Mistress Is Truly Beautiful

Above the sea of clouds, the lightning suddenly vanished.

The Lotus Sword Venerable descended gracefully amidst countless lotus shadows, her snow-white skirt adorned with twin lotus patterns embroidered in gold thread, and her pink gauze shawl swirling like smoke in the fierce wind.

She lightly touched the air with her toes, and the Sword Qi that bloomed behind her transformed into a thousand lotus petals, tearing the thunderstorm into fragments.

"Mistress..."

You Su felt a burning, metallic taste of blood in his throat. He never imagined that his Mistress, who had been missing for many days in his dream, would appear on the shore of Beiao and save him as if Goddess had descended.

The Heng Lian First Seat had eyes as sharp as lightning, and the thunder patterns on his black robe exploded with purple light.

"Lotus Sword Venerable? There was no trace of you on that Divine Ark, yet you crossed the North Sea?"

Upon hearing this, Qianhua Venerable's thoughts raced. Although the sentence was brief, it revealed a wealth of information, immediately resolving many of her doubts.

The Heng Lian First Seat had actually discovered that Tao Yaoyao had boarded the Divine Ark long ago! So he concealed his identity and boarded the same ship as Tao Yaoyao!

He knew perfectly well that Tao Yaoyao had gone to deliver a message, and he also knew that his master and those who wanted to help him would think he couldn't catch up, so his master must have traveled light. Therefore, if he waited here, no one could stop him!

Thinking of this, even this usually arrogant and cunning woman couldn't help but curse inwardly as utterly insidious!

It must have been no easy feat to sneak here undetected by Hua Jing, First Seat; he must be a master of an extremely profound technique of creating clones!

That's right, so he was able to see through the fake body that even she hadn't noticed!

Qianhua Venerable felt that this person was unfathomable. People only knew that Heng Lian First Seat was proficient in Thunder Method, but they had never seen him use his full strength. He stayed in the Heavenly Prison where the Evil Demon roared all day long, seemingly doing his duty, but they never expected that he was secretly lying in wait!

Therefore, no one knows exactly how terrifying his abilities were. After the passing of the Heavenly Arts First Seat, he must have felt that no one could suppress him anymore, and thus began to show his wolfish ambitions!

But... why is Master's master here?

And since she came from the sea, could it be that she really crossed the North Sea?

However, the North Sea is vast. Although a Cave Void with a deep foundation could cross it, it would certainly be exhausting and arduous. Furthermore, the Mystic Qi at sea is far thinner than that on land, making it a drop in the ocean compared to the enormous losses.

Therefore, even if one reaches the other side, it is inevitable that a vulnerable side that a Void Realm cultivator should not reveal will be exposed. The higher one's cultivation level, the more one should avoid such a weakness. This is why the Divine Ark is so important to the Five Continents. Moreover, crossing the sea alone in this vast ocean, no one can guarantee what they will encounter.

Qianhua Venerable felt he couldn't understand it either, but a strong intuition arose within him— You Su would not be caught today!

"Heng Lian First Seat can come, why can't I?"

The elegant female fairy, with her graceful figure, slowly flew to the sky above You Su, her protective instincts evident.

You Su gazed at the graceful figure of the female immortal, he vaguely felt as if his Mistress had glanced at him. Instantly, all his unease vanished, as if even if he were to die now, it would be worthwhile to see his Mistress one last time before he passed away.

"Rumor has it that even though Venerable Lotus Sword Venerable was injured and recuperating, he still had the strength to cross the North Sea?" The Heng Lian First Seat stared coldly.

"Someone wants to harm my disciple? What is the North Sea worth?"

The female immortal held the crystal Immortal Sword suspended in the air, and it suddenly flew back to her palm, emitting a clear and melodious sword cry that was louder than thunder.

You Su stood there stunned, deeply moved by what she heard.

"Your Excellency, are you perhaps unaware that your beloved disciple is a vicious and wicked Evil Demon? Considering that you and I are colleagues in the Evil Warding Department Division, I must remind you that if you intend to protect her, you will tarnish the Fairy's reputation."

"I don't care." He Shutong said frankly, the lotus mark between his brows that was exactly the same as You Su's shining brightly.

