Chapter 182 . 1: A Death Had Occurred

Tang Doudou’s soul was scared flying when she woke up to Shen Moru’s terrifying face .

The people that were walking around were even more frightened and immediately scattered . There weren’t a lot of people around in the first place, so all of them were soon gone .

The large street was left with overturned vendor stands . That sharp wind was still sweeping around . A bamboo basket rolled past in front of Tang Doudou’s eyes like a decapitated head .

She looked up just in time to see Mu Ye’s figure fall down in front of her . She shouted at him, “Mu Ye! Don’t worry about me, hurry up and run!”

If they got caught again, it definitely wouldn’t be as easy to escape . She would definitely be reduced to being a blood bank for those bugs .

Mu Ye’s eyes darkened slightly . He understood this logic as well, but how could he bring himself to abandon Tang Doudou and escape on his own?

His iron chain dropped out from his sleeve, indicating the decision that he had made .

“Don’t be stupid! Since you can’t beat him, you should go look for help! Hurry up and go!” Seeing that Mu Ye was preparing to fight Shen Moru, Tang Doudou became even more worried . She wished that she was Mu Ye . If it had been her, she would have immediately turned and ran away . There was no way she would sacrifice her life meaninglessly .

Mu Ye ignored her shouts and simply looked towards Shen Moru coldly . “Let her go . I’ll go with you . My blood will do as well . ”

“Hehe, you wish! Both of you will be coming back with me!” said Shen Moru with a dark smile .

“Stop wasting time chatting with him . Even though he has cured the poison, his body definitely isn’t in peak condition . Right now you still have a chance to escape! If you wait any longer, both of us will be captured!” When Tang Doudou saw that Mu Ye was really dumb to the point that he wanted to fight with Shen Moru, she was so vexed her blood boiled . F*ck! This chance hadn’t been easy to come by . Why couldn’t Mu Ye understand?

Of course Mu Ye understood . It was just that he couldn’t . He couldn’t leave .

It was the so-called ‘a crafty rabbit has three burrows . ’ Tree Valley wasn’t the only territory Shen Moru possessed . If it happened that Shen Moru didn’t return to Tree Valley this time, where was he supposed to go to find Tang Doudou?

This thought had already occurred to Mu Ye back when they were still in Tree Valley . That was why he hadn’t left the entire time . He was worried that once he left, Shen Moru would switch locations in order to protect himself .

At that time, Tang Doudou would be truly in danger .

Right after they arrived in Green Maple City, a lot of people started tailing them . He currently didn’t know who those people were working for but he knew that the news about them appearing in Green Maple City had already reached a lot of people .

He just hoped that they would be able to make it here in time .

Shen Moru also knew what he was planning and had no plans to give Mu Ye any chances to stall for time . He immediately moved to attack Mu Ye . Although Tang Doudou was wedged under his arm, his movements were not restricted at all . His figure appeared behind Mu Ye and he sent a palm strike over .

The speed was so fast that he didn’t seem like an injured person at all .

Mu Ye was sent flying . He forcefully stopped the momentum with his iron chain, but when he stopped, he coughed out a mouthful of blood .

“Mu Ye!”

“Hehe, he actually dared to fight with me despite being so severely injured, he must not care for his life!”

“However, I’ve really underestimated you . You had been able to kill the pond snake with one strike, you’re probably already half a step into the ranks of first-rate experts, right?”

“There are sadly few people on the Jianghu that have such aptitude, it’s just a shame you don’t know to treasure it…” Shen Moru approached step by step . Tang Doudou saw that Mu Ye’s face was becoming paler even as his gaze turned colder, and was so worried she wanted to shout again for him to leave .

Just as she opened her mouth, Shen Moru attacked Mu Ye again . Each strike met solidly with flesh . Tang Doudou was close so she could even hear the sound of Mu Ye’s bones breaking, yet all she could do was watch helplessly .

“You ugly jerk! Wasn’t my blood what you wanted? Just take me then! You despicable bastard, shameless hoodlum! To take advantage of someone else while they’re weak, you’re even worse than a dog’s bastard!” Tang Doudou couldn’t do anything . She couldn’t stir even a bit of her inner strength . That medicine probably contained components that suppressed inner strength . She saw Mu Ye continuously coughing up blood – some had even splattered on her face – and immediately started cursing at Shen Moru .

“Shen Moru, you not-human-and-not-ghost half thing! If you have guts then just attack me! What point is there in bullying a severely injured person!?”

“Shen Moru, you’re just trash! Your existence wastes air, your death would waste ground space! You’re so ugly, your mom definitely raised the placenta instead of you… If I grew up like you, I definitely would have just killed myself! Family shames must not be spread out . It’s not a big deal if you go out and scare a few people out of boredom, but it would be terrible if you ended up scaring the little cats and dogs nearby and the little flowers and grass on the path!”

“Shut up! Don’t think that I don’t dare to kill you!”

In the end, Shen Moru wasn’t Bodhisattva . He was still able to ignore the first couple lines but as Tang Doudou got more enthusiastic into cursing him, veins popped out on his face and he was infuriated to the point the rims of his eyes became red . He gave her a fierce warning, then started attacking even more violently . He sent Mu Ye crashing into a wall next to the street .

The wall crumbled under the force and Mu Ye’s figure was buried underneath the bricks . Then there was no further movements or sound . After a few moments, when even the wind fell silent, Tang Doudou’s cold emotionless voice rang out .

