Hubby, Your Fox Fairy Wants Everything

Chapter 16 Begin Displaying the Talent

Sunshine in late autumn warmed Wuyou’s heart. Every blade of grass and every tree would become sweet memory.

On the way to Fairy Kingdom, Wuyou wondered why Xiao Qi chose to take a carriage instead of using sorcery. When the carriage stopped at a place called “Wang You”, Wuyou finally understand the meaning of desolation. The lake from afar looked blank. Curiosity drove Wuyou to take a look. However, no sooner had Xiao Qi stepped forward than she was pulled back by Xiao Qi. She felt a bit puzzled, but Xiao Qi did not say a word and just headed to the lake.

The brawny and bearded man followed behind. These people looked grave. Wuyou dared not to mess around and just stayed on the horse.

In the distance, Xiao Qi threw something into the water. But Wuyou could not catch a clear sight because it was absolutely far away.

Seeing carriages of stuff being thrown into the lake, Wuyou finally realized the purpose of the carriages. “What is in the carriages? It seems that a certain monster is living in the black-water lake. To pass through it, they have to bribe the water demon in the lake. What lake is it? Does sorcery become invalid here?” Wuyou doubted it, so she gathered her Spirit Power and swept it out lightly, only to watch the Spiritual Power sink into the bottom without any trace left. “What water is it?” Wuyou strengthened her power. This time, the lake surface riffled. Wuyou swept her power to the lake again. The lake wave ran high and struck toward the lakeside, forcing Xiao Qi to retreat dozens of meters.

“Back off! You, little demon!”

Wuyou knew Xiao Qi raged. The huge waves in the lake were higher one upon another. The human bones in the lake bottom were pushed to the lakeside. Wuyou even saw half of a little gnawed finger. Were there human beings loaded on the carriages? Wuyou stared at Xiao Qi who was conjuring and setting formation. Did he just pretend to be genial and cultivated? Wuyou trotted toward the carriages. What if humans were carried on the carriage? Wuyou used her Spirit Power to cleave the carriages. With a bang, the carriages were cracked to the ground. And then, a group of children dropped out, lying on the ground quietly. Wuyou tried to lift them up but failed. These children seemed to ignore fear like fools. What had Xiao Qi done to these children on earth?

“Xiao Qi, you dared to sacrifice so many innocent children to be the food of the water demon. I’ll take your life. If I can’t today, I am not a devil!”

Wuyou spread her divine consciousness out and had the Ancient Spirit extend to pounce at Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi could sense something deviant behind him, so he collected Spirit Power to safeguard his back but still fixed his eyes on the lake.

After all, Xiao Qi’s enemy now was the water demon in the lake. He had meant to give some benefits to the water demon for a shortcut, but his plan was screwed up by this little naughty demon. It seemed that one harder fighting was inevitable today. Xiao Qi knew that it was the only access to Fairy City. This gateway that could make Spirits and Buddhas devoid of their Spirit Powers lived a water demon which was raised up by Xiao Qi’s uncle. This water demon was demoted there merely because it had broken the rule of lust. But it was rather loyal to the uncle. If it had not been greedy for bloodsucking, it would have sent the secret message to the uncle as early as it could. However, how could it find fresh blood in such a deserted area? So it had to betray the uncle temporarily. Pity that this little demon messed up Xiao Qi’s plan.

Spray rose up from the surface of the lake. Xiao Qi congealed his Spirit Power, waiting for the water demon. As long as the demon left the lake, he could defeat it successfully.

But the water demon was so sly that it did not appear no matter how hard Xiao Qi attacked. Xiao Qi’s Spirit Power was defused quickly in the lake. The water in the lake was extremely weird, since any formidable Spirit Power would be defused completely.

