Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 311
Sheng Nuan suddenly saw an illusion appear before her eyes. In the illusion, she could still make out that it was Bibo City. The people in the city were crying out miserably, and countless torches were lit densely along the city walls.
“Release the arrows!”
The sound of arrows piercing through the air whistled by, and roars came from outside the city.
Because it was an illusion, Sheng Nuan could clearly see that on the wasteland outside the city, countless monsters were surging like a tide.
They were roughly humanoid but leaped on all fours like beasts. Their bodies were covered with cyan-green ulcers, oozing dark green pus and bl00d. They opened their mouths, revealing sharp teeth.
“We can’t hold them off! We can’t hold them off… Heavens, who will save us…”
“Help! Help!”
The cries for help from adults, the helpless wails of children, flames reaching the sky.
“Lord City Master, please escape quickly. We can’t hold them off.” A guard on the city wall cried to the man in blue brocade robes, “If you don’t flee now, it will be too late.”
The man in blue brocade slowly turned to look at the citizens running and crying in the city, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.
“I, Yan Xuan, am the City Master of Bibo City. My ancestors have been supported by the city folk for generations. Now, at this moment of crisis, how can I abandon the city and flee, disregarding millions of citizens!”
City Master Yan Xuan seemed to have made an extremely difficult and painful decision in an instant. He closed his eyes, the veins on his forehead throbbing, then said word by word, “Light the fire… activate the sacrificial array!”
The surrounding guards also had reddened eyes, then knelt down and kowtowed heavily. “This subordinate obeys!”
The scene flashed, and Sheng Nuan saw a young girl in red clothes being bound by iron chains, her eyes full of terror and tears, crying out in disbelief.
“Yan Lang, Yan Lang, save me…”
“Yan Lang, don’t! Please don’t…”
On the city wall, the young man in blue did not look at her, his eyes bloodshot, chanting incantations word by word.
“…Nine Infants Sacrificial Formation, exterminate the evil spirits!”
Amid heart-wrenching cries, the girl in red was thrown into a large cauldron burning with flames. In the next moment, flames soared to the sky. A nine-headed monster screamed miserably, trying to break free, but was then engulfed by the blazing flames and the formation in the cauldron… At the same time, golden formation patterns slowly appeared beneath Bibo City.
The Plague Ghosts climbing the city walls sensed something was wrong and turned to escape, but it was too late. A golden formation roared as it enveloped the entire Bibo City. The Plague Ghosts within the formation screamed miserably and turned into dust.
On the city wall, the man in blue closed his eyes. In his clenched fist, his nails dug deep into his palm, bl00d dripping continuously.
He knew she was the evil Nine Infants1, but she was sincere to him… From their first encounter in the peach forest to pledging their lives to each other, he had truly fallen in love.
But in the end, he sacrificed her in the formation to save the people of the city…
The illusion dissipated, but the screams and cries seemed to still linger in the ears.
Customer service spoke up to remind: “Host, that Nine Infants was turned into a demon ghost by the sacrificial formation and suppressed for nearly a thousand years. Now it’s back for revenge… Lian Yin wants to save people, but there might be a fierce battle. She is already here.”
In the next moment, it was as if a filter had been added before Sheng Nuan’s eyes. Then she saw Lian Yin standing there, less than one zhang2 behind him, a giant nine-headed bird’s shadow baring its fangs and claws, nine heads raised up, rushing straight towards Lian Yin.
Sheng Nuan exclaimed urgently, “Your Lordship, be careful!”
Almost at the same time, Lian Yin turned around and struck out with his palm… The Nine Infants ghost collided with the dark golden magic formation, let out an angry roar, and revealed its true form, its whole body shrouded in dark green cursed poison.
“It was you who did this,” Lian Yin said calmly.
Nine Infants raised its head and let out a sharp cry, “I have struggled in hell for nearly a thousand years, refining all the Plague Ghosts. Now that I have returned to the world, I will make Yan Xuan, and this Bibo City, pay back everything they owe me!”
Before the words had finished, the enormous nine-headed bird attacked Lian Yin once again…
Lian Yin flipped his wrist, and a black long sword appeared. He floated lightly backward and slashed out, immediately cutting off one of the heads.
Nine Infants let out an angry cry, then emitted a sinister laugh. In the next instant, the dark green cursed poison on its body surged towards that locust tree.
“I know you, the Tiancheng Lord of Buzhou Mountain… Others fear you, but I don’t. Perhaps I’m not your match, but before that, I’ll drag this entire city to be buried with me, hahaha…”
Nine Infants laughed eerily, and the cursed poison rapidly surged towards the locust tree. Once it passed through the locust tree to reach the mortal realm, those citizens outside wouldn’t last even a moment.
Sheng Nuan was right next to the locust tree. Seeing the cursed poison rushing towards her, she broke out in cold sweat and shouted, “Your Lordship…”
At the moment she cried out, Lian Yin had already appeared in front of her, blocking all the cursed poison.
This was the Netherworld, and the cursed poison struggled but could not dissipate. Lian Yin immediately frowned.
Nine Infants laughed heartily, “Don’t you have the Black Lotus Karmic Fire? The Karmic Fire can burn away these cursed poisons. Why don’t you give it a try?”
