yù shǒu yī fú ， yī xiǎo qiǎo de yù huán bèi jì dào le kōng qì zhōng ， zào xíng gǔ piáo ． kàn shàng qù xiàng shì nǚ zǐ suí shēn pèi dài de shǒu zhuó 。[]
玉手一拂，一小巧的玉环被祭到了空气中，造型古朴．看上去像是女子随身佩戴的手镯。[]
With a gentle wave of her delicate fingers, a small jade ring appeared in the air. Its design was simple and ancient, resembling a bracelet one might wear.
biǎo miàn shàng ， bìng bù xiàng shén me dà wēi lì de bǎo wù ． dàn lín xuān xīn lǐ qīng chǔ ． zhè cì líng huán gǔ bǎo fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
表面上，并不像什么大威力的宝物．但林轩心里清楚．这刺灵环古宝非同小可。
At first glance, it didn't seem like a powerful artifact. But Lin Xuan knew better; this Zhen Ling Ring was no ordinary treasure.
rú guǒ zì yǐ yě shì yuán yīng hòu qī ． dào bù kě qīng dí 。
如果自已也是元婴后期．倒不可轻敌。
If he were only at the late婴 stage, he wouldn’t underestimate it. However, now there was nothing to worry about.
rán ér xiàn zài ， què méi yǒu shén me hǎo dān xīn dì 。
然而现在，却没有什么好担心地。
"True Lady, you refuse to submit. You should know that whether you run or fight, you have no chance," Lin Xuan said coldly as his gaze swept over Red Silk's face.
“ xiān zi zhēn bù kěn shù shǒu jiù fù ． nǐ yīng gāi xīn lǐ qīng chǔ ． bù guǎn táo zǒu hái shì qǔ shèng ． dōu bàn diǎn jī huì yě wú 。” lín xuān mù guāng zài hóng líng qiào liǎn shàng sǎo guò ， lěng lěng de kāi kǒu le 。
“仙子真不肯束手就缚．你应该心里清楚．不管逃走还是取胜．都半点机会也无。”林轩目光在红绫俏脸上扫过，冷冷的开口了。
Thinking of how he had been chased and forced to flee in the past, a sense of revenge filled him.
xiǎng xiǎng dāng chū ， zì jǐ bèi duì fāng zhuī dé dōng duǒ xī cáng de qū rǔ ， xīn zhōng yī gǔ fù chóu de kuài yì yóu rán ér qǐ le 。
想想当初，自己被对方追得东躲西藏的屈辱，心中一股复仇的快意油然而起了。
Survival of the fittest was an unchanging rule in the cultivation world. From being a helpless fish, she could now control others' destinies.
ruò ròu qiáng shí ， cǐ nǎi xiū xiān jiè héng gǔ bù biàn de qí lǐ 。
弱肉强食，此乃修仙界恒古不变的其理。
Facing Lihe alone, Lin Xuan didn't show any signs of hesitation. Shoulder trembling slightly, he took a step to his left, using Nine Heaven Microsteps.
xī rì rèn rén zǎi gē de yú ròu ， rú jīn yě néng biàn chéng zhǎng kòng bié rén mìng yùn de dāo zǔ 。
昔日任人宰割的鱼肉，如今也能变成掌控别人命运的刀俎。
His figure blurred as the fine needles shot past where he had just stood, hitting only his shadow.
dú zì miàn duì lí hé ． rú guǒ huàn yí gè rén kǒng pà yǐ hún shēn fā dǒu ． zài méi yǒu gǔ qì yì diǎn de ． duō bàn yǐ guì xià kē tóu 。
独自面对离合．如果换一个人恐怕已浑身发抖．再没有骨气一点的．多半已跪下磕头。
"Not bad, not bad," Lin Xuan said with a smile. "A True Lady at the late婴 stage can still have such strength, which is truly astonishing. Let me ask one more time: Would you submit? Although you offended me in the past, I am no miser. If you sign a master-servant blood contract with me, I will spare your life. Otherwise, do you really want to endure the torment of soul extraction?"
rán ér hóng líng què bù yí yàng de ． yǔ qí qū rǔ de huó zhe ， tā qíng yuàn xuǎn zé hōng hōng liè liè de yǔn luò 。
然而红绫却不一样的．与其屈辱的活着，她情愿选择轰轰烈烈的陨落。
The mention of "soul extraction" made Red Silk's face pale.
