Chapter 417 The Gluttonous Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Xia Dongqing witnessed a beautiful woman licking her lips and eating her own flesh with a look of pure enjoyment on her face.

In the end, he ate himself until only his head remained, without realizing it.

This was so terrifying that it gave Xia Dongqing a huge fright.

It turns out this is a horrifying place where customers cut off their own flesh and then cook it into food for them to eat.

Dongqing was terrified and was about to leave when he was grabbed by the Fifth Young Master.

The Fifth Prince said his eyes were very special and that he wanted to eat them.

At the critical moment, Zhao Li appeared and exposed the true colors of the Fifth Prince.

It turns out that this Fifth Young Master is none other than the infamous Taotie.

One of the legendary nine sons of the dragon, a super glutton, and infamous for his ferocity.

Faced with Zhao Li and Xia Dongqing's questioning, the Fifth Prince said that he was not cruel, and that the cruelest thing was that humans ate everything.

Xia Dongqing and the others could not refute it, because humans were indeed more ferocious than Taotie, having devoured many species to extinction, and their cruel methods of torture were countless.

Although the people here should all be attributed to those nobles, wealthy merchants, and other superiors.

After all, for ordinary people, let alone delicacies like monkey brains, even eating beef is a luxury.

Wang Xiaoya used heavenly thunder to strike, and Zhao Li threatened the Fifth Prince by saying that the Dragon King wanted to capture Taotie.

In the end, the cunning Fifth Prince saw through their scheme.

Just as the Fifth Young Master was about to go berserk and devour everyone, Chen Hong appeared in time.

"Haha, the mythical beast Taotie, I'm very interested in it."

Chen Hong's voice boomed like thunder, as if 3D surround sound came from all directions.

The fifth young master was startled, looked around, and said in a slightly slurred voice through his buck teeth:
"Who! Who is it?"

"Who is this master who is playing tricks on my Fifth Young Master?"

"Show yourself quickly, and let's have a showdown."

"I, Taotie, wasn't raised by fear, I was raised by eating."

"Humph!"

Chen Hong snorted coldly and slapped down with his palm. The golden palm of Tathagata God smeared Taotie's face and suppressed him in a palm-sized spatial cage.

When Chen Hong appeared, Taotie was horrified to see his enormous, mountain-like face, feeling much like Sun Wukong being unable to escape the Buddha's five-finger mountain.

Clearly, it wasn't Chen Hong who grew bigger, but the Taotie that shrank and was suppressed by Chen Hong in one palm.

Taotie tried to escape, but no matter how it flew or tried to jump through space, it couldn't escape Chen Hong's grasp.

The Tathagata Palm is no joke; in Chen Hong's hands, it has been developed to possess a power reminiscent of gods and demons.

The little Taotie was nothing more than a creature that hid its head and tail among the gods, secretly indulging in some delicacies. It had no great supernatural powers and was not some mythical, primordial Taotie from a fantasy world. Naturally, it could not escape Chen Hong's suppression.

Despite trying every trick in the book, he still couldn't escape the gluttonous beast's clutches, so he had no choice but to play to his strengths and become all smiles and harmless.

The Fifth Young Master rubbed his hands together, revealing a buck-toothed grin:
"Hahaha, great master, great master, I am just a little glutton, eating some snacks, I was a bit greedy."

I don't know where I offended the great deity and committed a sin.

No matter what the great master wants, I will rack my brains and sell my possessions to atone for my sins.

Please, sir, forgive my petty offense and let me go.

"Hmm?" Chen Hong made a nasal sound.

The fifth young master was immediately terrified and trembled, quickly pulling out many items.

Among the sights were precious minerals, corals, jade, pearls, gold and jewels, ancient medicinal herbs, rare spiritual plants, and even magical artifacts, magic treasures, and pills. Countless treasures were pulled out as if they were free.

"Great God, I don't have much savings, I'm offering it all to you, please forgive me."

"You're telling me this is because you don't have much savings?" Looking at the mountain of rare and precious items, Chen Hong couldn't help but twitch his lips.

This Taotie truly lives up to its reputation as an ancient monster that has survived from ancient times; it certainly has a considerable collection of treasures.

And what's with this obsequious, fawning, and sycophantic attitude of yours as soon as things look bad?
Why do I always feel that you are incredibly skilled and smooth?

This gluttonous beast is far too pragmatic.

Could this be the legendary drug addict Wei Junjie?

Chen Hong converted the Fifth Prince into his slave and looted all of his millennia-old collection.

They then scanned the true structure of the Fifth Prince's Taotie form, thoroughly analyzed all the secrets of the Taotie divine beast, obtained the Taotie divine beast template, and were able to mass-produce Taotie divine beasts in their own blessed land space.

Seeing the infamous Taotie, whose mere name was enough to frighten Zhao Li into kneeling respectfully, suddenly become Chen Hong's dog, Xia Dongqing and Zhao Li trembled with fear.

This master is terrifying. He can kill the ancient ferocious beast Taotie in one move, twisting its mind and enslaving it in the blink of an eye.

This is terrifying, more terrifying than killing a person.

One can imagine that the rest of Taotie's life would be spent being constantly exploited for its remaining value, making it difficult for it to even die.

