Chapter 47 A Vortex of Destiny, the First Signs of Ambiguity

Dai Yao felt like a sock in a washing machine, being spun and wrung out by an invisible hand. Her internal organs felt like they were being twisted into a pretzel. This vortex of fate was truly "vortex-like," almost causing her soul to leave her body. It felt as if her soul was about to be sucked away and turned into a drifting fan in the next second.

It felt like countless ants were gnawing inside my body, the pain was so intense that my vision blurred, and the surrounding space was distorted like a funhouse mirror, making it impossible to tell which way was which.

"Oh no, Barbie Q is here!" Dai Yao cried out in her heart, "Did I transmigrate here just to experience being a human blender?"

Just when she thought she was about to become the first transmigrator to be drained dry by the vortex of fortune, a sudden inspiration struck her: "Wait, my cheat ability! I can sense the direction of fortune flow!"

Dai Yao endured the excruciating pain of her soul being torn apart, concentrating her mind to perceive the flow of Qi. Although it was as difficult as finding a ray of light in a raging storm or finding a specific silly netizen in a vast sea of ​​people, she had to do it.

It's done! Dai Yao sensed that the vortex's power was uneven, like a tattered rag riddled with holes.

She struggled to adjust her posture, moving like a nimble eel towards the weakest point in her luck, as thrilling as finding the key in the last second of an escape room. Finally, she steadied herself; though on the edge of the vortex, she wasn't sucked in. She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as happy as if she had been reborn.

“You…” a deep voice sounded in my ear.

"You...you weren't sucked in?" Yingfeng's voice was filled with disbelief, his emerald green eyes flashing with a strange light. He wore a long, dark robe with mysterious silver runes embroidered on the cuffs, as if he had stepped out of a traditional Chinese ink painting. He looked at Dai Yao as if she were a strange creature.

Dai Yao rolled her eyes. "Big brother, do I look weak? I'm a transmigrator with amazing skills. The Qi Vortex is a piece of cake!" She patted her chest casually, but in her heart she was thinking: If I didn't have a cheat, I would already be performing as a human propeller in the vortex.

Yingfeng raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly disbelieving Dai Yao's explanation. He reached out, his slender fingers, cool to the touch, and touched Dai Yao's forehead. "Are you sure you're alright? Disordered Qi is no small matter; in severe cases, it can lead to the destruction of one's soul and spirit."

Dai Yao was startled and quickly stepped back, covering her forehead. "Don't touch me! Men and women shouldn't touch each other! I'm perfectly fine, even more bouncy than the tapioca pearls in bubble tea!"

Yingfeng's hand froze in mid-air, a hint of embarrassment flashing in his eyes. He withdrew his hand and coughed lightly, "I was being presumptuous. You strange little girl, you're quite interesting."

However, the brief, ambiguous atmosphere was broken by a chilling laugh.

"Hey, the big villain Dai Yao, all lovey-dovey with some random guy here?" Xingying and Ziyou appeared, their faces full of mocking smiles and their eyes full of malice.

Xingying licked her lips, her greedy gaze sweeping over Dai Yao. "It seems the vortex of fortune has no effect on you. Perfect, I'll gladly accept your fortune!"

Zi You echoed in a sinister tone, "That's right, obediently hand over your luck and you'll suffer less physical pain!"

Dai Yao immediately dropped her playful smile, her eyes turning sharp, and grabbed Ying Feng's sleeve. "You block Xing Ying for me, I'll deal with Zi You!"

Shadow Wind: ...

"What are you standing there for! Go!" Dai Yao yanked Ying Feng's sleeve, causing him to stumble and almost fall flat on his face.

Before he could react, Dai Yao had already rushed towards Zi You, shouting as she ran, "Handsome guy! Take this! Yao Yao's heart bomb!"

Although the move looked strange, Dai Yao was agile and moved like a ghost. In a few flashes, she circled behind Zi You and suddenly had a gleaming dagger in her hand, pointing directly at Zi You's vitals.

Zi You was shocked and quickly dodged, but Dai Yao was faster. Her dagger tore through his sleeve, leaving a bloody mark.

"Oops, sorry, my hand slipped." Dai Yao stuck out her tongue, looking completely innocent.

Zi You's face turned ashen with rage. Just as she was about to retaliate, she saw Ying Feng attack Xing Ying. Although Ying Feng appeared weak, his attacks were anything but hesitant. He brandished his longsword, the sword energy like a rainbow, forcing Xing Ying to retreat repeatedly.

Dai Yao and Ying Feng worked together seamlessly, with one taking the lead in the attack and the other providing support, causing Xing Ying and Zi You to retreat in defeat.

Xingying roared, his eyes flashing with ferocity, "You ants, how dare you hurt me!" His spiritual power surged, and he attacked Dai Yao frantically.

Just as Xingying's attack was about to land on Dai Yao, Yingfeng suddenly flashed in front of her and took the hit head-on.

