Chapter 926 As They Wish
The Ninth Clan Leader’s face was gloomy at this time.
Just as Jiang Xuxu said, the ancestral hall was indeed covered with corpses.
The ancestral hall would be renovated every ten years.
The women who were sacrificed were sent to the ancestral hall during this period, and then they would sleep forever underground.
But so what?
As a member of the clan, it was their honor to use one life to ensure the prosperity of the clan for generations. This
was especially true for the nineteen chaste women, including Fang.
They died in the village, and then returned to this village after reincarnation. Isn’t this another kind of endless life?
The Ninth Clan Leader did not think that the ancestors’ actions were wrong.
If it were him, he would make the same choice.
Compared to the righteousness of the clan leader, the women who were originally standing at the screen wall also burst into tears.
They either thought it was horrifying, or, like Fang Wei, they felt the resentment of being trapped under this stone plaque, and realized belatedly that they were also bound by fate.
They were unwilling and resentful.
But they could do nothing.
They could only watch their resentment turn into the fortune of supporting the tribe members, allowing this tribe to continue to grow and become stronger.
Every few years, a great man would appear in the Ninth Village.
They were complacent and lived a glamorous life, but they didn't know that each of them was stepping on countless corpses.
And no matter how many times they reincarnate, they can never escape the prison of the Ninth Clan.
Such a prison...
should have been destroyed long ago!
Fang Wei looked up with red eyes, looking at the magnificent and elegant ancestral hall in front of her, and suddenly a somewhat miserable wail came out of her throat, and then she rushed into the main hall regardless of anything.
She raised her hand and smashed everything she saw.
The members of the Ninth Clan came back to their senses from the shock, and they were instantly angry when they saw Fang Wei's actions.
How dare this woman blaspheme the ancestors? !
"Stop!"
Someone shouted angrily and was about to rush forward, but as soon as he moved, he was thrown to the ground by someone behind him.
It was the women of the clan who had been standing behind the screen wall.
Fang Wei's action seemed to have touched some suppressed nerve in them, and they rushed forward regardless.
They stopped all the tribesmen who tried to stop them.
In an instant, the men and women in the main temple were fighting.
The chaotic scene made the ninth clan leader spit out blood again.
Jiang Xuxu stood in the barrier, watching the chaotic scene, just like the resentment in the barrier, wailing and venting hundreds of years of resentment.
She closed her eyes.
If destroying this place can make your resentment dissipate.
Then she will do as they wish.
With her eyes open, Jiang Xuxu drew out two golden lights from the golden light barrier.
The golden light hit the black wood lotus.
The lotus radiated golden light, and the luck in the ancestral hall seemed to be attracted, and began to flow into the stone plaque through the black wood lotus.
The resentment in the barrier seemed to be soothed, and returned to the stone plaque bit by bit.
When the last bit of resentment returned, Jiang Xuxu quickly pinched the magic formula in her hand,
"The way of heaven is clear, the way of earth is peaceful, the way of man is empty, the three talents are one, the heaven and the earth are one, I obey the amnesty order..."
She concentrated her voice and read out the last word of the amnesty order,
"Break!"
There was a click, as if something broke, and first cracks appeared on the four stone pillars of the main ancestral hall.
Then, the cracks spread little by little, cracking along the bluestone slabs of the patio, and finally gathered on the stone plaque with the words [Stay Chaste and Loyal].
There was another crack.
The stone plaque cracked straight in the middle. It was obviously stone, but blood was flowing from it.
This movement startled the tribesmen who had been getting along well.
They looked at the cracked floor and vaguely saw the bones buried under the stone slab.
These were the corpses of the women buried in the ancestral hall that Jiang Xuxu had just mentioned.
The young tribesmen who were still in disbelief about these things were instantly frightened by the scene in front of them.
Someone shouted in surprise,
"The ancestral hall is going to collapse!"
As if it was a warning, the tribesmen no longer cared about anything else, and they pulled or dragged the people around them, and a group of people fled out.
In a blink of an eye, only Jiang Xuxu, Chu Beihe and the tribe leader were left in the ancestral hall.
Chu Beihe looked at the bones exposed underground and the insects that were vaguely crawling in the bones, and frowned. With
a slight movement of his fingertips, the golden barrier instantly pressed towards the ground, and then, as if it had wrapped something, he put it away.
The clan leader, seeing the cracked stone pillars and feeling the luck in the ancestral hall almost dissipated, stared at Jiang Xuxu with bloodshot eyes,
"You...how dare you..."
Jiang Xuxu looked at him, her eyes as cold as water, with some disgust and indifference, but she opened her mouth and said,
"Just this is not enough." As
she spoke, the spells in her hands changed quickly, and her fingertips quickly formed talismans in the void, and she chanted at the same time,
"Heaven and earth fire virtue, all laws are burned, Sanmao Zhenjun, give me the magic formula..."
The clouds above her head gathered quickly.
The black thunderclouds instantly enveloped the ancestral hall.
Director Gao and his group were originally in a stalemate with the villagers, but when they saw the black clouds gathering in the distance, they seemed to have thought of something. Their eyes lit up, and they ignored everything else and forced their way through the villagers' obstruction and quickly headed in the direction of the thunderclouds.
Outside the ancestral hall, the tribesmen who had just run out also noticed the movement, turned back subconsciously, and were instantly shocked by the black clouds above the ancestral hall.
Fang Wei was still immersed in resentment, and was pulled by other women to rush in.
At this moment, a flash of lightning passed through the black cloud.
"…Use the talisman as a basis and the thunder as a guide."
Jiang Xuxu's clear voice somehow reached her ears clearly from the ancestral hall.
"Please obey the amnesty order and let the flames shake the four directions!"
With this amnesty order, a fire thunder quickly fell from the clouds.
Fang Wei's pupils trembled, as if she realized something, and tears flowed uncontrollably again.
Inside the ancestral hall.
Jiang Xuxu stood in the barrier and watched the fire thunder directly hit the cracked stone plaque.
The fire thunder was so powerful that the moment it fell, it immediately split the cracked stone plaque into two halves.
However, this was not enough.
As the first fire thunder landed, several more fire thunders fell from the clouds.
The thunder and fire flashed with lightning and crackled, and each time they hit the stone plaque accurately.
Until the stone plaque of chastity, which represented oppression, was completely smashed into pieces.
Fang Wei and the other women outside the ancestral hall seemed to have sensed something, and smiles appeared on their faces, which were originally crying in panic.
They cried and laughed, as if crazy.
But, so what?
Inside the ancestral hall, the ninth clan leader watched helplessly as the stone plaque of chastity, which represented the honor of the clan members, was turned into countless pieces of stone by the lightning.
But that's not all.
The fire thunder landed, and the thunder and fire instantly burned all over the ancestral hall. In a blink of an eye, a raging fire broke out in the ancestral hall.
The ninth clan leader didn't care about anything else, and cried and tried to stop it, but was dragged out of the ancestral hall by several clan members who rushed in again.
And Jiang Xuxu, watching the resentment completely dissipate as the stone plaque was smashed, finally revealed a sense of relief on his face.
Chu Beihe looked at her and asked,
"Is this enough?"
"Yes,"
Jiang Xuxu said.
This is what they wished for.
Chu Beihe nodded and said nothing more, but just reached out and held her hand.
The next second, the two of them disappeared in the ancestral hall surrounded by flames.
