The Coming Heroine: The Only Princess

Chapter 204 Being Controlled
Shikong clenched his teeth and made up his mind. He lifted the Magical Dragon Sword and cut it against Zhang Yunyan’s right wrist.

At this horrible moment, Shikong closed his eyes painfully, and didn’t dare to see the hand of his benefactor being cut down. He could not bear to see the horror of blood flowing.

As the Magical Dragon Sword fell, they heard a huge cracking. The sound was very loud, echoing in the mysterious Cave of Fate. The atmosphere of horror was more intense with endless fear and sorrow.

At this moment, Shikong was extremely painful. His body and mind were tightening, and his eyes were closed as he didn’t dare to see. With the sound, Yun Feiyan’s right hand must be cut off. He was very painful, and his heart was deeply stinging. It seemed that he was bleeding…

At the same moment, he frowned and slightly opened his eyes. Then he shouted in surprise and opened his eyes widely.

It turned out that the Magical Dragon Sword didn’t hurt Zhang Yunyan’s right hand and had been knocked away by the jade she was holding.

At the moment of the impact, sparks burst out and went out in an instant.

Zhang Yunyan had been unconscious, not knowing what terrible things had happened in this moment, and she was unaware. Her expression had calmed down and she was sleeping. It seemed that she had no pain, as if nothing had happened.

Although Shikong didn’t see the impact just now, he had a strange feeling that in the moment when the Magical Dragon Sword approached Zhang Yunyan’s wrist, it seemed to stop, and then it collided with the evil stone and produced countless sparks.

It seemed that the moment when the Magical Dragon Sword stopped, it was not blocked by the jade. Because at the moment before the impact of the two, it seemed that the sword had stopped by itself, or the hex released by the jade had prevented the sword.

Shikong didn’t know the reason. He looked at the Magical Dragon Sword and the jade. He was shocked.

In addition, the jade knocked the Magical Dragon Sword away. It was not done by Zhang Yunyan who was unconscious.

Needless to say, the evil stone was still spiritual. It was clear to the surroundings and was completely in control. The act of Shikong didn’t escape its perception. The evil stone responded quickly to the attacking Magical Dragon Sword, and it could not let its territory be attacked.

It was terrible. It was hard to detect the thoughts of the evil stone. It would be even harder to know its intrigue, so it was impossible to guard against it or resist it.

In fact, the feeling of Shikong was correct. The moment when the Magical Dragon Sword approached Zhang Yunyan’s right hand, it stopped. It couldn’t hurt its own owner. Even though the sword holder had made a lot of effort, it refused to perform.

Fortunately, the jade didn’t use the hex to attack Shikong. It was extremely lucky that he could escape the terrible disaster.

Looking at the hand holding the jade, Shikong was both surprised and anxious. Although this hand was part of Yun Feiyan, it was now controlled by the evil stone. It would be impossible to cut off her wrist.

In suspicion, he was very painful. He sighed. Even the way of cutting off a hand to save her life was failed, was there any way to help his benefactor?

Seeing the faint and sleeping Yun Feiyan, Shikong was unable to save the life of his benefactor and he shed tears in pain. He saw that Yun Feiyan’s life was in jeopardy and she was about to die. He could no longer control his emotions and burst into tears.

Outside the cave, there was an anxious inquiry. It was Turtle Elf, “Shikong, what’s wrong with you? How about Yun Feiyan? Shikong, what happened to her…”

Turtle Elf panicked. It had a feeling that Zhang Yunyan’s situation was not good. There must be something terrible, otherwise Shikong would not cry so hard.

It was powerless to help and save the life of Yun Feiyan, and was unable to comfort the painful Shikong, and couldn’t help the poor monk to escape from the danger. It had been puzzled and flustered in sorrow and pain.

In the Cave of Fate, it was still surrounded by the atmosphere of terror. In the silence full of insidious tricks and endless injuries, the helpless soul could no longer control itself, and was unable to fight the raging culprit.

Outside the cave, it was filled with terrible evil air, and there was a desperate cry. The sound of crying was painful, and it was being shackled and melted by the horrible evil air.

It seemed that Shikong didn’t hear the anxious inquiry of Turtle Elf, and he was not in the mood to respond to it. He cried while looking at Yun Feiyan. His benefactor was motionless and calm as if she was asleep.

He was deeply sad and feared. He didn’t know Yun Feiyan’s situation after being tortured, and whether she was going to die. He could only watch her and wait for the terrible result to come.

Shikong wiped his tears. He observed carefully. His heart, filled with fear and anxiety, had already come up in his mouth.

Zhang Yunyan’s breathing was steady. Her pulse was slow and powerful, and she didn’t groan in pain anymore.

Shikong was not sure that the state of Yun Feiyan was good or bad. It seemed that she had no pain. It was likely that because of the deep coma, she couldn’t feel the ravages of the hex, thus she had no response.

Shikong was more worried about something else. The expression of Yun Feiyan seemed to be calm, and her pulse was beating weakly. He didn’t know if the body and mind of his benefactor had been controlled by the evil stone.

Yun Feiyan was the companion that had come through thick and thin with him. Her safety was the most important. Nothing was more important than this.

