Chapter 396 A Life of Being Conquered
Chapter 396 A Life of Being Conquered
Tang Shuai never considered himself a good person; when facing enemies, he was used to striking first.
The moment the bullet left the barrel, he thought Liu Quji was doomed, but what happened next was beyond his imagination.
The bullet, once fired, maintained its forward trajectory, spinning continuously in the air without moving an inch. It was as if it were frozen in mid-air, merely continuing to rotate.
My brain felt like it was going on strike, a buzzing sound filled my ears, a sharp, piercing sound pierced my eardrums, my blood felt like it was boiling, my skin gradually turned red, the color getting darker and darker, and drops of blood seeped out of my pores.
"Ah Ning!!"
Yu Liu, who witnessed this scene, was somewhat anxious. The current situation almost clearly showed that "Liu Quji" was indeed not the original Liu Quji. He was a deity from the divine realm, and his specific identity was unknown.
She struggled frantically against the ropes binding her, the ropes creaking under the strain, but stubbornly held on without breaking.
Yu Liu's call startled Liu Quji. He stared wide-eyed at Yu Liu in disbelief, then turned back to stare blankly at Tang Shuai, who was being forced to bend his knees by his own pressure.
The immense pressure made Tang Shuai unable to stand, but he stubbornly refused to give up and persevered, clenching his teeth and resisting with his strong willpower.
Blood was already flowing from the corner of his mouth, and his defiant eyes made Liu Quji feel somewhat dazed.
"...No, no!!"
"Liu Quji" muttered to himself twice, and his aura suddenly exploded. He shed his disguise. In fact, the real Liu Quji had already been destroyed by her.
That's right, it wasn't him, it was her.
A flash of light appeared, and in Liu Quji's place was not the man Yu Liu thought he was, but a bewitching woman.
She wore a light blue, wide-sleeved gauze dress, her hair was tied up with a gold hairpin, her face was like a peach blossom, her eyes were long and narrow, and her bright eyes seemed to have hooks, and her every glance was full of charm.
On her delicate hands, the purple bells jingled with her movements. She was barefoot, with nine long tails moving behind her without wind, and two pointed ears hidden in her hair, appearing and disappearing intermittently.
Yu Liu recognized this outfit immediately, because she had seen it on Yue Sheng before.
"The Qingqiu Fox Clan!!"
She gasped in surprise, not expecting the other person to be a demon as well. Remembering that the other was a nine-tailed fox, Yu Liu suddenly recalled what she had said earlier.
She said she had a round face, yet was more alluring than a vixen. Could that vixen be referring to herself? If that's the case, does that mean I stole her man? Ugh, how could I say that about myself! I should say that we both fell for the same man! Ugh! Even that doesn't feel right.
However, if this guess is correct, wouldn't that mean the other party also likes Aning?
After all, the only person I've ever liked is Aning.
“That’s right~” the fox spirit, now transformed back into her original form, spoke up: “I am from the Qingqiu Fox Clan, and the most noble nine-tailed fox at that~ But, I am a nine-tailed fox who cannot hold a man’s heart~”
The moment she opened her mouth, her voice was like honey, sweet and cloying, making people want to transform into bees and rush headlong towards their beloved honey.
"Uh……"
The other party's words almost proved something, and Yu Liu suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "This should... have nothing to do with me, right?"
I am truly innocent.
"None of your business! Humph! You stole my man and made me the laughingstock of the tribe, isn't that none of your business?!"
The nine-tailed fox lashed out with her whip: "Now that you're in my hands, don't expect to have it easy! And you old flame, don't even think about surviving!!"
The nine-tailed fox was somewhat disheartened. She had originally intended to kill Yu Liu in front of Tang Shuai, but the opponent was so weak that she couldn't muster even the slightest desire to toy with her. So she simply killed her directly. As for Yu Liu, she would not rest until she had thoroughly tormented her to vent her hatred.
With a flick of the whip, it nimbly coiled towards Tang Shuai's neck.
"Watch out, Aning!!"
Panic rose in Yu Liu's heart. In her eagerness to save people, her potential was unleashed, and the seal within her body showed signs of loosening. The powerful force impacted the ropes binding her, and the already strained ropes finally gave way, shattering into pieces and becoming completely unusable.
However, this also wasted time, and Yu Liu didn't have time to rescue Tang Shuai.
Just when Yu Liu was almost in despair, a red light suddenly shone from her arms. Three red feathers, shining brightly, flew out of Yu Liu's arms and shone on Tang Shuai. His eyes changed.
"boom--"
"Click——"
The whip that attacked Tang Shuai hadn't even touched his neck before it suddenly shattered into powder and was scattered by a gentle breeze.
Three feathers rushed into Tang Shuai's body, and a terrifying aura gradually rose from his body.
"This, this is..."
Feeling the familiar pressure, the nine-tailed fox became excited.
"This really is...this really is Lord Taiming!!"
The nine-tailed fox's expression shifted from gloomy to sunny, almost instantly turning into tears of joy. Two tears streamed down her face as she was overcome with emotion.
Yu Liu was stunned by this change, and at the same time, she realized the reason why the Nine-Tailed Fox had become her enemy. It was indeed because of A Ning!
"Lord Tai Ming! Lord Tai Ming is still alive!!!" Laughter turned to tears: "Thank goodness, he's alive!!"
Unfortunately, the Nine-Tailed Fox didn't have time to be excited for long. Yan Ning, whose aura surged and whose strength multiplied, replaced Tang Shuai and regained her memories at that moment.
"Who do we have here? It's you, you annoying fox!"
His casual remark nearly suffocated the nine-tailed fox. That annoying fox—so, in the eyes of the Tai Ming God, was this how she was back then? Without even a name.
"Lord Taiming..." she clutched her chest, tears welling in her eyes, and whispered cautiously to Yan Ning, her voice pleading.
Fox spirits are naturally good at seducing people, but Yan Ning was not bewitched. He waved his hand fiercely, and a red semi-circular energy blade directly hit the nine-tailed fox. She cried out in pain, lost her balance, and fell to the ground.
"My Lord..." she smiled bitterly, "Do you still remember who I am?"
"I don't remember, and I don't need to remember. All I need to know is that you are partly responsible for how things turned out for me and Liu'er, you greedy nine-tailed fox."
One sentence was enough to make the nine-tailed fox turn pale.