Most importantly, he was very happy about it, considering it an honor, an effort, and a step forward.

Because of his research on the Taotie, Chen Hong's innate divine ability, [Devouring Heaven and Earth], has become even more powerful, with a greater devouring efficiency.

Chen Hong's bloodline also inherited the advantages of the Taotie mythical beast, becoming even more powerful. That day, Xia Dongqing woke up to find herself transformed into a man named Zhao Li, the big boss of a company.

He has a beautiful pregnant wife named Yin Yin, and he also frequently has affairs with his secretary.

Xia Dongqing couldn't remember who he was, but everything felt unfamiliar until he came to the 444 convenience store and found a night shift clerk named Xia Dongqing.

The waiter told him that he was an orphan but had eyes that could see ghosts.

Xia Dongqing came to the orphanage to search for her memories and finally remembered everything.

It turns out that I was blind when I was a child, but I have a younger sister who can see ghosts.

Later, his parents and sister all died in a car accident.

Dongqing met a man named Zhao Li at the orphanage. Zhao Li allowed his sister to enter his body, and from then on, he could see, but he also became a person with the ability to see ghosts.

Xia Dongqing went to the convenience store to argue with Zhao Li, and entered another world through the door of the convenience store's warehouse.

There, Wang Xiaoya was looking at a bottle and told Dongqing that everything that had just happened was in this bottle.

This made Holly feel like it was all a dream, like a bubble, like everything was fake, like the world was inside a bottle?

Xia Dongqing felt confused; the truth of everything was shrouded in mystery.

He died in a car accident, his parents and sister died, and he was blind. It was only after his sister entered his body that he was able to see again, thus gaining the ability to see ghosts.

Xia Dongqing was confused by everything, completely unable to understand its meaning, and didn't even know if what he was experiencing was real or fake, or if he was a human or a ghost.

Wang Xiaoya and Zhao Li took Dong Qing to the heavens and told him that they were actually the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and a ghost messenger, and that they would come to find him again in the future.

Xia Dongqing was completely bewildered. What was this Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden and ghost messengers? How did they suddenly turn into mythology?
Isn't my world just an ordinary modern world?

It might have a ghostly element, but aren't ghosts and such normal?

Xia Dongqing suddenly woke up from her dream, as if nothing had happened.

It felt like a dream, and everything was an illusion.

Zhao Li, I can't tell them apart, I really can't!

Xia Dongqing was drenched in sweat, his eyes flashing with a scarlet light, and he was becoming a little neurotic.

Xia Dongqing opened her email and received a job offer from Convenience Store No. 444.

As if by reincarnation, Xia Dongqing became an ordinary university graduate student.

I attend classes and do research during the day, and work at the 444 convenience store at night to earn a living.

Unlike before, this time, there was no Zhao Li, no Wang Xiaoya. It was as if the door to the extraordinary world had suddenly closed on him, and life had become very ordinary.

The days passed like this.

Until one day, a rumor began to circulate on campus that the graduate student dormitory was "haunted".

Holly lives in this building, and on the night of the full moon, mysterious figures appear one by one.

In Holly's eyes, who is human and who is ghost?

Just as Xia Dongqing was attacked by a ghost and was in danger, Xuan Nu appeared in time.

Dongqing remembered what Zhao Li had once told him: "I will come to find you when the moon turns red."

Xuan Nu said to Dong Qing, "On the appointed day of the Red Moon, Zhao Li did not come as promised. Something must have happened to him."

Dongqing was brutally murdered, and Xuan Nu used the "blood of the heavenly maiden" to forcibly leave Dongqing's soul in his body so that he could continue to live. Finding Zhao Li became the top priority.

When the two finally found Zhao Li, who was stranded in a mental hospital, they discovered that Zhao Li had become mentally unstable, turning into a sissy lunatic dressed in a mental hospital gown, with delicate fingers and a bow tie, and was unable to help Dong Qing.

Upon closer inspection of the mental hospital, Dongqing and Xuannu discovered that a powerful and evil force was entrenched within this ancient institution.

Every night, a mysterious group of Japanese soldiers would appear in the corridor, and patients would be brutally murdered one after another.

Jiutian Xuannv Ya and Xia Dongqing wanted to steal Zhao Li from the mental hospital to wake him up and help Xia Dongqing be resurrected.

Unexpectedly, Holly was transported to the spring of 1938.

Xia Dongqing encounters Da Xue, a singer who is being held in a hospital by the Japanese. Da Xue tells Dongqing the secret of this mental hospital.

The singer Da Xue asked Xia Dongqing to take something to the outside world.

"You absolutely must get this out. You're a student, you must know reporters, maybe even foreign ones."

You must tell them everything I've seen here. Let the imperial court know, let the people know.

Xia Dongqing flipped through the booklet handed to him by the singer, looking at the various illustrations of human experiments recorded inside, while listening to the singer's story.

"I can't read, so I just draw what I see."

They kill Chinese people every day.

They lured Chinese patients who couldn't afford medical treatment in and then disemboweled them.

They removed all the internal organs and then wrote down a lot of things in a notebook.

They even prey on children.

Listening to the singer's story, Xia Dongqing's expression turned grave, and he spoke with difficulty:
"It was a human experiment."
