Chapter 700: Master Hou Madam Went To the Sky Bridge Again To Set Up a Stall
Chapter 700: Today, I'll give you three lashes to send you on your way!
Qin Ruan glanced at Ling Feng, uncertainly saying, "I have a feeling that something is watching us."
Ling Feng followed her gaze.
With just one glance, she said, "Malevolent spirit."
"No," Qin Ruan denied.
If it were a malevolent spirit, she wouldn't have felt this underlying sense of danger.
Staring at them in the darkness wouldn't be something a malevolent spirit would do.
Ling Feng suggested, "Let's go and see."
Her tone was calm, and she spoke casually.
Qin Ruan's deep gaze stared at Ling Feng, as if trying to see through her thoughts from her facial expressions.
Suddenly, she smirked, "Good idea."
Before leaving, Qin Ruan instructed the people behind her, "Hou Qiang, Lin Hao, stay here and wait. Without my command, no one is allowed to go over."
"Not possible!" Lin Hao was the first to object.
He stared at Ling Feng unfriendly, treating her as if she were a malicious person.
Hou Qiang and Hou Zhi exchanged a glance and nodded, "Yes, madam."
Like Lin Hao, they also didn't agree with her going alone.
As for Ling Feng, they didn't even consider her human.
When the master ordered, as long as she was with the madam outside, except in cases of life-threatening situations, they would follow the madam's orders.
Even if they didn't agree, they still had to act accordingly.
Lin Hao's obstruction made Qin Ruan's gaze dim.
She stared deeply at him, "Aren't you afraid of being possessed by a ghost? Aren't you afraid of death? Then come with me."
After Qin Ruan finished speaking, she walked away, hand in hand with Ling Feng.
Lin Hao stood still, his face contorting.
Of course, he was afraid of the ghost.
Death? He had spent years on the brink of danger, so he wasn't afraid of death's arrival.
But as the saying goes, a good death is better than a bad life.
Lin Hao was very pragmatic, his feet glued to the ground without moving.
In the pitch-black alley, the cold night wind blew through, creating a feeling of eerie coldness.
Qin Ruan moved forward, stepping on the narrow path littered with garbage.
Ling Feng walked alongside her.
Halfway through, something flashed in front of them.
It was a black figure, moving at a very fast speed.
Qin Ruan asked the person next to her, "Did you see it clearly?"
Ling Feng's bright eyes blinked in the darkness, and she gently shook her head.
Realizing her delayed reaction, she said, "I didn't see it clearly, it was too fast."
It was so fast that she couldn't catch its traces.
Qin Ruan's lips curled into a smile, her laughter inexplicable, tinged with a hint of eagerness.
The children in her belly were still restless.
She didn't know why they were so active tonight, whether they were unhappy with the mother's busy activity or overly excited.
"Let's go," Qin Ruan said, quickening her pace.
Her shoes stepped on the dirty ground, creating a slight sticky sound, an uncomfortable noise in the otherwise silent air.
Ling Feng complained softly, "It stinks here."
Qin Ruan's tone remained calm, "There's a foul drainage ditch here. The households nearby use it to dispose of sewage, including human excreta."
Ling Feng stopped in her tracks, standing still.
Not hearing footsteps behind her, Qin Ruan turned to look at her.
"What's wrong?"
"I…" Ling Feng felt uncomfortable physically and mentally. She hesitated, "I want to go back."
Qin Ruan chuckled softly, "It's too late now."
She reached out to pull Ling Feng, gripping her hand and continuing forward.
In the dark, quiet alley, the overlapping sounds of footsteps echoed.
There was light ahead; they had already covered two-thirds of the distance.
Qin Ruan quickened her pace.
Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared out of nowhere, blocking their path.
Qin Ruan stared at the dark figure in front of her, her eyes emitting a bloodthirsty and cold light.
She let go of Ling Feng's hand and calmly said, "Here they come."
It was as if she had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Ling Feng sensed that the familiar aura of its kind emanated from the opposite shadow.
It was Huang Jushu!
"Such an alluring scent." A hoarse and chilling voice sounded from the figure in front of them.
In the darkness, Huang Jushu's sinister and eerie pupils were fixed on Qin Ruan's belly.
The two little things inside her were like a great tonic for it.
Treasures of the world, they would become gods once consumed.
After practicing for so many years, countless lives died at its hands, all in the pursuit of an easier path to cultivation.
Now the chance to ascend to heaven in a single step was right in front of it; how could it give up?
Sensing Huang Jushu's covetousness toward her children, Qin Ruan stared back, her deep eyes piercing through him, revealing her bottomless hatred.
She materialized a golden whip in her hand, exuding an overpowering aura.
Qin Ruan's voice was clear, "I am Qin Ruan, the guide of human spirits to the afterlife. You have committed countless crimes and won't even get a chance to be judged by the underworld. Today, I'll give you three lashes to send you on your way!"
With her words, she swung her golden whip.
The whip emitted a dazzling golden light, moving at an unstoppable speed, lashing toward the dark figure.
"Hiss..."
A sound similar to sizzling oil emerged from the opposite side.
Huang Jushu caught Qin Ruan's golden whip with his bare hands.
Seeing this, shock appeared in Qin Ruan's eyes, and her composed expression shattered due to this unexpected turn of events.
"Hiss..."
The dark aura of the whip's power burned Huang Jushu's humanoid body, causing the sizzling sound to continue.
The air was filled with the smell of burnt flesh, almost indistinguishable from the smell of fried meat.
This indicated that Huang Jushu was not impervious to the power of the underworld.
Qin Ruan tightened her grip on the golden whip and pulled.
This action yanked Huang Jushu, hidden in the darkness, right in front of her in an instant.
With the light emitted by the whip, Qin Ruan saw Huang Jushu's humanoid appearance clearly.
The word "ugly" couldn't even begin to describe his appearance.
Originally a tree symbolizing beauty and hope, it had stained itself with so much bloodshed and slaughter that it had become this grotesque form.
It could only be said that it was re
aping what it had sown.
Huang Jushu was right in front of her, its eyes filled with greed and killing intent, which Qin Ruan saw clearly.
She let go of the golden whip in her hand, and the whip twisted and turned with her will. It wrapped around Huang Jushu's neck at an incredible speed.
Qin Ruan took a step back, preparing herself to reduce Huang Jushu to ashes.
Suddenly, her delicate face froze, and she involuntarily bent her body.
Her eyes widened uncontrollably, her gaze slowly lowering.
The sight before her caused her to almost lose control of her body.
The world seemed to be spinning, her body couldn't stabilize, and she trembled uncontrollably.
The chilling aura of devouring surged from Qin Ruan, along with the fierce killing intent, spreading madly through the alley.
Her pupils, as clear as crystal, reflected the hand with both green and black hues, penetrating into her belly.
Qin Ruan clenched her fists, her blue veins popping out, her expression terrifying, and she looked like a bloodthirsty demon.
In a moment, the once black and white eyes turned completely black.
At that moment, Qin Ruan's eyes, filled with terror, emitted a sinister bloodthirstiness. Her entire body exuded a murderous intent, as if she had emerged from hell, a terrifying executioner.