The Heng Lian First Seat sneered, "Lotus Sword Venerable, do not deceive yourself. The evil deeds committed by You Su on the Immortal Island are still on record, and the evidence is irrefutable!"

"Did anyone witness it?"

"Nature!"

"I'm afraid you've been tortured into confessing," the Fairy sighed softly. "The Imprint Stone can reflect the Evil Puppet, but it can't reflect the full extent of the wickedness in people's hearts. With me here, you have absolutely no chance of killing him."

The Heng Lian First Seat laughed in extreme anger, as if thunder rumbled in the sky, suggesting he was choked with rage.

"Lotus Sword Venerable, how come you don't understand your disciple as well as I, an outsider? That Thunder Spear just now killed others, but it certainly couldn't kill him. I only want to take him back to Zhongyuan for trial, and you're going to stop me?"

He Shutong lightly traced a line with her sword finger, and the sword in her hand suddenly burst forth with a thousand Sword-Ray. She lowered her head slightly, her gaze fixed on the boy staring blankly at her in the chaotic crowd. Her thin lips parted slightly, but it was unclear who she was speaking to:

"He can only come with me."

Heng Lian First Seat's black robe billowed, and the lightning seal in his palm instantly transformed into a writhing dragon, ready to strike. Whenever he made a move, it was always extremely decisive, like a bolt of lightning suddenly striking down.

Wherever the dragon passed, the icy sea evaporated, and even the water vapor condensed into chains of purple lightning.

The Lotus Sword Venerable seemed to be dancing on the Moon Essence, her snow-white skirt billowing with golden lotus shadows with each tumble, cleaving the thunder dragon in two.

Qianhua Venerable's jade fingers entwined with silk ribbons, a wicked smile playing on her lips. She was never good at direct, head-on clashes, so it was unlikely that she could suppress the Heng Lian First Seat in a direct confrontation. But now that another female Way of the Sword leader was sharing the burden with her, the situation was quite different. After all, when it came to the art of subtly harassing others, no one was more proficient than her, who was skilled in controlling Technique Method.

"What a fine Lotus Birth Sword Technique! I have done a good deed by saving your disciple. Lotus Sword Venerable, why don't you join forces with me? After we have defeated the bandits, please grant me a glimpse of that spiritual light!"

Although the deal had only just been proposed, she acted before it was even finalized. The nine-layered silk ribbon seized the opportunity to entangle the lightning seal, the dark blue threads biting at the lightning like venomous snakes.

The woman constantly moved around and launched surprise attacks, never directly confronting the pressure. She would only interfere whenever Heng Lian was about to gather his thunderous power, which was indeed as annoying as a fly. This drove the Heng Lian First Seat to a frenzy, and his next move was aimed at her.

"He will give it to you if he's willing."

He Shutong stroked the tip of the sword with her slender, white fingers, and the Sword Qi transformed into a twelve-petaled lotus platform that enveloped the surroundings, crushing all the Thunder Method within its range.

You Su was deeply shocked by what he saw on land. In the past, when his Mistress taught him Swordsmanship, the Lotus Birth Sword Intent was always gentle and mild. Now he realized that beneath the continuous Sword Qi lay a devastating murderous intent.

Heng Lian First Seat, who had always been in a superior position since his appearance, finally had to temporarily back down He Shutong's sword moves. He also narrowed his eyes as he looked at the female immortal wielding the sword.

He could tell that this female immortal was going all out, far more reckless than the Qianhua Venerable! Yet he showed no fear whatsoever, instead sneering repeatedly. The Nine Heavens Thunder Pool suddenly collapsed into a thunder imprint in his palm:

"What a deep bond between master and disciple! To be proud of protecting Evil Demon is unworthy of being called a deity!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, the sky suddenly tore open!

A bolt of profound lightning struck down from the crack, hitting the Heng Lian First Seat himself!

As the lightning subsided, the sleeves of the Heng Lian First Seat were torn to shreds, revealing his muscular arms covered in lightning patterns. But what was even more striking was his right eye, which was constantly emitting a sharp light!

