The years I was in the human world

Chapter 137: The Wind Should Pity the Snow

Peacock turned around and looked at the tragedy that happened under her hands. She suddenly laughed, and tears mixed with blood flowed down her cheeks. She couldn't tell whether it was regret or relief. She laughed and fell to the ground and retched. Her junior master was still partial to her.

Otherwise, given his character, he should have executed her right there, instead of parting ways with her after a bland accusation. Was it really bland? Peacock asked herself in her heart, probably, otherwise why would she feel so empty inside?

The Heavenly Dao is not a deceitful person. Kong Que really separated the remaining soul of Zhu Huang from the people who died unjustly in the city. She did not need to chase the Heavenly Dao or fight in the ghost den for ten years. She got her mother's soul. Such a bargaining chip is enough to make her loyal to the Heavenly Dao.

It also slightly made up for the pain in her heart of breaking off her relationship with Wei Ruge.

"What do you want me to do next?" Peacock cut a hole in his heart and carefully hid Zhu Huang's remaining soul inside, while asking Tiandao for his next instructions.

"Spring comes to everything." The peacock frowned at the instruction of Heaven that cut off the beginning and the end. "Spring comes to everything"? What is that?

Without giving Peacock more time to think, she was teleported thousands of miles away to the Ghost Den by the Heavenly Dao. Looking at the Phoenix Tempering Fire hidden in the deepest part of the Ghost Den, she instantly understood what the Heavenly Dao wanted - He wanted her to take the Phoenix Tempering Fire.

Thousands of evil spirits rushed into her body like dogs smelling blood. In an instant, her internal organs felt as if they were crushed and the pain was so severe that she would rather die than live. Countless harsh voices were shouting "plunder" in her ears.

She had been floating in the ghost den for decades. She didn't know how many times she had been torn to pieces by evil spirits and how many times she had been resurrected by the heaven. The only tolerance given to her by the pair of eyes that had been watching her coldly was that they would not give up on her as long as she didn't give up.

When Peacock came out of the ghost den with the Phoenix Tempering, her body was corroded by the ghost energy and her face was covered with long, blood-red scars, which completely destroyed her beautiful face. She came out in tattered clothes, looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, and felt a little dazed.

There seemed to be lingering pain from being bitten and eroded in her limbs. Unlike the first thirty-five years of training under the care of Wei Ruge, she had been fighting alone in the inner circle of the ghost den for decades. It was a real fight for her life. She died and was reborn, and was reborn and died again. Now that she had achieved her wish, she no longer looked like a human being.

Peacock slowly left Dongshan holding the sword. The emotions in her chest were as calm as a pool of stagnant water. She didn't even know whether she was still alive or just a walking corpse who only knew how to kill.

What happened afterwards is no longer a secret. Kong Que fought her way back to Zhongting, snatched back Lu Zhouxue's worthless skeleton, and made it into a puppet. She went to Wuxiang Peak to pay a visit to Wei Ruge, who had become a steady elder and had accepted a disciple named Lin Ge.

The two disciples met again after decades, but they were like strangers. They were extremely distant from each other. Kong Que finally couldn't stand the silence anymore and stood up to say goodbye. When they were at the door, Wei Ruge gave them some advice: "The laws of nature are unpredictable. You should take care of yourself."

As for Xiao Yueheng, his weakness had nothing to do with Kong Que. When she came to his door, he already looked half-dead.

"I saw you seventy years ago." When Kong Que was leaving the ghost house, a ghost in gauze stopped her with a smile. Gongsun Wuyin looked at her inquiringly and then said, "You were still a yellow-haired girl at that time - do you want to make a deal with me?"

"What deal?" Peacock asked, but she didn't think the other party could give her a satisfactory bargaining chip.

The ghost pursed his lips and smiled, then clung to Peacock like a boneless snake and whispered something in her ear. Peacock's expression suddenly changed, and she turned her head to look at him in astonishment: "Are you serious?"

"If not, what do you think is the purpose of his planning for so many years?" Gongsun Wuyin smiled at her.

"What about you? What do you want to gain by betraying him?" Peacock asked, "He handed the Ghost Palace to you, and this is how you repay him?"

"Girl, you and I both betrayed each other, how could you do it and now come to blame me?" The ghost sneered and admitted her betrayal frankly, "The master cares about me, but he cares more about others. I just want a unique position."

It was unknown what plan the two of them had conspired. Gongsun Wuyin disappeared, and became the weak spot that Peacock used to shackle Xiao Yueheng. Naturally, the Ghost Mansion also became hers.

