Chapter Fifty-Seven: Do Not Linger in Battle
if you have any other text you'd like translated!Some people are beautiful in appearance, some in their bone structure, and some in their facial features.She suddenly remembered that this genius named...Qu Shunhua stood on the back of the vast Garuda in the agency, feeling the wind from the Shanhai realm blowing in his face.
Mysterious, magnificent, and ancient, these are the unique charms of this realm.
>
Clouds, blue sea, floating mountains, everything is receding at high speed.
She likes this kind of romantic freedom.
If you want to hate, go ahead and hate. If you want to love, don't hold back.
Long or short, it is a lifetime.
How to live, only ask yourself how to be happy.
>
Of all the strong women in the world, she admires Qi Xiao the most.
Qi Xiao laughs not, a smile must kill.
But in the world, there is no one who cannot be killed.
Live a life of carefree joy, never minding what others say.
Having taken control from the Xia Chi Army in the hands of the Qi family, Shengsheng has been stationed on Jue Ming Island for many years, striking fear into those near and far.
>
“No one has ever been able to restrict Qixiào, Qixiào is only loyal to themselves.”
She couldn't become Qi Xiao.
The Qu family is too ancient, too powerful.
But she also needs to have the maximum freedom within limits.
She likes Zuo Guangshu, she is open and honest, building a floor for him, climbing through his window at night, getting into his carriage on the way, holding his hand everywhere she goes, not afraid of anyone in the world knowing.
After Zuo Guang's death, she especially needed to do so, regardless of what voices there were within the Qu family.
The Shan Hai Jing is a place that fascinates her greatly.
All the rules of this world seem to no longer apply here.

And all the magnificent imaginings, they were transformed into reality.
“Master Yue!” she shouted in the wind, “If you could, would you stay here forever”
“I don’t want to.” Yue Tiannu calmly said, “My path isn’t here.”
A little disappointed, but this is just the way of life for a slave under the moon... Qu Shunhua thought.
At a certain moment, a blinding flash of lightning appeared.
It was a colossal bolt of lightning that stretched from heaven to earth, bursting forth with blinding brilliance and spreading at an incredibly terrifying speed—so fast it was impossible to dodge.

The world was vast and empty, a deafening roar in my ears, as if I had fallen into the realm of death.
Qu Shunhua still had his arms wide open, as if embracing the lightning.
In such a terrifying moment, I did nothing and left everything to my teammates to deal with.
What a kind of trust is this
And Master Yue certainly did not disappoint such trust.
Under such extreme circumstances, they still reacted first, as if they had never experienced the trauma that Qu Shunhua had endured.
Even as the thunder first roared, she stepped forward, shielding Qiu Shunhua behind her.
>
At that time, the electric light pulled across the sky, a dazzling brightness like a blade, as if it had split the sky into many pieces.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
But the real threat was still the expanding wall of lightning, sweeping everything away and covering the sky and sea.
It's unclear what possessed the Qilin Ox, but it seems determined to eradicate this entire sea!
The mechanism Garuda suddenly surged upwards in the sky. Its golden wings swiftly closed, overlapping to form a barrier before it, like layers upon layers of sharp blades, with the determination to cleave through lightning and thunder. Atop its head, the wishful jewel resembling a fleshy tumor radiated with golden light.
A semi-circular golden shield of light formed ahead.
...Just in time to block the lightning curtain that had spread this far.
Yikes!
The golden arc-shaped shield couldn't hold for even a breath, shattering instantly. The golden wings of the mechanical Garuda also fell apart piece by piece amidst agonizing struggles.
Beneath the shattered glyphs, there was revealed a material that wasn't metal or wood...
Destruction is at hand.
And Qu Shunhua also regained her vision and hearing at this moment.
I saw the lightning flash in all directions and heard the thunder roar like a heavenly drum.
But she still did nothing, merely standing silently on the back of the Garuda, her gaze fixed upon the lightning curtain that was mere steps away.
Getting closer, getting closer...
At this very moment, Master Yue extended a hand.
Her sleeves fell, and her hands were also very standard women's hands, just with a brassy sheen.
Five fingers tapped rapidly and steadily on something. There was a strange feeling—as if she were communicating with the lightning itself.
...to be continued.
Her hand continued forward, pressing directly into the terrifying curtain of lightning.
Sizzle.
The entire wrist of this hand vanished in the lightning in an instant!
No flesh, no bone.
was almost completely destroyed.
However, at the same time, the raging lightning suddenly calmed down a great deal, and even had a kind of gentle feeling. In the midst of the lightning's fury, a hint of warmth and holiness appeared.
The bolt of lightning sliced through the air without hesitation.
Passing through Master Yue's slender arm, then his shoulder, and his whole body... yet causing no harm whatsoever.
It drifted silently past the gigantic Garuda machine.
Chih-Shun Hua, standing behind Master Yue, felt even a mere sliver of... something so light, more delicate than the breeze.
And this sky-splitting, sea-spanning curtain of lightning, outside its reach, was still raging, with bolts of thunder dancing wildly, still thrumming with the urge to destroy.
It seems like a unique space, gently tamed.
What an amazing sight!

