The villain daughter did all kinds of things

Because the undead Ayahime was relatively weak, even a cautious person like Ye Bufan didn't take her seriously at first.

It wasn't until Emerald transferred a large amount of her magic power to the undead Aya, and Aya also took out a microphone-like magical device, that Ye Bufan, who was hiding inside the Demon-Slaying Bell, became alert, but it was already too late.

Ye Bufan was already severely injured by the sneak attacks of the Withering Touch and the Death Finger. The sense of security that the Demon-Slaying Bell gave him earlier made him relax a bit. Then, he was racking his brains to persuade Amelie, so his body was completely out of the fighting state.

So when Ye Bufan finally realized the danger, he could only watch helplessly as the undead Aya Hime held the microphone and let out a shriek, unable to do anything about it.

That microphone-like magical device was only completed after the New Year, using the technology left behind by old man Langdon, who once used the same technology to turn a fused organ finger into a pen.

Therefore, there is also a fusion organ inside this microphone, which is Mondoly's vocal cords.

When the undead Ayahime shrieked into the microphone, Mondoly's vocal cords were forcibly activated by the magic device, transforming the shriek into a cluster of sound waves with destructive power.

The undead Aya's talent ability, which can increase the effects of equipment skills and items by about 30%, is also effective, further enhancing the already powerful cluster sound wave.

Boom!

The cluster of sound waves struck the Demon-Slaying Bell with a deafening roar. The entire valley's terrain collapsed due to the impact, the magic circle that Amelie had set up beforehand was severely damaged, and the magic barrier that sealed the valley also shattered and disappeared.

However, there was no need to re-seal it, because shortly after being hit by the cluster sound waves, the Demon-Slaying Bell lost its master's spiritual power and returned to its original form, becoming a bell that could be held in one hand.

Ye Bufan, who had been hiding inside the bell, also completely lost consciousness, and the battle ended.

Chapter 265 The Soul Surgery Begins

When Lin Wan'er regained consciousness after being stunned by the Dragon Breath missile, she found that her hands, feet and body were bound by ropes and she could not move. Her spiritual power had also completely disappeared, leaving her feeling empty.

It was dark all around, but not damp and well-ventilated, so it must have been in a man-made structure rather than a natural cave.

Someone nearby was humming a cheerful tune, but it sent chills down Lin Wan'er's spine. The immense fear almost made her cry.

Suppressing the urge to cry, Lin Wan'er reluctantly turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, only to see a scene that made her want to scream.

Her fiancé, Ye Bufan, had all four limbs severed and was placed like an object in the middle of a malevolent-looking magic circle, where something was being continuously drained from him. She felt that her fiancé was getting further and further away from her and would soon leave her completely, in the kind of way that would result in the annihilation of his body and soul.

At the other end of the magic circle stood a gorgeously dressed pink-haired foreign girl, waving her arms like a conductor, continuously casting spells and manipulating the magic circle.

Even if she wasn't very bright, Lin Wan'er could tell that the pink-haired girl was the murderer who had set a trap for them in the valley, and Ye Bufan was her trophy.

"What are you doing? Let go of Brother Bufan! He's the vanguard general of the Empire's Eastern Legion, and the grandson of the Minister of War! You'll get what's coming to you if you treat him like this!"

Despite being terrified, Lin Wan'er mustered her courage for her fiancé's sake, loudly rebuked Amelie and issued a threat.

"...Oh, I'm so scared~~"

Emery stopped humming her little tune, glanced at Lin Wan'er sideways, and a wicked smile crept onto her lips:

"Don't worry, I'm currently extracting your brother's soul and erasing his personal consciousness. It's mostly done and will be completely finished soon... When that happens, this self named Ye Bufan will completely disappear from the world, leaving only his pure soul power and high-quality corpse. I promise to make good use of his legacy and never waste it."

"you……"

Lin Wan'er felt a chill run through her body, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

For the young people of the Tianyun Empire, evil cultivators who kill, refine corpses, and extract souls are already ancient legends. Unexpectedly, she encountered one herself today.

"Why did you do this... We didn't do anything to you..."

Lin Wan'er finally couldn't hold back her tears and even peed her pants in fear.

Tears smudged her makeup, making her once beautiful face look like a clown, and the stench of urine completely masked her natural fragrance, erasing all her charm as a beauty.

"Brother Bufan is such a good person, why did he have to suffer like this... Why didn't you kill me too! Why?"

Lin Wan'er cried and peed, screaming in despair.

"You didn't provoke me, but I just happened to need a powerful soul to improve myself, and I just happened to run into you... I guess you're just unlucky."

Emerald continued casting her spell, saying casually:

"As for you... don't worry, I'm a kind-hearted woman and I can't bear to see lovers separated by death. So after your brother is completely dead, I'll send you down to join him."

"The reason I'm keeping you alive now is because your brother is quite capable, and he might have some tricks up his sleeve waiting for an opportunity to turn the tables on me... Although the possibility is less than one in ten thousand, I'm always cautious and have to take precautions. As long as you're alive, you're my best hostage."

"..."

