Magpie Festival, Missing Little Fox

A girl boasts beautiful appearance, delicate hands, and graceful figure; her charm shares a scenic beauty with the autumn river;

In a rainy and lonely night, a man drank wine and not sober; he looked at the crescent moon in the distance and recalled the days when they first met each other.

“It’s not that easy to leave.”

Chidi’s devil hole opened, and magma burst out of the earth’s crust. The continuous magma was transforming. When the magma weaved into a giant net, Chidi lifted it up and sealed up the dry well. The suspending fire net charged on the way, and the ancient well crackled and got blazed. Xu Linghe’s spiritual fingers swept and set a defensive cover for the woman. However, the flames spread and burned her clothes. In the black iron pool, the woman was struggling. Xu Linghe recited the incantation, and a Sacred Beast flew out of his body. Then, the giant dragon blew out clouds of spray to constrain the flames, and the black iron pool was filled with black smoke after the rain wash. Not until the woman was out of danger did Xu Linghe jumped on the dragon’s back. Along the way, his Flowing Light Divine Sword penetrated the sea of fire and charged at Chidi with unstoppable Sword Qi, and absorbed the magma. When the sword blade turned red, Spirit Wings Beast flew out from the sword edge. Then, the Spirit Wings Beast that was released out of the sword blade was transformed into numerous Sword Qi and ran straight to Chidi, followed closely by roaring Flowing Light. Rays of spirit light dispersed, and the ancient well was being destroyed by the Sword Qi. The giant dragon held its head erect and carried Xu Linghe while Chidi met the battle head-on. Being the Devil God, Chidi gestured to call the army from Hell, which was made up of corpses from Hell. A woman in red took the lead and pressed hard to the black iron pool. Seeing the things might go worse, Xu Linghe followed, wondering whether the woman in red knew the little woman in the trap. Xu Linghe wielded his Flowing Light Sword. The woman in red waved her fingers, and then wandering dead souls flooded to Jiang Wuyou. To block the woman’s attack, a Spirit Power rose behind Xu Linghe. However, Chidi chopped at Xu Linghe with a palm. Seeing the master being assaulted, the giant dragon rolled up huge stones and flung them to Chidi, its roaring voice shaking the ancient well. And collapsed stone wall rolled to the black iron pool. Chidi suspended in the midair, his Spirit Power soaring. Xu Linghe held the Flowing Light Divine Sword in his hand, his Spirit Power surging around the sword edge. When the Sword Qi dashed into the night sky, Xu Linghe charged at Chidi at a speed of thunderbolt, and his Spirit Power spread and pounced on the stone wall. With a rumble, the whole ancient well bored down at the black iron pool. At that moment, the woman in the black iron pool was on the verge of death. Since the woman in red was about to penetrate the defensive cover, Jiang Wuyou had to dodge again and again, totally incapable of confronting such power. Even worse, Xu Linghe was besieged by the Hell’s army. So he felt that he could not survive today, and then sorrow welled up in his heart for both the woman in the black iron pool and Xiao Douya. Spirit Wings Beast tried to tear off Chidi, but was shattered into pieces. Those dead spirits coming from Hell changed into an Evil Qi and swept on the way. The air was crammed with those corpses’ Evil Qi. The Flowing Light Sword took on powerful momentum, but when it was contaminated by the corpses, a layer of dirty Qi poured out from the sword hilt. Corpses Qi enwrapped the Spiritual Qi. Chidi knew the chance came, so he blasted out a palm at Xu Linghe, and then, Xu Linghe felt a darkness in front and was thrown to the corpses. Next second, a dark flock of corpses sprang at him. And the giant dragon tried to rushed in to roll up Xu Linghe with its dragon tail, but was forced to retreat tens of meters by Chidi’s palm. The dragon was hit and tumbled. Looking at its badly mutilated master, the giant dragon shed dragon’s tears unbelievably.

“Linghe.”

