Villains: Starting with the Landlady

Page 155

Ling Yun's figure transformed into a white light and flew towards the Rakshasa Cave. At first, it was completely unfamiliar to him, but after seeing a flock of cranes and passing them, Ling Yun suddenly felt familiar with them.

There's no mistake, this is the scene when I traveled here!

He immediately continued flying according to his memory, at a speed much faster than he had in his dream when he first arrived.

Soon, the familiar mountain came into view, and he slowed down and landed in front of the cave.

"Rakshasa Cave... Hmph, Rakshasa hag, I'm back again!"

He couldn't kill the Rakshasa Witch before because it was a forced plot kill, but now it's different; he can toy with the Rakshasa Witch to death!

Cough cough, in the ordinary sense, playing to death.

As soon as he stepped into the cave, those familiar little monsters rushed over again. However, this time he didn't even draw his sword. Countless sword energies overflowed and directly slaughtered all those demons.

Just as he was about to reach the hiding place of the Rakshasa witch, a wisp of green smoke appeared, and an ugly earth monster appeared in front of him.

"Great hero, do you still remember me?"

"Of course I remember."

Ling Yun smiled slightly. He had given him the Chunyang Sword in his dream and asked him to use it to slay the monster. Now he should have succeeded in slaying it.

"Thanks to you, I have vanquished the Azure Dragon! This humble demon has been waiting here for a long time to return the divine sword to you, my esteemed hero!"

After saying that, the earth monster returned the Pure Yang Sword to Ling Yun and also gave him a piece of jade.

"This jade is made from dragon blood and is called Azure Dragon Blood Jade. Wearing it can soothe the body and has a greater effect on women."

Ling Yun was somewhat lost in thought when he saw the jade pendant, because it was an important item for achieving Ling'er's perfect ending.

"Thank you."

"Oh, I should be the one thanking you, hero!"

The earth monster laughed and turned into a wisp of green smoke, disappearing into the cave.

Ling Yun looked at the Pure Yang Sword. This weapon was also excellent for subduing demons, but it was far inferior to a divine weapon like the Demon-Suppressing Sword. More importantly, he couldn't fully unleash the Demon-Suppressing Sword's immense power because his own strength was limited.

He cleaved open the innermost cave with a single sword strike, and with a piercing scream, the hideous Rakshasa witch rushed out.

"Who are you?"

Ling Yun gripped the Demon-Suppressing Sword and charged straight at her without uttering a single word!

Surrounded by countless giant sword energies, the illusory figure behind Ling Yun made him appear like an immortal being.

Sword God!

With a single sword strike, the entire cave began to tremble violently. Then, a dazzling light pierced through the cave ceiling, and the entire cave was split in two!

The Rakshasa witch was instantly killed, and all the demons in the cave were turned into phantoms under the terrifying power of the Demon-Suppressing Sword and the Sword God.

Once everything had settled, Lingyun hovered in mid-air on his sword, standing with his hands behind his back.

"You think you're immortal? You want to regenerate health? Let's see if you'll still die!"

Ling Yun finally got his revenge. He had never met anyone in his life who could overpower him and still live a good life! Of course, his sister was an exception.

He scanned the surroundings several times to make sure nothing was left behind before steer his flying sword away.

Before long, a flying sword came flying in; it was none other than Dugu Yuyun, the Sword Saint and leader of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

"This great demon was actually killed..."

Feeling the sword energy below, Dugu Yuyun exclaimed in surprise, "It's still a move from our Shu Mountain Sword Sect! Could it be some hidden master uncle or grandmaster from our sect?"

He frowned and pondered for a moment, then finally returned to Mount Shu.

Chapter 358 Returning to the Temple

Ling Yun returned to Dali, this time quietly, without saying goodbye to anyone.

He arrived at the Nuwa Temple. It was already dark, and the temple was empty except for the statue of Nuwa, which was still emitting a faint glow.

"Ling Yun, are you ready?"

He heard Lin Qing'er's familiar voice in his ear. Ling Yun looked towards a corner where an ordinary-looking woman was standing.

"Yes."

"Then put your hand on it," Lin Qing'er said softly.

Ling Yun touched the snake's tail of the Nuwa sculpture, and that familiar white light struck again.

"Lingyun, see you again someday..."

Lin Qing'er's words murmured in his ear, and then Ling Yun heard some strange mutterings, very low and close to his eyes.

"Goddess Nuwa, please bless Lingyun and help him return safely..."

slap~

Ling Yun fell to the ground, still a little dazed.

"Brother Yun!"

A girl's fragrance wafted from the side, and Ling Yun pulled her into his arms, asking hesitantly, "Are you Anu?"

"Brother Yun, did you hit your head?"

Anu buried her face in her arms and nuzzled against her: "It's so good that you're back, I was so worried about you! Humph, you big bad guy, you actually dared to touch the statue of Goddess Nuwa, now you've been punished!"

Ling Yun found it somewhat amusing, but he didn't intend to explain. He simply looked around and, sure enough, spotted the familiar woman.

"Water Spirit Pearl!"

Ling Yun took out the bead, and the girl was overjoyed, hugging his neck and kissing him several times.

"Brother Yun, where did you find it? Oh, it must have been given to you by the Goddess Nuwa, right!"

"Let me get up first."

Ling Yun gently pushed her away, got up from the ground, and handed the bead to the woman under the girl's questioning gaze.

"Brother Yun?"

"Anu, do you know who she is?"

