nǎo hǎi zhōng de niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， zhèn ěr yù lóng de sī hǒu shēng jiù chuán rù le ěr duǒ ， xuè líng yǒu xiē hài rán de tái qǐ tóu lú 。()
脑海中的念头尚未转过，震耳欲聋的嘶吼声就传入了耳朵，血灵有些骇然的抬起头颅。()
The thought in his mind had barely formed when a deafening roar echoed into his ears, startling Blood Spirit.
fēng qǐ ， yún yǒng ！
风起，云涌！
Wind stirred and clouds swirled.
zhǐ jiàn tóu dǐng shàng kōng ， nà yào mù de líng guāng yǐ yǒu rú qì pào ， xùn sù xiāo sàn diào 。
只见头顶上空，那耀目的灵光已有如气泡，迅速消散掉。
Above him, the dazzling spiritual light was rapidly dissipating like bubbles.
rén miàn hǔ zú ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， táo wù chǒu lòu de róng yán shàng mǎn shì fèn nù 。
人面虎足，此时此刻，梼杌丑陋的容颜上满是愤怒。
With human face and tiger paws, Tiaomu's ugly visage was filled with rage. As one of the Four Evils, he had always been incredibly tyrannical. However, after being dispatched to the mortal world, he had suffered consecutive setbacks at the hands of two Core Formation cultivators.
zuò wèi sì xiōng zhī yī ， chén xiàng lái mán hèng wú bǐ ， rán ér fēn hún xià jiè yǐ hòu ， què jiē lián chī biě zài liǎng míng yuán yīng xiū shì de shǒu lǐ 。
做为四凶之一，忱向来蛮横无比，然而分魂下界以后，却接连吃瘪在两名元婴修士的手里。
While he didn't dwell on that annoying Lin Xiao for now—after all, back then he was merely a Core Formation cultivator—the pain of being injured by an Advanced Core Formation cultivator while re-entering the Separation Realm was unbearable.
nà kě wù de lín xiǎo zi zàn qiě bù tí ， bì jìng nà shí hòu zì jǐ yě jǐn jǐn shì yuán yīng qī ， kě rú jīn chóng xīn mài rù lí hé ， zài bèi yī yuán yīng hòu qī de xiū shì suǒ shāng jiù ràng xī nán yǐ rěn shòu le 。
那可恶的林小子暂且不提，毕竟那时候自己也仅仅是元婴期，可如今重新迈入离合，再被一元婴后期的修士所伤就让牺难以忍受了。
The explosive power of self-blast was no small matter, and Zha Hang's rage was tinged with a hint of desperation.
ròu shēn zì bào de wēi lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， dǎo háng zài fèn nù de bèi hòu yě yǐn xiàn láng bèi zhī sè 。
肉身自爆的威力非同小可，祷杭在愤怒的背后也隐现狼狈之色。
His gaze swept over Blood Spirit, causing her to shiver involuntarily in fear, though she had already put life and death aside.
mù guāng zài xuè líng de liǎn shàng shǎn guò ， ràng cǐ nǚ jī líng líng de dǎ le yí gè lěng zhàn ， kǒng jù háo méi lái yóu de cóng nèi xīn shēng le qǐ lái 。
目光在血灵的脸上闪过，让此女激灵灵的打了一个冷战，恐惧毫没来由的从内心升了起来。
Raising his head, Tiaomu gazed towards the distant horizon where the new moon had fled more than two hundred miles away. This delay was futile; he remained within the range of his divine sense.
tā yě bù zhī dào zì jǐ zài pà shén me ， míng míng yǐ jiāng shēng sǐ zhì zhī dù wài 。
她也不知道自己在怕什么，明明已将生死置之度外。
Trying to escape would be a dream.
suí hòu táo wù tái qǐ tóu lú ， wàng xiàng tiān biān yuǎn chù ， zhè shāo yī dān gē ， xīn yuè yǐ táo dào liǎng bǎi lǐ kāi wài le 。
随后梼杌抬起头颅，望向天边远处，这稍一耽搁，新月已逃到两百里开外了。
Roar!
kě xī shì tú láo de 。
可惜是徒劳的。
Zha Hang's body tensed as he launched himself forward with all four limbs, seemingly intent on chasing after the new moon princess.
yī jiù chǔ yú zì jǐ shén shí de suǒ dìng zhī zhōng ， xiǎng zǒu ， zuò mèng ！
依旧处于自己神识的锁定之中，想走，做梦！
Blood Spirit couldn't help but narrow her eyes. For her two children, she wouldn't allow this.
