"I appreciate your kindness, Master, but there's no need for you to trouble yourself with either me or my family."
Yura's voice, calm yet tinged with mockery, rang out close to Hongmei's ear. Yes, just moments before, as Hongmei was gloating, Yura's lifeless eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light.
The two were already very close, almost kissing. Before Hongmei could react, Yura grabbed Hongmei's neck with her left hand, and with a swift movement, she summoned a lightsaber with her right hand, piercing Hongmei's abdomen.
Standing up, she gave Hongmei a gentle push, causing her to stumble backward. She staggered several steps before finally regaining her balance.
"How is that possible? Why are you completely unaffected?" Hongmei was still puzzled. In her imagination, even if Yura could withstand it, she would still be greatly affected.
But now Yura is just standing here unharmed. This is not scientific, no, it's not surreal. I'm reporting her for cheating!
"Nothing is impossible, it's just that you haven't mastered it yet."
As Yura spoke, she raised her right hand. If she wanted, she could detonate the lightsaber right now, and then the Red Demon would surely die.
"Not quite there yet? Hahaha..." Red Charm suddenly burst into laughter, looking at Yura and saying, "How pitiful, how truly pitiful. I never dreamed that you would feel no hatred whatsoever towards Mondstadt."
“This time I’m the one who got caught. But don’t you think you’re ridiculous? Killing someone who truly understands you for a city that doesn’t love you, how ridiculous, how utterly ridiculous.”
She was referring, of course, to Wu Qiu, who was lying on the ground. In her view, Yura could have easily run away with Wu Qiu. But she didn't; instead, in order to eliminate herself, a potential threat to Mondstadt, she didn't hesitate to kill her own companion.
"You mean that guy?" Yura looked at Wu Qiu and raised her voice, "If you don't get up soon, I'm going to hold a grudge again."
As soon as Yura finished speaking, she saw Wu Qiu, who had been dead and whose body was cold, move his head and then raise his head to peek.
Upon seeing the situation, Wu Qiu jumped up. Brushing the frost off his body, Wu Qiu ran towards Yura while shivering.
"I'm freezing to death, Yura. You didn't really freeze me halfway up, did you? I'm so cold. Luckily it's summer, or I'd be stiff as a board by now."
Yura didn't look at Wu Qiu. Hong Mei, however, stared at Wu Qiu with wide eyes, ignoring her wounds and shaking her head, saying, "How is this possible? How could you not be dead? I saw you being pierced by the lightsaber with my own eyes."
Wu Qiu put his hands on his hips and tilted his head back, recalling what had just happened. It turned out that what pierced Wu Qiu was not a lightsaber, but a real ice sword.
That was truly terrifying, but what frightened Wu Qiu wasn't that Yura wanted to kill him, but rather Yura's strength. In an instant, an ice sword condensed in the sky and swiftly pierced towards Wu Qiu.
Of course, this wasn't the most outrageous part. The most outrageous part was that just as the ice sword was about to pierce Wu Qiu's body, it began to dissipate, little by little, starting with the tip and then the body.
These dissipating cold currents bypassed Wu Qiu and condensed on his chest, creating the illusion that Wu Qiu had been pierced through.
After hearing Wu Qiu's words, Hong Mei was even more incredulous. "Aren't you afraid of death? Such exquisite control of ice elements, if you make a mistake, you'll die."
“Afraid? Of course I’m afraid.” Wu Qiu stepped forward. “In fact, I wasn’t sure whether Yura was being manipulated or not until a moment before she made her move.”
"But I believe she won't. Although we haven't known each other for long, at least Yura has genuine love for Mondstadt, and she won't be swayed by your words. I still believe that."
Wu Qiu spoke very seriously, and Yura behind him didn't say a word, but her eyes held a lot more meaning as she looked at Wu Qiu.
"Why? She's clearly Lawrence..."
Hong Mei wanted to say something more, but Wu Qiu interrupted her, saying, "Because he's a friend, a partner, and my captain. Isn't that enough?"
Chapter 121: The Wind Without Form
"Friends, partners, isn't that enough?" Wu Qiu's words kept echoing in Yura's mind. "Yes, is this enough? Do I really have enough faith in myself?"
Regardless of bloodline or family, even if one is a descendant of a sinner, is it impossible to simply be friends and trustworthy partners?