The rumbling thunder retreated quickly along with the flashes of lightning.
The wingless Garuda, a mechanical being, floated in the air, looking particularly clumsy and pitiful.
Master Yue, however, took his time drawing a hand from the storage box. With extreme calmness, he placed it upon the stump of his missing limb.
After a slight tremor of Dao Yuan, her left hand moved away, but her right hand had already fully returned to normal, even gracefully forming several Dao seals.
Then, she took out another storage box, opened it, and with a flick of her hand, a saw, plane, axe, hammer, ruler... a dazzling array of tools and materials, hung in the air densely and orderly.
All were stopped in the most convenient place for her.
>
It seems like they're going to repair this Garuda statue right here.
He was a high disciple of the Xinyue Monastery, a Buddhist monk with a clear foundation, yet he was so proficient in Mohist techniques. It was truly puzzling.
But Qu Shunhua and Yue Chan Master's familiarity was obviously different, at this moment there was no surprise, just looked forward for a while, suddenly said: "Someone is coming!"
>
Master Yue with a casual wave of his hand, gathered all the tools and materials, then closed the storage box.
Standing on the back of this suspended Garuda automaton, he and Qu Shunhua looked forward together.

The disgraced Zhongli Yan, along with Fan Wujue, was flying at high speed.
Zhongli Yan's martial uniform was obviously newly changed, and the quality was visibly poor. Under the intermittent flashes of lightning, it seemed like it might disintegrate at any moment.
Perhaps it wouldn't be quite right to describe Zhongli Yan as haggard and disheveled, because his face was clearly cleaned meticulously, with no trace of dirt.
But his whole body, from head to toe, was constantly sparking.
Just now, that terrifying lightning damage... he probably didn't dodge even a bit.

Meanwhile, Fan Wujue beside him was much more carefree. His attire was neat and tidy, and he still lightly fanned himself with a folding fan. The only sign of his age was a touch of frost that hadn't melted from the corners of his temples.
As soon as Qu Shunhua saw them, they also noticed the dilapidated automaton Garuda and the two people on it.
Originally intimidated by the power of the qilin ox and already resigned to reality, preparing to leave, Zhongli Yan suddenly clenched his twin swords: "Sister Shunhua, leave me Xī Wǎng Rì, my brother will spare you this time. Otherwise, I'll have to take my leave!"
In Qu Shunhua's hands lay the Jiuzhang Jade Tablet. The poem etched upon it was titled "Cherishing Past Days."
Without the Jiuzhang Jade Bi, nothing obtained in the Shan Hai Realm can be taken away. Losing the Jiuzhang Jade Bi at this time means losing the possibility of gaining anything from the Shan Hai Realm.
But if Zhongli Yan doesn't strike, then she still has the possibility of plundering other people's jade bi.
If you are killed at this moment, it will be a direct departure, losing 30% of your soul essence and gaining nothing.
According to Zhongli Yan's logic, he did indeed "spare him this time."
However, Qu Shunhua apparently disagreed.
“A toad gaping! Such bold breath!” Qu Shunhua didn’t yield, but instead leapt directly from the mechanism Garuda. Her silken robe billowed in the wind as she charged towards Zhongli Yan: “I’ll kill you first, then take your *She Jiang*!”
Master Yue remained silent, his steps trailing behind her.
Here, Fan Wuji also immediately pinched the formula to create a protective barrier for Zhongli Yan.
Zhongli Yan's aura of lightning hadn't dissipated, and he didn't try to hide it.
For his opponent, this is indeed the best chance. He has been weakened considerably and is not in peak condition, needing to constantly expel lightning from within him.
He admitted that Qu Shunhua was very decisive in seizing the opportunity and very courageous.
But his martial arts cultivation at the twenty-fold level was still far from that of a practitioner in the Inner Palace Realm, and these things couldn't bridge that gap.

