Chapter 185 It’s True
When the demons heard this, the demonic energy around them surged, and their scarlet vertical pupils were filled with anger. Is this person looking for death?
Shadow Phoenix grasped the dragon-scale steel whip with his backhand, a sneer of disdain on his face. "Is your opinion important?"
Song Binbin's face flushed instantly. "You—! What do you mean?"
His heart was blazing with rage. She was just a demonic monster, yet she dared to look down on him, the leader of a sect, in such a disdainful way. If he didn't let her witness the might of the Spirit Sword Sect, wouldn't he become a laughing stock?!
Song Binbin raised his hand and was about to order an attack, but suddenly he caught sight of a familiar face in the crowd opposite him, and his fingers couldn't help but tremble.
Isn’t that person Ge Fuling?
And the people around her were obviously the hostages that the Lingjian Sect had sent to the Demon Realm to seek peace.
They actually abandoned the sect and joined the demon clan? How ungrateful!
Song Binbin felt a surge of betrayal and anger. She pointed her spirit sword at Ge Fuling, "I really misjudged you. You're no different from those heartless, servile women."
"You said you were grateful to the sect, but as soon as you arrived in the Demon Realm, you betrayed the sect without hesitation, even betraying Elder Xujun, right?!"
Ge Fuling never thought that she would meet Song Binbin here, so when she saw him, she lowered her head and hid behind people.
However, she didn't expect that he would see it anyway, and the other sisters would also be spitted on and insulted by him.
She felt humiliated and angry, and blurted out, "What gives you the right to say I'm heartless and ungrateful? I think the most heartless, shameless, and despicable person in the world is you!"
She walked forward excitedly and glared at him angrily.
"You were the one who deceived me, you were the one who drained my cultivation and then abandoned me, you were the one who sent me to the demon clan to fend for myself. What qualifications do you have to blame me?!"
After he finished speaking, the other demons looked at Song Binbin with contempt and disgust, "How shameless."
"No wonder they say the immortals are all rotten, smelly maggots. They're really right."
"He said one thing to your face and another behind your back. He allowed the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps. How can you say such tactics aren't powerful?"
Song Binbin's face turned pale. He had never been insulted so much before and was filled with anger. "This is nonsense! Shut up! It's you traitors who deserve to die!"
Roaring angrily, he swung his sword and stabbed straight at Ge Fuling.
He was already at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul, while Ge Fuling had only just reached the Golden Core stage. How could he possibly withstand such a sword attack? With a clang, Ge Fuling was struck back by the surging sword energy and thrown backwards.
Just as she was about to hit the pillar in front of the square, Yongye's sisters flew over and caught her in mid-air.
Ge Fuling covered her heart with her hands, blood flowed from the corners of her mouth, and tears flowed out.
Song Binbin, you are so cruel!
Seeing that Ge Fuling was not dead, Song Binbin was afraid that she would say something to slander him again and take action again. Suddenly, a sea of fog flew over from the distance, and above the sea of fog were dark figures.
He was slightly startled, but saw a white mist suddenly surge out of the sea of fog and rush towards him.
Song Binbin hurriedly flew backwards, but the fog was faster and turned into four mist ropes in the air, which directly entangled his limbs and pulled him over.
The elders of the Lingjian Sect panicked and started to cast spells. In an instant, dozens of beams of light shot out and attacked the white fog.
But the demons were not pushovers either. Following Shadow Phoenix's command, they immediately released their demonic energy in an orderly manner, which gathered in the air and turned into a huge black shield, blocking all the magical lights.
Immediately afterwards, the black shield exploded in the air and transformed into balls of dark demonic energy, flying towards the cultivators of the Lingjian Sect like a meteor.
The people of the Lingjian Sect were even more frightened. They had to deal with the evil spirit in a panic and had no time to save the captured sect leader.
At the same time, the sea of fog fell on the side of the demons, and the people standing on it were none other than the group of people from Nanzhou rescued by the Lord of the Sea of Fog.
Because the Lord of the Mist Sea wanted to teleport so many people, he arrived slower than the people from the Spirit Sword Sect.
