Soaring of Galaxia

Chapter 670: Shui Ruolan

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This girl in yellow was the most exceptional genius among the younger generation of the Emei Daoist Sect. She was called Ruo Ping Fairy.

A layer of coldness covered the face of this Ruo Ping Fairy for her expression appeared to be extremely grim. For those female disciples next to her, including Little Can, none of them dared to look at Ruo Ping Fairy, this Senior Sister, in the eye.

“Nine Change Celestial Tiger has awakened, but I see the accompanying divine fruit is gone. Say, how will you face the Chiefs when you head back?”

Ruo Ping Fairy revealed lightning-like brows as she berated, “If I had not been back in time to activate our defenses around the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, none of you would have even noticed until later on! I only hope that I have not initiated our defenses too late. Or else, if we let the person with the divine fruit escape out of the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, you will all receive the punishment of the Chiefs!”

This time, only young disciples were sent by the Emei Daoist Sect to host the general situation. The Emei Daoist Sect had intended to use this as a way to train the younger people. Considering the powerful divine skills of the white divine beast, Nine Change Celestial Tiger, the Emei Daoist Sect did not think they needed to worry about these younger warriors containing the situation. Unexpectedly, this was not the case.

Once every thousand years, the accompanying divine fruit of the Nine Change Celestia Tiger would appear. The Emei Daoist Sect had valued this divine fruit with utmost importance.

This was evident by the intricate defense mechanisms set up around the valley. Plus, with the protection of the Nine Change Celestial Tiger, the Emei Daoist Sect never thought an accident could occur!

The disciples all looked at each other in dismay. Little Can dressed in black moved her mouth to say, “Senior Sister, we are all only in charge of the exterior. Protecting the fruit of the Supreme Dao is the responsibility of Tiger Saint. This... You cannot blame us for it. Additionally, there is an abyss before the Supreme Dao Fruit and isn’t Junior Sister training down there? Since there was no reaction from her, it seems inappropriate to blame us, right?”

Little Can had a rather straightforward personality for she would say what was on her mind. It was not that she liked to talk back, but rather say everything that was on her mind.

Ruo Ping Fairy said with a cold sneer, “With this said, you guys don’t hold any responsibility?”

Little Can said with a grieved tone, “We are in charge of blocking all passes and did not see any problems with the perimeter. Regarding who’s responsible, Junior Sister holds much more responsibility than us.”

Ruo Ping Fairy was strangely not mad. She gave a faint, but long sigh. “Junior Sister, all of you know it, the Second Chief spoils her a lot. Even if it’s her responsibility, do you think it will be her taking the punishment in the end?”

Little Can said while remaining unconvinced, “Then as we’ve protected our posts, we cannot take punishment because of this?”

When Ruo Ping Fairy mentioned Junior Sister’s name, a helpless expression reseted on her face. Before this Junior Sister, even Senior Sister must bend down her proud head.

To speak from the bottom of her heart, she was somewhat unconvinced. However, the Chief does spoil Junior Sister as she possesses astonishing talent.

Upon having entered the martial arts world a few years ago, she has gone from a person with no training experience all the way to the Perfect Void Martial Stage! Although this was mostly induced by ancient and secret techniques from the Emei Daoist Sect, without raw talent and a strong bloodline, ordinary people would have had their bones snapped in two if they had undergone this secret technique.

“Senior Sister, before the Chief you better put in your best word for us. This time, we have lured in at least tens of thousands of martial artists. The loss of the fruit from the cave of the divine beast is not our fault. It wasn’t not part of our responsibility, right?”

Ruo Ping Fairy waved her hand. “Don’t be too worried, this matter has yet to reach a conclusion! If the person that stole the divine fruit is still within the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, we will certainly find a way to catch him. If he has already left, then we would be in trouble!”

Little Can said, “Senior Sister, the Tiger Saint went out to chase his prey and kill after awakening. Not long after, you had activated the prohibition. I believe that the thief would not have had enough time to get out. They would’ve needed time to enter the cave and pass through all those defensive barriers. The last barrier cannot be broken easily. Even if he had finished everything, it would have taken some more time to leave the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. With this calculation, he surely would not have had enough time!”

Ruo Ping Fairy also ran through this in her head and she nodded. “I also believe that the theif must still be in our valley!”

One must say that Little Can’s analysis made sense. However, she didn’t know that Qin Wushuang did not touch any defense mechanisms when he had entered the cave. It was because before that, Sky Pilfered Mole had already scouted out most of the terrain and plus Luo Yi had been opening the path ahead of him.

It did not take Qin Wushuang much effort to enter that cave. Once inside the cave, however, it did take him some time to break through the different barriers.

If it wasn’t for Xin Wuji stirring up trouble, Qin Wushuang could have easily escaped out of the Ten Thousand Flower Valley before the defensive barriers were activated.

Little Can said angrily, “Senior Sister, per our observation, this time at least a dozen martial artists at the Perfect Void Martial Stage have entered. There are even elite warriors at the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. However, certainly there are no elite warriors at the Supreme Dao Stage!”

Ruo Ping Fairy gave a serene sigh. “Yes, I know this. If a Supreme Dao warrior had entered, all the defenses of the Ten Thousand Flower Valley would have been activated! In the end, I was the one who activated it. Of course, no elite warriors of the Supreme Dao have entered!”

