Chapter 44: The Annihilation of the Entire Family!

The Hall of Law Enforcement was brimming with murderous intent.

Nangong Wen and Chen Mujian looked grim.

[That idiot Beitang Lechen]

What's the use of your regret? The person is already dead. If you truly feel sorry for them, then give your life in return.

Can crying really bring someone back to life?

Thankfully, Nangong Ying went on a killing spree in the end and took you away, otherwise I would have been furious.

Lou Yuqing felt extremely indignant towards this kind of person who was "not a pure bad person, but more disgusting than a bad person." Others died because of you, and you think it's okay to shed a couple of cat tears?

Si Nidie grew angrier and angrier as she listened, and almost smashed the table in anger. But considering that Captain Wei would come back and settle scores with her, she forcibly suppressed her impulse, though her fists clenched so tightly they made a loud thud.

The disciples looked at each other, marking Beitang Lechen, whom they had never met before, with a big X – Tianxing City was under the jurisdiction of Wendao Sect, and Wendao Sect disciples were not only denied access but also obstructed when they went there to carry out their mission?

This isn't just being stupid, it's defying the authority of the sect!

Not to mention, it ultimately led to the disciple's death.

at the same time.

Nangong Wen and Chen Mujian both looked at Nangong Ying. Nangong Ying lowered her head and was as inconspicuous as usual, but they could not ignore that Ying'er had done something big.

She killed Beitang Lechen.

This is not something a numb person could do.

Nangong Wen felt a glimmer of hope. Could it be that Ying'er was later freed from the curse and regained her senses...? But by then, he had already died in Tianxing City.

She and Ying'er were ultimately separated by death.

Nangong Wen hugged Nangong Ying, closed her eyes and remained silent, while Chen Mujian hugged Nangong Wen. The three of them looked like pitiful little creatures, huddling together for warmth.

Seeing their expressions, Lou Yuqing assumed they were unable to accept the punishment and were crying in despair. She secretly sighed that something even worse was yet to come, and that she should give them a warning when she had the chance, lest they end up like that.

The Wendao Sect will light soul lamps for outstanding disciples and place them in a lighthouse, where they will be guarded by designated personnel. Once a soul lamp goes out, the sect will immediately receive the news.

Therefore, after Chen Mujian and Nangong Wen's soul lamps went out, the guards reported it to the sect. The Enforcement Hall discovered that something was amiss and followed the clues to the Chen family and Tianxing City.

[At that time, it was three days later.]

Lou Yuqing's thoughts paused at this moment.

Everyone instinctively looked at her, and a sound and image unfolded above her head—

When the law enforcement disciples arrived at the Chen family's residence, they found the family's plaque stained with blood and on the verge of collapse. Looking through the gaping hole in the main gate, they saw corpses scattered everywhere and blood flowing like a river.

Nangong Ying stood atop a mound of corpses, her dark pupils gazing indifferently down below. The bright red birthmark on her face was so vivid it seemed to want to devour people.

The still-wet bloodstains, carrying a strong stench of blood, assaulted the crowd, proclaiming one fact—the Chen family had been wiped out!

Perhaps it was a true telepathic connection between the sisters; at the moment Nangong Wen perished, Nangong Ying felt a strong pang of fear, suddenly waking from her daze, and two lines of tears fell from her eyes.

Her older sister is dead; she no longer has a sister.

[Nangong Ying arrived in Tianxing City, killed Beitang Lechen, and rushed to the Chen family despite being pursued by the city lord.]

After arriving at the Chen family, Nangong Ying slaughtered the entire family.

She knew that her kind brother-in-law, who had always comforted and encouraged her, was also dead.

Looking at the bloody scene in the image, Nangong Wen and Chen Mujian were deeply shocked. Ying'er had always been kind and gentle, yet she had stained her hands with so much blood for them.

Perhaps, the moment Nangong Ying awoke, she was no longer the Nangong Ying of the past; her nature had become much more cruel than before.

However, none of this was taken to heart by the two parents who had a biased view of things. They only felt that Ying'er was forced into this situation entirely because of other people.

