Chapter 350: The Oriole Behind

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

They had just left the Mu family’s peach forest when the Great Mountain Alliance’s flying ship was attacked by an unknown cultivator.

With just one strike, even the flying ship was destroyed. There was also a black silk barrier that blocked their path. Shenshan Qiuhua and the others immediately fell into a dangerous situation.

“Hand over the Divine Possession Girl and I won’t kill you.” A crisp female voice sounded from the sky.

A petite woman wrapped in a red veil slowly descended from above. Black hair spread out in all directions.

It turned out that the black threads that had cut open the flying ship and formed a bird cage to block their path were all this person’s hair.

“We should have no grudges with Senior. Why are you blocking our path?” Elder Mu spoke solemnly. That person only looked at them and gave them a lot of pressure.

The strength of the two sides was clearly not on the same level.

“I’ve already told you to hand over the Divine Possession Girl. Since you don’t know how to take the initiative, don’t blame me.”

The figure behind the veil waved his hand, and 3,000 black threads flew towards them.

Every black strand was condensed from extremely terrifying hatred and was extremely tough. Under the stimulation of the cold Yin qi, every single strand could unleash terrifying might.

Elder Mu and the others were at the Golden Core realm at most. The sword technique they slashed out was unable to block the invasion of the black hair.

They could only use their flying swords to dodge the hair cage.

However, the speed at which the hair grew was even faster than their flying swords. In just a moment, there was no way to dodge.

Just as they were about to be riddled with holes by these hair strands, a golden light suddenly appeared and actually cut off the black threads that covered the sky.

When the golden light dissipated, it could be seen that it was a Buddhist hand that seemed to be made of gold.

“Amitabha. Hair is the vessel of worry and trouble. Benefactor, do you still not understand?”

What struck out that Buddhist hand was a strange golden statue with a thousand hands on its back, half Buddha and half Demon.

A Buddhist hand on the back of the golden statue struck out again. With a light slash in the gentle Buddhist light, it easily cut off a large area of the tough and indestructible hair cage, revealing a gap that could be used to escape.

Elder Mu and the others cupped their hands in thanks behind the golden statue and quickly fled from the gap in the cage.

They turned into a few streaks of light and quickly disappeared from sight.

The figure of the woman hidden between the red veil and black hair fluttered as she wanted to pursue, but the golden statue appeared in front of her and did not move an inch.

“Monk, you’re so unreasonable. How can you stop a woman like me? Could it be that Master wants to rob me?”

“Eh? What monk are you? I find you familiar.”

“Make way. I’ll definitely review our relationship tonight after this. How about it?”

The two Buddhist hands earlier easily cut off her hair of resentment. This made the woman in the red veil filled with fear towards this person who blocked her path and was unwilling to become enemies with him.

However, she tried to bypass it several times but failed. Seeing the sword lights fly farther and farther away, she also understood that if she did not deal with this strange statue, she would not be able to capture the Divine Possession Girl.

The female cultivator behind the red veil carefully sized up the appearance of the statue and was slightly surprised.

Half flesh, half golden body, half demon, and half Buddha. It looked abnormal.

Moreover, she felt that she had seen that demonic face somewhere before.

“This monk appreciates the good intentions of the female Bodhisattva. Put down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha on the spot. Female Bodhisattva, please be magnanimous and let those benefactors off?”

The Divine Statue clone was still unmoved. He pressed his palms together in front of his chest, and the Buddhist eyes on his face were devout and demonic.

“I admire your profound Buddhist Dharma. Since you say so, then… go to hell!”

The female voice behind the red sand suddenly became sinister and terrifying. The black threads floating in the air were instantly dyed red and slashed at the statue in the middle.

When she attacked, there was a dense ghost qi and cold wind. Such a move was simply not something that a living person could use.

In those strands of hair, there was resentment, bitterness, and dense bloody killing intent. Ordinary cultivators would die upon contact.

In fact, after being killed, they would not even have the chance to become ghosts. It was an extremely vicious and ruthless move.

However, the Divine Statue clone held a large amount of hair in his hand and casually rubbed it.

The hair that was far more powerful than ordinary Profound-rank artifacts melted away like snow in spring.

This method of condensing negative emotions for oneself was naturally useful against ordinary cultivators.

However, in the body of the Divine Statue clone, the endless sufferings and chaotic wills of the world were colliding at all times.

Such great enlightenment produced Ananda’s blood tears and created epiphany on the Divine Statue clone, these evil thoughts were useless in front of him.

