New and dark light years

Chapter 337 The Empress is Angry

As a spirit hunter, Li Lin had seen many strange and unusual things.

The piecing together of the human head and the skeleton did not frighten him.

He asked, rather strangely, "The living dead?"

Normally, a living person is a living person, a dead person is a dead person, and a charlatan is a charlatan.

The idea of ​​living dead is somewhat contradictory.

Li Yanjing explained, "The line between the living and the dead is actually not very clear. In Buddhist terms, emptiness and form arise from the mind; they appear as soon as a thought arises. This woman is like that now; if you think she is alive, she is alive; if you think she is dead, she is dead."

Li Lin understood a little; it turned out to be a quantum superposition state.

Wen Bi leaned closer, cupped his hands in greeting, and asked, "What does this mean?"

“That is… if you think she is alive, then when you touch her, she will have the body of a living person,” Li Yanjing said. “If you think she is dead, you can only touch the bones on her body.”

Wen Bi's expression changed drastically: "I can only feel her bones. But my servants all say... that the lady has flesh and blood."

At this moment, his face showed even more regret.

Then he stared straight at the woman in front of him, and after a long while, he said dejectedly, "I still can't see her in good condition."

Hearing the voice, the woman turned around and said with a smile, "Sir, you have a guest, but you didn't tell me in advance so I could have made preparations."

Wen Bi sighed: "This is County Commandant Li, he is a hunter of spirits."

"Have you finally made up your mind?" the woman asked with a smile.

Wen Bi nodded gently, his face full of sorrow: "I'm sorry."

Li Lin looked at Wen Bi with a puzzled expression.

Wen Bi cupped his hands and said, "Please, Kun Ge, escort my wife on her way."

Li Lin was stunned for a moment: "You mean, you want me to kill her!"

"Yes." Wen Bi almost cried out, "Please, Kun Ge, help me."

Li Lin glanced at the woman not far away, then at Wen Bi, and said, "No, I can't do it."

"Why?"

“Two reasons,” Li Lin said. “First, she has never harmed anyone. Second, if I kill her, you will eventually hate me, and we won’t even be able to be friends anymore.”

"Won't……"

“You can’t guarantee it, and neither can I,” Li Lin said firmly. “You should look for other strangers, not me.”

Li Yanjing asked, "Why did you kill her... If you had just kept her alive, maybe one day she would have become like me, with flesh and blood, and even supernatural powers. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

"I can't take it!" Wen Bi finally burst into tears: "She's having affairs with men every day, I can't accept it."

The woman opposite him looked distressed.

Li Yanjing was stunned for a moment, then walked over to the woman and circled around her.

Then take a closer look at the other person's body.

After a while, Li Yanjing came back and whispered, "There's something strange about her. It seems to be a special kind of yang-absorbing technique. If there isn't enough yang energy, she will lose her mind."

Although the sound was soft, everyone around heard it.

Wen Bi wiped away his tears.

The skeletal woman's face was full of helplessness: "I have no idea what I did, I only have vague memories. I am no longer a virgin, and I should have committed suicide, but I tried everything and still couldn't die. Moreover, every time I was injured, I would lose consciousness, and when I regained consciousness, another man would be taken advantage of by me. Isn't this a kind of torture?"

Wen Bi covered his face with both hands.

Li Lin sighed helplessly.

Li Yanjing glanced at Li Lin, then hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Li Lin cupped his hands and said, "Zhijie, I really can't help with this."

Wen Bi wiped away his tears, bent down, and clasped his hands in his sleeves: "I was too demanding of you."

Just as Li Lin was about to leave, the skeletal woman suddenly said, "My lord, since County Magistrate Li is unwilling to kill me, shall I leave? Staying here will only add to your sorrow."

"No." Wen Bi looked at her: "You were born a member of the Wen family, and you will die a ghost of the Wen family."

The skeleton woman smiled bitterly.

Upon hearing this, Li Yanjing couldn't help but say, "Actually, there is a way. Magistrate Wen, you cultivate the Yang Technique. As long as you become a fourth-rank martial artist, you can use your primordial Yang to regulate her body, and then you can eliminate the Yin magic in her body."

"Really?" Wen Bi was somewhat delighted, but then his expression turned sour. "I don't have the talent to practice martial arts, and... even if I had the Supreme Yang Technique, how long would it take me to reach the fourth rank of martial artist? At least ten years. And these days, she still has to go to collect Yang energy every day."

Thinking of that scenario, Wen Bi felt her heart breaking.

At this moment, Li Yanjing finally couldn't hold back anymore. She said, "Husband, give her a drop of blood essence. It can suppress her desires for at least half a year. This person is too pitiful. Please help her."

"Is my blood and energy effective?"

"Of course, your blood energy has the effect of breaking spells."

Upon hearing their conversation, Wen Bi suddenly looked at Li Lin, then bowed deeply to the ground, saying, "I beg Kun Ge for help. I will never forget your great kindness."

Li Lin thought about it and felt that a drop of blood essence didn't seem to be a big problem, and since it only took half a year to get one drop, he nodded.

