman, she is also a disciple of Haoran Academy. In your hands, she still has the power to fight back We are walking on the right path, we just need a little time to welcome the most beautiful blooming season.”

Zhu Biqiong shook her head: “I can’t wait any longer, I can’t wait any longer…”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At this time, a third voice sounded in her heart, a male voice: "Calm down, Biqiong. The situation in the current Illusory Realm is so complex, you are now a Divine Descent and can't do anything."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhuge Biqiong gritted her teeth: “But at least I can face this with him!”

"You're still doing this for him!" The gentle voice suddenly turned sharp: "Zhu Biqiong, you are so stubborn!"

The light scattered across the heavens and earth gathered together at this moment, forming a mirror.

In the mirror was a face whose features, when separated, were gentle and beautiful. But when brought together, they appeared venomous. She glared fiercely at Zhu Biqiong, her voice sharp as she hissed, "Don't you remember what we went through!"

Jiang Cuilin, who had been subdued and tied up in just a few moves, was now completely bewildered. She couldn't understand why this Zhú Bì Qióng, the true disciple of Dīng Hǎi Lóu, suddenly went blank after taking her down. The sudden appearance of the mirror and the hideous woman in the mirror, especially, filled her with fear.

She mustered her courage and said, "Um, could we talk about a—"

Her mouth was sealed.

Zhu Bi Qiong didn't even look at her, only addressing the woman in the mirror: "Precisely because I remember, I remember everything I've experienced."

"Is there a single good man in the world" the woman in the mirror cried out, "That Hu Shaomeng—"

>

Zhubi Qiong interrupted her: “Hu Shaomeng hurt you and later wanted to hurt me. Jiang Wang saved me from harm.”

“Don't you forget the suffering you endured for him! You suffered so long in prison, all because of him! Is this called protecting you from harm”

“It was my own fault for being too naive and lacking intelligence.” Zhū Bìqióng looked at her: “It’s also because your grandmother-in-law never truly treated me as her disciple; she only valued you.”

The reflection in the mirror contorted, her face twisting into a pained mask: "Don't mention...don't mention that old woman!"

Zhu Biqiong just watched her quietly, watching Zhusuyao's madness, distortion, and pain in the mirror. This scene had happened countless times. From the initial heartache to the current habit.

She knew the only thing she could do was wait.

After a long while, the woman in the mirror finally calmed down. A trace of sadness welled up in her eyes: "It hasn't reached the point where it's inevitable yet. You need to be present now, do you know the price"

"I am willing to bear it," Zhú Bì Qióng said.

A drop of water suddenly leapt from the air, expanding into a sphere. The water sphere resembled a full moon, with a slightly rippling face in its center. He gazed deeply at Zhu Biqiong: “I have a better way, one that will allow you to avoid suffering and achieve your heart’s desire.”

In the mirror, Bamboo Su Yao slowly looked over, as if expecting his solution.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Jiang Cuilin, bound on one side, had been in extreme shock. Listening to Zhū Bìqióng and the woman in the mirror talk about Jiāng Wàng and Shén Lín, it seemed as if Shén Lín was an easy thing to do. Now she was terrified, her eyes wide open, because she discovered that the face appearing in the water moon was exactly the same as Dà Qí Wǔ'ān Hóu. But considering the previous conversation, this was definitely not Wǔ'ān Hóu!

What on earth is going on

She heard Zhu Biqiong's voice and asked, "What can we do"

The man in the water was exactly like Marquis Wu'an, both in appearance and his gentle and polite voice.

He spoke in a voice as mesmerizing as velvet, "There is an unprecedented opportunity now, Bijiong."

His voice held a deep, alluring temptation: "All the protectors around Jiang Wang are gone. And Jiang Wang is badly injured, struggling to even face Qiao Hongyi now. He has no defenses against you…"

Jiang Cuilin was a little afraid to hear more, but at this moment she had no strength to close her ears.

But a male voice from within the water and moon said, "Why not try to help me, kill him...become him I'm not as cold as him, I won't keep my distance from you. I will love you forever, love only you for a lifetime!"

"I will hold your hand and take you to every mountain and river in the world. I will dress you in wedding attire under the watchful eyes of everyone. I will—"

Whoosh!

But the sound of water rushing could be heard.

Zhubi Qiong's slender palm reached directly into the water-moon like orb, grasping the phantom-like face! Of course, it also cut off his words.

"Remember this for me, Shui Yue," Zhu Biqiong said coldly. "Jiang Wang is Jiang Wang because of who he is, not his face, not his cultivation, not his magical powers. Even if you learn everything from him perfectly, you'll never be him!"

As the face in the water moon was about to dissipate, she slowly loosened her palm: "If you dare say that again, I will destroy you."ua, who had just arrived at the viewing stand halfway through the battle, showed no expression on his face.After she chose to remain low-profile in her homeland, she didn't really look forward to the...