“This is impossible! Who are you!”

When the woman blocking the way saw her resentment threads being broken, she was shocked and furious. She attacked even more crazily.

The ghost qi of the frozen living beings spread in the air. For a time, cold wind swept through the dark clouds and covered the sun, dyeing the plain like a dead realm.

Black claw ghost threads slashed at the statue clone, causing the air to wail.

However, the attacks that were enough to tear through the sky and change the terrain were all blocked by a layer of red lotus barrier.

“I am Ananda of the Great Mountain Alliance. I am willing to preach the scriptures to the female Bodhisattva.”

Another few Buddhist and demonic palms struck out from behind, easily creating a few holes in the hair that covered the sky.

The woman behind the cloud of hair could only retreat in front of the Buddha Demon’s palm. If she was struck by it, she would suffer greatly.

It was not that she had never seen Buddhist cultivators before. Those ordinary Buddhist lights could at most resist her Resentment Threads.

However, how could a guy who did not look very devout be so strange?

The threads of resentment that she commanded the Ghost King Desolate Ground were completely countered by the statue clone without any temper.

After fighting for a long time, hearing the words “Great Mountain Alliance” stimulated her sensitive nerves again.

“Great Mountain Alliance? What’s your relationship with Jiang Li?”

To his surprise, that unknown female cultivator actually called out Jiang Li’s name.

However, how could Jiang Li not remember knowing such a powerful female cultivator?

“Benefactor Jiang Li is the Alliance Leader of the Great Mountain Region. Is the female Bodhisattva an old friend of the Alliance Leader?”

After hearing this name again, the blood-colored hair that covered the sky suddenly shrunk. Then, an exasperated female voice sounded.

“Damn it! Behave yourself!”

“Damn monk, I’ll remember you! Don’t let me hear that name again!”

As if something had happened to its body, the red veil hidden in its hair quickly fled into the distance.

The speed was very fast, it could be seen how anxious the other party was.

However, things did not go as she wished. A figure that she least wanted to see had unknowingly blocked her path of retreat.

“Miss Yang, why did you leave in a hurry after meeting an old friend?”

It was Jiang Li who had been hiding since the beginning.

The person in the Mu family of the Peach Forest was simply a Nine Nether clone that Jiang Li had created using the 30-year-old Longevity Peach.

It should not be a problem to deceive them for the time being.

His main body hid in the coffin and left the Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest with Elder Mu and the other two in order to lure the snake out of the hole.

Unexpectedly, it was not the graveyard’s Nine Nether Wood, but an old friend.

“It’s you!”

The woman’s expression changed drastically.

What she was most afraid of was not Jiang Li and the Buddha statue behind him.

It was the other will that had been awakened in her body after seeing Jiang Li.

“Don’t come out! You’re not allowed to come out!”

Two completely different expressions appeared, competing on the same face.

The full-strength resistance of the original owner of this body affected most of Yang Ruozhi’s mind. This body was not hers after all. After being affected, her combat strength plummeted.

At this moment, another ball of pale flames appeared in front of her.

Jiang Li waved his hand and shot out the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame, burning away Yang Ruozhi’s messy hair.

White and flames still burned along the hair towards the main body.

Yang Ruozhi screamed. The ghost qi that almost covered the sky instantly disappeared. This injured Ghost King was frightened back by Jiang Li’s Ghost Lantern Cold Flame.

Back when she was in the Ghost King Desolate Ground, she had seen this kind of flame. If she was at her peak, she would still have the confidence to deal with this cold flame, but it was best to save it now.

Yang Ruozhi retreated, and the eyes of the woman behind the red veil finally recovered their clarity.

However, snatching the body from a Ghost King was extremely difficult. Her eyes were filled with exhaustion, and she was unable to even maintain the simplest flight. After calling out “benefactor” in a daze, she fell.

Jiang Li flew forward and caught the thin figure wrapped in the red veil.

This person was the abandoned disciple of the Thousand Crane Tower that Jiang Li had rescued from the Ghost King Desolate Ground a few months ago, Mu Yulan.

For some reason, she entered and appeared here. It seemed that this unlucky female cultivator had experienced many things during this period of time.

He felt that the flesh and blood that had been cut off by the ghosts had already grown back.

The power in her body shocked even him.

At that time, she, who had not even formed a Golden Core, was already a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator.

This was the benefit of having a grandpa or an elder sister in her body.

