Chapter 613: Fabulously Beauty

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

From afar, Zhang Ruochen saw two evil cultivators, armored in black leather, carrying a coffin and running forward quickly.

Both of them had reached the Third Change in the Fish-dragon Realm. So long as they displayed bodily movement and martial technique, it felt like that they were stepping on the hot wheels. Each step they took, they could move about 33 meters away.

The two Evil Warriors suddenly stopped.

Both of them cast their eyes forward, alert.

Wearing a metal mask and dressed in white, Zhang Ruochen fell from the sky and lightly landed on the ground as he asked, “Who was in the coffin?”

Two evil cultivators stared at each other and laid down the coffin. They took out their tenth-level Genuine Martial Arms and then launched an attack on Zhang Ruochen from different directions.

Their movements were so fast, leaving only two shadows on the ground.

It seemed that Zhang Ruochen did not attack while walking straight toward them. However, two rays of sword radiance flashed away.

“Swish!”

“Swish!”

When the sword radiance flashed before them, the two evil cultivators held their Genuine Martial Arms in their hands but did not move.

It was not until Zhang Ruochen walked to the coffin that he heard the sound of two bodies falling to the ground behind him.

The Abyss Ancient Sword flew around the two bodies again and it flew back to Spatial Ring after refining two tenth-level Genuine Martial Arms into a metal droplet and blending it into the blade.

Zhang Ruochen reached out to rest his hand on the edge of the coffin lid. He pushed it forward and the 50 kg coffin lid got thrown 33 meters away.

It looked like a new coffin, had no dust or odor. Instead, it had a faint fragrance.

Zhang Ruochen held his breath and looked at the coffin. He saw a graceful and charming maiden laying down, who was dressed in a nattier blue gown with her eyes closed, showing off her long and curled eyelashes.

She was breathtakingly beautiful. Her black hair was disheveled over the coffin; she had snow-white skin, crescent eyebrows, a refined nose, and an elegant lip. Nearly every part of her body was beautiful.

“Unexpectedly, the evil cultivators from the Black Market dug out a female corpse.”

Even though he had seen many beauties, Zhang Ruochen was amazed by this female corpse. She looked like a fairy who fell from heaven, who’s capable of making his heart move.

“If she were alive, she would have been a magnificent beauty! Even the cruelest man in the world would not be able to resist her charm, and would be willing to throw himself at her feet.”

Zhang Ruochen sighed, he was about to look for the lid to cover the coffin again.

All of a sudden, he heard a faint heartbeat.

Zhuang Ruochen stopped immediately and looked at the beauty in the coffin again. He listened carefully but could not hear anything. He seriously doubted if it was an illusion.

“Was she a trap that the Black Market laid?” Zhang Ruochen became alert.

However, when he probed her with Spiritual Power, he discovered that she had no aura, heartbeat, and breath, and even her jade-like tender body was ice-cold.

If she was alive, she could not have escaped his Spiritual Power, no matter how well she disguised herself.

Unless she was a Half-Saint.

If she was a Half-Saint, she did not have to deal with him in this way.

It’s really weird.

Thick dark clouds dispersed and bright moonlight scattered from the sky. It illuminated the dark area and shined on the beauty’s face.

The light made her seem even more gorgeous. Every inch of her skin was bright like a fairy jade, and every curve was flawless. She was incredibly appealing.

“With such smooth skin and such bright clothes, how could she be a body buried underground?”

Zhang Ruochen gasped in horror, shook his head, and grabbed the lid again to cover the coffin.

“Splash!”

Another faint heartbeat again.

This time, he was sure that he had heard it. Indeed, there was a heartbeat coming from the coffin. It must mean that the beauty in the coffin might be still alive. Perhaps she just entered into some strange state.

Zhang Ruochen put the lid down again and came to the side of the coffin. He reached out to grab her cold waist and checked if she was still alive.

Her skin was smooth like white silk, which distracted him when he touched her.

He soon regained his composure and injected the Genuine Qi into her wrist to detect if she was injured.

The Genuine Qi in the body of beauty went around once and then returned to his Qi sea.

“How did that happen? How could she turn into a living dead with no internal injury nor external injury?”

Being confused, he gently put her hands down. He was ready to lift her to check Sacred Meridian of her back.