Right now, Wuyou’s Spirit Power disturbed the water demon and violated its dignity. Then, Xiao Qi noticed some unknown creatures appeared on the spray, which were the spirit worms transformed by the water demon. Whoever was bitten by the worms was degraded to be the water demon’s puppet until his physical body perished, but these worms could not do anything to the souls. Xiao Qi concentrated his Spirit Power lightly, and then a layer of thin film covered his whole body. The spirit worms flapped their wings over the surface of the lake and flew at the lakeside. The beard and brawny man ran into the defensive cover in a hurry.

Looking at the sky of spirit worms, Wuyou turned over her fingers and triggered her Spirit Power toward them. Those worms came to vibrate their thin wings again when they were swept to the ground. As a matter of fact, they were indestructible zombie insects.

The group of children crossed Wuyou’s mind. So she turned around to take a look, only to see a flock of small macaques instead of children lying on the ground. Unbelievably, the children were fake! It seemed that Xiao Qi should not be criticized as an evil person.

Spirit worms ceaselessly swarmed from the surface of the lake and poured toward Wuyou overwhelmingly, which made her anxious as well.

Xiao Qi’s defensive cover was surrounded by layers of spirit worms. His Spirit Power had no impact on the spirit worms, since they could resurrect in a blink.

Wuyou increased her Spirit Power to strafe the surface of the lake, thus the lake riffled again. Wuyou felt pleased with the sight. It seemed that her Spirit Power did not dread the lake water. Therefore, she reinforced and stirred up huge waves in the lake.

After a gale on the lake surface, Wuyou finally saw the water demon of the lake. It was not a tusked and fiendish monster at all, but a most enchanting man that Wuyou had ever seen.

Wuyou even suspected whether there was a demon ahead of her. How could it be a demon? It must be a handsome man coming from the world of the immortals, long hair covering his arms and gauze clothes flowing. His corners of mouth curled up perfectly into an alluring smile.

Fortunately, Wuyou was just a plume of the soul, lacking in a mortal mind to be perturbed. She clenched her fists to call the Ancient Spirit. The surging Spirit Power spread out again and chopped at the water demon until the spirit light on her arms pierced into the sky.

The charming water demon was standing on the top of the wave, demonstrating its witchcraft. A strip of antenna crept among its fair fingers and got blackened gradually on the water demon’s feeding.

Wuyou’s Ancient Spirit sensed the water demon’s aura and encircled the lake completely. The antenna which had been sucking the Demon Aura got bigger instantly, and then the distended antenna stretched toward Xiao Qi’s defensive cover.

The Ancient Spirit changed into sharp swords to shoot at the water demon. The water demon threw itself into the water to dodge the sword-storm. Once again, Wuyou chopped at it. But the water demon had fled out of sight.

Wuyou chased the water demon and leaped to the lake surface. Xiao Qi was startled at it in a cold sweat. His fingers flipped, and his thin film aflame immediately.

Those antennas puffing venom were scrabbling in the firelight. At the sight, the brawny man went rigid with fright. The venom was splashing in the blaze. Xiao Qi wielded his Spirit saber airily, and then those antennas receded to the lake like animate creatures.

But somehow the bearded and brawny man ran after the antennas and trampled them randomly. It was too late for Xiao Qi to save this brawny man’s life. Heavy smoke rolled up from the man’s body. He had been thawed into a puddle of bloody water, only a puddle of bloody water.

Observing the brawny man vanish without his whole corpse left, Wuyou finally realized what the lake of death meant. The lake before her with black water could definitely take away her life.

Even Xiao Qi himself was scared of the water demon. It was not due to the demon’s power, but the mightiness of the lake. Whoever boasted high Spirit Power would be overshadowed in front of this lake, because it could cause any Spirit Power to malfunction. Once an elf with a physical body was tainted with the black water, its physical body would be dissolved into a puddle of bloody water in a blink.

What Xiao Qi dreaded was his physical body. At this thought, Wuyou’s eyes lit up. Xiao Qi sensed what Wuyou was going to do. Would she peel off her souls? Xiao Qi was fully aware that Wuyou could not die, since she would be of great help to him, but at present, he did not have any other workable way.