"Cough cough..." Yingfeng groaned, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Dai Yao felt a tightness in her heart, and a warm feeling welled up inside her.

"Are you alright?" She quickly helped Yingfeng up, her eyes filled with worry.

"I'm fine." Yingfeng shook his head, his face somewhat pale.

Seeing Yingfeng injured, Dai Yao was furious.

She took a deep breath, formed a hand seal, and chanted, "Heaven and earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast and boundless... Yao Yao's invincible love bomb—launch!"

The moment the enormous pink orb of light shot out, the surrounding air seemed to ignite. A scorching current of air swept outwards from the orb's center, carving deep trenches into the ground wherever it went. Faced with this world-destroying force, Xingying was as vulnerable as an ant, instantly blasted away and crashing heavily to the ground, his fate unknown.

When Zi You saw Xing Ying being instantly killed, she was so frightened that she turned around and ran away, faster than a rabbit.

"Phew..." Dai Yao breathed a sigh of relief, watching Zi You disappear into the distance, and patted her chest. "Thank goodness, it's finally over." She turned to look at Ying Feng and saw him staring intently at her with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Dai Yao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at.

Yingfeng slowly spoke: "What...what move did you just use?"

Dai Yao chuckled: "Our family's secret techniques are never passed on to outsiders!"

Suddenly, an unusual fluctuation emanated from the depths of the vortex of fortune. The two turned their heads simultaneously, and Yingfeng's expression hardened. "It... seems to be about to begin..."

Deep within the vortex of fortune, multicolored light flowed like liquid, exuding a mysterious aura. Dai Yao and Ying Feng cautiously approached, as if stepping into unknown territory. The surrounding air grew increasingly viscous, the oppressive feeling intensified, and breathing became somewhat difficult.

"Yao Yao Brand Protective Divine Skill, activated!" Dai Yao shouted casually, drawing circles in front of her chest with both hands and patting her chest in a serious manner.

Yingfeng watched her comical actions, his lips twitching slightly, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his eyes. "This woman is really... special."

As they ventured deeper, a colossal rune gradually emerged at the center of the vortex, radiating an ancient and mysterious aura. The rune's lines were intricate, writhing like tadpoles, shimmering with strange light, dazzling the eye.

"What kind of weird drawing is this?" Dai Yao's eyes widened, feeling like her brain couldn't process it all.

Yingfeng frowned, carefully examining the runes, and said in a deep voice, "These runes... seem to be some kind of ancient script that I have never seen before."

"Ancient script? Wouldn't that be very difficult to decipher?" Dai Yao's face fell immediately, feeling that her hopes were slim.

Yingfeng didn't speak, but reached out and gently touched the rune with his fingertips. In an instant, a powerful force surged from the rune, knocking him back several steps.

"Holy crap! This thing is electrified?" Dai Yao quickly stepped forward to support him, her face full of worry.

Yingfeng shook his head, his face pale but his eyes resolute. "This rune contains immense power; it won't be easy to break."

"Don't worry! Yao Yao's all-purpose decoder is online!" Dai Yao took out an ordinary-looking stone and solemnly gestured towards the runes. "I've had this stone with me since I transmigrated here. I never knew what it was for, but I felt a special connection to it, just like how I would take out the lucky charm my mother gave me whenever I encountered difficulties in my original world. Let me see what this thing is all about..."

Yingfeng: "..." Is this stone something you didn't pick up from the roadside?

Just as Dai Yao was pretending to study the "decoder," the runes suddenly shone brightly, and a powerful suction force pulled them towards the center.

Dai Yao gasped and instinctively grabbed Ying Feng's hand. Their eyes met in mid-air, Ying Feng's hand stiffened slightly, and his heart seemed to skip a beat.

"Hold on tight!" His deep voice rang out amidst the chaotic airflow, carrying a hint of barely perceptible tension.

"Okay!" Dai Yao held his hand tightly, feeling the warmth of his palm, and a strange sense of security welled up in her heart.

The light, like a surging tide, instantly engulfed them. Dai Yao felt as if she had been swept into the core of the universe; everything around her disappeared, leaving only Ying Feng and the endless light.

She held Yingfeng's hand tightly, as if it were her only support in this chaotic world. Yingfeng held her hand just as tightly, his eyes firm and deep. The two of them were like statues frozen in time in the light, while the surrounding runes and light were like a huge monster, baring its fangs and claws, enveloping them. This scene was imprinted on this mysterious space like a brand.

Suddenly, Dai Yao felt the stone in her hand heat up slightly. Then, a beam of light shot out from the stone, illuminating everything around her. Under the light, the lines on the runes began to flow slowly, eventually converging into a clear character—"Fate".

Dai Yao and Ying Feng were both stunned. What did this mean?

“Fate…” Yingfeng murmured to himself, his gaze falling on Dai Yao, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Dai Yao blinked, but before she could speak, she felt an even more powerful force surge towards them, completely engulfing them...

“Wait! My Yao Yao brand…” Dai Yao’s voice stopped abruptly.
