I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Chapter 271 One “mother” with two “children”!

Li Chen looked at the two fairies in front of him who were making bold statements to him with great interest, and he had already guessed their identities in his heart.

Among the three famous fairies, Fairy Yunxiao has always been known for her understanding and reasonableness; the other two, Fairy Qiongxiao is notorious for her eccentric temperament and moodiness, making it difficult to understand her thoughts; as for Fairy Bixiao, she is very lively and cute, and occasionally reveals some little girl's heart, which makes people laugh.

At this moment, Fairy Yunxiao saw her two sisters acting so arrogantly and domineeringly. She frowned and immediately stopped them, saying, "Second sister, third sister, please don't be rude!" As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and bowed slightly to Li Chen, then said politely, "Fellow Daoist Li Chen, please forgive me! I have spoiled these two little sisters so much. Their behavior today was really too much. I apologize to you on their behalf!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chen raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled softly, saying, "No problem, no problem! Why would I bother with these two fairies? Besides, if I remember correctly, the three fairies came here this time, probably on the orders of your great-grandmaster Tongtian, to retrieve the spirit of the Rain Ancestral Witch, right?"

As he spoke, his eyes were always on Fairy Yunxiao, and he secretly admired the fairy's gentleness, dignity, and knowledge.

I think that during the Battle of the Gods, if it weren't for the many entanglements of cause and effect, perhaps this fairy would not have been involved in the dispute and lost her life.

"That's right! We are here for the spirit of Xuanming, the ancestor of rain! Please don't obstruct us!"

Fairy Yunxiao continued to speak politely. Every expression and every movement of hers seemed to have a unique charm that attracted people involuntarily.

Whether it's the slightly raised corners of her mouth or the gentle blink of her eyes, she exudes a charming radiance. The maturity and elegance she displays in her interactions with others is even more admirable.

Her every move was perfect, neither rude nor unrestrained, her demeanor as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring. All of this made Li Chen, who was standing by, feel an indescribable sense of joy, as if he were bathed in warm sunshine.

However, this wonderful atmosphere did not last long and was soon ruthlessly broken by a sudden remark.

"Hey, did you hear that? Hurry and give us the Rain Witch's Soul!" Fairy Bixiao shouted impatiently. She had seen Li Chen and Fairy Yunxiao talking for a long time without Li Chen handing over the Rain Witch's Soul, and she was getting a little anxious.

"That's right, you should hand over the spirit of the Rain Ancestral Witch as soon as possible! Don't waste everyone's time here! The three of us still have to return to the Biyou Palace to meet the leader!" At this time, Fairy Qiongxiao also echoed.

She has always had a fiery temper, even more so than Fairy Bixiao. Although her personality may be slightly more mature than Fairy Bixiao, it is actually not much better.

If Fairy Bixiao still had a touch of girlish playfulness and mischief in her personality, Fairy Qiongxiao possessed a greater degree of impatience and impulsiveness. At this moment, the two of them stood there, staring intently at Li Chen, as if determined to obtain the Rain Ancestral Witch's spirit.

"Second sister, third sister! Please stop talking!" Fairy Yunxiao looked helpless and annoyed. She looked at her two sisters arguing with each other and felt a headache coming on.

These two sisters were such a worry, each more stubborn than the other. Clearly, this negotiation with Li Chen was crucial. With a little more patience and strategy, she was confident she could convince him to hand over the Rain Witch's spirit. But what happened now? Because of their impulsiveness and recklessness, the situation was getting worse.

Fairy Yunxiao sighed and shook her head, feeling helpless. Meanwhile, Li Chen was puzzled. He had only heard a few details about the Conferred Gods War, but his understanding was limited. The fate of the Three Fairies was particularly unclear.

Li Chen was also a little fed up with Fairy Qiong Xiao and Fairy Bi Xiao standing beside Fairy Yun Xiao. These two people were really too annoying. Were they really immortals? He even suspected that Fairy Yun Xiao was killed by these two scoundrels during the Conferred God War!

So, Li Chen secretly asked the system: "System, system, let me ask, was Fairy Yunxiao killed by Qiongxiao and Bixiao during the Conferred God Battle?" His voice was filled with a hint of urgency, and he wanted to get a definite answer from the system.

Soon, the system responded: "Host, you are right! Fairy Yunxiao was killed by Zhao Gongming, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao! In order to avenge Zhao Gongming, the three fairies set up the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation. This formation is so powerful that it actually eliminated the cultivation of the 12 Golden Immortals of the Xianjiao in one fell swoop." Hearing this, Li Chen couldn't help but frowned, his heart full of emotion about this past event.

The system vividly described to Li Chen the thrilling scenes that took place during the Conferred Gods War. When the Three Fairies came up, Li Chen's eyes widened, his heart filled with shock and amazement. He could never have imagined that these three seemingly fragile women could possess such earth-shattering power.

Li Chen had heard of the 12 Golden Immortals of the Xianjiao Sect. Among them were Taiyi Zhenren, Nezha's master, and Yuding Zhenren, Yang Jian's teacher. It was said that each of these Golden Immortals possessed unique skills and immense powers.

However, the story wasn't over yet. The system continued, "Yuanshi Tianzun and Laozi personally came to the rescue, but during the negotiation, a fierce verbal conflict suddenly broke out between the two sides. Bixiao Fairy, enraged, lunged at Yuanshi Tianzun with her sword in hand. However, her flying sword was knocked to the ground by Baihe Tongzi, and Yuanshi Tianzun then produced a mysterious treasure box. With a whoosh, Bixiao Fairy was sucked into the box and transformed into blood. Poor Bixiao Fairy, she perished just like that."

Li Chen couldn't help but gasp at this. But the system didn't stop narrating: "Fairies Yunxiao and Qiongxiao, devastated by the loss of their sister, desperately rushed towards Yuanshi Tianzun, seeking revenge. Unfortunately, their strength was ultimately no match for Yuanshi Tianzun. Yuanshi Tianzun first summoned the Qiankun Diagram to suppress Fairy Yunxiao beneath the Qilin Cliff, then wielded the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi and fiercely smashed it against Fairy Qiongxiao, shattering her skull and killing her instantly!"

Li Chen couldn't calm down after hearing this bloody and cruel story. But according to Fairy Yunxiao's rational character, she shouldn't have been involved in this war!

You have to know that at that time, Tongtian Patriarch had already issued a house arrest order for all Jiejiao disciples, ordering them to close the mountain gates and not leave. How could Fairy Yunxiao, who is so sensible, not know this?

The system understood Li Chen's innermost thoughts and feelings perfectly. It continued slowly, "Indeed, Fairy Yunxiao, with her aloof, noble, and aloof nature, would be unlikely to voluntarily throw herself into such a bloody and cruel war. However, she harbors inseparable ties and concerns. Her eldest brother tragically passed away, and her two sisters, who had ventured down the mountain, were in danger. Add to that the malicious instigation of those with ulterior motives. These factors, like an invisible hand, pushed her step by step into the bottomless abyss of darkness!"

As the system finished speaking, long-forgotten memories began to flood into Li Chen's mind. It turned out that the system had relayed to him every detail related to the Three Heavenly Fairies during that thrilling Conferred Gods War.

After receiving all this information, Li Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion and blurted out, "Oh my, it seems Fairy Yunxiao has had a really hard life! She's like an exhausted mother taking care of two mischievous, trouble-making children!"