hǒu ！
吼！
A determined resolve flashed in her eyes as she prepared to intercept him head-on.
xī shēn tǐ yī gōng ， sì zhī fā lì ， sì hū jiù yào xiàng xīn yuè zhuī qù 。
牺身体一弓，四肢发力，似乎就要像新月追去。
However, Tiaomu was not without strategy; he had just been tricked once and couldn't be caught so easily again. His malevolent aura surged like a tidal wave.
xuè líng bù yóu de tóng kǒng wēi suō ， wèi le zì jǐ de yī shuāng ér nǚ ， tā jué bú huì ràng duì fāng zhè me zuò 。
血灵不由得瞳孔微缩，为了自己的一双儿女，她绝不会让对方这么做。
Several darkened magical claws appeared before vanishing instantly, reappearing above Blood Spirit's head.
rú gāng cái de bǎi hé ， yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jué sǐ de jiān dìng zhī sè 。
如刚才的百阖，眼中闪过一丝决死的坚定之色。
She gasped in alarm, but it was too late to dodge.
hún shēn lì máng dà qǐ ” jiù xiǎng yào dāng tóu lán jié shàng qù 。
浑身厉芒大起”就想要当头拦截上去。
Tiaomu grabbed her by the hands and feet, tearing her apart as if she were being torn into five pieces.
rán ér táo wù suī rán xiōng è ， què bìng fēi yǒu yǒng wú móu ， gāng gāng cái chī guò yī cì kǔ tóu ， zhè me duǎn de shí jiān zěn me kě néng shàng zài cì dāng ne ？
然而梼杌虽然凶恶，却并非有勇无谋，刚刚才吃过一次苦头，这么短的时间怎么可能上再次当呢？
But Blood Spirit was a cultivator; she wouldn't perish so easily. A semblance of an Advanced Core Formation cultivator emerged from the blood rain.
hún shēn de lì qì ， rú hǎi cháo nù tāo yì bān de kuáng yǒng ér chū 。
浑身的戾气，如海潮怒涛一般的狂涌而出。
For such a turn of events, Tiaomu had anticipated it, handling it with ease.
níng jù róng hé ， jǐ zhī yǒu hēi de mó zhǎo chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn zhōng 。
凝聚融合，几只黝黑的魔爪出现在了视线中。
Opening his mouth, black light flashed as a needle-shaped treasure flew out and pierced through the other's forehead.
lüè yī shǎn shuò ， jiù rú shùn yí bān xiāo shī dé wú yǐng wú zōng ， suí hòu chū xiàn zài le xuè líng de tóu dǐng shàng kōng 。
略一闪烁，就如瞬移般消失得无影无踪，随后出现在了血灵的头顶上空。
The entire process seemed complex but took only an instant.
cǐ nǚ dà jīng shī sè ， kě xiǎng duǒ míng xiǎn yǐ lái bù jí le 。
此女大惊失色，可想躲明显已来不及了。
Tiaomu had lured Blood Spirit into making her move; after dealing with her, he could pursue the new moon princess. Unfortunately for him, the mantis caught the cicada while another predator was waiting in the wings. Tiaomu never expected that a formidable opponent lay hidden just over a hundred feet away.
bèi xī wò zhù shuāng shǒu shuāng zú ， xiàng zhe páng biān yī chě ， jiù bèi wǔ mǎ fēn shī bān de sī chéng jǐ bàn le 。
被牺握住双手双足，向着旁边一扯，就被五马分尸般的撕成几半了。
Seeing the entire sequence, Lin Xuan couldn't remain idle.
bù guò cǐ nǚ shì xiū xiān zhě ， zì rán bú huì zhè yàng qīng yì yǔn luò líng guāng yī shǎn ， yī róng mào yǔ tā jí wéi xiāng sì de yuán yīng cóng xuè yǔ zhōng táo le chū lái 。
不过此女是修仙者，自然不会这样轻易陨落灵光一闪，一容貌与她极为相似的元婴从血雨中逃了出来。
If it had only been the new moon princess, he might have sat back and watched the conflict unfold. Regardless of who won or lost, he would be pleased to see one side prevail. However, there was still a soul within her body. Xiaohou Lan had risked everything to help him, even joining forces with a Separation Realm cultivator. Although Tiaomu's own ascension was swift due to his greater intrinsic realm, this speed of progression from Core Formation to Separation Realm in just two hundred years was inconceivable.