Lin Wan'er's eyes completely lost focus, filled with despair.

Seeing this, Amelie stopped paying attention to Lin Wan'er and continued casting spells and working. It took her almost another hour to finally finish her work.

During this period, Amelie's study of "The Netherworld Soul Manual" and the patient explanations from the woman in red have been very rewarding for her.

Previously, whenever Emerald transformed a powerful being in the third stage into an undead, she would transform both the body and soul together.

While this method preserves the undead's strength to the greatest extent possible, the will of the strong can also easily free the undead from the necromancer's control.

At least Amelie's two previous attempts had failed; after becoming undead, Wayne and Mondoly hated her intensely and were completely out of her control.

The only successful individual, Hoshino Miki, was painstakingly crafted under the personal guidance of the old lich, through meticulous and painstaking work.

But this situation will not happen again. After studying the "Netherworld Soul Manual" and truly understanding what her invisible ribbon is, Amelie's mastery of the soul path has advanced by leaps and bounds. Now, apart from having mastered only a few soul magic spells, her understanding of the soul has completely surpassed that of Ark-Lohid, who has specialized in soul magic for many years.

The first attempt on Ye Bufan was quite successful.

After severely injuring Ye Bufan and rendering him unconscious, Amelie first used an invisible ribbon to separate Ye Bufan's soul from his body. Then, she used a magic circle to gradually erase all of Ye Bufan's self within his soul, refining it into the purest soul power and storing it in the small jade bottle given to her by the woman in red.

Without a soul and self-awareness, Ye Bufan's corpse was transformed into a spirit, and the spirit Ye Bufan became very docile, showing no intention of resistance or struggle.

Of course, the combat power of such a soulless undead is greatly reduced. Apart from the fact that the physical attributes are basically retained, the spiritual power is only about 40% of what it was in life. Many skills cannot be used, and even the magic weapon Demon-Subduing Bell that has recognized its master can no longer be activated.

After carefully putting away the small jade bottle containing pure soul power, Amelie, with a wicked smile, controlled the undead Ye Bufan to walk to Lin Wan'er's side.

Before his death, Ye Bufan had a large amount of his life force wiped out by the Touch of Withering and the Finger of Death. After falling into a coma, he had his limbs cut off by Amelie, which was a truly tragic situation.

But now that he has become an undead, Ye Bufan has been restored to his handsome and dashing appearance under the magic of Ameliete.

Lin Wan'er, whose eyes had previously lost focus and given up thinking, finally reacted upon seeing the spirit Ye Bufan, and cried out in surprise:

"Brother Bufan? You killed that female demon and came to save me?"

"Yes, Wan'er, don't be afraid, I'll get you out of here right away."

The undead Ye Bufan gave a cool laugh, then flicked his finger like a sword, cutting all the ropes binding Lin Wan'er.

But Lin Wan'er did not continue to be happy; instead, she burst into tears once again.

"...No, you're not Brother Bufan. He never called me Wan'er; he always called me Sister Wan...You're that female demon. You turned my Brother Bufan into a living dead puppet!"

"Yo?"

Amelie was slightly surprised:

"You're pretty smart. I thought you were the kind of idiot who only had your brother on your mind. I didn't expect you to be able to see through my acting in this situation."

"If you hadn't called me Wan'er, I probably wouldn't have been able to see through it."

Lin Wan'er gave a bitter smile, then suddenly seemed to remember something, her eyes narrowing:

"Wait... Wan'er? Although my name is indeed Lin Wan'er, only... most people call me Xiao Wan."

Generally speaking, when faced with such a situation of being plotted against and ambushed, men will first consider the conspiracy theory and suspect their enemies, while women will consider the emotional aspect and suspect their love rivals... Lin Wan'er was no exception, and she was right about it.

"...You're Xinyu's person, right?"

Lin Wan'er's tears suddenly burst forth completely:

"She's so cruel... All I did was reject her and choose Brother Bufan, and she's going to kill us like this?"

"Who is Xinyu? I don't know her~~"

Emerald, of course, wouldn't admit it, and even yawned:

"You say I'm her person? Are you kidding me... Do you know who I am? Even if that woman you're talking about really has something to do with me, she should be the one who belongs to me!"

...No, it's her!

The more Lin Wan'er thought about it, the more convinced she was that her guess was correct.

As the Princess of Dongge, Ji Xinyu is one of the very few people in the Tianyun Empire who can freely associate with foreigners, making it entirely possible for her to befriend such an evil and powerful foreign female demon.

Even her younger brother's sudden illness was very likely caused by Ji Xinyu, and the information about the top-grade Purple Immortal Grass was deliberately leaked to her by Ji Xinyu.

Lin Wan'er gritted her teeth.

After all, she grew up with Ji Xinyu and knew her very well.

Actually, it wasn't that she couldn't be a mistress, but she had long seen through Ji Xinyu's scumbag and ruthless nature, which is why she broke up with Ji Xinyu and turned to Ye Bufan's arms.

Lin Wan'er thought that Ji Xinyu would forgive her out of consideration for their past relationship, but she was not forgiven after all.

"Ji Xin... uh!"

