Zhu Ziliu hesitated, “Martial Uncle was killed when he was trying to find the Passionless Flower antidote,” he defined.
At the moment, Huang Rong and her firm arrived. Listening to Zhu Ziliu’s clarification, she instantly examined the Indian Monk’s physique, however she couldn’t discover something. She searched all of the pockets in his garments… nothing. “Did your Martial Uncle say something to you?” she requested.
“No,” answered Zhu Ziliu. “When Martial Uncle and I got here out of this kiln, we by no means thought hazard was lurking.”
Huang Rong fastened her gaze on the Indian Monk’s smiling face and a thought flashed into her thoughts. She stooped and regarded on the Divine Monk’s fingers. Her coronary heart was pounding, for she noticed between his proper thumb and index finger some dark-purplish grass-like herbs. Slowly she pried open his fingers and took the grass away. “What sort of grass is that this?” she mused.
Zhu Ziliu solely shook his head.
Huang Rong smelled it. The grass had an terrible odor, she virtually threw-up.
“Madame Guo, cautious!” stated Yideng, “That’s ‘Gut Severing’ grass. It’s extremely toxic.”
Huang Rong stared blankly. She misplaced hope.
At that second the Wu brothers together with Li Mochou arrived. Upon listening to that the grass was very harmful, Xiuwen stated to Huang Rong, “Shiniang [martial female master – Shifu’s wife], let’s give that grass to this demoness.”
“Shan zai! Shan zai! [lit. good, peace] Younger man, do not be so merciless,” Yideng rebuked him.
“Grand Martial Grasp,” stated Xiuwen, “Are we supposed to indicate mercy to an evil particular person like this lady?”
By now the fireplace had reached the timber and bushes across the kiln.
“The hearth comes from the east, allow us to retreat to that hilly space to the north, and speak this matter over,” Huang Rong gave her command. All people complied and as they arrived there, the buildings across the kiln had began to burn.
Though Li Mochou’s accupoints had been sealed, she was nonetheless in a position to stroll, however with out her inside power. Secretly cursing her unhealthy luck she tried to unseal herself. She thought she would attempt to escape when the enemy was not wanting. Unexpectedly, her chest and abdomen harm like hell as quickly as she did that, “Ah!” she screamed in agony. What occurred was that she had depressed the poison utilizing her inside power earlier than. Nevertheless, when her accupoints had been sealed, her power was additionally neutralized. Now that she tried to flow into her power, the poison was flowing alongside and attacked her inside organs.
Her eyes noticed stars floating round; she was writhing in agony and virtually misplaced consciousness. Yang Guo and Xiao Longnü walked towards her, however what she noticed was a younger couple, a good-looking man and a beautiful younger lady and proper in entrance of her they immediately became Lu Zhanyuan and He Yuanjun. She leaped and screamed, “Zhanyuan! You’re so merciless! You continue to have a face to see me?” As a result of she was occupied with love, the poison in her physique turned extra lively than ever. She was in a lot ache that her physique writhed, her face contorted and white as a sheet of paper. She regarded so scary. All people stepped again a number of steps seeing her behaving like a mad lady.
Li Mochou had at all times been a proud lady; by no means in her life did she ask any favor from anyone. However together with her dying breath she cried incessantly, “Oohh… ah! Assist! Ohh … anyone assist me, please …” Her voice was really heartrending.
“The one one who might aid you was my Martial Uncle,” Zhu Ziliu answered and pointed to the Indian Monk’s physique. “Why did you kill him?”
“Sure! I killed him!” the demoness gritted her enamel and screamed, “I’ve killed every kind of individuals, good individuals, unhealthy individuals, I killed all of them! I need to die! Why are you continue to alive? I need you to die with me!” Her physique swayed, her respiration shortened, and immediately she lunged towards Wu Dunru’s sword.