With the Ghost Mansion as his pawn, Kong Que tricked Yaoguang out of Zhongting in the name of Xiao Yueheng and used the Nine-Directions Killing Formation that he had prepared for Lu Zhouxue on Yaoguang. This woman who had been calling the shots in Zhongting for a hundred years fell for the first time and could never get up again.

Yaoguang was nailed to death on the Phoenix Terrace by Kongque himself. At first, she could still taunt Kongque's expressionless face: "Do you hate me? You have been my dog ​​for so many years, and now you come to seek revenge, it's too late. Yuzhao hates evil, she hates me, and I'm afraid she won't be satisfied with you either."

"Shut up." Peacock coldly nailed a soul-suppressing nail into Yaoguang's wrist. She was sweating from the pain, but she kept cursing viciously: "You are so vindictive, you really don't look like her daughter. Hahahaha, if she saw you like this, she would be so angry that her soul would fly away."

"Yu Zhao, you are so righteous, but what's the use? You will still die without a burial place, and you will become a stepping stone for me. Little girl, I was careless today and fell into your hands, but you don't have to be complacent. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. In this vast world, who will even look at you?"

Yaoguang was a very cultured woman. Even when she was cursing, she never used a single dirty word. However, she was able to poke Peacock's broken heart and make it bleed - a total of eighty-one soul-soothing nails. By the time all of them were nailed in, Yaoguang had already died, and her body had become a pile of broken flesh and blood.

Kong Que put down the tools in her hands and looked at Yao Guang's tragic body with cold eyes. She felt empty in her heart and murmured to herself: "You are not that unattainable..."

Yaoguang died, and the beautiful ghost put on her skin and entered the house, sitting on the high platform and watching the fire from the other side of the river; the body of Ye Yunzhou who fell off the cliff seventy years ago was also found by Peacock, and became another puppet under her command.

As for Master Ling Zhong, Kong Que took a lot of effort to kill him - Lu Zhouxue's body with bones removed fell into her hands, and the divine bones had been melted into the foundation of the Heavenly Pillar, so she replaced them with Xiao Fengzhuo's bones - his body was hidden in the storage ring by Lu Zhouxue before his death.

Later, Lu Zhouxue died, and the ring was obtained by Peacock by chance. Many expensive resources in it were inherited to Peacock along with Xiao Fengzhuo's body. No one knew what considerations she had in putting the two bodies together.

Even the Heavenly Dao had never imagined that the Peacock used the demon bones and the divine body to sew together a corpse demon. This creature was evil, with half ghost energy and half divine light. When it was born, the sky and the earth changed color. Relying on the corpse demon, the Peacock led the spirit bell to the ghost den of Dongshan, and fought for three months, eventually outlasting the old monk to death.

Venerable Mingjing and Master Lingzhong died one after another, Yaoguang was replaced by a beautiful ghost, Baili Changqing and Wei Ruge did not care about the matter, and the heavy pressure on Nanting collapsed in an instant. Relying on his achievements in clearing the ghost house and the Dongshan ghost den, Kongque accepted the position of the chief judge of Nanting.

At the ceremony to announce the news to all parties, facing the inquiring eyes of the Northern Capital Court Inspector, she raised her glass to him and said with a smile: "Judge Bai, I am a new official, and I hope you will take good care of me."

"Who are you?" Beidu Court specializes in slaughter and criminal justice. It is not aware of the grievances of Nan Ting over the past hundred years. The inspector does not recognize Kong Que either. The reason he brought people here today is because Nan Ting changed its leader, and he had to come and meet him.

"The oars' shadows are reflected in the Jiangzhou moon, and the long wind should pity the snow - my Buddhist name is Lianxue." Kong Qing said.

The flashback of the Sad Red Mirror ended here. There was complete silence for a moment. Yaoguang looked at her own fate as shown in the mirror and looked at Peacock with a strong murderous look in her eyes.

Xiao Fengzhuo looked puzzled. He looked at the darkened image on the mirror and spoke softly, for the first time with an uncertain tone, "What exactly does 'Heaven's Way Chooses the Master' mean?"

"According to what Xuan Du said back then, 'Heaven chooses the Master' means he wants to choose someone to sit in His place. Because he wants to abandon lust, he doesn't want Cangwu to go. Now looking at what Heaven does in Kongque's memory, it seems that this is not the case." The speaker was Lu Zhouxue. He answered Xiao Fengzhuo's question casually, but he seemed to have other considerations in his mind.

