Chapter 88088 Breakup

Chapter 88

Queen Dowager Xue looked at Ying Ji with a complicated gaze, through the layers of guards protecting her. Watching the guards before her being devoured one by one by the undead demon, a fleeting look of doubt flashed through Queen Dowager Xue's eyes, then vanished, her expression unconcerned. She turned away, her hand covering her lips as she coughed repeatedly. It seemed as if this relentless illness was even more vexing than the life-threatening situation before her.

The black python passed through the numerous guards and rushed to Queen Mother Xue, opening its huge mouth that was like a black abyss and emitting evil energy.

"Eat her." Ying Ji said coldly.

Those who lie and deceive others should pay the price.

The black python's throat made a hissing sound, and its huge mouth wanted to swallow.

Suddenly, a bodhi leaf swirled down, brushing past the black python's head before slowly falling to the ground. It felt light and yet heavy.

There was a raging fire in the black python's empty eyes, but it could not move and was nailed to the spot.

Yingji did not look back. She looked at the falling Bodhi leaf and could already sense the breath of Kongfan behind her.

"Are you going to protect her?" she asked knowingly.

Kong Fan walked forward, approached Ying Ji, and tried to take her hand. Ying Ji immediately flicked her sleeve, and the red sleeve slipped from Kong Fan's grasp bit by bit.

She took a step back, turned sideways, looked directly at Kong Fan, and said coldly: "What if I must take her life today?"

Kong Fan frowned and looked into Yingji's eyes, shaking his head slowly.

Yingji also met his gaze, gazing into his clear eyes. His eyes were like a cloudless sky, a waveless lake, and Yingji felt as if she might fall into the lake if she wasn't careful.

no.

Yingji quickly looked away, withdrawing her attention from the peace and tranquility he offered her.

"Aying." Kong Fan took a step forward and held her hand through her wide red gauze sleeves.

Her hands were so cold.

Ying Ji still didn't look at him, pursed her lips, then sneered and said, "Monk, if you stop me from killing her today, then the relationship between you and me will be just like this!"

The scimitar swung, and with a ripping sound, Yingji's red gauze sleeve was cut open. She stepped back again, and the red gauze sleeve slowly ripped open along the cut. The torn piece of sleeve fell into Kong Fan's palm, hanging between his fingers, fluttering gently, as if still nostalgic for its owner.

Kong Fan looked at the piece of red gauze in his palm, slowly raised his eyes, and looked at Ying Ji with worry and compassion.

He spoke, his tone as gentle as ever - "Aying, let's find a way. I will help you and stay by your side. What is right and wrong in this world..."

"Kong Fan." Ying Ji interrupted him directly.

She raised her eyes again, glaring at Kong Fan with a cold, mocking gaze. Her tone was also cold: "You don't think I treat you with sincerity, do you? Don't be silly. Your mother used the opening of the Samsara Well as a bargaining chip to let me lure you into breaking your vows. Now that you know she lied to me, and the Samsara Well can never be opened again in this world, there's no need for me to flatter you or coax you into doing what you want."

She even pulled up the corners of her mouth and chuckled: "It's really painful to get along with a boring person like you."

Kong Fan frowned and looked at him in silence.

Yingji suddenly thought that since when, Kongfan had become more and more accustomed to frowning when facing her.

She was indeed a problem for him.

Ying Ji didn't want to stay with Kong Fan any longer, so she snapped her fingers, and the black python that was fixed by Kong Fan was able to move freely instantly. It rolled its huge body in the air, and its tail slapped and rammed the magnificent hall at will, smashing the ground into a mess.

Amid the screams and dodging sounds of the concubines in the harem, the black python approached Yingji, its massive body crouching before her, obediently allowing her to ride on it before rushing out of the palace with her. Its massive, powerful body smashed the palace door to pieces, and it soared into the sky, carrying Yingji, away from the Chaoxi Palace.

The palace guards didn't know whether to give chase or not, so they looked at their emperor inquiringly.