The ringleader was Mu Yunqing! Next was Chen Lao Er, then Beitang Lechen, and many other accomplices—all because of them!

Ying'er is utterly innocent.

Yes, Nangong Ying has many pitiful aspects.

Unfortunately, she committed such a heinous crime of wiping out her entire family, and was caught red-handed by a disciple of the Wendao Sect. After the fight, she fled and was subsequently placed on the sect's wanted list.

Si Nidie's eyes darkened slightly.

The cultivators listed on the sect's wanted list are not only disciples of their own sect, but also include offending disciples from other sects, as various sects exchange information with each other.

Whoever captures someone on the wanted list can come to the corresponding sect to claim the reward.

Therefore, Nangong Ying had virtually no place to stand on this northern continent.

Nangong Wen's heart tightened. Could her sister survive?!

Even after learning of her death, she was more angry than sad, but when she heard that Ying'er's fate was unknown, she couldn't suppress the panic in her heart.

[Nangong Ying escaped the encirclement and fled westward, disappearing into the deep mountains. She was never seen again. No one knows where she went, and no one has ever seen her again.]

The reason she regained consciousness at the last moment was not only because she sensed her older sister's death, but also because the person who caused it all had an accident at that time.

[Mu Yunqing was using the pills bestowed by her sect to break through her bottleneck, but because they hadn't been effective for a long time, she became impatient and activated all the pills' effects, wanting to break through her realm in one go.]

[In the end, the mission failed, and he died on the spot.]

Upon hearing the news of Mu Yunqing's death, subtle expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

Despite all his scheming, this person still lost his life before Nangong Ying.

Nangong Wen sneered. Dying so easily was too good for her; such an ending was too good for her.

However, she can't possibly die so easily now.

Nangong Wen glanced at Mu Yunqing, who was still unconscious on the ground, his eyes flashing like ice blades. A person like this should be disgraced and then die.

Why should she enjoy everyone's pity after she dies? Mu Yunqing doesn't deserve it at all!

Both the Soul-Absorbing Gu and the Beauty Gu are unfinished products. They will go berserk every once in a while, requiring the Gu master to constantly use incantations to restrain them.

After Mu Yunqing's death, the two Gu worms went out of control and began fighting inside Nangong Ying's body.

[Raising a gu is all about selecting the best – when two kings meet, the winner lives, the loser dies; there is no third way.]

The last surviving Beauty Gu devoured another Gu worm, undergoing a tremendous change. It broke free from its original shackles, allowing all of Nangong Ying's lost spiritual power to return, and enabling her to transcend to a higher realm.

A look of realization dawned on Gu Bugai's eyes. So that's how he accidentally cured the Gu. But won't the new Gu worm cause new problems?

He saw the benefits but not the drawbacks... If there were no drawbacks, then Nangong Ying's luck would be incredibly extraordinary.

Si Nidie didn't think too much about it. From her current perspective, the result was good. The combination of two unstable unfinished products coincidentally restored Nangong Ying's strength, preventing her from continuing to drift aimlessly.

But why is the birthmark still on her face?

As Si Nidie watched the images, she was somewhat concerned about this question—how many people in the world don't care about appearance? Women are one, and so are men.

It's okay if the shell isn't bleached, but it can't be ugly. What's even more unacceptable is that it was originally beautiful but later became ugly, and that's irreversible.

However, Nangong Ying, who was being played by the system, remained expressionless as she watched the law enforcement disciples of the Wendao Sect, their feet paved with the carnage they had committed.

Having shaken off their pursuit, and about to disappear into the mountains, Nangong Ying glanced back towards the direction of Wendao Sect. Her eyes, hidden beneath her black cloak, showed a struggle before finally settling into tranquility.

The image remains frozen here.

Looking at her sister's expression, Nangong Wen was somewhat lost in thought. The voice said that her sister would disappear in the future. Would she never come back here again?

That's true. Although Wendao Sect is a peaceful place, it is also a place of sorrow.

Nangong Wen knew that her sister's body had changed because of that Gu worm. In the past, she would not have pursued the culprit's responsibility, but now she was ruthless enough to wipe out the entire Chen family.

