Chapter 9: Twin Souls

  After parting with these people, Qing Kuang still decided to go to Shuang Hun City. Du Lang and Yan Lang had been killed by her own hands, and just now she heard them say that Lie Lang seemed to have died too. The remaining ten people, as long as they didn't come to provoke her, she wouldn't take the initiative to provoke them either. As for Gui Jiang's vicious old thing expecting her to avenge him, let him dream on! And the Cui Ming ring on her hand, she would definitely find a way to get rid of it.

  The top priority now is to find her beloved son and the other thirteen people. Eighteen levels of hell? She'll search every level, she'll definitely find them! If all else fails, she'll make a name for herself and let these people come find her.

  Perhaps she had been in the desolate and barren spiritual realm for too long, so she was already used to it. Although the environment brought her tremendous pressure, as long as the faith in her heart did not collapse, there would always be a day when the clouds parted and the moon shone brightly.

  After walking for a long time, there was no sound around, and the suppressed gluttony couldn't help it anymore. It had to come out. Previously, it was suppressed by humans and couldn't move, but now that it could finally come out, how could it stay quietly in the demon beast domain?

  But it wasn't so, she had just put the dumplings out and they suddenly burst open one by one.

  "Master~ Master, waaahhh... I couldn't get out, I wanted to help you~" Big tears dropped down one after another, and no matter how hard he wiped with his small paws, they just wouldn't stop. He was so self-reproachful that he almost died! What kind of divine beast am I?! In times of crisis, I couldn't even help my master, and could only watch as he got hurt... it's killing me!

  "Master, are you alright? If only we were more useful..." As she said this, Yao'er also looked down in shame. Originally, she thought she was already very powerful, because never had a demonic plant been able to advance to become a divine beast before, and she was even the rare double-stemmed demonic plant. But when reality was placed before her eyes, only then did she realize how insignificant she was.

  "Master, I...I...I..." Blue Spirit was so anxious that she couldn't get her words out.

  Looking at the genuine worry of the beasts, a warm current suddenly flashed through her heart. Ah! With them by her side, she felt a little comforted in her heart. She stroked the small head of Tian Fei, wiping his wet face clean, and couldn't help but tease, "Ah, Tian Fei dropped his golden bean!"

  Upon hearing this, the gluttonous and arrogant palm lightly and quietly retorted, "Nothing's wrong..."

  "Master, we will become strong!" With a resolute gaze, You'er shook off the sadness and looked at Qing Kuang firmly, she would protect her master.

  "Still me, still me..." The blue glow in her tears flowed and circulated, reminding her of her existence.

  As for their intentions, she had long since seen through them. But in the end, it was still her own problem. If her own strength could reach the pinnacle, why would she be afraid of others? Not to mention being hurt by others at any moment, but also having to bear the threat of life at all times. Therefore, only if she truly became stronger, could she look down on the heroes and trample those who had bullied her under her feet.

  "It's not your fault, it's mine."

  "Master~"

  "Master!"

  "Master..."

  The beasts were anxious to explain, but were stopped by Qingkuang. "Alright, no need to say more. Let's work together, okay? Try to find Xier as soon as possible, and then we'll go home..." As she said this, Qingkuang's heart skipped a beat. Home! Did she have a home? Since she came here, she had been struggling all the time. The Nan Gong family in the imperial capital was Nan Gong Qingkuang's, so where was her home? Thinking about it, the Kuangsha Pavilion she founded with her own hands could be considered her home, but no matter what, she would never stay in this inhumane and desolate Ghost Realm, she must go back!

  Looking at the master who was immersed in his own thoughts, both Gluttony and You'er felt a bit inexplicable. What's wrong with the master? It made them feel very uncomfortable in their hearts. Compared to this kind of master, they preferred that overbearing master who took them everywhere to "plunder" and bully others.

  "Master~ are you thinking of Little Master?" Gluttony stared with wide eyes, tugging at her clothes, it must be so! He was the smartest, he must be able to guess what his master was thinking, the more he thought about it, the more he believed he was right.

  Just as Qing Kuang was about to respond, Tian Jue and Yao Er suddenly went on high alert, blocking Qing Kuang behind them, and the hair on Tian Jue's back stood up.

