Chapter 1164
1164 devil blade’s choice
it was a white world of ice and snow.
the four humans and five beasts, with no one laughing or scolding, suddenly fell into a state of silence. they didn’t speak for nearly a minute.
in the end, jiang lingyue’s messy thoughts came together, and the messy blade aura became one. the word ‘determined’ appeared on her face.
“this is my fault.” the first sentence she said set the tone for the whole matter.
” i don’t ask for forgiveness, but i hope that you can give me a chance to make it up to you. ”
“compensation? how are you going to compensate me?” king kong glanced at bai wushang. he hesitated for a while before swallowing the question that was at the tip of his tongue.
however, how could that moment of hostility escape everyone’s perception?
bai wushang didn’t have the intention to bully the weak, and only sighed lightly.
the heavens made fools of people.
he had just experienced the great gan dynasty, where tens of millions of people died.
from his own experience, he also knew that it was unbearable pain for the survivors to have their families broken up and their children separated. they could cry until they fainted and lost consciousness.
although jiang lingqian didn’t want to kill anyone, she was the one who started the tragedy. as the person involved, she couldn’t escape responsibility.
” i heard that there’s a cave of mountain ghosts south of peach city. ”
” every year, thousands of masters in the nearby city-states would be killed. ”
” every ten years or so, there will be a large-scale beast tide, which puts huge pressure on the survival of peach city … ”
jiang lingyue opened her mouth slightly and said firmly, ”
“i can do a lot of things.”
“other than doing my best to compensate you, i will never leave the great buddha until i exterminate the mountain ghost clan.”
“mountain ghost cave?” thousand-hands and king kong looked at each other, and their expressions changed.
the great buddha dynasty had a vast territory and a vast terrain.
however, there were two or three forbidden areas that even the lord buddha had a headache over.
the mountain ghost cave was undeniably a well-known figure.
it was said that there were three “mother mountain ghost empresses” living there. they were brutal and cunning.
their combat power was not too strong. the three of them together would definitely not be able to withstand the power of the lord buddha alone.
however, the environment in the cave was complex, and it was covered with deadly poisonous gas. even the king of holy beasts didn’t dare to go completely deep into the bottom.
the most troublesome part was the mother mountain ghost’s reproductive ability.
every year, they would be able to nurture 100000 mountain ghosts. with a little bit of accumulation, they would become a force that could not be ignored.
thousand hands and vajra would often go there to take turns.
this was because if the lord was not arranged to guard the cave, the surrounding cities would definitely suffer heavy casualties.
“since you’re willing to make such a promise, i think the lord buddha … has already explained it!”
king kong’s tone was muffled, and his attitude took a 180-degree turn. he sighed,
” but … unless the pope helps you, i think you’ll be shackled for the rest of your life, forever imprisoned in the territory of the great buddha. ”
” the cave of the mountain ghost … will only be more difficult to deal with than you think. there will be no end to the killing and destruction. there will be one beast tide after another. every time a beast tide occurs, the lives of soldiers and pets will be taken … ”
“the pope?” jiang lingyue glanced at bai wushang, then at the six-winged sword angel.
she seemed to be deep in thought, but her tone was crisp and clear. without thinking, she said, ”
“i’ve caused the death of many people. the dead are already dead, and there’s nothing i can do to reverse the situation.”
” clearing the cave of mountain ghosts is not only to wash away my sins, but also to improve the living environment of the people of peach city and reduce casualties from another perspective. ”
“this is my business, i should bear the responsibility.”
“if i can’t do it, then it’s my fate to be trapped in the great buddha for the rest of my life,”
“ai, lady jiang is too kind.” thousand-hands sighed. ” with the pope as a witness, i believe you will fulfill your promise. ”
” but i’m going off topic. even if you keep your promise, i can’t guarantee that everyone in peach city will understand and will be willing to let go of their grudges. ”
” yes … ” jiang lingyue nodded. ” i’ll bear all the consequences. ”
“alright,” he said. thousand hands cupped his fists and left on his thunder horn elk. ” since the two of you are old friends, you may have something important to discuss with us. we won’t stay here any longer. let’s go deal with the aftermath. ”
“if lady jiang wants to find us, you can go to the city lord’s mansion … goodbye.”
“farewell.” vajra also cupped his hands and did not say anything more.
jiang lingyue had frozen 100000 civilians to death this time.
however, when asked about the residents of peach blossom city, the mountain ghost cave, which was a hundred miles away, was still their number one enemy.
this belief had been passed down from his father and ancestors.
the mountain ghost cave had existed for at least 1500 years. it had always been a poisonous thorn in people’s hearts.
if someone could remove it.
merits offset faults, it could indeed gain the recognition of most people.
as for the remaining few, what would they think? would they take revenge on jiang lingyun?
that was a different matter.
“boom boom boom!”
the six-eyed vajra beneath him hurriedly strode forward and disappeared in the direction he came from.
jiang lingyue let out a sigh of relief and patted the big fox’s head. she turned around and laughed at herself.
” from today onwards, i’m a sinner. i have no freedom and no sense of self. ”
“to you, it’s an undeserved disaster.” bai wushang shook his head and took out some items from his storage ring.
” i don’t have a way to cure your disease for the time being. ”
“however, just because it can’t cure the root of the problem doesn’t mean it can’t cure the symptoms.”
” this is a drop of blood essence from the king of the six-winged seraphim, gabriel. when the next ice tide comes, eat it. it should be able to block an explosion. ”
” also, this is the flaming ice dragon’s leather armor. it can be used for both ice and fire. not only does it provide defense, but it can also nourish the body and stabilize the mind. it’s good for wearing it for a long time. ”
” i also have some information scrolls on soldier beasts. some of them are related to ‘squire’. perhaps they can be of reference value to you. they can help you to truly revive the ice wheel saber when you become a saint venerable … ”
“these are not ordinary things.” jiang lingyue looked at it for a long time before she muttered to herself, ”
“many people spend their entire lives and still can’t see or touch it.”
“and you … gave it to me without changing your expression?”
“it’s fate that we met.” bai wushang smiled faintly, ” i don’t want to look back a thousand years later and see my friends and relatives of the same generation die one by one. ”
“if you don’t deserve it, then you can continue to owe me.”
“anyway, with your personality, i saved your life today, so you must be thinking of how to repay me.”
“debts don’t weigh on one’s body, just pile them up.”
“grumble! ji gu!” the little rabbit waved its claws and continued to add on.
jiang lingyue remained silent.
after ten seconds of silence, her eyes wandered between the sword angel and bai wushang. in the end, she couldn’t hold back her curiosity and hesitantly asked, ”
” you are now … a saint venerable? ”
“the so-called” pope “is referring to the holy court?”
” i haven’t seen you for thirty years, and your body has been turned upside down. you’ve actually changed so much? ”
