Chapter 149

The Fairy Green Mother nodded her jade head lightly and said again, "What if I tell you that reality differs from the story, and Huang Xiang is not my daughter?"

Not your daughter?

The Flower Fairy said nothing, yet clearly did not believe it.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me."

The Fairy Green Mother was not surprised; she extended her arm, pulled back her sleeve, and revealed a segment of snow-white skin as smooth as jade.

Upon it, a streak of cinnabar red stood out conspicuously.

"The Palace Guard Sand?!" The Flower Fairy's beautiful eyes widened round.

She still did not believe it, fearing the Fairy Green Mother was faking it, and specifically stepped forward to examine it closely.

And the Fairy Green Mother let her do so.

After a moment, the Flower Fairy stepped back, exhaling a long breath.

A trace of nostalgia appeared in the Fairy Green Mother's eyes as she said, "Back then, I did indeed escape the palace and fell in love with a man, but I did not, as the story goes, violate the palace rules of the Immortal Water Palace."

"Then Huang Xiang is..."

"I don't know; perhaps he is someone else's child."

"Then this hairpin..."

"His ancestral treasure was indeed a hairpin, but that has nothing to do with me."

The Flower Fairy understood and hurriedly said, "Your subordinate is guilty!"

Just as the Flower Fairy thought the misunderstanding was resolved and everything would be fine, the Fairy Green Mother nodded seriously: "You are indeed guilty."

The Flower Fairy: "..."

No, I was just being polite, and you're taking it seriously?

You don't intend to use the story to convict me, do you?

The Flower Fairy's heart trembled with doubt, then she heard the Fairy Green Mother say: "Although I did not violate the palace rules, this matter made me realize that you are not of one mind with me. So, if you were in my place, how would you treat a disobedient subordinate?"

The Flower Fairy's heart gave a sudden thump, then she quickly steadied herself.

Seeing the Flower Fairy act with bold assurance, the Fairy Green Mother could not help but smile: "You probably think I cannot do anything to you, don't you?"

With things said to this point, the Flower Fairy stopped being polite and met force with force: "I request to test the Palace Master's divine powers!"

The Fairy Green Mother nodded her jade head lightly: "Indeed, I truly wish to try whether this layer of protective light shield can block my 'Soul-Stealing Great Art'."

Before her words had fully faded, the Fairy Green Mother's pupils suddenly shone with spiritual light, like two brilliant little stars.

Eye to eye, a layer of protective light shield instantly Stirred up a layer around the Flower Fairy's body.

However, this defensive effect was less than one-tenth of the previous one!

Because the defensive power of the protective light shield is the sum of the true qi defenses of all the diary copy holders, not their mental defense.

Although the protective light shield has some effect against mental attacks, it is not much, less than ten percent.

And the Fairy Green Mother herself is a Late-Stage Heavenly Being; her 'Soul-Stealing Great Art' is also a Sacred Scripture, so the Flower Fairy simply could not block it.

In almost a single glance, the Flower Fairy fell victim.

The Flower Fairy's eyes showed a slight struggle, then returned to calm as she softly greeted: "Palace Master."

It worked!

The Fairy Green Mother's eyes lit up.

She did not know the weakness of the protective light shield, but since the 'Soul-Stealing Great Art' was one of her trump cards, she naturally wanted to use it to test the depths.

And this test actually succeeded!

"It seems this protection is not all-powerful," the Fairy Green Mother thought silently.

However, she herself was proficient in mental secret arts, so she did not need to worry too much about others using this move against her.

Afterwards, the Fairy Green Mother released the mental control over the Flower Fairy.

After the Flower Fairy regained consciousness, she did not lose the memory of the previous moments and looked at the Fairy Green Mother with a face full of horror.

The Fairy Green Mother smiled elegantly and added another warning: "Remember, do not think that with the protection of the 'Kunji Seal', you can act recklessly before me. Do you understand?"

The Flower Fairy's expression shifted; she bit her lip: "The Flower Fairy understands."

Circumstances are stronger than people; she had no choice but to bow her head.

The Fairy Green Mother made an "Mm" sound, then paced around the Flower Fairy, examining her closely.

