Chapter 775: 775
Under the starlight, Princess Zhang Le was clad in a black palace dress, her long hair hanging loosely behind her back, and her face was so pale it looked almost transparent . A thin layer of light shrouded her petite body, making her looked like a soul reaper who appeared only in the black of night . Her arms were outstretched, paralleled to her shoulders, and her fingers were moving rapidly to perform various incantation gestures . As her low chanting echoed out into the surroundings, all the plague viruses in the province began to drift toward the Prefecture Overseer's mansion .
The night breeze was gusting as blue torrents rushed into the mansion, heading straight for the secret chamber . The viruses, which were conjured of the divine power of the God of Scourge, were extremely brutal and nasty . Wherever they passed, houses rotted and collapses, and mountain rocks weathered away into dust . If Princess Zhang Le had not made them avoided common people along the way, this provincial capital city would have long been turned into a land of death .
Sad and shrill screams rang out continuously from within the mansion . All the members of the Ye clan, from the youngest to the oldest, were turned into hollow human skins amid the piercing shrieks and cries . Their flesh and blood had given birth to more viruses, who towered into the sky in plumes of blue smoke before pouring back down into the mansion .
The people of the Yu clan hiding in the mansion were letting out painful moans as well . The viruses were corrupting their bodies, devouring their flesh, blood, and energy . As their cultivation bases were much stronger than the people of the Ye clan, they had more energy for the viruses to consume, which meant they could live longer . However, it also meant that the pain of having their flesh and inner organs gradually infected by the viruses was prolonged . As a result, many of them were howling and screaming in hoarse voices, while running wildly about the mansion in pain .
The golden body of the God of Scourge Princess Zhang Le had formed controlled not only the plague virus . Since she was named the God of Scourge, it meant she could bring forth any kind of disasters and ill luck .
There was a man from the Yu clan, who was running wildly, suddenly lost his footing as a stone step snapped beneath his feet, and he lost his balance and fell headlong to the ground . A thud rang out as the unlucky fellow's temple smashed at the sharp edge of the stone step, causing his head to crack and explode like an egg, with his brain spouted several feet away .
There was another man, who was groaning with pain, rolling back and forth on the ground with hands clutching at his belly, when all of a sudden the ceiling over him collapsed, and a huge boulder, dozens of feet across, plunged whistling down and smashed him flat like a pancake .
Unable to endure the intense pain inside, one of Yu Miao's grandsons hissed and roared furiously, while performed a double-handed incantation gesture and intoned a spell to summon the power of the Ghost God he worshiped, wrapping himself in a blaze of fire . He wanted to burn off the viruses that kept invading his body, and wipe out those that were growing inside of him . But the pain in his body suddenly intensified more than tenfold, which was more than a normal person could tolerate .
It had caused him to loosen his hand incantation gesture, and resulted in the magic that had just taken shape to explode, striking him with a serious backlash . Roaring flames burst out of his seven orifices, and soon he was nothing but a heap of ashes .
And that was not all . One of Yu Miao's sons, who was fat as a toad, was twitching convulsively with both legs in the air as he pulled out a bottle of life-saving and detoxifying pills, removed the stopper, fished out two pills the size of pigeon's eggs, and shoved them into his mouth . However, as his saliva was consumed by the viruses, instead of melting down in his mouth, the pills rolled straight down his throat . Then, they happened to stuck in his throat, blocking his airway .
He was killed by two pills, which supposed to save his life . It proved that he was really down on his luck .
In just ten minutes, more than half of Yu Miao and the dozen of Elders' families had died from all sorts of strange and bizarre reasons . It was as if they were jinxed, their various ways of death were so peculiar that Yu Miao and the others who had witnessed all this could not believe that their family would have such bad luck .
This was the divine power of the God of Scourge . Whoever was targeted by this power, his every move, every word, and every action would bring death to himself, and any external factor would become the cause of his end . Unless it was warded off by an opposing divine power, those who were targeted by the divine power of the God of Scourge would certainly be subjected to all kinds of strange torture, which would not stop until the target was dead .
There were many magics that could restrain the divine power of the God of Scourge, but the Dao of Ghost God cultivated by Yu Miao and others was not one of them . So, though they had amazing overall strength, and their cultivation bases were much higher than Princess Zhang Le, there was nothing they could do to stop her from using the divine power to wantonly kill their families .
A loud rumble echoed out as a large hole suddenly cracked open on the ground, and two of Yu Miao's direct descendants accidentally fell into it and broke their necks . Yu Miao's eyes shot with blood when he saw that he had lost two more descendants . He let out a loud roar of anger, and suddenly shot into the sky in a gust of chilly wind, flying straight toward Princess Zhang Le who was floating in the air .
Princess Zhang Le narrowed her big eyes that shone brightly like the stars as she gently performed an incantation gesture with her little hands, then pressed them down at Yu Miao . "Scourge!"
An iron-beaked ibis suddenly appeared in front of Yu Miao, who was springing at full speed . It was a kind of bird famous for its incredible speed, with a long beak that could break gold and shatter iron, which was proven to be very good at penetrating all kinds of restrictive magic as well . In fact, one of the crossbow bolts used by Great Yu's army was made from this bird's long beak .
Yu Miao dared to swear on the souls of all his ancestors that there was not a bird in the air within a hundred miles of him just now . But with a cry from Princess Zhang Le, this iron-beaked ibis suddenly appeared in front of him, and was flying at full speed!