Xiao Qi needed a secure method, and the safest one was to have this little demon drive the water demon out of the lake.

As long as the water demon was constrained to separate from the water, no matter how savage it was, Xiao Qi was able to vanquish it in his stride.

But no one knew how perilous it was at the bottom of the lake. He could not risk other’s life for the sake of his own interest. It was too selfish.

Xiao Qi was still wavering. Wuyou knew that Xiao Qi could not make up his mind, but she had gotten the answer in her heart. This was a life-and-death fight, but she had no choice but to take it up. She knew that she could rely on nobody but Xiao Qi, her only life-saving straw. Therefore, for her uncle and Teal Hill, she must defy death and fight to the end.

She closed eyes tightly to let her soul strip off. When her soul flew out of her body, she noticed that her physical body was carried by Xiao Qi onto the carriage. The wind blowing on the ears, Wuyou thought that she would either survive or vanish forever in this battle. But she did not become sad, because she was endeavoring to changer her fate.

She found herself plunged into total darkness and could only feel the piercing coldness of the water.

Not knowing where the water demon hid on the silent bottom of the lake, Wuyou swam in the direction of the glimmer.

It was an utterly different world with crystal clear water. Wuyou passed through a long corridor as fishes swam among her hair. On the dazzling crossbeam sat two small fairies, whispering closely arm by arm.

Wuyou detoured and wondered where the water demon lived in this vast water residence. So she released her Spiritual Power to detect the demon.

Behind a huge rock, Wuyou spotted the water demon’s dwelling place where the demon had set up a defensive cover.

Entering the defensive cover, Wuyou saw that under the glittering night sky, countless fireflies fluttered in the shade of trees, and rows of cherry bay were in golden flowers, giving out a fragrant smell in this courtyard.

Wuyou passed through the courtyard and discovered the water demon in the turning corner.

Wuyou approached slowly to the water demon, as her Spirit Power on her fingers overspread like a moving water snake. And a trace of her Spirit Power penetrated the wall and crawled toward the water demon.

“Would the water demon be imperceptible to the besiege? No, of course not for the demon!”

Wuyou was still thinking about it when a gust of cold wind blew. Thanks to the Ancient Spirit’s precaution, Wuyou escaped narrowly. Her Spirit Power had transformed into ropes, and now they were entangling with the antennas. Staring at it, Wuyou knew that the water demon was nearby. When the water demon failed to attack her sneakily and had to display its true body, Wuyou let out a sigh of relief at the sight of the water demon in the dark, realizing that it was its true body and the previous numbness was only its trick. The water demon had planned to lure Wuyou to its trap. Unexpectedly, Wuyou owned the Ancient Spirit to safeguard her.

Wuyou dispersed her divine consciousness and strengthened her Spirit Power. Those long antennas were smoldered with smoke. In the flame, the viscous venom turned into blackish green. Then, Wuyou mustered her Spirit Power to pummel at the water demon. Confronted with Wuyou’s surprise attack, the water demon hurried to withdraw its antennas in the unfavorable situation.

“Where can you run to?”

Wuyou pressed hard against the huge water demon along the way. The water demon realized that the opponent’s defensive power was too strong and that it met a real opponent today. The soul in front did not fear the black water lake at all. So the water demon began striping its body. Then, a pointed-mouth thin-chin monster crawled out of the charming leather sack, its long tongue thrusting out. Wuyou did not expect that it was the true body of this water demon. Next second, the water demon jumped up at a lightning speed and charged at Wuyou.

The thin web spun by the Ancient Spirit wrapped Wuyou around tightly. And the water demon climbed up the spirit web like a spider. It did not scare the glowing spirit web at all, instead, it climbed it up and down. Wuyou could smell the decayed stink. Since the water demon had been living in the water for a long time, its eyes became long and narrow. Its long tongue licked the spirit web to find any possible loophole.

The water demon absorbed itself on the spirit web, opening its mouth. Soon, a small transparent demon came out from its mouth.