He was very worried and afraid. Even if his benefactor survived, she might completely change. Once she was controlled by the hex, she would become a tool of the evil stone, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

If his benefactor was in that position, it would be terrible and pathetic. If she still had her own independent consciousness, she would not be willing to live in the face of the consequences of being controlled by the evil stone.

Shikong didn’t want to give up. He was still observing and thinking. His benefactor could still breathe, so he must try to help her get rid of the control of the evil stone. He thought it over, and there was still no feasible way. He felt deeply anxious and sighed.

He also thought of cutting off her wrist to get rid of it. This was the only way. Although it was too cruel and not feasible, it was the only idea that was worth a try. He couldn’t do nothing and just wait like this. Seeing the evil stone that was held tightly by his benefactor, he thought about what to do.

Shikong had no ability to confront the evil stone, and he could only attack secretly. He thought about it and decided to hack from the back of the clasped hand. Because with the hand blocking him, the evil stone couldn’t find him.

Shikong didn’t hesitate. He chose a direction and got down, and quietly lifted the Magical Dragon Sword, trying to attack and cutting the wrist.

Suddenly, Zhang Yunyan’s clenched right hand turned over and the red light flashed directly to Shikong. With a cracking, he was beaten hard. He screamed and rolled, falling down on the ground a foot away.

It was too horrible. The act of Shikong infuriated the evil stone, and it fiercely beat him.

Shikong was groaning in pain. He was not seriously injured on the outside, but the internal pain was unbearable. He ate some medicine in pain and then lay quietly for a while before the pain was relieved.

It seemed that this evil thing was still dealing with Zhang Yunyan with full power, so the attacking hex was not strong, and Shikong wasn’t hurt badly. Otherwise, with such a short distance, he would either be killed by the heavy blow or be seriously injured.

Fortunately, the shock caused by the hex was not very big, and perhaps it would not alarm the devils and bring disaster.

Shikong sat down against the wall of the cave. He looked at the motionless Zhang Yunyan and the evil stone in the dark, feeling anxious and fearful.

He wanted to attack the evil stone secretly to save his benefactor. He didn’t expect to be attacked by the hex. There was no way to help Yun Feiyan get rid of the control of the evil stone and he was unable to save the life of his benefactor.

In pain, he looked at her uneasily, praying that Yun Feiyan could survive in this disaster and break away from the control of the evil stone and get back to the original state.

Looking at the horrible jade, Shikong wanted to get rid of it, but he didn’t dare to touch it. The evil stone’s perception was too strong, and its means was very fierce. He had no ability to defend against the attack, and he was even more afraid of infuriating the evil stone and then brought greater disaster to his benefactor.

Looking at the unconscious Zhang Yunyan, Shikong was anxious and shed tears of pain. Facing the horrible evil stone, he was angry and helpless. He could only wait for the unknown result.

Shikong was worried. He couldn’t feel relieved about the life and death of his benefactor. Regardless of the danger of being attacked, he endured the pain and came to Zhang Yunyan.

He knelt down and wanted to see Yun Feiyan’s situation after being tortured.

It was too dark in the cave, and although he couldn’t see the face of his benefactor clearly, he was still looking carefully.

After looking for a while, Shikong’s eyes were bright. He stared at the terrible jade and looked suspicious, not knowing whether it was a curse or a blessing. He prayed silently in fear, hoping that his benefactor could survive the terrible disaster.

In the blurred image, the jade was green and its size and shape had not changed. However, it did change, and the shiny colored “stars” inside were gone, which was absolutely surprising.

The jade had no colorful light and became dark. In the dim Cave of Fate, its translucent state couldn’t be seen clearly unless looking at it in no distance.

Why did this jade change so much? Where were the countless colorful “stars”? Did they lose their glory?

It was likely that it was not so simple. Those colored lights might be the soul of the jade and the origin of the hex. They would not disappear on their own. The countless “stars” were likely to enter Yun Feiyan’s body with the surging current of heat and stayed.

This kind of explanation was not unreasonable, but it was difficult to agree with it. It was not surprising to say that some of them remained in her body. However, those colored “stars” couldn’t be so consistent and stay there together with no one going out. This jade was their home after all.

What if the colored “stars” had abandoned their home and changed to a new place? How to explain it?

Perhaps the colorful shiny “stars” were indeed magical and spiritual. They were always being controlled by magic. Or it might be the choice of their spirits and they would intentionally stay in a better environment.

What kind of feelings did Yun Feiyan have when the “stars” stayed in her body? Was she safe?

Shikong didn’t know what the consequences would be, and there was no way for him to know. He only prayed silently for his benefactor and observed and waited. He had a bad feeling that the evil stone had already controlled Yun Feiyan, and it would not show any mercy. It was not a good sign that the “colorful stars” stayed in her body.

Seeing that the jade was dark and seemed to have lost its spirituality, Shikong was somewhat shocked and suspicious. Did this change indicate that the hex had stopped and was no longer torturing Yun Feiyan? Was the hex already in control of his benefactor and not in need of demonstrating its power?

Since the countless “colorful stars” were magical and spiritual, they were not just changing the place. They were occupying and controlling, and they were the tool used by the evil stone to control Yun Feiyan.

This kind of suspicion was not a whimsy. It was a possible reality which was worrying.

It was terrible. Did the evil stone really control Zhang Yunyan with countless “colorful stars”?
