Chapter 225: The Grand Finale (Part 1)
The Eastern Ghost Emperor entered the room silently. Upon seeing the pale-faced, lifeless boy on the bed, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
Just now, he discovered that the formation of Yue Huai's subordinates had suddenly disappeared in the underworld, and he realized that something was wrong. After calculating with his fingers, he actually saw the news of Yue Huai's death.
So he hurriedly led his subordinates to the human world to find out what was going on, but unexpectedly, his soul was really scattered!
The Eastern Ghost Emperor, his face deathly pale, staggered into the courtyard and nodded sorrowfully to his subordinates.
When the subordinates saw this, they all turned pale.
Seeing this, the evil god dispelled his doubts.
It seems that these two have truly been annihilated.
Hahahaha! This world is finally his.
If he absorbs another hundred thousand souls, he will be able to successfully revive.
The evil god was overjoyed at this thought. Looking at the Shao family, he considered using them as a starting point, but then he thought again that the Ghost Emperor was still around, so it might be difficult to make a move.
Just as he was thinking this, the Ghost Emperor hurriedly returned to the Underworld with several subordinates.
The evil god watched the hurried figure leave, then thought for a moment and understood.
With Hades dead, the formations that suppressed the great demons in the underworld must have all disappeared. They need to go back and deal with the turmoil in the underworld.
The evil god watched as the gate to hell disappeared into the air, and his smile widened.
Now that they're all gone, I can go on a killing spree!
The evil god thought this, and he did it.
With a wave of his hand, a cloud of black mist enveloped the Shao family's residence, sweeping towards everyone present.
Everyone was enveloped in the black mist and soon lost consciousness.
The evil god suddenly floated down, looked at the people lying on the ground, and laughed loudly.
He immediately grabbed Shao Chengrui by the collar and examined him carefully.
"No wonder he's the reincarnation of the God of Literature! The purple aura of merit on his body is truly abundant, and his soul must be very nourished!"
Jing Shu was also brought to the ground. Hearing this, although she was puzzled as to how Shao Chengrui could be the reincarnation of the God of Literature, she still immediately flattered him, saying, "You are right, sir. You have good judgment. You were the first to absorb his soul."
The evil god listened to the flattery and became very pleased with himself.
He reached out and placed his hands on the man's forehead, grabbing at it as if trying to pull out the soul from its body.
Unexpectedly, they found nothing.
The evil god looked at his hand in confusion, and just as he was about to try again, he heard two voices behind him.
"Heaven has its net, earth has its own web; I draw upon my profound power to subdue demons! Heavenly net and earthly web, retract!"
As the two voices fell, the evil god was enveloped by a net gleaming with golden light.
Before he could react, two familiar figures appeared in front of him.
"You...you weren't dead? How dare you lie to me!"
The people in front of him were the dead Jingwu and Yue Huai. The two were dressed in blue clothes and stood side by side, exchanging a knowing smile.
Jingwu curled the corners of his lips and chuckled twice as he looked at the person in front of him: "If I don't put on an act, how can I lure out your true form?"
The evil god realized he had been tricked and was furious. He gritted his teeth and glared at the two people in front of him, his eyes filled with venom.
He suddenly remembered that he still had a hostage in his hands, which could still threaten the person in front of him. But when he looked down sharply, he saw that what he was holding was a piece of wood. His face darkened, and he threw the piece of wood away violently!
Turning his head, he saw that all the members of the Shao family lying on the ground had turned into wood.
"How dare you play me!"
"If I don't put out some bait to put on a show, how can you completely believe me?" Yue Huai raised an eyebrow and said disdainfully, "You have nowhere to escape, so stop struggling."
The evil god looked at the two people in front of him, and his anger soared. He was burning with rage, and a ball of black gas instantly expanded.
"Don't even think about it! Don't even think about making me admit defeat! If we're going to die, we'll die together! I refuse to believe that those people in the underworld can collect your souls again and help you be resurrected!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately made hand seals and chanted incantations, mobilizing the murderous energy within his body, intending to fight to the death. Even if he couldn't escape, he would make these two perish with him!
The black mist grew larger and larger, and in an instant it pierced through the net of heaven and earth, rushing towards the two of them.
