Chapter 126 Kill! Kill! Kill! Little Peach Branch, don't be afraid.
Bitao was full and felt soft all over. Satisfied, she was then dragged by Mingguang to the clothing stores on the street that were still open to buy dresses.
There are many "immortals" coming and going in Luofan City. The members of the Immortal Alliance stationed there are even more unwilling to become mortals, even if they have lost their immortal pearls. Whenever they have a choice, their clothes and utensils must be imbued with "immortal aura".
Therefore, Bitao often wore a wide variety of dresses.
Mingguang seemed to have become addicted again, picking out one set after another for Bitao.
Bitao stood there, as obedient as a marionette, being manipulated by Mingguang.
The first thing Bitao felt was that something was wrong with her.
Her mind was blank; she wanted to think about something, but her thoughts wouldn't come together.
This brain looks like it's been ripped out by a dog for far too long.
No matter how much she loved Mingguang, she wouldn't be so infatuated as to lose her mind.
In this third competition, the power of the Five Yin Blazing was indeed the strongest.
In the end, the two of them selected two large bags of clothes and arranged with the shopkeeper to deliver them to the inn first thing the next morning.
Mingguang bought Bitao a lot of exquisite jewelry, rouge and face powder, in short, all the daily necessities for women.
It was past midnight, but Luofan City was still very lively.
Some vendors close their shops, but others have already opened their stores and started preparing foods like steamed buns and wontons that people eat in the morning.
Bitao and Mingguang strolled hand in hand along the sparsely populated street, as if they were not competing for immortal positions in the mortal realm, but rather an ordinary young couple.
In the prime of their lives, with deep affection for each other.
Bitao yawned, half-hanging on Mingguang's arm, as he dragged her toward the inn.
He muttered to himself, "The braised pig's trotters from that place weren't flavorful enough. They would be even better if they were grilled a bit more and served with a bottle of strong liquor."
Mingguang supported Bitao's entire weight with one arm, while carrying the things the two of them had bought in his other hand.
Hearing this, he stopped and gently said to Bitao, "If you want to drink, we can go buy some now. There are still many taverns open. If you want to eat roasted pig's trotters... we can buy them and ask the shopkeeper to roast them. We can also have some side dishes to go with the drinks, how about that?"
"The guy who sells braised pig's trotters has probably already gone back," Bitao said.
"Then we'll ask the vendors around here where they live, find their homes and buy from them. If we disturb their rest, we'll give them extra money as compensation."
Bitao smiled, put her arm around Mingguang's shoulder, and kissed the little red thing on his chin.
Although he managed to discern no red veins in his eyes, he was now completely certain that Mingguang was also acting strangely.
And they had just finished eating, and then they wanted to drink alcohol and eat roasted pig's trotters. They even went to look for them after the stalls had closed. This isn't just being a nuisance, it's being crazy.
Mingguang was never a very good person. Even when he was Wei Danxin, he would never have always gone along with Bitao.
Bitao suspected that even if she wanted to climb onto the roof and tear off the tiles, Mingguang would still go along with her.
If Bitao wanted a partner who would obey her every whim, she wouldn't have chosen Mingguang.
She loves a man with whom she can rely on each other, fight each other, check each other, and help each other. When they fight, they want to beat each other to a pulp, but when they get along, they can break the bed.
She enjoyed the occasional gentleness and tenderness, but that was enough.
However, the intense amplification of the five afflictions is not merely a single emotion. Mingguang would realize that he loves her more than ever before, and his feelings would become even more extreme, rather than being so submissive and obedient.
This little bird is just pretending.
Bitao should have noticed that Mingguang was acting strangely long ago, but when she met Mingguang, her five elements were quietly activated, and she herself was also acting strangely, so she didn't notice it sooner.
Once the two were out of the main street and no one was watching them, Mingguang picked up Bitao and carried her straight away.
He let Bitao sit on one of his arms like he was holding a child.
Every few steps, he would tilt his head back and kiss Bitao's chin and cheek, it was so sickeningly sweet it made one's scalp tingle.
