struggling to move his arms, he pulls out a porcelain bottle and pours out blood pills. As a result, his hands are too weak to catch the four pills, scattering them all over the ground. Only one pill remains in his hand.
Shakily, I feed it into my mouth, and a warm current flows through every limb and bone. I somehow manage to gather a bit more strength, and am able to stand up.
picking up the rest of the pills, I stumbled forward to stand in front of Lao Gong, pulling out the sword stuck in his mouth.
Lao Gong's limbs convulsed uncontrollably, as if he had been electrocuted, and he kept trying to pull his body back down.
Instantly, Lao Gong's head returned to its original form, but he remained motionless and staring, as if his mind had been injured...
Without time to examine Lao Gong's condition, I moved wearily and went to my parents' side.
Crouching on the ground, I stuffed a blood pill into my father's mouth.
His injury was severe. Even the first blow was enough to make him suffer. However, after that, he still had to block Ma Yi, and the second blow left his chest covered in bloodstains.
My father's breathing began to become steady.
But my mother, her breath was as faint as a wisp.
My jaws clenched tight, and I was filled with fear in my heart.
"Mom, you can't die... Hang on..."
Her condition is much worse than my father's. She relies entirely on the abilities granted by that skin-eating object.
Without the skin-eating object, she was hit by Ma Yi's strike.
If it wasn't for Ma Yi's intention to bring them to Juxu Mountain to humiliate them, she would have already died.
With no other choice, I could only stuff a blood pill into her mouth.
Before, she couldn't take the blood pill because she had been enduring abuse in Luo's family for many years and her body was too weak. But during this time, she had recovered a lot, and hopefully, she could bear it...
The room was quiet, and my breathing was the heaviest. Qiu Yuyue was not present here.
Where is she now?
Did it have something to do with the part of the body and soul that Lao Qin manipulated?
She didn't see me because the soul inside her head is the true main soul, completely controlling her consciousness?
"Greatly the heaven, infinitely the laws, I, in accordance with the edict of the Ancestor of Juxu Mountain, invoke the Three Marao Immortals to descend. By this talisman and with incense as guide, I break through the barrier here. Swiftly open up, as per law and command!"
The voice was sharp, piercing into my ears, as if it were about to tear everything in front of me apart!
But in just that moment, it became elusive and distant… and then vanished completely…
I sat on the ground, my legs crossed.
The heart is bitter, helpless, unable to release anger, but also unable to emit anger.
"The might of an Immortal…"
"With the protection of He Yun Tian and the firm stance of Zheng Ren, my understanding of the Immortal's strength is somewhat blurred."
The unilateral crushing was indeed not felt, with no idea of how great the pressure was.
With my current level of strength during the fight between Tian Shou Dao Ren, Lao Liu Zhenqi, and Lao Liu Yujie, I only felt their immense power. Being outside the battle, I couldn't truly gauge how strong they were.
Later, because the soul of Gaoding Tairen had taken over, or because my own strength was not at that level, I could only see the spiritual techniques but not the pressure of the field.
Ma Yi is definitely weaker than Tian Shou Dao Ren.
I don't know how he compares to He Yun Tian or Zheng Ren.
Perhaps, they are on the same level.
The yin and yang boundary, the four laws mountain, the Juxu Mountain, the Yunjin Mountain, and the ancient Qiang City are parallel to each other. They must have their own deep meaning. Only because Zheng Ren kept secrets that caused the four laws mountain to decline greatly in recent years...
Hiding here might allow for a temporary survival, but how long can it be concealed?
Even if Ma Yi cannot break through the barrier of nightmares, but if he can seal this place...
Nobody knows what happened here.
Ah, the people of Juxu Mountain know about the disturbance of the Marao True Immortal's avatar. Maro Su and the True Immortals of Juxu Mountain know there is a problem here. Then Ma Yi directly says that he has resolved it?
Then who can break through?
We are trapped in the nightmares, we will be sealed in this place!
Even possibly... To cover up, Ma Yi might stay here for a long time...
We must get out, and we need to do it as soon as possible.
The best thing to do is for the Liu family, a Taoist from the ancient Qiang City, to come and help us!
That is the only chance.
"Gasp... Ahh..." hearing Lao Gong's trembling voice, I felt a little bit of relief.
"Are you okay, Lao Gong?" Turning my head, I looked concernedly at Lao Gong.
"Not... not yet..." Lao Gong looked despondent.
"Using strength to bully the weak, that's really shameless. Taking by force, he really deserves to die." Lao Gong gritted his teeth.
Ma Yi really deserves to die.
Not just for today's actions, but also for his ruthless behavior towards the Seven Elders earlier!
Yes, how could a decent and honest Taoist resort to killing other temple elders?
"We need to find a way to survive and escape." I shook my head, unblinded by the hatred.
"The Liu family from the ancient Qiang City, once they arrive, will give us a chance," Lao Gong said faintly.
His thoughts were indeed the same as mine.
"A little miss without a head still thinks about you, Mr. You. Even though you have wronged her heart, she still saves your life. Look at it, isn't that the case?"
Lao Gong's head rolled towards the door of the hall.
My familiarity with his impropriety, I have adapted to it, and I didn't open my mouth to refute him.
At least, Qiu Yuyou's other fragmented souls are indeed interested in me.
"She won't harm the elder and the madam. We need to find her so that she can observe the outside world at any time. When the Liu family arrives, she can let us out." Lao Gong glanced around and rolled over the threshold, continuing in a certain direction.
I straighten my body and follow Lao Gong.
Passing through this familiar yet unfamiliar corridor, I have no heart to observe everything around.
A few minutes later, Lao Gong rolled to a corridor junction filled with peonies. The gaze ahead led straight to the room where the girls lived.
Just, the door of the room is tightly closed.
Lao Gong jumped up, landing on my shoulder. I slowly walked to the door of the room.
Hesitating slightly, I reached out and knocked on the door.
With a knocking sound, there was no sound inside the house.
Lao Gong winked at me as if wanting me to push the door open directly, but he also looked extremely afraid.
I took a deep breath and pushed the door directly.
For me, I am not afraid of Qiu Yuyou. Lao Gong is afraid of her because ghosts are suppressing him, and his level is not high enough.
The door creaked open.
Inside the room, a corpse sits quietly by the bedside, dressed in a robe, and the pupils are lifeless.
Qiu Yuyou brought us into the nightmare, but she didn't forget her fiancé.
Otherwise, Ma Yi would have been raging in the mansion and might have injured the corpse.
As for Qiu Yuyou, she sits in front of the copper mirror, gently combing her hair. With each stroke, she neatly combs her slightly disheveled hair into a tidy and elegant style.
"You, are you going to leave?"
She gently turned her head, her tone ethereal with a hint of melancholy.
"I haven't replied yet, but Lao Gong muttered, 'Even though the little miss has a head, she still wants another husband. You can't leave, or if someone comes outside, you have to show your face.'"
Clang!
Lao Gong's head actually hit the ground, and Qiu Yuyou silently appeared in front of me, her bare feet stepping on Lao Gong's face.
"Ahh... Ahh..." Lao Gong only stunned for a moment, but his face turned lecherous and enjoyable instead.
"Are you... going to leave?" Qiu Yuyou's beautiful eyes held a hint of resentment.