The thunderstorm remnants that had been annihilated by the Lotus Birth Sword Intent began to move around rhythmically. They slowly rotated in the air and then coalesced again, transforming into an even more dangerous black Thunder Spear!

Qianhua Venerable's expression also changed abruptly. Looking at Henglian's strange right eye, she felt the oppressive aura emanating from him almost penetrate her skin and reach her heart.

What kind of bizarre eye technique is this?! Are you a turtle man? How can you hide so well?!

She cursed inwardly, but even though she didn't understand rare eye techniques, she knew that the power of black lightning was the most terrifying!

She glanced instinctively at the crowd fleeing in panic on land, becoming even more certain that the man was a madman!

As one of the three chiefs of the Evil Warding Department, he had no intention of caring about these mortals and low-level cultivators!

The thunderstorm raged like a raging dragon, and spiral patterns appeared in the right eye of the Heng Lian First Seat, resembling a blood-red vortex.

He Shutong was also greatly shocked. The thousand lotus shadows she unleashed with her sword had already blocked all his escape routes, but when they touched three feet in front of him, they strangely deflected to the right, as if an invisible hand had forcibly twisted the trajectory of space!

She dodged the lightning strike, and the lotus flower blooming from the tip of her sword suddenly split into nine. However, as soon as the nine sword lights took shape, they twisted into braided ribbons of light amidst the cold laughter of the Heng Lian First Seat, and crashed into each other and annihilated.

With no need to dodge the sharp Sword-Ray, the Heng Lian First Seat no longer had a chance to unleash his Thunder Method. The Thunder Spear took advantage of the situation and pierced through the air. He Shutong spun around and swung his sword to block, but the blade was deflected by half an inch by the lightning, and a blood lotus exploded on his shoulder.

"Take him away!"

While Qianhua Venerable was deep in thought, she suddenly received a telepathic message. She looked at the ethereal Fairy in her flowing white dress in astonishment.

"You want Lingguang, don't you? Take him away! But if you dare hurt him—"

He Shutong didn't continue speaking, but instead gave Qianhua Venerable a look even colder than when she had frozen her emotions and desires, making him understand the consequences.

The Qianhua Venerable hesitated for only a moment before using the cover of his silken array to rush down from the clouds.

"Father, hurry up and go!"

A rosy-cheeked little girl suddenly appeared, her tiny hands gripping You Su's clothes tightly. "Mother and Auntie can't hold the captain back! The ship home is about to sail far away!"

You Su was preoccupied with the battle situation above and paid no attention to the unfamiliar little girl who had randomly claimed him as her father. He roughly pulled the girl's small hand away, but still suppressed his anger and spoke gently to her:

"I'm not your father, it's dangerous here! Go find your mother!"

The girl refused to leave, and You Su couldn't push her away.

Just as You Su was in a state of utter distress, a silken thread wrapped around his waist and pulled him into the air.

The little girl, her eyes brimming with tears, cried out, "You're not allowed to take my father away!" But her voice was so insignificant amidst the screams, roars, and the sounds of collapse.

You Su looked up and immediately realized what Little Dog Qianhua was about to do. "Let go of me! Go help her!"

"She's the one who told me to take you away first!" Qianhua Venerable activated his Mystic Qi and flew towards the giant ship at full speed.

"Stop! I told you to stop!" You Su roared, and once again used the power of his retinue that Qianhua Venerable could not disobey.

"If you don't leave now, you'll be wasting the opportunity your master risked his life to fight for you!" Qianhua Venerable pulled him in front of him, his expression more solemn than ever before.

The methods employed by the Heng Lian First Seat were endless, and her strange right eye was even more unfathomable. She also realized why the Lotus Sword Venerable was prepared to risk his life right from the start.

This was certainly due to anger, but not only that. Lotus Sword Venerable wanted to finish the battle quickly before she showed signs of fatigue! The rumors were true; she was indeed injured! Although he didn't know how she had managed to drag her injured body to Bei'ao, Qianhua Venerable knew that she couldn't hold on for much longer.

If she were the only one left, she would have even less confidence in defeating the Heng Lian First Seat. Her original intention was simply to create chaos so that You Su could board the ship amidst the confusion. Only by delaying Henglian and making the ship sail away could You Su have a chance to escape!

