Chapter 318: Soulfeast Butterfly

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

It was safe in the valley. It had been half a day and a night but nothing happened.

In the distance, though, there were caves of ghosts erupting. During the middle of the night, purple light would shoot towards the sky while the earth trembled.

The eruption also meant there would be Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals which were both rare treasures.

At the same time, it also meant endless risks and dangers. The Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals alone could pierce through a person and kill them, not to mention that the caves of ghosts had strong suction after eruption. What was more, there were the Gargoyle Rats. With more eruption, there would be more rats. Only warriors above the Noble Lord Realm could survive an encounter with the rats. Who had the courage to go out now?

Jiang Hao had sent many warriors to surround the nearby area. At midnight, Jiang Hao sent out a powerful warrior of the Noble Lord Realm to secretly kill several Gargoyle Rats that were getting close.

The Pavilion of Delicacy should have learnt about what had happened and reinforcements and ships would be sent. However, it would take some time no matter how. Nobody dared to move about. They all stayed quietly in the valley.

Lu Li had spent the night consuming Soul Crystals. He was so fast that he consumed more than 200 of them.

His Soul Pond was expanded and concentrated, and the glow on it was brighter. But, he was upset that the silver dragon mark had taken so much white energy without showing any signs of change. No piece of the demon's memory was sent over.

At the break of dawn, Lu Li fell into sleep. After a couple of hours, he woke up since he felt a shake in the ground.

Luckily, it was just mild trembling. Lu Li and Ming Yu walked out. They looked towards the north. Through the thick purple fog, they saw purple steam rushing towards the sky. There must be caves of ghosts erupting over there.

Many people walked out from their tents in fear. Jiang Hao came out from a tent near Jiang Qiling's as well. Not long afterwards, a warrior of the Eternal Realm came over and shouted, "Commander-in-Chief, there are three caves of ghosts erupting right now one and a half miles to the north. There are nearly 100 Gargoyle Rats and they are coming our way."

"What!?"

Many people were scared. Once the nearly 100 Gargoyle Rats rushed into the valley, many people would be killed.

Jiang Hao turned to Lu Li who nodded. Then Jiang Hao waved his hand and said, "Jiang Ming, Jiang Yan, come with me to fight the rats. Jiang Hong, take care of people here. Qiling, go over to Young Master Lu."

The Gargoyle Rats could not breach in here. Jiang Hao rushed out with two warriors of the Noble Lord Realm and more than a dozen of the Eternal Realm.

Three warriors at the peak of the Eternal Realm walked over to Lu Li. Ming Yu was here so it would be safer.

Jiang Qiling wore a bright yellow dress; she had a violet gold hair pin with tassels. The shade she was wearing on her lips was still blood red. She looked both pretty and enticing.

She walked over to Lu Li, not saying anything and not feeling worried at all. She just stood there silently. There was not telling what she was thinking of.

Lu Li asked in curiosity, "Lady Qi, your grandpa has gone without you? Isn't he worried about you?"

For big shots, they wouldn't care even if all the passengers died here. Lu Li didn't think that Jiang Hao was a kind of saint that could concern himself with the well-being of civilians. He should have stayed with Jiang Qiling in times like this.

"Ha, ha."

Jiang Qiling tilted her head, looked at Lu Li and said in a mocking tone, "I have done many outrageous things over the years and I once almost burnt a cousin of mine to death. My grandpa is disappointed in me. I think it's normal that he doesn't care about me."

"No." Lu Li shook his head and replied, "I can feel that your grandpa cares about you."

"Right!"

Jiang Qiling continued, "All the people of the Jiang Family cares about me, especially Jiang Wuwo. But… that's it."

Lu Li could feel Jiang Qiling's hatred in her saying her father's name directly with mocking and satire. He shook his head but said nothing more. He waited for the return of Jiang Hao in silence.

"Boom, boom, boom~"

From the north came some noises. Jiang Hao and the other warriors were fighting the Gargoyle Rats. People in the valley were waiting anxiously for the fight to end.

"No, there are Gargoyle Rats coming from the south—"

Someone were shouting outside the valley. Then two people screamed in misery with some squeaks of more than a dozen Gargoyle Rats.

People's expressions changed. Jiang Hong, who was in the valley, shouted, "Incoming attacks. Jiang Lang, bring people with you to stop those rats."

