Chapter 111: The Place Where the Evil God Resides
。(·~)。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
Today, Tang Xiaoxia showed unbelievable abilities in front of Luosi Qi, but she also knew that with so many evil gods' guardians here, it was impossible for her to have much more time to watch the excitement.
She hastily descended into the well, and Ge Lin also helped her down. After she landed, Ge Lin urged her to follow him quickly, knowing he had found a safe place. At this moment, Luosi didn't think twice about how Ge Lin was familiar with the sewer system. She was hesitant about whether to wait for Tang Xiaoxiao or not. If she didn't wait, she would feel guilty, but if she did, she feared wasting the precious time Tang Xiaoxiao had bought for her.
Fortunately, Tang Xiaoxia didn't last long and soon followed down. After he came down, he saw that Luosiqi hadn't left yet, so he anxiously said to her, "Follow me!" He then led the way into a dark passageway, his Lingyun sword already back in its scabbard at his waist. With a casual wave of his right hand, flames reignited in his palm, illuminating the dark passageway. This time, Tang Xiaoxia was leading the way, Luosiqi was in the middle, and Ge Lin followed behind.
As he walked, Ge Lin quickened his pace and caught up to Luo Siqi's usual position, saying in a low voice, "Moon God, the path he's taking seems to be somewhat off!"
Luosi saw that Ge Lin's expression was not like joking, she looked at Tang Xiaoxia a few steps away in front of her, seemingly unaware of what Ge Lin had said to her, and also lowered her voice to ask: "What's wrong?"
She heard Glin say to her, "It seems that going further forward will enter the area controlled by the evil god. Previously, the entire underground area here was secretly controlled by our Moon God tribe, but just three days ago, the evil god and his subordinates began to occupy these areas, and many of the evil god's subordinates began to establish temporary dwellings underground, gradually controlling the underground areas of key locations throughout the city."
Lucy thought that three days ago she was still a naive and innocent high school girl, but in just these few short days, things had already become like this. She asked Glin: "So you guys don't have the power to fight back against them now?"
Gelin's tone was somewhat helpless as he told her, "Because our Moon God clan previously only made some simple use of the underground area, and we were also short-handed. Even if we occasionally repelled the Evil God's subordinates in a few battles, we couldn't stop them from controlling this region. Now, the direction your friend is taking us is heading straight for the center of the Evil God's control zone. If we walk for just a few more minutes, we might be attacked by the Evil God's subordinates at any moment."
Luosi didn't understand why Tang Xiaoxia was doing this, she just felt that Tang Xiaoxia must have a reason for doing so. Tang Xiaoxia walked quickly in front of her. Maybe she wanted to get rid of the evil spirits and guardians behind them as soon as possible. Luosi also felt that they would not give up easily if their side didn't move faster. Being chased by so many evil spirits and guardians was no joke.
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, they were soon attacked by a follower of the evil god. The man looked like an ordinary town resident, about 40 years old, with a strong build, and seemed to be patrolling the area under the evil god's control. When he saw Tang Xiaoxiao passing by, he directly charged at him with the steel pipe in his hand.
Luo Siqi could feel that the person was carrying a dark and evil aura. His appearance was almost normal, and his movements were very agile, unlike zombies who could only jump around stiffly, but his face was pale to the point of being terrifying, without a hint of a smile.
But Tang Xiaoxia's performance was even colder than his, the man five steps away from Tang Xiaoxia didn't seem to notice him at all when Losie saw him from behind, but just as he raised his steel pipe to strike Tang Xiaoxia, Tang Xiaoxia suddenly lowered his body, bent his knees, and then left a phantom in front of Losie like lightning. By the time the phantom cleared, Tang Xiaoxia's right hand had already been thrust deeply into the attacker's chest!
Accompanied by a heart-wrenching scream, Tang Xiaoxia drew out his right hand, which was surprisingly dark green in color. As the flames on it rose, the dark green color instantly evaporated, and the attacker had already fallen dead in front of Tang Xiaoxia, with white smoke billowing from the wound on his chest that Tang Xiaoxia had just inflicted.
Even when facing an enemy, Tang Xiaohe's cruel method still made Luosiqi furious. Of course, after the incident at Heifeng Village, Luosiqi no longer had that feeling of seeing a demon. She would rather have Tang Xiaohe draw out Lingyun Sword and behead the evil god's subordinate with one slash, which would make her feel slightly better.
As expected, Grein rushed over behind Rosky and loudly questioned Tang Xiaoya why he had to be so cruel. He didn't flinch at all because of Tang Xiaoya's powerful abilities. He said to Tang Xiaoya: "This person was only polluted by the evil god's magic, he was originally just an ordinary person with a wife and children, why did you have to be so cruel?"
Tang Xiaxia sneered coldly as soon as he saw him, completely devoid of the warmth that had seeped through his urgency towards Luosi Qi earlier. He said to Ge Lin, "It was he who wanted to attack me, if I don't kill him, he will kill me. This is woman's benevolence, no wonder the Moon God tribe has been retreating step by step under the Evil God's attack, having no ability of their own and placing all their hopes on the arrival of the Moon God. And yet they claim that your duty is to protect the Moon God... how pitiful."
Luo Siqi saw Ge Lin's face turn pale in an instant after hearing this, he raised his hand and pointed at Tang Xiaoxia, saying several "you" words in a row, but Tang Xiaoxia was completely indifferent to him, in Tang Xiaoxia's eyes, Ge Lin seemed not even as good as a useless person.