But if even You Su can't catch the boat, then it's like catching a turtle in a jar!

"I can't leave!"

You Su was panting heavily, the veins on his neck bulging, as if he were speaking with all his might.

The female immortal was somewhat taken aback. The determination in the young man's eyes was like a branding iron, burning her with a sense of guilt that made her feel like a deserter.

"Fly me there."

You Su let out a long breath, knowing full well that he wasn't acting impulsively.

He would rather die than abandon his Mistress and flee alone, which is why he waited patiently in front of an empty room in Chuyun City, determined to take his Mistress away, and the same is true now.

But this doesn't mean he was so overconfident as to dare challenge the unfathomable Void Realm with only a half-step Transcendent Realm cultivation. He never intended to defeat him on his own, but—

"I can help her!"

The boy roared, his left eye bulging with blood vessels, all his muscles pounding like a full heart, drawing all the blood in his body to that eye.

Qianhua Venerable was stunned. She clearly saw the boy's left eye gradually become bloodshot and develop the same intricate spiral pattern!

She clearly realized that this young man at the Condensing Water Realm wasn't exaggerating; he really could help her!

"Throw me up there!"

Qianhua Venerable had not yet understood this nonsensical order, but he could only obey it unconditionally!

You Su was tossed high into the clouds, and everything in the boy's field of vision began to rotate in reverse—fragments of collapsing ice hovered and flew backward, and shattered lightning traced winding scorch marks in the void.

You Su saw the blood-red spiral released from Heng Lian's right eye, which was twisting the entire battlefield space into a noose!

It was all so familiar, yet so completely opposite.

What subtly rotates this spatial domain to the right is the True Lord's right eye within Henglian's eye socket!

He closed his eyes; he wanted to reveal his trump card when the enemy wasn't looking!

"Mistress! Draw your sword!"

You Su roared as he was thrown to the highest point. The boy opened his eyes, his eyes wide with rage, and the blood-red light in the left eye of the True Lord surged forth!

He Shutong was utterly astonished by You Su's appearance, but for some reason, an instinctive trust compelled her to obey the boy's command. All her previous caution vanished, and she poured all her Mystic Qi into the Glazed Immortal Sword.

This would be a huge gamble, and if she lost, she wouldn't have the strength to continue entangled with Heng Lian. But she was willing to gamble because she believed in him!

The Heng Lian First Seat was surrounded by raging lightning, and the blood-red light in his right eye intensified! He Shutong, however, was no longer afraid and thrust out his dazzling immortal Immortal Sword!

However, this time, the crimson light bursting from You Su's left eye actually snapped the distorted space back to its original state!

"An eye for an eye!"

The Lotus Sword Venerable's sword rang out clearly, and the nine distorted lotus flowers were reassembled under the guidance of her sword intent.

This time, each lotus petal was enveloped in the crimson light released from You Su's left eye, and the space shattered with a crisp sound as the two visual boundaries collided.

Heng Lian First Seat finally changed color, and the golden pattern in his right eye spun wildly, trying to twist the sword momentum again, but You Su roared and blocked it with his left eye - the two spatial forces tore open spider web-like void cracks in the air!

The Heng Lian First Seat finally let out a roar that was not human, and rolling profound lightning exploded outwards.

Space itself became completely distorted at that moment.

Amidst the towering blood mist, a wisp of lightning vanished into the void.

The female immortal, dressed in Black Gold Qipao, stood up from the ruins. Only then did she understand why You Su hadn't simply asked her to fly up with him, but instead had thrown him up.

Because she had no power to carry him away, he used the power of his followers to borrow most of her Mystic Qi.

High in the sky, You Su nestled in He Shutong's arms, the blood flowing from her left eye staining the Fairy's chest red.

He looked at her captivating face and smiled, for this was the first time he had seen her in reality with his own eyes.

"Mistress..."

"I am here."

"Very nice..."

The female immortal felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and hugged the boy tighter, yet she didn't know why she was doing so well.

"Look..."

Wait... it's really, really beautiful?!

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, the eagle-like man tightly covered his right eye.

Mistress is the MVP, Little Dog Qianhua is just a pushover! Hahaha!
