Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind-Chapter 91 - 80: Lucky Cave

Wu Ping stared blankly at Ji Lingruo, whose face was as cold as ice, and couldn’t help but recall that day. A hand had climbed up the edge of a well, terrifying everyone like a ghostly woman falling into the mist.

The girl who had always been held in You Su’s arms jumped out, still holding the unconscious You Su.

She looked coldly at everyone present, and without a word, charged forward. Under her hand, everyone’s life was as easily torn as rice paper, and the gushing blood stained the white mist with a hellish red. Only Qi Daodong, fleeing desperately, barely managed to save the two of them.

At that time, there was also a cloud of black aura surrounding the girl.

This forced Wu Ping to remain vigilant, but to his surprise, before the girl made a move, You Su immediately stood up and attacked again.

His murderous intent seemed to have materialized, and he stepped forward to swing his sword once more, with a majestic momentum.

Wu Ping’s pupils contracted like beans, wondering why You Su always became braver with setbacks. The power of this sword was even stronger than before!

The white mist entwined around the sword blade followed the flow of the Profound Qi between heaven and earth, making this strike the center of a tornado.

Wu Ping then used the most skilled strike from the Shouxiu Sword Scripture, the only move he had mastered.

Unlike his highly perceptive brother, he had secretly trained hard to hone this one strike, hoping to amaze everyone one day.

Proving effective indeed, a continuous sword strike appeared, surprisingly blocking all of You Su’s killing intent!

A violent wave of Qi burst forth between the two, and they were both knocked back again.

Wu Ping sneered, now wearing Wu Cheng’s face, yet still acknowledging his former ugly and wretched self deep down, hating people like You Su with such exquisite appearances. At this moment, he felt he was finally about to fulfill his dream, to trample You Su’s face underfoot.

"You Su, is this all you got?" Wu Ping’s smile became more twisted as he approached leisurely, "I thought you so-called geniuses had something special. In the end, with a change of bodies, everyone is the same..."

You Su licked the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, his iron-hard muscles seemed about to burst through his sleeves as he gripped his sword, which shone with a cold gleam.

Wu Ping remembered it, this was the sword that made Wu Cheng voluntarily concede defeat, the sword that even Qi Daodong at Water Condensation Realm Perfection couldn’t trap!

This time, it was his turn to endure this sword strike!

He seemed to hear the incessant shrieking of the Mo Song Sword in You Su’s hand, its momentum growing ever stronger, like a thousand wild oxen charging directly at him, getting closer and closer!

He didn’t understand what Sword Intent was; he only felt he was about to die!

Desperately, he recalled how his brother and master responded... The master relied on an overwhelming cultivation difference, but his brother? That’s right! This body can simultaneously cast two Skills!

Thinking of this, his smile twisted, and as You Su stepped forward, he began chanting an intricate incantation.

Ancient spells flowed from Wu Ping’s mouth, resonating with the Profound Qi between heaven and earth. An Earth Binding Skill and a Thunderbolt Skill, combining these should surely stall this blind man!

Thud.

The sword light dissipated, and the white mist in the entire alley vanished. Wu Cheng’s head, along with the octopus head on his back, fell to the ground with a dull thud.

Pitch-black ink and bright red blood intermingled, flowing to You Su’s feet.

"Trash ultimately remains trash, even with talent it’s the same. Had it been your brother, these two Skills would have held me for at least a breath."

You Su’s whisper was the final judgment on Wu Ping’s death. He wiped his sword and sheathed it, mourning for Wu Cheng in his heart.

Ji Lingruo trotted over. The faint black aura had dissipated, and she was once again that charming young girl.

"Senior Brother, are you okay?"

You Su shook his head. Although he had killed Wu Ping, he wasn’t relieved at all. At this moment, the Dream-eating Ghost lurking in the shadows was the greatest threat.

The Dream-eating Ghost had tried so hard to force them out, indicating it also didn’t want to expose itself before so many people. Now that Wu Ping was dead, no one knew that You Su was the killer, so returning to the Lucky Cave was the most suitable decision.

"Let’s go back." You Su held Ji Lingruo’s hand again, pulling her into the white mist.

You Su dared not walk too fast; he had to constantly guard against the Dream-eating Ghost, hidden somewhere. But apart from some low-level evil creatures, where was the Dream-eating Ghost?

Though it was good news, it didn’t make sense. Wu Ping created chaos at this time, meaning the Dream-eating Ghost should be lurking nearby, so why hadn’t it appeared?

You Su was puzzled. Could it be that the Taisui on his junior sister wasn’t its target? Or had it already accomplished its goal and wasn’t in a hurry to make a move?

The question was unresolved when the two reached the outside of the City Lord’s Mansion, intending to sneak in through the side door, only to hear people conversing there. Unfortunately, the fog was so dense, they could hear the voices but not see the people.

"Mr. Lv, you’ve finally returned. We were waiting for you."

"Are we the last patrol team out?"

"Yes. A major event happened in the cave, and everyone was urgently called back."

"What exactly happened?"

"Three terrifying evil creatures appeared in the cave, the kind that doesn’t require mist! With chaos inside, the Sect Leaders couldn’t unleash their full strength on account of the situation, it was a complete mess!"

"Is that so? How was it finally resolved?"

"It was Mr. Liou! Mr. Liou took action to exorcise those three evil creatures. Now, to ensure everyone’s safety, everyone was summoned back to the cave."

"Mr. Liou?! Wasn’t Mr. Liou out of town with my grandfather and Mr. Zhou? What about my grandfather?"

"Ah, only Mr. Liou returned alive. It’s said the reason they couldn’t get out... is because there’s a traitor in the city! So, Mr. Liou hid in the shadows while healing, observing, and only Mr. Bai knows about this."

"What!" Lv Yang gritted his teeth, "Who?"

"Ah, they haven’t found out. But it’s said Mr. Bai discovered an Array to effectively isolate the fog. So it’s better to return quickly for safety, there’s no time to worry about others," the gate guard added, "No more talking, Mr. Lv, let’s get inside quickly. If we don’t go in before the Array activates, we won’t be able to enter."

After speaking, no more voices were heard, only the rustling footsteps and the thud of a door closing.

Ji Lingruo was apparently a bit anxious, and she looked at You Su, who was dazed in place, puzzled, "Senior Brother, shouldn’t we hurry inside?"

You Su, however, didn’t respond to Ji Lingruo. He leaned against the wall, his brows furrowing deeply, as if a bolt of lightning flashed, illuminating countless hidden clues in his mind!

Mr. Liou... there’s a problem!

Despite it being the juncture of summer and autumn, the surrounding mist seemed to have turned into winter frost, plunging everyone into a silent and icy fear!

Suddenly, a cold wind blew from somewhere, scattering the mist around You Su and Ji Lingruo. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

A hunched and emaciated old man emerged from the thin mist, kindly and benign:

"You Su? Why are you outside?"
