1567 bloodline

nto his lap.My forehead was pressed against his, feeling my eyelashes brush against his brow. I playfully winked at him, trying to tickle him with my lashes.This childish act made him raise an eyebrow...The strange scene of faint crimson and dark purple beneath my feet filled me with growing alarm.

If this barrier is a rift in space, my brother has gone to an unknown place. Although I can see him, he can't see me.

Just like last time, Yin Su Bai led me walking through the gaps between spaces. The pendant in Yu Gui's hand fell to the ground, its faint light able to pierce through the barrier but unable to touch it directly.

That chilling aura felt both near and far, constantly drifting over with wisps of laughter. Like a dangerous beast trapped in confinement, it lured its prey like moths to a flame.

I, the prey.

Even if I know the risks, I can't just leave my brother lost in the unknown. And his children... they are all my family.

Under my feet, there was an inexplicable blend of crimson and violet. After running for a while, I realized that everything around me was this color. My vision became blurry, and my sense of direction was completely lost.

Now I can't turn back, the door where Hu Qing was is nowhere to be seen.

Goosebumps rose in waves, and every step forward brought an involuntary shiver.

It's coming soon.

"Where are you I'm coming." I said into the void. "What's your purpose, coming at me My brother and his children are just ordinary people, don't lay a finger on them. If anything happens to them—"

Even if I fight to the death, I won't let you succeed.

I made up my mind silently, but I didn't say it out loud.

The weak have no right to negotiate.

"Humphph…" That snide chuckle echoed again in her mind.

The more I listened, the clearer it became. It was definitely a man's voice: "What are you afraid of... Just keep moving forward, this isn't even the boundary yet... Your brother charged straight in without looking back, where did you get all this hesitation"

"My brother ran in himself" I was a bit suspicious. I've been worried that my brother has been bewitched by demons.

"Or what You think he's an ordinary person Hmph... Mu Xia Qiao, you can travel between the Three Realms, how can you think he can't Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be"

I opened my mouth, not knowing how to retort.

But my brother isn't like me. He doesn't have the same experiences as I do.

"Humph..." The voice suddenly rang clearly in my ear. Just as I was about to turn my head to see who it was, my shoulder was shoved hard.

"Ah!!" I stumbled, suddenly stepping into empty air and everything spun around me in a dizzying whirl!

Pink, dark purple, gray mist, black flame… as if colors were jumbled together, a silver-gray silhouette suddenly appeared in my eyes.

That face was handsome and refined, with narrow eyes that held a hint of ruthlessness. Its gaze resembled silent magma, glowing with a crimson hue.

The hostility came on like a razor blade, the fear of being ripped apart startled me into closing my eyes.

When I was utterly helpless, a powerful force suddenly yanked me.

----- Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

With a thud, I tumbled down from somewhere unknown and landed on a small mound of earth.

The little earthen mound had dust, soil, and wilted leaves on it, which stained me.

I looked up at my hands, my cheeks, and my neck... they were all covered in tiny cuts, looking like abrasions but oozing little drops of blood.

This feeling… My body seems to remember this feeling.

My fingers trembled slightly, and I struggled to calm my racing heart—this feeling of being torn apart by a thousand blades, I had experienced it before, long ago, when I fell from the colossal sealing array in Huangdao Village…

"Ouch…" a low groan pulled me back to my senses.

I turned back and in the mass of fallen leaves, a small bald head suddenly rose up.

"Hey... you!" Isn't this Huaisong's disciple!

Xiaoguan looked at me, and nudged the person beside him: "Master, Master, Sister Mu is here. We didn't take a wrong turn."

Huiqing monk stood up and slapped Xiao Guangtou on the head with a grin: "Even eating vegetarian food, you eat like a pig!"

"You...you followed me" I was stunned.

"What are you going to do then! Are you running off by yourself" Hu Qing was a bit angry: "What can one woman do! Even if you know their target is you, you shouldn't just walk right into their trap!"

I shook my head, not knowing how to explain this feeling.

I don't see demons as some terrifying enemy, I just want to save my brother.

Demons might be terrifying, but after interacting with Chong Mo and Yin Su Bai, I realized they weren't bloodthirsty creatures who took pleasure in evil.

"Just now, was it you who pulled me" I suspiciously asked Hu Qing.

Hu Qing was stunned: "How is that possible We chased after you relentlessly, and when we saw you suddenly disappear before our eyes, I suspected you had touched the forbidden arts. I grabbed this little piglet and jumped down after you, how could I have possibly reached you"

Who just pulled me

I could clearly feel myself being wounded by the negativity, but a sudden force pulled me down.

"Are you hurt" I asked hastily.

Huis Qing and Xiao Guangtou's shiny heads had a few scratches, but their bodies were unharmed. They were doing much better than me.

"Wow... Sister Mu, what have you done..." Little Guangtou took out a bag of something from under his cassock and handed it over: "Sister Mu, you handle this yourself. Men and women shouldn't give or receive each other things... Amitabha~~"

This little guy, following Huiching, is really learning quite well.

I took the thing he handed me and looked at it. It turned out to be a small pack of antiseptic wipes.

Xiaoguang took out a small mirror and held it up to me, so I could wipe the wounds on my face and neck.

Well, it's just a superficial wound. It will stop bleeding soon, and I estimate it will be completely healed in two days without leaving a scar.

"Yun Fan fell here too" Huisqing was more concerned about his good friend, shook his cassock and started looking around.

However, the terrain here was soft, with plants reaching half a person's height. Their leaves were dry and brittle, yet they displayed a strange dark purple and pale red hue, much like the current popular lipstick shade.

But here wasn't some floral forest, everywhere emanating a sinister and eerie vibe.

"I saw my brother's back just before the space flipped upside down... I don't know if it was an illusion." I looked around.

The male voice that I had clearly heard in my ear just now has disappeared.

Have you lured me here to achieve your goal

"Let's go look around. If my brother also fell here, he should be nearby." I suggested.

Hu Qing monk shook his head and muttered: “Here, the mountains in the distance are shrouded in mist, and up close there are all sorts of strange flowers and grasses. It’s probably not a good place. If we spread out to search, what if someone gets hurt in a remote area and their companions can't find them”

I nodded. It was certainly too thick here, like a swamp of flowers, trees, and undergrowth.

"Let Yun Fan discover that we're better." Hu Qing said.

"Set fire" Little Head suddenly understood.

Hu Qing slapped the young monk on the head: "Do you want to roast yourself to death There are so many dry flowers and plants here, if you light a fire, will you ask the Dragon King to put it out"

But Xiao Guangtou's idea is in the right direction. We just need to find a high point and create something that flashes, as long as my brother can see it!

Huiqing monk let out a smug smile, lifted his cassock, and pulled out a close-fitting chest bag from behind his back: "To catch up with you, I didn't bring the high-power radio lamp, but there are plenty of signal flares here."

...Signal, batback, heads were flying everywhere. After the heads were dealt with, the old monk shut himself away and wouldn't see guests. He's been shut in for so long that no pilgrims have come. I wonder what he'...
