Ch 199: A Cruel Twist Of Fate

In the dark world, all memory images disappeared, Qiu Yi looked at Laier who was bowing her head and trembling.

“Meng Sha, that’s enough.”

Qiu Yi ordered.

Meng Sha released Laier’s weirdness, and then Laier left this dark world.

Qiu Yi opened his eyes, and Laier, who was sitting cross-legged in front of him, also opened her eyes.

Laier showed a moment of fear, and after forcibly calming down, she looked at Qiu Yi with awe.

“Okay, it’s all done.”

Qiu Yi got up. Now he roughly knew An Xin Yan’s location and the specific route.

“That forest, I just entered, and An Xin Yan came out.”

“We missed each other like that. It’s really fate playing tricks on people.”

Qiu Yi said self-deprecatingly, then turned to Laier and said:

“Are you coming with me, or…?”

Laier got up, patted her pants, and said:

“Of course, together.”

Qiu Yi nodded and immediately set off with Laier.

The route wasn’t complicated, and since Qiu Yi was already familiar with the location of the Chaotic Life Divine Realm, the travel speed was very fast.

Along the way, Qiu Yi could vaguely sense many threatening auras, but the creatures at the source of those auras quietly left after noticing Qiu Yi.

“They’re quite sensible.”

Qiu Yi snorted coldly.

Those creatures hidden in the dark were very afraid of Qiu Yi.

“There are more and more creatures nearby.”

“We need to hurry.”

Qiu Yi muttered to himself, frowning.

He was afraid that even stronger, unmanageable horrors would appear later.

Quickening his pace, he finally reached the target cave after half an hour.

“We’re here.”

Qiu Yi said softly.

Laier honestly followed behind, without making a sound.

Qiu Yi went in first, turning left and right along the path, and quickly found An Xin Yan.

An Xin Yan was lying on the ground, her black hair disheveled, with several wounds on her body.

Laier was greatly shocked, covering her mouth, and said unbelievably:

“How come there’s a person here?”

Qiu Yi quickly went up and hugged An Xin Yan from the icy rock ground into his arms.

Activating Ice Woman, the cold Qi invaded An Xin Yan’s body, instantly removing Fake Laier.

Laier approached and examined An Xin Yan:

“Is this the person you’re looking for?”

Qiu Yi nodded.

“What’s the situation? Why does she have so many wounds?”

Laier was surprised and took out a small box from her clothes.

“You should ask you that.” Qiu Yi replied.

“Me?”

Laier blushed, as if she guessed the reason. Holding the small box, she took out some medical supplies and applied medicine to An Xin Yan.

Fortunately, the wounds were shallow and not serious.

After doing this, Laier got up and glanced at the white box on the ground.

“My Translation Box.”

Laier quickly stepped forward and picked up the Translation Box.

Now, she was even more certain that it was her weirdness that attacked An Xin Yan.

This Translation Box was stolen by Fake Laier and now appeared here, which is the best evidence.

“I’m sorry, I really can’t control it.”

Laier said ashamedly, sat down beside her, and quietly looked at An Xin Yan:

“Should we just wait for her to wake up?”

“Yeah.” Qiu Yi straightened An Xin Yan’s long hair.

“Anyway, you don’t have anything to do, right?”

Qiu Yi said with a smile.

Now that An Xin Yan was found, the heavy burden in his heart was lifted, and he felt much more relaxed.

“I have nothing to do, as long as I can safely slack off.”

Laier rubbed her eyes, suddenly feeling sleepy.

She had just slept, but now she wanted to take a nap again.

It was probably because she was too nervous and afraid at the ruins, keeping her spirits tense.

Laier looked left and right, then glanced at Qiu Yi, thinking that there would be no danger here, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Qiu Yi felt An Xin Yan’s body temperature; her originally icy cold body was now warming up and improving.

“She should be fine.”

Qiu Yi took a deep breath.

“Next, we just have to wait for Xin Yan to wake up and then take her out.”

As for how An Xin Yan would get out, Qiu Yi didn’t know yet.

However, judging from his own situation, An Xin Yan should also be looking for an escape route.

This location is probably only perceivable by An Xin Yan herself.

“As for escorting her, that’s simple.”

Qiu Yi was confident in himself.

In this large area, unless those creatures united to deal with him, otherwise…

He could do as he pleased.

Qiu Yi leaned against the wall, adjusting An Xin Yan’s posture, letting her lie comfortably on his chest.

“But we still need to be cautious.”

“If there’s a Star Holding Rank creature, it would still be difficult to deal with.”

Qiu Yi had never seen a real Star Holding Rank creature. All the descriptions of Star Holding Rank creatures he had heard were from Gang Pi.

“Reaching Star Holding Rank means you can become the guardian god of a race…”

“That must be very strong.”

As Qiu Yi was pondering, a snow-white, icy cold hand reached out from behind his neck.

“Ice Woman?”

Qiu Yi turned his head and saw Ice Woman’s face on his right shoulder.

Ice Woman ignored Qiu Yi, used her snow-white hands to hold An Xin Yan’s face, and examined it carefully.

“What’s wrong?”

Qiu Yi was a little puzzled.

“Beautiful…”

Ice Woman said this and retracted her hand, disappearing again.

“?”

Qiu Yi was stunned, a moment later, then laughed.

“Seriously?”

“Beautiful?”

“Do weirdnesses also have human aesthetics?”

Qiu Yi felt strange.

Although Ice Woman was humanoid, Qiu Yi had never regarded her as a human being, only as a monster.

A monster with a human form, and a monster that could talk.

“Aesthetics are only formed when one is in a social environment.”

“Ice Woman, was she once a human?”

“Or is there some kind of weird society?”

“Incredible…”

Qiu Yi felt that both possibilities were astonishing, even beyond imagination.

“Ice Woman, come out, I have some questions for you.”

“Come out.”

“…”

No matter how much Qiu Yi called, Ice Woman didn’t appear.

“Forget it.”

Qiu Yi leaned against the wall, half-closing his eyes while remaining vigilant of his surroundings.

About two hours passed before An Xin Yan showed any signs of movement.

An Xin Yan’s fingers twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes.

“Awake?”

Qiu Yi said softly.

An Xin Yan looked quietly at Qiu Yi’s face, her hands moved gently, and she hugged Qiu Yi.

“Was it a dream?”

“You guess.”

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat ambiguous.

Qiu Yi leaned closer to An Xin Yan’s face:

“It hasn’t been easy these past few days, has it?”

“I’m here, you don’t have to be afraid anymore.”

“Yeah.”

The atmosphere was a bit heated, and the two embraced and kissed, forgetting everything else.

Laier was drowsy, feeling a rustling sound around her.

She drowsily opened her eyes and saw the two of them hugging each other.

“Ahhhhh, what are you doing?”

“Why so suddenly!”

Laier screamed.

Qiu Yi glanced at her and said:

“Why don’t you go out first?”

“Me go out? Where would I go!”

Laier covered her eyes, dissatisfied.

An Xin Yan turned to look at her, very surprised.

Qiu Yi explained to her:

“This is the real Laier. The one you met before was Fake Laier, a weirdness born from her side effects.”