gāo yí gè jìng jiè yòu rú hé ． néng gòu zhǎng kòng tiān dì yuán qì yòu zěn me ． shì kě shā ． bù kě rǔ ， zì jǐ tóng yàng gǎn yǔ tā pīn le 。
高一个境界又如何．能够掌控天地元气又怎么．士可杀．不可辱，自己同样敢与他拼了。
Her eyes filled with deep fear as she knew what that entailed—a suffering far worse than even the most brutal execution in the mortal world.
duì yú mǒ xuān de jǐng gào shì ruò wú là ． shuāng shǒu yī wò ． měi mù zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jué jué zhī sè ， zhāng kāi tán kǒu ． yī dào jīng qì pēn tǔ ér chū 。
对于抹轩的警告视若无腊．双手一握．美目中闪过一丝决绝之色，张开檀口．一道精气喷吐而出。
But her fear was fleeting, replaced by determination. She raised her chin and stared at Lin Xuan firmly: "What does Lihe matter? I offended you before, but now your power has grown. You want to humiliate me and make me a servant? Just dream about it."
“ bō ……
“啵……
Her voice was clear and crisp, yet it carried an aura of ruthlessness.
yī shēng qīng xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ． cì líng huán xī shōu zhǔ rén de běn mìng zhēn yuán yǐ hòu ， dī liū liū de xuán zhuǎn ， páng bó de líng lì yǒu rú bō wén bān xiàng zhe sì zhōu kuò sàn 。
一声轻响传入耳朵．刺灵环吸收主人的本命真元以后，滴溜溜的旋转，磅礴的灵力有如波纹般向着四周扩散。
Lin Xuan was taken aback but surprisingly didn't get angry; instead, his expression became somewhat strange.
ruò bú shì yǐ qián céng qīn yǎn mù dǔ ， jiē xià lái de biàn huà lín xuān kěn dìng huì dà jīng shī sè 。
若不是以前曾亲眼目睹，接下来的变化林轩肯定会大惊失色。
In the depths of Quan Yin Mountain, there had been a stubborn and beautiful woman who faced disturbances without any fear. Even facing powerful beasts, she never retreated. She preferred to die with pride rather than beg for mercy.
yīn wèi nà bǎo wù jìng rán huàn huà chū le yī zhāng měi rén de liǎn kǒng 。
因为那宝物竞然幻化出了一张美人的脸孔。
The scene from a hundred years ago was so similar to this moment.
yīng tiāo xiǎo zuǐ ． yáo bí tǐng zhí ． pèi yǐ jiān jiān de xià lǐng ． què shí shì yī wèi jué sè jiā rén de róng yán 。
樱挑小嘴．瑶鼻挺直．配以尖尖的下领．确实是一位绝色佳人的容颜。
Thinking about his wife far away, Lin Xuan's face softened slightly. The cold killing intent seemed to be diluted by warmth.
píng xīn lái shuō ， zhè bǎo wù hái zhēn i jǐ fēn tè sè ． lín xuān yǐ bìng bù dǒng ， rú jīn xiū wèi bù tóng ． zé yǐn yǐn kàn chū jǐ fēn mén dào lái le 。
平心来说，这宝物还真i几分特色．林轩以并不懂，如今修为不同．则隐隐看出几分门道来了。
But Red Silk had no time to notice these changes. Relieved that Lin Xuan wasn't rushing into action, she raised her hands and drew strange patterns in the air, reciting ancient and mysterious incantations.
dào bèi shuāng shǒu ， bìng bù jí yú jiāng cǐ nǚ qín huò 。
倒背双手，并不急于将此女擒获。
The sound was bizarre, filled with a primitive and wild essence.
lín xuān rú cǐ zài dà ． hóng líng qiú zhī bù dé ． bì jìng gāo shǒu guò kuò ， zhǐ zhēng lí háo ． dòu fǎ de shí hòu 、 měi yī xī de shí jiān dōu hěn zhòng yào 。
林轩如此在大．红绫求之不得．毕竞高手过括，只争厘毫．斗法的时候、每一息的时间都很重要。
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted as he recognized this as some kind of secret technique, something even his vast knowledge couldn’t identify.