rán ér duì yú zhè yàng de biàn gù ， táo wù zǎo jiù xīn zhōng yǒu shù ， yìng fù qǐ lái yě shì huī sǎ zì rú 。
然而对于这样的变故，梼杌早就心中有数，应付起来也是挥洒自如。
Even on the Spirit Realm, such rapid advancement would be rare.
zhāng kāi kǒu ， hēi máng shǎn guò ， yī fēi zhēn xíng zhuàng de fǎ bǎo bèi xī pēn tǔ ér chū ， sōu de yī xià jiù cóng yuán yīng de méi xīn shè rù ” guàn chuān le tóu lú 。
张开口，黑芒闪过，一飞针形状的法宝被牺喷吐而出，嗖的一下就从元婴的眉心射入”贯穿了头颅。
Lin Xuan had no time for idle chatter; enemies meeting face-to-face meant only one thing—deciding who lived and who died through combat. He pointed his finger, and the Green Fire Sword flashed, sending several sword energy streaks towards Tiaomu.
tù qǐ hú luò ， zhěng gè guò chéng kàn shì fán fù ， qí shí bù guò yī shùn jiān de gōng fu 。
兔起鹘落，整个过程看似繁复，其实不过一瞬间的功夫。
The attack was formidable, but it wasn't enough. Scanning with his divine sense, he found that this area had abundant earth elemental qi. Since practicing Phoenix Dance Nine Skies Technique, he could manipulate all five elements.
táo wù zǎo jiù yǒu yù móu de yòu piàn xuè líng chū shǒu ， jiě jué cǐ nǚ yǐ hòu ， cái hǎo qù zhuī xīn yuè gōng zhǔ ， kě xī táng láng bǔ chán huáng què zài hòu ， xī wàn wàn liào xiǎng bú dào ， jiù zài bǎi yú zhàng yuǎn chù ， hái yǐn cáng yǎng yī kě pà de duì shǒu 。
梼杌早就有预谋的诱骗血灵出手，解决此女以后，才好去追新月公主，可惜螳螂捕蝉黄雀在后，牺万万料想不到，就在百余丈远处，还隐藏养一可怕的对手。
He opened and closed his hands, casting several spells into the ground.
mù dǔ zhěng gè guò chéng yǐ hòu ， lín xuān zěn me kě néng yòu shǒu páng gù 。
目睹整个过程以后，林轩怎么可能柚手旁顾。
Rumble!
rú guǒ jǐn jǐn shì xīn yuè gōng zhǔ ， yě xǔ tā bú huì chū shǒu zuò shān guān hǔ dòu 。
如果仅仅是新月公主，也许他不会出手坐山观虎斗。
A strange sound like drumming echoed.
bù guǎn shuí shèng shuí fù ， zì jǐ dōu shì lè yú kàn dào de 。
不管谁胜谁负，自己都是乐于看到的。
The ground began to tremble violently as a massive monster emerged from beneath it. A hundred feet long, coiled like a snake but with nine heads, it lunged towards Zha Hang.
rán ér xīn yuè tǐ nèi hái yǒu yí gè hún pò 。
然而新月体内还有一个魂魄。
This earth dragon was formed by combining earth elemental qi with soil and gravel. There was an earth spirit vein deep underground, of high quality, which made such manipulation easier for Lin Xuan.
xià hóu lán wèi le zì jǐ ， céng bù xī lián shǒu duì kàng lí hé qī yào zhī dào ， nà shí hòu ， tā jǐn jǐn shì yuán yīng ér yǐ ， zhè yàng de ēn qíng ， lín xuān zěn me kě néng wàng jì 。
夏侯兰为了自己，曾不惜联手对抗离合期要知道，那时候，她仅仅是元婴而已，这样的恩情，林轩怎么可能忘记。
Caught off guard, Tiaomu hadn't anticipated the sudden attack or its ferocity.
suǒ yǐ duì yú xīn yuè de hèn zhǐ yǒu zàn qiě bù tí ， xiǎo mèi shì kěn dìng yào jiù dì 。
所以对于新月的恨只有暂且不提，小妹是肯定要救地。
Instead of retreating, he didn’t dodge; instead, he retracted his front paws and then struck out with them.
Aaah!
The thought in his mind had barely formed when a deafening roar echoed into his ears, startling Blood Spirit.
Wind stirred and clouds swirled.
Above him, the dazzling spiritual light was rapidly dissipating like bubbles.
With human face and tiger paws, Tiaomu's ugly visage was filled with rage. As one of the Four Evils, he had always been incredibly tyrannical. However, after being dispatched to the mortal world, he had suffered consecutive setbacks at the hands of two Core Formation cultivators.
