Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 375: North Sea (Part 375)
"call--"

After watching the entire Wang family being eaten alive, Lin Beixuan felt a little uncomfortable, but he quickly suppressed it by letting out a long sigh.

"Cause and effect, retribution in this world!"

"This world is always fair. If you owe a debt, you must repay it, whether you are alive or dead."

Ge Hong didn't take this scene too seriously and looked at Lin Beixuan dimly.

“If what you said was said in the past, it might have been possible, but now the underworld has been closed. Even if a wicked person dies, he will just become a ghost wandering in the world, and he will not be punished.

If you’re lucky, you can even live a second life as a ghost, hahahaha…”

When he said this, Ge Hong laughed out loud, and it was not difficult to hear the sarcasm in his words.

"So the reason you want to die is that you want to live a second life through your ghost body?"

Lin Beixuan looked over, and the biting cold almost froze the air around Ge Hong.

Ge Hong noticed the strong murderous intent in Lin Beixuan's eyes, and the goatee on his chin trembled.

"I know everything I need to know. If you want to die now, I can help you do so!"

Lin Beixuan looked into Ge Hong's eyes, his tone serious and earnest.

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be joking, Ge Hong smiled bitterly. He seemed to have been drained of strength, and also seemed to be relieved.

"bring it on!"

Ge Hong slowly closed his eyes and waited for Lin Beixuan to take action.

"Om..."

Then one could hear the sound of a blade cutting through the air. The cold and sharp breath was like snow falling in winter, chilling and overwhelming.

Ge Hong was already prepared, and said calmly: "I have done good things in my life, and I have also made big mistakes. Regardless of whether there are hidden reasons for the current situation in Luozhou, I should bear half of the responsibility."

"This karma should be borne by me alone, and has nothing to do with the person who killed me."

"Please ask the gods of heaven and earth to bear witness, the founder of the Dao lineage to bear witness, the ancestor of the human emperor to bear witness... Ge Hong is here to bear witness."

“Please die!!”

When saying the last two words, Ge Hong's voice was firm and decisive, and his words seemed to carry some mysterious frequency, vibrating with certain rules between heaven and earth.

He believed that he should have died long ago, so he had no fear when facing death. In order to prevent Lin Beixuan from being implicated in the cause and effect of Luozhou because of killing him, he even used mantras to tell the heaven and earth.

"Do you really want to die that much?"

Lin Beixuan's words floated into Ge Hong's ears.

Ge Hong smiled when he heard this: "My sinful body should have died long ago!"

"Okay, then I'll make it happen for you."

After saying this, Lin Beixuan drew a semicircle with the scarlet sickle in his indifferent hand and passed in front of Ge Hong's neck.

In an instant, Ge Hong's head was separated from his neck and thrown high into the air.

"You actually killed him!" Mrs. Bai's words suddenly rang out at this moment.

While Ge Hong was recounting his experiences, Mrs. Bai and Liu Fei woke up at some point and came to the gate of the Wang family mansion.

Lin Beixuan seemed to have discovered the two people a long time ago. He did not have any worry or fear after killing people. He swung the giant sickle calmly and cleaned the bloodstains on it.

"Since you wanted to kill us, why did you try to stop us?"

Mrs. Bai is still confused by Lin Beixuan's sudden attack on them.

Even though she already knew the gap in strength between herself and Lin Beixuan, she still couldn't help but ask.

"What on earth are you doing this for?"

"It's not your place to comment on what I do. I can kill whenever I want. It's none of your business."

"You..." Mrs. Bai was choked by these words, and the expression on her old face became uncertain.

Lin Beixuan glanced at Mrs. Bai, but his gaze did not linger on her for too long. Instead, he looked at Liu Fei.

"Why are you here?"

Liu Fei looked at Lin Beixuan. She was very curious as to why he held back when he clearly had the ability to kill them.

However, the Qiang God mask on Lin Beixuan's face and the blood-stained robe on his body basically blocked out most of his aura. Unless Liu Fei reached the realm of Xi Shen, she would not be able to recognize that the person standing in front of her was actually her college classmate.

Liu Fei took a deep breath, glanced at Madam Bai, and responded to Lin Beixuan's words: "We are here for the same thing."

"Huh? What?"

Lin Beixuan retracted the Shadow-Splitting Scythe, picked up Ge Hong's head that had fallen to the ground, brushed off the dust on it, and then pressed it back on the other's broken neck.

After finishing the job, he still murmured softly: "Even if you die, I'll still leave you with an intact body."

