Chapter 1908: Chapter 1906: The Gun-Wielding Woman After Awakening

The two giant pythons, descendants of the Flying Snake species, had been captured by people from the Nine Netherworld since they were young, and everything from then up to the moment they were used in a blood sacrifice was seen clearly by Ye Tianchen and the gun-wielding woman with a human head and Snake body. At this moment, the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body seemed to recall something, her entire expression incomparably grave!

”You mean, that used to be me?” The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body looked at Ye Tianchen and asked.

”Yes. I used the Buddhist Holy Skill Scriptures to purify your heart and let you see your former self!” Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

So it turned out all of this was shown to her by Ye Tianchen. Of course, this was not an Illusion Realm created by Ye Tianchen; even Ye Tianchen himself hadn’t known it would be such a scene!

When Ye Tianchen had been fiercely battling the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body, he had already sensed how extraordinary she was, and that in her Soul there was always a sense of desolation. Under such circumstances, Ye Tianchen guessed that this woman with the human head and Snake body definitely had not originally been someone from the Nine Netherworld. Very likely she had been a powerful Demon Beast whose Life Soul had been confined by the Nine Netherworld and whose previous-life memories had been erased, thus becoming the Soul guarding this mass of Poisonous Gas!

In such a situation, Ye Tianchen thought of a powerful Holy Skill within the Yijin Jing that could purify a person’s heart and ferry a person’s Life Soul. Perhaps it would be useful. Unexpectedly, when Ye Tianchen cast this Buddhist Scripture Holy Skill, it truly caused the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body to undergo a drastic change in temperament. What was even more important was that it also drew him into such a scroll of images, letting him witness some tragic events as well as some deep and heartfelt love stories.

”Was that really the former me? I was that girl?” The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body asked, unable to bear it.

”You were probably ultimately confined by the Nine Netherworld, your Life Soul refined into this Poisonous Gas, and your past memories erased. Only then did you serve them, not even knowing who you truly were!” Ye Tianchen looked at the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body and said.

Pff!

All of a sudden, the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, startling Ye Tianchen. But right after that blood was sprayed out, the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body seemed to become much more clear-headed. Her gaze was no longer so blank, and her tears once again flowed down. She couldn’t help but murmur to herself, ”I remember, I remember now...”

After that, the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body no longer launched attacks on Ye Tianchen, but instead began to mutter to herself, recounting the story from those years. It turned out she and that boy were both descendants of the Flying Snake species. The Flying Snake was a true divine beast, a true Immortal Beast. To become a descendant of the Flying Snake species meant one was born with certain Divine Skills, and most importantly, one carried the legacy of the Flying Snake bloodline. That was the most powerful thing, and also the thing that made others’ eyes burn with greed. How precious was the blood of a Flying Snake descendant? Countless other Species had been coveting it!

The Nine Netherworld had always coveted it, and finally they seized their chance. The boy and girl, being playful, ran out of the mountain forest where the Flying Snake descendants lived, and were captured by experts of the Nine Netherworld just like that. Afterwards they were imprisoned for nearly several hundred years. Every single day people from the Nine Netherworld would come to draw their blood to sacrifice-refine some sort of Big Killer. Until the Nine Netherworld could no longer refine it any further and thought that perhaps using the lives of these two Flying Snake descendants might awaken this killer, which led to the scene at that enormous pit back then!

”I’ve remembered it all. I wanted to die, to die together with him. But in the end my Soul was confined. The Nine Netherworld used an extremely cruel method to burn my Soul day and night, until the memories within my Soul were wiped out and I became a walking corpse under their control, a puppet they could manipulate at will!” As the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body recalled, her eyes were filled with killing intent!

”You want revenge?” Looking at the appearance of the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body, Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but ask.

”Of course. What I hate isn’t the fact that the people of the Nine Netherworld killed us. This world is survival of the fittest; if it were me, I’d also slaughter without blinking. What I hate is the torment the Nine Netherworld inflicted on us. Why wouldn’t they let us die together, and instead left him alone in loneliness for so long? That kind of torment is the most painful thing of all!” The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body said through gritted teeth.

