Chapter 1555: Ambush
Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins
In the cold, secret chamber, Mei Ji was restless but she didn’t know why. She vaguely felt an invisible danger awaiting her.
It was her premonition.
She looked at Shi Yan who was sitting on an ice rock. Her exquisite brows furrowed, her face worried.
This time, it took Shi Yan a long time to refine the energy. Perhaps it was because he had taken in so many experts. The situation was getting worse and she had disclosed Shi Yan’s whereabouts in the secret meeting of the Phantom Clan…
Pondering, she regretted that she had disclosed his whereabouts.
She was afraid of the external members, the chiefs of the clans dependent on the Phantom Clan. They might reveal Shi Yan’s location.
If so, the experts like Serene Prison, Edgar, Beverly, and Rupert would come to the headquarters of the Phantom Clan with all of their forces. Destroying Shi Yan was their priority.
Jingle! Jingle!
The rushing bell jingling came from a rhombus crystal on her creamy neck. This crystal connected directly to the magical information crystal of the Phantom Clan’s information center.
Her beautiful eyes looked discontent. She cursed something under her breath and then used her Soul Consciousness to connect to the Sound Stone.
A soul message bloomed in her head. Mei Ji’s exquisite face turned serious. She hurried to set up layers of barriers and left the chamber.
She came to a strange room tiled with crystals. Looking at around a dozen beautiful girls moving between the crystals, her cold voice arose, “What happened? Didn’t I ask you to report to Grannie directly if you got some problem? Why do you have to disturb me?”
“Grannie left several days ago. She went to an asteroid field to discuss with Hiro of the White Bone Clan,” said a young girl, bowing slightly. “You also ordered us to report to you first if it’s related to Cloud Mist Territory.”
As Mei Ji heard that Montecie wasn’t here, she didn’t sound harsh anymore, “What happened?”
“The information about Cloud Mist Territory is disclosed. Many people know that Shi Yan and his family, friends are living in Cloud Mist Territory. And now, the warriors of the four clans have departed to Cloud Mist Territory. We’re worried that the territory will fall. Thus, we reported to you for a solution,” said the girl while shivering.
Mei Ji’s face turned cold. “Not many people know Shi Yan’s family stays in Cloud Mist Territory. It must be someone among us! Investigate! We must figure out who!”
“We also thought that it was from someone among us,” the girl shook like a leaf and lowered her voice. “I’m sure that there is a traitor. Otherwise, the information wouldn’t have spread out so quickly! Only our Phantom Clan has the capacity to send information to every corner of the universe shortly.”
Hearing her, Mei Ji was more outraged. She guessed that this could relate to Cantecie and Fan De Lei. She knew that it was the trap they had plotted against Shi Yan.
She had to solve this urgent matter!
—————————————
At the same time, Zhen Ru in Mei Ji’s disguise quietly sneaked into Mei Ji’s secret chamber. Her bearings, aura, and soul energy fluctuation weren’t different from Mei Ji. Cantecie couldn’t distinguish her, either.
As the most excellent expert of Myriad Shape Tribe, Zhen Ru had cultivated the innate supernatural ability of her clan to an utterly high level. She could change her appearance into any creature with one flicker of her thoughts.
Mei Ji’s chamber was built right under her palace with icy layers of barriers. Once someone intruded, Mei Ji could feel it immediately.
Thus, Mei Ji could leave her room to go to the information center without too much concern.
She was confident that even Cantecie and Montecie couldn’t sneak through her sensitivity to break the barrier quietly to intrude Shi Yan’s chamber.
Unfortunately, it was Zhen Ru, the grandmaster of the disguising technique in this world.
Layers of icy barriers shone in cold lights. There were dozens of them. As soon as some other energy touched them, it would activate Mei Ji’s Soul Consciousness, which would alert Mei Ji shortly.
Zhen Ru in Mei Ji’s shape landed on the first icy barrier. A strange suction force came out from her body and absorbed the energy on the barrier. Right after, Zhen Ru’s body turned transparent like the barrier as she got the matched aura with the barrier.
It was like Zhen Ru became a barrier of this group or became a part of the barrier.
After turning into a crystal layer of ice, she landed on the barrier and slowly blended with it.
After a while, Zhen Ru disappeared. A light dot in the icy barrier slowly lowered and seeped through many layers…
It didn’t activate the barriers or touch Mei Ji’s Soul Consciousness. Of course, it didn’t alarm Mei Ji.
Using the same method, Zhen Ru turned into a light dot and seeped through each barrier until she reached the bottom.
So many icy dots congregated and turned into Mei Ji’s shape.
She smiled and used her similar appearance and aura. Slowly, she moved gracefully towards the center of the chamber. Her charming eyes gazed at Shi Yan naturally.