The terrifying power surged within, like a volcano erupting suddenly, instantly suppressing those invading electrical lights, leaving them in the corners of the muscles, waiting to be dealt with again after the battle.
Blood surged like a river, roaring and surging. Muscles clashed against each other, booming like rocks colliding. At this moment, Zhong Liyan completely let go of himself, his powerful blood qi bursting from the heavens, straight up to the clouds!
Then don't blame me for being ruthless—
Whoops!
Right in front of him, a water dragon with sharp scales on its back and four claws on its belly surged out of the sea. Its fangs were bared, and it charged toward him with deadly intent.

The seawater also suddenly became violent, roaring thunderously, with waves rising and quickly gathering around.
"Big Brother Jiang, kill him!" Zuo Guangshu's voice, filled with fury, followed closely.
Zhongli Yan turned around without hesitation, his surging qi and blood dispersed like smoke, his figure moved like electricity, disappearing into thin air, leaving only a sentence: "Fan Wujue, don't linger in battle!"
Facing Jiang Wang, Zuo Guangshu alone, or Qu Shunhua and Yue Tiannu together, he was very confident.
Even if he was extremely confident, he wouldn't believe that he could withstand the combined might of these four people. Their brief encounter earlier had already made it clear that even just facing Jiang Wang alone wasn't something he could resolve in a short time.
It's okay to act decisively and strategically retreat. There's no shame in that. Zhongli Yan might be a fierce fighter, but he's not stupid either.
There's no need to try a battle you're sure to lose.
I was afraid that Fan Wujue wasn't very smart and couldn't think of it for a while, taking what he usually boasted as true. So I quickly reminded him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But upon looking up, wasn't that figure with billowing sleeves none other than Fan Wujue
This guy even started running the moment he felt the water dragon. He ran fast and steady, actually outrunning this martial artist at level twenty...
“You, how come you’re flying so fast!” Zhongli Yan questioned as he flew, his tone laced with annoyance.
Fan Wu Shu didn't even turn back, confidently stating: "If I don't run faster, how could I possibly outrun you"
Zhong Liyan angrily said, "What if I didn't run What should I do if I fight them!"
“Then I’ll burn incense for you during festivals.”