Bitao wrapped her arms around Mingguang's neck. Although she wasn't drunk, she felt so intoxicated that her bones felt weak and her flesh was numb, and she was about to lose consciousness.
She was fully enjoying the overflowing happiness and peace of the moment, while pondering how to break this atmosphere of utter immersion.
If they continue in this state, they won't even need the ancient immortal clans to scheme against them; anyone could easily kill them.
Eagles soaring in the sky are hard to catch, but mandarin ducks playing in the water, oblivious to their surroundings, can be shot dead with a single arrow.
However, just as Bitao realized that the two of them shouldn't have come out alone, but should at least have a few people with them—a group of people suddenly emerged from the streets and alleys on both sides, some of them holding a large net, and quickly covered the two of them from behind!
Bitao drew the sword from Mingguang's waist and immediately slashed at the large net spread above their heads.
This group of people clearly came prepared, and this net was no ordinary object, but a magical artifact.
Ordinary swords couldn't cut through it at all, so Bitao instinctively mobilized the spiritual energy within her body.
Mingguang reacted a step behind Bitao, but he also tried to fight back. Unfortunately, by the time Bitao and Mingguang were caught in the net and became "prey," Bitao remembered that spirits were forbidden in Luofan City.
Hold.
She cursed him in her heart.
What I feared most has come to pass!
They actually capsized in the gutter!
Mingguang was originally holding Bitao, but after being covered by the large net, he shielded Bitao with his body. Before the net lifted off the ground, he put his fingers between his lips and teeth and whistled loudly in the empty streets late at night.
However, when the second sound rang out, a long sword was placed against Mingguang's neck.
"Take your hands out," a man ordered Mingguang menacingly.
Mingguang took his hand out of his mouth, not because he was worried about the knife at his neck, but because the tip of the knife had almost pierced the little peach branch in his arms.
The man clearly noticed that Mingguang cared about Bitao, and added, "If you dare to make another sound, I'll skewer you both with my knife!"
The large net was lifted off the ground, and Bitao and Mingguang huddled together as they were carried quickly into a dark alley.
Judging from their skillful methods, this is clearly not the first or second time they've done this.
Bitao recalled how she and Mingguang had been "parading around town" just now... She thought to herself that the allure of a gentle embrace has always been intoxicating and deadly!
However, no matter how dulled Bitao is by the intense heat of the five yin, she is not so oblivious as to be undetected by those who are watching her.
Even if she didn't notice, it's impossible that Mingguang didn't notice.
There was absolutely nothing unusual about it while we were on the street...
The mystery was finally solved when the two people were transported to a house far from the street behind the residence and placed in the main hall of a building.
The room was brightly lit by the ever-burning lamp, and soon a woman was escorted into the room.
After seeing the woman, Mingguang spoke in a cold and piercing voice: "Shuying".
know?
As the woman approached, Bitao noticed that she was also dressed in a pink dress and had a white veil around her neck. Bitao immediately realized that this was the female immortal that Mingguang had rescued from the brothel.
Mingguang had previously told Bitao that the rescued female fairy wanted to join their group, saying she had nowhere else to go.
"It's me, didn't expect that, did you?"
The woman whom Mingguang called Shuying responded to Mingguang's words.
She walked up to the two of them, and through the large net, leaned down to look at Mingguang and said, "I heard that you used several immortal pearls as bargaining chips in the Immortal Alliance to search extensively for a wood spirit woman dressed in a pink dress."
“You and your men should have been caught at the Flying Tower.”
"Who knew you'd be so capable? You injured so many of my men, yet you still managed to snatch me out..."
When this was mentioned, Shuying's expression was one of utter anguish.
Her beautiful face was now filled with a fierce look.
"But no matter how capable you are, you can't escape my net for catching immortals."
With her blood-red lips raised in one direction, Dongjun, who exuded a wicked aura and resembled a woman, was a man of striking beauty.
"Let me see, is this the woman you sought so desperately, even at the cost of immortal pearls?"
Mingguang protected the person in his arms from seeing, but he couldn't completely block Bitao from view.
