Chapter 37: Aunt Jing
"What's wrong," Shi Yan asked, looking at them.
Arus and Pucci stretched out their hands at the same time, pointing at the ice sculpture behind him, Shi Yan suddenly felt a cold air behind him, and turned around sharply only to see a woman's soul body appear out of thin air behind him, and the other party was silently looking at him.
"Again??" Shi Yan was surprised.
The soul body didn't speak, but just looked at Shi Yan to himself, Shi Yan looked at the woman, and then at the ice sculpture behind him, and suddenly understood that the soul body in front of him was the soul of the woman.
"Since it's two children? Could it be that they sent two children to save me? The soul woman wondered.
"Save you?" Shi Yan was stunned.
"I don't think so, who would send two children to save me, little ghost, how did you get here?" The soul woman asked.
"I'm not called a little ghost, my name is Shi Yan, my junior brother and I heard that there may be strange treasures here, so let's take a look," Shi Yan said.
"Shi Yan? Your surname is also Shi? The soul woman said.
Arus and Pucci had long been hiding, watching Shi Yan and the woman chatting, Arus admired Shi Yan's courage from the bottom of his heart, he could talk wherever he went, and he even chatted with some ghosts and gods, the last time it was the soul of an ancient beast, this time he simply chatted with the female ghost.
"That senior brother, it's almost okay, and asking people how they left is the main thing," Arus said.
"Little ghost, don't interrupt, you said your surname is Shi? Where are you from? The soul woman asked.
"I'm from Strange Stone Town," Shi Yan said.
As soon as the four words of Qishi Town came out, the soul woman's face suddenly changed, she was suspended in mid-air and spun around Shi Yan, and then came to Shi Yan to look at Shi Yan's face.
"It's over. Pucci, you've been through the tens of thousands of years," Arus said.
"Poof~" Pucci hugged Arus's neck and cried out in horror.
"Strange Stone Town? Stone Rock? Do you know quartz? The soul woman asked.
"Of course, how did you know my father?" Shi Yan said curiously.
The woman was stunned for a moment, looking at the young man in front of her with an incredible look, and after a while, the woman stretched out her hand and touched Shi Yan's face, Shi Yan felt a trace of coolness pass over his face, and after a long time, the woman's emotions calmed down.
"You stinky boy, you've grown so big, hehe, I really didn't expect that the person who found me in the end was you" The soul woman laughed.
"Shi Yan, could it be that she is your mother," Arus said suddenly.
"Poof?" Pucci also looked at them in surprise.
"Huh?" Shi Yan was stunned.
"No, no, how did you do that? What nonsense! The soul woman shook her head and smiled.
"I said fairy sister, if you didn't say it earlier, it's like a family," Arus said.
"I'm your sister-in-law, your mother's sister, you should call me Aunt Jing," the soul woman laughed.
"Ah????h Shi Yan and Arus both screamed, and Pucci also looked at Shi Yan and the soul woman in disbelief.
"Senior brother, after a long time, it's still your relative, your mother's sister," Arus said.
"Bold," the woman said angrily, and as she spoke, a strong wind swept through and pushed Arus directly against the wall.
"Wait a minute, don't hurt him," Shi Yan hurriedly persuaded.
"If you don't hold back, you should fight," the soul woman said angrily.
"Senior brother, are you okay" Shi Yan hurriedly went over to help Arus up.
"I'm going to shoot me to death," Arus said.
"Talking nonsense, it's okay now," Shi Yan said.
"Senior brother, I know it's wrong, and I won't dare in the future," Arus said.
"You say you're my aunt? How come I never heard my father mention you? Shi Yan asked.
"Cut~ That wooden fish head, he is a dead eye, besides, I have nothing to do to lie to you, do relatives still have random recognition, we are a total of three brothers and sisters, your mother is called Zhuyue ranked second, my name is Zhujing ranked third, according to the generation, you should call me Aunt Jing" The soul woman smiled.
"I'm sorry, I can't understand it, my father never said anything about my mother, and when he left, he only told me to go to the capital to find my mother, how could you be my aunt?" Shi Yan said curiously.