Jing Wu was startled, realizing that he wanted to die together with him. He immediately tried to dodge, but he was too late and was hit squarely in the back by the black mist.
She suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and staggered to the ground.
Yue Huai desperately resisted the black mist. He couldn't spare a glance back, but he knew in his heart that A Wu's mortal body must be seriously injured.
His eyes darted around, and he roared through gritted teeth.
"Awu, summon Xiaoqing and Xiaozi, they know what to do!"
Jingwu immediately reacted and summoned Xiao Zi and Xiao Qing. Then, several images suddenly flashed through her mind.
In the scene, the woman who looks exactly like her is making hand seals and chanting incantations while pointing at Xiao Zi and Xiao Qing to attack the enemy.
Jingwu's eyes lit up, and he instantly followed the image in his mind, making hand seals and chanting incantations, using his own blood essence as a guide to input the cultivation technique into the two fans.
Xiaoqing and Xiaozi consciously joined forces and launched a powerful attack on the evil god's weakness.
In an instant, a shrill scream echoed throughout the entire mansion.
Jingwu felt something breaking through within her body, and as she listened to this sound, her head began to ache more and more.
She couldn't help but brace herself on the ground, as blurry, unfamiliar images flashed through her mind.
Jingwu slammed her head shut. She couldn't collapse now; she had to watch the evil god vanish into nothingness no matter what!
She gripped the hem of her dress tightly, her eyes fixed on the true form of the evil god before her.
Just then, Yue Huai summoned heavenly lightning, which struck the black mist repeatedly until there was no sound.
Jingwu forced himself to watch as the black mist dissipated, turning into specks of dust that flew towards a certain direction in the sky. He then knew that the evil god had been completely annihilated, and that everything remaining had been taken away by the Heavenly Dao itself. Only then did he feel relieved and collapse to the ground.
She couldn't hold on any longer, and slowly closed her eyes, completely losing consciousness.
When Yue Huai saw that she had closed her eyes, he immediately ran to her side and examined her carefully.
The seal was broken, but the meridians were also damaged.
She used her own essence and blood as a catalyst, losing most of it to Xiao Qing and Xiao Zi. At this moment, due to excessive consumption and the breaking of the seal within her body, she fainted.
Fortunately, the meridians were not damaged, and after a few months of recuperation, they will be back to normal.
Compared to last time... this is so much better.
Yue Huai, still shaken, held the person in his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and let out a deep sigh of relief.
When Jingwu woke up, half a month had passed.
The moment she opened her eyes, she stared blankly at the familiar bed curtains.
She then chuckled softly, and tears streamed down her face.
That's great, she's still alive.
Jingwu felt parched and wanted to get out of bed to pour herself a glass of water, but to her surprise, none of her limbs obeyed her commands.
She stared in shock, trying to move her hands and feet again, only to find they wouldn't budge.
What's going on?
Could it be that I'm paralyzed?
No way!
Jingwu was as if struck by lightning, staring in disbelief. Could it be that he would spend the rest of his life in bed?
Heavenly Dao, you're truly inhuman!
Hearing the commotion, the maidservant who was guarding the bedside immediately lifted the bed curtains to peek out. Seeing that she had opened her eyes, she instantly beamed with joy and ran out.
As she ran, she shouted, "Madam, Master, the young lady is awake! The young lady is awake!"
Jingwu glanced sideways at her retreating figure, feeling somewhat powerless.
No, don't go! Get me a glass of water first, I'm so thirsty!
The maid ran out happily, and then returned in a grand procession with several others.
Ruan Chongyue immediately rushed to the bedside, and seeing the girl open her eyes, tears streamed down her face.
"Ah Wu, you're finally awake! You scared us half to death!"
“That’s right, the imperial physicians came one after another, all saying that you would wake up soon. We waited and waited, and it took more than half a month for you to wake up. You really scared us!” Shao Che said with red eyes.
Seeing her uncle and aunt like this, Jingwu really wanted to reach out and wipe away their tears, but she couldn't move her hands and feet, so she could only force a smile to comfort them.
"I've woken up, haven't I? I've survived a terrible ordeal, so I'm sure I'll be blessed with good fortune!"