  Seeing them like this, Qing Kuang's heart also became more vigilant. There was not a single sound around, but the atmosphere had become somewhat tense. Suddenly, a golden shadow appeared in front of him. Before it could pounce on Qing Kuang, Tian Jue, with extremely fast speed, pounced on it and pinned it to the ground. The two beasts instantly became entangled, one black and one gold, neither yielding to the other. In the end, Tian Jue gained the upper hand, and the golden mass was bitten in the throat, letting out a mournful cry.

  Upon closer inspection, it was a golden-yellow magical beast. Its body was slightly smaller than that of the Gluttonous Beast. After the intense battle earlier, its fur was somewhat disheveled. It had oval-shaped ears and a pair of amber-colored eyes. Its face was chubby, just like the Gluttonous Beast's, but at this moment, the magical beast was shivering with fear, its eyes filled with pleading.

  "Rustle, rustle, rustle..."

  "Hooooo..."

  "Gluttony, let it go first!" I don't know what they were talking about, but if Gluttony can be subdued with one move, then it shouldn't be difficult to deal with.

  When she spoke, Gluttony reluctantly released the demon beast, baring its teeth and growling at it.

  The beast that was knocked down by the glutton got up shakily, tilted its head to look at the lunatic, then smiled fawningly, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth, and took two timid steps towards her. Being glared at by the glutton again, it quickly withdrew its feet back.

  Seeing this scene, Qing Kuang's heart was somewhat amused. What kind of demon beast is this? The demon beasts in the void ghost realm have always been cruel and brutal, how could there be one that is so clever and cunning?

  "Squeak squeak squeak"

  The little golden guy was about to speak when he was shouted back by Gluttony.

  "What's wrong, glutton?"

  "Master~ She said she likes you, humph!" He wouldn't let this despicable guy get the better of him! The master can only like him!

  The little guy likes her? Squatting down, lightly stretching out his hand to touch it, this little golden guy is even more beautiful now, its small tail wagging back and forth, its eyes shining brightly. Only seeing her little nose move, looking at Light's gaze became even more enthusiastic.

  "Master, master, don't you like her? Don't you like me anymore?" Gluttony said with a pitiful look, obviously waiting for Licht to give him a satisfactory answer.

  "Of course, the master likes to indulge." As soon as the arrogant words were spoken, the indulgent one immediately looked at the little golden guy with a complacent expression, his eyes showing off: See? You're out of luck!

  The little guy, however, completely ignored him, excitedly spinning around Ling Kuang in circles, then looked at her with a puzzled expression, clearly something was bothering her, and her amber-colored eyes were full of questions.

  Qingkuang kept staring at her, listening to her squeaking, and then anxiously rubbed his hair into an even greater mess. Then the little guy suddenly enlightened, and with a flourish, he produced a shiny pearl, with a milky white glow attached to it, looking like no ordinary object. Seeing Qingkuang's lack of reaction, he continued to take out many more treasures, presenting them to her one after another.

  As for the little one's behavior, I'm a bit puzzled, but looking at her expression, it seems like she wants to give it to him.

  "Is this for me?" Countless rare treasures, even many fairy-class artifacts were all placed in front of her. Hearing her question, the little guy hastily nodded, then anxiously squeaked and circled around her repeatedly.

  "What does 'gluttony' mean?"

  "Hmph! She said the master has treasures on him, and wants to exchange them with you!" The gluttonous creature glared at the little guy with annoyance, then turned its head away with a proud pout.

  Does she have a treasure? Apart from the dagger that had just been refined, what other treasures could she have? She placed the Heartless Dagger in front of the little fellow, and as a result, the little fellow looked at it twice, shook his head to indicate that it wasn't this one, and then gazed longingly at Qing Kuang.

  "This is all I have left that's precious."

  Squeak squeak squeak~

  She was given a quick glance, and the interpreter continued with an air of annoyance, "She says there's more!"

  Was it her elixir? But when she took out all the elixirs, the little guy shook his head again, and his expression became even more anxious. This wasn't it, that wasn't it either, and Leng Ke was getting a bit frustrated. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind - her greatest treasure was the Life Space! But these creatures couldn't enter the Life Space either! To confirm, she took out a Life Fruit, and instantly the eyes of both little guys lit up.