“ jí ！”
“疾！”
If it were any other time, Lin Xuan would have stopped her from casting spells calmly. But now that he had reached the Lihe stage, he was more interested in observing.
hóng líng yī shēng qīng chì ， tóng shí hán shǒu tái qǐ ． yī zhǐ shì yuán shí jí de xiàng kào fāng de měi rén liǎn diǎn qù 。
红绫一声轻叱，同时函手抬起．一指似援实急的像靠方的美人脸点去。
After all, with his abilities and various treasures, a late婴 cultivator wouldn't be able to turn the tables on him, right?
yī shǎn ！
一闪！
Although it seemed arrogant, Lin Xuan knew better than to make such mistakes after experiencing so much. His confidence was based on absolute certainty.
rú tóng jìng huā shuǐ yuè bān ， nà liǎn kāi shǐ mó hú ． suí jí fēn lí chū sì gè ， fēn bié wéi rào zài hóng líng de yāo jiān 。
如同镜花水月般，那脸开始模糊．随即分离出四个，分别围绕在红绫的腰间。
As Red Silk acted, an unbelievable scene unfolded. She opened her mouth and shot out a one-foot-long ray of energy around her left hand, slicing through the white wrist and leaving a two-inch-long wound.
fēi wǔ xuán zhuǎn ， suí hòu měi rén zhāng kāi tán kǒu ， xiù qiǎo de xiāng shé xiàng shàng yī gōu ， lì máng shǎn shuò ， wú shù hóng líng de niú máo xì zhēn cóng lǐ miàn pēn tǔ chū lái 。
飞舞旋转，随后美人张开檀口，秀巧的香舌向上一勾，厉芒闪烁，无数红绫的牛毛细针从里面喷吐出来。
The bright red blood flowed down with the wind, but there was no stench of death; instead, it carried a sweet scent.
lín xuān yuán běn shén sè cóng róng ， kě jiàn le cǐ mù ， biǎo qíng yě bù yóu de yǒu xiē níng zhòng ， shén niàn wēi dòng ． tiān dì yuán qì fēng kuáng de huì jù ， yī shàng jiān xià fāng de dùn pái chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
林轩原本神色从容，可见了此募，表情也不由得有些凝重，神念微动．天地元气疯狂的汇聚，一上尖下方的盾牌出现在了视线里。
Red Silk's face showed no signs of pain. She raised her hand and lightly tapped the air, creating a fist-sized blood-colored rune that quickly shrank and vanished into her forehead.
chī chī de pò kōng shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， nà niú máo xì zhēn rú shǎn diàn jīng xuè ． qǐng kè zhī jiān jiù lái dào yǎn qián le 。
嗤嗤的破空声传入耳朵，那牛毛细针如闪电惊血．顷刻之间就来到眼前了。
She then stretched and lifted her head as a beam of light shot out from the sky, entering the blood rune on her forehead.
shù yǐ qiān jì de xì zhēn huì jù chéng yī dào hóng liú ． hěn hěn de yǔ dùn pái biǎo miàn xiàng chù ． bù kě sī yì de yí mù chū xiàn le 。
数以千计的细针汇聚成一道洪流．狠狠的与盾牌表面相触．不可思议的一幕出现了。
The aura around Red Silk suddenly intensified.
dùn pái jū rán bèi dǎ chū liǎo wú shù de xiǎo kǒng 。
盾牌居然被打出了无数的小孔。
"Impossible..."
yòng tiān dì yuán qì bù xià shì fáng yù méi yòng 。
用天地元气布下势防御没用。
Lin Xuan was stunned. He finally understood what Red Silk was doing, but how could that be possible?
bù kě néng ！
不可能！
Martial arts techniques were imitations of ancient demons' secrets, so some powerful spells allowed practitioners to summon demonic energy and enhance their power significantly during battles.
lín xuān yě bù yóu de liú lù chū jǐ fēn yà rán zhī sè ， tā yì bú shì méi yǒu yǔ dà xiū shì jiāo guò shǒu ， yuán yīng hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě ， sǐ zài tā shǒu shàng de yě yǒu hěn duō 。
林轩也不由得流露出几分讶然之色，他义不是没有与大修士交过手，元婴后期的修仙者，死在他手上的也有很多。
However, the source of this energy wasn't related to demon cultivation; it was clearly a Daoist technique. How could she summon demonic energy?
biàn shì wàn fú zōng zhī zhǔ ， yě bù yí dìng yǒu zhè yàng de shén tōng 。
便是万佛宗之主，也不一定有这样的神通。
Impossible!
