Chapter 114: The Abyss (1/2)

The spewing blood stained the blade, Tong Xin’s hands, and splashed all over her body.

The three women, Hua, Xue, and Yue were extremely scared. Looking at Tao BaiBai, all they thought of was escape, and without any intention to go against her. Every one of them had limits on what they could endure, and the fear Tong Xin brought had already exceeded the bottom line of what they could endure. She had easily dissolved all the fight they had in them.

The problem though, was how they would escape from Tong Xin.

Almost in an instant, Hua and Yue’s heads spurted out blood. They did not even see the attack before dying; they did not even get the chance to scream out their fear.

The escaping Yue staggered and fell to the ground. She wanted to get up, but her legs seemed like they did not belong to her, trembling out of control and unable to gather any strength. She could only crawl, wishing for nothing but to escape from the sight of this demon. The moment she turned her head around to look, she was met with pitch-black eyes, before her internal organs shook violently and the sound of exploding flesh echoed in her ears.

Her body had burst wide open from the middle, showering rain of blood from the sky.

One Heaven-Level and four highest Spirit-Level experts were all being considered supreme masters in the Heavenly Star Continent, but one by one they were mutilated by the Cursed Woman as easy as cutting tofu. All of them…died with mangled corpses.

The only reason she killed them was because they were human.

Fresh blood, terrible screams, fear, and the feeling of desperation were things she enjoyed the most.

Her body was now dipping red from the rain of blood. She was not disgusted, instead her face was full of excitement and satisfaction. After twenty years, she could finally enjoy this thrill of killing again.

Ye Wuchen’s face was so awfully pale. If not for his endurance, he have already thrown up the food he ate nights before. Without any more targets Tong Xin joyfully headed back towards him, like a young woman returning from her stroll.

“Don’t come near me!” He furrowed his brows and scolded at the approaching Tong Xin.

Tong Xin ceased her steps. The shout of anger made the smile on her face disappear in an instant. Switching to a frightened expression, she did not know what to do. Her eyes misted over with a layer of pitiful liquid. Not knowing what she had done wrong, her heart was full confusion, nervousness, fear… absent of excitement and satisfaction.

“I don’t like blood… No matter the situation. If your body is stained with blood, you must not come near me.”

Tong Xin grew terrified as she quickly looked over her body. Hands, feet, body… everything was already stained with red blood. She rub her dress to wipe off the bloodstains from her hands, the blade now discarded. No matter how hard she tried to wipe them clean, her hands still had remnants of blood. In her grievance and fear, her tears of panic finally fell from her eyes.

Ye Wuchen’s heart softened. He could understand Tong Xin’s reaction. Killing people was almost instinct, she did not know that it was a crime. She possibly did not even have a reason for killing people. She had become the Cursed Woman as a result.

Sighing, Ye Wuchen moved forward and gently said, “Tong Xin, stand there and don’t move.”

Tong Xin held her tears back and stood there without moving while her eyes looked at him miserably.

Ye Wuchen extended both his hands at the same time. His palms flickered with a faint blue light. Immediately, the water in their surroundings gathered on top of Tong Xin’s head, concentrating into pure and clean water to wash her body clean.

Tong Xin carefully extended her hands to catch the water. The refreshing water lead to an innocent smile. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the relaxing shower.

After a while Ye Wuchen stopped, and Tong Xin’s body, from the top to bottom, no longer had any traces of bloodstains. Tong Xin opened her eyes to look at her hands and body. In her excitement, she ignored her dripping body and threw herself at Ye Wuchen’s chest, fawningly soaking his body.

“Tong Xin, you should remember. From now on, unless someone desires to bring danger upon you, me, or those people I want you to protect, without my approval, you cannot kill again. You are even not allowed to breath without it. Do you understand?”

Tong Xin lifted her head from his chest and, taking a very long time to completely understand his words, she nodded obediently.

“Even if you are to kill, your body should not be stained by blood. Or else, I cannot hug my Tong Xin.” Ye Wuchen finally laughed gently, then he hugged her like he hugs Ning Xue. Her body,like Ning Xue’s, was delicate and graceful. Ye Wuchen’s laugh had somehow made the worried and scared Tong Xin joyful. She grabbed onto his neck tightly, then used her tongue to naughtily lick his neck and face. This kind of feeling was surely more enjoyable than killing people.

Before him was the scene of bloody purgatory in the human world. Ye Wuchen looked ahead to divert his attention. The reason he did not stop Tong Xin from killing was because he did not want any of the people here to leave this place alive. News of the Cursed Woman leaving the Devil’s Trap Pagoda could not be known by any other. This super killing device could be used to fulfill the enemy’s nightmare.

Not only did they need to die, even their corpse could not be discovered. The Southern Empire Clan would investigate it, and their cruel deaths might lead them to certain conclusions. Even if there was only a small possibility, Ye Wuchen would not risk it.

“Tong Xin, can you dig up a huge hole and bury all the people that you killed?” Ye Wuchen suppressed his nausea and pointed at the spot where the brutalized corpses lay.
