Chapter 6
……
The exit of the Hell Road is located in a small forest outside the City of Slaughter.
Not knowing how long he had been asleep, Nan Feng opened his eyes in a daze.
Fresh air, the fragrance of flowers and grass, the sound of flowing water; Nan Feng's heart moved, and his body recovered from a small snake to a human form.
"Xiao Feng?"
Not far away, Bibi Dong, hearing the commotion, turned her head.
Nan Feng walked toward the river in a daze.
It's water! Damn it, living water!
Not blood!
No corpse stench! No blood stains! No messy smells! F***!!!
Damn it!!!
Finally out!!
"Xiao Feng?" Bibi Dong walked over with some concern, squatting on the side, looking at Nan Feng who was crying silently.
"Ah!!"
Nan Feng suddenly burst into tears, tears flowing uncontrollably.
He was just a college student who had just graduated and didn't know anything! F***!
Being short-lived was one thing, but throwing him into this kind of godforsaken place!
Others start in Holy Soul Village or Spirit City, or at worst, a brain-damaged prince! F***! Throwing him into the City of Slaughter! Watched too much Shawshank Redemption, right? Giving him a Shawshank Redemption of the City of Slaughter!
F***!!!
……
After crying for a while, Nan Feng finally stopped his tears.
Six years! Six years of hellish days! God knows how he, a normal person, lived in this godforsaken place!
"Don't worry, we're out..." Bibi Dong helped Nan Feng wipe away his tears with some heartache.
In a godforsaken place like the City of Slaughter, for a child, she could hardly imagine how Nan Feng lived before. If it weren't for that healing ability, he would have been divided and eaten as a snack by those Fallen Ones long ago.
There is no food in the City of Slaughter; spirit power is the only source of life.
And as long as Spirit Masters have spirit power, they don't need to eat to a certain extent. Weak people need to regularly contribute their blood to strong people.
And for children without the ability to resist, she had seen many infant skeletons in the corners of the streets.
Therefore, Nan Feng being able to survive... is a miracle in itself.
"How does it taste?"
Bibi Dong simply made a grilled fish for Nan Feng.
"Doesn't taste good," Nan Feng said bluntly.
"No seasoning, no fishy smell removed, not grilled through, and a bit burnt..."
Bibi Dong's face fell.
You're getting picky now?
Bibi Dong, who was a bit unhappy, reached out to snatch the grilled fish from Nan Feng's hand.
Nan Feng hurriedly dodged.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Didn't you say it didn't taste good? If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it."
"Don't you know what 'hunger makes everything taste good' means?"
"..."
……
……
After resting, Bibi Dong took Nan Feng on the road.
Since the clothes on his body were all stripped from dead people, now that he had left the City of Slaughter, Nan Feng didn't want to leave any trace of that godforsaken place on his body at all.
So, he threw away his clothes and turned into a large golden cat.
Just right, adapt to the body of a feline; there should be many opportunities to turn into a kitten or a big cat in the future.
"Speaking of which, why did you go to the City of Slaughter?" Nan Feng followed Bibi Dong, shaking his head.
Don't talk about training. In the thousands of years of the City of Slaughter, the Killing Gods who successfully left the City of Slaughter, including Tang Hao who left a few years ago, only four people are known to the Spirit Hall.
This survival rate, training?
Are you kidding? "My past is very shameful; you wouldn't want to know," Bibi Dong's face was somewhat unnatural.
"Shameful?" Nan Feng became more curious.
"How shameful?"
"..."
Bibi Dong stopped her steps, "Do you really want to know?"
"Of course," Nan Feng said.
"We've relied on each other for survival in the City of Slaughter for three years, don't you trust me yet?"
"Perhaps after hearing this story, you won't be interested in me anymore," Bibi Dong said.
"Not interested? Were you a man before?" Nan Feng asked in confusion.
"Because of some special reason, you turned into a woman?"
"Or are you intersex?"
"..." Bibi Dong.
What the hell?!
"Or..."
"Stop!" Bibi Dong interrupted hurriedly.
"I'll tell you! Stop guessing!"
What is going on in this guy's brain? Bibi Dong, not wanting to be speculated about by Nan Feng, chose to use concise language to tell the story of her short first half of her life: awakening her martial soul, joining the Spirit Hall, showing talent in the Spirit Academy, being accepted as a disciple by the Pope, meeting Yu Xiaogang, her heart fluttering, and then... being defiled by Qian Xunji.
That was the general content.
Then, three years ago, the daughter Bibi Dong gave birth to, Qian Renxue, awakened the Six-Winged Angel martial soul. That aura that disgusted her almost made her unable to resist killing that child.
Although she held back in the end, Qian Renxue was also scared silly.