When the people of Nanzhou saw Song Binbin being captured, they immediately rushed forward, punching and kicking him, saying, "It was you who allowed your men to harm the human race? Go to hell now."
"Bah! What a high and mighty immortal clan! Your father is just a hypocritical and disgusting bug. It's simply disgusting."
"You immortals still want to become gods by stepping on the flesh and blood of us humans. Go ahead and dream on! We humans won't tolerate this!"
"I'll beat you to death, you worm that only knows how to exploit the spiritual energy of the human race!"
All kinds of weapons and spells rained down on Song Binbin, causing him to wail in pain and shout "Help!" However, his hands and feet were tied up by fog ropes, and he was unable to resist and could only lie down and take the beating.
The cultivators of the Spirit Sword Sect saw their leader being beaten by the people under their rule in front of the whole world. They wanted to save him but couldn't. They felt completely humiliated and ashamed, and they wanted to turn around and run away.
Before long, Song Binbin was tortured to the point of being on the verge of death, and her wails became weaker.
He felt as if all the bones in his body were crushed, he couldn't even lift a finger, his head was buzzing, and his eyes were covered with blood and he couldn't open them.
Is he going to die like this? This is too ridiculous, isn't it?
Also, are those people from the Spirit Sword Sect all useless? Why haven't they come to rescue him yet?
And Senior Gongsun, isn't he watching from the sky? The immortals have been forced to this point by the demons, why hasn't he taken action yet?!
Song Binbin wailed in his heart in despair and pain, and suddenly he felt everyone retreat and stop beating him, and his whole body felt lighter.
He felt hope again. Was there anyone who came to save him?
He tried hard to open his eyes, but saw Ge Fuling standing in front of him, looking down at him expressionlessly.
His heart skipped a beat, and he gasped for breath, "Fuling, actually, I... I didn't mean to hurt you... It's just that I'm the leader of a sect now..."
Before he could finish, Ge Fuling raised her hands and slapped him in the face left and right, making him see stars and bleed.
"Go to hell, you bastard sect leader! You're a bitch! A beast! A scum! You deserve to be childless for the rest of your life!"
Song Binbin is very concerned about his reputation. He held a grudge against his father just because he was criticized by his father for a few words.
Now, he was beaten by the woman he had abandoned. Every word he said pierced his heart and lungs. His blood surged and his sea of consciousness was in turmoil. With a "wow", he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a ball of broken flesh and blood.
Immediately afterwards, with a loud bang, his entire body exploded in front of Ge Fuling, with blood and flesh splattering everywhere.
Ge Fuling was knocked to the ground by the air wave. Looking at the bloody scene in front of her, her pupils trembled violently and her hands supporting the ground became weak. She didn't do anything just now?
It turned out that Song Binbin could not bear the humiliation, and her qi and blood flowed backwards. The golden elixir she had cultivated for many years exploded in her body, and she died.
Seeing this, the demons were all stunned.
After a while, those monks who had been abandoned by the immortals and sent to the devil's realm began to cheer happily.
The human race, who had suffered humiliation from the Spirit Sword Sect, also applauded.
“Death is not a pity!”
"This is karma!"
Everyone was overjoyed, except for the people from the Jinmen Immortal Mansion and the Lingjian Sect, who all had gloomy expressions.
————
At this time, only two quarters of an hour had passed since Qiu Qianling entered the illusion.
But half a month had passed in the illusion.
For the past half month, Qiu Qianling has been staying in the dungeon. She tried various methods but failed to escape.
Until, in the cell next door, a monk whose spiritual roots had been dug out was locked up. The continuous groans of pain he could faintly hear made her scalp tingle.
The dungeon was guarded by two gray-robed male monks. She learned from their casual conversation that the monk was the daughter of the mortal woman.
She killed that mortal, dug out her daughter's spiritual roots, and even imprisoned her... Qiu Qianling simply couldn't believe that such a cruel thing would be done by her master's wife.
No, that person is not her master's wife!
She was certain that something must have happened in the room that night that she didn't know about, which caused her master's wife to become the evil she was now.
Qiu Qianling thought that she had to go out to find the truth.
