Chapter 64 - Time To Wake The Sleeping Beauty
"You do realize you are dying right?" Lilith placed her head on the nook of her neck and whispered in her ear in low sound.
"Yes, I know." Elder Lin was calm when she replied to her.
"I know the limit of my strength and my life." She side stepped from where she was standing and maintained a physical distance form Lilith.
"I know my body a lot better than anyone else does so your threats to kill me or harm me are useless." She dusted off the dirt from her robe.
"Hmm.." Lilith looked at Lin Yuan with a silent eyes. She did not imagine anyone would remain this silent hearing they were going to die. If they were calm to this extent then either they were truly tired of their life or they had some sort of strength to overcome it or..
She looked at Lin Yuan once again and nodded.
'Or they were simply luffing to show off.' Lilith had a feeling it was the latter option.
Lilith immediately looked at her cultivation realm, something he had overlooked before since she really did not care about her cultivation base. She knew she surpassed any human or creatures when it came to cultivations and strength.
This time, she wanted to check her status, not because she wanted to but to make sure if the things Elder Lin were saying was purely a bluff or it came from her strength.
"Oh my.." Lilith gasped when she saw her cultivation stage.
"So you are already at the nascent soul stage?" Lilith was impressed with her cultivation speed. Her age currently only looked like she was a young maiden but she was already at Nascent soul stage.
Humanity really had made progress in the short span of time she was gone.
"I feel old." Lilith let out a sigh.
"I knew you could see my cultivation." Lin Yuan threw draggers look at Lilith for the nth time during this period.
"I did say I have been around this place for a long time, sweetie." Lilith sent a flying kiss towards her and winked at her.
Lin Yuan: ".." I am really speechless.
'You must truly be the person who brought out the perverted culture in the world.' Elder Lin wanted to tell that to her face.historical
"But you haven't been able to cultivate to breakthrough right? You are stuck." She straightened herself before turning away from Elder Lin.
"It's .." Elder Lin knew that better than her. Ever since she had the incident in the western province, when she was on a secret mission, her cultivation had stagnated over time.
She figured it was because of the curse mark she got at that time.
"I am sure you got the curse on you only recently?" Lilith asked her when she had thought through the things a little more.
"Yeah, around one year ago but I will spare the details. We are not here to talk about me." Elder Lin was not concerned about her health condition.
It would be a lie to say that she saw not but at the moment, she had other important things to take care of, things that could only be taken care of by her altogether.
Even if she was to die, she had her own plans in mind. If she was going down, she was not going to go down this easily.
"Oh well.." Lilith was chill with whatever decision she took. It was not like she was to take care of every person out there.
"But just so you know, you can always come to me if you feel like not dying." Lilith decided to let go of this matter for the time being. She was well aware of the curse mark on her face and how to get rid of it but if the other party was not willing, she also had no obligation to do anything for her.
"I hope that day never comes." Lin Yuan bowed down in a sign of polite gesture. She was fine with how things were and she had no plans to visit her ever again. All she wanted was to solve the situation.
"Suit yourself, little girl." Lilith returned back to her seat and sat down while Lin Yuan wore back her veil.
Although she was acting like it was no big deal for her to remove her veil, she was still relieved to wear it back. She did not want people seeing her like how she did at that moment.
Even if it was for the sake of image, she had to hide this fact from people around her. She could not bear to let them down.
"Ugh..this human girl." Lilith wanted to shrug and she did as he looked at how the fake the humans were. They always tried to look pure, look good and look like a perfect image craved from the wooden board.
"Since I promised you to give your answers for showing your face, I won't go back on my words. I have my own pride." Lilith crossed her arms and looked at Elder Lin.
"As you can see, I am what you people called hmm.." She rubbed her temple as she thought about what she was called.
"A formless." Elder Lin decided to help her remember.
"Yes, I don't know why you call us formless when I pretty much have such an amazing body and face." Lilith let out a disappointed sigh.
"Well, technically.." Lin Yuan thought of the definition of formless they were made to understand.
"You and a few others are exception." She concluded her brief explanation.
"Hmm, now that you say it, it has been ages since I ever met my people." Lilith had a nostalgic look on her face as she reminisced about her place.
"Oh, as you can see, I am sealed here." Sensing the curious look on Elder Lin's face, she decided to explain her origin. She showed her chains and gave a smile as she shook them.
"Huh?" Elder Lin was more surprised about the fact that she was not a pervert than with the fact she was walked here.
"You did not think I was with these chasing cause I love playing bondage, did you?" Lilith asked her with a shocked face.
"Ahahaha.." Lin Yuan scratched the back of her neck with an awkward expression on her face.
Getting no answer form her, Lilith realized that she indeed had been thought of as a pervert by some puny human. She decided to just play around with the chains when she was bored as hell. Apart from that, she had no other intention.
"Cough, you should continue with your explanation." Lin Yuan did not want to talk about this awkward topic anymore.
"I get you are sealed but why and who will do that?" Elder Lin was still confused about this certain thing.
"I chose to seal myself here." The look in Lilith's eye got darker than before. The dark glow in her eyes continued to grow even darker.
"It was more like an escape for me." Lilith shut her eyes down to cut off the emotions in her eyes.
"Just to let you know, the body of this girl can absorb the qi without even a moment break because it's basically three people sharing it." Lilith wanted to make the matter clear to her about why Le Fangling's body was like how it was.
There was other reason as well, but she decided it was not the time yet for her to say this.
"It's alright. The moment she starts to cultivate and learns how to absorb, circulate and store qi on her own accord, she will not be affected by it." Lilith smiled looking at Elder Lin.
"I will handle the rest, like how I have always done." With this she ended her explanation.
"Three people?" Elder Lin was dumbfounded when she heard her. Just as she was about to say something more, she felt a stabbing pain on her chest.
"Oops, you have been here for a long time. You are fading away." Lilith pointed at the see through temporary body of Elder Lin that was currently inside the sea of consciousness and commented.
"I can hold on a much longer." Lin Yuan knew she was reaching her limit.
"No, no, off you go. I do not want any trouble in my boding place." Lilith waved her hand and send a gust of wind toward her.
Just before she was about to disappear, Lilith decided to drop the biggest bomb ever.
"As for my relation with this girl," she yelled as she waved her bye bye.
"What?" Lin Yuan shouted at the top of her lungs at her.
"She is .." Lilith smiled showing a blooming smile.
..
*Gasp*
With a loud gasp, Elder Lin opened her eyes only to find herself on the verge of falling down on her knees since she exhausted more than half of her qi. If she had been a little late, she would have been completely drained out.
Standing beside the bed she looked at the face of Le Fang Ling who was still under the sleeping spell.
She removed her sweaty hands from her forehead and wiped them with a clean piece of clothes.
She thought about what she learnt in the time she was gone.
"Alright, let's do this." She took a deep breath and placed her hands on top of Le Fangling's belly where the seal was located.
It was time for her to remove the sealing formation from the belly of the sleeping beauty.