Coincidentally, that scene was seen by Qian Renxue's grandfather, Qian Daoliu.
Qian Daoliu was worried that Bibi Dong would go crazy again sometime and be detrimental to the pride of his Qian family.
He wanted to kill her, but it wasn't convenient to make a move.
After all, a grandfather killing a mother—this kind of thing was a bit too much of a blow for a child.
After Bibi Dong gave birth to Qian Renxue, Qian Xunji never made a move on her again, also because he was worried that Qian Renxue would have problems after knowing this in the future.
Therefore, after Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji discussed it, they decided to send her into the City of Slaughter; whether she lived or died depended on fate.
Coincidentally, Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect had just successfully walked out of the City of Slaughter, making the Clear Sky Sect famous. The Spirit Hall Saintess choosing to enter the City of Slaughter at this time could also show that the younger generation of the Spirit Hall was no weaker than the Clear Sky Sect.
And even if this matter failed, it was a very normal thing.
After all, for thousands of years, so many geniuses, and disciples of the Spirit Hall and major sects had entered the City of Slaughter for training more than once, but only those few people successfully walked out of the City of Slaughter.
If it succeeded, it would be a huge boost to the Spirit Hall's appeal; if it failed, it was also normal, and the Spirit Hall wouldn't lose anything. It could also let Bibi Dong disappear in a justified way, and no one would know that this sacred Angel family had had such shameful things happen.
The Pope raped the Saintess? A sacred and pure Angel family did such a thing? If this matter got out, what would happen to the Spirit Hall?
What would happen to the faith in the Angel God? In the ten thousand years of history of the Spirit Hall, was this really the first time they had done such a thing? Could it be that this was just the first time everyone discovered it? How many shameful things did this Spirit Hall, which boasted of being bright, great, and upright, actually have?
Once this matter was exposed, the blow to the Spirit Hall would be terrifying. If someone else kicked them while they were down, it wouldn't be impossible for this official Spirit Master organization, which had stood for ten thousand years, to be severely damaged.
After all, the Spirit Hall's slogan and faith were the bright, great, and upright Angel God, placing themselves in a position of worrying about the world. They enjoyed the benefits brought by this bright, great, and upright image and obtained huge profits. So, when this bright, great, and upright image shattered, the things obtained because of it would naturally be lost.
"So, why didn't you just expose this matter?" Nan Feng asked in confusion.
"You want to take revenge on the Qian family. Expose this matter, and then operate it casually. There will be no shortage of people willing to help you establish a victim image and criticize the Spirit Hall. Moreover, the Spirit Hall is powerful. Just right, take this opportunity, the Seven Great Sects and the Two Great Empires you mentioned can justifiably unite to attack the Spirit Hall."
"Facing the condemnation of the world, how many Spirit Masters in the Spirit Hall can continue to stay? Humans, after obtaining benefits, pay the most attention to face."
"As long as the Two Great Empires and the Seven Great Sects you mentioned give a little more benefit, it's entirely possible to make the Spirit Hall's hearts fall apart."
The power of public opinion is terrifying, not to mention this kind of organization that establishes an extreme image for itself. Once Bibi Dong's matter is exposed, the Spirit Hall's credibility will plummet, and the image established before will also shatter rapidly.
Since Tang Chen of the Clear Sky Sect disappeared, the balance between the Seven Great Sects and the Spirit Hall had already tilted. Plus, Qian Daoliu, this Grand Elder, was different from before; he had the ambition to let the Spirit Hall annex the continent, and everyone had already felt the crisis.
Now, having such an opportunity to let everyone establish a unified front and plot for benefits, those people would definitely not miss it.
As for the hearts of the people, this thing is a joke.
Most people have no brains; they believe whatever others say. Having seen countless cyberbullying plots, he was the clearest about this point.
Moreover, humans are social animals, and Spirit Masters also have their own families. The Spirit Hall is like a powerful company. Once this company is exposed for a scandal, the employees working in this company, as well as their families, will also suffer from public opinion violence.
And don't talk about the Spirit Hall pushing directly. Once the war starts, it means killing and death. And when the war starts, who cares if you are a commoner or a Spirit Master? The Spirit Masters of the Spirit Hall come from the Two Great Empires and various small countries. Helping the Spirit Hall destroy their own country? Destroy their own home? Are you brain-damaged? At this time, the Two Great Empires and the Seven Great Sects don't need to give any higher benefits; they just need to be on par, or even less, and there will be plenty of people willing to jump ship.
Public opinion is a small matter. Bibi Dong's matter is mainly about giving other Spirit Master organizations besides the Spirit Hall a reason to justifiably unite.
A righteous cause—these four words are very important. No matter how ridiculous it is, you have to pull it out.