Kong Fan followed her out of the dilapidated palace gate, looking up at Ying Ji's departing figure. The black python was enormous, and Ying Ji, sitting atop it, was so tiny, a mere floating red dot.

The cool breeze blew, blowing his snow-white monk's robes backward. The red gauze in his hand also fluttered gently backward, brushing against his monk's robes again and again.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and I didn't know if she was cold sitting up there.

"Kong Fan." Empress Dowager Xue approached slowly from behind, her elaborate palace dress trailing across the messy ground. A woman who had experienced many ups and downs, having served as an emperor, she remained calm and composed.

"Are you still planning to give up being the emperor and just stay with her forever?" Empress Dowager Xue asked with a smile.

Ying Ji, standing on the horizon, was no longer visible. Kong Fan withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes to glance at the piece of red gauze in his hand, then turned back to look at his mother and said seriously, "Lying is wrong. Mother should repent."

Empress Dowager Xue was stunned.

After a pause, she asked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Are you going to punish me by making me copy Buddhist scriptures?"

"It's good that mother has this realization."

Empress Dowager Xue: ...

Yingji sat on the black python, letting the icy wind slap her face like knives. She didn't notice her tears falling into the wind until her vision was blurred. Only then did she realize that her face was already covered in tears.

She didn't have to kill Queen Mother Xue, but she had to break with Kong Fan.

She and he were on different paths.

Whether he is a good person or tends to be kind, it has nothing to do with her. She is destined to go down the evil path.

Rather than suffering from entanglement, it is better to break off completely. From now on, he will be his Buddhist son, the Sage Emperor, and she will be her evil cultivator, the bad woman.

Yingji took a deep breath, and her grief was relieved, but the pain in her body came back again.

It felt like tiny knives were stabbing through her body, cutting her flesh and bones. Even her blood was filled with sharp needles, stabbing her non-stop.

It hurts so much.

Yingji fell on the black python, closed her eyes and hugged herself to resist the pain.

She was good at treating poisons and had taken all the painkillers, but she still couldn't resist the pain brought to her by the alchemy technique.

This mortal body could not withstand the backlash of this alchemy technique, and it suffered pain every moment until it was shattered into pieces.

Is it because the demon refining technique has a very strong backlash, or is it because she lacked the last of the nine demon refining items and refined the demon in advance?

Sweat poured down like rain, soaking Yingji's entire body. She didn't have time to think before fainting from the pain.

As she fell unconscious, the black python lost control and slowly descended from the air, landing on the ground like a statue.

The black mist around the black python surrounded Ying Ji in circles, and the black mist emitted from Ying Ji's body also merged into the black python's body in circles.

When the Nine-Tailed Fox came searching, it ignored the statue-like black python and landed in front of Yingji. She looked down at Yingji with disdain in her eyes.

Yingji has a scar on her face, and Jiuwei dislikes that this beautiful face has been tarnished. But it doesn't matter, it can be repaired.

Kyuubi reached out and touched his face.

She had used up her face enough and wanted a new one. She had wanted Yingji's face for a long time and came to get it today.

She didn't care whether Yingji was awake or unconscious, and attacked directly. A green light flashed from her fingertips, but before she could touch Yingji, she was swallowed by a cloud of black mist.

Ying Ji opened her eyes and stared at her vigilantly. At the same time, she urged the souls of the dead monsters to slowly rise into the air.

Kyuubi was a little surprised.

She smiled charmingly and said, "My dear, after looking at you many times, I still think your face is the most beautiful. I'm here to take it."

She said it so calmly and confidently.

More and more monster spirits floated out from the black fog, but Yingji's body was still unable to move.

Nine-Tailed Fox looked closely at the demonic beasts and said casually, "Without the Ninth Item, not only will you not succeed, you will also die in agony. And you can't possibly obtain the Ninth Item. No one can."

Yingji keenly sensed something and immediately asked, "Do you know the whereabouts of the Bodhi Pill?"