“With this said, the person who stole the Supreme Dao Fruit must be someone above the Perfect Void Martial Stage!” Little Can analyzed.

“Yes, basically yes. For those beneath the Perfect Void Martial Stage, it would be almost impossible to break the barriers of that cave!” Ruo Ping Fairy nodded and asked, “Little Can, for the ones you were monitoring, how many do you know that got close to the cave?”

Little Can said, “There were many of the freelance martial artists of our Illusion Heavenly Lake and I don’t know them. However, I did get an impression from a few special people.”

“Oh, who are they?”

Little Can said, “The one that left me the deepest impression is Xin Wuji, the son of the Heavenly Emperor of the Xuan Yuan Mound! Ever since he appeared at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, I was paying attention to him. He also brought along three friends.”

“Xin Wuji?” A surprised look had appeared from Ruo Ping Fairy’s eyes. “This Xin Wuji is also taking part in the show?”

“Senior Sister, Xin Wuji is surely powerful! When he walked among the crowd, he definitely stood out.” When Little Can talked about Xin Wuji, she was somewhat impressed.

Ruo Ping Fairy gave a long sigh. “How can Xin Wuji be so powerful? Among the six major Daoist Sects, no one can match with Xin Wuji!”

“Senior Sister, even you could not match up with him?” Little Can was surprised.

“Now I am only at the peak of the Profound Mysterious Stage. However, Xin Wuji is already at the Common Mysterious Stage and could enter the Supreme Dao Stage at anytime!” Ruo Ping Fairy asked coldly, “You say, is he stronger, or am I stronger?”

“Peak of the Common Mysterious?” Little Can was surprised, but she continued to say, “No wonder he revealed such a strong aura. Indeed, that Xin Wuji is powerful.”

When she said that, suddenly a trace of strange light flashed from Little Can’s eyes as she asked, “Senior Sister, could it be he is the person who has stolen the Supreme Dao Fruit?”

“It’s possible!” Being the son of the Heavenly Emperor, Xin Wuji must possess Supreme Dao weapons and more or less grasped some of the Supreme Dao attack principals. It’s not entirely impossible for him to break through those defenses!” The tone of Ruo Ping Fairy had instantly become stern. “Pass my order, all eyes of the valley will move to track Xin Wuji. As soon as you discover his location, immediately send your spiritual perception to inform me!”

“Senior Sister, all of us cannot fight against him,” Little Can said emotionally. “Is it possible to send Tiger Saint?”

Ruo Ping Fairy asked indifferently, “What? You would not want to?”

Little Can’s face turned red. “It has nothing to do with me, there is nothing to be reluctant. However Senior Sister, that Xin Wuji is a good candidate for you to pass the love barrier. If you can pass Xin Wuji, wouldn’t you have a greater hope to dash for the Supreme Dao Stage?”

Ruo Ping Fairy said with a wry smile, “I would not dare.”

Little Can found her reaction strange. “Why not?”

Ruo Ping Fairy gave a long sigh. “Regardless, he is more powerful than me in all aspects. If I find him to pass the love barrier, it would be tragic if I became trapped deeply within it and consigned to eternal damnation.”

Little Can chuckled. “It would be so much easier if I was also at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. I could play with Xin Wuji in the Ten Thousand Flower Valley and make my way to the Supreme Dao Stage!”

“Stop with the daydreaming. You should consider how you can dash for the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage! With your current strength, you are already solidified at the Perfect Void Martial Stage. If you don’t work hard and miss the perfect timing, it will not work towards your future advantage! You would not want to allow Junior Sister to climb up and enter the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage before you, right?”

Little Can raised the corner of her mouth. “Of course not, I will certainly get there before Junior Sister, just watch me!”

Ruo Ping Fairy said lightly, “Alright, pass the order quickly and do not make a mistake. Immediately inform me when you see a trace of Xin Wuji! I will contact Tiger Saint!”

After she had finished, suddenly, the figure of this Ruo Ping Fairy had transformed into a burst of faint green light. Then, her entire body disappeared into the void.

In a moment, Ruo Ping Fairy’s figure had dropped before the divine beast’s cave. Frowning slightly, she walked to the cave only after she observed her surroundings for a while.

As if taking a walk in the park, she arrived before the abyss. Ruo Ping Fairy saw a broken long vine withered on the stone platform.

After the divine fruit was taken, the long vine also withered.

Feeling extremely frustrated, a trace of vile intentions flashed across the eyes of Ruo Ping Fairy. She glared towards the bottom of the abyss and secretly gritted her teeth. “Shui Ruolan, Shui Ruolan, was this a mistake?”

These words, she could only think to herself and would not dare to speak them loud. After some hesitation, as if having made a difficult decision, she waved her sleeve and the water of the abyss separated to two sides like a curtain. It formed two water curtains that opened to a space below the abyss.

This abyss was a dozen metres high. Suddenly, a burst of white light dashed up from beneath the abyss. A bundle of air slowly dashed up with it. Like a blooming white lotus flower, a person was gracefully sitting. If Qin Wushuang had witnessed this scene, surely he would have cried out in astonishment.

This person was indeed, the little divine doctor, Shui Ruolan, who he had met in the Bowl Valley. This kind and naive girl still appeared youthful as if traces of age were never left on her.

“Senior Sister, what business do you have with me?” Shui Ruolan spoke with a light tone.
