Chapter 25: If I do not kill her, I shall enter the Avici Hell and never be reincarnated

Seeing Fang Ningshuang once again, Luo Zhou could not help but feel a surge of sorrow!

Fang Ningshuang hesitated for a moment and said, "Looking at your deathly expression, you gloomy ghost, I really want to kill you!"

She said this, but there was not a shred of killing intent in her voice.

In fact, throughout this entire day, she had shown almost no killing intent at all.

The day passed peacefully; the purple cricket was not eaten.

The blood parrot said it wouldn't eat, so it didn't.

As they were about to part, Luo Zhou suddenly spoke

"Let's take a gamble!"

"On what?"

"Let our minds connect. I will share everything with you..."

To Fang Ningshuang, it felt as if she were in purgatory; she was sinking bit by bit. This was certain death!

"Connect our minds? No way, do you really want to sleep with me? And then have me bear your children?"

Luo Zhou was speechless. "What the hell!"

"Can we do it or not?"

"I'm asking you, can we do it or not?"

Fang Ningshuang remained silent for a long time before suddenly saying with determination, "I am willing!"

Having said that, she reached out to touch Luo Zhou.

Luo Zhou grasped her hands tightly. In an instant, it felt as if the two of them were merging into one!

Luo Zhou used his "Reward Good and Punish Evil" ability to merge with the Death Spirit, Fang Ningshuang!

He had done this countless times before to obtain all the information regarding the Moth Demon.

But this time, he didn't want to gain anything; he only wanted to share Fang Ningshuang's pain.

If one person's pain is shared by two, perhaps it will be lessened!

Suddenly, Fang Ningshuang smiled and said

"Actually, it's not that you love me. We won't be having children!"

"It's just that you feel me through your heart, you suffer my pain, and you want to share it with me. This... this... what do you call it... compassion?"

Luo Zhou shook his head and said

"I have never been part of a sect; to you, I am an illiterate. You ask me, but who can I ask? I am just an orphan; how could I understand those complexities..."

"Is it because one has walked through the rain themselves that they know how to hold an umbrella for others?"

At this moment, Fang Ningshuang was incredibly lucid, unlike her previous state of being a dazed hooligan.

She no longer possessed her former madness or her naive nonsense; instead, she possessed a certain spiritual wisdom, an infinite calmness, and nothing but calculation!

This was the true Fang Ningshuang, a natural-born noble lady!

Luo Zhou didn't know why it was so, but seeing the current Fang Ningshuang made him very happy. His sharing had been effective!

June 28th, Sunny!

After the sharing was completed yesterday, Luo Zhou had also returned to normal!

Although there were only five days left, Luo Zhou was not at all alarmed!

On the first of next month, he would deal with Liu Changlong; when it rained, he would kill the Old Crocodile Dragon!

At worst, he would die. What was there to fear!

What joy is there in life, and what fear is there in death!

In high spirits, he once again headed toward the outer garden of the City Lord's Mansion.

To his surprise, Fang Ningshuang was already standing there, waiting for him in silence!

"Morning!"

"Morning!"

After Luo Zhou greeted her, his sorrow became uncontrollable!

Yesterday, the sharing had failed!

Fang Ningshuang had completely collapsed!

Luo Zhou, a mere youth, had deluded himself into thinking he could use his powers to defy the Heavenly Dao.

He had failed.

The only reason Fang Ningshuang could still exist was due to the "Fate-Altering Spell" cast by the Fairy of Southern Spring.

Luo Zhou's actions yesterday had disrupted the spell's formation, so Fang Ningshuang was on the verge of collapsing and dying.

"Luo Zhou, do not be sad. This is a good thing for me," Fang Ningshuang said calmly!

"From yesterday until now, this has been the most lucid moment of my three years. This is the real me, Fang Ningshuang!"

"I don't want to return to that state of chaos. Even if it means death, I am willing! I have already said my goodbyes to my family! Luo Zhou, my young lover, do not be sad!"

Hearing this, Luo Zhou actually burst into tears, the tears flowing down uncontrollably.

Fang Ningshuang, however, did not care at all. She shouted

"Hurry up and do it! Do not hesitate!"

As she spoke, the blood parrot stepped out, approaching Luo Zhou uncontrollably!

"Luo Zhou, kill it! Smash its head!"

Luo Zhou looked at her, just as he was about to speak...

The blood parrot spoke: "If I die, you will die too!"

The voice was exactly that of the Fairy of Southern Spring, but it was incredibly distorted.

Since it was a manifestation of the Fairy's Golden Core domain, it was naturally so.

"We live and die together!"

