Phoenix Destiny-Chapter 414 - Did not died peacefully

“Heh.

Junior niece Lu.

I hope you can do me a favour by letting me die in peace.”

见她没有反对,祁掌院继续道:”我以为,已经将你的实力高估了三分有余,为何还是败在你手?若论玄力深厚,招式精妙,就算不如你,也差不了多少吧?甚至可以说,有他们相助,我之玄力,比你更加深厚.”

Seeing that there’s no response from her, Courtyard leader Qi continued.

“I just want the answer to my defeat.

I have already overestimate Junior niece’s ability and have even stronger mystic force than you.

I admit that I am nowhere near being as skilled as you, so why?”

陆明舒淡淡道:”玄力再深厚又怎样?非同级的力量,如何相比?一个力大无比的凡人,你会怕他吗?”

“Strong, but we are on a different level.” Lu Mingshu replied in plainly.

“Would you be afraid of a muggle who is strong?”

祁掌院一愣.这是他从来没有想过的答案,非同级的力量,什么样的层次,才可以说是非同级的力量?可回想起刚才的交战经过,好像只有这么解释才合理.她的剑招,她的玄力,看着不出奇,却有一种难以言说的玄妙.

This hit courtyard leader Qi hard.

He has never realised skills was that important.

So what makes them the same level?

It’s hard to draw a clear line between the levels, but that’s the only reason he could figure out too.

~ Her skills and mystic force is indeed unique.

It may seem ordinary, but there’s something in it that makes it different from mine.~

“瞑目了吗?”冷淡的声音传来.

“Can you die in peace now?” Lu Mingshu’s cold voice rang through his ears.

祁掌院嘴角流血,一边笑一边点头:”好,好!陆师侄,多谢你了.”

Upon understanding his defeat, Courtyard leader Qi has no more regrets.

He looks up at Lu Mingshu, smiling genuinely while blood flows out of his mouth.

“Yes, yes!

Thank you so much.

Junior niece Lu.”

话音落,他闭上眼,似乎要引颈就戮.

He then close his eyes, lying down as if waiting to be killed.

没想到这场战斗这么快就结束了.宇文师半晌才回过神,叹息一句:”实力压制之下,再多的心机,又有什么用?真是,可惜了…”

Yu-Wen Shi stared at the scene dumbfoundedly.

~That’s fast…Under the pressure of ability, mind games are really nothing, huh?

Such a pity…~

这句话,曾经是他们用来形容陆明舒的,现在用来形容他们,也正合适.

This is what they used to describe Lu Mingshu, and it’s now going back to them.

刚想转开头,忽见祁掌院的手动了一下,宇文师一愣,脱口而出:”小心——”

Just as Yu-Wen Shi is about to turn around and walk away, he saw Courtyard leader Qi’s hand jolt up from the corner of his eyes.

“Oh no!

Be careful!” He shouted at Lu Minghsu immediately.

然而,他的警示太晚了,话出口的同时,已有一道虚影从祁掌院怀中飞出,迅捷无比,直扑而去.

However, it’s too late.

A shadow has already jumped out of Courtyard leader Qi’s body and within no time, it pounced on Lu Mingshu.

这道虚影看着飘渺,一出现就让人有一种极端危险的感觉.武者修为高了,直觉非常灵敏,这种感觉,往往代表着更强大的实力.

The shadow is dim, but it makes Yu-Wen Shi shivers.

The higher cultivation a cultivator has, the more sensitive they are to danger.

And this feeling mostly symbolises extreme danger.

这一刻,不知道有多少人揪着心.

At this moment, everyone present held their breath.

周派长老,无不希望这道虚影要了陆明舒的性命,那样他们还有翻身的余地.而反周派系,则希望陆明舒安全躲过,到了最后关头,要是她死在这里,恐怕会功亏一篑.

The pro-Zhou family elders all hoped that Lu Mingshu would die under this shadow, so they would have a chance of surviving.

While the anti-zhou family elders all hoped for Lu Mingshu to survive.

~If she doesn’t, our efforts would all go to waste and we would be doomed.~ Yu-Wen Shi crossed his fingers.

虚影击中了陆明舒,一道金光从她指间掠起.瞬间,”嘭”的一声,虚影化为浓雾.而那道金光,则扩大成一个金色光罩,将陆明舒罩了进去.

The shadow struck onto Lu Mingshu.

