Chapter 51: Phoenix Sovereign Inheritance [3]
Looking at the skeleton leaning on the tree, Ming Yuelin frowned slightly and took the bow from her space ring.
She took cautious steps and walked closer to it, as she didn't know if this was some kind of trap or not.
Gently crouching near the skeleton, she saw a black serpent symbol on the robe and mumbled "So he is from the Blak Serpent Sect?"
"And the robes are so tattered and old. Maybe this is someone who came to the Inheritance ground 100 years ago?"
-.- "So we really die if we die here. I have to be careful from now on." As she muttered to herself, she saw a shiny object in the skeleton's fingers.
"Hm? His storage ring? I shouldn't miss out on the loot."
As she reached out and tried to remove the ring from the finger *sleesh* something cleaving through the air caught her ear, and she quickly jumped from her position.
*thud* The place she was just now hit with numerous arrows and her eyes narrowed. "There are traps in this forest too?"
*swish* In the next instant, the area where she stood disappeared and there was a huge pit beneath her feet.
"Kyaaaahh!" Screaming in fear, she quickly used her movement technique to jump from there and land on safe ground.
*thriek* As she stepped on the ground, suddenly she felt the earth shaking a little.
Sighing in frustration, she looked around "Now what?"
"From left?" As she turned her head, she saw a huge boulder rushing towards her at insane speed.
"Waahhh!" As it inched closer to her, she ran to the right, avoiding its path, and sighed in relief.
*shreik* But the boulder suddenly stopped and turned to Ming Yuelin.
"EH? What the hell? It has consciousness."
*treik* The boulder began to roll towards Ming Yuelin and her heart jumped out of her chest in fear.
"Damnit!!" She used Phoenix dance steps, and jumped onto a nearby tree branch, avoiding its path again.
She took the bow in her hand and pulled the string.
An arrow materialized in between her fingers and as she let go of the arrow, it hurled towards the boulder.
*sleech* *boom* The arrow hit the boulder and it blasted creating large cracks in the ground.
However, the boulder stood with no scratches and Ming Yuelin was dumbfounded "Are you for real now?"
The boulder turned to Ming Yuelin who was on the tree branch and jumped from its place crushing into the tree.
"Ahhhh!!" Ming Yuelin jumped from the tree to the nearby tree and the boulder relentlessly pursued her smashing every tree in its path.
Hm? Ming Yuelin who was jumping from one tree to another glanced at a tomb in the distance and mumbled "So it is one of those places. where you can get artifacts."
"If I want the Sovereign Inheritance I shouldn't focus on them.. or I will waste my time and this damn boulder."
"This boulder is really making me jump from tree to tree like a monkey. Can you please stop this?" She screamed looking at the boulder.
*threik* The boulder suddenly stopped and Ming Yuelin blinked her eyes in surprise "It really stopped?"
*woosh* However, the boulder doubled in size and again began to move.
Ming Yuelin's jaw dropped looking at this "╥﹏╥ This is unfair."
...
Zhang Yuan took another sip of the tea and chuckled in his mind looking at the atrocities of his disciple inside the Inheritance ground.
Feng Xinyi marveled at the elegant man in front of her as he continued drinking his tea.
"Master Yuan, do you belong to any Sect?"
"No." Zhang Yuan gently shook his head.
"Then would you mind joining our Yu Hong Holy Land?"
...
Ming Yuelin took deep breaths exhausted after the long run to escape from the boulder and sat on the tree branch as she looked at the surroundings.
Now, the forest is filled with some white mist hindering her vision.
Since the boulder was not following her anymore, she got down from the tree and took the wooden water bottle from her space ring.
Opening the cap, she quickly gulped down the water to replenish her energy.
"I think I need to walk through this Misty forest to reach the next area and I don't know how much time has passed since I entered here."
As she continued her walk, she suddenly heard a noise amidst the mist and hastily turned her head "Where?"
*tap* She heard the faint noise of someone walking towards her and clearing the mist a tall man came out, wearing red regal robes.
Looking at the face of the man, Ming Yuelin's body shuddered in fear and the bow slipped through her fingers and fell down. *thud*
Her eyes trembled and she panicked, her heartbeat raising, fear consuming my mind.
A low mutter escaped her lips "Fa... ther?"
Ming Yuelin took two steps back, her heart pounding in dread "W-What are you doing here?"
He is her father from her previous life, Emperor of Shen Dynasty, Shen Yumo, father of Shen Yinshi.
Shen Yumo walked in front of Ming Yuelin and extended his hand as Ming Yuelin shrunk back in panic.
Reaching out, Shen Yumo clutched Ming Yuelin's neck, his eyes raging deep with anger "Do you know what happened to me after you killed yourself?"
"YINSHI?!!!!"
"Urgh!" Ming Yinshi winched in pain as she struggled to break free from his grip.
"F-Father?!" She tried to kick him with her legs, but her feeble kicks were doing nothing to his sturdy body.
"DON'T CALL ME FATHER! THAT EMPEROR INVADED US AND DESTROYED MY DYNASTY TO SHREADS!"
"EVERYONE ONE OF US HAS BEEN KILLED!! ALL BECAUSE OF YOU YINSHI! ALL BECAUSE OF YOU! NOW I WILL KILL YOU TOO!!"
Shen Yumo raged in anger and clutched Ming Yuelin's neck tightly intending to break her neck.
"Urghhhhh!" Ming Yuelin's eyes shrank in pain as she felt her Father's fingers gripping her neck choking her to death.
She raised her hand and gave a strong punch to his face, however, Shen Yumo stood unfazed like a mountain.
Looking into the ferocious eyes of Shen Yumo, Ming Yuelin gritted her teeth "You damn bastard! Which father would sell his daughter as a cauldron?"
A smirk appeared on her lips "Heh, you died? I am more than happy... Urgh! But I am alive and I will keep on living."
*cough* Feeling her neck getting crushed, Ming Yuelin's body shrieked and blood dribbled from her lips "Argh!! In this life, I have good parents, and more than that, I have a great Master."
"So... fuck off!" As she yelled, red flames burst out from her body and swirled around Shen Yumo.
*swish* The red flames burned Shen Yumo's body and he screamed in pain as the flames incinerated him to his flesh and bones.
"ARGHHHHHH!"
As his grip loosened, Ming Yuelin pulled back herself from his grip and took in deep breaths to supply oxygen to her lungs.
"H-He almost crushed my throat."
*thud* Losing the strength in her body, she kneeled to the ground and looked at Shen Yumo's body burning in her flames.
"ARGHHHH! YINSHI!!" The flames consumed his whole being turning him into cinders.
"You did well, Lin'er..."
Hearing a charming voice, Ming Yuelin's eyes widened in surprise "Master?"
