Chapter 83 The Madman Strikes Again, Mysterious Force Kneels in Submission
In Qingfeng Village, the atmosphere of the victory celebration was so enthusiastic it seemed to set the sky ablaze. The bonfire, like an overly excited dancer, twisted and leaped wildly, sparks crackling and flying as if celebrating this victory.
The wild rabbits and pheasants on the grill sizzled and dripped oil, the aroma filling everyone's nostrils and making their stomachs rumble with hunger, their mouths practically watering.
Luo Qingci stood on the high platform, holding a bowl of wine steadily in her hand. Her eyebrows and eyes smiled, forming two crescent moons. The mischievous look on her face made her seem like a clever little devil hiding a bellyful of bad ideas.
She cleared her throat and shouted, "Family members, my eldest brother deserves the most credit for beating those Shadow Hall guys to a pulp this time!"
Just think about it, if it weren't for his earth-shattering, tear-jerking mud puddle 'dive,' like Nezha causing havoc in the sea, would so much crucial intelligence have been unearthed? That fall unearthed a treasure trove of intelligence; they've covered all the secrets for us!"
The moment he said that, the whole room burst into laughter. Aomori scratched his head, making his already messy hair look even more like a bird's nest, and his face beamed with joy.
He even feigned modesty: "Oh dear, girl, don't flatter me. I'm practically floating to the ends of the universe. But seriously, it seems I'll have to settle down by the mud pit and go there for vacation every day. Maybe next time I'll stumble upon a magical artifact that can summon divine beasts and dominate the martial arts world!"
Everyone laughed so hard they were doubled over. Some of them laughed so hard they fell to the ground, which made the people around them laugh even harder.
Just as everyone was laughing so hard their cheeks were about to cramp, a henchman rushed in, panting heavily.
He could barely speak properly: "B-B-B! Something terrible has happened! A group of mysterious people, like a mad tyrannosaurus rex, are rushing towards our village. Judging from their fierce appearance, they're definitely here to cause trouble!"
In an instant, the once bustling celebration banquet fell silent; you could hear a pin drop. Everyone seemed frozen in place, their eyes fixed on Luo Qingci.
Luo Qingci narrowed her eyes slightly, inwardly rolling her eyes: "Good heavens, is the martial world really going after me? I just got rid of that plague god, the Shadow Hall, and now a bunch of fearless people are showing up."
"No problem, since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, don't blame me for being impolite. Today I'm going to teach you a lesson you won't forget, and show you what happens when you offend me—you'll be ground to the ground and then thrown into a black hole from which you can never escape!"
A confident and arrogant smile curled at the corner of her lips, as if to say, "The whole universe has to listen to me." She shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! They're just a bunch of clowns. Watch how I beat them until they're crying for their parents and can't even find their way home!"
Before long, the mysterious man arrived at the village. Leading the group was a man dressed in black robes. He was as tall as a majestic mountain, his face as cold and stern as ice that had never melted for a thousand years, and his eyes revealed a ruthless glint that could freeze a person into a block of ice. He was exactly like a great demon king who had crawled out of the abyss of darkness.
He surveyed the area like a tyrant inspecting his territory, and coldly said, "Hand over the Luoqing porcelain, or your village will be razed to the ground and turned into ruins, where not even a mosquito will survive!"
Luo Qingci leaped down from the platform with a "whoosh," her movements as clean and swift as a black lightning bolt. She landed steadily in front of the crowd, arms crossed, chin slightly raised, nostrils practically pointing to the sky, and said disdainfully, "I am Luo Qingci. What business do you have with me? Are you here to deliver your head as a greeting gift?"
The man in black robes frowned slightly, his brows furrowing like two intertwined venomous snakes. He clearly hadn't expected her to be so bold as to step forward directly. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he had seen an alien descend upon Earth.
"Someone has offered a high price to take your life!" the man in black robes said, waving his hand forcefully in the air as if commanding a vast army. The mysterious figures behind him instantly surrounded the village like a surging tide, so dense that not even a fly could escape.
Luo Qingci couldn't help but burst out laughing, laughing so hard she almost fell over, tears welling up in her eyes, her stomach nearly cramping from laughing: "You bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals? Don't you even know your own worth!"
"I see you don't know that Lord Horse has three eyes. Today I'll show you my power! With your meager abilities, you think you can kill me? It's like a snail trying to swallow an elephant—a pipe dream!"
As she laughed, she secretly pulled out several poisoned needles from her sleeve and hid them in her palm. The movement was so fast that no one noticed, as if the poisoned needles had entered her hand on their own.
Just when the atmosphere was so tense it could ignite the air, Luo Qingsen jumped out like a brave warrior, pointed his finger at the black-robed man's nose, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "You brat, don't you know anything? My sister is a master of both medicine and poison. Your numbers aren't even enough to fill her teeth!"
My sister can wipe you all out with a flick of her finger, as easily as crushing a swarm of ants! If you know what's good for you, you'd better take your people and get out of here right now, or you'll regret it. She'll show you why flowers are so red—as red as if your butt's been scalded with boiling water!
