Linghu Yuan looked at the lacquer box, his expression showing a touch of sadness, "I have spent all my heart and blood on these two 'Yueshen Pills'. They are extremely precious. However, they have passed away like this, they are already precious to me." Useless things, take them if you want them!”
Linghu Feng was extremely happy and bowed deeply. Then he asked: "Will you kill this useless man with your own hands, or will your nephew send him to the West?"
"The souls of my loyal servants are scattered everywhere. I still have things to do. I don't have this leisure and elegance!" Linghu Yuan didn't even look at him, his sleeves shook slightly, and the golden soul slowly disappeared.
Linghu Feng turned to his six eyes with a cold light, "Your immortal body is exposed outside the basin, and it will soon weaken. You can only live for seven days, which is the limit of the Transformation Pill. I am extremely happy to give you a happy life!" "
Liumu was in a depressed mood, but he would not sit still and wait for death. He flew out with the "Tianmu", trying to seize the opportunity, but as soon as the "Tianmu" took off, it fell to the ground exhausted.
Cheng Yuan laughed wildly and said: "A dying person still wants to use magic power? How stupid is he?"
Since Ying Yue showed up, she hasn't said a word, just stared at him coldly. At this moment, she slowly stepped forward, holding a sharp long sword, and sneered: "Why bother talking, one sword can solve the problem!"
When she was one step away from Liumu, she suddenly drew her sword, and the sword edge slid past Liumu. The sword energy was so strong that gravel flew and opened a big hole in the tower wall. The dust and smoke filled the air, making it impossible to see. Linghu Feng was shocked and turned pale. He threw the flying sword and then waved his sleeves to clear away the smoke. Liumu and Yingyue disappeared without a trace along with the lacquer box.
"This wretched maid actually harbored betrayal. He caught Fei, skinned her, fried her bones and put her in the alchemy furnace!"
"Sir, there is blood on the ground. One of them is injured. Chase him quickly!"
The two of them ran along the blood trail until they reached a cliff. The blood trail ended and Ying Yue's clothes were hanging on a branch. Linghu Feng jumped down without even thinking. The cliff returned to tranquility, and for a moment, a thin gasp came from the grass.
"Although I tricked them into leaving, they will return soon. I am injured and can't escape far. I can't harm you!"
Checking Ying Yue's wounds with six eyes, he found that he had been hit by a sword in the back and was covered in blood. It was very serious. "What are you doing?" he lamented softly.
"I was originally a disciple of the Linghu family. I was favored by the young master and had no choice but to commit myself to him. But the young master was cruel and cold, much like his uncle Linghu Yuan. He secretly bought human souls, placed them in Qiyue City, and then killed them , condensed resentment, and corroded the seal of the 'Tianmu', the poison in his heart is better than that of snakes and scorpions. And you are very kind, I can't watch you die!"
"But my body is already weak and I can't support it..."
Yingyue suddenly grabbed his hand, "Liu Mu in Qiyue City will never give up. You have to find a way to find the head of the Linghu family, expose the young master's evil deeds, and then ask the head of the family to extend your life. Also, this' The Yueshen Pill must not fall into the wrong hands!"
Yingyue opened the box and saw two pills all covered with blood. "I don't know how to take them. I would rather destroy them than leave them to them!" She picked up the pills and when she was hesitating, the hot breath melted them. Inhale all of it into your mouth.
She put another one under Liumu's nose and watched it inhale, then she smiled. "If we truly become immortal souls, we must support justice and always do good deeds!"
Liumu nodded solemnly, Yingyue's eyes showed gentle sadness, "Linghu Yuan deceived you. Ningshuang took the Jianling Pill and became a strange soul. The underworld cannot tolerate it and cannot be reincarnated. At this moment, he has become a lonely ghost. You must Help her!"
While he was talking, there were the sounds of clattering footsteps in the distance. Yingyue was shocked and urged Liumu: "Leave me alone, run!" Liumu hesitated, but Yingyue suddenly pushed him away, struggled to get up, and jumped off the cliff...
(Subsequent: Yingyue survived after jumping off the cliff. She was rescued by Saint Nimoti of Qingyu Temple, converted to his sect, and later became a master. With her immortal soul, she was reincarnated in nine lives, one step away from ascending to immortality. But the success fell short. The rest of the story is specifically recorded in the "Ninth Saint Maiden" of my previous work "The Legend of the Demon Cauldron".)
With tears in his eyes, he turned back and ran wildly. The figures of Yingyue and Ningshuang appear repeatedly in his mind, and what does Que Xiu in Linghu Feng's mouth have to do with him? And where is Ningshuang now? Is it still attached to the "Tianmu"? Many questions made him uneasy.
He quickly exhausted himself and collapsed to the ground. It seemed that what he said was true, as his body was rapidly weakening. He looked around. Countless torches were scattered in the mountains, like a sea of stars. It seemed that Linghu Feng had spent a lot of money. He took a break and had an idea in his mind.
He sneaked back to the manor at night. Sure enough, it was brightly lit, but there were few people around. He hid in the shadows and searched everywhere. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and a maid came with small steps carrying tea.
"It's so late, who needs tea?" Liu Mu was confused and followed quietly.
The maid opened the door of a hall and stepped in. Her eyes were hidden under the window and she listened carefully.
"Forsythia, sir, why did you mobilize so many people to search the mountain? Are you disturbing my dream?"
"I reported to the master that the slave family heard that a thief sneaked into the elixir room and stole the elixir, so the master personally led people to search the mountain."
"My son has been very diligent recently, I am very happy!"