That troublesome injury had already recovered so quickly. The progress of her cultivation was so terrifying.

The Ghost King, Yang Ruozhi, was a terrifying existence that surpassed Soul Formation cultivators.

Because she had been heavily injured in the chaotic battle, her strength had greatly decreased.

However, as long as she separated a small portion of her strength, it was enough to allow Mu Yulan’s cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.

Earlier, under Yang Ruozhi’s personal control, she even displayed an exaggerated strength that had reached the Soul Formation realm.

If not for Jiang Li restraining ghosts, it would have been very difficult to deal with them.

However, it was almost impossible to fix this rashly created Nascent Soul.

Yang Ruozhi, this big sister, was not very qualified. She was a little too ruthless.

If not for the fact that the cultivation method of the Thousand Crane Tower was neutral and gave Mu Yulan a firm foundation, at this moment, she would have been toyed to death by Yang Ruozhi.

Two hours later, Mu Yulan slowly woke up from her coma.

“Where am I?”

She had been suppressed by Yang Ruozhi for a long time and had been sleeping soundly. She still did not understand the situation.

She only felt warm currents flowing into her body from behind.

She turned around with difficulty and saw a face that she missed day and night but did not dare to see.

“Hmm… Benefactor! Why are you here… leave quickly! Leave quickly! I’ll hurt you!”

Mu Yulan was flustered. She knew her own situation.

After she separated from Jiang Li, she first destroyed a gathering place of rogue cultivators in the human trafficking industry.

After relying on the blood food to recover her injuries and a portion of her strength, she was bewitched by Yang Ruozhi and began to take revenge on the fleet of the Thousand Crane Tower.

At first, it was fine. The control of her body was still in her hands.

However, as the slaughter increased, Yang Ruozhi’s strength quickly recovered. Before she could react, she was already completely suppressed.

Some time ago, Mu Yulan stopped waking up.

It was as if she was dreaming as she watched Yang Ruozhi use her body to do all kinds of things that she had never dared to imagine.

For example, marry many strange men and suck them dry in a coffin.

During this process, Mu Yulan’s cultivation unknowingly broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, but she did not feel any joy.

If nothing unexpected happened, she might never wake up again.

This was until she met Jiang Li again.

The defeated Yang Ruozhi retreated into her body. Only then did Mu Yulan know that she had woken up. However, the first thing she thought of was that she was afraid that Jiang Li would be hurt by Yang Ruozhi.

“It’s fine. I don’t think she dares to come out now.”

Jiang Li raised his hand and released the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame again. White flames shone on the other party’s face.

Mu Yulan could hear Yang Ruozhi cursing in her body.

Only then did she recall the scene of Yang Ruozhi being defeated.

It turned out that Jiang Li had saved her again.

However, even the Ghost King was afraid of Jiang Li. Benefactor was indeed formidable.

“Benefactor saved my life twice, but I repaid your kindness with ingratitude. I really deserve to die!”

Mu Yulan turned around and knelt down towards Jiang Li. She raised her hand and intended to slap her forehead.

Firstly, it was to atone for Jiang Li’s sins. Secondly, she was afraid that Yang Ruozhi would snatch her body again. When the time came, she really could not believe what she would do.

However, the hand that had turned into a crane claw was stopped by Jiang Li. The powerful palm made her suicide stop in front of her forehead.

“So your name is Mu Yulan. That Yang Ruozhi must be that person from before.”

“Those were not your intentions. Don’t take it to heart.”

The name the other party had told him previously was Yang Ruozhi.

He pretended that he had just found out and smiled as he forgave her.

“Can you tell me why Yang Ruozhi suddenly attacked the Great Mountain Alliance’s flying ship?”

Although she was not the one controlling her body earlier, Mu Yulan still had a look of regret on her face. It was obvious that she had let Jiang Li down.

After adjusting her mood for a while, she recalled and spoke.

“I don’t remember very clearly what happened before. I only remember that my body is getting weaker by the day and my lifespan is about to end.”

“For some reason, Yang Ruozhi can’t easily separate from me, so she wants to obtain the Mu family’s Longevity Peach to extend our lifespan.”

“When she was snatching the invitation card earlier, she met a strange Daoist. He said that there is a spiritual fruit called the Immortal Peach in the core of the Mu family that can completely recover our injuries and strength.”

“That’s why they are temporarily working together.. He asked Yang Ruozhi to attack the flying ship in order to snatch the Divine Possession Girl.”