Those small demons looked the same as the water demon. They wagged their tails, opened their small mouths and sucked the water demon tightly. Drops of blood flowed into the small demons’ bodies.

Wuyou observed how small demons changed. Their weak bodies began enlarging and sloughing continuously.

Instantly, these small demons grew with sharp teeth with small eyes on their long and thin antennas. Wuyou was aware that the small demons took her as their prey and fixed their bloodthirsty eyes on her. As for those small demons that had sucked blood, their poisonous-prickle bodies inflated quickly.

Sticking to the spirit web, the small demons kept on tearing at it. The water demon opened its mouth wide to generate numerous small demons. Wuyou secretly condensed her Spirit Power and struck at the water demon.

The water demon whipped its huge claw. Simultaneously, small demons swung their sharp claws at Wuyou while those on the spirit web spat viscous venom to corrode the web.

The water demon increased its Spirit Power. The spirit web quivered, somewhere on the web being thinned.

A small demon stuck its head in, and Wuyou wielded her Spirit Power to attack the small demon. However, flocks of small demons formed a shield to protect this small demon. Gasping for breath, Wuyou flipped her fingers and flicked the floating spirit flame out. Immediately, the spirit light emblazed the whole courtyard. It inflamed with sparks scattering. The small demons scampered away in the blaze. When Wuyou believed that those small demons were bound to die, they flew at her again inversely. The flaming small demons rolled under the water demon’s control. Wuyou’s Ancient Spirit desperately headed the burning ball off like flowing light when the ball got close to Wuyou. However, the burning ball like flowing liquid bored through the flowing light and dashed toward her. Those floating small demons swirled around Wuyou continually. Wuyou underwent the torture of the raging flames. Glaring at Wuyou’s soul being swallowed by the blazes, the water demon was heaved with exultation, while Wuyou suffered the flaring pain.

The roaring flames split Wuyou’s soul, her fingers trembling. No matter how desperately she wanted to converge her Spirit Power, the Ancient Spirits failed to hear her call.

Seeing Wuyou being feeble, the water demon brandished its claw to give a blast toward Wuyou. Then, those manipulated small demons harassed Wuyou’s soul, mingled with tearing and gobbling noise. Floating in the air, Wuyou’s soul weakened unavoidably.

The water demon extended its claw and picked Wuyou up to its mouth. It thrust out its long tongue with a straw tube on it. Next moment, a fierce gale sprang up, and Wuyou was drawn into the water demon’s belly.

In the darkness, Wuyou heard the water demon howling with laughter. Apparently, the water demon was hungering to suck her Spirit Power.

Wuyou closed her eyes and absorbed the aura. And then, a warm stream flowed continuously toward her hands, which showed the Ancient Spirit was converging. With Wuyou’s last effort, the Ancient Spirit under her call tore up the water demon’s belly like a sharp sword. The moment the Spirit Power ripped the water demon off, Wuyou dealt it a thundering blow.

The ecstatic water demon could not imagine that it would be ejected up in the air merely by the soul, its body vanishing little by little. Even until the end, the water demon was still reluctant to believe it was its doom. Subsequently, all the small demons were reduced to dust and ashes as the huge water demon was.

Wuyou raised her head up to look into the horizon, where there was no black water lake but a boundless snow land with pureness and beauty. Beneath her feet was covered with silver snow. Cold as it was, Wuyou felt warm inside. It was the first time that Wuyou had thought that it was great to be alive.

Xiao Qi gazed at Wuyou from afar, his eyes filled with surprise. Wuyou thought, “That’s great! I can protect myself finally. I can prove that I can live well by myself. No matter how great the difficulty may be in the future, I will live. Only by being alive can I prove my value; only by being alive can I find my family members and my Teal Hill.”

Xiao Qi looked at Wuyou vacantly. Her eyes glittered with attractive confidence. Xiao Qi could feel that Wuyou changed, becoming more confident. One day, she would captivate the three realms without a doubt.