As he spoke, a ray of mysterious yellow light flashed on Lin Beixuan's palm, and Ge Hong's body was taken into the mysterious yellow realm by him.

Although Ge Hong was once a human immortal, even a human immortal would die if his head was cut off, so Ge Hong was really dead.

Moreover, in Lin Beixuan's panel prompt, he also received the reward he received after killing Ge Hong.

A full 100,000 Suibi coins, which was higher than when he killed the God of Death. I don’t know if it was because Ge Hong was too deeply involved in the cause and effect.

Lin Beixuan did not feel too upset about killing Ge Hong, nor did he feel any regret.

In his opinion, no matter what the other party's intentions were, he was one of the culprits who caused Luozhou's current situation. He was carrying the will of the entire Beiming Army, even though he was not a Luozhou native, and could not even be considered a secular person.

But whenever he calmed down and looked at the wisp of incense and wishes of the Bei Ming Army in his own temple and the families of the Bei Ming Army hiding in Sheshan, he couldn't help but immerse himself in the suffering they had experienced.

Although he is not a god, he can still do something for his believers.

However, although Ge Hong's body is dead, his soul is still there, so Lin Beixuan is not worried that he will not be able to find him if he has any problems.

This is also the reason why he killed Ge Hong so quickly and efficiently.

If the other person wants to die, then help him/her. After he/she dies, he/she will be easier to control.

Lin Beixuan was thinking while doing such a horrifying thing as picking up Ge Hong's head, and he didn't notice the gradually fearful looks of Mrs. Bai and Liu Fei beside him.

So when Lin Beixuan directly asked them what they were looking for, a not very polite question, Liu Fei and Mrs. Bai were reluctant to answer, but when they saw Lin Beixuan's actions, they hesitated again.

"Why not tell him?"

Liu Fei whispered beside Madam Bai: "With his means and abilities, I'm afraid that even if we are secular princes and can be resurrected, there are ways to imprison our souls like those secular gods." Madam Bai pondered for a while and nodded: "This man in front of me is too weird. Judging from the mask on his face, I suspect he may be a secular god from the border of Li Dynasty, in the Miaojiang Yelang country in the Shiwan Mountains.

The methods used by that place are even more bizarre and terrifying than those used by the secular gods in previous dynasties, making people's life worse than death.

He didn't kill us just now, which means he is not an evil god. If we negotiate properly, he may not fight for what we want."

Mrs. Bai's analysis of the problem was so logical and well-founded that Liu Fei was stunned.

But she was stunned not because there was anything wrong with what Mrs. Bai said.

"Miaojiang is thousands of miles away from Lichao, and aren't the secular gods of the two countries in a hostile relationship? I heard that when Lichao was founded, the secular gods of both sides fought a big battle because of something, and more than a dozen secular gods died before they finally gave up." Liu Fei said in a daze.

"Oh, with the national strength of the present dynasty, even those foreigners from the Nanyang faction dare to seize the opportunity to occupy Jiangzhou and Minzhou, so why wouldn't those secular gods of Yelang dare to appear?"

"Besides, this is Luozhou. With Luozhou in this state, those secular gods who built temples in Luozhou can hardly protect themselves, so how can they have the time to care about the secular gods from Yelang coming in." Mrs. Bai said helplessly.

"That's true." Liu Fei thought for a moment, "Then should I tell him our purpose?"

"Well, go ahead!" Mrs. Bai nodded, and walked over to a dry old tree with a cane and sat down.

"Have you discussed it?"

Lin Beixuan drew the formation pattern on the ground and occasionally looked up at Liu Fei.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say it."

Liu Fei looked a little hesitant, and after thinking for a while, he said, "We came to Luozhou this time because we got a message from our family that there is a ground vein heart in a dilapidated village in the heart of Luozhou."

"The heart of the earth vein?" Lin Beixuan paused when he heard this and looked at Liu Fei in surprise.

"The energy of Luozhou's earth veins has dissipated, so how can there still be a heart?"

When hearing these words, Lin Beixuan's first reaction was to think of his own Earth-shaking Heart.

However, he obtained the Heart of the Earth from Lu Chenjiang's remains, and it should have nothing to do with Luozhou.

Liu Fei said: "There is not much connection between the earth vein heart and the earth vein energy. The so-called earth vein heart is actually a special crystal that grows on the earth vein like a person. Because it has been nourished by the earth vein energy for a long time, it has certain special abilities."

"We thought that since the earth vein energy in Luozhou has dissipated, it means that this place is no longer suitable for human habitation. It would be a waste to leave the earth vein heart there, so we might as well take it away."