More than dozens of Eternal Realm warriors rushed out. Soon, there came noises of explosion and angry shouts. Many people released their Fate Wheels, and colorful rays of light danced around in the sky.

Ming Yu frowned. He grabbed onto Lu Li, ready to take him to escape at any time. Lu Li threw a glance to Jiang Qiling who was calm, so calm that there was not a single trace of worry.

"Roar, roar~"

Some strange noises reached the valley. It was like the shout of a ghost warrior, creepy and horrifying. Then someone from the Pavilion of Delicacy shouted, "No, Jiang Lun and several others is poisoned. Kill them."

"Whoosh~"

Something was flying into the valley. When people saw that it was Gargoyle Rats, they were in a panic. Many people started to flee to all directions.

"Young Lady, go with me!"

Jiang Hong grabbed Jiang Qiling with one hand. They could not control the situation anymore. Once the Gargoyle Rats rushed into the crowd, many more would be poisoned. Any of those people would attack their companions. The spread of toxins would kill anyone that stayed behind.

"Roar, roar~"

Not surprisingly, a rat rushed into the crowds and bit a man on his thigh. His eyes turned dark blue and he began to rush towards the others, and he even began to bite people...

Jiang Qiling refused. She pushed Jiang Hong's hand away, looked at Lu Li and said, "Lu Li, ask your man to help me to control those Gargoyle Rats."

"What?"

Lu Li was just about to leave with Ming Yu when he heard Jiang Qiling's words. Jiang Hong was so scared that he tried to grab Jiang Qiling again and said, "Lady Qi, don't do this. If you are in danger, all of us will have to die."

"F*ck off! Get your dirty hands off from me!"

Jiang Qiling shouted. Killing intent surged out from her. She raised her eyebrows, looking like a formidable female demon. She turned to Lu Li and said, "So? I thought you said you are not afraid of death. Or do you not trust me?"

The black mark on Jiang Qiling's neck appeared slowly. A beautiful butterfly glowed. Lu Li made up his mind in a split of a second and said, "Ming Yu, go with her!"

Seeing how determined Lu Li was, Ming Yu chose not to talk him out of this. Ming Yu grabbed Jiang Qiling with one hand and rushed on.

The black light on Jiang Qiling's neck glowed as one black butterfly shadow after another came out. All the butterflies rushed to the Gargoyle Rats and some to the poisoned warriors.

For a time, the sky was covered by dancing black butterflies, as if the world had vanished. Many people were attracted by the butterflies.

These butterflies were small; they danced around in the sky with their wings trembling, quite amazing. They were glowing in black, truly a feast for the eyes.

One butterfly after another danced around and rushed into the Gargoyle Rats. Some poisoned warriors had butterflies in them as well. The black butterflies vanished into their bodies.

Then miracles happened—

After a Gargoyle Rat had one butterfly enter its body, the rat slowed down and the dark blue eyes dimmed down as well. When the second butterfly got in, the rat was slowed down again and then the third and fourth butterflies went in...

By the time seven or eight butterflies were inside a rat's body, it stopped on the spot, completely motionless.

The poisoned warriors acted in the same way. After seven or eight butterflies were in their bodies, they halted on the spot.

"Squeak, squeak~"

What shocked Lu Li and the others more was that those four or five Gargoyle Rats started attacking and killing ea ch other.

"Buzzing~"

The ring on Jiang Qiling's hand glowed as several black throwing knives came out. Those throwing knives pierced into the poisoned warriors' forehead, flew out from the back of their heads and went back to Jiang Qiling.

"Boom!"

Those warriors collapsed to the ground and died.

Jiang Qiling paid no attention to the Gargoyle Rats that were attacking each other. She said to Ming Yu, "Take me out of the valley. There are more of them."

Ming Yu was relieved. He took Jiang Qiling and rushed outside. The noise in the valley died down.

Lu Li was shocked internally. He asked Jiang Hong next to him, "What is this Bloodline Skill called?"

Jiang Hong told him the truth as this Bloodline Skill was so famous that Lu Li could get an answer from anyone. Jiang Hong said, "Eight-rank Bloodline, Soulfeast Butterfly! However, what happened several years ago hit her hard. Otherwise, she could even beat every one of the Eternal Realm now...."