Lian Yin ignored Nine Infants’ provocation.
This passage connecting to the Netherworld was forcibly opened by Nine Infants using the soul power of all the citizens of Bibo City, connecting to the souls of every person in Bibo City… If he were to ignite a fire, it would indeed kill Nine Infants. However, all the people of Bibo City would also have their souls scattered.
In the next moment, Lian Yin formed a seal with one hand and instantly absorbed all those cursed poisons into his own body.
His complexion seemed to have paled a bit, but his face remained calm. He raised his sword again and dashed towards Nine Infants…
Nine Infants was no match for Lian Yin at all. Within a few breaths, all nine heads were cut off… Lian Yin had also absorbed quite a bit of cursed poison and looked unwell.
But seeing the last head of Nine Infants being cut off, it did not dissipate. Its body that fell to the ground began to squirm, then turned into a snake-like monster, still emitting Nine Infants’ voice.
“This body was refined from their souls by me. Come on, Tiancheng Lord, keep killing, hahaha…”
That monstrous snake was covered with faces, men and women, old and young, all crying out in terror.
“Save us.”
“Help…”
Sheng Nuan couldn’t help but hold her breath, almost unable to resist grabbing a knife and rushing up. In the next instant, she saw Lian Yin raise his sword and slash again.
That monstrous snake was indeed formed from the innocent souls of the city’s people. If it was killed, those people would die. But if they delayed any longer, Lian Yin couldn’t indefinitely absorb those cursed poisons into himself. Outside were tens of thousands of lives.
Sheng Nuan saw that Lian Yin faced the faces on the monstrous snake that kept crying and pleading for help, and expressionlessly swung his sword…
Amid the continuous screams, the body of the monstrous snake became increasingly thin, struggling to counterattack while cursing at the same time.
“Yan Xuan betrayed me. If he hadn’t already reincarnated, I would have ground his bones to dust…”
“They turned me into ashes just to save themselves. Why can’t I take revenge?”
“What kind of immortal lord or walker are you? Aren’t you now slaughtering the innocent just like me? Haha…”
Nine Infants’ voice was extremely sharp, but Lian Yin’s expression did not change in the slightest.
It was true that she had been betrayed and died tragically, but now she wanted to kill tens of thousands of people as well.
Lian Yin’s long sword kept slashing down… until he saw a tender young face.
A boy who looked no more than three or four years old was crying in terror, but when he saw Lian Yin’s sword, he suddenly stopped crying and sobbed while begging, “Master, please tell my mother, I… I won’t be naughty anymore. Tell her not to leave me there alone, I’m scared…”
Lian Yin’s hand movements paused slightly, his lips pressed into a thin line. Because he had absorbed too much cursed poison into his body, his pupils showed a faint dark green.
At that instant, the pitiful little boy suddenly grinned with a ferocious smile. In a flash, the monstrous snake, without any warning, charged towards the locust tree beside Sheng Nuan.
Nine Infants wanted to destroy the passage between Yin and Yang3, trapping Lian Yin in the Netherworld…
Seeing the monstrous snake rushing over, Sheng Nuan suddenly stepped forward to block in front of the locust tree.
Lian Yin’s long sword flew out of his hand and flew towards that direction…
Suddenly, a protective layer like an eggshell appeared around Sheng Nuan, but it was shattered instantly by the monstrous snake’s collision. Then she was swept up in a mass of cursed poison and flung backward.
But precisely because of that moment’s obstruction, the long sword pierced straight through the monstrous snake… Just before destroying the exit, the monstrous snake let out an unwilling roar, then vanished into smoke.
Sheng Nuan struggled to get up from the ground but couldn’t. Then she saw Lian Yin squat down in front of her.
“Do you think you have several lives? Nine Infants is an ancient great demon, and you dare to block it!” It was that gentle-tempered heavenly soul.
Sheng Nuan looked at him and said weakly in a low voice, “Your Lordship has taken on so much cursed poison for the citizens. I’m afraid Your Lordship will be trapped here and won’t be able to hold on.”
Look at that, such a loyal and obedient spiritual pet…
Lian Yin was slightly stunned, then couldn’t help but laugh, “Reckless… With your little cultivation, you’re still worrying about me.”
Sheng Nuan tried hard to smile at him, but her body went limp, her vision went black, and she fainted just like that.
Her body fainted, but her consciousness was still clear. She made a bet with customer service: “He’ll carry me in his arms.”
Customer service didn’t believe it: “I think he’ll carry you by grabbing.”
Sheng Nuan insisted: “In his arms…”
In the next moment, Lian Yin paused silently for a moment, then reached out and lifted the little demon who had fainted on the ground, holding her horizontally in his arms.
To leave the Netherworld required the earthly soul. Lian Yin blinked, his gaze suddenly turning cold, and subconsciously was about to throw the little demon in his hand away.
The voice in his sea of consciousness immediately shouted urgently, “Don’t throw her! What if such a sensible and considerate little demon gets hurt from falling?”
Lian Yin’s expression was cold. He looked down at the little demon with a pale face leaning pitifully in his arms, frowned slightly, then stepped forward and disappeared instantly from where he was…
