Chapter 3248 Lesser Fullness (Throwing Away Trash)
Chapter 3248 Lesser Fullness (Throwing Away Trash)
The violent torrent of ghostly energy, carrying a world-destroying force, instantly scattered the besieging crowd.
The Ghost Ancestor's expression changed drastically. He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
He was struck head-on by the torrent of ghostly energy, and was sent flying backward, scattering a trail of blood in the air before crashing heavily against the distant mountain wall.
Mei Zhentian and the three elders were also thrown back, each spitting blood and looking utterly disheveled.
The remaining cultivators suffered even more casualties; their bodies, corroded by the ghostly energy, instantly rotted and turned into pools of black water.
Yang Rui and Hua Nian were also forced to retreat by the ghostly aura.
They struggled to get even a little closer to their junior sister.
Strangely, when the violent ghostly energy approached them, it seemed to encounter some kind of nemesis, and its power was greatly reduced.
Yang Rui struggled to lift his head, watching the ghostly, excited shouts emanating from the Blood Demon Cave, and his heart trembled.
"Little junior sister..."
"What should we do now?"
At this moment, Hu Xiaoman's face was ashen.
She immediately pulled out a handful of pills from the sky, divided them into three portions, and with a wave of her hand, sent the pills flying towards Yang Rui and Hua Nian respectively.
She also stuffed a handful into her mouth and chewed.
After taking the pill, Hua Nian struggled to her feet, clutching her chest, and stood beside her young mistress, looking around warily.
Only by recovering quickly can we fight against these people.
Hu Xiaoman looked ahead and said to Yang Rui, "Fourth Senior Brother, it's easy."
"Of course, we should make the best use of everything."
Yang Rui: "?"
Did the junior sister not understand what he meant?
He meant that with so much ghostly energy surging out, what if the monsters in the Blood Demon Cave soon rush out?
These weren't even the real monsters from the Blood Demon Cave; their mere presence was enough to rout everyone present.
If all the monsters in the Blood Demon Cave were to come out in full force, what kind of cataclysmic destruction would that cause?
At this moment, Yang Rui and Hua Nian were also forced to retreat by the terrifying torrent of ghostly energy, their blood and qi churning violently within them.
But the two of them soon realized that something was wrong.
The violent ghostly energy would suddenly be reduced by more than half when it came within three feet of them, becoming much milder.
If these ghostly energies were to unleash their full power, they would suffer the same fate as the others—either death or serious injury.
The closer they get to the junior master, the less influence the ghostly energy they receive.
"Is that Junior Sister?" Yang Rui clutched his chest, coughing violently, his gaze fixed on the red-clad figure standing tall ahead.
Hua Nian also looked at Hu Xiaoman, her eyes filled with worry and confusion.
The young lady was clearly the most seriously injured, so how was she able to withstand this terrifying ghostly energy?
Could it be that an invisible formation has been set up around them?
They just don't know?
Hu Xiaoman herself was also somewhat bewildered.
She could sense that the ghostly aura, powerful enough to severely injure even a Nascent Soul cultivator, seemed to be blocked by some invisible force when it approached her.
"jingle……"
A crisp, melodious bell rang out, sounding particularly jarring against the backdrop of howling ghosts and wolves.
A strong wind blew by, and the tassel of the Nine Spirits Hairpin on Hu Xiaoman's hair swayed gently.
The nine small silver bells at the end of the hairpin were emitting a faint light that was barely visible to the naked eye.
The raging ghostly energy, upon contact with this faint light, deliberately veered away, as if encountering a natural enemy, and swept towards the cultivators in other directions.
"Roar--!"
A furious roar filled with boundless killing intent came from the distant ruins of the mountain wall.
The Ghost Ancestor struggled to his feet, his robes torn, his white hair disheveled, and his face and body covered in blood.
One of its eyes was even cut open by rubble, bleeding black blood, making it look extremely ferocious.
He was enveloped in a thick, protective shield, clearly having used some powerful protective magic to survive the terrifying torrent of ghostly energy.
These ghostly energies are far too powerful.
"What a vicious girl!" The voice of the Ghost Ancestor was hoarse and venomous.
"They actually want to turn our Ghost Border Town into a living hell."
"Such a person is the enemy of the entire cultivation world!"
His voice was loud enough that almost every monk present could hear it.
His goal was to get all the cultivators present to work together to kill this little girl.
The Ghost Ancestor took a step forward, ready to attack them again.
It seems that killing them has become his obsession.
Yang Rui and Hua Nian's hearts sank upon seeing this.
Hua Nian said nervously, "Brother Yang Rui, that old geezer is here again."
Yang Rui held the white jade flute in his hand, coughing from time to time: "Little Niannian, it's alright. He came here to die on his own, there's nothing we can do about it."
Hu Xiaoman nodded: "Yes, we must respect everyone's fate."
"This old man has thick skin; we should make use of him."
The next moment, Hu Xiaoman moved, much to the utter horror of the Ghostly Ancestor.
She gave a cold and resolute smile, bent down, grabbed Mei Qianxiao by the collar—who was lying on the ground, barely breathing—due to the dual effects of the Soul-Eating Gu and ghostly energy—and lifted him up.
"No..." Mei Qianxiao let out a weak wail, her eyes filled with despair.
"Please, please, let me go."
Harming Hu Xiaoman was the most regrettable thing Mei Qianxiao had ever done in his life.
This woman is terrible.
"Heh, doesn't Young Master Mei like lively gatherings?" Hu Xiaoman's voice was soft, yet it clearly reached everyone's ears.
"It's quite lively inside this cave. I'll take you in to join the fun."
Before she could finish speaking, she jerked her arm.
Mei Qianxiao was thrown into the bottomless, dark entrance of the Blood Demon Cave without hesitation, just like trash!
The black opening, like a giant maw ready to devour anyone, instantly swallowed Mei Qianxiao's figure.
"Do not--!"
The Ghost Ancestor let out a heart-wrenching roar, his intact eye bulging as if it were about to burst.
"Xiao'er!!!" Mei Zhentian let out a desperate roar, his whole body frozen in place.
Mei Qianxiao's figure disappeared into the dark entrance of the Blood Demon Cave, like a pebble thrown into a bottomless abyss.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
The Ghost Ancestor's heart-wrenching roar still echoed in the air, but he stood frozen in place, his single eye filled with bloodshot veins and disbelief.
This is his only grandson!
“Xiao’er…” Mei Zhentian stared blankly at the cave entrance, his lips trembling.
This is his only son!
The next moment, his rationality was completely destroyed.
"son!"
Mei Zhentian let out a beast-like roar and, disregarding everything, transformed into a streak of light, rushing straight towards the Blood Demon Cave!
He is the head of the Ghost Clan, but he is also a father.
Mei Qianxiao was his only son, his only hope, and more important than his own life.
