Chapter 1748: Chapter 1778: Second Senior Sister Ye Wushuang
“Hehehe, feeling annoyed, aren’t you? Sorry, I’m just that sharp of a character.”
Mr. Yu was smug, having anticipated his head would change places and promptly using the Law of Fate to resurrect himself; he enjoyed such tricks.
But as he laughed, he suddenly stopped. A snowy, delicate hand had silently rested on his shoulder.
“You have the courage to survive but not flee; I must say, you’re quite brave.”
Ye Wushuang’s voice drifted into his ear.
Yu Huan Shui shuddered: “How did you get here so fast?”
“How could I not rush when my junior apprentice’s attacked?”
“It’s been five hundred years. How have you been?”
Ye Wushuang pinched Yu Huan Shui’s neck like a chick and smilingly looked at Li Xiaobai to ask.
“It’s been years, but Senior Sister is just like before.”
Li Xiaobai looked at his old acquaintance, his heart filled with emotion. Senior Sister was still the same, unchanged, wearing a green silk dress, quiet and elegant.
“Though there are many things to say, now’s not the time for idle chat. Junior Brother, how did you end up in the 18th Level of Hell? Were you looking for me?”
Ye Wushuang held onto Yu Huan Shui, sat beside Li Xiaobai, and asked.
A fresh fragrance wafted over, making Li Xiaobai feel relaxed.
“Fourth Senior Brother told me Second Senior Sister might be here, so I came to find you. In the Immortal Gods Realm, Ergouzi, Sixth Senior Brother, and Fourth Senior Brother have all successfully escaped now.”
Li Xiaobai said.
He carefully examined Ye Wushuang, perfectly matching his memory without any change.
Not only was her appearance unchanged, but even her attire hadn’t differed.
“Old Four is out too?”
Ye Wushuang raised her brows in surprise.
“He was trapped inside a tree, and I dug him out.”
“Where is he now? Why didn’t he come with you?”
“He’s remotely directing from inside my head.”
Li Xiaobai pointed at his forehead, and Yang Chen had stopped speaking since Ye Wushuang appeared.
Now exposed, he had no choice but to call out reluctantly: “Second Senior Sister, I’ve missed you terribly.”
“Old Four’s quite the strategist; commanding Junior Brother from afar to seek me safely.”
Ye Wushuang smiled knowingly.
“Senior Sister, why say so? We’re family; Junior Brother did this to temper Junior Brother as well. See how perfectly he handled things.”
Yang Chen said awkwardly.
“I’ll deal with you later. Where’s Old Six, and why’s that broken dog sticking together with him?”
Ye Wushuang’s eyes suddenly shot with killing intent, coldly asking.
“Uh, Sixth Senior Brother and Ergou stayed in the western Pure Land battling the Buddha Lord.”
“What exactly happened back then? I saw several Senior Brothers captured by the Immortal Gods; why are they unharmed, and why do you all call Sixth Senior Brother a traitor?”
Li Xiaobai asked, knowing it was taboo to question but unable to resist.
“Matters from back then can’t be mentioned; only First Senior Sister can speak freely. Our words will be automatically silenced by a higher power.”
“But the matter with Old Six I can tell you; Old Six deserted on the eve of our final battle, leaving only half his cultivation as a clone to fight. Because of him, our human race’s crucial battlefield was breached, countless experts died!”
“Even the Human Progenitor was shattered.”
Talking of this, Ye Wushuang gritted her teeth, her face frosted with anger.
Li Xiaobai silently mourned for Sixth Senior Brother; Liu Jinshui had mentioned it. Feeling no chance of victory back then, he advised Su Yunbing and others without success, ultimately deciding to preserve himself for future reckoning.
“Who’s the Human Progenitor?”
“It’s secretive; you’ll meet them someday, but it’s fortunate to reunite today; we must leave quickly. I’ve deep ties with this damned place; don’t worry about me anymore.”
Ye Wushuang slowly spoke.
She was trapped in the Eighteen Layers of Hell, unable to escape.
Yang Chen’s voice sounded: “The Second Senior Sister you’re seeing is just a projection. The real body is likely trapped elsewhere within this level.”
Li Xiaobai pondered for a moment, then said, “Senior Sister, is your real body trapped? I remember Mr. Yu here just saying he knows where your real body is. Since we’re here, why not let Junior Brother give it a try.”
With surprise in her eyes, Ye Wushuang asked, “Is that true? Even I don’t know the exact location where I’m trapped, and once thought my real body might not even be in the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Can you truly find me?”
“I… um…”
“Actually, I’m just bluffing, saying things casually…”
Yu Huan Shui nearly cried; this guy named Li Xiaobai was genuinely bad, confronting him now wouldn’t leave him intact.
Ye Wushuang nodded, starting to twist his head again: “No problem, I’ll open up your head and know your memory.”
“No, no, I’ll talk, I’ll talk, just have some vague information…”
“Immortal, spare me and I’ll lead your Junior Brother to find you.”
Yu Huan Shui trembled, imagining the terrifying strength of Ye Wushuang in full power, realizing she was just a projection now. Her released true self could surely wrack the Netherworld.
But wrecking the Netherworld seemed like a good thing; he’d be free.
“Let’s go.”
Ye Wushuang picked Yu Huan Shui up and stepped outside.
This Senior Sister was gentle only to Li Xiaobai.
Yu Huan Shui’s cheeks lifted pages, and with pen and ink, he wrote a line of small characters: “Restore previous erased memory, locate Ye Wushuang’s real body.”
“Seems it’s not the first time seeking me.”
Ye Wushuang glanced at the pages, seeing another line: “Memory retained only up to knowing Ye Wushuang’s hiding place.”
This guy skillfully erased related memories after finding her location.
Li Xiaobai was dumbfounded, gaining deeper knowledge of the Law of Fate’s capability, astonished it could reload memories.
“The Law of Fate is terrifying; like time and space, it’s a special law not easily comprehended.”
In his mind, Yang Chen spoke.
Curious, Li Xiaobai asked: “What’s Fourth Senior Brother’s law?”
“Better left unsaid…”
Fourth Senior Brother, the show-off, wouldn’t likely reveal anything useful.
“And the two Senior Sisters?”
“First Senior Sister practices the Law of Power; Second Senior Sister, the Law of Reincarnation.”
Yang Chen stated: “Reincarnation governs life and death, but First Senior Sister’s power is more terrifying, massive enough to shatter space-time.”
Intrigued, Li Xiaobai wondered which law he’d comprehend in the Immortal Gods Realm someday.
“Why are you dawdling? Reveal the memory; I’ll search myself.”
Ahead, Ye Wushuang felt Yu Huan Shui’s actions too slow and grabbed his head to read the text.
“Immortal, memory recovery takes time…”
Yu Huan Shui suffered internally but didn’t voice it.
Ye Wushuang waves a grand gesture: “Law of Fate, indeed. I’ll use the power of reincarnation to inscribe a rule, able to backtrack your memories from three hundred years ago.”
