Yue Chenqing's soul was about to dissipate. He was kicked several times by the Murong Lian before he let go pitifully.
Just like the rumor of Li Qingqian's Woman Weeping Mountain, a group of women dressed in dark red robes and wearing shoes embroidered with golden threads emerged from the darkness. They laughed bitterly as tears of blood flowed down their faces. More and more female corpses gathered in the cave. They appeared from the dark, behind the stone pillars, and even from the pool.
Mo Xi and the Murong Lian each dealt with one side. Yue Chenqing watched as they fought further and further away. He could not help but want to cry.
He said in a trembling voice, "Lord Xi He, Brother Murong, what should I do?"
Although there were no new corpses emerging from the place where he was standing, the surrounding terrain was complicated. Who knew if there was a pair of strange eyes with evil intentions staring at him in the dark?
However, things were often like this. What you did not want to happen the most often happened. "Who knows?" Usually, it would become reality.
Just as Yue Chenqing had this terrifying thought, he suddenly felt the hairs on his neck stand on end. He slowly turned his head to take a look, only to see half of a deathly pale face hidden behind a pile of rocks. Two streams of blood flowed down his face.
A woman was lying behind the rock and staring at him!
Yue Chenqing felt as if his head was about to explode as he trembled uncontrollably. When a person was at their most fearful, they would usually call out the person they trusted the most. Thus, the words that came out of his trembling lips were, "Fourth … Fourth Fourth Uncle!!"
His fourth uncle was not here. Of course, he would not save him.
Yue Chenqing only remembered this after he finished trembling. Even if he repeatedly shouted, "Fourth uncle, save me!" There were only the inhumane Murong Lian and Mo Xi in the cave. He had to choose one of the two.
He looked to his left and right and happened to see Mo Que on his left kick a row of female corpses. Mo Que felt as if a god had descended and hurriedly ran towards him.
But at this moment, the woman hiding behind the cave curved her lips exaggeratedly, revealing her white teeth. The first laugh was a tragic one, and the second laugh was a bloody one. She slowly crawled out from the depths of the rock and laughed for the third time. "Hehe …"
The Three Laughers cannot leave!!
The female corpse's resentment surged after the third laugh. Her eyes rolled and became bloodshot. Then, her fingernails grew several times longer than before.
She raised her head to the sky and let out a shriek before charging towards Yue Chenqing!
"Ah —!" Yue Chenqing didn't even know how to resist. He was most afraid of the female ghost wearing red clothes and embroidered shoes. When he saw her pouncing on him, he couldn't help but scream miserably. He was practically in tears. "Fourth Uncle!!"
At this critical moment, a thunderous boom was heard, and a bolt of lightning fell in front of Yue Chenqing. Suddenly, a string of golden-red streamers exploded on the ground, and a raging fire was ignited! Then, a figure leaped into the air and descended from the sky. Amidst the hissing light, he landed steadily in front of Yue Chenqing.
The person tilted his head. Under the crackling flames, half of his face was heroic and eye-catching. His pupils were overflowing with a cold blue light.
Gu Mang?!
Yue Chenqing was stunned for a moment. After a while, he reacted. No, it's not him. It's the Bamboo Warrior. It's his uncle's Bamboo Warrior that came to save him. Gu Mang is only trapped on the Bamboo Warrior and can't move. Before he could think further, the Bamboo Warrior raised his hand. A black iron saber suddenly appeared from his weapon compartment. Then, as fast as lightning, it charged towards the female corpse who was grimacing in pain.
The two sides were like dragons and tigers fighting fiercely.
Yue Chenqing finally felt less afraid and could move. He hurriedly shouted, "Fourth Uncle, you can do it!"
He thought about it and felt that something was wrong. He shouted again, "Bamboo Warrior, you can do it!"
But after a while, he saw the female corpse's dirty blood spurting onto Gu Mang's face. Gu Mang's face was full of murderous intent. It seemed that even if he wasn't tied up, he would still fight to the death with the female corpse. He shouted again, "Gu … uh … Gu Mang, you can do it!"
The Bamboo Warrior was unusually brave. After a fierce confrontation with the female corpse, it suddenly leaped back. Then, it held its saber horizontally and leaped into the air. With a whoosh, a gust of wind flashed past. It had already rushed towards the female corpse. Dirty blood spurted out several feet!
The female corpse stiffened. Then, with a plop, it broke into two and fell to the ground.