The black-robed man's face instantly darkened like the sky before a storm, so black it seemed to drip water. With a wave of his hand, the mysterious man launched an attack like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.
Luo Qingci's figure flashed, weaving through the crowd like a ghost. Her speed was so fast that it was dazzling, leaving only afterimages, as if she could teleport.
The poisoned needles shot out with a "whoosh," like deadly lightning bolts. Those struck fell to the ground, clutching their wounds and groaning in pain, crying out, "Ouch, it hurts so much! What kind of monstrosity is this?! I'm never coming back! Anyone who does is a complete idiot!"
As she attacked, she shouted, "Big brother, didn't you always say you'd be my strongest support? Don't let me down today, or I won't treat you to roast chicken in the future. I won't even leave you the bones, and you'll be watching others eat while your mouth waters!"
Upon hearing this, Aomori's eyes widened like saucers, and he roared, "Don't worry, girl! If I mess up today, I'll twist my own head off and use it as a ball to kick into outer space to feed the aliens!"
"Brothers, charge with me! Beat these bastards to a pulp! Let them know that Qingfeng Village isn't to be trifled with. messing with us is like stirring up a hornet's nest—they'll suffer the consequences! Let them cry their way home to their mothers!"
After saying that, he led the brothers of Qingfeng Village and charged up the mountain like tigers descending the mountain. In an instant, the shouts of battle shook the heavens, and it was as lively as a blockbuster movie.
Xiao Yichen was not to be outdone. Holding a long sword, he nimbly engaged the mysterious man in combat. As he fought, he glanced at Luo Qingci, his heart filled with admiration. He couldn't help but sigh to himself, "Miss Luo is truly amazing. Facing so many enemies, she remains so calm and composed, as if everything is under her control."
If I were half as good as her, I could roam the martial arts world with impunity. Everyone would avoid me, or I'd beat them to a pulp!
The battle reached its climax. Luo Qingci fixed her gaze on the man in black robes, a cold glint flashing in her eyes, a glint like ice shards in winter, capable of piercing through. She suddenly leaped up, like a roc spreading its wings, her silver needle aimed straight at his throat.
The man in black robes turned pale with fright, as if he had seen a ghost. He hurriedly dodged to the side, but he was still a step too slow and his arm was slashed, blood instantly seeping out.
He was both shocked and furious, his voice trembling: "Who...who are you? How can you be so powerful! Are you a war god descended from heaven to deal with us lowly minions?"
Luo Qingci landed on the ground, clapped her hands, and looked smug, like a victorious general, her nostrils practically pointing to the sky: "Who I am is not important, what's important is that none of you will leave here alive today! You'd all better accept your fate and die!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the man in black robes turned around to retreat, only to find that his retreat route had been cut off by Aomori and his men.
"Trying to run? Not so easy!" Aomori shouted, brandishing his broadsword like a majestic war god, the blade flashing.
As if capable of splitting the heavens and earth: "None of you are going to escape today! Stay here! Otherwise, I'll break all your legs and see how you run away then. You won't even be able to crawl back. You'll just be writhing on the ground like caterpillars!"
With everyone's concerted efforts, the mysterious man gradually became exhausted and knelt down to beg for mercy. Some even cried out, "Grandma, spare our lives! We'll never dare to do it again!"
We have an eighty-year-old mother to care for and a baby still breastfeeding! What will they do if we die? Please have mercy on us and spare us!
Seeing this, the man in black robes was unwilling, but he could only obediently surrender, like a defeated rooster, hanging his head, looking dejected, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Luo Qingci stepped forward, looking down at the man in black robes with eyes as cold as a frozen pool, capable of freezing a person to death: "Tell me, who sent you? If you dare not tell the truth, I have plenty of ways to make you talk!"
For example, let me let you taste my specially made poison. I guarantee it will make you wish you were dead, worse than the eighteenth level of hell. You'll regret ever being born and wish you'd never been born at all!
The man in black hesitated for a moment, but ultimately succumbed to the pressure and revealed the mastermind. It turned out to be a small gang bribed by the Shadow Hall, plotting revenge for the Shadow Hall.
Luo Qingci sneered, her laughter both sarcastic and contemptuous, her lips almost reaching her ears: "They think they can stir up trouble here? They're dreaming! I think they're tired of living and want to report to the King of Hell as soon as possible, line up to be reincarnated, and remember not to mess with me in their next life!"
With a wave of her hand, she ordered her men to take the mysterious man away. Then, she turned to the crowd and said loudly, "Today's events are just a minor incident. From now on, anyone who dares to provoke Qingfeng Village will suffer the same fate as them! Remember this! If anyone forgets, I'll use their head as a warning bell and ring it every day until their head is buzzing and they have nightmares!"
The crowd cheered and shouted Luo Qingci's name, their voices echoing throughout the entire mountain stronghold, as if they were about to shatter the sky. At that moment, Luo Qingci stood among the crowd, radiating brilliance, like the most dazzling legend in the martial arts world. Everyone who saw her had to give her a thumbs up and admire her wholeheartedly.
