The Mystic Princess is Too Invincible! The Abstinent and Cruel King Breaks His Rules and Pampers Her
Chapter 176 The Daughter of Empress Tantai
Everyone gathered around the Corpse Soul Fruit, their expressions varied.
Jiang Ling continued, "A Corpse Soul Fruit requires a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood to grow. Once mature, consuming it can strengthen the soul, allowing a soul that was originally unable to reincarnate to successfully enter the cycle of reincarnation."
"The fragrance emitted when the Corpse Soul Fruit ripens directly affects the soul."
Jiang Ling raised her eyes and scanned everyone, asking, "Is there anything wrong with any of you?"
Everyone looked down at themselves, their eyes filled with confusion for a long time before they all shook their heads.
Jiang Ling frowned.
Weird!
They all fainted, so how come no one noticed the problem?
"Master, will something happen to our souls?" Xi Mei's eyes, hidden behind her mask, looked at her cautiously.
Peng Peng covered his face in terror, muttering anxiously, "What should we do? Will we go be possessed by evil spirits? I don't want to die!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ling shook her head at them.
The Xuanmen (mystical sect) has no record of what the consequences would be if one smelled the fragrance of the Corpse Soul Fruit.
Lin Qingfeng's background is mysterious. Will he know?
Faced with Jiang Ling's probing and curious gaze, Lin Qingfeng pursed his lips and replied, "I'll send a message to Master and the others to ask what to do with this Corpse Soul Fruit."
“It’s both an evil object and a treasure. Let’s put it away for now.” Jiang Ling had a premonition. “Maybe it will come in handy when we go to the capital of Chu.”
She carefully put the Corpse Soul Fruit into a box and put it away.
No one else had an opinion.
This place is a space formed by an array. After they joined forces to break the array, the space above them collapsed, revealing a sinkhole. When they flew out, they realized that it was hidden deep underground in the city lord's mansion.
"Master! Are you alright?"
"Little Celestial Masters, you've finally come out! You gave Old Ghost quite a fright!"
Mu Feng and Gong Baiwei breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Jiang Ling and her group appear safely.
Barrier canceled.
The ghost bride, along with all the ghosts in the city, wailed and plunged into the sinkhole. They found their own remains, their cries so pitiful and heartbreaking that they evoked boundless pity and sympathy.
Lin Qingfeng sighed and instructed Nangong Yuxiu and Peng Peng to join him in performing a ritual to deliver the souls of the city from suffering.
After a day and a night,
The ritual has concluded successfully.
There were no more ghosts in the city, the eerie atmosphere that had enveloped the ghost town finally dissipated, and sunlight once again shone on the earth.
But the city was empty and desolate, filled only with a desolate and mournful silence.
When will this dead city be able to come back to life?
"Thump!" Mu Feng knelt at the entrance of the city lord's mansion, and buried all the corpses on the spot, erecting a mass grave for ten thousand people.
His sister, Mulan, is also buried here.
Mu Feng's eyes reddened, and he gritted his teeth to hold back his tears. His voice was choked and hoarse as he cried out, "Father! Mother! Sister! Our revenge has finally been achieved!!"
"Father! Mother! Sister! I will live well!"
"I, Mu Feng, swear that I will restore the glory of the Mu family!!"
Upon hearing this, Xi Mei's expression changed, and she suddenly took a step forward.
Her eyes, hidden behind the mask, scrutinized Mu Feng from head to toe with sharp intensity. "Mu? Your surname is Mu?"
"Yes."
Mu Feng nodded. He was very grateful to Jiang Ling and the others, and no longer concealed his identity.
He stood up, cupped his hands, and bowed deeply to Jiang Ling and the others. "My father is General Mu Anguo of Rongchang City! I, Mu Feng, swear to repay the great kindness and virtue shown to my Mu family by all the Celestial Masters!"
"Repay? Hahaha! So you're Mu Anguo's son!"
