Chapter 426: Chapter 167 Third Mother, Your Waist is So Slim! (6k)_2
Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing’s face dramatically changed, and his heart cried out that things were bad. He hurriedly took a step forward like an arrow to firmly protect Lu Yaoyao behind him.
He then quickly bowed respectfully and said anxiously, "It was a joke, it was just a joke from a junior to you, senior. I am indeed an Array Master. If you don’t believe me, please look!"
As he spoke, Zhou Qing’s hands rapidly formed seals. Spiritual Power flowed at his fingertips, and with the evolution of spells, a full twenty different-shaped Spirit Seals hovered around him.
Although Zhou Qing forced a smile on his face, he was incessantly inwardly cursing his luck.
How could he be so unlucky to run into her here after nearly three months? You really haven’t left at all.
At this moment, the silver-haired woman’s face remained expressionless as she coldly asked, "How did you discover this place?"
"Actually, I..." Zhou Qing just started to explain.
"Think carefully before you speak, or I won’t mind performing Soul Search directly!"
The silver-haired woman spoke again, her tone carrying undeniable authority that left no room for resistance.
Zhou Qing’s face instantly turned ashen. Especially when he met her cold, emotionless eyes, his throat felt dry.
If this matter is not handled well, he might very well perish here today.
Then, he hurriedly and clumsily took out the material with an array pattern that he had dug out from the stone wall two months ago.
As he handed it over, he recounted in detail his various speculations at the time, as well as the strange angles he had observed from the Golden-winged Roc’s silhouette.
"I sensed the presence of a restriction here, so I intended to wait until most people had left and then bring my junior sister to verify it carefully. We didn’t expect that as soon as we arrived, you would show up." Zhou Qing said cautiously, terrified that a wrong word might anger this difficult person.
The silver-haired woman silently stared at Zhou Qing. After a moment of tense silence, she slowly said, "This is our third meeting, isn’t it?"
Zhou Qing noticed a hint of softening in her tone and quickly nodded repeatedly, respectfully responding, "Yes, senior."
"It can be considered fate. Since you are an Array Master, perhaps you can actually help me next." The silver-haired woman said.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing quickly said, "It would be an honor for this junior to be able to assist you, senior."
"Senior Brother Zhou, there’s no need to be so humble. You should treat her as your..." Lu Yaoyao’s words were cut off as Zhou Qing quickly covered her mouth.
With an awkward expression, he looked at the silver-haired woman and quickly explained, "Please don’t misunderstand, senior. As you can see, my junior sister isn’t very bright and often says startling things. Please don’t take it to heart."
However, the silver-haired woman didn’t say anything more. She simply flicked her finger lightly, and the Array Flag of the Massacre Array that she had taken away flew towards Zhou Qing. Seeing this, Zhou Qing quickly reached out to catch it.
"Move aside!" she ordered coldly.
Zhou Qing dared not delay. He pulled Lu Yaoyao swiftly to the side.
The silver-haired woman took a few light lotus steps forward and waved her jade hand. Radiant streaks of light appeared as if out of thin air, revealing many feathers of the Golden-winged Roc.
Though still slightly stained with dried blood, these feathers shone with brilliant golden light.
It seemed they were seized by her after the Golden-winged Roc was slain by the Old Emperor’s finger.
She focused intently, staring at the stone wall ahead. Her hands moved swiftly, and one spell after another emerged from her fingertips, precisely landing on those feathers.
With the infusion of the spells, the feathers trembled slightly, emitting even more dazzling light. They arranged themselves in a mystical formation, hovering before the stone wall.
Watching this, Zhou Qing was filled with amazement.
There was no doubt; she had already sensed the unusual nature of this place. Like him, she chose to bide her time, waiting patiently for the area to clear before making a move.
After all, aside from the Corpse Wax Crow, there were two other Spirit Severing Realm experts watching covetously, making anyone cautious about acting rashly.
But now the problem was, given her caution, would she kill them both to prevent the secret from leaking once the matter was done?
Or, more mercifully, just erase their related memories?
In any case, they couldn’t fight her, nor could they escape. If they angered her, she could likely destroy the entire Taiqing Sect with a slap, and no one would dare make a sound.
"She should be No. 6 Blue Orb, but she has a cold exterior and warm interior."
"At least in the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace, she was quite passionate and couldn’t stand No. 4 Green Orb, who initially tried to trap me. Such a person should not harm two innocent people, right?"
Zhou Qing’s thoughts raced. He recalled their first meeting when he mentioned seeing the Red Token’s image at Ke Shu in the Vast Mansion. She didn’t even search his soul and believed him, leaving directly.
During their second meeting, she had implanted a black snowflake in his body. But when she witnessed the human-formed demon race from the abyss melting into black blood, she immediately retrieved the black snowflake without forcing him down.
