Running Off With The Sect Senior Sister Chapter 34

He stood up quietly. His figure flickered, and he appeared outside the cloud boat, watching the faint streaks of golden light peeking through the rolling dark clouds. His eyes instantly blazed with immense light.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, a figure appeared within it—Yun Shayi.
Almost instantly, everyone inside the cloud boat came out of their rooms, looking at that figure in the sky with envy and fervor in their eyes.
Luo Tangtang also rushed out of the room with a worried expression. She didn’t know if it was because Yun Shayi’s state of mind had suddenly gained some insight, but at that moment, her realm had loosened, and the spiritual energy within her surged even more violently, attracting the lightning tribulation.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, a bolt of pale golden lightning as thick as an adult man’s wrist struck Yun Shayi. Her white robe split open, drifting down through the air, leaving behind a streak of blood.
Everyone’s hearts clenched. Luo Tangtang’s face turned even paler, her gaze filled with worry, not daring to look away for even a second. Just now, Yun Shayi’s spiritual energy was still very chaotic; passing the lightning tribulation now was not good for her.
Bolt after bolt of lightning struck Yun Shayi. Luo Tangtang’s palms were pinched until they bled. Nine strikes, just nine strikes will be fine. Yun Shayi was only in the Nascent Soul stage; enduring nine strikes would be enough.
When the last bolt of lightning struck, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the sky, which had been gradually clearing of thick clouds, suddenly darkened again. The sky was so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip ink.
What is happening?
Confusion lingered in everyone’s minds.
Yun Shayi’s white robe was covered in blood now, and the Silver Frost sword in her hand also shone with cold light. There was a hint of fatigue in her brows. She was too tired.
But the lightning tribulation seemed to be playing a joke on her. Thunder roared, and a fierce wind struck her face. A thin streak of purple-gold lightning swam within the clouds.
“This is bad, quickly steer the cloud boat back and stay away from the center of the tribulation!” Almost the moment the lightning appeared, the Elder standing inside the cloud boat, whose eyes were usually still like an ancient well, instantly had his pupils constrict. He said sternly to the disciples behind him.
“What’s wrong?” Luo Tangtang’s heart tightened, and her face turned unpleasant.
“This is a Soul Manifestation stage lightning tribulation, and it’s the most powerful purple-gold lightning. We are currently inside the tribulation. If we continue to stay here, we might be affected,” the Elder said with a heavy face.
“Then what about Senior Sister?” a disciple asked worriedly.
“Leave it to fate.”
Leave it to fate? Luo Tangtang’s expression was dazed for a moment, then became resentful again.
“She’s so heavily injured, she’ll die.”
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, the pressure from the sky suddenly intensified, pressing down on everyone, almost making them unable to breathe.
“Hurry!” the Elder said sharply.
The huge cloud boat moved quickly across the sky. Tiny wisps of lightning had already fallen onto the cloud boat, leaving blackened pits.
Yun Shayi gently waved her arm. The long sword in her hand emitted dazzling light, piercing through the incoming lightning. Her figure moved quickly, fleeing into the distance. The lightning tribulation also gradually shifted with her movement.
“Senior Sister lured the tribulation away.”
“No! Cannot leave her alone here!” Luo Tangtang rushed out as well.
Her mind was a mess. She could only hear the noise behind her, but her gaze had flown far away, following that figure.
Perhaps she had reached the tribulation’s range, as Luo Tangtang also suffered many wounds from large and small lightning bolts.
What should I do! Just as Luo Tangtang was panicking, a scream suddenly rang out. Yun Shayi’s arm was hit, and the sword in her hand slipped, turning into a streak of light and falling somewhere unknown.
“Senior Sister!” Luo Tangtang cried out in panic.
She couldn’t get close. Otherwise, Heaven’s will would consider it interfering with the tribulation, and this would harm Yun Shayi. She could only stay on the outer edge.
When she was at a loss, a certain place in her mind that had been silent suddenly spoke with a familiar electronic voice: “The female lead is in danger. Please, Host, rescue her quickly.”
Hearing this voice, Luo Tangtang’s eyes were filled with hot tears. “I’ll save her, I’ll save her right now! Quickly tell me, what should I do?”
[One Heaven-Deceiving Talisman.]