Yue Chenqing, "… Wow, that's disgusting …"
After the Bamboo Warrior finished cutting the female corpse, it seemed that it wasn't satisfied. It held the long saber dripping with blood and walked towards Yue Chenqing. With a whoosh, it pointed at the tip of Yue Chenqing's throat.
Yue Chenqing, "… Big brother … Oh, that's not right. Fourth uncle … uh, or Gu Mang?" After changing a few names, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he decided not to call him that. He carefully waved his hand, "This saber is pointing at the wrong person. I'm not a female ghost. Don't hit me …"
Gu Mang's pair of blue eyes looked down at him.
After a while, the saber turned. The body of the saber, which was still dripping with the corpse's blood, patted Yue Chenqing's face as if he was teaching a junior a lesson.
At this moment, a strong wind suddenly swept down from above. The red clothes flashed in front of Yue Chenqing's eyes. He was shocked. Before he could say anything, he was pushed away by the Bamboo Warrior!
With a "pu" sound, Yue Chenqing dodged. However, Gu Mang, who was tied to the Bamboo Warrior, had his face scratched by the female ghost.
"…" Gu Mang couldn't move or speak. But from his eyes, it was obvious that he was angry. The Snow Wolf's eyes flashed with a fierce light. Scarlet blood flowed down the side of his face.
As for the female corpse, who had succeeded in her sneak attack, she was still grinning in her original position. She seemed to be very happy that she had succeeded. But not long after she was happy, she seemed to feel something. Suddenly, she looked down at her right hand that was stained with blood and was stunned.
Not long after, her features began to contort into extreme fear and panic. Then she began to scream, holding her hands as she let out muffled "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh at Gu Mang.
It seemed that she was begging Gu Mang for something!?
Yue Chenqing didn't have time to be surprised by this scene. What happened next was even more shocking. When the female corpse saw that Gu Mang didn't respond, she suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop. She stretched out the sharp claws on her other hand and actually broke her right hand!
"… My … God …" Yue Chenqing didn't know if he should be disgusted or shocked. The strong smell of the corpse and the smell of blood almost made him vomit.
But the female corpse was even more ruthless. She actually used her trembling hand to grab the broken arm on the ground and handed it to Gu Mang. She looked like she was punishing herself and asking for mercy. "Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah," he kept whimpering.
Gu Mang's blue eyes turned and stared at the bloody broken arm for a while. Yue Chenqing didn't know if it was an illusion, but the color of his eyes suddenly became lighter.
"Eh? Why is there wind … "Yue Chenqing was stunned for a moment." The wind is blowing? "
The wind rose from the bottom of the bamboo warrior's feet, which was Gu Mang's feet, and spread out like ripples. Although Gu Mang's eyes were fierce, his murderous aura wasn't very strong. The wind wasn't strong either, but wherever it passed, the female corpses were all stunned. When they finally reacted, they screamed and trembled. They swayed and gradually knelt on the ground, bowing their heads and motionless.
In the blink of an eye, the corpses were all kneeling down in front of Gu Mang.
Yue Chenqing didn't react to such a turn of events, and the Murong Lian was even more shocked. Mo Xi's expression was also not good, but he wasn't looking at the female corpses. Instead, he was looking at Gu Mang's face.
Things like corpses were very hierarchical. The only things that could make them afraid were usually corpses, malicious spirits, or resentful spirits that were of a higher level than them. But now, these women who had died tragically were all kneeling down in front of Gu Mang. They were even screaming and begging him for mercy … Why was that?
Was it simply because Gu Mang had a large amount of evil energy in his body?
Gu Mang seemed to be very irritated. His blue eyes were moving around. Although he didn't say anything, the direction of the wind changed. The female corpses were screaming unsteadily. Black gas rushed out of their bodies and gathered towards Gu Mang's heart.
He was actually absorbing their demonic energy!?
As more and more evil energy was plundered by Gu Mang, the female corpses twitched like fish on the verge of death. Then, they collapsed one after another, the evil energy leaving their bodies and turning them into ordinary corpses. Among them, some had been dead for a long time. After the evil energy left their bodies, they quickly rotted and withered, turning into black and stinking rotting corpses. Some of them were just killed not long ago. One could still see the remnants of their beauty when they were alive.