For a lot of-many years Wu Dunru had dreamed of stabbing the demoness along with his very personal sword. Nevertheless, at that second he was stunned, and pulled his sword away unwittingly. Li Mochou missed the sword; she fell all the way down to the bottom and her physique rolled away towards the blazing flames within the valley beneath.
All people shouted! In a flash her garments had been like an enormous torch, blazing with hearth. She struggled and ultimately managed to face up in the midst of the flames.
Xiao Longnü, remembering their sisterhood, was the one one compassionate towards her. She instantly cried, “Sister, get out of there!” However Li Mochou didn’t budge, it appeared like she was not even feeling the extraordinary warmth. It was a terrifying scene … everyone’s eyes had been extensive open. Immediately, from her mouth got here a heartrending voice; she was singing …!
O mortals, what’s love? That binds past life on earth?
To all corners, in pair we fly… braving summer time and winter, by and by…
Union is bliss, parting is woe, agony is boundless, for a lovelorn soul, sweetheart…
Give me phrase, path of clouds drifting ahead…
And mountains capped with snow, whither shall my lonesome shadow go?
[Noodle’s translation]
Her voice was getting weaker and weaker, till it lastly light away amidst the raging hearth …
[Her song, Liu Bo – flowing waves – was the one she used to sing with Lu Zhanyuan, when they were still together. She also sang it with tears flowing down her cheeks when Yang Guo and Cheng Ying were playing and singing this song – see Chapter 15]
Xiao Longnü couldn’t maintain her tears again any longer. She sobbed uncontrollably in Yang Guo’s single arm. No one was exempt from feeling disappointment creeping into his or her coronary heart. The ‘Scarlet Serpent Deity’ lastly paid for her sins with a well-deserved dying; nevertheless, they might not assist however really feel pity for her. She was really a weak and blind lady; weakened and blinded by love.
Wu Santong and his two sons, Lu Wushuang and Cheng Ying had a really deep animosity towards her, and had at all times needed their revenge. However now that she was useless, they didn’t really feel a single little bit of pleasure of their hearts. Huang Rong remembered how the demoness – regardless of of her evil and merciless character – had taken care of her little Guo Xiang with love and kindness for many-many days. She then lifted the child up, put her little fingers collectively, and waved them towards the blazing hearth as a gesture of ultimate respect towards the ill-fated lady.
Yang Guo regarded on the hearth then turned his gaze towards the Valley Grasp Corridor. He sighed ceaselessly. He had rushed from the Damaged Coronary heart Cliff towards the constructing advanced to avoid wasting Lu’E’s physique from the fireplace. But now he noticed the entire advanced was burned down virtually to the bottom. He felt a deep sense of loss. He remembered each ladies, Lu’E and Li Mochou. One was an angel, the opposite a demon. Each died and have become ashes due to love. With out even realizing it, tears began flowing down his cheeks.
Whereas Yang Guo was nonetheless staring blankly into the fireplace, an extended, loud and terrifying chortle was heard, coming from the highest of the hill to their northeast. That voice was supported by a excessive stage of inside power. “Qiu Qianchi!” Yang Guo was startled. “How did she climb that hill?”
Xiao Longnü’s coronary heart stirred. “Let’s ask her if she has one other Passionless Capsule in her hand,” she stated.
“Lengthy’er…ah Lengthy’er! Are you continue to dreaming?” her husband stated with bitter smile.
Huang Rong, Wu Santong, Zhu Ziliu and the others heard what Xiao Longnü stated; they thought, “What’s mistaken in asking her? If we are able to get the capsule, Yang Guo must be compelled to take it; we will not let him intentionally destroy the capsule and die.” Nearly everyone had the identical thought, as a matter of truth, a number of of them instantly stated, “Let’s go and have a look.” Wu Santong and his sons, Yelu Qi, Wanyan Ping and the others rushed towards the hill. Yang Guo sighed and shook his head. “Provided that you will discover a divine capsule to avoid wasting each husband and spouse’s lives …”