bù guò yà rán guò hòu ， zǐ xì xiǎng xiǎng dào yě bìng bù jí qí ． zhè hóng líng kě bú shì pǔ tōng de xiū xiān zhě ． tā shì shàng gǔ shí qī de nǚ xiū ， zhǐ bù guò yuán yīng bèi bīng fēng ． suǒ yǐ cái jī yuán qiǎo hé ， yì zhí huó dào xiàn zài le 。
不过讶然过后，仔细想想倒也并不藉奇．这红绫可不是普通的修仙者．她是上古时期的女修，只不过元婴被冰封．所以才机缘巧合，一直活到现在了。
But Lin Xuan didn't intend to think about it further. He wasn't overconfident; he just wanted to see how things would unfold. However, the situation had taken an unexpected turn.
ér jù zì jǐ suǒ zhī ． zài shàng gǔ zhī shí ． xiū xiān jiè kě yuǎn bǐ xiàn zài fán róng ， bù zhěn gōng fǎ hái shì bǎo wù ． dōu shèng guò rú jīn xǔ duō ， hóng líng jìn jiē hòu qī yǐ hòu ． shí lì yuǎn chāo tóng jiē xiū xiān zhě yě bù xī qí de 。
而据自己所知．在上古之时．修仙界可远比现在繁荣，不诊功法还是宝物．都胜过如今许多，红绫进阶后期以后．实力远超同阶修仙者也不稀奇的。
With demonic energy, Red Silk's strength had surged and was still increasing. Although she couldn’t match him, Lin Xuan decided not to wait any longer. If they were lucky enough, it could be a disaster.
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ． dàn lín xuān de dòng zuò què yì diǎn yě bù màn ， jiān tóu wēi dǒu ． yǐ xiàng zuǒ kuà chū ． jiǔ tiān wēi bù 。
脑海中念头转过．但林轩的动作却一点也不慢，肩头微抖．已向左跨出．九天微步。
Better safe than sorry; he needed to capture her first.
shēn xíng yī zhèn mó hú ． nà niú máo xì zhēn zài tā gāng gāng suǒ zhàn lì zhī chù lüè guò ． rán ér dǎ zhòng de jǐn jǐn shì cán yǐng bà le 。
身形一阵模糊．那牛毛细针在他刚刚所站立之处掠过．然而打中的仅仅是残影罢了。
With a wave of his sleeves, the Nine Heaven Bright Moon Ring flew out and hovered in front of him. Using a treasure against such an opponent showed how formidable Red Silk truly was.
“ bù cuò ． bù cuò 。” lín xuān fǔ zhǎng ér xiào ：“ xiān zi bù guò yuán yīng hòu qī ， yǒu zhè yàng de shí lì dào zhēn de lìng rén jīng qí ． wǒ zài wèn yī jù ． nǐ kě yuàn shù shǒu jiù fù ， nǐ yǐ qián suī rán dé zuì guò wǒ ． dàn lín mǒu bú shì xiǎo qì de rén wù ， nǐ zhǐ yào yuàn yì yǔ lín mǒu qiān xià zhǔ pú xuè qì ， wǒ ráo mèi yī mìng ． yě wèi cháng bù kě 、 fǒu zé xiān zi zhēn xiǎng shòu nà chōu hún zhī kǔ me ？”
“不错．不错。”林轩抚掌而笑：“仙子不过元婴后期，有这样的实力倒真的令人惊奇．我再问一句．你可愿束手就缚，你以前虽然得罪过我．但林某不是小气的人物，你只要愿意与林某签下主仆血契，我饶妹一命．也未尝不可、否则仙子真想受那抽魂之苦么？”
Lin Xuan gripped his hands as he prepared to unleash his power when suddenly, something unexpected happened.
tīng jiàn tóu hún liǎng gè zì ， hóng líng yě liǎn bái rú zhǐ 。
听见投魂两个字，红绫也脸白如纸。
"Ahh!"
yǎn zhēng zhī zhōng ． shǎn guò shēn qiè de wèi jù zhī sè ， nà tòng kǔ ． biàn shì shì sú de líng chí zhī xíng yě yuǎn yuǎn wú fǎ xiàng bǐ de 。
眼睁之中．闪过深切的畏惧之色，那痛苦．便是世俗的凌迟之刑也远远无法相比的。
A cry filled with pain echoed, followed by Red Silk's entire body trembling violently. She clutched her abdomen, her facial expression contorted in agony.
