Chapter 42 Killing You Is like Squishing an Ant
The burning fingertips burned the ropes. Wuyou dragged Chiyou into the house. On a stone pillar far away, hung a woman. The face of the woman was covered by her long hair. When Wuyou went up to get a clear look, a black figure suddenly leaped at her. Wuyou felt a sudden piercing pain. Viscous venom flowed down her face. The venom was smoking. Han Chiyou screamed. Sister’s face was suddenly ruined by the venom, there was a spot where he could see the white bone. Her little hand reached out, wanting to touch it, but she was so scared, she pulled her hand back.
“Sister.”
Han Chiyou sobbed almost soundlessly.
“Don’t be afraid. Sister will be fine.”
“The relationship between you sisters is indeed deep. How touching.”
The woman on the stone pillar flew down. When the night wind blew at her long hair. Wuyou felt extremely regretful. It was the naga Ming Zhu. The woman’s heart was venomous. She was indebted to Wuyou, but had still plotted against her.
“How have you been, Jiang. Wu. You? You didn’t expect it to be me, Ming Zhu, right! However, it is really useful to turn into your mother. You’re such a softie. It is a pity that your devastatingly beautiful appearance is gone. After tonight, the world will no longer have foxes of Teal Hill. Xu Linghe will belong to Ming Zhu alone. I will replace you...”
The poison mixed with her blood and spread. Her skin was burning hot, and blood flowed from her face to her shirt.
Under the weak candlelight, Han Chiyou saw the face disfigured by poison. Her heart ached. Her sister did not even look human. How much must the demoness hate her sister to do such an evil thing. The little girl used her entire strength to fight against Ming Zhu, wanting to protect her sister.
The pain made Wuyou more awake. She warned herself not to fall and to protect her little sister. Chiyou was so wonderful, she was a comfort to her soul. How could she let Xiaoyou see the bloodshed and filth of the word? Her spiritual finger flicked past the little girl.
“Sister.”
Han Chiyou stared at her elder sister with wide eyes until she closed them.
“Sleep well. You’ll see your mother when you wake up.”
Blood rushed into her mouth when Wuyou wanted to pick up the little girl. Her spiritual finger made a gesture and she made a spiritual web for the little girl. She hoped that time would pass more slowly so that she could see Xu Linghe while she was alive. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m
“There is no one in the three realms that can neutralize the poison of Zhuoguang Mountain. Jiang Wuyou, I’ll see how long you can last.”
Ming Zhu turned into her naga form. Her large fish tail swept at Wuyou. Wuyou could not see anything. Her eyes had been swallowed by the poison and all were black.
She used her hearing and faced Ming Zhu’s attack. She made a gesture of Spirit Power with her hands. She had to get rid of Ming Zhu immediately. Wuyou’s divine consciousness searched for Ming Zhu’s spirit. Just as Ming Zhu’s Spirit Power was nearing, Wuyou hit out with her palms. Where her Spirit Power went, explosions sounded. The stone house collapsed and fell down the cliff. Wuyou carried her little sister and flew away.
“Where can you run to?”
Ming Zhu chased after them. Wuyou flew with the wind towards the Xu Manor. She did not think of anything. She only wanted to see her man. The poison was eating at her and her internal organs felt as if they were being tugged on by someone.
The naga Ming Zhu had a dragon sleeve. She made a gesture with her finger and the dragon sleeve wound around Wuyou like a moving dragon. The sharp spiritual sound pierced through the night, shaking up the earth and moving mountains. Wuyou dodged the naga’s attack.
When Wuyou’s dragon sleeves flung toward Wuyou again, a strong Spirit Power caused the sleeve to fly back. Wuyou was dragged up by someone. The naga looked at the man on the cloud and spat naga oil from her mouth. The naga oil was like magma in the night wind as it blew out. The man was furious when he looked at the woman in his arms.
“You are quite brave demoness, you actually dare to hurt her.”
The man on the cloud made a gesture and chanted an incantation. The Talisman incantation glowed with spirit light and went through the naga’s skin. The Talisman incantation turned into a blade that cut the naga’s face, and bone could be seen from each stroke. Xiao Qi laughed bloodthirstily.