Wu Qiu's words were a wake-up call for Yura. Although she often said, "Why does everyone care so much about her bloodline?"
But in reality, she herself is the one who cares most. At the same time, she also believes she needs to do something to earn her friends' trust.
But isn't trust the most basic thing between friends and partners? Why trust? Because they are partners and friends, nothing more.
"Hehehe... Ridiculous." Red Enchantress's laughter rang out once more. She forced herself to stand upright, her eyes fixed on Yura, and asked, "Why wait until now? Why didn't you kill me? Or were you waiting for me to give up and leave on my own?"
Yura's expression changed visibly, and she stepped forward to shield Wu Qiu behind her. At the same time, she looked at Hong Mei and said, "You should leave. I don't want to kill anyone."
Wu Qiu was taken aback. Hong Mei, however, burst into laughter. "Ridiculous! Do you think I'm stupid? The power of the lightsaber has already merged into my body. You can kill me at any time."
"But you didn't, because you discovered that as long as I die, the Lightning of No Form will go out of control, and then you will also be in danger."
With that, Crimson Charm took a few steps back, spread her arms, turned her back to the Lightning Impermanence, and slowly rose into the air. "Let me see, raging Lightning Impermanence, whether you can survive."
"Back off!" Yura gestured for Wu Qiu to back off, then raised her hand and clenched it tightly.
Boom!!
With a deafening roar, the lightsaber exploded, kicking up a cloud of dust. In the thick fog, Yura grabbed Wu Qiu and turned to run.
Behind him, Wu Qiu noticed that the lightning element in the sky had become significantly more violent, with purple lightning bolts falling indiscriminately and carpet-bombing the ground.
Finally, just as a bolt of lightning was about to strike the two of them, Yura shoved Wu Qiu to the ground, then turned around and held her sword horizontally in front of her chest.
With a loud bang, when Wu Qiu looked up, he saw Yura fly out, roll twice on the ground, and quickly get up.
Lightning elemental energy surrounded her, with purple lightning crackling around her, clearly paralyzing her body. At the same time, Yura was using ice elemental energy to resist this power, but it was obviously very difficult.
Turning around and looking up at the sky, Wu Qiu saw the enormous Formless Lightning. Above the sky, the Formless Lightning radiated purple light, and thick bolts of lightning shot out from its body, ravaging the surrounding earth.
"What's going on here? Is this still the Lightning of No Form?"
Before Wu Qiu could react, Yura stepped forward, grabbed him, and threw him behind her, saying, "You go first."
Having said that, he charged straight at the Lightning Hypostasis. The Lightning Hypostasis was far superior to Yola in rank, and as an elemental being, it was also far more powerful in combat than Yola, who was human.
I can transform each of the stones on my body. One of them transforms into a drill that collides with Yura's greatsword, while the other two transform into longswords that slash down but are blocked by Yura's lightsaber.
Having reached this point, they had almost reached the entirety of Yura. But for the Thunder Hypostasis, this was only the beginning.
Thunderclouds covered the sky, as if a bolt of lightning was sweeping towards Yura. Yura definitely couldn't defend against such an attack, so she could only dodge to the side.
But just as he dodged that thunderous blow, he was struck head-on by a fist, sending him flying backward and crashing to the ground.
"No, no, Yura is no match for her at all. This Lightning Hypostasis is simply overpowered."
Wu Qiu, watching from afar, was very anxious, but there seemed to be nothing he could do but watch helplessly. After all, he was still too weak to face an enemy of this level.
"Is there anything that can counteract the Lightning of the Formless? Is there anything...?"
Suddenly, Wu Qiu looked at the Formless Wind. "That's right! There's another one here, also Formless, their strength should be about the same."
Thinking it over, Wu Qiu ran up in a few quick steps. The Hilichurl shaman was still dancing there, and without saying a word, Wu Qiu raised a brick and smashed it over the shaman's forehead.
One was swung away, sending one flying, but the other Hilichurl shamans continued dancing, making no move. Clearly, they were being controlled, their commands being simply to dance and chant spells.
He raised his hand, and a large brick appeared out of thin air. With a flick of his wrist, he sent all the Hilichurl Shamans flying.
Wu Qiu quickly stepped forward and arrived in front of the Formless Wind. Looking at the red mist on the thing, Wu Qiu hoped that he would not be controlled.