Yue Chenqing held back her disgust and looked at the corpse closest to her. It seemed to be Yu Niang who had gone missing in the brothel …
Seeing this, the Murong Lian suddenly strode forward and grabbed Gu Mang's neck. He gritted his teeth and said, "I knew it … You are a liar! You are in cahoots with that Burning Country man who escaped! What are you doing?! "
But Gu Mang had absorbed the evil energy of so many female corpses. At this moment, he was like a satisfied beast. His head tilted to one side and he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the bamboo warrior. He didn't realize what he was angry about.
"You —!" The Murong Lian was even angrier. He wanted to increase the strength of his hand but was stopped.
He suddenly turned his head and saw Mo Xi's face in the dark cave.
Mo Xi held the Murong Lian's hand and didn't say anything. He slowly put down the Murong Lian's hand.
He looked very polite and didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, but only Murong Lian knew how much strength he used. It was almost as if he was going to crush her bones through her flesh.
The Murong Lian said maliciously, "What are you doing?"
"Let him go."
The Murong Lian wrinkled his nose and said in a low voice, "He is an accomplice!"
Mo Xi said, "He is not."
"He is not?! How is he not? Didn't you see that he could make the female corpses break their own arms with just a drop of blood? Didn't you see that he could make them all kneel down with just one look?! Didn't you see that he could take all their corpse energy for himself by just moving his muscles?! "
Mo Xi said angrily, "If he really knew how to control them, he would be in cahoots with Burning Country. And you're in cahoots with that Scorching Man. How can you still be standing here in one piece?! "
"…" Murong Lian was stumped by his words and couldn't say anything for a moment. But he wanted to say something, so he held back until his pale and bewitching face slowly turned red.
After a while, he said, "Okay … Haha, you are right. You defend him. I think you don't remember what he has done before. You don't remember how cunning he is, how … how … "He spat out the last two words," Liar! "
"What kind of person he is." Mo Xi said, "I don't need you to remind me."
"You don't need me to remind you?" Murong Lian laughed out loud. In the end, the expression on her face could be said to be twisted, "Even if I remind you, you won't be able to hear it! You still dare to say that you have no selfish motives. What a good Lord Xi He. You are just protecting him … I think you have forgotten how your father died! "
Mo Xi's beautiful white face instantly lost all color. He glared fiercely at the Murong Lian.
The Murong Lian felt very happy. No one dared to touch Mo Xi's sore spot. No one dared to mention the specific cause of his father's death to Mo Xi.
But he dared to mention it. He knew that although Mo Xi was usually hot-tempered, he was more clear-headed than anyone else when it came to important matters.
So he laughed and glanced at Gu Mang with his snowy fox-like eyes, then back to Mo Xi's handsome face. He raised his chin and said softly, "Lord Xi He is righteous and affectionate. I hope you will follow in your father's footsteps soon. "
Mo Xi's anger seemed to have reached its peak in an instant. But as the Murong Lian expected, he was not the kind of person who would lose his mind easily.
He stared at the Murong Lian's eyes for a while, then raised his hand and pushed him away. He walked into the depths of the cave without looking back.
"… Murong Brother, you … you … sigh." Yue Chenqing was speechless when he saw this scene. He did not want to talk to the Murong Lian anymore. He led the Bamboo Warriors and chased after Mo Xi. "Lord Xi He, wait for me. It's dangerous for you to be alone …"
The sound of footsteps echoed in the cave.
The Murong Lian stood in the same place. He raised his head and looked at the endless darkness in the cave. He closed his eyes and a cruel and mocking smile appeared on his lips. Then, he slowly followed behind.
They came to the place where the green light appeared and stopped there.
This was the last big cave in the cave, hidden behind a stone forest. The green light flickered. It turned out to be a protective enchantment in front of the cave entrance.
Mo Xi took a glance and said, "God-repelling Array."
The countries in the Jiuzhou continent all cultivated the right path of immortality. Their names were usually "Repelling Demons", "Repelling Ghosts", and "Repelling Evil". Needless to say, the country that called the defensive enchantment "Repelling Gods" was most likely Liao Country.
"Is it difficult to break?"
"Not difficult." Mo Xi said, "But it needs time."
The method to break the God-repelling Array was indeed very long and complicated. Mo Xi raised his left hand, which was bound with a wrist guard, and closed his eyes. He silently chanted in his heart. It took a long time for the green light to weaken bit by bit under his palm. The light array was slowly fading away …
As the remaining light disappeared, a soft laugh came from the cave. The voice of the ghost came from the deepest part of the cave. "Since the last barrier has been broken …"
After a pause, he said coldly, "Then the three Immortals, please come in."