Xiao Qi had ten and thousands of methods to kill the naga right now. But they would not be able to diminish the hatred he felt. Those who hurt Xiaoyao had to die.
Xiao Qi understood Xiaoyao the most in this world. From the beginning where she stayed in Qin Yueleng’s body as a lonely spirit, Xiaoyao had experienced countless difficulties. He had accompanied Xiaoyao as she grew. This evil woman had dared to use such a cruel method to destroy Xiaoyao’s appearance. Xiaoyao, who was in his embrace looked so weak she was almost transparent. The hardheaded woman wanted to be released from his embrace but had lost all senses in her limbs. The toxin had eroded Xiaoyao’s muscles and veins.
“Xiao Qi, am I very ugly? I’m afraid Linghe would not be able to recognize this face.”
“Cousin would definitely be able to recognize it. Xiaoyao is still the Xiaoyao of the three realms.”
“Xiao Qi, take me away, I can’t let Linghe be sad.”
Wuyou only wanted to leave this place right now. The further away from Xu Linghe the better. She felt bad about herself because she loved him. She wanted to leave the best version of herself in Xu Linghe’s heart.
Xiao Qi caressed Xiaoyao’s face. He wanted to use his Spirit Power to smooth out the scars on her face but did not know that the Nanyi naga’s poison was so potent.
“The poison of our Zhuoguang Mountain is something no one can neutralize. Even the Black Emperor can do nothing... ha.”
“If she dies, the naga clan will die with her.”
“Killing you is like squishing an ant.”
“Is it? I am afraid of dying. I will bring Jiang Wuyou with me.”
Xiao Qi shoved his palm at her. The Spirit Power that shot out hit the naga.
Ming Zhu who had been hit by the Spirit Power climbed up unsteadily. Her hatred was sky-high. Was it wrong for her to love Xu Linghe?
But the naga would never understand that love was not snatching forcefully or killing one’s conscience. A demon would always be a demon and would not understand the truth of love.
Jealousy raged. Jiang Wuyou was so lucky that Xu Linghe loved her. Even when she was ugly there was someone who loved her so.
Ming Zhu rushed up crazily. Ming Zhu, who had turned into a dragon sleeve threw herself at Wuyou with all her strength. The naga oil lit the dragon sleeve ablaze. It was an ever-burning spiritual fire. Living creatures in the three realms who have been lit by it would definitely turn into ashes. Ming Zhu only wanted Jiang Wuyou to disappear from this world, even if it meant destroying herself.
The dragon sleeve burned, lighting up the sky. The Wolf King who was watching the battle from afar was shocked by the woman’s viciousness. He had never thought that a woman would be so heartless for a man. Her evilness made the hairs on his arms rise. However, a woman like this is easier for him to control. He only had to get his hands on her Achilles heel. Keeping this woman would be useful in the future. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
Xiao Qi, who was on the cloud dismissed Ming Zhu’s attack. He solidified a layer of spiritual web to protect Xiaoyao and turned to leave the spiritual barrier.
“What a coincidence, Wolf King. I am afraid I have to work hard today.”
“Isn’t the Emperor also poking his nose in this?”
It was the Wolf King. Her enemy was here. Wuyou was already an invalid. She had lost the strength to stand.
“Demon Wolf. I’m going to kill you.”
Wuyou waved her spiritual finger, wanting to break through the spiritual barrier. However, her Spirit Power had dried up and her internal organs hurt. She felt hopeless and this made Wuyou feel worse than death. Her enemy was right in front of her and yet she could not do anything. Only Wuyou understood this sort of feeling.
How would Xiao Qi let the Wolf King and the naga go? Those who hurt Xiaoyao all had to die.
The Wolf King transformed into his true body and jumped onto the clouds. He had seen this demon in the Wind City. Back then, it had been hurt by Meiji and escaped to the human realm. It was now working under Chidi. It seemed that they were plotting.
Ming Zhu’s dragon sleeves kept transforming. She had to get through Xiao Qi to use it to cross the spiritual barrier. Ming Zhu tried her best to cross the clouds like a meteor to get to Jiang Wuyou.