dàn wèi jù zhī sè jǐn jǐn yī shǎn ér guò ． suí hòu jiù bèi jiān dìng suǒ dài tì le ． qǔ ér dài zhī shì mǎn liǎn de jué rán ． yáng qǐ zhēn xiào ． zhí shì zhe lín xuān de shuāng mù ：“ lí hé yòu rú hé ． yǐ qián wǒ dé zuì guò mèi ， rú jīn gé xià xiū wèi dà jìn ， jiù xiǎng yào xiū rǔ hóng líng ． wèi nú wèi bài ． nǐ yī yī zuò mèng ~”
但畏惧之色仅仅一闪而过．随后就被坚定所代替了．取而代之是满脸的绝然．扬起臻孝．直视着林轩的双目：“离合又如何．以前我得罪过妹，如今阁下修为大进，就想要羞辱红绫．为奴为稗．你一一做梦~”
Lin Xuan stopped what he was doing. What was she trying to do?
tā de shēng yīn qīng cuì yǐ jí ． kě zhè jǐ gè zì què chōng mǎn le shā fá zhī yì 。
她的声音清脆以极．可这几个字却充满了杀伐之意。
Was she about to transform into a demon and gain more power?
lín xuān yě bù yóu de yǒu xiē cuò è ． dàn chū hū yù liào de ， tā bù jǐn méi yì shēng qì ， biǎo qíng fǎn ér biàn dé yǒu xiē gǔ guài qǐ lái le 。
林轩也不由得有些错愕．但出乎预料的，他不仅没亦生气，表情反而变得有些古怪起来了。
Thinking of the ancient demons, Lin Xuan’s expression turned serious. However, soon he dismissed this idea.
céng jǐ hé shí ． yě shì zài zhè kuí yīn shān mài shēn chù 。
曾几何时．也是在这奎阴山脉深处。
She wasn’t transforming; she had failed to integrate the demonic energy well, causing it to backfire. In other words, Red Silk was possessed by demonic energy.
yī wèi jué jiàng ér měi lì de nǚ zǐ ， miàn duì dǎo rǎo ， kě méi yǒu sī háo de jù sè 。
一位倔强而美丽的女子，面对祷扰，可没有丝毫的惧色。
Unexpectedly, things ended in such a way.
kǒng què nǎi tiān dì líng zú ． jiù suàn duì shàng shàng jiè xiōng shòu tā yě jué bù tuì suō 。
孔雀乃天地灵族．就算对上上界凶兽她也绝不退缩。
Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel both amused and frustrated. She would go mad and die without his intervention.
nìng yuàn jiāo ào de yǔn luò ． yě bù qiú ráo 。
宁愿骄傲的陨落．也不求饶。
Of course, with his abilities, he could save her if he wanted to.
nà bǎi nián qián de yí mù ． yǔ xiàn zài shì hé qí de xiāng sì 。
那百年前的一幕．与现在是何其的相似。
Should he or shouldn’t he?
xiǎng zhe yuǎn zài qiān wàn lǐ zhī wài de ài qī 、 lín xuān liǎn shàng liú lù chū jǐ fēn wēn nuǎn zhī yì ． yuán běn bīng lěng de shā qì ． sì hū yě bèi chōng dàn le yī xiē 。
想着远在千万里之外的爱妻、林轩脸上流露出几分温暖之意．原本冰冷的杀气．似乎也被冲淡了一些。
Lin Xuan hesitated for a moment before making a decision. He needed information from Red Silk about the secret scroll. And her stubbornness reminded him of his wife on the Five Color Spirit Mountain.
rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ． hóng líng nǎ hái yǒu xīn qíng zhù yì zhè xiē 。
然而此时此刻．红绫哪还有心情注意这些。
With a sigh, Lin Xuan flew towards Red Silk.
With a gentle wave of her delicate fingers, a small jade ring appeared in the air. Its design was simple and ancient, resembling a bracelet one might wear.
At first glance, it didn't seem like a powerful artifact. But Lin Xuan knew better; this Zhen Ling Ring was no ordinary treasure.
If he were only at the late婴 stage, he wouldn’t underestimate it. However, now there was nothing to worry about.
"True Lady, you refuse to submit. You should know that whether you run or fight, you have no chance," Lin Xuan said coldly as his gaze swept over Red Silk's face.