A golden coloured ray of light could be seen flickering on Lu Mingshu’s fingers.

“Boom—” The shadow has now dissapered, and the ray of light start expanding at the speed of lightning, then drowning Lu Mingshu.

金光与浓雾交错,隐隐约约只看到一个人影在其中飘动,却不知道具体情形如何.宇文师屏住了呼吸,一时间手心全是冷汗.

Fog starts to form around the area, and all the elders could see was a figure struggling amongst the fog and light.

It was so blurry that they are unable to figure out what’s going on.

Yu-Wen Shi took in a deep breath and clenched his fist.

~I hope that everything would be fine.~

此时,青玉峰上.

Currently on the Blue jade Peak.

“咔嚓!”一声,裂瓷声传来.

“Crack!”

“公子?”谢长晖吓了一跳,回头一看,谢廉贞手中握的杯子碎成了粉末.

“Young master?” XIe Zhanghui jumped up and ran over to Xie Lianzhen.

The cup in Xie Lianzhen’s hands has now turned into dust.

他垂眸看着手心的碎瓷半晌,才轻轻道:”没事.”

“Xie Lianzhen stared at the broken ceramic in his hands blankly.

After a few seconds, he then looks up at Xie Zhanghui.

“Yeah, I’m fine.”

话是这么说,却握紧了拳头.

Xie Lianzhen tightened the clench on his fist.

神女遗迹内,金光和浓雾好不容易散去,宇文师急奔上前:”陆师侄?”

Updat𝓮d fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.

In the Goddess’s remnants.

The light and fogs have dispersed.

Yu-Wen Shi rushed up ti Lu Mingshu.

“Junior niece Lu?”

陆明舒的身影仍然稳稳地站着,但她的胸口,出现了一道血痕.

Lu Mingshu stood rooted to the ground with no response.

But there’s a deep up on her chest.

“哈哈哈哈!”祁掌院笑出声来,一向隐藏得极好的脸上,第一次展露出深深的恶意,”陆师侄,你知道这世上最危险的是什么吗?不是高超的剑法,也不是绝妙的秘技,而是人心!只要人心够险恶,就会有更可怕的杀招.如何?就算你实力比我强大许多,还不是被我暗算了!”

“Hahahaha!” Courtyard leader Qi laughed.

This is the first time that a courtyard leader Qi, who is good at masking his true feelings shows it on his face.

“Junior niece Lu, do you know what’s the most dangerous thing in the world?

It’s humans.

They are scarier than skills and even ability.

The more scheming one is, the more powerful they are!

Do you understand now?

So what if you are way better than me?

Look, you’re still being seized by me.”

“祁志和!”宇文师呛然一声,拔剑出鞘,”就算陆师侄死了,你也别想活下去!”

“Qi Zhihe!” Yu-Wen Shi snapped and pulled out his sword.

“Do you think you can live peacefully is she’s dead?”

祁掌院看向他,露出一个轻蔑的笑:”宇文师,宇文师兄,你以为自己很厉害?实话告诉你,我从来没把你放在眼里!论心机,你不够阴险,论本性,你又不够公正,两头不靠,说的就是你.就凭你这样,永远也坐不上掌门之位!”

Courtyard leader Qi look up at Yu-Wen Shi and snicked, “Senior brother Yu-Wen, calm down and look at your ability!

To be honest, in terms of every aspect, you are not my competition!

Physical wise, characteristic wise or even psychological wise.

My dear senior brother, if you continue being like this, you will never be the Sect leader!”

宇文师呼吸粗重,恶狠狠地看着他.

Yu-Wen shi gripped tightly onto his sword and stared at Courtyard leader Qi with hatred.

祁掌院却毫不在乎,尽管此刻,是他跪着宇文师站着,可是精神上,却是他俯视着宇文师.

However, Courtyard leader Qi paid no attention to him.

Even though Courtyard leader Qi is kneeling down and Yu-Wen Shi is currently looking down onto him, but to him, he’s way superior to Yu-Wen shi.

A level better.

宇文师到底是只老狐狸,略一平复,就知道这是祁掌院的挑拨之语.他当不上掌门,确实有性格的因素,但更多是权力之争的结果.

Still, Yu-Wen shi could play mind games well.

He calmed himself down and realised that Courtyard leader Qi was saying so to incite him.

Yes, Yu-Wen Shi knew that his character is a factor deterring him from being the sect leader.

