Chapter 348 The Severed Head and the Witch



People have seven emotions and six desires, and ascending to become an immortal does not mean cutting off the seven emotions and six desires. Some immortals are able to stick to their duties as immortals, just like the earthly immortals who stay in the human world with the Nine Ministers, who are willing to complete their mission even if they perish.

Of course, there are also people who will do anything for their own selfish interests.

But what Gu Zhou couldn't understand was that since it was sealed, why did they have to build a tomb with a door of life and a door of death? Wouldn't it be better to just seal it directly?

Although Gu Zhou thought so, he did not ask. After all, it was Qi Jing who sealed him, and he had lost his memory now, so he couldn't answer him even if he asked.

The four people walked in the passage for a long time without touching anything, but they could not get out of the passage. Moreover, the whole way was illuminated by night pearls, which was really arrogant.

Qi Jingdu was tired from walking, so he let go of Gu Zhou's hand and took the night pearl on the wall.

Gu Zhou followed and said, "Uncle, it's better not to touch the things in here."

Qi Jing said nothing. He threw the Night Pearl to the ground, angrily put his hands on his hips, and said, "If you don't come out, I will smash this place up and kick that head like a ball."

Qi Jing's voice was so loud that it echoed many times in the invisible passage.

Yu Duoduo just felt eerie and naturally moved closer to Qi Jing. She was a little scared.

Gu Mo was also very nervous. He reached out and grabbed Yu Duoduo's wrist and pulled it back. If there was really any danger and a fight broke out, the two of them would obviously be a burden, so leaving was the best option.

Gu Zhou frowned. As soon as he stood behind Qi Jing, a black mist surged out from the passage in front of him, accompanied by a foul smell that made it impossible for people to open their eyes.

Qi Jing didn't want to be disgusted, so the moment he felt something appear, he raised his hand and condensed a barrier to block out the smell.

The black fog approached and stopped after hitting the barrier. A girl in black slowly walked out of the black fog.

The girl didn't look very old, about seventeen or eighteen years old. There was a red spider lily on her forehead, which was the only color on her body.

Gu Zhou frowned at the girl in black, "Are you the female immortal who ascended with me?"

The girl did not answer, but instead looked at Qi Jing. Her eyes were slightly cold, and she was about to speak when she was interrupted by Gu Zhou's words.

"Gu Mo, take her out first."

Gu Mo knew it must be about Qi Jing. He responded, took Yu Duoduo's hand and disappeared quickly, teleporting outside to wait.

Gu Zhou watched the man leave before saying, "You can talk now."

The girl lowered her eyes and then raised them again. "I didn't want to leave, and I didn't want to hurt anyone again. Why did you come? Do you regret it?"

The girl was obviously asking Qi Jing. Her dark pupils were colorless, without any sadness or joy, just like a pool of stagnant water.

Qi Jing was confused and looked back at Gu Zhou. He didn't come here to cause trouble. He came here because the God-Binding Formation was dangerous.

Gu Zhou quickly explained, "Don't be too hasty to misunderstand. There is a grave on your head that has been set up with an evil formation. The two formations are connected together, so we came here."

The girl's eyelashes trembled slightly. She raised her hand to disperse the black mist behind her and asked again, "Why did Tianzun lose his soul? Does he not remember the past?"

Qi Jing nodded and looked seriously at the girl opposite him, "I was the one who sealed you, how come you don't look like you hate me at all?"

"Why should I hate you?" the girl asked. She didn't think there was anything to hate, but then she thought that Qi Jing must have forgotten since he was not in the state of consciousness, so she said, "Come with me."

After saying that, the girl turned and walked forward. Qi Jing maintained the barrier and pulled Gu Zhou to follow. He felt that there was a big gossip in this and he wanted to hear it.

Led by a young girl, the long passage soon reached the end, and after passing through it was a tomb chamber.

There was a stone platform in the center of the tomb, on which was placed a head. The head opened its eyes the moment the two men stepped in.

"Lord of Heaven." The head called out in surprise, then turned to look at the girl with a worried look in his eyes.

The girl replied, "The Heavenly Master's spirit is gone, and he has lost his memory."

The head heaved a sigh of relief, turned his gaze back to Qi Jing and said, "Manman's evil spirit has not been eliminated, and the divine restraining formation shows signs of loosening. We need to ask the Heavenly Venerable to strengthen the seal to prevent the evil spirit from leaking out of Manman."

He was very conscious, and Gu Zhou was confused. "So what happened between you? Why did it trigger a natural disaster and be sealed here by your uncle?"

Manman didn't want to answer this question, so she turned around and floated away through the stone wall. Her head was placed on the stone platform, unable to move. After a while, she slowly spoke.

"Manman and I were originally cultivation partners. I took Manman with me the day I attained enlightenment. This was a good thing, but I didn't know that the gods in the heavenly realm are also divided into different levels after ascending..."

The plot is similar to what Gu Zhou expected, but not exactly the same.

The head is named Xiao Ran, who ascended to heaven through cultivation. Because he gained great merit by slaying demons and monsters in the human world, he obtained a higher immortal position in the heaven.

But Manman is different. She was brought to the heaven by Xiao Ran. Her cultivation level is barely up to the level of an earthly immortal. She can be an earthly immortal in the human world, but in the heaven she can only be a sweeping fairy moth, which is the so-called heavenly maid.

Even so, it was still okay. Xiao Ran took Manman with him, thinking that after he made meritorious deeds in the fairy world, he could marry Manman and become her fairy couple.

They looked forward to the future, but did not forget their immortal duties. However, an accident soon happened.

Xiao Ran said, "I don't know why, but Biling insisted that Manman seduced her fiancé. Not only did she break Manman's immortal bone, she also pushed her into the Demonic Abyss where the Heavenly Venerable sealed the demonic energy."

Xiao Ran's eyes were filled with hatred and regret as he spoke. He squeezed his eyes shut and continued, "When I came back, it was too late. The whole fairy world was saying that Manman seduced Biling's fiancé. I didn't believe it, and I just wanted to find Manman.

I went to find Biling to ask where Manman was, and she said Manman was dead. I got so angry that I started fighting with her, and it was wrong of me to implicate the people of the world. But Manman didn't do that. It was Biling who slandered Manman and even attacked her!

This is very difficult to settle. Gu Zhou feels that if he were Xiao Ran, he would also take action. After all, she is his beloved. When he is too excited, he will not care about anything else.

But it is indeed wrong and a sin to harm so many lives in the world because of this.

Gu Zhou asked, "What about Biling? Wasn't she punished?"

Xiao Ran lowered his eyes and said calmly, "After Biling and I fought, I was imprisoned by the then Heavenly Monarch. When I came out, Biling was already dead, and the Heavenly Monarch was also punished by the Heavenly Venerable. The Heavenly Venerable took me to the Demonic Abyss to rescue Manman, but Manman had already been infected with the demonic energy, so the Heavenly Venerable could only suppress Manman and me here."

"Then why should I chop off your head? There is no explanation about Biling on the mural." Qi Jing felt confused. If he wanted to give an explanation to the creatures in the world, he should have made it clear.

Xiao Ran replied, "The Heavenly Venerable was injured at the time, and he seemed to want to quickly resolve the matter and return to recuperate. He simply explained the situation to the mortal world and chopped off my head to give an explanation to the mortal world."