Shuying walked around to Mingguang's side, and after seeing Bitao, she sneered, "They're protecting her quite well, but that's all they are."
"She's just average-looking, weak and pitiful, good for nothing but causing trouble... the kind of woman you men always love to protect!"
Bitao: "..."
This was the first time in her life that she had been associated with these words.
It's quite novel.
Mingguang pressed Bitao's head into his arms and glared angrily at Shuying.
"Are you being so protective of her?"
A look of jealousy and hatred flashed in Shuying's eyes. "Wasn't she already involved with that twin brother who looks exactly like you? I heard it all clearly from the second floor. They were obviously having an affair!"
"You forgave her so easily, and even took her out to buy her all sorts of random things to appease her. Humph, so foolish, you deserve to fall into our hands!"
As Shuying spoke, she kicked the bundle that Mingguang had been carrying earlier, which was in the large net. It was full of odds and ends he had bought for Bitao.
The two people were caught together in this magic net.
The cosmetic boxes and hairpins inside collided with each other with a loud "clang".
Feeling sorry for Mingguang, Bitao quickly pulled the bundle from under his arm.
These were all carefully selected by Mingguang for her; please don't let them get damaged.
Shuying saw Bitao's actions and snorted coldly again.
He said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
"Once I've dug out your two immortal pearls, I'll let you continue being illicit lovers."
"However... I really want to know, now that you love her and protect her so much, what will happen when she loses the Immortal Pearl and becomes a lowly woman who is constantly captured, humiliated, and even sold to high-ranking officials and nobles? Will you still be so willing to risk your life and give your all for her?"
When Shuying spoke of these things, her voice was filled with gnashing hatred.
Didn't she ever have a man who would give her everything?
However... when she fell into the mire and lost the fairy pearl, that man abandoned her like trash.
Finally, she was questioned: although she had lost the Immortal Pearl, she still possessed cultivation techniques and was not an ordinary, weak woman. Why did she not fight to the death to escape and preserve her chastity? Why did she not die when she was being humiliated?
Why does she want to die?!
She had long ago killed those who had humiliated her, and after waiting for decades, the man who had promised to protect her for all eternity also lost his immortal pearl.
Then they cut off his limbs, turned him into a human pig, trapped him in a jar, and dragged him to the street to perform and earn money every day.
She discovered that her "appearance" was very useful. In this world, if a female immortal wasn't ruthless and didn't use herself as bait to set up a trap to capture an immortal position, and use benefits to make others follow and support her, she would have long since fallen to who knows where.
Shuying looked down at the two lovers who had been caught in the trap.
It's as if I'm seeing my younger self.
Her eyes welled up for a moment, but she quickly recovered.
She drew out her words: "It's a pity I won't be able to see how you turned against each other. I'm going to the Ascension Ceremony. Maybe I'll be chosen this time. When I return to heaven and confirm my position... I will take care of all the iniquities in this star realm."
"Don't worry, if the two of you don't kill each other, you might still have a chance to die."
"Come on, separate these two illicit lovers! I need to dig out that female immortal's Wood Spirit Pearl first!"
She had waited many years to finally obtain a Wood Spirit Pearl.
I was already overjoyed when I heard that a man from the Immortal Alliance was looking for the Wood Spirit.
Originally, she collaborated with Feitianlou to eliminate this "generous" man and his entire team.
Who would have thought that everyone in his team was a master, even the little brat who was blind in one eye was incredibly skilled at throwing knives.
It caused them to lose a lot of people.
However, this also allowed her to successfully infiltrate their group as a "weak woman".
Doesn't this give her an opportunity to go out alone with someone?
In Luofan City, they actually dared to go out for a wild stroll in the middle of the night.
Men and women who fall in love are always the most foolish!
Upon hearing Shuying's words, the group rushed forward, first pinning Mingguang to the ground, then hurriedly lifting the large net, and about ten people surrounded and dragged Bitao out.
Without spiritual energy to draw upon, even a mighty tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves.