Wuyou’s cry was so desperate and helpless, because she could do nothing but just witness her husband being engulfed by the Men of Sacrifice. A flock of corpses went at her lover, but Wuyou was unable to do anything. She even did not realize that the black iron thorns stuck in her fingers. All the hatred was accumulating. Then, her black hair lay down, and the scars on her face began falling off. When her skin that had been eroded by the naga’s poison was shedding, Xiao Ba’s eyes were smoldered with jealousy. How fortunate the woman was! Her appearance was more amazing than before, crystal clear skin, long dense eyelashes, and noble and straight nose. Her pale lips did not dim her beauty. Her fine hair trailed over her elegant neck, which flattered her smooth and crystal clear skin. What amazed Xiao Ba most was her four-inch waist which revealed more of her breasts’ curves. In the flowing light, her purple hair was gleamed with enchanting charm. Wuyou threw a cold glance, which struck Xiao Ba with fear and terror. Looking at her husband, Wuyou broke out of the black iron pool and raised up with the momentum of crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood. Chidi had never seen a woman with such Spirit Power before. The Spirit Power in her hands seemed to be able to reverse the universe. And the corpses were so vulnerable that they could not withstand a single blow. Everywhere her Spirit Power swept, the Original Spirits were reduced to ashes.

The woman suspended in the air, bathed in the spirit light. When Spirit Power spread out gradually, the crammed corpses fell down like dust. Wuyou lifted up the man and hugged him tightly. Her husband in her arms was tattered and torn badly by the corpses. Enwrapped in the spirit light, the man’s injuries were being recovered. Then, Wuyou injected their memory into the man’s mind. At that moment, Wuyou just wanted the man to remember her. They had gone through countless parting and death. When they met again, he was her husband and she was his wife for good. Xu Linghe opened his eyes slowly, and his heart melted at the sight of his woman. In the dark night, the woman wore purple hair, which spread out like iris in the empty valley. Her face tilted slightly, filled with tears. She could feel the warmth beneath her fingers. The man was still in a trance. Then, the little hand held the big hand. Xu Linghe pulled the woman into his arms with all of his strength. The woman choked with sobs. This was the reunion in real sense since they had been parted for three years. Wuyou embraced the man tightly. The missing bitterness that had tortured her for three years was eased at that moment. Her tears dampened the man’s clothes. Xu Linghe covered her lips with a wet kiss.

“What a deep love between you two!”

The sound reverberated in the open. Chidi became puzzled on the clouds, wondering why Ling Ji of the Teal Hill got so powerful, since the power she had used just now was that of the Immense Sea. Did she own the Pangu Divine Being Heavenly Book? But Chidi denied the thought immediately, because he believed that Changxi would not give the unique book to others. Chidi condensed his Spirit Power secretly and swept at the woman again. Wuyou flew upward, since she hated Chidi to the bone. So she decided to be done with Chidi today. The death of her father, the murder of Uncle Jiefei and the extermination of the Teal Hill were all committed by Chidi. Wuyou charged at him head-on, her overflowing Spirit Power shooting to the sky to illuminate the Immense Sea. Wuyou stood on the sea of clouds and gave off her Spirit Power, which poured out of her body continuously. Chidi murmured the Soul-peeling incantation, hoping to lead the woman into the space. Xu Linghe was worried about the little woman, because he had suffered a lot there and knew Chidi’s strength. But he did not know that the woman in front was not the one who used to be trampled upon at will. Now, she possessed the Spirit Power that was able to reverse the universe. Chidi used blood as a guide and began conjuring and setting formation. Meanwhile, the woman recited incantations as well. In the flowing light, a piece of golden armor enwrapped the woman, whose golden light dazzled Chidi harshly. Was it the Pangu’s Holy Garment in the legend? Then, the burning Holy Garment condensed the Spiritual Qi of all the living creatures. When it turned into Heavenly-light meteors in the sky, Wuyou chopped at Chidi at a thunderbolt speed. The Heavenly-light meteors were galloping in the night sky, and wherever they went, everything was reduced to dust. Panic took on Chidi’s eyes. When his body was raised up, Chidi had no resistance at all. The Spirit Power came with great momentum and went with peace. The woman seized her enemy tightly. For her, all the hardship would come to an end. Xu Linghe looked at the woman with bitterness in his heart. Every time the woman underwent development, Xu Linghe would feel heartbroken. Her shoulders bore the fate of her people, and her slim figure owned firmness and persistency. She could fight against the fate in the adverse conditions… “How can I not love her?”

