Chapter 257: Killing Husband to Prove the Truth (7)
Chapter 257: Killing Husband to Prove the Truth (7)
With a mocking smile, she withdrew her hand and turned to face Ning Ning.
"They really like you. It's strange. When I went down the mountain to subdue the demon, it was these people who begged me to come. They also said many words of gratitude. But I know that there is resentment in their eyes and they curse behind my back, but I never care."
In her opinion, they are just a group of ants. Why should people care about what ants think?
But actually, shouldn’t she care about it?
Doesn’t what Ning Ning said make sense?
If the Immortal Sect cared a little more about them, these people might still continue to worship the Immortal Sect and would not turn to Ning Ning.
She smiled at Ning Ning, "Ning Ning, I like you. I asked you to marry me not only because your fate was suitable, but also because... I liked you a little. But I practice the ruthless way. The more this is the case, the more I have to kill you and cut off the emotional ties, so that I can achieve the great way. Now that I am like this, I can't talk about the ruthless way, but I think I should tell you."
Back then, in the sect’s dense forest, she was practicing qigong and meditating, when she saw a young man in outer sect disciple’s uniform, feeding a few rabbits and pheasants with tenderness in his eyes, mumbling to them, applying medicine to an injured rabbit, and then showing a silly smile.
That’s right, so stupid!
Everyone in the sect seizes the time to practice, or in order to get better resources, they try their best to curry favor with the elders, senior brothers and sisters, inner disciples, in short, anyone who can help them.
As for taking care of animals, they will only take care of spiritual animals, and then hope to get rewards from the spiritual animals to help them in their own practice.
They were too lazy to even look at those ordinary little animals.
How can there be such stupid people who actually like them!
She scoffed, but couldn't help but pay a little more attention to the boy.
The more attention I paid to him, the less I thought of him.
His aptitude is very average, he is not smart, he has no foundation in the immortal world, his appearance is mediocre, and he is completely useless.
So, she looked down on him, but couldn't help looking at him.
She felt that the young man was a rare living person in the immortal sect, a truly warm existence.
Unconsciously, she attached too much importance to the boy.
When she came to her senses, she found that her realm had loosened. She was so scared that she thought her realm was going to fall. She could no longer remain calm and had to ask the headmaster for help.
When the head of the sect found out, he told her that this was her chance.
As long as this young man is willing to marry her, and she kills her husband to prove her truth, she will be able to master her skills. As long as she continues to practice diligently, it will not be impossible for her to ascend to heaven.
Are you going to kill the boy?!
Seeing the rare smile on the headmaster's face, she couldn't smile at all.
However, she couldn't find a reason not to kill the boy.
She joined the immortal sect and practiced the ruthless way in order to become powerful and ascend to become an immortal one day. Could she really give up all this and become a Taoist couple with the young man, and live a life of love?
Don’t even think about it!
So she did as the headmaster instructed, but she didn't expect to be rejected mercilessly by the young man!
In fact, after being rejected, she was angry, but at the same time she was relieved because she didn't have to really kill the boy with her own hands.
But if the boy agreed, she would stab him with her sword without mercy.
Things took a sharp turn for the worse after that, until she turned into a ghost cultivator.
Now she didn’t know what she was thinking, she just felt that she should tell Ning Ning about her feelings.
Unexpectedly, Ning Ning was not as moved as she imagined, but said calmly, "I know."
"you know?!"
"To be exact, I didn't know before, but I found out recently. You turned into a ghost cultivator and still stay here, it can't be for fun. But what you said doesn't make any sense. If I had agreed to marry you, you wouldn't let me go just because you were a little fond of me. On the contrary, you would have killed me with more enthusiasm! I really can't bear your so-called fondness."
Although she has become a ghost, one can still see that Shangguan Ruixue's face is a little angry.
"Then I can't do anything about it. I was taught the Way of the Heartless, so I can't be emotional at all. Since I like you, I must—"
"wait!"
Ning Ning raised her hand to interrupt her, "You are the one who likes me, not me. In other words, this is your problem, you should solve it yourself, and you shouldn't involve me at all. But what do you do? If you can't solve your problem, then get rid of me!"
Shangguan Ruixue saw that he was still serious, not moved by her words at all, and her expression became even angrier, "I think you should practice the ruthless way!"
"I don't care about your ruthless way. I think your understanding was wrong from the beginning."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing is right! Does practicing the ruthless way mean you have to be cold and ruthless? According to that, the people who should be the most suitable to cultivate the great way should be the prisoners who are about to be executed! Their lifespans are coming to an end, and they will die suddenly, so they are guaranteed to be cold and ruthless. It is clearly stated in the "Classic of Purity and Tranquility": The great way is invisible, giving birth to the heaven and earth; the great way is ruthless, running the sun and the moon; the great way is nameless, nourishing all things. I think this is the true ruthless way."
"You, let me think about it."
Shangguan Ruixue stopped looking angry, seemed to be thinking about something, and stopped talking.
There are many people who practice Taoism, but how many of them can truly ascend to heaven?
Therefore, everyone is trying their best to sharpen their brains and look for that glimmer of opportunity. All their thoughts are focused on this and naturally they will not think about "nurturing all things".
As she was thinking about it, there was suddenly a commotion outside. Ning Ning was stunned. She naturally knew that since the immortal cultivators had been here, there had been no evil spirits attacking for a long time. Why did they happen again today?
Just as he was about to go out to take a look, a disciple ran in hurriedly, "Master, there is a fox spirit causing trouble here, but it is not a demon."
The fox spirit is a fairy beast raised by the immortal sect, and it is indeed not a demon, but it is really wrong for it to harm the people.
Ning Ning, "He did what only evil people do, so he is an evil person! Come on, follow me out and take a look!"
He flew out on his sword and saw a huge fox chasing people, destroying fields and houses, making a mess, but it seemed to just think it was fun.
Ning Ning sneered and was about to deal with it, but unexpectedly, Shangguan Ruixue rushed in front of him and opened her arms to stop him, "That is the spirit fox that the master personally raised. He loves it very much. You can't do anything to it. The day when the master will come out of seclusion is coming soon. If you hurt his spirit fox now, he will come to you personally!"
"I even killed his apprentice, so why am I afraid that he will come looking for me?"
Ning Ning walked around her and went straight towards the spirit fox. The restrictions imposed by Shangguan Ruixue and other ghost cultivators had no effect on him at all.
The fox spirit was very fast and cunningly dodged Ning Ning's attacks. It was not weak in strength either, and while fighting with Ning Ning, it could also find opportunities to counterattack, spitting out fireballs directly at Ning Ning.
Unfortunately, it was no match for Ning Ning and was quickly defeated. Not only did it die, but its spiritual energy was also sucked away by Ning Ning.
Ning Ning had only recently discovered that he seemed to be able to absorb spiritual energy as well.