"What do you use it for?" Lin Beixuan asked.

Liu Fei glanced at Mrs. Bai, and when their eyes met, she understood what the other meant.

"Sorry, I can't tell you about this."

Lin Beixuan glanced at Mrs. Bai and sneered.

"The Heart of the Earth Veins, since it is the heart of Luozhou, why do you say it seems to be useless?"

"From one vein, all things arise."

"When the earth vein energy flows, it can bring sufficient nutrients to the earth, improve the weather, and allow flowers, plants and trees to grow better, thus making life flourish... This is also the reason why plants will quickly wither and the climate will collapse after the earth vein energy in Luozhou dissipates."

"As the heart of this land vein, the Earth Vein Heart has the function of regulating the flow of Earth Vein Qi, which is of great significance to the future recovery of Luozhou."

"Do you really think I'm a fool? Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

Lin Beixuan smiled and glanced at the two of them. Although he had no animosity towards Liu Fei and the others, he planned to make Luozhou his home in the future, so how could he let the other party take the Heart of the Earth Veins.

It would be fine if he didn't know, but it just so happened that before he came, he had read a lot of ancient books and classics in detail.

One of the natural history books recorded the function of the heart of the earth veins.

Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, these things may just be some illusory biographical stories.

Because the person who wrote this book was not a university scholar, but just a peddler who traveled around.

However, Lin Beixuan was very interested in this ancient book called Bowuzhi. He often read it and learned a lot about the folk customs of the world.

Seeing Madam Bai and Liu Fei mention the heart of the earth veins, he immediately recalled the conjectures about the heart of the earth veins recorded in the Natural History.

But after he said this, Liu Fei did not show any shock on her face.

"Sir, since you know the purpose of the Earth Vein Heart, you should also know that the Earth Vein Qi in Luozhou has dissipated, and the effect of the Earth Vein Heart on Luozhou is minimal. There is no Earth Vein Qi to regulate it.

Rather than letting the spiritual energy nurtured by the Earth's Heart slowly deplete, it would be better for us to take it away and we will keep it at home and take good care of it."

"Haha...this is truly the logic of a robber!" Lin Beixuan sneered.

"Do you know how the people of Luozhou will live in the future if you do this?"

Mrs. Bai frowned and stood up to refute: "Luozhou has become a dead place, so what about the future?"

"I think you saw that hungry ghost when you entered this village. He has become so powerful now that even the imperial court can only let him do what he wants. Do you think Luozhou can recover?"

"How do you know if you don't try?" Lin Beixuan drew the formation pattern and stood up on his knees.

Seeing Lin Beixuan's firm words, Madam Bai looked a little strange and asked, "Aren't you a secular god from the Miao border in the Shiwan Mountains?"

"Haha..." Lin Beixuan laughed out loud, glanced at the black cloud condensed by evil thoughts above the dilapidated village, then turned his head, with two flames burning in his eyes, one black and one gold.

"Who told you that I was from Miaojiang? Who told you that I was... a god?"

At this moment, the formation pattern drawn under Lin Beixuan's feet suddenly burst out with a faint blue light, and a thick evil aura emerged from the ground. At the same time, a huge door shadow gradually emerged behind him.

"Crackle, crackle... clang, clang..."

The heavy metal city gate let out a shrill scream, and the sound of chains colliding seemed to come from the abyss of hell. A heart-pounding atmosphere instantly enveloped the surroundings.

When Mrs. Bai saw this scene, her eyes widened unconsciously and her pupils suddenly contracted.

She didn't understand what Lin Beixuan was planning to do, but the aura emanating from the other party at this moment was many times stronger than when he fought against her and Liu Fei just now.

"Break the soul!" Lin Beixuan's voice was as calm as water under the mask. The tightly closed metal city gate slowly opened with a scream, and teams of black-armored ghost soldiers, ready to go, walked out surrounded by a thick evil aura.

And at the feet of this group of ghost soldiers, there were ghost dogs with strong yin energy.

"Hey hey hey hey..."

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly sounded, and when the dark fog spread to Lin Beixuan's side, a chubby baby ghost with thick black hair about four or five years old appeared on Lin Beixuan's shoulder.

The baby ghost had a naked upper body, and wore a pair of wide-legged coarse black trousers on the lower body. There were circles of black chains wrapped around its waist, and at the same time, the extra chains extended to a pair of huge scissors that were carried on the baby ghost's back.

When Mrs. Bai saw this scene, she couldn't help but gasp and said with a look of horror.

"The Underworld!"
