458 - Senior Sister Is on Top
Jiang Yin couldn't stand the tear-jerking warmth of the moment. Seeing a manly man about to cry, she mercilessly punched him and said, "Hold it in. With that expression, are you mourning for me?" One sentence shattered Jin Yi Leng's deep emotions, turning the joy in his eyes into awkwardness and confusion. Jiang Yin, however, did as she pleased. Seeing the sentimental atmosphere ruined, she let out a deep sigh of relief. Spotting Tang Bao nearby, she chuckled, "You didn't run away? What, did you suddenly remember my goodness?" Your goodness? Tang Bao’s mouth twitched, thinking to himself that this person really couldn't help but be snarky. If he could defeat the artifact and her junior sister, he would've taken action long ago. He turned his face away indifferently, remaining silent as ever. Jiang Yin didn't mind. After teasing the two of them, she turned her gaze to Chi Yue, suddenly at a loss for words. In the end, it was Chi Yue who had to break the silence awkwardly, uttering, "Master." Jiang Yin's heart skipped a beat. She stole a glance at her junior sister, seeing that she didn't seem to notice anything, and immediately corrected her with a light cough, "Ahem, call me Tower Master from now on." She painstakingly tried to cover it up, not realizing her junior sister had long known about the servant contract. Watching her reaction now was particularly amusing to her. "It's not Tower Master, you know. I am the current Tower Master. If you need to call me something, Tower Master's Wife seems quite fitting," Tang Mu Xi said, smirking as she leaned closer to her senior sister's ear. Her voice was tender and sultry, slightly husky, but clear for everyone to hear. Jiang Yin's face immediately darkened. Her lips moved, but she ultimately didn't retort. It wasn't an admission; she just knew she couldn't do anything to her junior sister right now. She silently noted this debt in her heart, planning to take her revenge someday. After leaving Mirror Moon Tower, Tang Mu Xi noticed that her senior sister had turned into a sulking gourd. Not only did she not coax her, but she also teased her with interest, "I finally understand how senior sister feels now." Jiang Yin looked up, puzzled, not understanding what she suddenly meant. But as she listened to the next words, she became even more annoyed. "So ‘teasing’ is this amusing." Jiang Yin gritted her teeth, "Yes, and now, I can feel how junior sister feels. Being teased like this is really frustrating." Tang Mu Xi was thoroughly amused, "Great, then. During this time, let's thoroughly...empathize with each other." Jiang Yin sneered, "Indeed, this is the only moment a junior sister will have to flaunt." After saying these words, she turned her head away, ignoring Tang Mu Xi entirely. * There was also a teleportation array between Xin Island and the Underworld City, allowing travel between the two places in just a moment. Tang Mu Xi and Jiang Yin passed through the teleportation array and arrived in the Underworld City. Remembering Miss Han Shuang, they detoured to the City Lord's mansion. However, it was a bad time; Miss Han Shuang had gone to visit the Demon Realm and missed them completely. Helpless, they could only leave a gift and hurry westward towards the Underworld Sea. The seawater here was still dreadful, capable of corroding spiritual power. If one's power was insufficient, they would likely suffer. But Tang Mu Xi had long since ceased to be that weak Nascent Soul cultivator from years ago. Now, she had not only regained her Divine Realm powers but was also accompanied by several powerful artifacts, making her invincible. Such rain posed no threat to her at all. She took out her Bone Sword, using the Eight Trigrams Array to set up a powerful protective barrier, lightly stepping onto it. Turning her head, she saw her senior sister still silent, evidently still upset, and couldn't help but smile. "Your Majesty the Empress, would you care to join me for a leisurely ride on my sword?" Seeing no response, she pondered for a moment and changed her approach. "Senior sister, your junior sister invites you to join her." Changing from a question to a request, only then did the proud Jiang Yin give a faint nod and extend her hand. Tang Mu Xi smiled, feeling her senior sister becoming more adorable. Grasping that hand firmly, she pulled her into her embrace. Jiang Yin, never one to be in such a vulnerable position, felt entirely uncomfortable and struggled to break free. But aboard this pirate ship, there was no retreat. As soon as she moved, Tang Mu Xi held her even tighter. "Be good, senior sister, don't fuss." The moist breath whispered into her ear, sending shivers through Jiang Yin's body, making her cheeks flush red. Not wanting the person behind her to notice and mock her again, she was forced to cease her struggles. Seeing her actually quiet down, Tang Mu Xi was surprised and joyfully kissed Jiang Yin's ear, "Senior sister is so good. It was my fault earlier on Xin Island. I apologize. Stop being mad at me." Jiang Yin's heart raced from the unexpected kiss, and her ears turned crimson. Distracted, she gave a soft hum in response. Having pacified her senior sister, Tang Mu Xi felt increasingly cheerful, standing on Magic God Artifact to soar through the sky. The Underworld Sea was known for its constant rain. Before long, torrents of highly corrosive rain poured down, sizzling as it hit the barrier. The Eight Trigrams Array, being an artifact, feared no rain. Despite the downpour's erosive attempts, it remained unscathed. They moved with incredible speed, soon reaching the center of the Underworld Sea. "This should be about right?" Tang Mu Xi manipulated the Magic God Artifact to hover near a patch of seawater, with sporadic islands visible in the distance. Her memory a bit hazy, she had to rely on intuition to find a general area. Jiang Yin attempted to use spells to connect the Heavenly Soul Jade with the Soul Jade Essence. However, the torrential rain outside was relentless. The magic light from the spell vanished the moment it left the barrier, swallowed by the corrosive rain. "No, it won't work. I can't pinpoint it either," Jiang Yin frowned, looking vexed at the heavy rain above. If they wanted to use magic, they would have to wait for the rain to subside. But now, in a torrential downpour, who knew when it would stop. Tang Mu Xi pondered for a moment, then decided to take a drastic measure: "Since the magic won't work, let's force it out!" "Force it out?" Jiang Yin asked skeptically, unsure of what her junior sister intended. But, in the next moment, her junior sister showed her exactly what she meant. She stepped out, taking out the Soul Destroying Disk, drawing upon the dark clouds in the sky. With a flash of profound power, hundreds of thunderbolts rained down, striking the sea with overwhelming force.
