Chapter 29

"You are now truly unable to escape even with wings."

"Oh." Jiang Wan replied coldly. As if realizing her tone was too calm, she coughed weakly a few times before slowly looking at the woman. "Her name is Gong Mei, but that's definitely not her real name. What about you? Could it be that you are Gong Mei? Why did you work with her to turn Yongshu Township into this? Is it because you turned love into hate and wanted to take revenge on the world for randomly harming people?"

As he spoke, Jiang Wan's eyes couldn't help but show disdain again.

"You're still in the mood to talk like this at a time like this?" The woman raised an eyebrow. "If you're just trying to stall for time, then forget it."

Jiang Wan ignored the woman's words and continued to reason regardless of her attitude, "It's very likely that you are Gong Mei. You were dumped. No, it's probably because the person you like doesn't like you and they already like someone else, so you made up this story and tried to blame the reason for their rejection on that girl."

"Oh~" Jiang Wan stretched out her tone as if she suddenly understood something, "That makes sense. The 'rules' clearly say that we should make up a convincing love story. Logically, most cultivators would choose to be in pairs, but I don't see a single happy couple.

So that’s how it is~”

It seems that not only those who discovered the difference in the 'rules' were targeted, but also those young couples who were truly in love with each other were the first to be targeted.

Jiang Wan spoke smoothly, completely ignoring the woman whose face turned pale because of her words.

"No wonder you chose Yongshu Township." Jiang Wan carefully observed the woman's expression at the moment.

The look in his eyes when he looked at her seemed to make him want to tear her into pieces. Hmm... it seemed his reasoning was pretty close to the truth. She could clearly feel the fuzz on her body getting stronger.

The roots that were entangled in Jiang Wan's body suddenly tightened, cutting deeply into the flesh, so that one could even vaguely see the bones underneath. In an instant, spots of bright red stained the moon-white clothes into large patches of blood.

"That's it... and you still say you're not a psychopath." Jiang Wan seemed to feel no pain and raised an eyebrow at the woman, "Gong Mei?"

To be honest, Jiang Wan really couldn't understand someone who was so crazy about love that he dragged everyone into it, especially since the other person didn't look like a lunatic...

Jiang Wan's intuition told her that it was very strange.

Jiang Wan looked at the woman calmly, "You even didn't spare the demon sects from the Tianyu Palace. This shows that you are neither from these demon sects nor afraid of the forces behind them."

"Who is the person who tricked me into coming here?

It's strange that you chose her..."

The woman's face was very gloomy: "Has anyone ever told you that you are really noisy?"

The velvet grass of the dry bones immediately pierced Jiang Wan's collarbone, then wrapped around her neck and tightened. Jiang Wan was forced to raise her head, her face showing a miserable look as if she was lacking oxygen.

Even though she was made miserable by the woman, she still looked at the woman with an indifferent look.

"Really? I don't think so."

Seeing Jiang Wan lingering on but still refusing to bow his head, the woman laughed instead of getting angry. "I have to say, you are indeed the most resilient among all these people. Even in this state, you can still be so articulate."

How come he's not dead yet? He's really alive.

She really couldn't understand how such a person could survive until now without being beaten to death by others.

She still believed that Jiang Wan was stalling for time and had unrealistic fantasies, and did not listen to her "sincere advice".

"However, your spiritual source has been shattered, your spiritual roots have been quickly devoured, and there is not much blood left in your body. Where does your confidence come from that you can leave alive?"

The woman who confirmed Jiang Wan's physical condition again couldn't help but wonder in her heart, why hasn't he died yet?

Life is really hard...

"Depending on your little lover?" The woman mentioned Lin Xubai again, trying to make Jiang Wan's face show fear and regret, but there was no emotion. However, the woman did not care. "You are really infatuated. For your lover, you clearly knew it was a trap, but you still jumped into it one by one."

They don't know that the dreamy pink sea of flowers is actually a bonfire of death.

All hope is nothing more than the prey's dying struggle.

"Your luck ends here."

Pink stamens bloomed behind the woman, just as Jiang Wan saw that night.

"Don't dream of anyone being able to find you. I know the methods you cultivators use. Tracking talismans, positioning spiritual tools, none of these are effective in my sea of flowers! Don't hold out hope either. No one will discover your existence and come to your rescue."

"Stop struggling."

