Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 212 - 17: Mjolnir
Noon.
Dark clouds filled the sky.
The atmosphere above Xingluo Town was overcast.
The Chang Mansion was deathly silent.
Everyone stopped their battles, staring blankly at the giant shadow in the Patriarch’s courtyard.
This silhouette was three zhang tall, entirely dark, resembling a goat, but with four horns on its head, and legs as thick as ancient trees that require five people to encircle.
The nearby two-story pavilion only reached its neck.
Most terrifying was the fact that the moment the giant sheep opened its mouth which seemed to hold something, it spat out a curled-up, pitch-black corpse.
This corpse had disheveled long hair and a bright dress, evidently a woman when alive.
Bang!
The pitch-black corpse flew far away, landing right in front of Wen Yongchang who was chasing Qin Gengyun with a sword. Horrified, he stepped back two paces and looked down.
Instantly, he was stunned.
The hairpin and dress of this pitch-black female corpse were exactly what he had bought for Lady Wenjun’s birthday at Ladies’ Valley a month ago.
His lady was happy, wearing the hairpin he gave her the next day, putting on the vivid dress he gifted her, saying she was going out to choose clothes for him.
She never returned thereafter.
Wen Yongchang searched everywhere for his lady but to no avail, yet he never lost hope, believing that Chang Family and the esteemed Patriarch would surely help him find his lady.
Even moments ago when a thief slandered the Patriarch, he still firmly believed.
Until now, his gentle, lovely lady had become a curled-up, pitch-black corpse laid before him.
Wen Yongchang felt the sky spinning, instantly dropping to his knees, vomiting.
Behind him, Zhou Yun and others who were chasing alongside, intending to stop the thief, were also stunned, looking up at the giant fiendish sheep.
"What, what is this?!"
Someone knowledgeable whispered:
"It’s an Ancient Demonic Beast, Earth Mole! I’ve seen it in ancient texts."
"It’s just... such ancient demonic beasts have long been extinct, why would it appear in the Patriarch’s courtyard?"
Several Xingluo Town citizens whose family members were missing suddenly pointed at the Earth Mole’s foot and shouted:
"That’s my wife!"
"Daughter, my daughter is there!"
The crowd then noticed beneath that mountain-sized beast lay dozens of indistinguishable, pitch-black corpses, and six or seven female cultivators beside.
These female cultivators were likely spared from being devoured by the Earth Mole, unharmed physically, with clothes still somewhat tidy, but all pale-faced and weak.
At this moment, the roof of the Patriarch’s room was smashed, smoke and dust falling on them as they saw not far away their husbands or fathers, crying out joyfully:
"Husband, husband! I’m here!"
"Father, father, come save me, sob sob sob!"
They were excited and joyful, while one person remained quiet, with a graceful figure, long legs, holding a baby in her arms, leaning weakly against the half-collapsed wall.
She looked forlorn yet still carried an air of heroism.
Her expressive eyes looked towards Qin Gengyun in the distance, smiling.
"Taoist Friend Qin, I didn’t expect to see you again..."
"Uncle Qin, why are you here? Are my parents okay?"
"Qin Gengyun, where’s your lady? Quickly call her here, you are not a match for this Earth Mole!"
Nearby, Fang Xue and Si Minglan saw Qin Gengyun and shouted loudly.
Qin Gengyun smiled, relieved, gesturing towards Mo Xiaolan:
"Taoist Friend Mo, I’ll rescue you right away!"
"Taoist Friend Si, Xiaoxue, why are you here too? Don’t worry, I’ll save you as well!"
Fang Xue waved at him: "Thank you, Uncle Qin, be careful."
Si Minglan frowned: "Save us by the way?"
"Grarrr!"
Suddenly, the massive fiendish sheep bellowed violently, emitting a sharp, piercing roar that suppressed all the cries and shouts in the courtyard.
Citizens of Xingluo Town were horrified: "Where did this demonic beast come from? What does it want?"
The next moment, the Earth Mole opened its huge bloody mouth, speaking human words:
"How dare you disturb my practice, once I finish devouring them, I will deal with you all."
As its words fell, Zhou Yun and Wen Yongchang trembled violently, looking incredulously at the enormous Earth Mole:
"Patriarch?!"
Each time the seasons changed, Chang Shengzi would "share joy with the people," making him very familiar to the town’s citizens.
Now hearing the Earth Mole speak, its demeanor was exactly like that of the Patriarch!
The others were equally shocked, hardly believing their eyes.
"The Patriarch has turned into a monster?"
"Was it the Patriarch who kidnapped my wife?"
"All those female cultivators were eaten by the Patriarch?"
"Look, the Patriarch has a horn still forming!"
The accumulated prestige of the Chang Family kept them from immediately changing the title, but the next moment saw the Earth Mole open its massive mouth again, a female cultivator screamed as her body flew towards the Earth Mole’s mouth!
"Lady!"
A male cultivator screamed in horror, rushing forward, the Earth Mole’s vertical eye flashed with a ferocious light, instantly freezing his body, rendering him incapable of movement.
"Husband!"
The female cultivator cried, her voice hoarse and sorrowful.
"Husband, escape quickly! I’ll find you in the next life!"
"Ah!! Lady!!!"
The man watched helplessly as his lady was swallowed into the Earth Mole’s mouth, eyes cracked, blood flowed from his seven orifices!
"Beast!"
Qin Gengyun beckoned with his hand, the Heaven-Reaching Staff extended in the wind, his figure flashed, reaching the side of the Earth Mole’s head.
Facing such an ancient demonic beast for the first time, he intended to observe before acting, but seeing this couple’s tragic plight, he deeply empathized.
Thinking of how it would be if Qiu Zhihe suffered such a calamity, he wouldn’t wait a breath.
Moreover, Mo Xiaolan and the other three were under the Earth Mole’s feet, in constant peril.
With the Heaven-Reaching Staff in hand, he was about to attack the Earth Mole when a sharp female voice sounded beside him:
"Get lost!"
Instantly, lightning struck. A massive hammer wrapped in white-hot lightning streaked through the air, smashing fiercely onto the Earth Mole’s giant head.
At that moment, the Earth Mole’s ferocious face distorted, losing a tooth, and suddenly spat out the female cultivator just swallowed.
Qin Gengyun paused, the hammer maiden turned to him:
"Didn’t I say?! Let me hammer the Earth Mole half to death and then throw it to you, ugh, fighting half-way is the worst!"
She finished speaking crisply, raising the large hammer, and charged towards the Earth Mole.
Bang Bang Bang!!
The massive ancient demonic beast was hammered backward repeatedly, roaring furiously into the sky.
"How dare you!"
The little girl raised the hammer, a thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the hammer.
In an instant, the hammer shone with fierce electric light, slammed down mercilessly, sending the earth mole flying, crashing heavily, smashing a two-story pavilion! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
Its four horns were even smashed two off!
Around was a sound of gasping, everyone stared stunned at the small figure in the air.
Qin Gengyun was also dazed.
"Mjolnir?"
