Ye Yu immediately sensed something was wrong and began to observe carefully.
He soon discovered that each immortal being flown like a kite had an invisible long line composed of immortal energy attached to them.
It was these lines that kept all the immortals from losing control as they slowly drifted forward.
The ends of these lines were tied to a cloud of auspicious energy above.
Around that cloud was seemingly a barrier blocking all divine senses, preventing Ye Yu from probing inside.
But no matter what, An Jieyue was recognized by An Jinqiu as her younger sister; with his sister-in-law in danger, Ye Yu naturally could not ignore it!
So Ye Yu slowly raised his sword finger, preparing to unleash sword qi to cut all these immortal energy lines.
Just as he was about to act, a clear voice sounded from behind.
"Brother, do you want to play with me?"
Ye Yu spun around sharply and saw a girl standing right behind him, her cheeks covered in a strange, heavy blush.
She looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a ponytail and dressed in a white long dress. Everything seemed normal except for the intense blush on her face, which made her look unsettling—like a lunatic who had just escaped from a mental hospital.
Ye Yu didn’t answer but looked at the girl’s head, where three wishes immediately appeared:
Seeing these three wishes, Ye Yu was certain the girl in front of him was definitely abnormal.
Moreover, she seemed to be the mastermind behind the immortal kites.
Because Ye Yu noticed all the invisible long lines were tied to her wrist!
However, one thing puzzled Ye Yu:
Why did he sense no immortal energy fluctuations from the girl herself?
That was extremely abnormal!
Could she be deliberately suppressing her aura?
Seeing Ye Yu remained silent, the girl tilted her head slightly and softly said, "Brother, why aren’t you speaking? Don’t you want to play with Qingci? If not, Qingci will be sad!"
Right after her words, a tangible murderous intent slowly emanated from the girl named Qingci.
Undoubtedly, it was coming from her.
"I never said I wouldn’t play with you, but if we’re playing, can you give me one of your kites? Not many, just one!"
Ye Yu pointed his hand toward An Jieyue in the sky.
No matter what this lunatic girl truly was, he had to first rescue his sister-in-law.
Otherwise, even if a fight broke out, he would be restrained!
Qingci followed Ye Yu’s finger direction, locking her gaze on An Jieyue.
Immediately, a troubled expression appeared.
"Ah? You want a kite? But that kite is my favorite; I can’t give it to you. How about I trade you a different kite?"
Rejected, Ye Yu didn’t get angry but shook his head:
"If it’s your favorite kite, then forget it. Let’s just start the game, okay? I really like games too."
Upon hearing this, Qingci was ecstatic, clapping her hands excitedly.
"Great! I finally found an interesting big brother. So what game shall we play?"
Ye Yu suggested, "Let’s play hide and seek. You close your eyes, I’ll hide somewhere. After ten breaths, you come find me. How about that?"
Qingci nodded vigorously, looking very excited.
Then obediently closed her eyes and began counting.
"One, two, three..."
Seizing this moment, Ye Yu immediately launched his Thousand Dream Illusion Technique!
He rapidly soared upward to An Jieyue’s side and used the Nine Nether Flame to burn through the invisible immortal energy line.
Freed, An Jieyue suddenly opened her eyes and took a deep breath as if reborn.
Seeing Ye Yu, she looked confused:
"Brother-in-law, why are you here?"
Ye Yu didn’t have time to explain and prepared to send An Jieyue away first.
But unexpectedly, the Thousand Dream Illusion Technique shattered!
Ye Yu’s heart sank.
It took only a single breath for the illusion to break.
At this speed, the lunatic Qingci must have cultivation at least at late Immortal King realm, perhaps even peak.
Are lunatics so powerful nowadays?
A whooshing sound pierced the air.
Qingci appeared before Ye Yu and An Jieyue, her voice icy cold:
"I was playing a game with you, but you tried to steal my kite!"
"Villain! You’re a big bad person!"
"I’ll make kites out of both of you!"
Saying this, Qingci suddenly pressed her palms together.
Countless crimson threads appeared, closing in on Ye Yu and An Jieyue.
At the moment they were about to be trapped, the two figures vanished!
Qingci looked back, only to find Ye Yu and An Jieyue already a thousand meters away.
"Don’t think you can escape my palm!"
Qingci gritted her teeth. As she moved ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) her hands, the dozen or so immortals floating in the air all opened their eyes simultaneously.
They instantly transformed into lightning-fast forms, rushing forward.
Originally, Ye Yu wanted to ask An Jieyue what was going on, but clearly, Qingci wouldn’t give them a chance to talk.
Helpless, Ye Yu pushed An Jieyue away.
"Go back to your sister, don’t come here again!"
No sooner had he spoken than a dazzling formation appeared beneath An Jieyue’s feet.
Before she could figure out what happened, she vanished.
When her vision cleared, she found herself in the eastern Heavenly Realm!
An Jieyue was not foolish.
Anyone making Ye Yu this tense could not be an ordinary being.
She thought, "I have to quickly ask my sister for help!"
So An Jieyue headed toward Yourong City.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu immediately unleashed the Divine Ghost Formation, killing the dozen or so attacking immortals on the spot.
Seeing this, Qingci’s once-beautiful face twisted into a grimace.
"You ruined the kites I worked so hard to collect. You deserve to die!"