“How do I use it?”
[Can make the Host’s aura consistent with the female lead’s, deceiving Heaven’s detection. As long as you are close to the female lead, you can help the female lead negate fifty percent of the damage.]
A talisman paper suddenly appeared in Luo Tangtang’s hand, turned into points of light, and merged into her body. Luo Tangtang instantly felt her body become much heavier. Without thinking twice, she rushed directly towards the center of the lightning tribulation, running directly in front of Yun Shayi.
“Why are you here? Quickly leave!” Seeing the person who suddenly appeared, Yun Shayi’s heart skipped a beat. Her face, which had been expressionless, instantly became furious. She grabbed Luo Tangtang’s hand and was about to throw her out.
But Luo Tangtang took the opportunity to hug Yun Shayi’s neck, refusing to let go no matter what. Bolt after bolt of lightning struck directly onto Luo Tangtang’s body, making her let out heavy muffled groans.
“Luo! Tang! Tang!” Yun Shayi almost gritted her teeth, yelling fiercely word by word, “Let go, get lost!”
But she ignored her. Now she was in so much pain that her teeth were shaking, biting her lower lip.
Yun Shayi struggled fiercely. Only then did Luo Tangtang whisper tremblingly, “Don’t push me, it hurts.”
At this, Yun Shayi immediately stopped and pulled Luo Tangtang into her embrace.
Just as Luo Tangtang thought Yun Shayi wouldn’t push her away, the next moment, Yun Shayi roughly pulled her down.
Luo Tangtang’s body froze. Yun Shayi didn’t know what method she used, but she made her unable to move now.
Yun Shayi’s gaze deepened. She used the last bit of spiritual energy to erect a small protective shield, protecting Luo Tangtang within it. Then a cold light flashed in her hand, and an ice blade shot towards the sky. The lightning that was originally attacking Luo Tangtang instantly shifted to Yun Shayi’s body. Yun Shayi turned around and ran without hesitation.
The lightning tribulation barraged Yun Shayi, covering the sky and earth. Yun Shayi calculated silently in her heart, There are still seven strikes. The last few strikes of the tribulation would be spaced out, considered Heaven’s will giving these heaven-defying people a final bit of mercy. But Yun Shayi now wished Heaven’s will didn’t have this damned mercy and several strikes would just come down at once.
I’m sorry, Tangtang. Yun Shayi’s eyes flickered. When she turned back to take another look at Luo Tangtang, she found that the spell she cast had somehow been broken, and Luo Tangtang was rushing towards her full of anger.
No, must dodge. Yun Shayi was startled at first, then a trace of panic flashed across her face. She immediately became faster.
Luo Tangtang’s cultivation was not as high as Yun Shayi’s, but Yun Shayi had undergone the lightning tribulation for so long and consumed a lot of spiritual energy. For a while, the two maintained a distance and could not get any closer.
“Yun Shayi, stop right there!” A heart-wrenching sound came from behind, with a crying tone.
Hearing her words, Yun Shayi ran even faster. She couldn’t catch up.
“System, quickly give me a speed boost.”
There was no other way; Luo Tangtang could only ask the System for help again.
The System: “…” Do you really think I’m omnipotent? I just replenished that little bit of energy. That’s what it was thinking, but the System still gave Luo Tangtang a speed boost.
When Luo Tangtang fiercely pounced onto Yun Shayi, Yun Shayi was still struggling desperately.
A lightning strike came down, and both fell from mid-air. At the critical moment, Yun Shayi acted as Luo Tangtang’s human cushion, protecting her beneath her.
Luo Tangtang rolled over, pinning Yun Shayi beneath her. The Immortal Binding Rope came out and bound them tightly together.
If we’re going to die, let’s die together. Even if we’re struck into dust, we’ll still be one clump lifted by the wind.
“Luo Tangtang, let go.” Yun Shayi’s body was bloody and mangled; some wounds showed white bone. The Immortal Binding Rope was soaked red.
“Don’t move, it’ll be over soon,” Luo Tangtang said softly. All her strength was used to suppress Yun Shayi. She buried her head in Yun Shayi’s neck, and that part of Yun Shayi’s collar immediately became wet.