Lucy heard Tang Xiaoya tell Ge Lin: "You can leave now, don't follow us anymore."
"How is this possible? How can I leave the Moon Goddess? I must protect her!"
"Protection?" Tang Xiaoxia's disdain in his eyes grew stronger, and with a sarcastic tone, he asked Ge Lin: "Protected to the point where the evil god's guardian got all the secrets from you, even replaced you to take away the moon goddess?"
"How did you know?" Ge Lin didn't expect that Tang Xiaoxia, who suddenly appeared, seemed to know about him and Yu Huan's affair.
But Tang Xiaoxia was already showing a very impatient look, and his tone had revealed an obvious threat: "Do you believe it or not, if you don't leave now, you will end up like him." When he said this, his hand was pointing at the evil god's subordinate who had just died at his hands.
Gelin's aura had become very weak, and he looked at Roskie with a pleading gaze. Roskie also felt some sympathy for him, although Gelin had indeed made a big mistake earlier, but after all, he was the one who appeared to save her in her moment of extreme danger! She pulled Tang Xiaoxiao and said to him: "Don't be like this, just let him follow us! Anyway, he won't harm us."
Tang Xiaxia wasn't as cold to Luosi Qi anymore, but he still told her: "This area has basically been completely controlled by the evil god's minions now. The evil god's several guardians will search this area all night to kill her. No matter where they go now, they are likely to be found soon. Now the only way is to go to the place where the evil god is, because those who are chasing them dare not return to the evil god before killing her."
"This. How can this be? I absolutely disagree!" Ge Lin heard that Tang Xiaoya was going to take Luosiqi to the evil god, and he disagreed a million times.
Tang Xiaoxia retorted: "I know you're scared, so I told you to stop following us. Save yourself!"
Gelin naturally didn't want Tang Xiaoya to take the Moon Goddess to the Evil God, so he said to Luosi Qi: "Moon Goddess, you mustn't listen to him. The Evil God's power is not something we can resist. If we encounter his guardian, we still have a glimmer of hope, but if we encounter him in person, we will definitely be left with no bones."
"Where did all that nonsense come from, let's go!" Luosiqi was grabbed by Tang Xiaoxia with his left hand on her right arm and walked towards a fork in the road. Ge Lin wanted to stop him, but was fiercely glared at by Tang Xiaoxia. His right hand ignited flames again.
So Green could only stay in place and painfully cry out: "Moon God!" Rosicky was also very entangled, but she could only follow Tang Xiaoxia away. After all, he now had the power to protect her, and she could completely trust that he wouldn't harm her.
It was unknown how long they had walked, but as they ventured deeper into the area controlled by the evil god, they encountered more and more of the evil god's minions. This time, Tang Xiaoxiao did not directly kill them like he did with the first minion he met, but instead chose to evade them whenever possible, and surprisingly, they did not encounter any conflicts with enemies along the way.
Tang Xiaoxia later explained that the reason he killed the first enemy was entirely to intimidate Ge Lin, and not because he looked down on him for having limited magical powers. Instead, it was because he didn't want Ge Lin to die at the hands of the evil god, as only Tang Xiaoxia and Luo Sicui possessed the ability to escape from the evil god.
The small hut where the evil god was located was just a temporary wooden hut built underground, leaning against a wall with windows on it, and two people could still see some faint light spilling out from the window from a distance.
Luosi Qi asked Tang Xiaxia: "You said that house won't be searched by the minions of the evil god, but what if the evil god is inside right now? Wouldn't we be walking into a trap?"
"I didn't expect Tang Xiaoxia to confidently tell her, 'Don't be afraid, have you forgotten that you're immune to magic? The evil god has powerful magical powers, but his swordsmanship is definitely not as good as mine, he can't do anything to you!'"
Luosi suddenly realized why Tang Xiaoxia was so fearless. She was indeed not afraid of powerful spellcasters, but she would be in danger when facing many small fries with metal weapons.
Fortunately, there was no one in the small wooden house. Although she had already felt a lot more at ease because of Tang Xiaoxia's words earlier, Tang Xiaoxia still felt very nervous when she stood in front of the door and opened it. She had never seen an evil spirit before, but since he was the leader of the most powerful evil force, he should be quite frightening.
Moreover, Tang Xiaoxia strangely knocked on the door twice before pushing it open and asked inside: "Is anyone there?" After hearing no response from inside, he surprisingly said again: "If nobody's here, I'll have to go in myself!"
He pushed open the door, and the furnishings inside were simple: a table, several chairs, a small wooden bed. The only decoration on the cement wall was a painting of a child of five or six playing with ants in the grass, but not far behind him stood a bloody robber, one hand holding a knife and the other holding a human head, his eyes looking at the child with complex emotions revealing inexplicable pain.
The content of this painting is strange, but now Luosiqi doesn't have the mind to carefully ponder it. She asked Tang Xiaoxia what they should do next, just waiting here, how can they get out of trouble by waiting?
Tang Xiaxia had her sit in a chair, while he himself walked to the wall and looked at the painting. He told Luosi Qi: "Just wait like this, as long as you hold on until midnight, they will escape the predicament."
Luosiqi couldn't understand why Tang Xiaoxia said that, but when she asked him again, he didn't say anything and just stared blankly at the painting in a daze.