  He pounced on it with a whoop, but before he could even grab it, the bright red life had vanished, and upon closer inspection, it was found in the hands of the little golden guy, whose amber-colored big eyes sparkled brightly, just like a miser seeing a mountain of gold and silver.

  How could this be, snatching food from the glutton's mouth is like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth! A loud roar, and the two little guys started fighting again. Unexpectedly, the previously weak little guy didn't give in at all, his fur stood on end, and his aura began to turn ferocious, revealing four canine teeth, apparently ready to fight the glutton to the death.

  Just as the two little guys were about to fight, Light quickly took out another one and handed it to Gluttony. Unexpectedly, what should have been a calming effect escalated into an even bigger conflict. The golden little guy suddenly disappeared, only to reappear with both paws holding Life Fruits, grinning from ear to ear, his small white teeth gleaming in sync.

  He stared at his empty paws, then looked at the smug creature opposite him, and then back at his own paws again, repeating this process several times before he dared to believe that his fruit had been stolen. Suddenly, he was furious and let out a loud cry, wanting to pounce on her and bite her.

  Seeing the situation was not good, lightly crazy quickly pulled him over, hugging the furious Glutton tightly in his arms, and kept stroking his hair, "It's okay, it's okay, Glutton, there are still many masters..."

  "My Guagua~ mine! That's the gluttonous Guagua, waaah, return it to me, return it to me......" The usually bright and shiny eyes had turned red, clearly she was furious. Her sharp claws scratched out several lines on the ground, her whole body tense with energy, almost pulling free from Light's grasp.

  He completely ignored the certain beast that had turned into a glutton, and instead held two Life Fruits in his arms, not even seeing her eat. He just stared foolishly and smiled, then rubbed against her vigorously, clearly delighted beyond measure.

  Finally, the glutton also stopped struggling, only to have tears streaming down his face as he cried and said, "Glutton's Guo Guo... waaah, Glutton's... was taken away... Guo Guo, my Guo Guo..." Feeling that his grievances were not enough, he buried his head in Qing Kuang's chest and sobbed uncontrollably.

  This glutton has spent the most time with her and their feelings are also the deepest. Seeing this poor little thing, how can she bear to be ruthless?

  "Alright, alright, don't cry anymore. The master will give you another one, eat it quietly, don't let her see." This feeling is just like spoiling a child who eats alone.

  Wipe away the tears for Bao, lightly crazy quickly took out another and put it in his paw, instantly Bao's tears stopped, don't know how that little golden nose was so sensitive, brush turned head to look at them, eyes full of excitement. This time Bao also learned to be clever, shouted "Mine!" then swallowed the fruit in one gulp, small face puffed up out of shape.

  The little golden guy immediately looked at him with a bad expression, glanced at him lightly and then looked at himself in his arms, and suddenly smiled again. Suddenly her small nose moved, and the golden figure rushed out in an instant.

  As for this little thing that piqued her interest, she called out a greeting and followed along.

  It was clear that the little golden creature was waiting for her, otherwise she would have disappeared with her strange method earlier. Gradually, the sound of fighting came from the front, and neither side had the upper hand. However, what caught the attention of the crowd was indeed the little golden creature. With a flash of its beastly shadow, it entered the scene as if no one was there, and even the spiritual power barrier couldn't stop it. The golden afterimage flashed quickly through the crowd, then sat down on the side with a thud, holding all sorts of spoils in its arms. Its two paws touched this and that, overjoyed to the point of being unable to contain itself. The amber-colored eyes were full of bright light.

  Upon seeing this, Qingkuang's eyebrows rose in surprise. It seemed that this little fellow was a money grubber! Whenever he saw something good, he would snatch it into his own arms! Noticing Qingkuang's gaze, the little fellow excitedly ran over to her, held up his small paws for her to see, and then circled around her again. His originally joyful eyes suddenly turned puzzled once more.

  It's clear that for Qing Kuang, the only thing she considers precious is her personal space. However, trying to get close to her is useless. This thing is something that even if she wants to take it, she can't.

  The two groups of people who were in a desperate struggle didn't have time to care about them, and all they saw was an ugly-looking middle-aged man making a ruthless move, clearly intending to put the man in front of him to death. The surroundings already had countless corpses lying around, showing the intensity of the battle.