The two of them ran for hundreds of miles, one after the other, before finally shaking off their pursuers. When they looked at each other, both felt a sense of relief.
> Just thinking about what just happened, Zhongli Yan can't help but feel regret for having made a bad friend.
But before he could open his mouth to denounce them, Fan Wujue had already jumped in with a furious shout: “They didn’t even have the courtesy to give us a heads-up before teaming up What despicable villains!”
>
“Zuo Guangshu and Qu Shunhua have been engaged since childhood, they are already a team.” Zhong Liyan rolled his eyes and then frantically made excuses for himself: “Otherwise, do you think why I would run I could have defeated them all! Mainly because they grew up together and have perfect understanding, while my state is not perfect…”
Fan Wujiu didn't know whether to believe it or not, but he was furious. "Damn it! In a place like the Shan Hai Realm where everyone relies on themselves, they actually form cliques and use their connections to get in! It's shameless! Utterly shameless!"
Then he turned his head to look at Zhongli Yan: "Brother Zhongli, do you have any friends You might as well contact them. Let's join forces and go back to deal with them! We must let them know that we are not the only ones who have people!"
Zhong Li Yan let out a cold snort, his imposing manner radiating as he declared: "I, Zhong Li Yan, a man of seven feet tall, do not believe in heaven nor fate. I rely only on my iron fists and sword!"
"You have no friends in Chu, is that what you mean" Fan Wujiu glanced at him, saying softly.
>
Zhongli Yan snorted again: "Not impossible, just beneath me!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Fan Wushu pressed his forehead in pain and turned to ask, "Of those who entered the Sea of Mountains this time, are there any with slightly normal minds, someone we could cooperate with"
Seeing Zhong Li remained silent for half a day, I couldn't help but ask, "Is there any conflict"
Zhongli roared in anger, "I should have put you at the front to take the lightning strike earlier!"
Here is the English translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Just as that terrifying bolt of lightning rapidly expanded, it was indeed Zhongli Yan who stood alone at the front, single-handedly blocking all the damage.
Fan Wushu hid behind him, so he remained unharmed.
I'm a bit embarrassed now, so I softened my tone and said: "Since we can't find anyone to team up with, what are your plans next"
Zhong Liyan clearly had this planned out beforehand, and without hesitation, he said: "First, we cut down Dou Zhao, then Jiang Wang, next Wu Ling, followed by Zuo Guangshu, and immediately after that, Xiang Bei..."
>
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Fan Wujue hurriedly stopped him, asking in an almost suggestive tone: "I'm asking about your plan! Your scheme! Do you understand What was your original plan"
It means, give up on that idea, quickly change your thinking, and think about the true mystery of Huang Wei's divine presence.
Unfortunately, Zhongli Yan didn't seem to understand. He honestly said: "First, we kill Dou Zhao, then Wu Ling, next Xiang Bei, then Zuo Guangshu, and finally Qu Shunhua..."
This is a continuation of the previous line. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Wait a minute, wait a moment!
Fan Wujue's brow furrowed into a '川' character. Along with this Zhongli fellow, this trip to the Shan Hai Realm was just to recklessly hack people
"I'm rather curious," Fan Wujue chuckled, a hint of calmness replacing the anger. "Why is Jiang Wang so high on your chopping block list He didn't seem to have time to make a move just now."
Zhong Li roared in fury, "If not for that Jiang fellow just now, would I have escaped!"
That's pretty good at prioritizing!
Fan Wu Shu covered his face with his hands, speechless for a long time.
... until...
Zhong Li Yan suddenly pulled him behind him.
The heavy sword slashed out, blocking a sharp claw as it came.
At this moment of clashing claws, Zhongli Yan and Fan Wushu only had a brief glimpse of the target's appearance.
It was a strange bird, shaped like a raven, with green eyes and a red beak.
With a mere flutter of its wings, it vanished from sight.
Then came the clatter, a frenzied clash of metal, like a plucked lute string, echoing around Fan Wujue!
"What the heck is our luck"
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Fan Wujue's mind flashed with the thought, might as well freeze himself and turn into an ice sculpture right here.
>
To alleviate the pressure of protecting against Bell's palsy.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Beyond the ice sculpture, a further frost descends, to slow the pace of that strange bird.
There is a terrifying creature in the heavens, called Shi-ya. It has green eyes, a red beak, moves with incredible speed, and is unseen until it strikes. It devours human skulls. — Shan Hai Yi Shou Zhi
Over the sea, ravaged by lightning, the two peerless prodigies stood with swords drawn, neither yielding to the other, a great battle about to erupt.
The young master of the Great Chu appeared in this very situation, wearing a light blue smoke armor and a fluttering robe. He rode the water and waves, coming from afar with a single gesture, summoning a majestic water dragon that danced out to sea, scaring Zhongli Yan and Fan Wu into scrambling for cover…
Truly a hero! With a certain heroic spirit of rescuing beauty!
The only thing that's a little out of place is...
Not only did Qu Shunhua, the rescued "beauty", not wait there pitifully for the hero with doe eyes, but she furiously chased Zhongli Yan for dozens of miles.

Seeing Zhongli Yan run as fast as he could, practically slipping away on his feet, there was no way to catch him. I could only give up in frustration.

Zu Guangshu suddenly felt that he might have saved Zhongli Yan.
There, Qu Shunhua turned back, a deep blue smoke billowing from her body, making her already stunning beauty even more striking. She had also donned her Wu Yu Yanjia armor, facing Left Guangshu and Jiang Wang.