"Quartz that guy is really, Xiao Yan, I know you, I hugged you when you were born, and then your father took you away and I also went to Qishi Town, but unfortunately you were too young at that time to remember me at all, your Shi family is protected by the monarch, you can mine and use ores at will, and you have a mission, which is to seal the Red Flame Earth Emperor, which is also the reason why your father left your mother back then" The soul woman smiled.
“???” Shi Yan looked at the woman in front of him and talked a lot. But it's a pity that Quartz didn't tell Shi Yan the specific situation except that he was going to complete his mission, Shi Yan heard the name of the Red Flame Emperor for the first time, this woman seems to know a lot, besides, what is this, the woman doesn't need to lie to herself.
"Well, I'm Shi Yan's junior brother, shouldn't I call you Aunt Jing too?" asked Arus.
"Yo~ Seriously, you're not so annoying, since you're Xiaoyan's junior brother, you can call it that," Zhu Jing said.
"Aunt Jing, if you are really my aunt, why are you here?" Shi Yan asked.
"Alas~" Zhu Jing said, slowly sat down in front of Shi Yan and continued, "It's a long story, I'm a person who has no freedom, in addition to being forced to cultivate all day long, it is cultivation, when your father left, without giving a valid reason, my sister, your mother, was very angry and swore to never see your father." In desperation, I will look at your father and son for my sister, after all, you are her flesh and blood, she can't let go of her son, I always have to suffer for her, and then Quartz told me the truth, saying that when you turn 16, I will take you back to China. On the way back, I passed by here and learned that there were strange treasures in the mountains, so I wanted to come and have a look, but I knew that when I first came here, I was wrapped in a strong cold, but fortunately, this exquisite dress and exquisite staff blocked part of the cold for me, and I was able to keep my soul power."
"Until now?" Shi Yan asked.
"Well, I've been asleep during this period, that is, I woke up half a month ago, I originally thought, I lost, your mother and your uncle will definitely send someone to find me, which one has been waiting for a long time, I can only choose to sleep in the ice" Zhu Jing pouted and said.
"It turns out that the Venerable with a strong wind attribute that the pharmacy owner said is you?" Shi Yan was surprised.
"Venerable? Hehe~ Your aunt and I are just a 2-level 3-stage mage, I was just having fun, so I deceived the boss, I didn't expect him to really believe it" Zhu Jing smiled embarrassedly.
"No wonder, if Aunt Jing was Venerable, she wouldn't have been sealed," Shi Yan said.
"It's hard to say, when I came here, I also saw a few frozen corpses in front of me, I was also stunned at the time, I felt that their strength was above me, such a strong person was frozen, let alone me, fortunately, I and the Linglong Staff have become one, and I hid in this cave with its power" Zhu Jing said.
"I didn't see any corpses outside," Shi Yan said.
"Nonsense, that monster spews a strong wind and cold air from time to time, and even if it is some, it is also scratched, and God knows where those ice cubes flew," said Zhu Jing.
Shi Yan and Arus suddenly remembered that the owner of the pharmacy said that rare treasures often fell from the mouth of the cliff. Arus's eyebrows furrowed, and a bold assumption popped up in Shi Yan's heart. If the rare treasures that the boss said were the broken corpses of those strong people, then would the demon beasts be able to become stronger after eating the remains of the cultivators. This idea was quickly seen through by Arus, and after a long time, since the two had a tacit understanding, without waiting for Shi Yan to speak, Arus knew what Shi Yan was thinking.
"Vomit~" Arus retched on his stomach.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Jing said curiously.
"It's okay, he might have thought of something disgusting," Shi Yan said with a smile.
"Senior brother, you really killed me this time, or it won't be long before we become the dinner of those brutes," Arus said.
"Don't worry, there will always be a way," Shi Yan said.
"What's the solution," Arus said.
"You don't have to be depressed, we still have a chance to leave," said Zhu Jing.
"Oh?" Shi Yan looked at Zhu Jing.
"You see, my body was frozen before, and I couldn't leave with the staff, but I can use the staff's power, as long as you take the staff off and take it with you, I can become one with the staff, use the wind elemental model, and take you out of here," said Zhu Jing.
"Don't lie to me, if you can leave, why don't you leave sooner," Arus asked.
"You stupid, my cultivation is not high, my soul power can't withstand the qi of heaven and earth, if you go out, it won't take long for you to survive, and your soul will be scattered" Zhu Jing said.
