Chapter 226 Qingbao and her daughter are identified as murderers

Tang Chen's eyes blazed with grief and anger.

Her eyes were bloodshot, her Dao heart wavered, and spiritual power surged from her body, almost causing her to lose control.

An immense force surged towards Qingbao.

Qingbao instinctively used the judge's pen to defend herself.

The moment the pen is wielded.

A faint snap of fingers rang out again.

The grieving magistrate and the resentful Xiao Hemiao vanished into thin air before Tang Chen's eyes in an instant.

Tang Chen's heart was crushed, and she felt excruciating pain all over her body, as if her skin had been peeled off and her bones had been torn apart.

She lost her mind; even breathing was painful.

Ming County was completely destroyed.

It's all ruined by the person in front of me!

"ah--"

Overwhelmed with grief, Tang Chen recklessly attacked Si He and her daughter.

"We didn't do this, we were set up." Si He's eyes were also red as she dodged her attacks.

Qingbao used the Book of Life and Death to suppress her, and cried out in a trembling voice:

"Listen, we have no reason to harm the people of Ming County!"

But Tang Chen wouldn't listen to any of that.

She was devastated and overwhelmed by despair, unable to think straight.

She stood still, rooted to the spot.

They gave up resistance.

A numb person seems to shatter at the slightest breeze.

"Qingbao, even if you destroy everything here, I will not stay by your side or serve you. I will kill you."

Her tone was so flat it was frightening.

Qingbao felt as if her throat was being choked, and a hint of confusion appeared in her big eyes.

"You think it was because I wanted to keep you by my side that I... that I attacked thousands of innocent people?"

"Isn't that so?" Tang Chen's voice trembled. "A thousand years ago, Qing Xuan did not hesitate to set fire to and destroy Ming County in order to abduct me to cultivate immortality and sever my ties."

This wasn't the first time she'd done something like this; Qingbao simply wanted to keep her by her side to serve.

For example, Qingxuan back then.

"What's the difference between you and Qingxuan?"

Whether it's the cultivation world or the underworld, Tang Chen has never trusted either side.

She was like a weed caught in a crack; whoever wanted to use her would uproot her and destroy the land that nurtured her.

She never had the right to choose.

Memories flashed before my eyes, and the tears in my eyes were a testament to my sorrow and pain.

"Perhaps, someone like me shouldn't have been born into this world," she murmured.

Her existence has killed countless people.

Her cultivation was forged by stepping on the corpses of millions of ordinary people.

She could no longer bear the same misery.

Having resolved to die, Tang Chen smiled sadly as she slowly gathered her qi and raised it above her head.

"Qingbao, she's going to commit suicide—" Sihe exclaimed in shock, instinctively rushing over to stop her.

Qingbao quickly retrieved the Book of Life and Death and shouted, "Tangchen, this was done by Tianxian. They lured us here to frame us. If you die, wouldn't that be exactly what they wanted?"

With the suppressed power disappearing, Tang Chen's eyes cleared for a moment.

She looked at Qingbao but didn't say anything.

Si He's eyes were red, but her tone was gentle and calm as she reassured her, "Qingbao is telling the truth. We were lured here by Xuanyue. Ming County... was once my hometown. How could I destroy it!"

"Please don't do anything foolish, trust us, okay?"

"If you don't believe me, let's go to Tianxian together and confront them!"

"If your daughter were still alive, she would definitely want you to live on..."

The sincerity in Si He's eyes touched Tang Chen.

Tang Chen inexplicably trusted her a little, and a sense of closeness arose in her heart.

She slowly lowered her palm, and the spiritual energy in her palm was withdrawn.

Qingbao reached out her hand to her, "Xiao Chen, believe me, let's go to Tianxian together, get to the bottom of this, and seek justice for them!"

Tang Chen glanced at her hands, hesitated for a moment, and slowly walked towards Qing Bao.

She reached out her hand to Qingbao's little hand.

Just as their hands were about to touch.

Snap—

The flame in Qingbao's palm had appeared at some point, leaping and flickering in front of the three of them.

It exudes the same aura of desolation as this burned-out land.

This aura comes from the underworld!

now.

The last vestige of reason that Tang Chen had managed to regain vanished completely.

Qingbao extinguished the flame. "Damn it, Yixuan tampered with this fire!"

boom--

Tang Chen's umbrella had transformed into a sharp blade, fiercely attacking Qing Bao.

"You still say it wasn't you! You still say it wasn't you!!!"

"You despicable scoundrels, you vicious demons, you treat human life as worthless to achieve your goals! I will kill you!!!"

Why did you lie to me?!

This sentence carries a strong sense of helplessness.

The little trust she had painstakingly built up had vanished, and she was completely devastated.

Qingbao used the Judge's Pen to defend herself. Although the Judge's Pen was a divine object and could withstand Tang Chen's attack, it was not the only one that could withstand it.

But it has a huge thrust.

Keep pushing the little guy backward.

Until it crashed into the scorching mountain behind it, the mountain collapsed with a deafening roar.

Qingbao coughed up a mouthful of blood and slowly crawled out of the dusty, scorching space.

"It really wasn't us..."

Tang Chen's all-out attack was simply too powerful. If she couldn't defeat Yi Xuan, Qing Bao couldn't imagine how strong Yi Xuan was.

She struggled to support her small body, trying to clear up the misunderstanding once again.

But Tang Chen remained expressionless, hovering in mid-air, looking down from above.

The umbrella remained open, spinning on her toes, clamoring and emitting mournful cries.

Tang Chen lowered her eyes, her heart ashen. "It doesn't matter anymore."

"None of that matters anymore. Whether it's you or Tianxian, I won't let you go. I won't let either of you go!"

I'd rather kill the wrong people from both sides to avenge Ming County.

She will never let any of them go.

Because she didn't want to live anymore.

If it weren't for revenge, life would be pretty meaningless, really!

Kill Qingbao, then destroy Tianxian!

She could then return to the mountains and rivers, free and at ease, never having to experience such a tragedy again.

Never again!

"Qingbao, die!" She unleashed her power, and a surge of powerful spiritual energy caused the wind and clouds to change color.

He poured all his cultivation into this one strike.

She closed her eyes, coughed up blood, and struck Qingbao fiercely.

boom--

Qingbao instinctively used the Book of Life and Death to defend herself.

But the Book of Life and Death hasn't been thrown out yet.

Then I felt myself fall into a familiar, warm embrace.

Si He used all her cultivation to protect herself and held Qing Bao tightly.

The blow landed on her back.

She frowned in pain and coughed up blood.

"Mother—" Warm blood dripped onto Qingbao's little hand, and Qingbao's big eyes seemed to turn red.

She stared blankly at her mother, then broke down and cried out, "Mother!"

Tang Chen opened her eyes, a hint of disbelief flashing across her face, but she quickly came to terms with it.

They're all murderers, so let them all die together.

“I will send you and your daughter to hell together,” she said. “That way you will never be separated.”

He formed hand seals again, preparing to finish them off with a single blow.

At the same time the attack was launched.

The brocade pouch in Tang Chen's arms suddenly trembled violently.

The tiny strands of baby hair burst forth from the brocade pouch, radiating light.

Before the attack landed, the baby hair transformed into a protective shield, completely enveloping Sihe.

Bang--

The protective shield shattered, and the baby hair disappeared, turning to ashes.

Tang Chen was filled with confusion and shock. After realizing what was happening, she was in so much pain that she could no longer move.

What did she just do?