Jiuwei glanced at Yingji in surprise, seeming very surprised that she didn't know where the Bodhi Pill was?

Soon, Kyuubi started giggling again. As she laughed, the skin on her face split open, revealing the horrible white bones inside.

Kyuubi's expression changed immediately and he waved his hand angrily. The girl's delicate skin returned to normal, with no visible bones under the skin. She had a beautiful face again.

But she had used this human skin for a long time and was tired of it, so she came to change it for a better one today.

"Alright, Old Ancestor, I'm not in the mood to waste time on you. I've used this pretty face of yours for so long, it's time to give it to—"

Kyuubi suddenly stopped talking, her brows furrowed. Her brows quickly relaxed, and she adopted a resentful tone, saying to the person who hadn't appeared, "Long time no see, old man."

Yingji looked up in surprise, looking over Jiuwei's shoulder and searching around until she saw Master Daozhen appear.

"Amitabha." Master Daozhen said in a teaching tone, "Are you really unwilling to travel with me?"

The letter was rejected, so Master Daozhen came in person.

The Sky-Splitting Formation required a vast number of formidable individuals. The more cultivators gathered, the more spiritual energy condensed, and the greater the chance of saving Kong Fan's life. Over the years, Grandmaster Daozhen had traveled extensively, convincing many to participate in the Sky-Splitting Plan.

The Nine-Tailed Fox before him was a full thirty thousand years old. Her strength was beyond the reach of even the combined might of the Venerables. If he could gain her support, the Sky-Splitting Formation would undoubtedly see its power greatly increased.

Jiuwei turned her back to Daozhen, as if she didn't hear him. She lowered her head, as if she was still looking at Yingji's face.

But Yingji knew that Jiuwei was not looking at her now.

After a moment of silence, Master Daozhen said again: "Jiuwei, come with me."

Jiuwei smiled slowly, a charming smile spreading across her face that didn't belong to her. She asked slowly, "Where are we going together? To hang out?"

"Amitabha——" Master Daozhen's voice was as steady as a temple bell.

Kyuubi suddenly flew into a rage. With a wave of her hand, she tore off the human skin on her face, revealing her true appearance. With her eerie, bone-white face, she approached Daozhen and said viciously, "Because of you, my face has become like this. Don't you dare open your eyes and take a look?"

Master Daozhen closed his eyes.

Did her face become like this because of him? Daozhen didn't know if this was true. A Kyuubi cultivator couldn't fall in love. She fell in love with him, and so she became possessed, her body festering.

Cause and effect are inextricably intertwined in this world. She said it was because of him, so that was it.

But after thousands of years, why hasn't she let it go?

"Say you love me, say you're willing to abandon your Buddha and stay with me forever. I'll give you everything I have, my life, all my cultivation, so you can do whatever you want. Okay?"

When she first spoke, her tone was joking, but as she spoke later, the humility in her voice could no longer be concealed.

Yingji immediately understood the indestructible feelings that Jiuwei had for Daozhen hidden deep in her heart.

Daozhen is an old monk. He doesn't need to enter a state of meditation, but he is as stubborn as a rock and can hurt a sincere heart.

But Jiuwei has gotten used to it. For thousands of years, her heart has been broken again and again by Daozhen.

Jiuwei looked back at Yingji, and he no longer wanted to offend Yingji today.

because……

She didn't want to kill anything in front of Daozhen, as the old man didn't like it.

"You are lucky today." Kyuubi giggled.

Jiuwei suddenly remembered something. She turned around to look at Kongfan who was coming from a distance, glanced at Daozhen meaningfully, then fixed her eyes on Yingji and said slowly, "I take back what I said just now. Not everyone can't get the Bodhi Pill. Perhaps you can."

Kyuubi's smile grew even brighter and more enchanting, and he added, "If anyone in this world can obtain the Bodhi Pill, I'm afraid it's only you."

Grandmaster Daozhen standing by suddenly frowned.

Jiuwei leaned close to Daozhen's ear and said, "If you don't kill anyone, I will help you kill someone."