"Then Aunt Jing, I'll take you away, will you too~~" Shi Yan asked.
"You can rest assured about this, the Linglong Staff Divine Weapon is ranked 17th, and it is made of the spirit stone of the 'Wind God Ancient Beast', and I can become one with the Staff when I leave here, and with its ability, I can resist the decomposition of the Qi of Heaven and Earth," Zhu Jing said.
"That's great, let's go," Arus said.
"Also, even Aunt Jing has been sealed, if we move forward, we will definitely die, it seems that we can only come back after growing up," Shi Yan said.
"Don't mess around, I don't want to come again," said Chai Jing.
Shi Yan and Arus melted the ice and carefully took out the staff from the corpse. Since the two of them were injured and their physical strength was very lacking, they decided to rest in the cave for one night before leaving.
Early the next morning, Shi Yan was awakened by a fresh wind, and it turned out that Zhu Jing couldn't wait to leave, and called Shi Yan and Arus up without waiting for the sun to come out. But when he was leaving, Zhu Jing was really reluctant to give up his body, but Zhu Jing knew that once his body left this ice cube, it would probably be ruined, and he had no choice but to get into the staff. Shi Yan put the staff into the ring, and Pucci followed suit, leading Arus to the entrance of the cave.
"Aunt Jing, I'll count to three, and I'll run out with Arus, and you'll protect us when I jump off," Shi Yan said to the ring.
"Don't worry," said Chai Jing.
"One. Two, three", Shi Yan and Arus ran away, and as soon as the two of them appeared at the fracture, a strange scream came from the other side of the cliff, and they felt an overwhelming momentum behind them. Shi Yan's fighting spirit condensed at the bottom of his feet, and he pulled Arus to the mouth of the cliff. Looking at the bottom of the cliff, Arus suddenly felt a little weak, Shi Yan didn't give him a chance to reflect, and pulled him to jump directly.
"Aunt Jing~"
As soon as he jumped out, a hurricane rushed out behind him, blowing Shi Yan and Arus out a few meters away, Shi Yan felt a chill behind him, and his body began to slowly freeze.
"Spells, Spirits Soaring"
There was a sound of silence coming from inside the ring, and the wind in the sky suddenly gathered towards the two, and two wind wings instantly appeared on both sides of Shi Yan and Arus's bodies, leading the two of them to glide in the sky.
"Cool~" Shi Yan said with a smile.
With the help of Zhujing, the two of them flew in the sky for a long time, and they both flew out of Tianfeng Town, passing by the sky above the town, Shi Yan looked at the people walking slowly in the town, like ants. Presumably, they should be very small when they look at the sky. No one in the town noticed the two in the sky, and Shi Yan enjoyed the fun of flying, and this feeling of freedom was too good.
"You have to be careful, I can't hold it anymore," the ring said anxiously,
"Aunt Jing, don't be kidding, it's so high here," Shi Yan suddenly said in fear. Looking at Arus, due to excessive fright, since he fainted, it is no wonder that he has been silent.
"No kidding, maybe it's because of the state of the soul, I can't use the full power of this staff," Zhu Jing said.
"And then~"
Without waiting for Zhu Jing to answer, the wind wings behind him became weaker and weaker, Shi Yan and Arus fell faster and faster, Shi Yan thought to himself, he would be half crippled if he didn't fall to death this time. Looking at Arus, still unconscious, Shi Yan held Arus's hand tightly, and he was about to fall down heavily~
"Spell - Wind Riding Technique" the ring recited quietly.
A gust of wind lifted Shi Yan and Arusto, who were about to land, up, and after just three seconds of levitation, Shi Yan and Arus fell down again, but this time it was only a few meters from the ground, although it was also a heavy fall, but the two of them did not break their arms and legs, but they fell out of breath and slowed down for a long time.
"It's Aunt Jing's bad, the estimation is wrong, are you all right?" asked Zhu Jing in the ring.
"Uh~~~"
If it was an ordinary person, I was afraid that he would have to lie down for ten days and half a month after falling, but Shi Yan was a 6th stage fighter after all, and he slowly got up, except for some stuffiness in his chest, there was nothing abnormal.
"How's your friend?" Zhu Jing asked.
"He fainted, he shouldn't feel it, but he fell enough, so he needs to find a safe place to rest," Shi Yan said.