“Shen Moru, if Mu Ye dies today, no matter what price I have to pay, I’ll definitely hack you to pieces until not even your bones are left!”

Her words simply caused Shen Moru to laugh . “You want to hack me to pieces? At the very least you have to be alive to do that! Do you think I’ll let you live until that time? Hahaha!”

His savage laugh rang throughout the empty street and echoed endlessly .

However, Tang Doudou didn’t seem to hear . She simply stared at the pile of bricks in front of her . She wished, she wished so much for that cold, tall figure who didn’t like to speak to stand up again . She wished that he would stand in front of her to protect her again…

However, that place was still, not even a bit of dust stirred . It could be seen that the person buried there was no longer breathing .

Chapter 182 . 2: A Death Had Occurred

She had known ever since she came to this space-time, that this was a cruel world that viewed human life as grass . Once, Jun Xin had ordered Qing Yin to kill herself just because she heard the three words ‘Disseminating Tassel Fragrance . ’ At Azure Water Valley, though she hadn’t seen it personally, she knew from Baili Yu’s tone and the injuries that covered his back what a desperate battle he had gone through…

Earlier, while the Demonic Sect was rampaging, all the sects that got in their way and refused to give in were massacred without mercy .

Although she had multiple near-death experiences, different people appeared each time to save her from the disaster .

That was why the word ‘death’ had simply been an idea to her . What happened to that vendor before was already a huge shock to her, so this incident was even more of a blow . She felt so remorseful she could barely breathe .

It was because this person had died for the sake of protecting her .

She never thought that, the first person that had tried to kill her would end up dying to protect her!

She wasn’t a blockhead, nor was she a fool . She had figured out Mu Ye’s feelings during this past period when he kept staying with her . However, her heart had already decided on a person and had no room left for any others .

Even so, her heart was not iron and stone . How could she be unmoved when Mu Ye had died for her?

The world was truly fickle and pitiless!

Pain, hurt, regret, and hatred crushed her heart . Tears fell noiselessly from her eyes and were quietly dried by the wind, leaving only dry traces on her face, and also in her heart . “What I say, I will do… Mu Ye, if I kill him, will I be able to repay you for your feelings?”

Her tone was light, as if it hadn’t come from her mouth but arose from the surroundings .

When the last word left her mouth, an enormous imposing aura burst out of her body . Shen Moru didn’t have any time to react before he was sent flying by the shockwave . Majestic inner strength expanded and emitted a boundless pressure . A figure appeared above him . The figure’s cold emotionless eyes glowed with a faint blue light . As black hair wildly lifted in the wind, countless black crows flew over from all directions to circle behind that person . The scene was like that of a devil’s descent .

“Y-you’re actually!” When Shen Moru saw the crows that blanketed the skies and those ice-blue pupils, terror appeared in his white eyes and he hastily retreated .

“Die!” The only thing on Tang Doudou’s mind was to kill Shen Moru to avenge Mu Ye, she didn’t hear what Shen Moru said at all . She opened her hand slightly, then her figure appeared in front of Shen Moru like a shadow and her hand pierced into his chest like a knife .

Not a single drop of blood spilled . Shen Moru’s body instantly dispersed into smoke before recondensing at a distant location . His horrifying face was even paler and seemed even less human .

As of now, he had also calmed down . As he looked at Tang Doudou who had suddenly changed completely, he laughed his same odd laugh . “You’ve only awakened, that’s all . You still aren’t a match for me . ”

Tang Doudou knitted her brows . As soon as she had the thought, all the black crows behind her started flying towards Shen Moru . These black crows were different from normal crows; their eyes were blood red and their sharp beaks glittered with strange light .

Shen Moru wasn’t afraid of Tang Doudou, but he feared these black crows . He continuously retreated . When the crows got near, he turned and ran without showing any intentions of fighting .

The black crows naturally continued to chase after him . Tang Doudou also didn’t have any intentions of letting Shen Moru go . Although she didn’t know what had happened to her body, as long as she could kill Shen Moru, nothing else mattered .

Although Shen Moru was very fast, her current speed wasn’t slow either . Moreover, with the crows following him, how could she possibly lose him?

Suddenly, she had a bad premonition . By the time she had returned to Green Maple City, as expected, Mu Ye’s body was no longer in the pile of rubble .

“Hateful!” She sent the rubble in front of her flying with a wave . A trace of worry flashed through her blue eyes . What was Shen Moru planning? Why did he take Mu Ye? To threaten her?

Humph! Then let’s see if you have the ability to!

Since Shen Moru intended to use Mu Ye to threaten her, he’d definitely think of ways to preserve Mu Ye’s life . Although she didn’t know his methods well, there was no way Shen Moru was an ordinary person from the way he was capable of voluntarily dispersing into smoke . Or perhaps, as she had guessed before, the Seven Great Saint Tribes were actually a cultivation clan!

Otherwise, how could a change like this occur to her body?

She lifted her hand and looked at the strange symbols that covered her arm . Perhaps it was time to find Baili Yu and clear things up .

For some unknown reason, she felt certain that Baili Yu knew all the secrets her body contained, and even the secrets about the Seven Great Saint Tribes…

After Tang Doudou had calmed down, she looked around . Seeing that the surroundings were unfamiliar, she prepared to find an inn to rest first and find out where she was before rushing back to Huai City . She had been gone three months . The Jianghu was probably a complete mess by now .
