Po Meng knew that the situation was critical, so she did not lose her position. She forced her movements and suddenly sprayed out a mouthful of blood mist. Wherever it touched, the red light disappeared and the formation dispersed.
"Be careful, the blood is poisonous!" Before the Heavenly Saint finished speaking, Meng Po jumped up and spit out black air from her palm, hitting the Earthly Saint and the Demonic Saint. The two were covered in blood and suffered severe injuries.
Po Meng's heart was also exposed, and she was hit by Tiansheng's staff, and her body fell into the lake like a paper kite. Tiansheng shouted: "She was seriously injured and cannot escape. She is still in the house. Everyone, search her quickly."
Po Meng hid in the corner, weeping blood from time to time. This is an empty room in the side yard, where servants store washing utensils. She is familiar with it in the house and has been here before.
There were people shouting in the distance and they would be here soon, but she was seriously injured and worried. At this time, there was the sound of footsteps, and a young man strode over. Judging by his clothes, he was clearly a guard from the Lanshi Camp.
Meng Po raised her energy and prepared to give him a fatal blow. The man pushed open the door and entered, as slippery as a loach. He avoided Po Meng's attack and whispered: "The leader is one of our own!"
Po Meng was so angry that she almost fell down. The man quickly supported her and said, "I am Chibi, and I am here to rescue the leader from trouble."
"How did you find me?" Mrs. Meng still had doubts.
"My subordinate is proficient in the art of voodoo. When you set out, I secretly placed voodoo insects on your clothes. I didn't expect them to come in handy."
Po Meng still wanted to ask more carefully, but there were noisy footsteps outside and the pursuers had arrived.
"Leader, let me pretend to be you and distract the enemy. Can you find a place to hide temporarily?"
Po Meng gasped: "I can use my remaining skills to get through the underworld and hide, but the time is short."
At this time, the courtyard door was kicked open. Chibi turned into Po Meng, broke out of the window, and fought with her.
After a while, Po Meng walked lamely, crying blood all the way. This is a long tunnel made of bluestone. It is old and covered with moss. Every step is slippery and it is very difficult to walk.
After exiting the tunnel, a waterfall hangs in front of the river, and the roar of the water is endless. At this time, a sigh came from behind, and Po Meng trembled all over, feeling sad and happy at the same time.
"As expected, you escaped here. I remember that we often sneaked out of the house through this tunnel to enjoy a free and happy time."
"Shut up!" Po Meng spat, "Don't bring up the past with me. I'm seriously injured today. I'll kill or cut you up as you please!"
The Holy Master smiled bitterly, "I came here alone, not to kill you, but to help you."
"I said that our friendship is over and we will have no further relationship, let alone accept your charity."
"Yugian, can't we put aside our grudges and restore peace to everything?"
"Never!" Meng Po gritted her teeth, then flew down the waterfall...
When Po Meng woke up, she was lying in a wooden house with only four empty walls and was very simple. She wanted to sit up, but her whole body ached and her bones felt like they were falling apart.
Teng Tu held her shoulders, and she wanted to push him away, but she didn't have any strength. The Holy Lord said softly: "Do you remember? This beekeeper's abandoned hut was once our sweet love nest."
He brought a bowl of thick soup, which was full of aroma. Po Meng wanted to refuse, but she was infected by the warm smell and burst into tears.
Tentu fed her one bite after another with a happy expression. Po Meng sighed, "I really hope there is a kind of soup that can make you forget everything after drinking it, let the grudges and hatreds go away with the wind, and start over."
Teng Tu comforted her, "Don't be willful anymore. Take a good rest and you will regain your strength. I will hunt some game to replenish your health."
When the Holy Lord returns, the house is empty and no one is around...
When Meng Po went back, she first counted the congregation. Those who participated in the action were either dead or injured, and all suffered losses. She searched the crowd, but saw no sign of Chibi, and was heartbroken, "It's a pity that such a rare and brave man lost his life to save me!"
Lan Xie asked, and she recounted what happened. Everyone shook their heads and expressed deep regret.
At this time, there was a chuckle from outside, "My subordinate has returned a long time ago. He took some time to take a nap, but it made the leader worried. What a sin." Chibi walked in through the curtain, unscathed.
Po Meng was overjoyed, praised him, and returned to the subject, "This failure was all due to my own pride and underestimation of the enemy. I am incompetent. I should resign as the leader and give an explanation to the followers."
Chibi was the first to speak, "What the leader said was wrong! What is failure? You fought against the four masters of the Wu clan, one against four, seriously injuring two enemies, and retreated calmly. You were so powerful that the people everywhere called you a god. Our sect's status is at its peak. .How can you retreat?"
Everyone echoed, thinking that this newcomer was so sharp-tongued that he stole the limelight.
"But at the end of the day, the congregation has suffered a huge loss this time, and I feel uneasy."
"All the heroes admire your power and will definitely defect to you. Our religion will dominate the Miao territory soon!"
Blue Scorpion thought to himself: "This guy talks about pearls and flatters horses, so be careful."
Chibi continued: "The reason for your setback this time is that you don't have a weapon. I happen to have a thousand-year-old blood vine, which I would like to dedicate to the leader and carve into a weapon to help you dominate the world."
Po Meng was delighted, she naturally knew what the blood vine was. It was born on the top of the peak, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. It turns green in ten years, black in a hundred years, and becomes blood red in a thousand years. It is as hard as iron and good at transformation. It is the best choice for wizard's staff.
One month later, the staff was completed. The head of the staff was carved with the king of birds spreading its wings and flying, lifelike, and it was called the Phoenix Staff. Po Meng held it in her hand and liked it very much.
Lan Xie said on the side: "Chibi is an outsider, you must be careful about him!"
