God of Slaughter
chapter-374

CaiYi’s eyes were flooded with hatred, viciously staring at ShiYan. She was resentful that she couldn’t kill him right away to vent her flame of anger. Unfortunately, she knew that killing ShiYan at the bottom of the lake was a difficult mission and nearly impossible to do, especially now that her host soul was under his control. As long as ShiYan’s mind could be triggered, he could use the soul barrier which had been planted in CaiYi’s host soul to obliterate her host soul immediately.

Inside the Dark Shield, CaiYi gritted her teeth while her heart was overwhelmed with hatred and shame. She didn’t say a word, took out a set of fluttering ribbon clothes from her Storage Ring and put them on, covering her snow-white body.

ShiYan’s look was evil, gazing at her as she put her clothes on, not having the consideration to turn away.

CaiYi was extremely embarrassed and full of resentment, but she knew she couldn’t do anything to him.

After she had dressed, ShiYan suddenly smiled and said coldly, "That octopus is dead, and I don’t want AiYa and the others to know that it was dead in my hand. I also hope that you can cover for what happened under the water after AiYa left."

"You’ve confined my host soul. What do you want?"

After having dressed, CaiYi’s mood had stabilized. When she remembered how bad ShiYan had treated her, her neck reddened. She now realized that ShiYan was not someone she could control, and she secretly regretted proposing to keep him before. This was like she had bought a rope to tie herself up. Not only did she fail to use ShiYan to constrain AiYa, but she ended up harming herself.

"I do not know much about this Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, so I hope you can explain it to me in detail. I am also curious about the identities of the five of you, so, you will tell me about that as well," said ShiYan emotionlessly.

"As for the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, LaoLi has told you quite precisely. For other things, I think we can talk about it later." CaiYi looked a little anxious, watching the water. "We should be in a hurry. If we return late, AiYa and other people may think that we are dead and will probably leave this place. Although AiYa is a hateful person, she had many secret treasures in her hands. Staying with her, you can detect something unexpected and avoid a lot of trouble."

Thanks to her reminder, ShiYan realized that the time he stayed in the water was too long. He thought a little bit and then nodded, "Anyway, you should remember that I have planted a soul barrier in your host soul. If you dare to have any wicked intentions, don’t blame me for being merciless." CaiYi’s face lost its color. She gritted her teeth, nodded, and secretly cursed ShiYan for being a shameless brat.

ShiYan looked at her with a faint smile. He knew that CaiYi hated him a lot, but he didn’t really care about it. At least before the soul barrier inside CaiYi’s host soul is lifted, he wouldn’t need to be worried.

"Did you kill the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus?" CaiYi looked at the lake outside the stone cave, thought for a while and then asked him.

ShiYan rubbed his chin and nodded.

CaiYi knitted her eyebrows and then flew out of the stone cave, sinking toward the bottom of the lake to find the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus’s dead body. ShiYan didn’t know what she wanted to do and thus followed her flying out of the cave with suspicion. He suspended in the water, frowning and looking at her.

CaiYi dove all the way to the bottom of the lake. When she reached the bottom, her delicate body gracefully moved like a rainbow toward the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus’s dead body. She took out a splendid, radiant dagger and dug out the octopus’s eyes.

Not long after that, CaiYi flew up next to ShiYan, holding the octopus’s eyeballs in her hands and then said to ShiYan, "This seventh level the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus’s eyeballs can form a fantasy. We couldn’t see the real scene under the water before due to the effect of these eyeballs. You have got the Demon Crystal, so these eyeballs belong to me. Are you okay with this?"

"You just take them," nodded ShiYan.

CaiYi immediately put the octopus’s eyeballs away. She contemplated for a while before aggressively looking at ShiYan, "I hope you will keep the secret about the incident that happened in the water. I don’t want anyone to know about this no matter what. You should also be careful with AiYa. She is the daughter of the castellan of White Emperor City. In White Emperor City, we are pampered girls, who are always to keep ourselves pure. As you have seen our bodies this time, with AiYa’s personality, I am afraid that she will not spare you. You should keep that in mind."

"White Emperor City…" ShiYan muttered, didn’t ask for details, just nodded and said, "I know."

CaiYi didn't continue their conversation, suppressing her hatred for ShiYan with a reddened face. She then flew up toward the lake’s surface.

ShiYan immediately kept up with her.

On the lake…

When AiYa got out of the water, a brilliant halo fully covered her wonderful curves. She quickly found a remote place to put on new clothes, and only after that did she go to see Borg, LaoLi, and LaoLun.

The three of them had been impatiently waiting for a long time. As soon as they saw AiYa came out, they hurriedly asked about the situation. AiYa told them a little bit about what took place at the bottom of the lake and also said that CaiYi and ShiYan might not return.

Right after hearing about the seventh level the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus, the faces of the three of them changed slightly. They were secretly glad that they hadn’t recklessly broken into the water, or else they were afraid that they would have had the same consequence as that of ShiYan and CaiYi.

AiYa told them about the situation in detail, blankly staring at the water without daring to go back in again.