Looking at the three layers of burly men here, all of whom were immortals who knew some kind of cultivation techniques, Bitao understood for the first time in her life what the human wave tactic was.
Despite her exceptional skills, she failed to resist several times and could not overcome the power of the masses.
Bitao was brought before Shuying, her knees were kicked, and she was forced to kneel on the ground.
Shuying sat on the stool, without saying a word, holding a knife in her hand, about to stab Bitao in the stomach.
Mingguang was pinned to the ground. He turned to look at Xiaotaozhi and saw that Shuying was about to draw her knife. He was filled with remorse and pain.
He only regretted that he hadn't killed Shuying then and there, and instead he had let the wolf into the house and brought her into the group, allowing her to seize the opportunity to ambush the two of them!
Mingguang stared at the knife in Shuying's hand, his eyes turning bloodshot, and roared, "Take my Immortal Pearl if you want! If you dare touch a single hair on her head, I will make sure you all die!"
Shuying, who was about to stab Bitao in the abdomen, froze for a moment, momentarily lost in thought.
She looked at Bitao and said, "Back then, my man also said such harsh words for me."
"Heh." Shuying smiled crookedly again.
She told Bitao, "At that time, his love for me was so true that he was willing to destroy the world for me. Even when I was punished, he did not complain at all."
"But you'll find out later that everything a man says, no matter the situation, is bullshit!"
She was about to strike again as she spoke.
Bitao immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Wait a minute!"
"Why go through all the trouble of digging for immortal pearls yourself? I have plenty. You can have them if you want."
"I'll give you a hundred as long as you don't hurt either of us."
"Moreover, my people are also going to the Ascension Ceremony, so we can travel together."
Looking at the woman before her, Bitao knew that in this Star Realm, the fate of female immortals was ten times more dangerous than that of male immortals.
If Bitao hadn't been able to fight back and escape, wouldn't she have been sent to be used as a furnace?
In fact, whether in this astral realm or the mortal astral realm, all children, the elderly, the weak, and women are the most severely persecuted.
In such a cruel star realm, to gather a group of immortals to serve her, no matter how despicable the method, Bitao did not think it was excessive.
She said, "We can definitely cooperate and achieve a win-win situation. Or, as you said before, you could join our ranks, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
"ha……"
Shuying pressed her dagger against Bitao's cheek and said, "You're not only pitiful, but also full of cunning and eloquent."
"No wonder he managed to fool both twin brothers so completely."
"But your approach won't work on me."
"Regardless of how capable your men are, you've captured so many immortals and imprisoned them in the backyard, so you must be quite capable yourself."
The woman pressed her knife against Bitao's face and slapped Bitao with the tip of her knife: "I promise to release you today, but tomorrow we will be sent to the Immortal Alliance to be put up for sale."
Do you think I'm stupid?
"Do you know why I was able to break away from the Immortal Alliance in this Fallen City and still remain undefeated?"
"I am never greedy."
"I don't trust anyone."
After the woman finished speaking, she plunged the knife into Bitao's abdomen without hesitation.
Bitao grunted and lowered her head, about to say, "Don't mess around, I'll dig out the immortal pearl for you myself."
Mingguang suddenly shouted "Ah—!"
The sound was so heart-wrenching, it was almost inhuman.
Bitao turned to look at him and saw that Mingguang had gone mad, his veins bulging all over his body, his golden eyes blood red, and he was struggling frantically, even at the cost of self-harm.
Bitao didn't have time to discuss things with the woman. She turned to Mingguang and said, "Mingguang, Mingguang! Don't struggle, I'm fine. She just wants the Immortal Pearl..."
"Hmph, don't pretend to be so infatuated in front of me."
After the woman finished speaking, she turned the tip of the knife inside Bitao's stomach.
Bitao couldn't help but let out another muffled groan.
This woman clearly hasn't taken many people's magic pearls before; she's just messing around haphazardly!
"Let me go in a minute... I'll get it for you myself. I know where it is..."
"If you shred my internal organs, I'll die. Then you'll be burdened with karma and still want to ascend to heaven and attain your position?"
