Ch88 - The Fall of the Heroine

After another three days, the Golden Jade Lotus in the lake finally bloomed.

At the moment when the golden petals slowly bloomed, a faint fragrance spread out. It attracted all the crocodiles, water snakes, and some big fish demon beasts within the Spiritual Realm in the lake.

“Gurgle, gurgle!” In the lake, two crocodiles chased and fought each other in order to compete for the Golden Jade Lotus.

A nine-star tortoise in the Spiritual Realm and a nine-star pike in the Spiritual Realm also fought. The two bit each other. The turtle’s tortoise shell was relatively hard, and the pike’s several attacks were avoided by the opponent, but the pike could not dodge the tortoise’s attack, and was bitten all over.

On the side, two water snakes were fighting with a crocodile. The two water snakes entangled the crocodile’s body and strangled hard, and the crocodile bit the snake’s body desperately in retaliation. The three were fighting together, and they have a kind of undead stance.

Seeing that the demon beasts in the lake had already started fighting, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, with the other six people also put on their flying talismans and flew towards the Golden Jade Lotus in the middle of the lake. Actually, Jiang Xu, who was already in the Spiritual Master Realm, could already fly with hisQialone without using a magic talisman. However, Mufeng reminded him that he should keep a low profile and not expose his real strength. Therefore, Jiang Xu wore his hidden jade, affixed a magic talisman, and flew towards the Golden Jade Lotus with the others.

Seeing the eight human cultivators flying over, the demon beasts who were still fighting together immediately stopped and launched attacks on the eight people who flew over. The groups of crocodiles opened their bloody mouths and jumped up to bite at the eight people. Pikes the size of a spiked-toothed pig also quickly gathered, jumping out of the water to face the eight people and attacking, as well as various demon beasts in the lakes including turtles, water snakes, crucian carps, and eels. The beasts seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, using their bodies to surround the Golden Jade Lotus in circles, and launched waves of crazy attacks on Liu Mufeng and the others.

Six of them were stopped by the outermost crocodile group and had to fight with the crocodiles.

Jiang Xu slashed five swords in a row, slashing to death a group of crocodiles that rushed over, and led Liu Mufeng through the outermost offense line.

With a wave of his hand, Liu Mufeng released his Golden Spirit Insects and Water Spirit Insects. Helping Jiang Xu to clean up the surrounding demon beasts, Jiang Xu also secretly released his spiritual pressure. The demon beasts in the lake were all from the Spiritual Realm and Spiritual Mortal Realm. Therefore, as soon as Jiang Xu released his spiritual pressure, those demon beasts did not dare to approach him. While the others were still trying to get through the demon beasts defenses, Jiang Xu had already flown towards the Golden Jade Lotus very smoothly and directly picked the lotus.

“Mufeng, let’s go!” Holding the Golden Jade Lotus, Jiang Xu flew towards his partner. Holding Liu Mufeng’s arm, he flew towards the shore with the person.

Following closely behind Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, looking at Liu Mufeng holding the Golden Jade Lotus, the heroine’s eyes turned red with jealousy. She thought a while back that when Liu Mufeng and the demon beasts fought, she would attack directly from behind, in that way, Liu Mufeng would surely die. However, she did not expect that the battle had only just begun, and Jiang Xu successfully obtained the Golden Jade Lotus, ending the battle. She had to say that Jiang Xu’s speed was really too fast and a bit surprising, and she had no time to sneak attack at all.

Looking at Liu Mufeng’s back, how could the heroine be willing to let the other party leave alive? She directly took out a magic weapon from her storage ring, and threw it towards Liu Mufeng.

Feeling that there was a murderous aura attacking him from behind, Liu Mufeng immediately released his beast fire to block it, but even so, he was still severely injured. The Golden Lantern that hit him on the back made Liu Mufeng directly spit out a mouthful of blood. The secondary protective soft armor, the outer robe that Xiaoyuan had spat out, all of them were shattered to pieces.

“Mufeng!” With a startled voice, Jiang Xu landed on the shore with Liu Mufeng. Seeing the blood on the corner of his lover’s mouth, Jiang Xu gritted his teeth angrily, his eyes blood red.

“I’m okay!” Shaking his head, Liu Mufeng took out two Rejuvenation Pills and swallowed them directly, thinking to himself, ‘Fortunately, there was the soft armor and the beast fire blocking most of the attack, otherwise, I am afraid that I would have died!’

“Damn you bitch! How dare you make a sneak attack!” With a roar, Jiang Xu looked at the six people behind him resentfully. He saw that Meng Shishi was already entangled by Mufeng’s flame eagle. And Xiao Zhantian was helping the heroine to deal with the flame eagle.

“Liu Mufeng, what are you doing? Take back your beast fire!” Looking at Liu Mufeng, the male protagonist roared angrily.

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng sneered. “She attacked me first!” Take it back? What a joke. The heroine had made a sneak attack and even injured him, did he just ask to let the other party go? He was not that green! Besides, in a sense, he and the heroine were originally enemies of life and death. Because, in the original book, the little cannon fodder Liu Mufeng also died in the hands of the heroine.

“You, you…” Hearing this, the male protagonist became extremely furious. He also did not expect that his partner would suddenly attack Liu Mufeng for the sake of the Golden Jade Lotus, and he also did not expect that this Liu Mufeng not only had second-level soft armor, but also something like beast fire. Even his partner’s Golden Lantern could not help her and had not even given Liu Mufeng a serious injury.

