Chapter 161: Death of Biyao i

Translator: 549690339

In the following days, Xue Liang would learn from Lin Yuan every day.

Of course, Xue Liang was also responsible for Lin Yuan’s daily dinner.

If Xue Liang’s cooking skills were measured by ability value, it would be at least over 600.

As for Jian Yi?

He received negative points and was kicked out.

However, Jian Yi didn’t give up. He lent a hand to Xue Liang every day, learning how to cook.

However, this made the senior-junior relationship even more complicated.

Xue Liang was Lin Yuan’s apprentice in the first place. After learning to cook from Xue Liang, Jian Yi felt that he had inexplicably become Lin Yuan’s grand-disciple?

Uh…

Maybe everyone should just keep to their respective roles.

After each lesson, Lin Yuan would check Xue Liang’s ability value.

He knew very well that Xue Liang’s ability value was steadily increasing.

At this rate, it would only be a matter of time before Xue Liang reached the level of a gold medal composer.

By this time, it was already October.

Meanwhile, in the neighboring Qin Continent, the latest volume of “Zhu Xian” was officially released!

The world of “Zhu Xian” was already fully unfolded.

The disputes between Biyao Party and Xue Qi Party were intensifying.

Regardless of whether they supported Biyao or Lu Xueqi, both characters had amassed a huge following!

All this popularity translated into the readers’ affection for the novel.

So whenever a new chapter of “Zhu Xian” was released, readers couldn’t wait to devour it.

However…

Upon reading the latest volume…

The truth about the annihilation of Caomiao Village was revealed to be the work of Puzhi, who had once saved both Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu. Zhang Xiaofan was already filled with murderous intent and began to deviate from the righteous path.

The readers’ hearts clenched in sympathy.

The big climax came when Ghost King attacked, and the Immortal Slayer Sword finally appeared.

Many readers were greatly moved by this scene!

But no one expected that the first person the Immortal Slayer Sword would be used against was Zhang Xiaofan. At this point, the demon-infested Zhang Xiaofan had become a serious threat in the eyes of the Qingyun Sect Leader- Zhang Xiaofan was doomed to die.

The readers were on tenterhooks.

Subsequently, a scene that shocked all readers to the core ensued!

Just as the Immortal Slayer Sword was about to strike Zhang Xiaofan, a figure clothed in green stepped in front of him!

“Nine Nether Ghosts, All Heaven Gods Demons, I sacrifice my body for you.” “Through three lives and seven worlds, forever falling into the yin realms, all for love, no regrets even in death…”

It was Biyao!

At the brink of life and death, it was Biyao who stood in front of Zhang Xiaofan. She was willing to scatter her soul and body as a price to bear the power of the Immortal Slayer Sword for Zhang Xiaofan!

The turbulent wind suddenly changed direction, forming a huge vortex around Biyao.

The gentle and pretty woman was pushed into the air by the wind, facing that giant, seven-color-roving sword.

At that moment, she was the only radiance between the heaven and earth!

When the unstoppable Immortal Slayer Sword struck down, a bang echoed throughout the world.

Vaguely, a slender and sorrowful figure slowly fell from mid-air.

All of a sudden, the world fell silent.

Zhang Xiaofan reached out to grasp her but caught nothing.

What fell into his hand was a torn piece of green garment.

“Why were you so foolish… I haven’t told you yet, the person I saw in that ancient well was you…”

Zhang Xiaofan was utterly dejected.

Countless readers were dumbstruck by this plot twist that would undoubtedly turn the whole story around!

Some readers even cursed loudly!

Biyao, she… she was actually dead?

Many people found it hard to accept this fact.

At that moment, whether it was the Biyao Party, Xue Qi Party, or the minority Harem Party, everyone was emotionally charged. They vented their feelings on relevant forums:

“Chu Kuang, you old rascal!”

“Bring Biyao back!”

“I’m freaking crying. The thing is, I’ve always been a staunch supporter of Xue Qi, but Biyao really is… I’ll never badmouth Biyao again…”

“Chu Kuang, the old rascal, deserves death!”

“Give me the Immortal Slayer Sword, I’ll be the first to kill Chu Kuang!”

“Ah ah ah ah ah ah I’m crying my eyes out!”

“Biyao is dead? Chu Kuang actually killed Biyao off?!”

“My favourite female character in this book was killed off by Chu Kuang.”

“The person Zhang Xiaofan saw in the Full Moon Antique Well was Biyao, but Biyao can’t hear this anymore. As a grown-ass man, my eyes are close to swollen from crying!”

This was a riot involving all readers of “Zhu Xian”. With this riot, Biyao’s popularity was pushed to its peak, outperforming Lu Xueqi for the first time by a landslide.

And on the day this volume of the novel was released, Chu Kuang’s Tribe discussion board was totally inundated.

All the comments from readers had only two intents:

Firstly, Chu Kuang, the old rascal, is completely unforgivable!

Secondly, Chu Kuang, the old rascal, must bring Biyao back!

The former is an expression of anger for Biyao’s death, while the latter is the overwhelming wish from countless readers for Biyao to be revived!

If anything could be worse than leaving a story unfinished, it would probably be killing off the readers’ favourite female character.

And Chu Kuang had committed both of these most despicable acts.

Not just the readers…

Even Silver Blue Books was shocked by this wave of outrage.

Especially when the editors of the Fantasy Department looked through the official website comments, refreshing almost every time to see countless new posts.

They felt like they were about to lose it.

“I knew it!”

“Before this volume was even released, I knew that the readers were going to explode.”

“If we knew that, we should have persuaded Chu Kuang to modify the manuscript.”

“When has Chu Kuang ever listened to our editorial advice?”

“No one can change Chu Kuang’s decisions. After all, he’s always been such a willful author.”

“Are the sales going to tank?”

“The audience is already seething!”

The editorial department of Silver Blue Books was facing such a shocking scene for the first time. So much so that the memory of today’s scene lingered for countless years, even invoking a sense of inexplicable fear.

Yes.

Almost all the readers of “Zhu Xian” were unhappy!

Even the most steadfast fans of Xue Qi couldn’t accept Biyao’s death, let alone those who had always loved Biyao so deeply…

You could tell by the change in the way they addressed him.

In the past, readers called him Master Chu Kuang.

Even if Chu Kuang teased readers by leaving chapters unfinished, people only complained a bit.

In the end, teasing was nevertheless due to the anticipation of the following plot.

This time it was different!

The readers’ reactions couldn’t be described merely as teasing anymore.

Chu Kuang had been downgraded from “Master” to the “old rascal” that was roundly condemned.

As many people said:

It wasn’t the Immortal Slayer Sword that killed Biyao, it was Chu Kuang, the old rascal!

But the novel has already been released, and there’s no turning back.

The readers could only hope that Biyao could be revived in the subsequent plot of “Zhu Xian”.

After all, this is a fantasy novel, so it’s not completely impossible for Biyao to be resurrected.

In the following days, many people were hoping for Chu Kuang to give a definitive response.

But Chu Kuang didn’t respond.

Even though at this moment, Lin Yuan had specially logged into his Tribe account to view the reactions of the readers from Qin Continent.

It’s not that Lin Yuan didn’t want to respond.

But Lin Yuan knew very well that the readers’ expectations were doomed to be unmet.

Although, in the subsequent plot of “Zhu Xian”, Zhang Xiaofan and the Ghost King Sect both tried their best to resurrect Biyao, but until the end of the novel, Biyao didn’t manage to come back to life…

The only thing left for readers was a trace of her unburnt green robe corner..