“I’m back. They had a little trouble outside I had to solve.” She smiled and talked to herself, “You’ve spent a lot of time to refine energy this time. The world out there is about to explode. The leaders of the four clans are aiming at the Phantom Clan and the White Bone Clan…”
She briefed the situation of the galaxy and then came to Shi Yan. Observing him for a while, she mumbled, “I hope you wake up soon.”
Then, she stroked his cheeks and fondled the stubble on his face, her face passionate.
Even if Mei Ji was here herself, she would think that she was watching herself in the mirror. Zhen Ru’s acting was simply superb. Her soul energy and her icy aura completely matched with Mei Ji.
Shi Yan sank into his energy refining process. As he smelled a familiar aura and coldness, he wasn’t skeptical at all. He thought that it was Mei Ji.
“You rascal…”
Zhen Ru stooped and groaned as if she was aroused. Her ivory hands slowly slid downward towards Shi Yan’s chest.
Strange light dots from her slim, pointy fingertips seeped into Shi Yan’s skin. Those light dots were so tiny that the soul couldn’t recognize it. Shi Yan was concentrating on refining the energy. He just felt a light chill on his skin, so he didn’t mind it.
Zhen Ru mumbled, her hands wandering around Shi Yan’s hunky torso and her eyes twinkling. Slowly, she stopped caressing him and sat right in front of him.
She just watched Shi Yan like that.
Time flew hurriedly.
After a while, Shi Yan’s body shook abruptly as if he was enduring pain.
“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!”
Small insects singing arose from his body. He could feel some tiny creatures slowly nibbling his flesh and blood. Those tiny creatures were also reproducing quickly in his veins and bones. Their tiny bodies slowly enlarged.
Waves of pain came from his entire body. He immediately recognized the danger.
Opening his eyes, Shi Yan was baffled as he looked at Mei Ji smiling in front of him. “Why? Why did you ambush me?”
“Because you’re such a lady’s man. I got the news that you have a fierce girlfriend called Zi Yao. That woman is an Absolute Beginning creature, right?” Zhen Ru used Mei Ji’s tone to talk. “Do you feel enough with her? Did you spare a spot in your heart for me? The worms I sent to your body could keep you on myself. You belong to me! Only me!”
“What the heck are you doing? Are you crazy?” Shi Yan’s face darkened. “My cultivation is at the critical moment! Do you want to kill me?”
He hadn’t recognized anything abnormal. He thought that she was actually Mei Ji.
The supernatural ability of the Myriad Shape Tribe was urged to the most exquisite level in Zhen Ru’s hands. Rumors weren’t wrong when they said that she could deceive even the most intimate partner.
Shi Yan couldn’t find anything different from the soul, aura, and her energy. Zhen Ru’s innate power was really superb.
Not many people knew that Zhen Ru’s power was so magical that she could even copy the other’s soul altar, power Upanishad, and even the Soul seal!
“I want to see Power Upanishad Symbol Tower and Skyfall Star River. Can you show me?” Zhen Ru suddenly begged softly. “Those little worms are just a little prank. They will disappear shortly after. I just wanted to use them to wake you up and tell you the current situation. There’s something you need to know. People know your family and friends are living in Cloud Mist Territory. I’m worried…”
Magically, Shi Yan exhaled in relief as he thought that it was just a harmless prank. She just wanted to tell him the situation in Cloud Mist Territory. Waving his hands, he didn’t mind it. “You don’t need to worry about Cloud Mist Territory. Even if the four clans know the location, they can’t intrude.”
“Why?” Zhen Ru was surprised.
“Before I came here, I’d used the space energy to seal the entrance of Cloud Mist Territory. I’d also distorted its location too. Unless they have an expert cultivating Space power Upanishad at the same level, it won’t be simple to locate Cloud Mist Territory in this vast sea of stars.” Shi Yan was calm and at ease.
Before he came here, he had calculated everything. He knew that the four clans would come to take mad revenge. He had arranged everything.
As Zhen Ru was so surprised and skeptical, he gave a faint smile. “About Power Upanishad Symbol Tower and Skyfall Star River, if you want to see, I can show you. It’s not a big deal, is it?”
Then, he was about to urge his energy to take out Power Upanishad Symbol Tower and Skyfall Star River.
However, as soon as he wanted to take action, his face changed and screamed. “No! Those worms aren’t as simple as you said! ARRRGGGHH!”
He couldn’t help but roar as if he had to endure unimaginable pain. His flesh and blood were nibbled and swallowed.
“Hmm!” Zhen Ru looked content. She shook her head disdainfully and sneered, “I thought you were bold. Is that all you got? I trapped you easily. Not interesting at all.”