Sacred Meridian was the main vein of all meridians, so he just needed to check whether there was Genuine Qi in the Sacred Meridian, to confirm if she was alive or not.

He bent down and was ready to lift her.

“Swoosh!”

Suddenly, a jade-white hand quickly reached out to remove his mask, to reveal his identity.

With his heart beating fast, he knew that he was still trapped. He instantly pushed up with his legs and moved backward.

He reacted so fast, but the beauty was faster. She put her long and slender arms around his neck, kissed him with her delicate lips.

Zhang Ruochen hurriedly retreated, but his neck was still tightly hooked by the beauty. The beauty flew up from the coffin, with her long hair and clothes disheveled. Her slender body was like boneless, and her slim waist formed an arc.

This image before him was both beautiful and thrilling as if a female corpse suddenly woke up to suck his Yang Qi.

Zhang Ruochen was ready to hit her with both palms, but he found that the beauty had opened her eyes; her eyes looked like two black fairy gems, staring at him with passion.

Different eyes, but the same sense of familiarity.

It’s her.

Zhang Ruochen withdrew his palms with perplexed eyes. He was mixed up with confusion and helplessness, even some wry smile.

She slipped her small and slippery tongue inside Zhang Ruochen’s mouth, swiftly and powerfully. Though she was not a good kisser, she eventually broke through his defense and kissed his tongue.

The kiss lasted for a long time. Zhang Ruochen had felt his lips numb before the beauty stopped kissing and kept breathing.

She continued to hold him tightly. She buried her head in his arms and said with a smile, “Now, are you still going to conceal yourself? Do you still need to hide from me and leave me again?”

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes, with a long sigh, “So you deliberately tempted me to come here?”

A smirk formed on the beauty’s face, she said, “Why did you hide? I couldn’t find you. However, I am sure that you will appear and save me in time if I get into danger.”

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhang Ruochen found that he had stepped into Mu Lingxi’s well-arranged pitfalls from the beginning.

He should have known that she was not going to be injured by Ice Demon and Cyan-robed Emissary because she was a clever girl who is protected with many treasures.

On second thought, he would still come to God Falling Ridge even if he had long suspected that Mu Lingxi deliberately tricked him because he would be worried about her.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Why did you feign death in the coffin?”

“If not, how can I relax your vigilance? Besides, only when you actively approach me can I take off your mask, to prevent you from pretending not to know me.”

Mu Lingxi’s smile gradually disappeared. Instead, her blinking eyes were covered with a layer of mist.

However, Zhang Ruochen did not realize her change in facial expression, and said, “How could you make sure that it’s me? Don’t you know that everyone thought that I was dead?”

“I just want to be able to… make sure.” Mu Lingxi said.

He felt some inexplicable frustration. Even though he wore a mask and only met Mu Lingxi on one occasion, she could still recognize him.

Mu Lingxi took on a new look. However, he could not recognize her even though she laid before him. Not until the moment she opened her eyes was he able to make sure it’s her.

It wasn’t Zhang Ruochen’s fault. After all, Mu Lingxi’s seals were arranged by High Priest of the heresy, which meant that she was capable of changing her appearance and temperament.

Even the Saint of the Holy Academy was unable to find that Mu Lingxi and Duanmu Xingling were the same people, how could Zhang Ruochen?

Zhang Ruochen felt the clothes on his chest became a little moist, with a warm stream dripping into the skin from the outside. He looked down at once and saw that Mu Lingxi was sobbing, her eyes filled with tears.

“Senior sister apprentice Duanmu, since we hardly see each other, can’t you be happy?” Zhang Ruochen said with doubt.

Mu Lingxi twitched her mouth, gently punched his chest, and said bitterly, “It’s just another meeting for you, but for me, it feels like I haven’t seen you for a lifetime.”

“Don’t you know how much my poor heart ached when I was told that you were killed by Nine Serenity Sword Saint? I felt like I couldn’t live; it was as if the sky was going to fall down and I became muddleheaded. I was foolish enough to go to the place where you died, only to find some incomplete bones. I buried them in tears and erected a stone tablet.”

“I had already passed out next to the tablet when I was found by the people my aunt sent to find me.”

“The man tried to take me away, but I didn’t want to go. I wanted to die. Then he told me that I should go on living and take revenge for you. Which gave me some desire and courage to continue living.”
