Chapter 65:

End the Deadlock, Water Master Battles Demon Xuan

MING YI’S VOICE CAME from behind. “What are you grumbling about all alone?”

Shi Qingxuan’s body stiffened. “I…I…I…”

Xie Lian wanted to help him respond, but Shi Qingxuan’s tongue was refusing his control. It couldn’t be helped; his most trusted, beloved friend had turned out to be the one he feared the most, hiding right beside him all this time. Now that there was no one around to help, there was no telling what he planned to do. Who wouldn’t be scared?

Suddenly, Ming Yi’s fingers dug in. Pain flared in Shi Qingxuan’s shoulder as he was pushed to the ground.

At the same time, a ghastly pale white hand lunged from the creek and groped the empty space that Shi Qingxuan’s neck had occupied just moments before.

A water ghost!

The hand’s attack missed thanks to Ming Yi’s timely push, and Ming Yi parried with a palm blast. Screams came from beneath the water—whatever creature lurked beneath was probably obliterated by that strike. Shi Qingxuan still lay sprawled on the ground where he’d been shoved, and Ming Yi pulled him up.

“What were you thinking, using some random water in the Black Water Demon Lair to wash your face?!”

“...”

Shi Qingxuan had just washed his face with the water of a creek that was contaminated with the putrefying corpses of water ghosts. He should have felt disgusted, but he had no mind right now to notice such details. His face and hair were still dripping wet. He was as drenched as a drowned dog and looked equally as lost and forlorn. Mind completely blank, he let “Ming Yi” pull him up and followed along behind him.

Truthfully, everything about “Ming-xiong” had always smelled a bit fishy if he thought about it.

He was the Earth Master, so he drew every teleportation array waypoint along the journey. The technique should’ve been his specialty, but he ran into problems at every juncture. The four of them were inexplicably sent from Puqi Shrine to the town of Fu Gu. And then, when it came time to transport the Wind and Water Masters from Black Water Island, there was another hiccup.

Was it because the transportation chamber was in disrepair? Was it something else causing ghostly mischief? Was the mastermind omnipotent?

Why overthink the issue? The simplest answer was the most likely—Ming Yi had been meddling all along!

When the Wind Master was taken away by the “Reverend of Empty Words,” it was “Ming Yi” who had allowed it by losing sight of him; he’d also been the one to discover the Wind Master after he had been robbed of his powers. He had always stayed by Shi Qingxuan’s side and knew his fears and tendencies like the back of his hand, and he was certainly close enough to the Wind Master to know his verbal password. Wielding his command of the “Reverend of Empty Words,” he was also the one who coerced Shi Qingxuan into opening the doors to the protection array at the Terrace of Cascading Wine.