Po Meng was stunned and asked with her eyes. Lan Xie continued: "He is a man from Sichuan, but he knows the art of voodoo. He saved you from danger last time and came back unharmed. Furthermore, how could he have the most precious treasure of Miao territory, the thousand-year-old blood vine? There are so many doubts about it. You can’t turn a deaf ear!”
"You mean he's a spy?"
"This cannot be determined yet! Maybe he has ulterior motives and plans."
Po Meng gently stroked the phoenix staff, her eyes were long and deep in thought...
As the Miao New Year approaches, Phoenix City returns to its former glory. There are rumors in the market that Po Meng was severely injured in the last battle, and the strength of the Five Poison Sect was severely damaged. The members of the cult were dissatisfied, and there were several internal strife, and they no longer had time to take care of the Phoenix City.
This is undoubtedly good news for the people. After dinner, they talked about it and thanked God for opening their eyes and allowing this evil witch to learn a lesson. The world was peaceful and prosperous.
The Holy Abyss in the north of the city is the resting place of the Gu kings of the past dynasties. A lake is surrounded by green bamboos. The cemetery on the island has been renovated, a tall altar has been erected, and it is heavily guarded. It is the most sacred place.
The King of Gu is old, so the ancestor worship ceremony naturally falls on the shoulders of the princess. On that day, the queen took a bath and purified herself, put on her festive attire, and looked as graceful and luxurious as a heavenly being.
From the Royal City to the Holy Abyss, there is a ten-mile long street where people are singing and dancing, and the crowds are surging. When the queen arrived, everyone paid homage and cheers filled the sky.
Teng Tu rode a horse and accompanied the queen's elephant. Seeing this scene, he sighed in his heart, "Yun Xiang has succeeded to the throne for less than a year. He has implemented benevolent policies, reduced taxes, and negotiated peace with the Wu clan. He has won the hearts of the people and is a blessing to the world!"
The entrance to the Holy Abyss, this is a holy place, and the people can only watch from a distance. The Queen roared loudly and bowed her head to the ground. The noise everywhere stopped. Everyone watched as the Queen came down, joined hands with the Holy Lord, and walked onto the small bridge decorated with floral prints, which extended to the island.
The small lake is calm and the couple is strolling. Yun Xiang's hands trembled slightly, "Husband, for some reason, I always have a bad premonition, as if something is going to happen?"
The Holy Lord knew what her words meant and couldn't help but hold her hand tightly, "Don't worry, everything is fine, my husband will always be with you."
Arriving in front of the altar, surrounded by guards on three levels inside and three outside, Yun Xiang let out a sigh of relief. Among the green bamboos, the altar is three feet high, decorated with garlands, paved with petals, and filled with the fragrance of flowers.
The two of them stepped onto the altar hand in hand. The white jade statue of the first Gu King was one foot tall and placed in the center. Sandalwood curled up and smoke filled the altar. The tablets of the previous Gu Kings disappeared and appeared in it.
Drums played from all directions, the queen burned incense and knelt down respectfully, while Teng Tu watched the ceremony in the corner without taking his eyes away for a moment.
Yun Xiang suddenly felt something strange. She raised her hand and fired out several bamboo leaf darts. The white jade statue rippled and swallowed up all the darts. Then, there was a chuckle.
"I didn't expect that I would become a god and a Buddha, and be worshiped by the Queen." Before he finished speaking, the statue flew away like smoke and dust and transformed into Po Meng's body.
The Holy Lord saw something bad and flew forward to protect his beloved wife. "You are so audacious! We are all here. With this order, you will never escape. If you have the sense, retreat immediately."
Po Meng smiled and said nothing. Yun Xiang sighed, "I don't know when I walked into her witchcraft fantasy. This place is dangerous. Don't worry about me. Husband, please retreat first."
Teng Tu did not flinch, but held her hand tightly and confronted Po Meng.
"The love between husband and wife is really deep and touching. It's just that if you want to escape from my enchantment space, it will be difficult to reach the sky."
She stared at Yun Xiang with her malicious eyes, "You set a trap to kill me? Can't I? Your helpers from the Witch Clan are not here, how can you escape this disaster?"
She waved the phoenix staff lightly in her hand, and the surrounding scenery dispersed like smoke. The three of them were in a huge transparent cover, suspended above the holy abyss. The crowds and scenery below as well as the ripples of the lake seemed to be frozen and remained motionless.
"Your subjects watched their beloved queen being killed by me. Their hearts were full of fear and despair, but they were powerless. Thinking about it makes me excited!" Her eyes were cruel and malicious, and the phoenix staff emitted a strange light.
"My wife and I are ashamed of you! But the great mission of unifying the Miao territory and benefiting the people has not yet been completed, so Yun Xiang cannot die. Please put the life of the common people first, let her go, and be willing to die for her!"
"Did you know you begged me? It's a pity it's too late, she will die in front of your eyes today!"
Teng Tu was so angry that he jumped up and drew out his Gu swords. Po Meng waved her sleeves, and all the black Gu insects fell to the ground. Several black vines sprouted from the phoenix staff in her hand, binding the vines.
"Your voodoo skills are like child's play in my eyes. Don't watch them again. You are just an audience in this scene."
Yun Xiang also calmed down. It seemed hard to let go of what happened today. She raised her palm and released a burst of black energy, which was very similar to Po Meng's technique. Po Meng also greeted each other with her palms, and the two palms were entangled together, forming a dark space.
Po Meng smiled and said, "The Queen of the Gu tribe knows witchcraft. She really didn't bring it upon herself. I will use your magic to send you back to the west today!"
She forced Yun Xiang back with the power of her palm. The black energy of the phoenix staff in her hand turned into a sharp sword and pierced Yun Xiang's chest...
