Chapter 594: Chapter 390: Overseas Female Fairy, Breakthrough Opportunity_2

"However, this kind of bloodline inherently has defects, not only will it gradually erode your humanity and desires, but it will also prevent you from ever stepping foot into the Daoist Transformation Realm."

"And moreover...they are extremely easy prey for other cultivators, to be used as spiritual materials."

"Not to mention anything else, you can summon ’Outer Heaven Flame Essence,’ and with the Valley God Gui in your possession, you only have to throw these people into the gui and refine them to obtain ’Taiyin Hundred Ghosts Elixir,’ ’Heavenly Ghost Demon Pill,’ and ’Ten Thousand Ghosts Spirit Ointment’—these holy elixirs of the Ghost Dao."

"Have I heard that you have a good friend who has married into a Ghost Country?"

"Isn’t this just perfect? Refine these fine items and send them to your friend, and he will surely win the favor of his mother-in-law."

Yuan Gong teased Tao Qian while sharing the new secret insights with him.

Yet at the banquet, Qu Zhongyuan’s prestige failed to hold sway.

Suddenly, a ferocious roar was heard; above Guangping City, a massive blade shadow appeared, and a dense Xuan Yin cold energy pressed down, causing heavy snow to fall in an instant.

And that snow was a crimson red.

As it fluttered down and froze in mid-air, everyone who saw it felt a premonition of death: any life covered by it could be sliced to death.

Qu Zhongyuan’s Ghost Eye Dharma Realm was instantly shattered by the blade light.

His Fierce Ghost Dharma Image, too, was slashed by the crimson snowflakes, cracking all over and wailing incessantly.

"Xuan Yin Blood Frost Saber!"

"Good, as the rumors say, it truly is an extraordinary treasure."

"With Gao Daoist relying on this saber, ordinary cultivators of the Cavernous Mystery Realm are no match for you."

"If your cultivation progresses further, tsk tsk, the four of us might have to join forces to withstand you."

The speaker was the Old Turtle Demon of the Wuling River.

Though cunning and shameless, among the Four Demons around Guangping City, his nature was the most normal.

After flattering Gao Buxi, he turned to pull Qu Zhongyuan along, giving him an out by saying:

"Qu Daoist has simply misunderstood, with our level of cultivation, how can we possibly sit at the same table as these juniors?"

"Not to mention our affections, just the Qi emanating from our bodies is too much for them to bear."

"Look, Gao Daoist has specially arranged a banquet for the four of us."

"Come, come, come, it has been a long time since we met, Old Deng has been missing Gao Daoist and the Medicine Slaves you’ve been raising."

Following the direction pointed out by the Old Turtle Demon, the Three Demons looked towards the inner room.

Indeed, within the main hall, suffused with radiant jade light, was another small banquet, where two figures were seated at the head of the table, one of them smiling at the four guests.

Qu Zhongyuan’s temperament was sometimes bizarre, sometimes normal.

Previously he was petulant, insulting the group of demons.

Yet after being struck by the blade light, he reverted to normal, withdrew his mana, and joined Tao Qian, the Old Turtle Demon, and Li Fengxian to take their seats at the banquet.

Once seated, their solemn gazes turned towards the host of this place, the Lord of Guangping, Gao Buxi.

To Tao Qian’s surprise, this Gao Buxi looked nothing like his bestial kinsman "Gao Wan."

Handsome in appearance, dressed in a purple robe, with three strands of beard, he seemed like a refined middle-aged scholar.

It was only when making eye contact and seeing those eyes filled with lasciviousness that one could judge: This man, too, was a beast.

At that moment, he slowly retracted a small dagger covered in crimson frost back into his mouth, and then as though nothing had happened, he saluted the four with a bow:

"Daoist Deng, Wutong Daoist, Qu Daoist, Li Daoist."

"It has been a long time; I, too, have missed you all greatly."

"Just in time for this joyous banquet, I invited you all to catch up."

"Oh, and this is Duan Yuhong, my newly wedded concubine. She is a disciple from the Mystical Water Palace of the Overseas Immortal Island. We met some time ago, and it was love at first sight, so we privately pledged ourselves to each other for life."

If one were to just listen to these words, anyone would think Gao Buxi was normal.

Truly having found love and mutual affection.

But looking over, Tao Qian and the others saw a beautiful woman dressed in a bridal gown sitting there, not only with tears streaming down her face but with an expression full of anger and regret, clearly visible.

With their sharp eyes, the four could readily see through the facade.

Talk of mutual affection?

Talk of pledging lifelong commitment?

This woman was clearly under Gao Buxi’s spell, rooted to the spot, to be slaughtered at will.

Qu Zhongyuan, still annoyed about losing face earlier, scoffed at Gao Buxi after guessing the truth:

"Love at first sight?"

"Judging by Daoist Duan’s expression, she probably wishes she could devour Gao Daoist’s flesh and blood."

"They say a melon forced off its vine is never sweet, and I’ve heard of the Mystical Water Palace. Although it’s mostly female immortals, their power is not negligible. If Gao Daoist does not wish to invite trouble, it would be best to release this woman."

No sooner had Qu Zhongyuan finished speaking than Gao Buxi burst into loud laughter.

He seemed to pay no heed to Qu Zhongyuan, instead staring at Duan Yuhong with obsessed fervor, reaching out to affectionately stroke her cheek.

He whispered, seemingly confessing his love yet actually speaking in a way that sickened those around:

"I haven’t deceived any of you. At first, Yuhong was very much in love with me, after all, I played the part of a benevolent City Lord quite convincingly."

"She came from overseas and knew nothing of my Gao Family’s reputation. If I could’ve kept up the act, Yuhong would have forever been kept in the dark."

"Alas, as you know, I have two little hobbies."

"One, is to lust after other men’s wives and daughters."

"Two, is to eat delicate brain marrows."

"The first hobby, I’ve temporarily given up."

"But the second, when I crave for it, I must indulge, not realizing a few days ago Yuhong saw me."

"She cursed me as an animal, a beast."

"Well, since I cannot pass as human, I shall live as a beast." frёewebnoѵēl.com

"Free and happy."

"Isn’t that right, Yuhong? Tonight we shall enter the Cave Mansion, and after I take your virgin Yin, I will use magic to turn you into the ’Jade Demon Yin Concubine.’"

"Not only will this spell keep you forever young, but it also won’t affect your fertility. I want you to bear children for me, litter after litter."
