Chapter 255-256: You’re Just a Damaged Card, Why Mention Breaking Up? Of Course I Want It All!

At the moment when Bai Moxue was about to make contact with the Ghost King.

Luo Sheng immediately activated 【Heaven’s Protection】 and 【Ice Water Protection】, and had Dongfang Muqing play music to enhance defensive power.

Instantly maximizing Bai Moxue’s defense.

Under these stacked conditions, her defense reached a terrifying level. Even if Ghost King  exerted all his power, he still couldn’t break through her armor.

Finally, intense black flames erupted.

Centered on them, it stirred up huge waves of energy, shaking the entire field. The ghost soldiers, who had lost all will earlier, were once again dazed by this sudden shockwave.

Many ghost soldiers shook their heads, feeling as if they had been on a roller coaster today, with ups and downs.

After the dust that blocked the sky and covered the earth dissipated.

Bai Moxue was seen unharmed.

The Ghost King, however, was covered in wounds, with large amounts of demonic energy constantly dissipating from his injuries, and his aura growing weaker and weaker.

Without the original terrifying pressure.

Lying on the ground struggling, wanting to exert the last bit of strength.

But unfortunately, he found that he couldn’t muster any strength in his body, his essence blood had been burned out, and now he was like a useless person, being held by the neck and beaten.

Bai Moxue was now stabbing his chest one knife at a time, gritting her teeth and saying, “Go down and keep my parents company!”

Stabbing in and pulling out one knife at a time, expanding the area of the wound.

Finally, she gripped the golden scissors with both hands.

Heavily smashing them into his heart.

Instantly, enormous demonic energy was released, and despair filled the Ghost King’s eyes as he watched his life constantly disappearing.

His body also shriveled up.

In the end, he turned into a ghost crystal and a piece of human skin paper.

This was the Ghost King’s original form.

Bai Moxue knelt on the ground with disheveled hair, bright red tears flowing down like a spring, continuously dripping onto her hands.

She looked at her blood-stained hands, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, but feeling more relieved.

She had personally slain her enemy.

Avenging her dead relatives, and also avenging herself for the suffering she had endured.

Her heart felt a surge of elation.

But after a long time, a wave of sadness welled up from the bottom of her heart. She hadn’t come to her senses for a long time, but just knelt there quietly.

Because she had burned three-quarters of her essence blood, which meant that half of her cultivation had disappeared, and her strength had plummeted drastically.

Similarly, after her cultivation was damaged, it would be extremely difficult to cultivate again.

She might even become a useless ghost for life, unable to cultivate.

Returning to her once weak state, a small ghost concubine that anyone could step on.

“Godmother…”

Xiao Xue, seeing this scene, quietly came to her side, not knowing what to say.

Now Bai Moxue’s strength was not even as good as hers, and she even vaguely felt that the binding soul contract was slightly loosening.

Luo Sheng slowly came to her side.

With a magnetic voice, he said, “Was it worth it?”

He felt quite heartbroken, able to sense that Bai Moxue’s strength had severely dropped.

Now she was only at the bronze level, no different from when he first met her.

Bai Moxue had already become a damaged card.

“This was the best chance to kill him. If we missed it, once he returned to Fengdu Ghost City, it would be even harder to deal with him.”

Bai Moxue raised her head, forcing a smile on her pale face.

Her messy hair made people feel very sympathetic.

Luo Sheng spoke with a hint of reproach but also helplessness, “Actually, you could have let me help you. You didn’t need to make this pointless sacrifice and still could have slain your enemy with your own hands.”

Bai Moxue gently shook her head.

Her delicate hands, covered in blood, held Luo Sheng’s thick and sturdy hand.

She explained, “I wanted to resolve this with my own ability, to personally end him. This was the mission I had to complete, and it was also the belief that kept me alive!”

Bai Moxue paused.

Then she continued to express her thoughts: “And I wanted to kill him at every moment, to avenge my relatives. My parents died before my eyes.

That feeling was too hard to bear, so I’ve been waiting for this day for a long, long time… Even when cultivating, I almost went into qi deviation.

So… I’m sorry, please forgive my willfulness.

Perhaps I lived for revenge, and I also thank you, darling, for accompanying me to complete all this, and for letting me experience this romantic time.

I haven’t fulfilled my duties as a wife. Now, I’m no longer worthy of your love. You have better choices.”

As Bai Moxue spoke, she looked towards the bewildered Alice.

Although she was silly and naive, there was no denying that her strength was very powerful, and more importantly, she was obedient and docile.

Even though Luo Sheng always said they were all puppets.

But through her contact with them during this battle, Bai Moxue fully believed that Alice and the others were living, breathing people.

With their own consciousness.

