Chapter 122: I'll give you a song, "The Demon's Soul Breaks."
The Qi family mansion was being smashed and looted. Qiu Ziyue heard that Qi Yushuang and Qi Yuxuan had already consummated their marriage. Her three senior brothers, Liu Xu, and Liu Qingluo all came to comfort her.
Qiu Ziyue was stunned. Everything around her froze, and she couldn't hear anything.
She felt a voice mocking her: "Qiu Ziyue, you fool, you've loved the wrong person, you're just a fool."
Just moments later,
"ah……"
Qiu Ziyue screamed at the sky, her heart-wrenching cries echoing through the heavens.
"Don't force me!" Qiu Ziyue roared.
"You old scoundrel, Prince Qi, we can talk about my business with Qi Yuxuan later, but you get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being ruthless."
"What can you, a little brat, do to me?" Li Maozhen said.
“Alright, Prince Qi, I’ll perform the song ‘The Demon Soul’ for you. Enjoy it,” Qiu Ziyue said.
Then, Qiu Ziyue said to her three senior brothers, Liu Xu, and Liu Qingluo, "Just plug your ears and calm down."
After saying that, Qiu Ziyue's eyes were resolute.
Qiu Ziyue gently took out the jade flute and looked at Li Maozhen with a determined gaze.
She took a deep breath, raised the jade flute to her lips, and slowly began to play "The Demon Soul's Severance".
As the melody of the jade flute resounded, a powerful sound wave filled the air, instantly creating a mysterious atmosphere.
The sound waves spread out rapidly, like invisible ripples.
Li Maozhen's men immediately felt a sharp headache, covered their ears, and groaned in pain.
"What kind of sorcery is this!" a soldier cried out in terror.
Qiu Ziyue continued playing, and the sound waves grew stronger and stronger, as if they had transformed into a powerful airflow that swirled and danced in the air.
Li Maozhen couldn't help but frown. He felt a sharp pain in his brain, and his vision began to blur.
Just as Li Maozhen and his men were in agony, their surroundings suddenly changed.
Illusory figures appeared in the air, and the soldiers began to see all sorts of terrifying hallucinations.
Some saw evil spirits haunting them, some saw flames burning them, and some saw their loved ones die tragically.
Li Maozhen was not spared either; he felt a splitting headache and terrifying images flashed before his eyes.
His face was pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently.
"Bang, bang, bang"
The sound was like thunder, deafening.
The ground in the courtyard cracked, dust flew everywhere, and the entire mansion seemed to be shaking.
"King Qi, run!" a soldier shouted in terror.
Just as everyone was in a panic, a beam of light rose from the ground, and a huge Qilin appeared before them.
Its whole body radiated golden light, its eyes were like burning flames, and it opened its blood-red maw, letting out a deafening roar.
The Qilin leaped up and pounced on Li Maozhen's men.
The soldiers were terrified and scattered in all directions.
The enormous Qilin slapped with its claws and tore with its teeth, leaving the courtyard in a mess in no time.
Li Maozhen felt a sharp pain in his heart and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He knew that only someone with profound inner strength could play such a powerful piece, and only someone with profound inner strength could withstand it.
He could not hold on any longer. Seeing this, he was terrified. He knew that if he did not retreat, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He shouted, "Retreat! Retreat now!"
Some soldiers coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground, while others clutched their heads and fled the Qi family mansion in a disheveled state, leaving behind a scene of chaos.
“Li Maozhen, if you dare to cause trouble at the Qi family mansion again, next time I will make sure your souls are scattered.”
As Li Maozhen fled, Qiu Ziyue's voice kept echoing in his ears.
"Your Highness, this is the female demon using telepathy! We must run!" a guard exclaimed.
“What use are you useless trash? Even if you know, so what? You can’t deal with this,” Li Maozhen said.
In the courtyard of the Qi family mansion, the Qilin circled once in the air before turning into a beam of light and disappearing.
With the departure of the Qilin, the mansion gradually returned to peace.
