Chapter 703: 703
Qin Sisi took a step at a time, approaching Princess Gao Yang.
The peerless beauty who was dauntless just moments ago had now completely lost her initial radiance, weakly sprawling on the ground with her clothes disheveled, hair messy, and in a state of complete disarray.
However, she had not lost the pride of a princess. As she watched Qin Sisi slowly approaching, the thought of herself being tormented to such a state by an ordinary human and her black cat filled Princess Gao Yang with indignation and resentment.
She gnashed her teeth, her voice hoarse, "The victor is the king, the loser is the foe. If you dare, kill me. But don’t ever dream that I will beg you for mercy."
Qin Sisi slightly furrowed her brows as she looked at her, asking coldly, "Do you want to see Bian Ji again?"
Princess Gao Yang’s body shivered violently and she glared fiercely at Qin Sisi, "What do you mean?"
Qin Sisi calmly replied, "Offer your soul power to me, and I can arrange a meeting for you with Bian Ji in a thousand years."
Princess Gao Yang’s ghost has existed for over a thousand years, and Qin Sisi felt she shouldn’t be too concerned about time. The crux was whether she was willing to trust her.
Princess Gao Yang’s emotional state was clearly agitated, but as Qin Sisi feared, she didn’t believe Qin Sisi at all. With a wary expression, she asked, "Why should I believe you?"
"Because I was capable of defeating you." Qin Sisi answered every word distinctly.
What Princess Gao Yang said was correct, the victor is the king, the loser the foe. Since Qin Sisi was the victor at that moment, she had the confidence to negotiate terms with Princess Gao Yang.
Princess Gao Yang glared at Qin Sisi, indulging in resentment. After a moment, she coldly laughed and said sarcastically, "You defeated me? If it were not for that black cat, you would have died many times over."
Having sparred several rounds of magic, Princess Gao Yang had naturally discerned that the black cat was the true mastermind.
Qin Sisi pursed her lips into a smile, unconcerned about Princess Gao Yang’s mockery because she knew it was the truth. Her magic power originated from Ye You, who also taught her all her magic skills. This was not a matter of disgrace.
She had only been practicing magic for less than a year, so it was normal for her to be inferior to Princess Gao Yang, an old ghost who has lived for a thousand years. As long as Ye You could defeat Princess Gao Yang, that was enough.
Therefore, Qin Sisi said in a calm tone, "We move forward together or retreat together. If he wins, I win."
Princess Gao Yang glared at her fiercely and turned her head away.
Qin Sisi knew it wouldn’t be easy for the haughty Princess Gao Yang to surrender. She looked up at the magnificent Daming Palace and after a moment of thought, she said, "If you’re not keen on rekindling your past relationship with Bian Ji, I can arrange for him to be with another woman. What do you think of Wu Meiniang?"
It was rumored that Princess Gao Yang was extremely jealous of Wu Meiniang, it’s uncertain whether it was true or not.
"How dare you!" Princess Gao Yang suddenly reacted like a tigress whose tail was stepped on and roared at Qin Sisi.
Seeing such a large reaction from Princess Gao Yang, Qin Sisi knew she has hit the nail on the head. She lightly laugh and counter-questioned, "Why wouldn’t I dare?"
Princess Gao Yang was left without a response. She was a loser and whatever Qin Sisi, the winner, wanted to do, she was helpless to stop it.
Qin Sisi did not look at her anymore, looked at the eastern sky, and said with a cold voice, "I’ll count to ten. If you don’t agree, I will arrange for Bian Ji and Wu Meiniang to reincarnate and be together in their next life. As for you, your soul will completely scatter!"
Princess Gao Yang suddenly looked up, her eyes full of rage as she stared at Qin Sisi. Nevertheless, Qin Sisi was unmoved and started to count by herself, "One, two, three..."
Actually, Qin Sisi wasn’t sure if Ye You could arrange for Bian Ji and Wu Meiniang to be together, she only knew that Princess Gao Yang would never allow that to happen.
The expression on Princess Gao Yang’s face finally turned fearful. She was unwilling to have her soul scattered and couldn’t accept letting the man she loved to be with someone she detested like Wu Meiniang.
When Qin Sisi counted to "nine", Princess Gao Yang finally gave in, "I agree with you."
"Xiao Hei." Without giving her a second glance, Qin Sisi directly turned and called out the name of Ye You who was resting on her shoulder.
After spitting out blood, Ye You has been quietly resting on Qin Sisi’s shoulder regaining his strength. Upon hearing Qin Sisi’s call, he lightly flicked his claw, and brought forth the Spirit Conversion Bottle.
The glow of the Spirit Conversion Bottle grew brighter as it gently spun in the dark night.
"Go on, after a thousand years, I will let you meet Bian Ji again." Qin Sisi’s voice was gentle yet composed.
Princess Gao Yang raised her head, looking at this dazzling white bottle. The blurred outline of the Daming Palace around her gave her a feeling of time disorientation, as if she was still the beloved royal princess, who used to command the wind and rain.
She could do whatever she wanted, except in the matter of marriage.
Unable to defy fate and the emperor’s decree, she had no choice but to marry Fang Yi’ai, a man as inexplicable and meaningless as his name.
Bian Ji, Bian Ji, in her eyes, he was the Buddha sent by the heavens to save her.
Princess Gao Yang gradually felt the summon of the Spirit Conversion Bottle and her body began to fade.
"Wait for me, my Buddha."
She murmured one last sentence. Her soul finally transformed into grey smoke and floated into the Spirit Conversion Bottle.
Ye You waved his claw, and the Spirit Conversion Bottle returned to his hand and disappeared.
Qin Sisi sighed in relief, her knees gave way, and she knelt on the ground. Resigning herself, she sat down directly.
She had been forcing herself earlier. The great battle had exhausted her, constantly using magic skills had nearly pushed her physical limit.
Though Ye You protected her from injuries, her physical strength was already depleted. As the collection of soul power was finally completed, her tense spirit went lax, she couldn’t hold on any longer.
"Sisi, are you okay?" Ye You jumped off her shoulder with concern and lifted his paw to restore some of her energy.
Qin Sisi immediately grabbed Ye You’s paw and gently shook her head, "No, your injuries are severe."
"I’m fine." Ye You tried to break free from Qin Sisi’s grasp.
However, Qin Sisi held on even tighter, "No. I’m just tired and need to rest. You need to recover as soon as possible, there isn’t much time left. It’s dangerous there, isn’t it?"
Though Ye You didn’t mention much about the condition of the Demon Sacred Realm, Qin Sisi had guessed much about it.
Since the Demon Sacred Realm could send assassins to the Human World to hunt down Ye You, it is certain that many more dangers await them in the Demon Sacred Realm once they return.
Ye You looked at Qin Sisi deeply, and slowly withdrew his paw.
His Magic Source was severely depleted, and while he didn’t forcefully use excessive magic power tonight, he suffered from internal injuries in Princess Gao Yang’s attack and indeed needed serious recuperation.
Because, the danger of the Demon Sacred Realm would only be greater, more unpredictable.