"Wind without form, wind without form! Can you hear me?"
"Who?" a weak voice rang out. Although he couldn't see the face, Wu Qiu was certain that the Formless Wind was watching him.
"You can talk?"
"Of course you can, right?"
Wu Qiugang was surprised that the Formless Wind could speak, and then he was retorted by the Formless Wind in front of him.
"No, it's your temper..."
"What's wrong with my temper! You're not happy about it? Then shut up!"
Wu Qiu was rebuked again. He was very confused. Was this the right situation? Logically speaking, Wu Xiang Zhi Zhi shouldn't be an arrogant old man; he should be a very proud and powerful person.
He's acting like a thug. But now's not the time to be angry with him; Yura is already injured, and it'll be really dangerous if we wait any longer.
"Quickly, quick, help me! Let's kill the Thunder of No Form together!"
Wu Qiu pointed at the Formless Thunder. The Formless Wind seemed to glance at it, then decisively said, "I can't do it."
"Why?? You can't beat him?" Wu Qiu asked anxiously.
"Your words are like farts! I'm locked up right now! Can't you see that?"
Wu Qiu examined it carefully. "If that's the case, what can I do to save you?"
At this point, the Wind of No Form seemed to shake its head, "There's nothing I can do. That poison directly corroded my elemental core. There's nowhere to go, and it's impossible to break free."
Wu Qiu immediately became anxious upon hearing this, "I'm not saying this to be mean, but how come you're even less useful than me? Look at that person's Formless Lightning, how cool is that? And look at you."
The Wind Without Form was also enraged: "Emma, what a load of rubbish! Wasn't he controlled too? He's even worse off than me!"
Wu Qiu: "But he's more handsome than you now."
The Wind Without Form: "What good is being handsome!"
Wu Qiu: "But they are already more capable than you now."
The Wind Without Form: "I can easily beat him!"
Wu Qiu: "But the key is that you don't have hands."
Wuxiangzhifeng: "If you keep chatting like this, you'll have no friends left."
Wu Qiu: "Whether he has friends or not is another matter. You need to come up with a plan to deal with him."
The Formless Wind: "I can't get out."
Wu Qiu: "That means you're useless."
The Wind Without Form: "I'll fucking kill you!!!"
Wu Qiu clashed with Wu Xiang Zhi Feng. If Wu Xiang Zhi Feng weren't currently immobilized, he would most likely have come out and taken down Wu Qiu first.
With a thud, Wu Qiu saw an object fall to the ground, kicking up dust. When the smoke cleared, Wu Qiu saw Yura, who was already seriously injured.
She tried to escape, but the Lightning Hypostasis clearly wouldn't give her a chance. The frenzied attacks forced Yura into a passive defensive posture, struggling for a sliver of life amidst the storm-like assault.
"Oh dear, what a poor child. His body must have been paralyzed, and his internal organs must have been damaged by the electric shock. It's a miracle that he can still stand."
"But it's a good thing she's managed to hold on until now. That guy, the Lightning of the Formless, is deadly and troublesome to you flesh and blood beings. It seems this kid is doomed today."
The Wind Without Form spoke up sarcastically from the side. Wu Qiu didn't want to pay him any attention at this point. Since he couldn't get through to the Wind Without Form, he had no choice but to take matters into his own hands.
Although this was tantamount to suicide, Wu Qiu couldn't accept watching Yura be beaten to death. Besides, given the chance, they might have been able to escape.
"What? You want to go? Don't be impulsive. With your strength, you'll just die and cause more trouble."
The Wind Without Form seemed to have seen through Wu Qiu's intentions, and spoke in a sarcastic tone. Although it was advising Wu Qiu to calm down, it sounded like it was mocking him.
"You can stay here. Whether we die or run away, the out-of-control Lightning Hypostasis won't let you go. Who knows what will happen to you, the Wind Hypostasis, who can't resist it?"
Wu Qiu spoke in a sarcastic tone, then glanced at him sideways before turning and walking towards the battlefield, leaving Wu Xiang Zhi Feng seemingly stunned in place.
"That makes sense... Hey, hey! Don't go, don't go! I have a plan, come back!!!"
Behind him, the voice of the Aspect of Wind rang out, showing that he finally realized, "I'm not a spectator or an outsider. The Lightning of the Aspect has gone out of control. I'm doomed."