Qiu Ziyue put away her jade flute, slightly out of breath.
Qi Yuxuan stepped forward: "Ziyue, what's wrong?"
Qiu Ziyue felt a little dizzy, and suddenly a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
"Ziyue, your mouth is bleeding," Qi Yuxuan stepped forward and tried to wipe the blood from Qiu Ziyue's mouth with his sleeve.
"No need, Qi Yuxuan, thank you. Let's break it off. You should marry Qi Yushuang," Qiu Ziyue said wearily, her eyes glazed over.
“Ziyue, it’s not like that, you promised to believe me,” Qi Yuxuan said.
"Senior brothers, Liu Xu, let's go." After saying this to her three senior brothers, Qiu Ziyue leaped away and left resolutely like a fairy.
The three senior brothers and Liu Xu followed closely behind, leaving the Qi family mansion.
"Ziyue, wait for me." Qi Yuxuan also used his lightness skill to chase after her.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, Qiu Ziyue felt dizzy and weak all over, and suddenly fell from the sky.
The senior disciple Qiu Langyu, who was behind her, reacted quickly, scooped up Qiu Ziyue around the waist, and gently landed her on the ground.
"Twilight Sparkle, have you forgotten that you promised me you would believe me?"
Qi Yuxuan arrived and said anxiously.
Qiu Ziyue weakly squinted her eyes, her vision began to blur, and then she fainted.
Senior Brother Qiu Langyu said to Qi Yuxuan, "Qi Yuxuan, why did you hurt your junior sister again?"
Second Senior Brother Qiu Wentian said, "Young Master Qi, don't blame me for saying this, we've already given you a chance."
Third Senior Brother Qiu Wenfeng said, "Why waste words with this brat? I'll challenge you to a duel in a few days. I want to avenge my junior sister."
"Let's go."
After Qiu Langyu finished speaking, he picked up Qiu Ziyue and flew away.
Liu Xu, standing behind Qi Yuxuan, said, "Young Master Qi, really, you should go back and check on your family first. Your family is still at the mansion. I'll go take care of Sister Ziyue first."
After hearing this, Qi Yuxuan did not turn back, but continued to run towards the direction of the Valley of Passion.
After an unknown amount of time, Qiu Ziyue gradually regained consciousness.
She opened her eyes and found herself lying in a simple thatched hut, with her three senior brothers and Liu Xu beside her.
She felt physically weak, but her mind was still relatively clear.
"Twilight Sparkle, you're finally awake."
Senior Brother Qiu Langyu breathed a sigh of relief and said with concern.
Qiu Ziyue nodded slightly, a wave of sorrow washing over her as she recalled everything that had happened.
She remembered what Valley Master Qiu Ruoshui had once told her: "Try to use the Tao Family's Mystic Secrets as little as possible, especially the ultimate moves, which will not only deplete your internal energy, but may also cause you to go into qi deviation."
She recalled the words the old man she had met when she first transmigrated into this world had spoken to her.
The old man told her that she would encounter many hardships in her life, but as long as she could overcome one, she would gain an extra lifespan.
Qiu Ziyue was exhausted, both physically and mentally. She was truly tired and heartbroken.
She longed to return to a peaceful and prosperous world, free from the fighting and killing in this martial arts world.
But fate always seemed to give her more trials.
"Twilight Sparkle, how are you feeling?"
Liu Xu asked with concern.
Qiu Ziyue smiled slightly and said softly, "Thank you all, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired."
Liu Xu nodded and said gently, "You should rest well. We will protect you."
Qiu Ziyue closed her eyes and prayed silently.
She knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead might be, she had to persevere.
Because she knew that only in this way could she find her way home.
Just then, footsteps came from outside the door.
Qi Yuxuan pushed open the door and walked in.
He saw that Qiu Ziyue had woken up, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Twilight Sparkle, you're awake."
Qi Yuxuan stepped forward, his tone apologetic, "I'm sorry, I've hurt you again, but I'm truly innocent."
Thank you so much for reading!