Shuying wasn't very skilled at retrieving the Immortal Pearl, and she was also worried about Bitao dying. She gestured to the people next to her, and someone released one of Bitao's arms.
Bitao gritted her teeth and reached into her abdomen.
Shuying assumed she knew the exact location and needed to use a knife to cut it out, but before she could even hand her the knife, she saw her reach into her own abdomen...
Shuying was finally shocked by her calmness and "ruthlessness"!
The other onlookers had never seen such a ruthless person before, and they were all stunned for a moment.
Just then, Mingguang, who had been suppressed, seized the opportunity when everyone was stunned and broke free from the suppression of more than twenty people.
Just as Bitao touched her immortal pearl, Mingguang lifted the immortal-catching net and drew the sword from the waist of a man not far from him.
He raised his sword and swiftly swept it away!
The man, who looked utterly astonished, had his head fly off his own neck.
When it landed with a "thud," its eyes even blinked.
Blood sprayed directly onto the roof, and the people who were about to rush up and suppress Mingguang again were all dumbfounded.
The dull thud of the head hitting the ground was like the war drums signaling the start of a massacre by an evil god.
The group of immortals, stunned and unable to believe their companions had been killed, were chopped to pieces by the irrational Mingguang, who slicing them into pieces like melons and vegetables.
"ah!"
"Aaaaaah! Murder! He really killed someone!"
Startled, Shuying dropped the dagger in her hand. Forgetting about Bitao's fairy pearl, she jumped up from the chair and ran outside.
Mingguang moved like lightning, his eyes bloodshot, and in the blink of an eye, he had already poked all the standing immortals in the hall.
They all attacked his vital points!
Bitao knelt there, staring blankly at the corpses scattered on the ground and the rivers of blood flowing down her face for a moment.
She tightened her belt around her stomach and quickly got up to stop Mingguang.
However, because she couldn't use her spiritual energy to heal herself, and Shuying stirred her stomach a couple of times, like an ordinary person who had a hole punched in it, she lost all her strength.
They couldn't even catch up with Mingguang in time, and could only watch helplessly as the long sword he had snatched was wielded with impenetrable speed, like a meat grinder on the battlefield that reaped lives wherever it went—everyone was left without a complete corpse!
There were originally at least a hundred people in this courtyard, otherwise there would have been no way to control Mingguang and Bitao.
But these immortals have seen blood, been disemboweled by others, and also disemboweled others.
The tacitly agreed-upon rule of "not killing" seems to be an unspoken rule among the immortals of this realm.
Those who occasionally lost control due to deep-seated hatred and grudges also suffered the consequences.
Therefore, they really only intended to dig out the immortal pearls from the two people and then send them back.
But they didn't expect that Mingguang would actually dare to kill someone.
Moreover, he killed dozens of people in the blink of an eye. He was as ferocious as a demon, and anyone locked onto by his scarlet gaze would be decapitated in the blink of an eye.
“Mingguang…”
"Mingguang!"
Bitao clutched her stomach and chased after Mingguang, who had burst out of the door.
The celestial tablets in the courtyard scattered and fled, like a flock of lambs in a sheepfold invaded by wolves.
Making random "baa" noises will only hasten their death.
Bitao's mind was filled with nothing but "fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!"
Oh no, oh ...!
However, she was already too weak due to blood loss and internal organ damage.
He called out again, "Mingguang..."
Then, while going down the steps, he lost his footing and fell to the ground.
Mingguang, who had become completely bloodthirsty and slaughtered this group of people like livestock without batting an eye, finally heard Bitao's shout.
He turned around and ran over quickly, catching Bitao.
Bitao felt the stench of blood rushing into her nostrils.
Mingguang's body was soaked in blood in such a short time.
His snow-white robe turned blood-red, sticky and rusty, obscuring his entire face.
He was like a demon that had just crawled out of a pool of blood, devoid of reason, thought, and senses, with only the desire to kill!
After being caught by him, Bitao quickly clung to his shoulders, hugged him tightly, and clung to him.
She said to him, "I'm fine, I'm really fine!"
"Mingguang, look at me!"