"Divine bones, demon blood, ghost corpses, spiritual souls, phoenix veins, anyone with one of them can follow the heavenly way. According to this instruction, the one who is oppressing us, could it be that he wants to choose a new god from the human world to replace you and me?" Qinghe has always been sharp, and his words made the other two people's expressions change suddenly.

"The innate gods were born from heaven and earth, and they never came from the human world. How can we treat the replacement of gods as a joke?" Lu Zhouxue frowned, not quite agreeing with Qinghe's guess.

"Why not?" Qinghe sneered, "Taihuang is just an innate god, a colleague of you and me. A hundred years ago, he could still control your life and death, but the way of heaven is really weighing on you and me. It's not easy to 'change the dynasty', right?"

"I still have to ask Xiao Yueheng. Let's wait for Ah Xue to come down first. 'Heavenly Dao chooses the master' is related to him after all." Xiao Fengzhuo signaled Qinghe to stay calm, then turned his head and glanced at the monks who were kneeling on the ground under the pressure, and asked, "How do we deal with these people?"

The affairs of the divine world cannot be told to mortals, not even to cultivators. Moreover, these people have just followed the Red Mirror's flashback to see part of future events, which may cause twists and turns in the original development of events. We really cannot ignore it.

As soon as Xiao Fengzhuo said this, all the cultivators kneeling on the ground held their breath and focused, secretly paying attention to the conversation between the three people. They saw Qinghe unfold the scroll of laws in his hand again. It was a magical instrument. All living beings below the God Realm could find their past on it. It was similar to the Sad Red Mirror.

"You all really have committed many evil deeds, and it is not a pity that you die." Qinghe compared each person's appearance and looked at their experiences one by one. Finally, he sneered and said to Xiao Fengzhuo, "There is no need to worry about how to deal with their memories. All of them are unforgivable and should be executed."

"Then just kill them directly?" Xiao Fengzhuo said nonchalantly, and playfully drew out the scimitar from his waist and approached the monks. He scanned the faces of the monks, playing with the scimitar and said nonchalantly, "Who should start first?"

At once everyone started to get agitated and tried to break free from their restraints. Peacock was relatively calm, and only said to Tian Dao in the Spiritual Sea: "You didn't tell me that these two were gods under your command. Now that they are up to no good, how do you want me to deal with them?"

"The reincarnation mirror they are using is now at its last gasp and cannot shake your future. If you delay a little longer, everyone will return to their places." Tiandao answered slowly.

"Now that the man surnamed Xiao wants to kill me, how do you want me to delay?" Peacock stared at Xiao Fengzhuo who was walking towards her. The latter's eyes were extremely cold and filled with strong hatred. Peacock was stunned when she saw this. He hated her, why?

"Wei Ruge said something right, karma goes round and round, retribution will come. You are indeed paranoid." Xiao Fengzhuo squatted down in front of Kong Que, looked her in the eyes, and said coldly, "He treats you well."

They both knew who this "he" was.

"So what? If he hadn't taken my mother's life, why would I have worked so hard for so many years?" Peacock asked back. If at the beginning, she might have still felt a little guilty towards Lu Zhouxue, but after crawling out of the ghost den, she became completely heartless and neither human nor ghost.

"Ha." Xiao Fengzhuo laughed. He raised his eyebrows and talked to Lu Zhouxue behind him without turning his head. His eyes were still fixed on Kong Que. He said, "Mianmian, it seems that we are really good at raising ungrateful people."

Qi Nankuo, who was scolded by his words, turned pale instantly. After all, he and Kong Que were really the same.

"You don't have to ridicule me. You and I have only known each other for more than two months, which is no different from us being strangers. Don't act like you are indebted to me. I don't owe you anything." Peacock had forgotten too many things, including the friendship that he cherished in the past.

"What a debt you owe him." Xiao Fengzhuo snorted coldly, counting the old debts to Kong Que with a gloomy face, "Four seasons of clothing, countless natural treasures, and the future he worked hard to plan for you, which one of these did you not receive from him?"

"Even if his favor is not as great as a mountain, since you have been under his protection, you should never say something like 'we've never met before'." Xiao Fengzhuo was heartbroken when he saw Lu Zhouxue's death with the Sad Red Mirror on Mount Buzhou. At this moment, he naturally hated it when he heard Kong Que say "I never owe you anything".

But before he could cut Peacock's throat with a knife, accompanied by the sound of the Samsara Mirror completely shattering, the entire space suddenly twisted and collapsed. All the images went dark, and finally froze into the room where Lu Zhouxue and Xiao Fengzhuo were before they were pulled back to the past by the Samsara Mirror.