Li Lin walked towards the skeletal woman and asked, "Do you understand the art of blood-sucking?"

"Understood!" The skeletal woman nodded.

Li Lin extended his left hand.

The woman approached, first sniffing the air, then a red glint flashed in her eyes, and her face was full of joy.

Then she opened her mouth. But at that moment, space distorted, and a huge cyan scale tail swept down from the sky, directly sending the skeletal woman flying. She crashed into a wall not far away, almost embedding herself in it.

Li Lin looked at the familiar tail and said, "Tree Fairy, please don't be angry!"

Li Yanjing froze for a moment, her body trembling.

Then the snake's tail lashed out again, sending Li Yanjing flying.

This time, Li Yanjing was also sent flying backwards.

Logically speaking, Li Yanjing had been slapped away by the Tree Fairy Goddess quite a few times, but she had never been seriously injured before.

But this time was different. The Tree Fairy seemed to be really angry. She exerted all her strength, and Li Yan was sent flying several feet away, crashing into a rockery and falling to the ground.

When she got up, she was clutching her chest and vomiting blood.

“Madam, I know I was wrong…” Li Yanjing knelt down and looked at the snake tail in horror, saying, “I only felt pity for lovers who were living in such pain and torment.”

The long tail swung around, hooking up the skeletal woman embedded in the wall and lifting her into the air.

Then they wrapped the skeletal woman up in circles.

The multicolored argon gas enveloped the skeletal woman, making her completely invisible.

Then came screams and the cracking sound of bones breaking.

After a short while, the snake's tail loosened, and the argon gas disappeared.

The bones had shattered into pieces, leaving only a woman's head falling from the sky.

"Qing'er!" Wen Bi shouted and rushed over, holding the woman's head in his arms.

The head wasn't dead; it's just that her eyes were much more lively now.

"I feel better now, and I don't have that feeling of wanting to find a man anymore."

Wen Bi laughed and cried at the same time: "You don't even have a body anymore, so you definitely don't want to find a man."

The blue snake tail gradually disappeared.

Li Yanjing remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to get up.

Li Lin walked over and tried to help him up.

Li Yanjing, however, dared not.

Li Lin said, "Zhe'er will be my wife in the future, and she has to listen to me. Get up."

Only when Li Lin used the power of the family head did Li Yanjing dare to get up.

Then she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her expression looking very... ashamed.

Li Lin asked, "Why did the Tree Spirit whip you... so hard?"

She had hit Li Yanjing quite a few times before, but it was mostly just playful teasing. Now, she was clearly using more force.

“My wife privately instructed me not to reveal the effects of my husband’s blood energy,” Li Yanjing said in a very soft voice. “I had promised before, and now that I’ve broken my promise, of course she’s angry. Besides, this won’t do my husband any good, and it might even cause other trouble.”

Li Lin said, "But I've also had my blood drained by other monsters... like that Liu Shen."

“That’s different. You’re the head of the family and the future husband of the eldest daughter-in-law. Of course she won’t scold you for whatever you do; she’ll only protect you.” Li Yanjing said in a matter-of-fact tone, “I’m just a concubine. The fact that she didn’t beat me to death is already a great favor.”

It turned out to be the case.

Li Lin understood. He walked over and said, "Zhijie, how about we leave things as they are tonight?"

Wen Bi also knew the meaning of the snake's tail. He nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your help tonight, Brother Kun. Qing'er seems to be much better."

"If you practice the Yin Qi Heart Sutra more often, you can restore your body and be free from the effects of that vicious magic."

Wen Bi was taken aback: "Is the Tree Fairy helping Qing'er?"

“Of course!” Li Yanjing snorted and said, “Madam… the Tree Fairy Goddess’s intervention is naturally different.”

"Madam..." Wen Bi looked at Li Lin with admiration.

He increasingly felt that he was no match for Li Lin.

Li Lin smiled and said, "Then we'll head back first..."

But at that moment, a silver sword descended from the moonlight.

Li Lin and Li Yanjing reacted very quickly, immediately preparing for a state of alert.

But the silver sword had no intention of harming anyone; instead, it was plunged directly into the center of the courtyard, and then a sound came from the hilt.

"Who broke my technique of creating a body from filth?!"

The voice was old and carried an incredulous tone.

Li Lin didn't say anything.

Wen Bi asked with delight, "Is it Mr. Wild Taoist?"

"That voice... is it the Wen family boy?"

"It's me! It's me!"

"I heard you've become an official, that's good. I sense that your wife's martial arts technique has been broken; is someone targeting you two?"

“Master Ye Daoren, I am alright, though I have no body, but I seem to still be alive.”

"Without a body, who destroyed your body yet preserved your soul? So remarkable! Tell me quickly..." The voice emanating from the sword hilt trailed off, tinged with anger: "Damn it, we're running out of spiritual energy wine! Wen family brat, you wait, I'm coming to Southern Xinjiang to find you right now. You need to tell me properly what happened..."

At this point, the silver sword turned into dust and slowly disappeared.
