Chapter 144: The Sword Cultivator Cousin in the Immortal Cultivation Novel (6)
The biting cold wind whistled past her ears. Lin Xi's whole body was tense, her legs trembling, and she hugged Luo Qinghe's slender waist tightly with both hands. She closed her eyes, not daring to look at the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas that were passing by rapidly through the gaps in the clouds below her feet.
At this moment, she felt like crying but had no tears. She had not expected that after all her calculations, she had not expected that this body was afraid of heights. Even though Luo Qinghe had tried to fly slowly while taking care of her, the passing scenery still made her feel dizzy. She was afraid that if she lost her balance, she would fall down.
Feeling her hand around her waist trembling slightly, Luo Qinghe, who had been calm, couldn't help but get nervous, but she still said to comfort Lin Xi: "Miss Lin, don't be afraid."
"Okay, okay, I'm not afraid." Seeing her comforting herself in a gentle voice, Lin Xi responded quickly, but the strength in her hands did not relax much, and her body even pressed against Luo Qinghe's back.
Luo Qinghe's life sword is called "Huaxie". It is about three feet long and no more than two inches wide. It is exquisite and graceful. When it is danced, there are little bright lights lingering around the sword, and it is colorful. When Lin Xi saw it for the first time, he was amazed.
But no matter how beautiful it was, the sword was too narrow. Even though the sword would become larger when flying, she and Luo Qinghe were both slender people, but the two of them still looked a little cramped when standing. So in order not to fall, Lin Xi could only hold tightly onto the slender waist of the person in front of her, not daring to relax at all.
Luo Qinghe had the lowest cultivation level among the group, and his sword-controlling skills were just so-so, but since he was the one who suggested taking Lin Xi along, he didn't want to trouble others.
Therefore, when Yue Qian suggested that she give Lin Xi a ride, she not only rejected Yue Qian's proposal generously, but also pulled Lin Xi onto her "pirate ship".
She had originally been trying her best out of her passion, and now, infected by Lin Xi's nervousness, she couldn't help but stutter as she listened to Lin Xi's stammering answer, "You, you, don't be afraid, I control the sword very, very steadily, I will definitely not let you drop..." Before she finished her words, the sword shook violently, and then began to shake violently.
"There's something unusual ahead, form a formation!" In a flash, someone in the front suddenly shouted, and before everyone could react, a large cloud of black fog rushed towards them.
"Ah!" The world was spinning, and Lin Xi felt that her hand around Luo Qinghe seemed to be hit violently by something. The severe pain made her let go of her hand instantly.
However, the flower pavilion was shaking violently, and Luo Qinghe was busy trying to stabilize the sword, and had no time to care about anything else. The moment Lin Xi let go, the sword trembled, and she immediately lost her balance and fell straight into the clouds.
"Miss Lin!" Luo Qinghe felt something empty behind her. She turned around and saw that there was no trace of Lin Xi. Surrounded by black mist, she could only see a fluttering corner of a snow-blue dress.
Luo Qinghe reacted quickly and reached out to grab it, but the black mist seemed to have consciousness and instantly split into two streams. One stream attacked her hand fiercely, while the other stream chased after Lin Xi who was falling rapidly. Luo Qinghe only felt a pain in her wrist, and her hand instantly lost strength. She could only watch the corner of the clothes disappear from her sight.
“Why are there so few negative reviews for parachutes?”
“Because no one who can give a bad review is around anymore.”
Lin Xi admired herself very much for being able to remember such a funny joke at this life-and-death moment. Even though she was in the process of falling at a high speed and the biting cold wind made her tears flow, her face was distorted, and her heart was beating so violently that it seemed like it was going to burst out of her chest, this joke still came to her mind at a very inopportune time.
"Alert! Alert! The host is detected to be in extreme danger. Do you want to consume a life-saving pill to ensure the host's safety?" The system's harsh voice exploded in Lin Xi's mind, and the red alarm signal kept flashing.
"Confirm use!"
The shrill alarm finally woke Lin Xi up from her confused thoughts. She felt the whistling wind scraping past her ears like a knife, and she couldn't help but groan inwardly.
She gritted her teeth and estimated that if she fell from this height, she would be broken into pieces instead of covered in bruises, and then she pressed the confirm button without hesitation.
"Confirmed success." As the system's voice fell, Lin Xi instantly felt a round pill in her hand. She gritted her teeth, tried to adjust her posture in the air, and raised her hand to put the pill into her mouth.
But just as she was about to put the pill into her mouth, a black mist suddenly attacked her wrist. She felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and then the life-saving pill that was extremely precious to her fell from her hand in an instant and disappeared in the layers of mist.
However, before she could lament that her few golden fingers were gone, the black mist succeeded in its attack and quickly rushed towards her face.
Lin Xi's eyes went dark, and her mind suddenly became dizzy. The black mist lifted up her rapidly falling body, and transformed into thin black threads that gradually wrapped her up. It was about to penetrate into her nose and ears. At the critical moment, a cold voice broke through the air.
"Eliminating evil, cleansing filth, destroying evil spirits, breaking disasters, wiping out evil!"
A sword light filled with righteousness suddenly lit up, instantly tearing through the darkness. With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, the sword light was as powerful as a bamboo breaking through the layers of thick clouds, and it sounded like thunder in Lin Xi's ears.
The black mist that was about to penetrate her body, when it touched the sword light, seemed to have encountered an extremely frightening natural enemy, and it immediately let out a series of shrill screams. In an instant, it dispersed into several strands, screaming and twisting in an attempt to escape.
But the sword light seemed to have life. At the moment when the black fog collapsed, it turned into streams of light and chased the black fog straight away.
Along with the shrill screams, a pungent smell of burning flesh emanated from the sky. The black fog in the sky instantly disappeared into fine black ash, which fell to the ground.
All these changes happened in a split second. The moment the black fog disappeared, Lin Xi's body lost its support and fell rapidly downwards.
In mid-air, Wei Qingchuan, dressed in snow-green tights, formed seals with his fingers and took back the sword spirit that had been used to slay demons. His black hair was flying, his clothes were fluttering, and he lowered his eyes to hide the barely noticeable scarlet color in them.
The next moment, his figure was as fast as lightning, his toes lightly tapped the sword, and his whole body instantly burst out with a sharp momentum, like a rapidly falling star stone, and he rushed in the direction where Lin Xi fell without hesitation.