Mingguang finally lowered his eyes to look at Bitao.
Bitao cupped his face and said, "I'm just... I'm just a little injured... Let's go back quickly. Taiji is here at the inn, I'll be fine!"
Mingguang placed one hand on Bitao's back. Upon hearing her words, his gaze swept over her blood-soaked abdomen, and his scarlet pupils instantly narrowed into thin lines.
Bitao quickly grabbed his neck, disregarding the blood, and kissed his blood-stained lips.
She hugged his neck and whispered in his ear, "Please, take me back quickly..."
"Mingguang, let's go back quickly, I'm in so much pain, I need treatment."
"Mingguang, wake up!"
Bitao realized that Mingguang's intense five yin energy couldn't possibly be just being extremely gentle with her, but she never expected that he could lose control of his five yin energy to this extent.
Mingguang's eyes seemed to regain a bit of clarity thanks to Bitao.
He bent down, his face a bloody mess, and kissed Bitao's smooth forehead, leaving horrifying bloodstains on her face and forehead.
He held the sword in one hand and wrapped the other arm around Bitao's legs. Bitao hugged his neck and was quickly lifted up by him with one arm.
They walked toward the door.
The gate had been tightly closed to prevent Bitao and Mingguang from escaping.
In a short while, only a small gap was opened, and many people squeezed out, piling up one on top of the other like a group of irrational, foolish creatures eager to escape their "sheepfold".
There are still many immortal positions that haven't been cleared out over the gate.
Among them was Shuying, who had previously stabbed Bitao twice.
She usually relies on her ability to act as bait, and she is smart enough to set up schemes and obtain immortal pearls. These so-called immortal subordinates all trust her and protect her.
But when it came to a matter of life and death, no one trusted her enough to let her run first.
Instead, they trampled her underfoot, using her as a stepping stone, until she was almost vomiting blood.
Teams can come together for mutual benefit, but not for evil.
A group united by evil will one day betray and kill each other, just as it is now.
In order to run faster, some people, seeing Mingguang, this "devilish demon," approaching, did not hesitate to grab Shuying, the culprit, and push her towards Mingguang.
Bitao hugged Mingguang tightly, comforting him and kissing him to stop him from killing anyone else.
But just as Shuying, who had been pushed to the ground, finally staggered to her feet and was about to run out the door, Mingguang suddenly raised the hand holding his sword, swiftly twisted his wrist half a circle, and then flung the blood-stained longsword away—
"Mingguang!"
Bitao turned around and pressed his arm, but it was too late.
The longsword spun rapidly in mid-air, and when it reached the doorway, its tip pointed directly at the door, where it thrust fiercely.
The sound pierced through the back of Shuying, who was running out of the door, with a muffled thud.
The shadows were directly embedded in the wooden door.
He was pierced through the heart by a sword and died on the spot.
Bitao closed her eyes.
I heard someone running towards us from the street.
Someone is calling out, "Peach Blossom Fairy, Peach Blossom Fairy, where are you?!"
Soon a group of people rushed into the door that had been pulled open.
But upon seeing the courtyard filled with corpses, they all froze at the doorway.
Only after Taiji was stunned for a moment did he run to Bitao's side like a madman and reach out to touch her.
But Mingguang kicked him mercilessly, sending him tumbling twice on the ground.
He was covered in blood and almost kissed a severed corpse head!
After getting up, the way he looked at Mingguang was as if he were looking at a living Yama, the King of Hell.
At this moment, Mingguang turned over the inside of his robe to find the only relatively clean spot, and then, holding Bitao, he lowered his head to wipe the bloodstains on Bitao's face that had been soiled by his kisses.
His golden eyes returned to a bright, luminous golden hue.
He moved gently, just like when he wiped Bitao's mouth at the braised pork stall, and said with utmost tenderness, "Little Peach Branch, don't be afraid."
Mingguang looked at Bitao, a restrained yet sweet smile curving his lips.
He said, "It's already dawn. I'll go get you some strong liquor and pig's trotters, and I'll roast them for you in a little while."
