C20 (1/2)

He couldn't fight, but in terms of dodging, he might not lose to this woman. When the woman rushed over, Bai Mu had already lured her to a place far away from the children.

Bai Mu wasn't worried because he knew that the old fellows wouldn't harm those children.

Seeing that Bai Mu was like a slippery fish about to catch its prey, and that he had to slip away from her every time, the woman was obviously infuriated. She stopped her movements and stood on the spot, roaring.

Raising his head, he saw the woman's face continuously emitting black smoke. An endless sense of hostility filled the surrounding people.

”Soul, no, she's actually a spirit!” Mo Xin saw that the woman's head was filled with a vicious aura. Her two eyes bulged out and her spirit body was even thinner because of the aura emitted by the spirit.

However, how could the strength of this spirit be so weak? If a peak stage spirit exuded pressure, then a soul body like his, which was only 200 years old, would have probably been destroyed.

But now, he was only injured in soul form. What was going on?

However, after looking at Bai Mu's condition, the anxiousness in Mo Xin's eyes became even more apparent. He wanted to save Bai Mu, but he realized that he didn't even have the strength to stand up. Looking at his almost transparent soul body, Mo Xin could only helplessly smile bitterly.

Xiaoqian, I'm afraid Mo Xin won't be able to save you with Tianshui.

He saw the woman slowly turning towards Bai Mu, ”You nosy human, now I will make you pay the price for entering this village and destroying my plans.”

Bai Mu glanced at the children over there and noticed that they had all fainted long ago. ”What did you do to those children?”

”Worry about yourself!” The woman giggled as she extended her arms. Bai Mu felt as though he had fallen into a swamp as the surrounding air became increasingly viscous and thick, as a suffocating feeling permeated the air.

His heart seemed to have been stimulated as it beat fiercely.

”Hiss!”

The woman pursed her lips and clenched her fingers tightly in the air. As she pulled back her hand, Bai Mu felt his entire body move in that direction. However, what moved was not his body, but the bottom of his chest.

Feeling the pain in his ribs, Bai Mu lowered his head with much difficulty. A bulge appeared on his chest, as though his ribs were being pulled outwards.

”Now, I will let you slowly experience the feeling of bones being pulled out one by one!” As soon as the woman finished speaking, something flew out from her chest along with the blood. A strong fishy sweetness filled her throat.

”Pfft!” Bai Mu spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt a little dizzy as the pain from his ribs being pulled out was transmitted to his cranial nerves.

”Brother Bai Mu!” Mo Xin looked at Bai Mu. He wanted to do something, but there was nothing he could do.

Bai Mu shook his head in Mo Xin's direction. From Mo Xin's appearance, if he were to do something, his soul would immediately shatter.

Raising Bai Mu's bloody rib in front of his head, the head hidden in the black smoke took a deep breath. Bai Mu could clearly feel the woman pause slightly before a satisfied chuckle came from the black fog.

”I didn't expect your bones to be so useful. Just smelling this scent makes me feel refreshed.” ”I believe that if I get your blood and bones out, I should be able to recover my strength and appearance.”

As the woman finished speaking, she held Bai Mu's ribs in one hand and lifted Bai Mu with the other. An intense pain came from Bai Mu's entire body, much more intense than before.

Waves of dizziness struck Bai Mu's brain, and he was unable to bear it any longer. He immediately fainted. In his final state of consciousness, he could only hear Mo Xin screaming at him, as well as that woman's shrill cries.

”You, get what you want!”

The girl quickly withdrew her hand as if she had touched something terrifying. Before she could think about where that unfamiliar low voice had come from, the girl felt a flash of purple light in front of her as her body uncontrollably slammed into the ground.

”Who the hell are you?” The black fog surrounding the qipao woman's head had already disappeared, returning to its previous state. The Qipao woman couldn't help but tremble as she looked at the man standing with his back facing her.

The aura of this person before him was so familiar. It was as if he had appeared a long time ago.

”Hehe, so many years have passed. It looks like your memory has declined. Yin-” The voice caused the woman's body to tremble.

”How do you know?”

However, the man didn't seem to hear what Yin'er said. He continued, ”I'll give him to you for his Innate Ability. However, if you dare to hurt his body again, it won't be as good as today.”

”What do you mean?” Yin'er only knew that this voice was very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it, nor did she know who this person was.
