Time Travel and Love

After hearing Chu Qingmeng's words, the men present suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and they even felt a dull pain in certain parts of their bodies. Ling Xiao silently covered a certain part of his body with his hand. Mo Liuyuan and the two brothers of the Mu family felt as if they were poured with a bucket of cold water, and their eyes became clear.

Chu Qingmeng didn't notice the changes around him at all and sat back in his chair and continued, "I don't want to say more, so let me introduce you to one I like. This is called the Punishment of the Snake Basin. Do you know how to write the word 虿盆 (癿盆)? It has a "wan" on top and a "chong" on the bottom. As the name suggests, I will throw you into a cave of thousands of insects to suffer the pain of being bitten by thousands of insects. There are all five kinds of poisonous insects in there. You won't die immediately after entering. The larger poisonous insects will bite your flesh, and the smaller ones will drill into your ears, eyes, and nose to bite you. I'll put you in there for an hour every day, and when you recover the next day, I'll throw you in again. When I get tired of playing with you, I'll remove your flesh and make a beautiful skeleton and put it in my study. Hmm~ I can appreciate my work every day, just thinking about it makes me happy."

"Alright, Feiying, let's get started. Start with his hands and crush every inch of them." Chu Qingmeng didn't miss the suppressed fear in his eyes and decided to add fuel to the fire. He then continued to laugh sinisterly twice, "Wait! Before that, let me serve you some appetizers. Ahem."

Chu Qingmeng covered her mouth with a handkerchief while coughing, stuffed a small ball into her mouth and gently bit it into pieces. She smiled as Leng Shi opened his mouth. A centipede slowly crawled out of Chu Qingmeng's mouth. The men standing by took a step back in fear. The centipede was lying on Chu Qingmeng's right cheek, shaking its two tentacles. Chu Qingmeng was smiling all the time, but Leng Shi felt that she was a demon crawling out of hell. Chu Qingmeng stood up and walked to Leng Shi, gently took the centipede from her face, and put it into Leng Shi's mouth. Leng Shi only felt that the centipede's legs were crawling in his mouth. He roared in fear, "I said! I said! I hid her in the cellar in the backyard of Yuelai Inn!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingmeng waved his hand and asked Feiying Lenglie to take people to rescue Mu Lingxue. Then he asked calmly, "Why did you kidnap her? Who do you belong to?"

Leng Shi fell silent again. Chu Qingmeng sneered and took out a small black snake from his sleeve. He said as he took it out, "I forgot to tell you one thing. You may be unfamiliar with my name, but you must have heard of my nickname. People call me 'Wu Du' because I am an orphan. I have been competing with wild wolves and dogs for food since I was a child. Sometimes, when there is nothing to eat, I eat the five poisons and drink dew. So my whole body is poisonous. When the five poisons see me, they have to coil around me. As for whether they will coil around you as well, I don't know." As he said that, he pulled up Leng Shi's collar and prepared to put the small black snake into his clothes.

Leng Shi's defenses crumbled again, and he yelled out everything, "I'm from the Yuezhi! It was our Yuezhi Crown Prince who wanted me to kidnap Mu Lingxue! The Yuezhi have little land and the people are starving. Our informant says Mu Lingxue has cultivated crops that can yield two thousand kilograms per mu, so the Crown Prince wants to capture her and present her to His Majesty."

"Oh?" Chu Qingmeng looked at Leng Shi with interest. The sinister smile on his face made Leng Shi feel that he was seen through. However, when he saw Chu Qingmeng put the black snake away, Leng Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Qingmeng stood up and sat in the main seat. He rinsed his mouth with tea and spit it out before dozing off. He'd talked too much today and was a little tired. Within a quarter of an hour, the secret guards brought back Mu Lingxue. Mo Liuyuan couldn't help but feel distressed at the sight of the dusty Mu Lingxue, and the two Mu brothers felt even more distressed. The three of them surrounded Mu Lingxue, asking about her well-being. Chu Qingmeng raised his eyes to glance at Mu Lingxue, then suddenly sneered and said nothing. Mo Liujin looked at Chu Qingmeng strangely. Weren't they close friends?

Just as everyone was celebrating the return of 'Mu Lingxue', in the woods thirty miles away from the capital, a soaked Mu Lingxue was trying to run towards the capital. When she heard the faint sound of horse hooves, she had no choice but to abandon the main road and run to a small path on the side.

Chu Qingmeng, who was sitting in the main seat, impatiently interrupted the three people's greetings with 'Mu Lingxue', saying, "Hey, guys, that's enough! Stop being so annoying!"

Everyone fell silent, looking up at Chu Qingmeng, unsure of what she meant. She rested her chin on one hand, a mocking expression on her face as she suddenly spoke to Mu Lingxue, "Wang Defa."

"What?" Mu Lingxue was stunned, obviously not understanding what she meant. "Sister Qingmeng, what do you mean?"

Chu Qingmeng lowered his eyes, hiding the mockery in them. He took out his fist dagger, donning it while walking towards Mu Lingxue. He approached her and whispered softly in her ear, "What I mean is, your death is coming."

Before he finished speaking, he punched Mu Lingxue in the chest. Because they were too close, Mo Liuyuan had not yet reacted, and Mu Lingxue was already bent over by the punch. At the same time, Chu Qingmeng's other hand drew his sword quickly, steadily and ruthlessly, and killed her with one blow.