"Luo Zhou, do not let me down!"

Fang Ningshuang was incredibly calm, resolute, and unshakable!

She didn't waste a single word; she just acted. She went for it!

Such an outstanding genius, and upon reaching the Heaven and Earth Dao Sect, she could only be an outer sect maid?

Luo Zhou let out a long sigh. In an instant, he drew his spear, activated the Strength of Nine Oxen, and threw...

The Dragon-Slaying Thorn flashed, and with a *squelch*, the blood parrot's head was shattered!

Its protective true qi had been suppressed by Fang Ningshuang and could not be activated.

However, the blood parrot's head began to slowly regenerate...

"Killing me won't be that easy! Your father wasn't the only one who tried to kill me. Hehe, what use was it? I possess the power of a day and a land..."

Fang Ningshuang looked at it and simply said softly, "Die!"

A Curse Master! Fang Ningshuang was actually a Curse Master!

The blood parrot froze, then snarled fiercely

"Let's die together, you little wench..."

With a *squelch*, the blood parrot turned into thousands of droplets of blood, splashing in all directions.

Fang Ningshuang shook her head and said, "Then just die. It's no big deal!"

Having said that, she slowly lay down.

"You're such a liar. How could that cloud look like a horse?"

Luo Zhou also lay down and said, "It really did look like a horse!"

"Remember, send me into reincarnation..."

"Don't worry, I've already sent many people into reincarnation. It won't be a problem..."

"By the way, I will definitely kill the Fairy of Southern Spring."

"You're crazy. She is a Golden Core True Person. One look from her and you'll be dead..."

"She is greedy at her core; she just wanted to test it out. A trivial decision destroyed your life and everything you had. The seventy people who died in Cuiling City died because of her! Perhaps she didn't even take it seriously and has long since forgotten. But no one should be able to hurt others and just walk away with a smile without paying any price!"

"I swear, if I do not kill her, I shall enter the Avici Hell and never be reborn!"

Luo Zhou spoke sentence after sentence, his thoughts a jumble.

Fang Ningshuang made no sound, for she could no longer hear him; she had turned into blood and completely dissipated.

After a long time, Luo Zhou stood up. He glanced at the empty grass and walked back home, stumbling alone.

Back at home, Luo Zhou was in a daze, as if he had lost his soul. Gradually, as midnight approached, a loud, surging sound came from the courtyard.

All the Death Spirits that had been drained of life had arrived.

Luo Zhou looked quickly; all seventy-one people had come!

The first person was indeed Fang Ningshuang; she was looking at Luo Zhou with a smile.

Luo Zhou was immensely moved and rushed toward her.

But he was blocked by the Death Spirits. One by one, they lightly touched him, passing something over...

After the contact, the Death Spirits were liberated, slowly transforming back into their appearances from when they were alive.

There was no longer any hideousness or bloodstains; they had all become ordinary people.

They looked at Luo Zhou with gratitude, thanks, bows, and salutations.

Luo Zhou gritted his teeth and lit three sticks of incense!

"Everyone, let everything dissipate. Let the past stay in the past. Return to the cycle of reincarnation, and return to the mortal world as soon as possible!"

Everyone bowed to Luo Zhou and slowly dispersed, returning to reincarnation!

In the end, only Fang Ningshuang remained.

Luo Zhou wanted to get close to her, but he couldn't; there seemed to be a protective layer around her.

She waved her hand and said gracefully

"The mark of the sect... if I am reborn as a human and am still in the Yinzhou World, the sect will surely find me. When that time comes, we shall meet again!"

Unable to move forward, he could only watch from afar!

Luo Zhou suddenly shouted, "Have a safe journey! After you are reborn, I'll treat you to a big feast—no more purple crickets!"

Fang Ningshuang said, "I am leaving. I hope we can meet again in the next life!"

If she were still human, if she were still in the Yinzhou World... but how easy would that be! Even if he found her, the past life would be the past, and she would not remember!

Luo Zhou still waved vigorously

"Smooth sailing! Have a safe journey!"

Fang Ningshuang also smiled, but tears welled in the corners of her eyes as she gradually faded away.

Luo Zhou, also smiling, left tears behind. Farewell!

With that, all the Death Spirits dissipated.

Luo Zhou stood motionless. Slowly, his "Reward Good and Punish Evil" ability quietly activated!

"Luo Zhou, sensing the plea of the Death Spirits: a spirit has committed evil; punish it!"

"Punishing evil: slaying the Moth Demon's Full Moon Blood Parrot. Goodness detected; reward is due!"

"Reward Good and Punish Evil complete. Reward!"