"This is my own territory, independent of the world."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but laugh, "Really? I don't believe it."

Her tone was excited, as if she had received an unexpected surprise.

The woman thought Jiang Wan was too scared and was trying to hide it with calmness, so she taunted him, "Why, are you scared? Weren't you so arrogant just now, mocking me for my sarcasm?"

"Don't worry, let alone a semi-immortal in the Mahayana stage, even the renowned Xingxuan Immortal Venerable wouldn't be able to find my domain space, let alone enter it. It's impossible for them to know what's happening inside. Forget about escaping. It's impossible for the outside world to detect anything happening in this space!"

"What? Is that so?" Jiang Wan was excited, but she didn't forget to confirm again, "Are you absolutely sure?"

"ha?"

woman:?

This reaction is not right...

She heard that there was no way she could ask for help from the outside world, and no one would even know that she was being tortured. Shouldn't she be extremely terrified and desperate now?

Unlike what the woman imagined, Jiang Wan was certainly not afraid nor desperate.

From the moment Jiang Wan chose to break the situation violently, she had only one goal, which was to force out the person behind the scenes.

When the woman showed up out of anger, Jiang Wan's dark eyes, which were hidden by her head, flashed with joy.

The prey took the bait.

"certainly."

"Then I feel relieved."

The woman was a little annoyed. She had wasted too much unnecessary time this time. She thought there was no need to waste so much time talking to Jiang Wan. She simply waved her hand, and the space rippled. The entire environment turned into a sea of flowers and flames at night.

Countless roots growing out of the bones stretched out towards Jiang Wan from all directions like human hands, trying to tear her to pieces.

Just like last night, the black mass of heads headed towards Jiang Wan in the center.

The woman raised her chin proudly, ready to admire Jiang Wan's fear before his death. Now, you should be scared.

Unexpectedly, facing such a horrifying scene, Jiang Wan's expression remained calm, and his eyes seemed to brighten several degrees.

She slowly twisted her wrist, making a very slight, dust-flicking motion.

In an instant, the roots entangled with Jiang Wan were torn into pieces, and a large amount of blood mist burst out.

At the same time, a huge and complicated magic circle suddenly appeared out of thin air, holding her steady in mid-air. The huge magic circle glowed with a dark blue-purple light, which was strange and gorgeous.

The entire sea of flowers was covered in flames, and beneath the sea of flowers, white bones squirmed and made buzzing sounds, as if suddenly, this "world" opened its arms to her and surrendered to her.

!!!

The woman looked stunned, and she was horrified to find that she could not connect to the entire space.

Jiang Wan so easily snatched away her control over her territory from her hands.

"puff--"

A ghostly hand from the underworld emerged from the pitch-black night and pierced through the woman's back.

"How, how is this possible?" The woman lowered her head in a daze, her eyes filled with disbelief at what she saw.

Jiang Wan rubbed his wrist and snapped his fingers politely - "Snap!"

"Now, it's my turn."

As soon as the words fell, the whole space fell silent.

The boundless darkness instantly occupied the entire space like an abyss. When the last trace of white was swallowed by the darkness, a huge full moon appeared in the center.

Jiang Wan stepped on the magic circle with black ripples, standing under the full moon, with a pair of dark eyes showing a cold light.

Under his feet, the wide magic circle seemed to be boiling like the surface of water, and there seemed to be countless roars inside.

"O the dead, deeper than the eternal night, O eternal existence, quieter than death!

O Eternal One of the Abyss of Decay, Throne of Bones, hear my voice!

"I command in the name of the Pluto Throne—

Guided by the breath of the deceased and witnessed by the covenant of the dark moon!

I command you to break free from your eternal slumber and make the silent souls roar again!

Come back!

Submit to my command!

In an instant, the entire space seemed to be torn apart, and tens of thousands of white bone creatures crawled out from the darkness.

This must be a lie... The woman was so shocked she tried to speak, but her lips trembled uncontrollably and her voice was stuck in her throat. Everything before her was too far-fetched and unbelievable for her, a nightmare that couldn't possibly happen in reality.

The woman stared at the scene in a daze. The horror in her eyes was not only fear, but also disbelief that her vision had been shattered for many years.

In a trance, she heard a cold voice coming from the throne under the moon, saying to her:

"Welcome to the world of the dead."