Lightning flashed, thunder roared incessantly. They didn’t know when it stopped. Luo Tangtang and Yun Shayi both fell unconscious.
A layer of silver light emerged from Yun Shayi’s body, like airflow circulating around her. The wounds on her body instantly healed at a visible speed, and her pale cheeks gradually returned to normal.
In comparison, Luo Tangtang was quite miserable. Her back was a mess, and blood flowed continuously, falling onto Yun Shayi.
“Sigh!”
The System floated in mid-air, looking at the two lying on the ground. Its eyes held complex emotions. A gentle breeze blew past, and some presences were concealed. The rustling sounds in the bushes on both sides stopped abruptly.
The night was hazy, and moonlight fell quietly, casting a patch of shadow. A faint sound came from her ear. Yun Shayi’s eyelashes moved first, then a pair of cold eyes suddenly opened.
“Tangtang!” Looking at the person lying on top of her, Yun Shayi’s lips parted slightly. Seeming to sense something, her gaze instantly turned dead and looked towards the sky, motionless.
Her heart was like being pricked by needles. Intense pain, regret, vexation, and despair, like sea waves, surged towards her wave after wave, almost engulfing her.
Her hand inadvertently touched something—a patch of dampness. Yun Shayi stared blankly at the blood on her hand. Her pupils constricted, and her whole body trembled violently.
“Tang… Tangtang,” Yun Shayi called out softly, her voice trembling.
She extended her hand, wanting to stroke the young woman’s head. Just as her hand touched the strands of hair, the head that was originally stiff on her chest tilted and fell onto her neck.
Yun Shayi’s body trembled violently.
“Senior Sister, stop moving around,” a slightly dissatisfied voice sounded in the silent air. Luo Tangtang muttered.
The person beneath her was moving, shaking her head made her head hurt.
A faint breath suddenly brushed against her. Yun Shayi’s body instantly tensed up, terrified that she had felt wrong. Her eyes moved; there was light in them.
Yun Shayi carefully placed her hand on Luo Tangtang’s wrist. Spiritual energy slowly flowed in like a thin stream.
“I’m sorry,” Yun Shayi said softly.
The next day, Luo Tangtang woke up. Without opening her eyes, her consciousness recovered first. She only felt her body hurt everywhere. The feeling beneath her was soft.
She opened her eyes, and only then did she realize she was lying in Yun Shayi’s embrace. Without hesitation, Luo Tangtang slapped Yun Shayi’s shoulder.
“Hiss!” Yun Shayi opened her eyes and saw the furious Luo Tangtang.
“Yesterday, did you enjoy pushing me?”
Yun Shayi lowered her eyes, concealing the emotions within them. Copying Luo Tangtang’s tone, she said, “Yesterday, did you also enjoy blocking?”
Luo Tangtang choked, and didn’t speak.
It wasn’t that she had nothing to retort with; it was just out of a survival instinct that told her that it was best not to speak now.
“I hurt,” Luo Tangtang said after being silent for a while, starting to act pitiful.
Yun Shayi paused. She picked up her storage ring, and a porcelain white jade bottle appeared in her hand.
“Drink it,” Yun Shayi handed the bottle to Luo Tangtang.
Luo Tangtang strangely picked up the jade bottle. It felt quite light.
Opening the stopper, Luo Tangtang lifted the jade bottle to her mouth. Huh~ just one drop.
A warm current flowed from within her body to her limbs and bones. The pain and fatigue all over her body immediately disappeared. Her originally depleted spiritual energy also became dense, even purer than before.
“What did you give me to drink?” Luo Tangtang suddenly raised her head, looking at Yun Shayi with wide eyes, with terror in them.
“The little Qilin gave me Yuqi juice.”
“What?”
The world seemed to turn upside down. Luo Tangtang felt the world turn dark.
“You gave me Yuqi juice to drink?” She pointed at herself, her face full of an expression like she was about to cry.
“Yes.” Yun Shayi nodded.
“There were only three drops!” Last time Yun Shayi used one drop, this time she used one drop for her. There’s only one drop left, hanging around the little Qilin’s neck.
“It’s fine, this is the little Qilin’s compensation. One drop is enough for it.”
“You—!” Luo Tangtang held her forehead.
“Don’t touch me, I need to calm down.”