Liu Mufeng put the Golden Jade Lotus into the storage ring. With a wave of his hand, a green light enveloped the Golden Lantern on the ground, and it fell directly into Liu Mufeng’s palm. Scrutinizing the lantern in his hand, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but raise his brows. “It really is an excellent magic weapon.”

This Golden Lantern was mentioned in the original novel. It was also obtained by the heroine from the hands of a small cannon fodder. It was a flourishing magic weapon, and it had always been the heroine’s ultimate move when attacking. This Golden Lantern would directly draw on the opponents’ spiritual power. Depending on the level of the lantern, it would cripple one’s cultivation or worse, the attack would cause aQideviation and death.

Thinking of the little cannon fodder who died for this Golden Lantern, Liu Mufeng sighed softly and directly penetrated his soul force into the wick, erasing the heroine’s soul imprint and imprinting his own soul. He then put the Golden Lantern into his storage ring.

“Pfft…” Losing the contract of the magic weapon, the heroine spat out a large mouthful of blood.

“Liu Mufeng, you, you dare to actually rob her magic weapon!” Looking at Liu Mufeng who took his partner’s magic weapon as his own, the male protagonist’s face was strangely twisted in anger and rage.

“Hmph! I didn’t want to snatch it, but Fellow Daoist Meng freely gave it to me!”Don’t tell me that he would refuse if she gave it to me for nothing.

“You……”

“Meng Shishi, you bitch, how dare you sneak up on my partner, I’ll kill you!” Jiang Xu was about to rush over, but Liu Mufeng stopped him.

“You don’t have to go, my beast fire can handle her.” If Jiang Xu kill the heroine, her Grandfather, a Spiritual King Realm, would surely found out and would hold Jiang Xu accountable. Liu Mufeng naturally couldn’t let his lover take the risk.

Hearing this, Jiang Xu frowned. “Mufeng, you’re seriously injured.” Jiang Xu felt heartache when he looked at his pale lover.

“I’ve already taken the pills, I’m fine.” Shaking his head, Liu Mufeng assured the other party that he was fine. He had to say that this Golden Lantern was really powerful, and even his own beast fire was unable to block all the attacks. Moreover, after being in contact with his own beast fire, it was not burned to ashes. It could be seen that the materials used for refining the Golden Lantern were not simple.

Although the strength of the male and female protagonists was up to the mark, they were obviously not opponents to deal with Liu Mufeng’s beast fire. Beast fire was actually very difficult to attack and defend against. There were only two ways to put out the beast fire. The first was to devour the beast fire with the mystic fire born from the heaven and earth, but this was impossible, because the Lingwu Continent did not even have beast fires anymore, let alone the mystic fire. The second method was Drifting Water. Drifting Water was produced by heaven and earth dew and could extinguish beast fires, but it could not extinguish mystic fires as they were made equal and complementing each other. But this water was also very hard to find.

Liu Mufeng narrowed his eyes at the male and female protagonists who were still burnt with bruises, after smashing the magic talismans and the magic tools for a while, but to no avail. He had thought that he wouldn’t meet the male and female protagonists so soon. Unexpectedly, the heroine could not wait to take action. It seemed that the fact that he had become a third-level alchemist had stimulated the other party.

“Ahhh…” Suddenly, the heroine gave a loud shout, and a surging spiritual power burst out from the heroine’s body, smashing directly at the flame eagle.

“Sssttt…” The flame eagle was directly hit and turned into smaller flames. Suspended in mid-air, they gathered together again.

Looking at the three-meter-high flame eagle, it was directly reduced by half and became one person tall. Liu Mufeng frowned. He waved his hand and took back the flame eagle. He thought to himself:She had released her spiritual power from which her alchemy skills were being cultivated. She had sacrificed her Alchemy skills, if she survived the secret realm, she would no longer be able to practice Alchemy, unless she starts to learn again. Moreover, the direct attack of the cultivator of the Spiritual Mortal Realm, using all her spiritual power, was really not simple, and it actually directly weakened the power of the beast fire. If this hits a person, I am afraid he will definitely die!

Looking at Liu Mufeng, who had withdrawn the beast fire and was staring from the opposite side, the burnt-out female protagonist clenched her fists resentfully and jealousy and said: “You actually have beast fire!”

How, how could this be? Grandpa had been searching for a lifetime, but he had not found a flame that belonged to him, but this abominable Liu Mufeng actually possessed a beast fire. Why was God so unfair, and why all the best were obtained by Liu Mufeng? Why?

Looking at the jealous heroine, Liu Mufeng sneered. “Didn’t you guess this as well earlier?”

Hearing this, the heroine’s face was even more distorted. She suddenly remembered that when they first met, she felt that the aura of Liu Mufeng was wrong, and the smell of flames was very strong. Thinking about it, at that time, Liu Mufeng should have just contracted the beast fire for a short time, and he couldn’t restrain his aura. Damn! She had not paid attention to these tiny details, she actually missed a beast fire. Thinking of this matter, the heroine was even more jealous of Liu Mufeng. Almost insane with jealousy!

“Meng Shishi, you bitch! You dare to hurt my husband. Do you think you can get away from me? You are courting death!” Jiang Xu slashed towards the heroine with a single sword. This sword attack, Jiang Xu used 100% of his soul force, the golden light attached to the sword body, turned into a golden streamer, like a furious lion, roaring towards the heroine.

“Ahh…” Seeing Jiang Xu’s menacing sword power, the heroine cried out in shock. She instinctively wanted to dodge, but found herself locked in place, unable to move.

“No, no…” Seeing the approaching attack, the heroine screamed, her body was cut into two halves, and the corpse fell to the ground. Until the moment of death, the heroine’s eyes were still full of shock and astonishment.
