Chapter 131

Ma Xiaoling's pretty face was a picture of confusion.

"Young Master really likes to mess around," Ma Xiaoling said.

"Young Master, how did I travel through time?"

"You really don't know?" Jiang Nan asked.

"I don't," Ma Xiaoling said. "I didn't expect to run into Great-Aunt when she was young. I originally wanted to ask her how to go back."

"That must be the variable," Jiang Nan said.

"Don't worry, you can go back," Jiang Nan said.

Once the Guanyin's Tears of the Mortal World disappeared, it would be fine.

The two walked together, and Jiang Nan looked at this land.

It was precisely the time of foreign invasion.

The mountains and rivers were shattered, and the land was scarred.

In the distance, where ordinary people couldn't see clearly, Jiang Nan could see everything.

Everywhere there was gunfire and smoke, and the wilderness was littered with bones.

The entire land was wailing in sorrow, and the air was filled with blood and desolation.

If one wasn't in the midst of it, one truly couldn't comprehend it.

"Eh? There really is a mountain spirit," Jiang Nan said as he walked, looking toward a cliff on the side.

Ma Xiaoling also looked over; sure enough, there was someone spying.

Seeing that they had been discovered, the mountain spirit turned and ran.

"Can you run?" Jiang Nan said.

"Let me see what you are."

He didn't even seem to move, but with a flip of his hand, the shadow that had already fled far away was caught in his palm.

It even revealed its original form.

"So it's a fox," Jiang Nan said.

The fox was still struggling, trying to turn its head to bite Jiang Nan's wrist.

However, Jiang Nan was holding it by the neck; no matter how it thrashed, it was futile.

Soon, its neck was almost crushed, and only whimpering remained.

"Is fox meat delicious?" Jiang Nan looked at Ma Xiaoling.

"Oh," Ma Xiaoling's beautiful eyes flickered. "Probably not."

"Don't eat me, don't eat me! I'm a good spirit, I've never harmed anyone..." the little fox cried out, its voice female.

"Is that so?" Jiang Nan said. "Are you delicious?"

"I'm not delicious, wuwu... Why are you so cruel? You'd even eat such a cute fox."

"Hehe, alright then," Jiang Nan tossed it away casually.

The fox did a somersault on the ground, dodged far away, and with a flash of its phantom, transformed into a little girl.

"So these spirits really do exist," Jiang Nan watched with curiosity.

Its strength was mediocre, but since it could transform, it indeed counted as a demon.

In this world, it seemed there were White Snakes and Green Snakes, so it wasn't strange to have other spirits.

"What's your name?" the little girl looked at Jiang Nan.

"Why, still want to take revenge on me?" Jiang Nan asked.

"No, no, thank you for letting me go."

"Oh, will you repay the kindness later?" Jiang Nan said.

"Jiang Nan, remember it," Jiang Nan smiled.

"I'm leaving," the little girl flashed and ran away.

"Young Master, in legends, foxes repay kindness by offering themselves," Ma Xiaoling laughed.

"I've read those touching stories too, like *Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio*," Jiang Nan said.

The two ate some food and walked around.

They both felt a sense of novelty toward this bygone era.

Ma Xiaoling still decided to go find her Great-Aunt.

There were some things she wanted to ask.

As a result, she saw her Great-Aunt provoking men again, peeking at a man bathing.

"Can I say I don't know her?"

"And she said she was going to catch a mountain spirit. Can she be any more unreliable?" Ma Xiaoling blushed.

"You don't look like your Great-Aunt, but actually, your Great-Aunt is quite genuine," Jiang Nan laughed.

"Am I not?" Ma Xiaoling said; she was also quite free-spirited.

"Your Great-Aunt hugged me enthusiastically, but you didn't."

"Fine, fine, fine, hug, come here," Ma Xiaoling huffed.

Modern people, this was normal, right?

"Who's there?"

"It's you two hateful mountain spirits again."

"Take this!" Ma Danna sensed movement, brandished her Demon-Subduing Rod, and flew over again.

"Great-Aunt, I really am your descendant, Ma Xiaoling."

"Is that so? Then what are you here for?"

"I don't know how I got here," Ma Xiaoling said. As the two spoke, they were still exchanging blows.

The Demon-Subduing Rod moves were identical.

"The women of the Exorcist Dragon Clan Ma family must dedicate their entire lives to killing the Zombie King Jiang Chen; they cannot fall in love, and even more so, they cannot cry for a man..." Ma Xiaoling said.

"Little mountain spirit, how many of this young lady's secrets have you peeked at? You even know my Ma family's ancestral teachings," Ma Danna said.

"It seems I can't let you live today."

"You..." Ma Xiaoling was annoyed.

"Young Master, you're still watching the show?"

"Young Master? Aren't you a mountain spirit?"

"Bewitched by this little mountain spirit? Haha, handsome, I'll save you," Ma Danna laughed.

"Actually, I have a question," Jiang Nan said. "What kind of ancestral teaching is that? You can't fall in love, so how do you pass down the lineage?"

"Do you just get married directly?"

"That works too, straight to the bridal chamber, tee-hee..." Ma Danna said.

"I'm going crazy," Ma Xiaoling said.

Her Great-Aunt was too wild and too difficult to deal with when she was young.

Their methods were the same, and they couldn't even fight.

Afterward, Ma Xiaoling pulled Jiang Nan away.

"Mountain spirit, why are you taking my man away?" Ma Danna said.

"..." Ma Xiaoling.

This is my friend, not my ancestor. Great-Aunt, what do you mean by that?

"Your Great-Aunt is quite interesting," Jiang Nan laughed.

"You're still laughing," Ma Xiaoling was puzzled.

"I think I know what I should do," Ma Xiaoling said.

"If I join forces with Great-Aunt right now to find Jiang Chen and deal with him, there should be a chance, right?"

"Normally, there wouldn't be, unless Jiang Chen is in an abnormal state," Jiang Nan said.

"Can you do it, Young Master?" Ma Xiaoling had seen him.

"I haven't seen him, so it's hard to say," Jiang Nan said.

If both women in this state had a chance, he certainly could do it.

If it were the legendary Zombie Ancestor, he definitely wouldn't be strong enough for now.

As they spoke, the two were attracted by a sound. ===== CHAPTER 132 =====
