Chapter 26: Crisis and Opportunity

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Su Jinyue ran out of the village and sat under the old locust tree outside the village. If that man in black was after her, then she would definitely not be able to go back tonight. What she did not expect was that Song Yiren was already related to the man in black at this moment. It seemed that she had really underestimated Song Yiren.

With a sigh, Su Jinyue looked up at the sky. The stars were shining brightly in the dark night sky. They were especially bright on this dark night.

She still remembered that the last time she stargazed, it was with Yihan. That was also the last time they met in her past life.

That day happened to be her birthday. Originally, Mo Feiheng had promised to spend her birthday with her. She had waited and waited for him but he did not turn up and he did not even answer her calls.

Just when she was about to go and look for Mo Feiheng, Yihan called her. Every year on her birthday, Yihan would always give her a call to wish her happy birthday.

From their chat, she found out that Yihan was in the city where she lived, so she asked him to go with her to the mountains to stargaze. Now that she thought about it, the stars that night seemed especially bright, as if she could catch them just by reaching out her hand.

A small smile formed on Su Jinyue’s lips. “What a fool.” It was only now that she understood that it was certainly not a coincidence that Yihan happened to be in the city she lived in on her birthday. It was just that in the past, she did not care so she did not look too much into it. From now on, her birthday would only be spent with Yihan.

She stretched out her hand and tried to catch the stars. From the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of a black shadow in the distance, and it was running towards her direction.

Shocked, Su Jinyue hurriedly got up and fled. Although she did not see who the person approaching was, she was certain that it was definitely not a villager in Shangxin Village. It was probably the man in black.

The black shadow also spotted Su Jinyue, and quickly gave chase in her direction.

Turning her head back, she saw that the black shadow was hot on her heels. Su Jinyue was even more panic-stricken and ran up the mountain trail. At this moment, she could no longer care whether there was danger in the mountains. All that mattered was escaping.

Su Jinyue sprinted without stopping. Her breathing became increasingly rapid, her strength was depleting and her legs felt like lead. When she heard the approaching footsteps behind her, a wave of despair surged in her heart.?Will I have to die in Song Yiren’s hands again, even after being reborn? I can’t accept it! Can’t accept it!

Just then, she stumbled over a rock that was sticking out from the ground. She staggered forward a few steps but before she could regain her balance, she rolled down a mountain slope.?I guess this is good too. At least it’s better than dying at the hands of Song Yiren. It’s just a pity that I wasn’t able to be with Yihan in this lifetime!

The man in black came to the place where Su Jinyue had rolled down. Looking down, he sneered coldly. Then, he turned around and walked towards Shangxin Village.

Song Yiren could not fall asleep, so she just sat on her bed and read a book, while waiting for the man in black to bring her news.?By rights, Su Jinyue and Big Brother Zhan had not been apart for that long, so they shouldn’t be having a tryst. But where else would Su Jinyue have gone so late at night

“Knock! Knock! Knock!” A soft rapping sound came from the window.

Song Yiren put down her book, got up and hopped over to the window. She opened the window, and when she saw the man in black outside the window, she quickly asked, “Where is Su Jinyue?”

“She rolled down the mountain,” the man in black said.

Song Yiren was taken aback. She asked, “Is she dead?”

“The chances of her being alive are very slim,” the man in black said.?She rolled down from such a high mountain. Even if she didn’t die, she would have become paralysed from the fall.

Song Yiren was silent for a moment. After which, she nodded her head and said, “I see.”?If Su Jinyue is really dead, she can only blame herself for being unlucky.

The night gradually faded, and the white streaks of dawn appeared in the sky in the East. A ray of sunlight peeked out from the sea of ??clouds, as if to inject a trace of life into the earth, making everything look vibrant.

As the sun continued to rise, the whole world became brighter. The brilliant sun slowly dispersed the clouds and fog in the mountain, making the mountains in the distance become clearer.

Su Jinyue groaned as she slowly opened her eyes. She surveyed her surroundings and realised that she was in a cave.?Didn’t I roll down a mountain slope? Why am I in a cave? Who cares, I’m just lucky to be alive.

She tried to move her body and realised that she did not have any injuries apart from some pain in her back.

She then got up and studied the cave carefully. The cave was not very big. It was only about five or six square meters. There was a hole above the cave with many weeds and trees covering that hole. It seemed that she had fallen into the cave from that hole.

“Master! There’s spiritual energy here!” Little Elf’s voice rang out.

“Really?!” Su Jinyue was extremely surprised.?Is this what they mean by ‘one is bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster’?

“Master, use your X-ray vision to take a look. That thing should be behind the cave wall,” Little Elf told her.

Su Jinyue nodded and scanned the surrounding cave walls in full concentration. Soon, she discovered a small black wooden box behind a cave wall that was bulging out. “I found it.”

Walking forward happily, Su Jinyue examined the bulging cave wall for a while. Then, she picked up a rock from the ground and began smashing it against the cave wall.

Ten minutes passed but she had only smashed a small hole in the cave wall. Su Jinyue took a short break before she continued pounding.

Half an hour… An hour… Su Jinyue clenched her teeth and kept smashing the bulging cave wall. Her palms had already been scraped by the rock, and her blood had stained a corner of the rock. Despite this, her gaze became more and more determined. The opportunity was right before her eyes. She must not give up just because of a little difficulty.

“Crack!” A soft sound could be heard.

The next moment, Su Jinyue saw the bulging cave wall gradually cave in towards the inside. After a while, a small hole appeared on the cave wall, and the small black wooden box was slowly pushed out from that hole.

Su Jinyue’s eyes lit up. Then, she reached out to pick up that small black wooden box and took a closer look. She saw that there were no mechanisms on the wooden box, so she opened the wooden box. Inside the wooden box, there was a book, a letter, three white crystals and a white porcelain bottle.

Su Jinyue picked up one of the white crystals and said, “There’s plenty of spiritual energy in this.” Compared to the snake gall that she had obtained the day before, the spiritual energy in this crystal was several times richer.

“Master, you’re rich. This is a soul stone!” Little Elf exclaimed excitedly.

“Soul stone?” Su Jinyue looked at the white crystal in her hand in confusion. This was the first time she had heard of this kind of stone.

“Anyway, it is a stone with spiritual energy, which is beneficial for your eyes,” Little Elf said.

Su Jinyue smiled and nodded. She picked up the letter in the wooden box and opened it. Since the owner of the wooden box kept this letter, they would have left some information behind for sure.

She unfolded the letter. The handwriting in the letter was elegant and carefree, and the words and lines flowed smoothly and continuously like the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.

“I am Tian Daozi of the Tian Ji Sect. I was chased by my enemies, who wanted to kill me, to this place. Hence, I specially opened this cave dwelling for healing. It’s just that my injury is too serious and nothing can be done. If a destined person gets the wooden box I left behind, the three soul stones in the wooden box, the Body Cleanse Pills, and the Immortality Cultivation Manual shall all be given to the destined person. However, I hope that the destined person will help me to return the black wooden box to the Tian Ji Sect.. I have left a map of the Tian Ji Sect at the back of this letter. I hope that the destined person will help me to fulfill my wish, thank you very much!”