Wuyou condensed her Spirit Power, and Chidi was about to be partitioned just like a fish on the chopping block. In the spirit light, her hair dispersed. Each hair gathered the Spirit Power, waiting for the Master’s call, and perhaps next second, it would penetrate Chidi’s body. In the flowing light, what Wuyou had was merely hatred. Her hair, like sharp pricks, stabbed into Chidi’s body. Wuyou was about to exhaust her strength to attack Chidi when a child’s cry crossed the night sky. It was her child. Yu Xuanji stood on the clouds while Xiao Douya was struggling ceaselessly. What a poor child! His little heart had to endure the damage from adults, who used him as chops again and again and forced his relatives to submit. Xiao Douya hated these adults, his eyes glistening with unbending expressions. Wuyou knew the woman, the Goddess of Baize. The shift from unfavorable to favorable thrilled Chidi with joy, since his new wife could turn the table so easily. “She deserves to be my wife.”

“Let my husband go. Otherwise… this child.”

Yu Xuanji shot a glance at Chidi. Since she had managed to find a backer, how could she allow the other to make trouble there? But to her surprise, the child could save Chidi. At that moment, Wuyou had forgotten to take revenge, and all in her eyes was only Xiao Douya. The woman from Baize was rather ruthless and brutal, so Wuyou thought she’d better act cautiously. Xu Linghe had been badly injured, but hearing Xiao Douya’s crying, he flew to the sea of clouds regardless of the pains on him. No one could expect that one family would reunite in such an occasion. Xiao Douya was throttled, his face full of tears. Xu Linghe had an itch to replace Xiao Douya. As for the persons who abducted Xiao Douya, Xu Linghe swore that he would make their lives worse than death. Xu Linghe clenched his hand so hard that they were bleeding. As a parent, the child was in front of him, but he could do nothing to save him. How helpless Xu Linghe would be.

“Uncle, I am not scared.”

Xiao Douya looked at Xu Linghe restively, which made Xu Linghe’s heart ache more. The ache was only experienced when one had a child. Wuyou withdrew her Spirit Power, and her purple hair restored its softness. Chidi left sluggishly, while Xiao Douya ran to Xu Linghe at a brisk pace. When Xiao Douya threw himself into Xu Linghe’s arms, Xu Linghe’s heart softened considerably. It turned out that his child was always with him. Xu Linghe held up his son and gave him a good kiss. Xiao Douya’s tender voice tickled Xu Linghe’s heart.

Chidi stared at Jiang Wuyou in the distance, not reconciled but had to. The woman’s Spirit Power was so limitless and formidable that it frightened Chidi. In Chidi’s opinion, few persons in the three realms could compare with him, even the Kunlun’s Sect Master had been defeated. But the woman could beat Chidi down with a movement. Such Spirit Power could only come from Pangu Divine Being Heavenly Book. Unexpectedly, the unique book that everyone was eager to get was obtained by the woman. It did embarrass Chidi. Although he had passed tribulation and become the Devil God painstakingly, the woman would defeat him with a palm in the end. Did he have to give up the territory gained by inches to Jiang Wuyou? Chidi’s eyes darkened and he thought, “Since Pangu Heavenly Book is in your hands, I will leave you without a day of peace.” But Jiang Wuyou did not realize that the Spirit Power in her body came from the Heavenly Book, and that Pangu Divine Being Heavenly Book was what everyone was desperate to get, but injected into Wuyou’s body by Changxi. Was it a blessing or a curse? Xu Linghe held their child in the arms and went back. Looking at the two men beside her, Wuyou thought she was dreaming, so she squeezed the back of her hand to feel the reality. Happiness came too suddenly.

“What a silly woman!”

Xu Linghe clasped the little woman in his arms. Xiao Douya stared at them in a huff, because he thought the woman with purple hair was not so reserved as his mother. If his mother had been there, Xiao Douya believed that his mother would not have been so light-headed. All in all, Xiao Douya took the side of his mother. Although the woman was not as beautiful as the woman in front, Xiao Douya loved his mother more. Wuyou cuddled her husband to challenge Xiao Douya’s authority. The corner of her eyes raised, seemingly showing that, “Boy, this is my place.”