If they accompanied Luo Sheng, then Bai Moxue could be at ease. At least, Luo Sheng would have a powerful helper.

“She is more suitable for you than me. Now I am just a weak ghost.

Even my own soul crystal has been mostly burned, and my cultivation is almost at its end. I can’t give you much help, darling…”

As Bai Moxue spoke, tears kept welling up in her eyes, then flowing down her cheeks like fine streams.

But she still forced a smile.

She seemed to have made a painful decision.

But it was also the correct one.

Her whole life had been lived for revenge.

Now that her revenge was complete, perhaps living on had no meaning, and she should go to the underworld for a family reunion.

Moreover, she couldn’t bear children for Luo Sheng or become a virtuous wife and good mother.

A living human shouldn’t marry a ghost, it would only harm the other person. If she loved him, she should let him find a normal human as a wife, that was the right choice.

“Sigh…”

Luo Sheng let out a deep sigh.

He reproached helplessly, “You always overthink things, making people feel heartache.”

Luo Sheng also had a headache.

He didn’t have a single card in his hand that could put him at ease.

They all acted impulsively and recklessly.

Especially this one before him, who he originally thought was the most mature, at least considering things from all angles.

Unexpectedly, when it came to fighting her enemy, she was so frenzied, even harboring thoughts of mutual destruction.

If it wasn’t for him discovering in time and using a large number of defense cards, this girl would have been almost unsalvageable.

“I’m sorry…”

Bai Moxue lowered her head and softly said an apology.

Luo Sheng gently wiped the bloody tears from her face.

Stroking her forehead, “Don’t think so much. We made a promise before, that after you completed your revenge, we would get married. We can’t go back on that!”

Although Bai Moxue had lost most of her cultivation, which would be a thorny problem for many people, even impossible to heal.

For Luo Sheng, it was just a damaged card, not difficult to repair. He had plenty of experience in repairing damaged cards.

Things that people in this world couldn’t do, didn’t mean he couldn’t do them.

Bai Moxue raised her head in surprise.

“But… you shouldn’t marry a little woman like me now… Although I know that darling is very kind, carrying a useless burden will only drag you down and won’t bring you any help.”

“Am I such a materialistic person?” Luo Sheng pinched her soft cheeks, “Besides, you’re not a burden. Do you want me to keep an empty house alone?”

“Pfft…”

Bai Moxue broke into laughter through her tears, but after a while, tears started flowing down again.

“What’s wrong now?” Luo Sheng helplessly wiped her tears, but the tears in the corners of her eyes still “flowed unstoppably”.

Both of Luo Sheng’s hands were covered in bright red tears.

Then he gently embraced Bai Moxue.

And patted her back saying, “Anyway, your revenge is complete. This is something to be happy about. Let’s get married in 2 days. You can’t go back on your word, and there’s no room for negotiation.”

“Are you really… not going to regret it?” Bai Moxue asked, lying in his arms.

“Don’t think so much. After we’re married, we’ll go take over Fengdu Ghost City, and you can continue being your bandit queen.”

Luo Sheng said with a smile on his face.

Now was the best time to take over Fengdu Ghost City.

With the Ghost King dead, the ghost city would become unclaimed territory.

Especially since his large army had also become masterless. As long as he used threats and inducements, controlling them wouldn’t be a problem.

Moreover, who said damaged cards couldn’t be repaired?

As long as Bai Moxue was repaired, she could continue to become the next lord of Fengdu Ghost City.

The vast resources of Fengdu Ghost City would be enough for her to cultivate.

“Alright, it’s settled then. Don’t think too much, go back and recover well.”

While they were talking.

The ghost soldier army threw down their weapons and surrendered one after another, squatting on the ground as prisoners.

Even the previously fierce leopard man had now become docile and obedient, not daring to breathe loudly, squatting on the ground with “completely harmless” written all over his face.

As for the group of evil ghosts under him, they had long since been destroyed, without even a trace of their soul remnants to be seen.

The ones guarding them were just Alice and the Phantom Knight, the two of them easily suppressing hundreds of ghost soldiers.

Obviously, all the ghosts were scared out of their wits by Luo Sheng’s strength, unable to muster any thoughts of resistance.

At this moment.

Suddenly, from among the squatting ghost soldier army, two ghosts stood up.

The Phantom Knight thought someone wanted to rebel and was preparing to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

But they shouted loudly: “We want to see Lady Bai and Lord Luo, we have important matters to report!”

“What important matters?” The Phantom Knight’s low voice carried a hint of terrifying aura.

Soldier A and Soldier B trembled all over.

“Let me handle this, they are acquaintances.”

Luo Sheng had somehow arrived here and patted the Phantom Knight’s waist, indicating that he didn’t need to be so cautious.
