2.09 Million Winds (2)

She had chosen the last cubicle with a window to cast h...When crossing realms, the five senses disappeared like sinking into water. Before I could feel fear, I lost consciousness. I couldn't sense how long time passed; it felt both instantaneous and incredibly long.

When he was yanked out of the dimensional portal, he was still standing on this precipice.

Just now I was reaching out to the edge of the cliff, and now I've been pulled back into the cliff. Behind me is still a cliff hundreds of meters high, and the river below is surging.

The mountains and rivers remained unchanged, but the palace was gone, as were the houses built on the hillside. There was only a sheer cliff, desolate and uninhabited.

In black, Quan Heng stood before me. He loosened his grip on my wrist and asked coldly, "Who kidnapped you"

"I'm a reanimator, I was—" I tried to explain, but the atmosphere felt off.

Quinn's cloak hid all expressions, but the aura of hostility surrounding him made me uneasy, and... the color of the sky was off.

Just now, the interdimensional gate was like a mirror, displaying the same scene but in another parallel world.

According to the shaman king, it was a parallel space where the river's watershed existed. It had been continuously moved and sealed by mages for two thousand years, creating a forgotten sacred city.

In the world, yet apart from the world.

The chance of accidentally stumbling into the forbidden area is almost zero, unless you are a familiar resident like a grave robber.

"In order to destroy the unknown scriptures hidden somewhere, the Emperor ordered Yin soldiers to relocate all animals from this area and then set fire to the mountain with karma fire." Quan Heng's tone was blunt and emotionless.

Set the world on fire!

I turned to look into the distance, the sky far away was shrouded in a patch of red clouds, and the wind blowing past my ears carried the smell of grass and wood smoke.

Signs of a world in upheaval.

"He can't do that... I'm fine now, can you please tell him quickly Let him stop, okay" I was getting a bit anxious.

All things have spirits, although he may have moved the animals, plants also have a spirit!

Moreover, I've seen fire helicopters flying over to check the situation. If this gets out of hand, it won't be as simple as just a forest fire!

“The moment I pulled you out, Qingluan had already flown off to report. But… Your Majesty was furious. Even knowing you were safe, he wouldn’t let the corpse refiners go. He’s devoted to eliminating evil, he won’t stop.”

Quinn hesitated for a moment, then turned to me silently: "My lady, I know this isn't your fault, but the Emperor... is so fond of you, it's not good."

"If the Heavenly Emperor were just an ordinary wandering immortal, it would be fine. But he is the deity who governs the reincarnation of the underworld; he has duties and taboos. To act so unlovingly and prioritize petty affections over the greater good is highly inappropriate... I hope you, dear Empress, can persuade him."

I understand what Quan Heng is saying, but how can I advise him

He raised his hand, the heaven and earth changed color, and with a clap of his hands, the yin and yang revolved.

How could I possibly have such divine power to advise him at this juncture I can't even touch his garments, for heaven's sake!

The crimson flames of retribution burn away sin, yet they also add to his karmic burden.

I can touch his face, his eyebrows, his nose, his lips; I can also press against his chest, gently caress his abdomen, waist and every inch of his skin, but...

But.

As soon as he turned around, I couldn't even catch the fluttering of his sleeves.

I am just an ordinary person.

A sacrificial offering, raised in isolation for sixteen years and prepared for sacrifice.

I've only been learning magic for the past six months or so. Even though I've experienced some things, my Taoist cultivation is shallow. I haven't diligently practiced, done many good deeds, or... had many children.

I haven't done any of them, and I can't do any of them.

He was born a god, I a lowly mortal. To receive his grace and affection is a blessing beyond measure, yet to stand by his side as an equal remains a dream unfulfilled.

The space beside me suddenly cracked, a black fissure like lightning tore open, and Mu Wanchen appeared beside me. Almost in an instant, Quan Heng's long sword on his back thrust towards him.

Mu Wanchen seized his blade, bending his fingers to recite a string of unintelligible incantations. Suddenly, the vines on the cliffside flew towards him, imbued with an eerie glow.

“….Are you a Great Shaman” Quan Heng rolled over to dodge, looking at the vines that resembled tree spirits and wood monsters fawning at Mu Wanchen’s feet. His tone was slightly surprised.

Mu Wanchen didn't speak. He reached out and lifted me up... he really lifted me up, my feet left the ground. My ripped clothes couldn't withstand his big hand at all.

With a ripping sound, my clothes tore even bigger. I got angry: "Let go! You're tearing my clothes! If you keep doing this, I won't help you find a wife!"

He was taken aback and asked, "Isn't this your enemy"

"No. He's one of us. He came to save me."

He raised his hand and dispersed the incantation. The vines that had just been swirling around him like mischievous sprites instantly lost their energy, lying back on the cliff face obediently, resuming their role as plants.

"You should have said something earlier! I thought you were captured by your enemies! With the formations over there destroyed, I didn't even have time to rush over. So I came here to save you first!" Mu Wanchen roared angrily at me.

My goodness... you started fighting the moment you appeared, was there any room for me to say anything

He put me down and hurried to turn into the space. I grabbed his arm and asked, "Where are you going"

"Go and reinforce the Dharma gate! What kind of trash dares to burn down the mountain!" he shouted.

What You jerk

Quán Héng's sword immediately thrust forward: "A mortal dares to insult the deity!"

They were about to fight again, so I quickly grabbed Mu Wanchen's belt: "Stop fighting! That's...my husband set fire to the mountain in order to find me. He found a way through the flames to get into the village of the zombies! You have to take me there!"

Mu Wanchen decisively grabbed me and jumped into the space. After entering, it was surprisingly by the riverbank!

I struggled to move upward in the water, lifting my head and looking at the sky. I realized that the sky wasn't simply tinted red; above it, there was a faint black void. The surrounding crimson clouds seemed to be drawn in like a whirlpool. This...it was simply a portent of disaster on the horizon.

The heat of the fire scorched my eyes, making them water. What on earth does Jiang Qiyun want to do

Quan Heng said he wanted to eradicate all evil, but did he really intend to burn the entire village of Corpse Refiners to ashes

Getting closer, I saw a gigantic translucent figure in the void. One hand gripped a colossal chain, the other held a long, white, translucent sword.

With a swing of his longsword, all the souls bound by chains were obliterated!

Heaven Soul, Earth Soul, and Life Soul, none were left behind.

This back figure... could it be Jiang Qiyun's dharma aspect!

I stared in horror as he stood, a black-clad figure with flowing robes, his back to the riverbank and facing the skyward inferno of crimson flames. He stood calmly on a massive stone by the shore.

He raised his left hand, and over ten chains shot out like silver light, binding the spirit's three souls. With a swing of his sword in his right hand, the three souls vanished like dust carried away by the wind.

"Rise, cloud!" I couldn't help but shout.

A fierce gale swirled upward, reaching straight into the heavens. With such an inferno raging, how could he possibly extinguish itts. Higher-level gu spirits, of course, can communicate with their masters... Are you, are you stupid!" Ah Liang couldn't help but look down on me.I raised my hand and touched the protruding "pearl" n...
