Chapter 360 - It’s Over

“Also, don’t forget that you are the one that killed my entire family,” added Bai Lingmiao.

As soon as he heard those words, Li Huowang felt his body go numb.

“I had always been struggling in the past, not being able to choose a side. I can’t forgive you, but I couldn’t let go of my family. However, I’m different now. Now that I know that they were from the White Lotus Sect, and what they were trying to do to you, I can only say that you did not kill them thoughtlessly. In that situation, it was either them killing you or you killing them. See, I can think much more clearly now. No more hesitations, no more pain!”

Li Huowang looked at the unfamiliar Bai Lingmiao, her words making him realize that she had become another person altogether.

If he had to compare her to someone, then she was definitely similar to Peng Longteng.

Bai Lingmiao’s actions and choice of words were very similar to Peng Longteng’s, and he didn’t want that.

Just then, a soft body gently hugged him from behind as a forked tongue slid past his ears.

When he realized that it was the Second Deity, he immediately stood up, surprising both of them.

At the same time, Li Huowang’s sudden actions attracted everyone’s else’s attention as well.

In the end, he forced a smile as he looked at them. “I’m going to the toilet.”

Then, he looked at Ji Xiang and pointed at the dark forest to the side before walking into it.

Soon, Ji Xiang also entered the forest. When he looked at Li Huowang, he revealed a bright smile.

“Er Jiu, is something wrong? You can tell me and I will definitely help you if I can.”

Li Huowang’s actions just now had been very clear. If Ji Xiang couldn’t even recognize such a simple message, then he might as well gouge his own eyes out.

After thinking about what Bai Lingmiao had said to him just now, Li Huowang carefully asked Ji Xiang, “Lord Ji Xiang, are there any methods to dispel the murderous aura that enters one body from a soldier’s weapon?”

The current Bai Lingmiao was not the one from his memories. Even if he knew that she would never forgive him, he still needed to change her back.

“Murderous aura entering the body? You are going to need to ask the military for that. I’m not quite sure either,” replied Ji Xiang.

After a moment of thought, Li Huowang asked a different question, “Lord Ji Xiang, do you know anyone from the military within the Liang Kingdom? Could you recommend me to someone?”

Ji Xiang glanced at the fireplace. “Sure, I can do that.”

If it wasn’t for Li Huowang, all of them would be dead. By comparison, this was a simple request.

Of course, he would just be referring Li Huowang to someone. As for why Li Huowang needed to find someone in the military, Ji Xiang avoided prying too much.

After agreeing to Li Huowang’s request, Ji Xiang recalled the dangerous encounter just now. “Thankfully the mission is over for now. I will see if I can bribe my superiors so that I can be dispatched to a place that’s not as dangerous. The missions within the Surveillance Bureau are inhumane.”

“Thank you, Lord Ji Xiang.” Li Huowang thanked him.

He didn’t care about whether or not he would succeed, but Li Huowang would definitely work hard to restore Bai Lingmiao back to how she was.

“Alright, are there any other matters? If not, let’s go back. We still need to travel tomorrow morning,” asked Ju Xiang.

Just as Ji Xiang was just about to leave, both he and Li Huowang turned to look into the forest at the same time. “Someone’s there!”

It was already night and they were in the wilderness. Thus, it was clearly unnatural to have someone looking at them.

Li Huowang immediately pulled out two talismans that he had drawn with his own blood and slapped them onto his knees before running toward the direction of the gaze.

On the other hand, Ji Xiang stood where he was for a moment, before running back to the bonfire. He needed to look after the dead Muddled One to make sure that no one tried to steal it.

Meanwhile, Li Huowang weaved through the darkness of the forest as he approached his target.

When he saw that the other person was still running, Li Huowang immediately chopped off one of his fingertips.

The bone in his fingertip exploded outward and shot toward that person.

Soon, the bone bullet landed a hit and Li Huowang managed to catch up, finally allowing him to see who it was.

It was similar to a human, but it was very skinny and short. The skin on the person seemed to be supported by its skeleton. Its eyes were large and fish-like, as if they could fall off at any moment. Its mouth was caved in and there were very few teeth left inside.

As he looked at it, Li Huowang wasn’t sure if this being was a human or an evil being.

At the same time, the thing was not afraid of Li Huowang’s weapon, and just stared at it with a stupid gaze.

Shit! Is this a distraction?

Li Huowang broke the limbs of the being before carrying it back to the bonfire.

When he arrived back at the bonfire and saw that everyone was still there, including the Muddled One’s corpse, he sighed in relief.

“Lord Ji Xiang, do you recognize this thing? It was the being that was staring at us in the forest.” Li Huowang raised the thing up.

“Oh?”

Just as Ji Xiang was about to inspect it, a blood-curdling cry came from behind him.

Li Huowang turned and saw that it was Hong Da.

Hong Da was staring at the being with extreme fear. “That thing... That’s a human that was hidden by a Muddled One! If the Muddled One did not release it back to reality, then... that means...”

In the next moment, Hong Da suddenly grabbed some soil and munched on it, as if he was possessed. The fear in his eyes deepened.

“There’s no taste! Nothing! I can’t swallow it either! WE ARE TRAPPED IN A MUDDLED ONE’S KARMIC OBSTACLE! We have been hidden by it without us even realizing!”

Hearing this, everyone felt their heart drop as they looked toward the dark forest.

Suddenly, Ji Xiang ran up and shouted. “Stop spouting bullshit! The Muddled One we were trying to catch is dead! A dead Muddled One can’t hide us! Or are you trying to tell me that there’s another one?”

Hearing this, Li Huowang felt his heart skip a beat. “Lord Ji Xiang, there’s indeed another one! The female Muddled One!”

“What are you talking about? A female Muddled One? Wasn’t there only one?”

Everyone looked at Li Huowang and thought that he had remembered wrongly.

But when Li Huowang saw the words that were etched onto his arm, he shook his head. His memories were still intact. It was just that everyone had forgotten.

“No! We were here to capture the female Muddled One, not the male!” declared Li Huowang.

“Then where is the female Muddled One?” Ji Xiang’s voice was shrill, cold sweat pouring down his face.

Li Huowang pointed at the corpse on the ground. “She’s probably hidden within his karmic obstacle.”

Hearing this, Ji Xiang’s face paled, the blood draining from his face. His legs went limp as he crumpled onto the ground.

“A dead and a live Muddled One touched each other. The dead one is hidden within the live, and the live one is hidden within the dead. We are fucked! It’s over! We are done for!”