The Flower Fairy's heart tightened, not knowing how the other would deal with her this time.

After a long while, the Fairy Green Mother clicked her tongue in admiration: "He spoke correctly; you are indeed a peerless beauty. Pity, this beauty of yours is too heartless, lacking the emotions one should have as a human being."

The Flower Fairy did not understand her meaning and hurriedly said: "I am not comparable to the Palace Master's unparalleled elegance."

The Fairy Green Mother gave no definite answer and said: "I want you to help me complete a task."

"The Palace Master need only give the order; the Flower Fairy will face death without hesitation!"

"Is that so?"

The Fairy Green Mother suddenly leaned forward, their faces almost touching, and said teasingly: "What if I ask you to serve men?"

The Flower Fairy's expression changed abruptly!

The Fairy Green Mother raised the Flower Fairy's chin with a green-onion-like jade finger and said: "Rest assured, I am not asking you to serve those stinking men; I will give you to the diary owner. How about that?"

The Flower Fairy felt slightly relieved but could not help asking: "Why would you do this?"

"Because..." the Fairy Green Mother smiled mysteriously: "I want to trade you with him for the 'Heavenly Sword'. Do you think he will agree?"

Trade me for the 'Heavenly Sword'?

The Flower Fairy was stunned and instinctively said: "Impossible! He will absolutely not agree!"

"You think he won't; on the contrary, I think he definitely will!" the Fairy Green Mother said with full confidence.

165 Mobilize the power of Taihu to suppress King Abhira!

Will it really?

Would the diary's owner really trade the incomparably precious "Heavenly Sword" for her?

Hearing Fairy Consort Lümu speak with such solemn assurance, Flower Fairy's heart wavered as well.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration lit her mind: "What you want isn't the 'Heavenly Sword' — it's the 'Elixir of Immortality' that might exist within the blade!"

Fairy Consort Lümu smiled faintly: "Clever! Well? Do you like my arrangement?"

Flower Fairy fell silent.

Fairy Consort Lümu sighed: "You grew up in the cold, icy Immortal Water Palace, and have almost lost the emotion called 'love.'"

"Now I'm sending you to him — perhaps he can change you, and only then will you be like a real person."

"Who knows, once you've tasted the joy of being a woman, you might even be grateful to me~ then."

Seeing Fairy Consort Lümu's mind was made up, Flower Fairy said coldly: "And you? Since there are so many benefits, why don't you go find him yourself?"

Fairy Consort Lümu smiled without a word.

Flower Fairy felt a surge of contempt in her heart.

What are you pretending? You just can't forget your old lover, can you?

Suddenly, a thought rose from the depths of her heart—

"If you really send me to him, I'll drag you down with me someday. Once you lose your purity, let's see what face you'll have to miss your old love!"

Flower Fairy hardened her heart in secret, then suddenly felt her body grow light — and was swept away by Fairy Consort Lümu.

……

For three days straight, Jiang Sishui took A Bi out with him during the day, which delighted the little girl immensely.

She even prayed every day in her heart, hoping King Abiluo would come one day later.

And during this time, Jiang Sishui also dealt with several waves of people sent to test him.

Finally, today the two of them met the main figure.

A black-robed man wearing a mask, hands clasped behind his back, descended from the sky, bringing with him a silent pressure that blocked their path.

His body was as light and nimble as a falling leaf, yet his aura was as heavy as a mountain.

He was still drifting in the air when the surrounding small world fell under his control, to be kneaded as he wished.

Layer upon layer of invisible world-force sealed off the ten directions of space, cutting off Jiang Sishui's escape route.

Faced with such heaven-defying means, Jiang Sishui had long been mentally prepared, and had no thought of fleeing — he simply watched quietly as King Abiluo made his showy entrance.

Finally, his feet touched the ground.

King Abiluo faced the two and said coldly: "So it was you who killed my Xueyueshen Sect's Great Protector Hei Hei Qiling, and stole the tribute that Liuhe Gang was offering to my Sect?"

Jiang Sishui said nothing, took the noble-rank ornament from A Bi's neck, held it in front of him, and waved it back and forth.

Seeing King Abiluo had no reaction, he immediately understood: "You are King Abiluo?"