Xiao Qi’s clothes fluttered and the spirit beast in his beast flew out. The little flying serpent spread out its wings and guarded the spiritual barrier well. Wolf King followed Ming Zhu closely and leaped at Xiao Qi.
The little flying serpent was concerned with protecting its master. It sprayed out bullets which spread out and headed at Wolf King and Ming Zhu. Wolf King saw the flaming bullets behind him and he flipped and jumped to dodge them.
Ming Zhu had evidently underestimated the little flying serpent. Her dragon sleeves were exploded into several sections by the bullets and her body was tossed into the air. She had not expected that she would die by the bullets shot by the little beast. The little flying serpent saw that there was food and drooled. It curled up its little tails and wrapped up Ming Zhu and sent her into its mouth.
Ming Zhu yelled. When she wanted to struggle, she was wrapped up by the liquid the little flying serpent shot out. Her body was dragged up by the icy cold tongue. Ming Zhu was so afraid she fainted. Xiao Qi watched all that was happening coldly. It was Ming Zhu’s Fate to become food for the little flying serpent.
The little flying serpent caught Ming Zhu in its mouth and flew toward the spiritual barrier. It could not be too slow to protect Jiang Wuyou.
The Wolf King saw Ming Zhu being eaten by the little flying serpent. He made a gesture to call the wolf pack. He could only use the ancient skills of the wolf pack if he wanted to live.
Xiao Qi made a little circulation. The Spirit Power gathered on his four limbs. The hot airflow surged from the spirit and the Spirit Power that was spat out gathered in his hands.
The Wolf King recited an incantation. A ray of light shot from his finger to the night sky. Dark clouds blocked the moon. A blood fog was wrapped up by the incantation. The Wolf King extended his arms and let the wandering Spirit Power enter the blood fog. A rip appeared in the fog immediately. A pack of wolves that were shining with green light jumped out of the blood fog. Following that, was tens and thousands of wolves.
The Wolf King called out an order and the wolf pack that came from the clouds leaped at Xiao Qi. Their growls filled the night sky.
Xiao Qi was skilled at controlling the wind. He pushed his palm out and the corpses of the demonic wolves littered the land. The Wolf King saw that the tide was changing and he jumped into the pack of wolves. He did not dare to underestimate his enemy after they had crossed paths several times.
The Wolf King made a gesture and recited an incantation while he looked at Xiao Qi who was on the cloud. The demonic wolves were immediately tied up tightly by the spirit. When the incantation entered the demonic wolves’ bodies, they were dragged up and the Spirit Power that had been swirling spread.
Xiao Qi saw the odd happenings on the ground. Those demons were tossed into mid-air by the tornado. The wolf pack transformed in the Spirit Power. When the Wolf King jumped out of the tornado, Xiao Qi saw an enormous object jumping into the clouds. The wolf pack that Wolf King had called had transformed into massive monsters.
Xiao Qi rushed into the clouds at the Wolf King. The little flying serpent looked at the massive monsters and was worried for its master. It had lived for millennia and had never seen such large monsters. It hoped that its master would be able to defeat these monsters.
Xiao Qi transformed into his true body and circled above the Wolf King. The little flying serpent did not know that its owner was a lion. It felt that its owner was really handsome and impressive.
The Wolf King waved its sharp claws. Xiao Qi followed the Wolf King’s palm to find a weak spot. He saw the Wolf King shaking its body and the hair on its back exploded. Spiritual light descended on the hair and went through the clouds. It headed for Xiao Qi like the many stars in the sky. The spiritual power filled the skies and rushed at Xiao Qi swiftly. It looked as if he the Spirit Power spikes were about to catch up with him, but Xiao Qi rushed downward and held a sharp blade, cleaving down on the Wolf King’s back.
Blood splattered. The Wolf King turned around and swiped with its enormous claws. Xiao Qi retreated dozens of feet back. The wolf made several attacks which were all dodged skillfully by Xiao Qi. The Wolf King was enraged and he jumped into the sky. His sharp claws aimed at Xiao Qi’s throat. Then, the sand and stones flew up into the air while the earth was torn up.
Xiao Qi only saw darkness before him. His head hurt. Then, his body was tossed into the air by the Wolf King.
