Chapter 339: Incomplete Soul
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan looked up and saw a mirror hanging in mid-air, its dark surface facing her, emitting a black light towards herself.
This treacherous thing had almost extracted Xiaonan and Little Yuanxi’s souls just now.
Her eyes brimmed with anger as she raised her hand and swept it.
Her arcane power transformed into a sharp sword, cleaving towards the Yin-Yang mirror.
The Yin-Yang mirror didn’t shatter but violently shook in mid-air.
The old man who controlled the Yin-Yang mirror let out a sudden splutter and spewed a mouthful of blood.
Gu Qingluan temporarily placed her son to the side, using her finger as a brush to draw a formation around them. Then, she swiftly moved in front of the old man, striking his forehead with the palm of her hand.
Mr. Gui, suppressed by her imposing aura, showed a terrified expression. He had long experienced this woman’s abnormal strength. When this palm struck, he knew he was in grave danger.
He shouted hoa.r.s.ely, “You can’t kill me!”
A faint smile tugged at the corner of Gu Qingluan’s mouth, her eyes filled with icy killing intent, and her hand’s momentum didn’t waver.
Mr. Gui urgently yelled, “Their souls are with me! Do you want them to be idiots for the rest of their lives?”
Gu Qingluan’s hand suddenly stopped, just a hair’s breadth away from the top of his head.
Mr. Gui, who nearly met his demise, was full of fear on his face. Seeing her stop, he shuffled backward.
Gu Qingluan kicked him to the ground with one swift motion. “What did you just say?”
Mr. Gui tumbled over, struggling to look at her. Despite her fierce demeanor, his ruthless actions made him feel a chill in his heart.
However, thinking of what he held in his hand, his fear faded away. He revealed an unsightly smile on his face, full of wrinkles. “Didn’t you hear? Your son lost a part of his soul and if you kill me, they’ll never become normal people again. If you don’t believe me, take a look for yourself.”
Gu Qingluan turned around, and she saw Feng Yuanxi opening his eyes.
His eyes had turned purple, but there was no sign of vitality in them.
Gu Qingluan called out to him several times.
He seemed to hear her call and slowly turned his head in her direction.
There was no joy on his face as before.
He looked dumb, like a puppet doll.
Gu Qingluan’s spiritual awareness entered his mind, but at the entrance of his realm of the mind, it was blocked by a mysterious force.
She couldn’t see his soul.
But Yuanxi’s condition was evident.
Gu Qingluan then examined Xiaonan’s body.
She found that Xiaonan’s soul was fainter than that of a normal person, indicating that his soul was incomplete.
“Hand over their remnants!” Gu Qingluan looked at the old man, her eyes sharp.
Mr. Gui chuckled. “Do you think 1 would give them to you now?”
If he handed over their souls now, he believed she would kill him immediately.
“Gu Qingluan! Do you want to save them? Do you want them to become normal people? Kneel before my son! Do you hear me? Kneel down immediately!”
Consort Shu crawled up from the ground, staring at her with hatred.
She seemed like she wanted to devour Gu Qingluan alive.
Gu Qingluan extended her hand.
Consort Shu flew towards her, screaming in fear.
Smack!
Gu Qingluan seized her by the neck and looked at Mr. Gui. “Speak! If you don’t, I’ll kill her!”
Consort Shu struggled to free herself, but as a low-level arcane pract.i.tioner, she couldn’t even budge Gu Qingluan’s hand.
With a slight squeeze of Gu Qingluan’s fingers, Consort Shu immediately lost consciousness.
Mr. Gui leaned against the wall, his old face showing no signs of nervousness. “Go ahead and kill her.”
Consort Shu stopped struggling, looking at him in disbelief. “Mr… Mr… Gui, what do you… mean….”
