The Stunning Mad Empress: The Useless Third Miss-Chapter 57 - The Xiao Familys Ancient Array

“Waaaah, Master! What should we do, Master? Don’t leave me behind! Little Pearl will definitely save you! The Honored One entrusted you to me, and I’m your mama. I won’t abandon you!”

Little Pearl, swimming upstream, tried every possible way to break through from the other side of the array.

On the opposite side from Little Pearl, Xiao Cheng was standing with his arms crossed, excitedly watching the hazy mist in front of him.

“Once this mist clears and the array stops, it will be the day your flesh and blood turn into a puddle of water. I’ll just sit here and wait until the sunrise tomorrow to collect your remains.”

After a pause, Xiao Cheng, who was sitting on the ground, exhaled slightly: “This is the consequence of opposing me!”

Inside the array, the temperature, humidity, and inner energy were constantly changing.

Sometimes, blade arrays burst from all directions; other times, an overwhelming pressure smashed down from above…

These changes tormented Xiao Qingcheng inside the array, making her feel as if she were going through hell and back.

“Damn it! For the first time in my life, I’ve taken such a big hit. If I survive by some miracle, I’ll definitely kill you, Xiao Cheng!”

Xiao Qingcheng, with her eyes squinted and bloodshot, was in a sorry state, vigilantly facing various dangers and trials within the array.

“Master, Master! Little Pearl will definitely save you! Master, wait for me to dig my way in!”

A pair of well-kept little paws, stained with blood, were swiftly digging through the muddy soil, which was mixed with sand and compressed by the array.

The moonlight above was still bright, and the waterfall beside them was still rushing.

Apart from the swirling mist, everything seemed the same as usual.

The outside world was peaceful, but the world inside the array was in turmoil.

Xiao Qingcheng tightly gripped the Empress Sword in her hand, blood dripping from her sleeve along the soft blade,

one drop… one drop at a time.

Her heavy breathing was intermingled with life itself.

Drenched in sweat, Xiao Qingcheng had no idea how many rounds she had endured.

But as the ancient array became more and more complex, her chances of survival grew slimmer.

“I, Xiao Qingcheng, will not admit defeat, will not compromise, and will not be cowardly. I live for myself. I still have unfulfilled wishes. There are still sights in this world I haven’t seen. I still have plenty of life to squander.

One ancient array won’t trap me!”

Clenching her teeth, her determination to cheer herself on was the way Xiao Qingcheng endured hundreds of scratches all over her body and kept going.

“Waaaah! Honored One! Where are you, Honored One? Master can’t hold on much longer! Master only has the second layer of inner energy; she can’t hold on. Waaaah… What should we do?”

Little Pearl wailed, holding her aching, bloodied paws.

Xiao Cheng, who faintly heard the sounds, slightly raised his eyebrows and decided to go around the array to see what was happening.

“Who’s there?”

Hearing Xiao Cheng’s voice, Little Pearl dug even faster.

At that moment, Qian Xun, who was on the way to Xiao City, walked in mid-air with his hands behind his back.

“Hm? The Xiao family’s ancient array?”

Qian Xun squinted his eyes, looking at the faint golden light flickering in the distance from the top of the clouds.

Then, as if he thought of something,

he teleported in an instant, disappearing from his original spot.

The next second,

a thousand miles away, Qian Xun’s afterimage appeared once again.

In no time, Qian Xun had materialized in mid-air above the waterfall on the outskirts of Xiao City.

Below,

Xiao Cheng, who had just gone around the array, was taken aback by a fluffy creature with a tail sticking out and no head in sight.

“What is this ball of white fur?”

As he reached out, a streak of white light flashed by.

Xiao Cheng’s hand was bitten hard by Little Pearl.

“Let go, you little beast! If you don’t, I’ll skin you!”

As soon as the words left his mouth, a sharp dagger lunged towards Little Pearl’s back.

Bang!

A crisp sound interrupted Xiao Cheng’s triumph.

Qian Xun, who had materialized out of thin air, waved his hand from a distance.

Little Pearl, who had been stained with blood, was directly flown back into his hand.

“Oh? You’ve got some nerve. How dare you lay a hand on it?”

The seemingly calm voice was tinged with extreme dominance and pressure.

Xiao Cheng, who was still standing in place and hadn’t recovered from the shock, was directly suppressed to his knees by this overwhelming pressure.

“Waaaah, Master is inside the array! Master is inside the array!”

Little Pearl tugged at Qian Xun’s sleeve, crying and shouting.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Cheng slightly raised his eyebrows.

An animal that could speak must be at least a spiritual beast level.

He didn’t expect that Miss Qingcheng had such a trump card up her sleeve!

Qian Xun squinted his eyes and naturally caught a glimpse of the greed in Xiao Cheng’s eyes.

With a wave of his hand, the mist in front of him was cleared away.

In the next moment, the ancient array was directly torn apart by Qian Xun with one hand.

Inside the array, Xiao Qingcheng, who was drenched and in a sorry state, immediately saw Qian Xun, who looked like an immortal.

“I almost thought… I was really going to die!”

Xiao Qingcheng’s knees buckled, and she leaned backward.

Qian Xun quickly reached out and wrapped his arm around Xiao Qingcheng’s slender waist.

A hint of apology and tenderness flickered across his handsome face.

“Sorry, I was late.”

An almost inaudible sigh was tinged with a bit of indulgence.

With a wave of his hand, a very pure inner energy was forcibly absorbed into Xiao Qingcheng’s depleted lower abdomen.

Xiao Cheng, who saw this, was so scared that he turned around and ran.

“Honored One, Honored One, that bad guy ran away! He ran away!”

Upon hearing this, Qian Xun still only looked at Xiao Qingcheng, who was leaning against his chest.

He extended his long, jade-like hand and brushed the hair from Xiao Qingcheng’s forehead.

Then, a beam of light flew out from Qian Xun’s fingertips.

The next moment!

An agonizing scream of “Aaaaah!” pierced the sky.

The sound was so loud that it startled the birds in the withered forest.

“Honored One, kill him! Kill him!”

Little Pearl waved her little fists, hopping on Qian Xun’s shoulder in anger.

“His life should be left for Cheng’er to claim.”

With that, Qian Xun picked up the unconscious Xiao Qingcheng horizontally.

With a leap, he soared into the air.

Facing the cool night breeze, he swiftly teleported through the moonlight.

Inside a luxurious guest room in Xiao City,

Qian Xun looked at Xiao Qingcheng, who was covered in blood, and slightly furrowed his brows.

Little Pearl, whose paws had just been medicated, sniffled and complained, “Ouch, it hurts. Honored One, where did you go? Didn’t you say you’d come back after Master left Xiao Family Town?”

Qian Xun sat on the edge of the bed, gently taking off Xiao Qingcheng’s soiled and blood-stained dress.

“I saw you two leave Xiao Family Town and temporarily returned to the Immortal Mansion.”

“No wonder! If Honored One had come back any later, both Master and I would have been done for!”

Qian Xun squinted his eyes, looking at the woman on the bed, and shook his head slightly: “Cheng’er has the Seven Constellations Jade Bead inside her. If her life was in danger, the bead wouldn’t just stand by.”

With that, he gently lifted Xiao Qingcheng, who had been undressed, and slowly walked to the bathtub behind the screen.