~But the results of the fight is a more determining factor!~

“祁志和,你说这些有什么意义?就算杀了陆师侄,你也死定了!一个死人,轮不到你得意,你今天拼死杀了陆师侄,也不过是让别人品尝胜利的果实.”

“Qi Zhihe, what’s the use of saying all this?

Even if you have killed Junior niece Lu, you would surely be dead too!

The sect leader’s position would never be yours, and you would just be looking at someone else getting the benefit.”

“哈哈哈!”祁掌院却是大笑,”我就说,不值得把你看在眼里.你以为,所有争斗的意义,就是谁胜利吗?焉知交战的过程,不是一种乐趣?就算今日我死,能赢下这么一个对手,也是无憾了.”

“Hahaha!” Courtyard leader Qi laughed and shook his head.

“See, this is what makes you inferior to me.

If all fights are valuable only if you win then what’s the deal of us fighting?

The process is the most important factor!

Even if I die, I would have no regrets, because I have defeated such a powerful opponent.”

“你…”师兄弟多年,宇文师竟是第一次知道,祁志和是这样的人物.面对这种人,完全束手无策,就算他死,好像也是自己输了一般.

“You…” They have been brothers for years, and this is the first time Yu-Wen shi seen this Qi Zhihe.

The one that makes you feel extremely inferior and useless against him.

宇文师深深体会到一种无力感.

And the first time that Yu-Wen shi felt so lost.

忽听一个声音响起:”谁说我死了?”

“Who said that I’m dead?” A voice rang across the place.

祁掌院猛然瞪大眼,看向不远处的陆明舒.

Courtyard leader Qi widen his eyes in shock, looking at Lu Mingshu with his jaws wide open.

陆明舒身影晃了晃,慢慢伸手按在胸口,微一使力,将一柄轻巧的飞刀取出,抛在他面前:”祁掌院,你也太自信了吧?凭这么个东西,就想要我的命?”

Lu Mingshu moved slightly and pressed her palm onto her chest.

She put pressure onto her chest and a blade dropped out of her chest.

She picked it up and threw it at Courtyard leader Qi.

“Courtyard leader Qi, it’s not good to be too confident.

How could just this take my life?”

“…”祁掌院脸色白得可怕,喃喃道,”不可能,这怎么可能…”

“…” Courtyard leader Qi’s legs wobble.

He turn as pale as a sheet of paper and looked around for a place to hide.

“No, how could this happen…”

这东西,是他压箱底的绝招,从未现于人前,自信就算是化物境,想躲过也难,她怎么会…

This is his ultimate secret, something that nobody has ever seen before.

Qi Zhihe is sure that, even an assimilation realm may not be able to escape this.

按在伤口处的掌心冒出玄光,伤口飞快地愈合,很快血止住了.陆明舒慢慢走近,居高临下看着他:”忘了我之前说的话了吗?一个凡人,就算力大无穷,你会怕他?对你来说,难以想象的力量,对我而言,不过如此.”

The palm that Lu Mingshu pressed on her chest lit up with mystic light, and within no time, the injury healed.

Lu Mingshu walked over to Courtyard leader Qi slowly and sneered.

“I can’t believe you weren’t listening to me.

Would you be afraid of a muggle who is strong?

You’re indeed strong for a muggle, but to me, you’re nothing.”

“你…”

“You…”

“很抱歉,祁师叔,让你死不瞑目了.”

“I’m so sorry, senior uncle Qi that you wouldn’t have a peaceful death.”

话音落,她连说话的机会都不给他,剑身微微一转,剑光跃起,人头滚落下来.

Lu Mingshu jumped up while saying that and “Swoosh–” A head dropped to the ground.

到最后,祁掌院仍然难以置信地瞪着眼.

With Qi Zhihe’s eyes wide opened.

鸦雀无声.

Silence.

周系长老们,瞪大眼睛看着这一幕,似乎还不相信,祁掌院就这样丢了性命.

The pro-zhou’s elder stared at each other in utter disbelief.

~Did Qi Zhihe, just died?~

“好了,该你们了.”少女轻柔的嗓音传来,听在耳中,却好似恶魔一般,”别反抗,我可以让你们死得痛快一点…”

“Okay, it’s your turn now.” Lu Mingshu said softly as if she’s calming them down.

“If you do not resist, it will be less painful…”