Fortunately, she finally found an opportunity and stole the cell key from the male cultivator who was guarding her.
Qiu Qianling opened the cell door and slipped out, looking back at the male cultivator. He was leaning against the cell door and dozing off, unaware of anything.
When she passed the next cell, she took a look inside and found that the monk was hiding in the shadows in the corner and her face could not be seen clearly.
However, there was no time for her to take a closer look. She would come to save her after she had resolved the matter of her master's wife.
Qiu Qianling quickly crossed the passage and walked up the stairs. He carefully released his spiritual sense to investigate, and after confirming that there was no one outside, he pushed open the door and slipped out.
There was actually a study outside.
It turns out that this dungeon is right under Xie Yuqing's cave.
Qiu Qianling was feeling emotional and didn't dare to waste any time. He immediately began to search carefully in the study, trying to find clues that could help him figure out what had happened in the room that night.
However, after searching for a long time, she didn't find anything useful.
Finally, she came to the picture of purgatory again.
This time, the woman in white in the painting actually raised her head slowly, her long black hair sliding down from both sides of her cheeks, revealing a face as pale as paper, and her dark pupils staring straight at her outside the painting.
Qiu Qiannian gasped in shock. The woman's face in the painting was exactly the same as his master's wife's.
She couldn't help but scream, "Master's Wife!"
After she finished speaking, the person in the painting actually opened his mouth and responded to her, "Qian Ling."
Her voice was warm and soft, exactly the same as the voice of her master's wife in Qiu Qianling's memory.
"What on earth happened? Master's wife, why are you trapped in the painting?!" Qiu Qianling was completely confused.
The person in the painting looks melancholy, with a struggle in his eyes, as if he is struggling over whether to tell her the truth.
Qiu Qianling was extremely anxious and had to tell her all the bad things that the other master's wife had done during this period.
"She actually... didn't even let that child go?" The person in the painting was incredulous. After a long silence, he sighed softly, "Well, it seems I have to do something."
Only then did Qiu Qianling learn everything from his master's wife.
It turns out that the master's wife has had two souls in one body since childhood. To make it easier to distinguish them, the other one is called the evil soul, and the person in the painting is naturally the good soul.
Good souls are gifted, hardworking, and dedicated to cultivation; evil souls are mediocre in talent, lazy, and dedicated to fun.
However, the good soul has always been considerate of the evil soul and has let her control his body most of the time. Since the evil soul and Shi Zhenlin became Taoist partners, the good soul has rarely appeared.
But she is a kind soul after all. Sometimes when she sees Qiu Qianling being bullied, she can't help but come forward to help her, and she has had many disputes with the evil spirit for this.
That night, the good soul originally wanted to teach Qiu Qianling how to practice, but the evil soul accidentally learned that Shi Zhenlin had betrayed her, so he wanted to go to the human world to kill that mortal woman.
Of course the good soul tried his best to dissuade him, but he didn't expect that the evil soul was well prepared and took out the map of purgatory and locked the good soul in.
And he said: "I have had enough of your meddling. From now on, you will stay in this sea of fire and suffer!"
When Qiu Qianling heard this, she felt very distressed. She knew that her master's wife was not that kind of person and it was impossible for her to forget the agreement with her.
It was her fault. She should have discovered it earlier. Then, the master's wife wouldn't have suffered for so long.
Qiu Qianling said hatefully, "I'm going to kill the evil spirit right now and avenge you!"
The person in the painting stopped her, "No, Qian Ling, you can't kill her, that's my body too."
"Then what should I do? What should I do to rescue you, Master's Wife?" Qiu Qianling reached out and grabbed the picture frame, saying with red eyes.
The figure in the painting was silent for a moment before speaking slowly, "Use your blood blade to slay the evil spirit without harming that body. Only in this way can I leave the painting and return to my body."
Blood Blade?
Qiu Qianling frowned in confusion, then stretched out her hand in front of her eyes, only to see a red light flashing in the palm of her hand. Then, as if sensing something, a blood-red sharp blade appeared out of thin air. She was so panicked that she immediately grabbed the hilt.
Her eyes fixed on the bloody blade, a terrifying aura came over her, giving her a feeling of a sea of blood and corpses.