Knowing she was about to die, Lin Wan'er was about to utter a few harsh words and curse a certain ruthless and wicked woman when she was immediately killed by a sword flash, dying with her eyes wide open... The one who did it was her beloved Bufan brother (the ghost version).

"How about that? I told you I'm kind-hearted and can't bear to see lovers separated by death. Now you and your extraordinary brother can reunite in the underworld."

Amelie smiled and said this to Lin Wan'er's corpse, then looked back and forth between Lin Wan'er's corpse and the ghost Ye Bufan for a few seconds, and suddenly had an interesting idea.

"Perhaps... I can truly ensure that you two will never be separated again... You're welcome."

I did it on a whim. After all, Ye Bufan and Lin Wan'er's corpses weren't very valuable, so even if I ruined them, it wouldn't be a waste.

Snapped.

With a snap of her fingers, Amelie activated the old lich Granny Ya's unique necromancy, the Flesh and Bone Transformation Technique.

The spell's effect is just like its name: it manipulates the blood, flesh, and bones of creatures to change according to the caster's will. It can transform beautiful women and handsome men into ferocious monsters, or transform an ugly mass of flesh into the appearance of a beautiful girl. It can be considered a magical version of modeling.

Under Amelie's magic, Ye Bufan and Lin Wan'er's bodies were quickly broken down into their most basic components: blood, flesh, fat, and bones, before fusing back together.

For the sculpting of bones and organs, Emery mostly used Ye Bufan's body material to ensure the strength of the new body.

As for the sculpting of the skin, hair, and facial features, Amelie primarily used Lin Wan'er's body material to ensure aesthetic appeal.

The remaining unsightly parts of Ye Bufan and the overly vulnerable parts of Lin Wan'er were discarded as waste.

Before long, a new undead was created by Amelie. She had Lin Wan'er's skin and figure, and about 8% of Ye Bufan's physical strength. Her appearance was a combination of the two people's features.

If Ye Bufan and Lin Wan'er really get married and have a daughter, then their daughter will look pretty much like this when she grows up.

"Haha, I really am a genius!"

Amelie carefully examined the newly created female undead, growing more and more satisfied with her. After a moment's thought, she even gave her a name:

"Ye Bufan was a sword cultivator in his previous life. Since your fighting style is inherited from him and I have transformed you into a beautiful woman, I will call you Sword Maiden."

"Yes, Sword Maiden greets Young Miss."

The swordswoman immediately bowed to Emerald in a soft, charming voice.

Of course, Ye Bufan's soul had been extracted and his consciousness erased, while Lin Wan'er's soul dissipated after she died due to her weak strength. Therefore, the swordswoman had no self-awareness at all, and all her reactions were controlled by Ameliete, playing a game with herself.

After returning the new undead swordswoman to the undead space, Amelie stepped out of the room. This place was not in Xiangyun City, but a small outpost of the Netherworld Cult in the wilderness.

The red ghost mask given to her by the woman in red was very useful. As soon as Amelie put it on, all the Netherworld Cultists she encountered would obey her orders unconditionally. She then requisitioned this outpost as a place to deal with Ye Bufan and Lin Wan'er.

Now that the matter is settled, it would be best to destroy the outpost and erase all traces.

Amelie ordered all the dozen or so Netherworld Cult members in the outpost to evacuate. Then she first burned the outpost to ashes with high-temperature flames, then used earth magic to flip the ground in the area many times like flipping a wok while stir-frying vegetables, and finally used holy magic to purify the resentment.

After completing these steps and carefully checking to ensure nothing was missed, Amelie returned directly to the Netherworld Cult headquarters in Xiangyun City.

Ji Xinyu had already returned ahead of her. Upon seeing Amelie, she immediately sidled up to her and eagerly asked:

"How's it going, Senior Sister? Did you manage to take care of that scoundrel?"

"Hmph, with me taking action, do you think those two small fry can escape?"

Amelie proudly took out the small jade bottle and waved it at Ji Xinyu:

"I've already refined all the pure soul power. Let's go find Aunt Red."

The two soon met Red Robe in a secret room beneath the headquarters of the Netherworld Cult. Red Robe and the old lich had already carved many runes and circuits there, all in preparation for Red Robe's soul surgery on Amelie and Ji Xinyu.

"Oh? You found the soul of a strong person so quickly? That's impressive, girls. You're much more capable than Xiaoya and I expected."

The woman in red first praised Amelie and Ji Xinyu without reservation, then took the small jade bottle from Amelie's hand, examined it carefully for a few moments, and raised an eyebrow slightly:

"The quality of this soul power is excellent. Little Ellie, you really are a genius. And... the unlucky guy you hunted is quite extraordinary. His innate abilities are also very special."

"What kind of innate talent does he possess, Master?"

Ji Xinyu immediately asked curiously:

"Actually, I've wanted to kill him for a long time, but I couldn't do it directly because of my status. This time, with my senior sister's help, I finally managed to kill him... I had secretly plotted against him several times before, but he always managed to escape danger. He's practically a legendary killer."

"Haven't you already revealed his innate supernatural abilities?"