  "Hahaha, Double Soul, go die! This Double Soul City may be small, but since I, Hu Lang, have taken a liking to it, you'd better hand it over with both hands!" A powerful spiritual energy burst forth, clearly indicating that he was going all out.

  I didn't expect to run into two big shots here. Looking at the man with an ugly face and a large mole on his nose, it's clear that he is Hu Lang from the Thirteen Wolves of Hell. From his words, I can naturally tell the identity of the man opposite him. But why is Hu Lang fighting with the lord of Double Soul City? Isn't their leader also the lord of Void Ghost Realm? Is this a fight for territory or what?

  He thought the black-clad man would resist, but at this critical moment, the person who was fine just now seemed to have suddenly lost his mind, shouting loudly, "Mother... save me, save me... I'm afraid, brother, brother, save me... save me... mother, brother..."

  Even the pitiful appearance of the black-clad man did not arouse any sympathy from Hu Lang, and instead his face became even more ferocious and cruel.

  "Mother... brother... help..." The black-clad man was like a helpless child, tumbling to the ground in disarray, his face filled with terror as he desperately tried to scramble backward.

  The light madness was called to the heart by that voice, and his hands moved before his brain, directly stabbing the dagger into the back of the wolf, narrowly saving him from death.

  "Who ambushed me?" The wolf-like man let out a loud roar, eyeing the nun with malice. "What kind of stinky nun are you, daring to block my way? Are you tired of living?" Along with his words, both sides momentarily stopped, then continued fighting again.

  He rushed over to the man in black and asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"

  "Mother... I'm so scared, save me... don't hit me... don't..." The man curled himself up into a ball, stuttering and trembling with fear.

  "Go to hell!" Anyone who dares to block his way will go to hell! Otherwise, the name of Hell's Thirteen Wolves would be called in vain?

  Watching the incoming attack, Qingkong hastily set up a barrier for the two of them. Gourmand and You'er also joined the battle upon seeing this, making the already chaotic scene even more lively.

  "Seven thousand nine hundred and ninety-eight people have died at my hands, and now with you two added, it's finally a round number! Hahahaha!" Along with the wild words, Hu Lang immediately clashed with Qing Kuang.

  She dodged his attack with a spin, her face cold and crazy, the dagger following her heart's intent, even though she was pressed down and beaten, but didn't seem to be injured.

  "How embarrassing! You can't even make a whole number!" No one expected that at this moment, a shocking voice would come from behind Hu Lang. However, accompanied by this sound, Hu Lang looked incredulously at his heart position, then widened his eyes and fell to the ground with a thud, never to make another sound again.

  Even if he was careless, he didn't expect that the Hu Lang from Hell's Thirteen Wolves would be easily resolved like this? Looking at the black-clad man in front of him who was full of murderous aura, Leng Kong's heart skipped a beat, this person was different from just now.

  "Kill them all! Not a single one left!" The man picked up the black cloak beside him and said without any emotion, how could such a powerful person be the same one who was shouting for help just now?

  The wolf died, and the people he brought suddenly became like a defeated army without a leader, and even though they fled in all directions, they were still killed to the last man.

  "Lord! What about this woman?" The dual souls' subordinate reported after cleaning up the remaining situation.

  "Kill!"

  "But she just saved..."

  "If there is, I don't want to say it a second time!" He fastened his cloak and the two souls didn't have any attitude towards the person who saved their lives, and they coldly and ruthlessly decided the fate of the reckless one.

  Looking at the crowd slowly surrounding her, she carefully responded with a hint of madness. She shouldn't have softened her heart and saved him in the first place. Why didn't they just fight to the death earlier? Now it's too late, trouble has come knocking on her door.

  "Don't... don't... good sister... good person... won't kill, won't kill... take her back, take her back..." The man who had just given the order to kill her suddenly looked bewildered and foolish again, even smiling at her ingratiatingly.

  "Yes!" Looking at them surrounding her again, she didn't care about being reckless. She was originally going to go to Double Soul City anyway, and now it's perfect that someone is leading the way. She wants to see what this person has in mind.

  Everyone has left, the little golden guy looked at what was in his arms and then at the lightly swaggering back view, and with a whoosh also chased after.