Then the maid's faint footsteps faded away, Liu Mu opened the door and stepped in without thinking. Inside the room was a middle-aged man with a slight beard, well-dressed in fine clothes, and not angry but proud.
Liumu knelt down on one knee and saluted him: "The villain is not a bad person. He broke in recklessly and has something important to report!"
A trace of surprise flashed across the head of the family's face, then he sat down calmly and motioned for him to speak.
Liu Mu narrated the whole story. After hearing this, the master's face changed drastically. Surprise and anger flashed alternately. Suddenly he stood up and shouted, "This arrogant slave! I thought he went in and out of the secret realm to collect medicine and make elixirs, but who knew he actually did it?" Such an outrageous act!"
He rushed forward and helped Liu Mu up, "The strong man has been wronged! I will punish that slave severely according to the family law, and I will not be lenient! Yingyue is also a loyal person, where is she now? No matter what, I must save her life!" "
"She was seriously injured and fell off the cliff again. I'm afraid..."
"Where are those two 'Yueshen Pills' now?"
"The situation was urgent, and we both inhaled it separately."
The head of the family looked suspicious, "This 'Yueshen Pill' is an evil thing. It must be handed over to me for proper handling. You should not hide anything."
"It's really absorbed!"
The two looked at each other for a moment, but the head of the family couldn't find any flaws. He sighed: "It seems that you have really taken it. Then, there is no need to continue the drama!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yuan led several people to break down the door and enter. Then look at the head of the family lightly dusting the sleeves of his robe, suddenly turning into Linghu Feng. "I had expected that you would take advantage of the situation, so I laid out suspicions and waited for you to fall into the trap. My father has been in seclusion for several months, and I want to file a complaint with him. What a wishful thinking!"
He was caught with six eyes and tied up with five flowers. He struggled hard and cursed. Cheng Yuan stuffed a piece of rag into his mouth and his ears were clean. He asked: "Sir, this guy has taken the 'Yueshen Pill', what should we do with him?"
Linghu Feng sneered: "By refining his soul with the 'Red Lotus Fire', he can reforge the 'Yue Shen Pill'. Hurry to the bottom of the cliff to find that bastard servant. As long as there is still breath left, this method will be effective."
In the early morning in the mountain valley, the morning dew has not yet dried, and the birds are chirping. The Linghu Family's Nine-turn Universe Furnace is simple and solemn, with more than ten people standing around. Cheng Yuan held the purple gold gourd and looked arrogant. Liu Mu was brought up, with rags stuffed in his mouth, his eyes wide open, and his appearance was terrifying.
Linghu Feng sat beside him and said with a smile, "Que Xiu, today is a beautiful day in autumn, so it is a good day to send you on your way. After your soul is gone, I will save you happily!"
"There is also good news for you. That bitch Ying Yue has escaped. But don't worry, I will catch her from any corner of the world. Her fate will be the same as yours!"
With a command, Liumu was stuffed into the furnace, and his heads hit each other, and the sound was heard far away.
Cheng Yuan stepped forward and opened the lid of the purple gold gourd. The blue red lotus karma fire rose up. With his fingertips, the red lotus karma fire flew towards the Nine Transformers of the Universe.
At this moment, a palm wind struck, and the red lotus karma fire was extinguished instantly. Someone walked in slowly. Everyone was shocked when they saw it. Linghu Feng was so frightened that he fell off his chair.
"Home, head of the family?" Cheng Yuan was speechless.
The head of the family glared at Linghu Feng angrily, "My heartbeat was trembling last night and I couldn't calm down for a long time, so I counted on my fingers and learned that something happened, so I hurried out of the seclusion. How could I meet you, a traitor like you, who was using a living person to make elixirs? I wish I could use five thunderbolts to blast him." I'll kill you, you traitor!"
Linghu Feng repeatedly begged for mercy and crawled over on his knees, but was kicked away by the master of the house.
"Back then, you secretly gave me the family transformation pill method in exchange for the soul-casting magic. At that time, I warned you to follow the rules and always keep the right path. Who would have thought that you knowingly committed the same crime and worsened it? It is really abominable! You immediately Go to the ancestral hall and face the wall for three years. If you dare to take a step, your magic power will be destroyed and you will be kicked out of the door!"
Linghu Feng was dragged away. The head of the family was still angry and pointed at everyone present, "You watched the master go astray but did not dissuade him. You colluded with him. It is an unforgivable crime! From today on, all of you will be classified as slaves and you will not be allowed to stop." Let’s practice martial arts again!”
Everyone was trembling and didn't dare to express their anger. At this time, Liumu struggled to open the stove lid, and crawled out from inside with his head covered in blood.
The head of the family looked at him and shook his head, "It's a pity that you are a victim of that evil spell. I can't do anything about it. I can only resign myself to fate and let it die on its own!" After saying this, he walked away.
Liu Mu staggered forward on the mountain road. He was extremely weak. He fell down several times, but he gritted his teeth and got up. Occasionally, passers-by passed by and saw his face covered in blood, and they were afraid to avoid him. He knew he was going to die because his body was slowly losing consciousness. But he was unwilling to give in. He still had many mysteries to solve and many wishes to fulfill.
At this time, a young girl with a beautiful face and graceful figure came forward. She caught a glimpse of Liu Mu and was startled: "There is indeed something strange about the Linghu family. This kind of soul-casting person can actually show off in the sky? When you meet me, your good days have come!"
She stepped forward, her fingers emitting blue light, which easily penetrated Liu Mu's body. Liu Mu first felt a stinging pain, and then his body felt light, as if he was flying into the air. The blue light net wrapped around him tightly, a little oppressive, but felt very warm, and gradually he lost consciousness...