If they weren't weaker than the City Lord of Beitang, their entire family would probably have been captured by the younger sister as well.

Feeling the warmth of the person in his arms, Nangong Wen selfishly thought, if being a bad person could make him live longer, then he would let his sister become like that.

But this voice did not spare the Lord of Beitang City.

Years later, the entire family of the City Lord of Tianxing City was wiped out. Strangely, not a drop of blood was spilled, because the corpses had all turned into mummies.

Some say they saw a dark figure that night.

Whether it's true or false, nobody knows.

All that is known is that this person is extremely vicious and ruthless, killing without blinking an eye.

"..."

The Hall of Enforcement was completely silent.

This method cannot be summarized by the word "ruthless".

Everyone glanced at Nangong Ying, unable to believe that such a timid girl would later transform into such a great demon.

Nangong Ying stared blankly, feeling everyone secretly watching her. Uncomfortably, she turned her head to the side and buried her face in her sister's shoulder.

Gu Bugai pondered the words "mummified corpse" and thought of the western region. Suddenly, a conjecture arose in his mind: the demonic cultivators had always occupied the western part of the continent. Could it be that Nangong Ying later became involved with the demonic path?

Moreover, he discovered that this demonic path had been appearing quite frequently lately, which was one of the reasons why Song Li and her daughter were being hunted down, and it was also somewhat related to Wei Houming being schemed against by Meng Siyu...

Just then, a soft moan rang out.

Mu Yunqing opened her eyes, unaware of what day it was, and stared blankly at the white jade ceiling, saying, "I'm not dead?"

When Nangong Wen saw her wake up, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and his gaze cut through her throat like two icy blades: "Of course you're not dead. I didn't put poison in the fruit."

Nangong Wen's voice seemed to come from a snow-capped mountain that had never melted over the years, chilling people to the bone and sending a chill through their very bones.

Mu Yunqing instinctively covered her throat, fearing that Nangong Wen would cut it open. She still remembered her conversation with Nangong Wen before she lost consciousness. This man was simply a madman, capable of anything.

However, Mu Yunqing quickly realized that this was not Nangong Wen's cave, but rather...

The sect's Enforcement Hall!

Mu Yunqing stood up, her pupils contracted slightly, and her heart pounded violently in her chest. Her conversation with Nangong Wen must not be leaked.

Otherwise, she would be completely finished.

However, her hopes were quickly shattered by Nangong Wen himself. She saw Nangong Wen take out a dusty, gray object, which was a photographic stone.

"Do you want me to argue with you?" Nangong Wen looked confident of victory.

Yes, the other side came prepared; how could they not have a backup plan?

Mu Yunqing's lips trembled as if she wanted to say something, but her reason told her that it would be useless to say anything at this moment.

The evidence is irrefutable.

The evidence of her harming her fellow disciples is in Nangong Wen's hands.

Mu Yunqing's legs went weak, and she collapsed back to the ground, her face ashen. She didn't even have the thought of running away. In this place covered by the great formation, if she made any unusual move, she would be caught by the sect.

Nangong Wen and the others looked at her without any sympathy. If you dare to do such a thing, you should be prepared to bear the consequences when things are exposed.

"Mu Yunqing, the poison in Ying'er's body is thanks to you. If you have any conscience at all, then honestly remove the poison from her body," Nangong Wen said with an icy expression.

Mu Yunqing chuckled twice, lost in thought. Conscience? She probably didn't have one.

She thought that if she had another chance, she would definitely... still do the same thing.

This is the fate of the greedy and the envious.

"I don't know how to cure poison," Mu Yunqing said matter-of-factly. "Have you ever seen anyone who harms others leave behind an antidote? Naturally, the more poisonous, the better."

Nangong Wen's forehead veins bulged: "You..."

Seeing that she was angry, Mu Yunqing felt happy instead. That's right, she deliberately provoked the other party. So what if Nangong Ying is crippled? What does it have to do with her?

Lou Yuqing blinked. Was this a case of "what's the use of trying"?
