Elder Mrs. ng was flung backwards, and Qin Liuxi turned her gaze to the man who suddenly appeared before her. He wore a white robe embroidered with totems, his hair braided and bound behind his head with a headband. On his hands were two ancient totem bracelets, identical to the tattoos on Elder Mrs. ng’s hand.
They’re a family!
But judging by his righteous deanor, he didn’t seem to be an ally, right?
Qin Liuxi remained motionless, yet didn’t lower her guard.
Protective people are everywhere. She was protective, so were others. The scene before her seed like soone cleaning out their own sect, but that was a family matter, and no one likes outsiders ddling in their family affairs.
When uncertain about the situation, it’s better to watch coldly from the sidelines.
Elder Mrs. ng looked at this man in astonishnt, her deeply furrowed mouth murmuring, "Master."
Qin Liuxi: "?"
Master?
This old woman looked to be seventy or eighty, yet this man appeared only around forty or fifty, and he was her master. Had she taken so Anti-Aging Pill?
"Don’t call Master. When you betrayed our sect for that ng Song, you were no longer a disciple of our Miao Witch Clan, nor my disciple, ng Lu’s, especially after you stole the Miao Witch Treasure, you beca an enemy of our clan!"
Qin Liuxi silently pulled out so sunflower seeds.
Elder Mrs. ng beca enraged, coughing up blood and laughing eerily, "If Master hadn’t been unwilling to save my husband, Shu Po wouldn’t have taken the Miao Witch Treasure. Master, you forced ."
"Even now, you refuse to repent!" ng Lu lashed her with a chain, causing her to scream in pain.
The chain was of unknown material; when it whipped the body, Qin Liuxi noticed unfamiliar runes and totems glowing.
ng Lu said angrily, "The dead cannot co back to life. You attempted to defy the heavens and change fate by resurrecting him, which the heavens would not allow. How can our Miao Witch Clan gamble the fate of our people against the heavens? But you were stubborn and stole the treasure, turning him into a Corpse Stiff, harming many innocent people."
"Since you knew this, why didn’t you cleanse the sect earlier? Now that so many have died, you speak up—doesn’t that seem a bit late?" Qin Liuxi chid in aloofly.
ng Lu’s face flushed unexpectedly at these words and he said, "She evaded our Miao Witch searches, cut away flesh and bone, and feigned death at the cost of shortening her life, severing all ties. It was only through the Great Witch’s divination of a Heavenly Secret that we learned she was still alive. But she has walked the Witch Demon Path, becoming half-human, half-ghost."
Qin Liuxi glanced at Elder Mrs. ng, whose hair was coming loose and expression growing more sinister, "Then hurry up and purge the sect, swiftly put her down!"
ng Lu’s lips twitched, "Who are you?"
Qin Liuxi swung the Vajra Ruler onto Governor ng’s back as he tried sothing against Qin Mingchun’s Barrier, leaving a wound so deep it reached the bone, causing him to howl in agony.
"Who am I? I’m this kid’s older sister, by blood. But the ng family abducted my foolish brother to use him as nourishnt for that dead zombie, so I burned that zombie to ashes, killed it beyond dead, its ashes scattered who knows where!" Qin Liuxi said, "If you’re going to stand up for this old woman, then I’ll be your enemy."
Co on, let’s have a fight. Let’s see if your chains are more effective or my Vajra Ruler!
ng Lu saw her eager-for-battle stance and his eyebrow twitched, feeling speechless. How could the cultivators of the secular world be so unreliable?
Yet Elder Mrs. ng heard her husband who was near resurrection had been turned to ash scattered everywhere, and instantly bristled, her white hair standing on end as she scread viciously, "Ah, I’ll kill you!"
She let out a long howl at the sky, spreading her arms, rapidly chanting Witchcraft, stirring up a fierce gale around them.
"Be careful, she’s trying to let the Witch Demon possess her."
"What’s the use of saying that, hit her." Qin Liuxi touched her toes to the ground, brandishing the Vajra Ruler, and as Elder Mrs. ng erupted, struck her mouth with the ruler, producing two crisp slaps.
The Witchcraft was abruptly cut off, turning Elder Mrs. ng’s mouth into a swollen sausage.
She sneered, striking her own heart, spat out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed softy to the ground, her eyes glaring wide.
"Losing and committing suicide?"
But ng Lu saw the totem on her hand glowing and said, "Not good, she intends to offer her soul to the Witch Demon."
As he said this, he removed the silver bracelet from his hand, urgently chanting Witchcraft, and the silver bracelet’s totem appeared in the air, flashing once, suppressing the totem on Elder Mrs. ng’s hand. The silver bracelet transford into a silver snake, winding around Elder Mrs. ng, its head poised atop her, waiting.
Qin Liuxi raised an eyebrow, looking sowhat impressed.
The Witchcraft echoed like a bell, buzzing so that its words were unclear.
However, Elder Mrs. ng’s hatred fueled her resentful energy, accelerating the burning of her soul. In the end, as her soul rushed from her spiritual platform to disperse into the sky, the silver snake swallowed it in one gulp.
Qin Liuxi: "..."
This silver snake was more formidable than the previous crimson Yin Snake.
The silver snake seed to sense Qin Liuxi’s praise, its vertical pupils glancing at her arrogantly, twisting into a twisted shape in the air, then returning to ng Lu’s hand, becoming a silver bracelet.
In mid-air, however, there seed to echo a dissatisfied roar. The overcast wind swept toward ng Lu, turning his face pale as Witchcraft continued to pour from his mouth, his hands weaving totemic runes in attack.
Qin Liuxi looked at the air, eyes growing cold, touched her toes to the ground, swinging the Vajra Ruler, chanting the Nine Star Divine Spell, golden light shattered the clouds.
With the sudden burst of golden light and the appearance of the Vajra Scripture, the presence emitting its unwillingness imdiately ran cowardly.
The winds cald.
ng Lu’s lips were tinged with fresh blood, surprised as he looked at the still-hovering Qin Liuxi, rich rit Golden Light emanating from her, appearing bathed in the golden glow.
This was the person of whom the Great Witch spoke; she could save all living things under heaven—his Miao Witch Clan should follow her!
ng Lu stood up, just starting to speak: "Master..."
But as he just began, he saw Qin Liuxi twitching in mid-air as though weakened, her leg in a strange twisted position as she fell from the sky.
ng Lu was shocked. Was this a backlash?
Qin Liuxi looked down, exclaiming, "Daoist friend, catch quickly."
ng Lu dared not catch her, so he could only chant Witchcraft, using the silver snake to scoop her up and set her gently on the ground, stepping forward to ask, "What happened to you?"
"It’s nothing. Previously, I suffered heavenly retribution and was punished. I’ve been temporarily using a Cultivation Technique to function normally. Now that the technique has dissipated." Qin Liuxi explained, snapping her leg back into place with a crack.
ng Lu watched her expression remain unchanged, his mouth twitching: "..."
This was a tough person!
Though unaware of Qin Liuxi’s internal agony and curse at the heavens, she had only borrowed a bit of luck, did it have to escalate?
She stood up, limping towards ng Lu, saying, "I am the temple master of Li City Qingping Temple, Daoist na is Buqiu. How should I address you, Daoist friend?"