The girl shook her head. This Bai Miao woman had been here since she could remember. She cleaned the Nuwa Temple every day and spent the rest of her time worshipping. She had never seen her do anything.

"Queen Witch, the Bai Miao people are currently suffering from a severe drought. I think you should know what to do, right?"

"The Witch Queen!?"

The girl immediately ran over, but before she could speak, the woman waved her arm and transformed back into Lin Qing'er, only looking much more mature than before.

"I already said, I'm no longer the Witch Queen. Just call me Lin Qing'er."

Half an hour later, all the Bai Miao people gathered at the Nuwa Temple, and the Nanman King held Lin Qing'er tightly, refusing to let go. The two had always had a very good relationship, like sisters; when Lin Qing'er was to marry the Witch King Zhao Ye, the Nanman King had cried for quite a while.

"Where did this Water Spirit Orb come from?"

The Southern Barbarian King asked curiously after seeing the beads in her hand.

"Mother, it was given to Aunt Qing'er by Brother Yun!"

"Brother Yun?"

"Yeah...wait, where did he go?"

Anu scanned the crowd several times but did not find Ling Yun.

"Aman, leave the rain-praying matter to me. You go and take a look outside Dali."

"How can this be? I am the head of a tribe. Such a major matter... Wait!" The Southern Barbarian Queen seemed to realize something, and her voice trembled slightly as she said, "Outside Dali?"

Lin Qing'er smiled slightly: "The Holy Maiden should have told you that fallen leaves return to their roots, and that all things begin and end with a cause."

The Nanman Queen made no attempt to hide her shock. She turned to her daughter and grabbed her shoulders tightly: "Anu, what's the full name of that Brother Yun you mentioned?"

"Ling Yun."

In the familiar woods on the outskirts of Dali.

Ling Yun stood there idly, not wanting to acknowledge the Southern Barbarian King in public, lest she become agitated and damage his prestige in the eyes of the Bai Miao people.

Anu is still too naive. He was afraid that Anu would talk too much and say something wrong, so when Anu went back to call her clansmen over, he told Lin Qing'er about it.

A moment later, hurried footsteps sounded behind him. Ling Yun turned around and saw...

It's Ten Thousand Gu Devouring the Heavens!

This is a powerful spell from the Miao region, which uses Gu worms to attack over a wide area, making it almost impossible to dodge; one can only withstand it.

It seems that the Southern Barbarian King harbors quite a bit of resentment towards him!

Ling Yun didn't make a move. Instead, he stood there quietly. The overwhelming swarm of Gu worms flew towards him, but instead of attacking him, they surrounded him.

"Hey Ah Man, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?"

Ling Yun looked at the woman walking towards him with amusement. The current Southern Barbarian King had lost the naivety of her youth and was more like a dignified clan leader.

"Ling Yun, you dare to come back!"

"I told you, I need to take care of some things..."

"Tch, fifteen years! What could possibly take you fifteen years to accomplish!"

The Southern Barbarian King dispersed the Gu worms, walked straight up to him, grabbed his collar with one hand, but stared at him for a long time without making a move.

"I was transported back to the past by the goddess Nuwa..."

The young man recounted these events in detail, and the Southern Barbarian King went from initial astonishment to eventual silence.

"So, you know perfectly well that you're only staying there for a while and will come back, so why did you bother to interact with me?"

Ling Yun remained silent. The Southern Barbarian Queen was so angry that she wanted to punch his handsome face, but to her surprise, Ling Yun pulled her into his arms.

"Aman, I'm a very possessive person. I'm afraid something might happen in these fifteen years. I'm afraid you'll fall for another man..."

"So, you'd rather have a girl who's just turned 20 and has a child wait for you alone for 15 years!?"

"sorry."

"You..." The Southern Barbarian King still harbored some resentment towards him, but after hearing the man say sorry, his heart softened, and he could only pinch the soft flesh on the man's waist. "Hmph, to tell you the truth, I'll stop waiting for you after a few years. There are plenty of good men in the world, I... um!"

Ling Yun sealed her red lips with his own, and after a long while, he looked at her mature and beautiful face and smiled, saying, "Aman, you wouldn't do that."

"Why are you so confident..."

Ah Man stared at him intently: "If you had told me back then, I would have been willing to wait even 20 years."

Ling Yun kissed her forehead again, then held A-Man's cheeks in his hands and said, "I will prove with my actions that I still like you."

Aman looked at the look in his eyes and exclaimed in astonishment, "Ling Yun, you're not going to...stop...you bastard!"

..............................

..............................

..............................

As the heavy rain fell, the entire city of Dali was covered in water, and countless Bai, Miao, and Han people rushed outside to cheer.

The Southern Barbarian King and Anu looked up at the rain in the sky. This was a miracle they had been longing for for many years, and it had finally come to pass!

The two women watched Ling Yun fly away on his sword. The daughter, Anu, pouted and said, "Mother, why didn't you let me go with you?"

"They're going to reunite with their relatives, why are you meddling in their business!"

Looking at Dali in the heavy rain, Anu spread her arms, tilted her head back, and closed her eyes: "Mother, the rain feels so good!"

"Yes, we have to thank Qing'er for this!"

"What?!" Anu looked at the Southern Barbarian King with dissatisfaction. "We should also thank Brother Yun!"

"Him? A heartless scumbag, there's nothing to thank him for."

Anu chuckled, seemingly struck by a sudden thought, and started running in the heavy rain.

As the Southern Barbarian King gazed at his daughter's figure, his thoughts drifted back to more than ten years ago, when she too was carefree...