Borg and the two brothers Lao were in a daze waiting with worried faces. They were ready to abandon ShiYan and CaiYi. If ShiYan and CaiYi didn’t come out soon, AiYa and the others would leave.

Borg had always been together with CaiYi. However, seeing CaiYi in danger, he was not ready to save her, but just frustrated. He was considering what he should do if he was alone with AiYa and the other people from now on.

While the four of them were waiting impatiently and about to give up on ShiYan and CaiYi, two figures suddenly flew out of the lake. They were ShiYan and CaiYi.

Borg was overjoyed and quickly shouted, "Sister, are you alright?"

After CaiYi had flown out of the lake, her face regained its normal state. She threw Borg a cold glance and nodded, "I am fine. ShiYan and I united and killed the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus." After talking, CaiYi couldn’t help but look at AiYa and grunt.

In their critical point of time when they were trapped, AiYa hadn’t seen CaiYi as her partner, hadn’t lent her a helping hand, but left her in danger instead. CaiYi understood it well and thus was extremely dissatisfied with AiYa.

A trace of surprise flashed up in AiYa’s beautiful eyes. She stared at ShiYan with surprise as her countenance became odd.

She would never have expected that ShiYan wouldn’t have been killed inside the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus’s mouth. When she was at the bottom of the lake, ShiYan had seen her entire body and her forbidden privates. If ShiYan had died, she would have been relieved. However, ShiYan was still alive, which somehow made her uncomfortable.

In her eyes, ShiYan’s calm and cold eyes contained a lustful look like a thorn poking her side.

After throwing ShiYan a quick glance, AiYa was very panicked; she wanted to take action but couldn’t find any suitable excuse. She couldn’t tell other people about what had happened in the lake either. In this dilemma, she felt frustrated without any clear reasons.

"That’s good. I need to recover. I think that you guys should use Demon Crystals to restore your Profound Qi. See you soon." After talking, AiYa turned around and left. She didn’t dare to look at ShiYan because she seemed embarrassed as she quickly flew away.

ShiYan watched her leave, showing a look of ridicule on his face. He sneered but didn’t say a word.

"Yes, we need to recover a bit." CaiYi complicatedly glanced at ShiYan, and then nodded toward Borg, and flew away to the opposite direction of AiYa.

Borg hurriedly caught up with her. When they came to a remote and quiet place, Borg asked quickly, "Sister, what happened at the bottom of the lake? Why do you and AiYa seem to be weird after coming out of the lake?"

"You ask too many questions." CaiYi’s face looked cold. "You knew that I was in danger at the bottom of the lake, why did you still stay ashore? Borg, do you want me to die as well?"

Borg’s face stiffened, he was very embarrassed and then revealed a wry smile, "Sister, you are in the Sky Realm but still got trapped at the bottom of the lake. I was afraid…"

CaiYi snorted coldly and didn’t say anything further. She then took out a Demon Crystal, closed her eyes for meditation, not mentioning anything about what happened at the bottom of the lake.

Although Borg was extremely curious, he couldn’t do anything when CaiYi didn’t want to tell him. Moreover, he felt ashamed, so he didn’t dare to continue asking, only stayed next to CaiYi to do his job of guarding.

"Brother, you and CaiYi are powerful indeed. You guys killed the Thousand-hand Ink Octopus. I really admire you." LaoLi laughed out loud and said, "I am not afraid if you laugh at me, but we didn’t dare to go into the water when you were trapped at the bottom of the lake. We were scared of being killed by that Thousand-hand Ink Octopus. It is such a shame." Lao Lun revealed an embarrassed smile, nodded his head and frankly admitted to being a coward.

ShiYan had soon come to know the personality of these two brothers, so he didn’t tell them about what had happened at the bottom of the lake. He shook his head and said, "My luck is still good, I think. If it weren’t for AiYa and CaiYi, that Thousand-hand Ink Octopus wouldn't have died."

After a short pause, ShiYan nodded toward these two brothers and said, "I need to find a quiet place to recover for a while."

After talking, ShiYan quickly flew away and didn’t say anything more to the two brothers, LaoLi and LaoLun.

ShiYan went to the same place as before, lazily leaning against an ancient tree, quietly feeling the changes in his body.

The three dead warriors’ auras transformed into a mystery power pouring into the Profound Qi, recovering his consumed Profound Qi entirely, and also slightly enhancing his strength.

According to this progress, he would soon have a chance to reach the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm.

Everything was developing in a good direction.

ShiYan was satisfied as he raised his head looking toward the deep area in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, guessing what he would encounter in the deepest area of it.

Suddenly, his eyes slightly narrowed while blooming out a cold light. His lazy posture suddenly straightened up. An imposing and violent momentum flowed out from his whole body.

A shadow quickly approached from the distance. Her clothes fluttered, making her look like a frosty crystal flower in the cold snow. She was AiYa.

AiYa was emotionless with an indifferent look. She gently flew over like a slender willow.

ShiYan’s face didn’t change. He felt cold at heart but was secretly on alert and ready for war.