This seems to be a magic weapon.
Qiu Qianling frowned even deeper. It was really strange. If she had such a powerful weapon, why didn't she think of using it when she was in the dungeon?
At this moment, a familiar picture flashed through his mind, and just when Qiu Qianling was about to grasp this picture, the sound of long boots stepping on the stone steps came from outside the door.
Xie Yuqing is back!
Qiu Qianling glanced around, dodged and hid behind the door, then gripped the knife handle tightly with his backhand, with the back of the knife pressed against his arm.
The next moment, Xie Yuqing walked in. Qiu Qianling held his breath and waited until her entire back was exposed to his eyes. Then he swung his knife at her without hesitation.
The sharp blade energy, wrapped in surging power, accurately chopped Xie Yuqing's back. With a slight "swish" sound, a translucent soul was forcibly shaken out of the body, shrilly whistling in the air, exploded and shattered, and disappeared without a trace.
Qiu Qianling was a little surprised. How could he kill the evil spirit so easily? Before she could think, she saw Xie Yuqing's body fall softly backwards. She immediately stepped forward and stretched out her hands to embrace the body in her arms.
Then he took down the painting on the wall and followed the instructions of the person in the painting to let her soul return to her body.
"Qian Ling, thank you for saving me." Chi Qi looked at her with a smile, her tone full of gratitude.
Qiu Qianling lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, and the corners of his tightly pursed lips couldn't help but rise. He said in a low voice, "Master's wife has been so good to me. It's time for me to repay her once."
Chi Li reached out and touched her hair, stroking it gently. "What a good child you are who knows how to repay your kindness."
Qiu Qianling was very happy to receive the praise. Just as he was about to say something else, he suddenly remembered the monk in the dungeon and hurriedly said, "Master's wife, please release the girl in the dungeon quickly. She is so pitiful."
Chi Li took out a bunch of keys from her storage bag and placed them in her hand. "Go and let her out. The Sect Master is holding a sect meeting in Shangyang Palace. I should go there."
Qiu Qianling nodded obediently and watched Chi Li leave before turning around and returning to the dungeon.
She found the key, opened the tightly closed iron door, and saw the girl huddled in the dark corner.
For some reason, a sense of unease arose in my heart.
She slowly approached and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."
The girl trembled and raised her head. The light outside the cell door suddenly illuminated her pale face.
A face she was extremely familiar with.
Qiu Qianling froze in place for a moment, and the keys in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.
That face was actually her own!
In an instant, the sealed memories rushed out like a flood, and countless scenes flashed before her eyes.
He was deceived by Xie Yuqing, had his mother killed by her, had his spiritual roots dug out, fled to the Demon Realm, and recognized the thief as his mother...
The person who experienced all of this was Qiu Qianling!
Qiu Qianling regained consciousness and realized that he had entered an illusion and temporarily forgotten his past memories, which allowed Xie Yuqing to take advantage of the situation.
And once again, he was fooled by Xie Yuqing.
When she thought about how she had been deceived by Xie Yuqing and had called her "Master's Wife" so many times with such sincerity, she became so angry that her hands started shaking.
Qiu Qianling clenched the blood blade tightly in his hand, his eyes red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Xie Yuqing, I must kill you!"
She turned around, walked out of the dungeon, and headed straight for Shangyang Palace.
With a bang, the door of Shangyang Palace was kicked open.
Chi Qi sat at the head of the table and looked up without surprise, only to see that Qiu Qianling had returned to his real appearance.
The demon with white horns and black hair stood against the light, holding a knife in his hand, and walked towards her step by step.
"Have you thought about how you want to die?" Her voice was cold and cruel, like a sharp blade dripping with blood.
Chi Li curled the corners of her lips slightly, "No, but I have thought of my last words."
Qiu Qianling stopped and said, "Speak."
Chi Li raised her hand to support her cheek, leaned forward, and looked at her calmly, "If I say that the story just now is true, will Qian Ling believe it?"
Qiu Qianling's pupils suddenly shrank. What?
With a buzzing sound, the string that had been taut in my mind suddenly broke.
