Chapter 1600 - Two Choices
Translator: Legge
The white cat looked at the Dragon Phoenix True Body not far away, as though it wanted to break free from Matriarch Yue Luo’s embrace.
However, Matriarch Yue Luo merely exerted slight strength in her palm and the white cat shuddered. Although it had a pained expression, it endured without saying anything!
All the living beings of the ten thousand races were puzzled.
They did not know why Matriarch Yue Luo would suddenly talk about the white cat in her embrace.
Only the Dragon Phoenix True Body knew that the white cat in Matriarch Yue Luo’s embrace was his eldest disciple, Beiming Xue!
He finally understood why there was a strange feeling in his heart when he saw the white cat.
‘That was because the way the white cat looked at him was the same way Beiming Xue looked at him!
Because the Dragon Phoenix True Body was not the Green Lotus True Body and had no true contact with Beiming Xue, he did not recognize her right away.
Furthermore, even the Green Lotus True Body wouldn’t acknowledge it rashly after a single familiar gaze.
There were six Daos in the world.
Heavenly Dao, Human Dao, Asura Dao, Beast Dao, Hungry Ghost Dao and Hell Dao!
Among the six Daos, the first three were the Dao of kindness. Once comprehended, they would become greater divine powers.
‘The latter three Daos were evil. Once comprehended, they would become lesser divine powers.
If he could comprehend all six of them and fuse them together, it would be a supreme divine power… the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
‘The divine power Matriarch Yue Luo used to turn Beiming Xue into a cat belonged to the Beast Dao!
Once casted, the Beast Dao could turn humans into various beasts.
Unless any other Mahayana Patriarch used the greater divine power of the Human Dao to liberate them into human again, it would be difficult for them to recover to their previous state!
The Beast Dao was one of the evil Daos and was extremely vile.
Furthermore, a Mahayana Patriarch attacked to deal with a Void Reversion personally!
In the past, the most dangerous situation Su Zimo faced was back when he was at the Void Reversion realm—he was hunted by a Half-Martial Ancestor personally and almost lost his life.
But now, Beiming Xue was targeted by a Mahayana Patriarch!
‘The Dragon Phoenix True Body knew very well that Beiming Xue was experiencing such a calamity because of him!
Matriarch Yue Luo gripped the nape of the white cat gently such that the latter could not move as she said with a smile on her face still, “This Void Reversion girl seems to be called Beiming Xue. Desolate Martial, do you know her?”
“ah!”
Before the Dragon Phoenix True Body could say anything, Carefree exclaimed.
Carefree stood up and glared at Matriarch Yue Luo viciously with a murderous aura, wanting nothing more than to charge forward and devour her alive!
“What are you doing? Sit down!”
Yin Lan frowned slightly and pushed Carefree back.
“Sister, save that white cat!”
Carefree hurriedly sent a voice transmission, “Don’t hurt that white cat!”
Yin Lan shook her head. “Even without that white cat, I can’t defeat Matriarch Yue Luo, let alone rescue that white cat safely.”
Carefree said with an anxious expression, “Ask the clan leader to come then! He’ll definitely be able to save the white cat!”
“Don’t be hasty,”
Yin Lan said, “Your master is the one who is the most anxious! Isn’t he very capable? Let’s see what he has up his sleeves.”
Upon hearing Matriarch Yue Luo’s words, the living beings of the ten thousand races gradually understood that Beiming Xue definitely had something to do with Desolate Martial!
“Beiming Xue seems to be someone from the Beiming aristocratic family. She’s Desolate Martial’s eldest disciple.”
“Ah, I remember now! In recent years, a monster incarnate that cultivated the Martial Dao has risen and is extremely strong. It’s said that she has already obtained Desolate Martial’s true inheritance!”
“No wonder Matriarch Yue Luo would attack a Void Reversion personally.”
“Beiming Xue is in the hands of Matriarch Yue Luo. Unless Desolate Martial disregards her life, he’ll probably have to compromise out of cautiousness.”
Many cultivators whispered.
The Dragon Phoenix True Body nodded. “Beiming Xue is my eldest disciple.”
“Oh?”
Matriarch Yue Luo faked surprise. “What a coincidence!”
‘The Dragon Phoenix True Body had a cold expression and merely looked at Matriarch Yue Luo quietly.
Matriarch Yue Luo burst into laughter. “Desolate Martial, this girl’s talent is decent and I don’t wish to hurt her. If you want to protect her, you’ll have to agree to a few of my conditions.”
“Don’t worry, my conditions won’t make things difficult for you.”
The Dragon Phoenix True Body was still silent.
Matriarch Yue Luo smiled and continued, “How about this? Don’t say that I’m heartless, I’ll give you a choice. Do you want your Green Lotus True Body or your disciple? You can only choose one.”
After she said that, a commotion broke out in the crowd.
“How should he choose? The Green Lotus True Body has not been easy to cultivate and is about to advance to the Ancestor realm. Furthermore, it’s the Creation Green Lotus. How can he give it up?”
“However, his eldest disciple has to die if he doesn’t give it up! If Desolate Martial chooses the Green Lotus True Body, he’ll probably have to bear the guilt of his disciple in the future. Although he didn’t kill Beiming Xue, she died because of him!”
“That’s a truly vile move! If Desolate Martial were to leave her in the lurch, his Dao Heart would probably waver!”
“Desolate Martial either has to destroy his Green Lotus True Body or his Dao Heart!”
Many bystanders could tell of Matriarch Yue Luo’s sinister intentions!
‘The white cat in Matriarch Yue Luo’s embrace suddenly struggled!
Even if Matriarch Yue Luo exerted strength in her palm, the white cat did not care and merely struggled with all its might with a resolute gaze!
Matriarch Yue Luo’s fingernails were long.
As the white cat struggled, her fingernails dug deep into its body, causing blood to flow out.
Its snow-white fur was stained with blood!
However, the white cat seemed like it could not feel any pain and was still resisting with all its might.
The more it struggled, the more blood it bled.
However, it refused to stop!
In the palm of a Mahayana Matriarch, the strength of this white cat seemed insignificant. However, it refused to give up and bit Matriarch Yue Luo’s palm.
If its teeth were snapped, it would use its claws to scratch!
If its claws were crippled, it would use its head to smash!
“Sigh!”
A cultivator sighed. “To think that Beiming Xue has such a tough personality. She doesn’t want to implicate Desolate Martial and wants to die.”
“Senior Sister!”
Carefree stood up and his vision gradually blurred as he exclaimed softly by instinct.
A look of heartache and pity flashed through the Dragon Phoenix True Body’s eyes as he looked at the white cat that was struggling.
‘An uneasy feeling surged through Matriarch Yue Luo’s heart.
Coupled with the constant struggles of the white cat in her embrace, she felt a sense of frustration. She retracted her smile and her expression turned cold. “Desolate Martial, I’ve given you a chance. It’s not a difficult choice. It depends on what you want to give up!”
“My patience is limited,”
She said coldly, “If this white cat truly pisses me off, I can kill her at any moment!”
“As my disciple, Beiming Xue will definitely encounter countless sufferings and dangers. I told her that before,”
‘The Dragon Phoenix True Body finally spoke, “However, those sufferings can’t be overly excess! Yue Luo, as a Mahayana Matriarch, you attacked a Void Reversion personally. That’s crossing the line.”
“Lwant neither of the choices you gave me,”
‘The Dragon Phoenix True Body looked at Matriarch Yue Luo and paused for a moment before saying slowly, “Tl make a third choice!”