Ximei was extremely agitated; even her mask couldn't conceal the dramatic changes in her facial expressions.
Mu Feng sensed something was wrong and nervously stepped back. "Master, do you know my father?"
"hehe."
Xi Mei struck with lightning speed, punching Mu Feng in the chest and sending him flying into the wall.
"Cough cough cough—" Mu Feng coughed up blood in pain, feeling as if his ribs were broken.
Before he could react...
A cold, murderous wind swept over them. Xi Mei's five fingers gripped Mu Feng's throat tightly. Her petite and slender body lifted the young man Mu Feng off the ground, pinning him against the wall with her neck choked.
"...Huh...Celestial Master?"
Mu Feng gripped Xi Mei's wrist tightly, unable to understand.
Why does the Celestial Master look at him as if he has a blood feud?
"You dare to repay me? I knew you were Mu Gou's son..."
Filled with boundless resentment, Xi Mei tightened her grip on Mu Feng's neck, cursing viciously, "I'll kill you! Go to the underworld and reunite with your parents!!"
"Xi Mei! Stop!"
Jiang Ling raised her hand, and the talisman flew out, transforming into ropes to bind and pull Xi Mei away.
Xi Mei struggled desperately, turning her head with bloodshot eyes filled with extreme resentment, "Master! Let me go! I'm going to kill him!!"
"Master! You promised to avenge me! Why are you stopping me?"
"Aaaaaah! Let go!!"
Xi Mei had gone completely mad, losing all reason and only wanting to tear Mu Feng to pieces!
Jiang Ling strode over and pointed to Xi Mei's forehead, chanting a spell: "Exorcise evil and protect the spirit, purify the mind, settle down!"
A flash of inspiration entered Ximei's forehead.
Ximei gradually calmed down and stopped struggling and resisting violently.
Large tears fell down.
Xi Mei bent over, her eyes red as she wept, "Master, it was him! His father led the massacre of my mother's clan! The entire family was wiped out, more than 1,200 people were killed! Without exception!"
"Waaaaah, Master! The hatred of our clan's annihilation must be avenged!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
Murong Yan frowned in deep thought.
Mu Feng clutched his neck, coughing painfully, looking dazed and absent-minded.
Nangong Yuxiu and Lin Qingfeng were both extremely shocked!
Jiang Ling reached out and touched Xi Mei's head, sighing, "Xi Mei, his father is dead, and the massacre of his clan was not his doing."
"But the sins of the father must be visited upon the son! It is only right that I kill him!!"
Xi Mei raised her head, her resentful gaze capable of causing harm; if Mu Feng could do that, he would have already torn her to pieces, leaving only bones.
Mu Feng shuddered, as if he had remembered something.
His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Ximei, his hoarse, aching voice straining to utter, "You! You are... Empress Tantai's daughter!!"
"That's right! It's me!"
Xi Mei, her voice a mixture of laughter and tears, sarcastically remarked, "You didn't expect to still be alive, did you? I must live! I'm back to slaughter you all! To avenge my mother, and to avenge the Tantai clan!!"
Xi Mei became agitated again, letting out a heart-wrenching roar, her spiritual energy surging and becoming unstable.
Jiang Ling stared at her with a deep frown.
Something is wrong!
This can't go on any longer!
Jiang Ling reached out and quickly pinched the back of Xi Mei's neck. "Master...?"
Xi Mei lost consciousness and collapsed limply into Jiang Ling's arms.
Jiang Ling took her pulse with a cold face, and soon an expression of "I knew it" appeared on her face. She sighed helplessly: "It's the scent of the Corpse Soul Fruit that has aroused the hatred in her heart. She is not rational right now. Let's wait until she is sober before we talk about it."
Then, Jiang Ling looked at Mu Feng, her eyes turning colder, "Mu Feng, you have to come with us!"
Regardless of past grievances, now that we know Ximei's identity, we cannot let him go.