”You want revenge, but I’m afraid it won’t be easy. The leading black-robed man’s Cultivation Realm is at Late Stage Martial Saint, and though you are strong, you are still only a wisp of Soul after all!” Ye Tianchen looked at the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body and shook his head.

”That’s why I need your help. Kill this bastard. Once I’ve taken my revenge, you’ll be out of danger as well. We can work together!” The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body said with a faint smile.

”Alright.” Ye Tianchen nodded.

At a time like this, with things as they were, Ye Tianchen had no reason to refuse. The reason he had used this Buddhist Holy Skill Scriptures to awaken the former memories of the gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body was precisely in the hope of resolving his own crisis, of being able to deal with the leading black-robed man. Now that this woman’s memories had been awakened and she wanted to join forces with him to slaughter the black-robed man, what was there for Ye Tianchen to hesitate about!

Whoosh!

The Poisonous Gas surrounding Ye Tianchen instantly dispersed. The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body glanced at Ye Tianchen and said, ”You’re very strong. Even if we fought it out, I might not have been able to kill you. Now that we’re cooperating, I only want to kill that leading black-robed man. Back then it was he who tormented us for so long and wouldn’t even let us die together!”

”How do you want to kill him?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”He confined my Life Soul and erased my previous-life memories, making me a puppet of this Poisonous Gas for all these years. I don’t even know how many people I’ve helped him kill. Now I have only one goal: to make him die beneath this very Poisonous Gas, to make him die by his own hand!” The gun-wielding woman with the human head and Snake body said coldly.

Ye Tianchen was secretly startled. This woman was indeed vicious. If you truly provoked a woman to fury, ten men might not compare. Once a woman’s rage ignited, there was nothing she wouldn’t dare to do!

Right then, in the sky above Desolate Stone Village, a huge black python was coiled, stretching across the heavens as if it shrouded this whole world. The black‑robed leader sneered, looking unhurriedly at Dongfang Meng and the others as he said, ”An hour has passed, and Ye Tianchen still hasn’t rushed out. If he’s actually still alive, then I really ought to kneel!”

”If you’re going to kill, then kill!” Dongfang Meng stared coldly at the black‑robed leader and said.

”A man may be killed, but not humiliated!” Tianshuang’er frowned and said.

”No matter what, all of us will stand together, united as one!” Zhang Ruotong glanced at the villagers of Desolate Stone Village behind her and said.

”Hahahaha, no need to rush. I already told you, didn’t I? Every last one of you will die with great value. This Big Killer our Nine Netherworld Underworld managed to obtain with such difficulty has developed some problems again over the past few years, so we’re in dire need of a group of flesh and Life Souls to refine it. You are the best sacrifices!” The black‑robed leader laughed loudly as he spoke.

Bang!

All of a sudden, a loud explosion rang out. The black‑robed leader was startled, and he turned to look behind him. When he saw the person standing there was Ye Tianchen, he was utterly dumbfounded!

”You...” The black‑robed leader was shocked, unable to speak for a long moment.

”Didn’t you say you’d kneel? Go on, kneel.” Ye Tianchen stared coldly at the black‑robed leader and said.

”I didn’t expect you to really surpass my expectations, but you still have to die all the same!” The black‑robed leader remained just as overbearing, charging toward Ye Tianchen at great speed.

Bang!

Bang!

Their palms collided. The two were evenly matched in that single clash. A faint smile tugged at the black‑robed leader’s lips as he looked at Ye Tianchen and said, ”In the end, you still can’t escape being annihilated by my Poisonous Gas!”

Crash!

The black‑robed leader controlled that Poisonous Gas, turning it into a streak of sword light that slashed toward Ye Tianchen, while he himself pounced at Ye Tianchen as well.

Ye Tianchen stood in place without moving, letting that sword light formed from Poisonous Gas stab toward him as he only watched the black‑robed leader coldly. This made the black‑robed man freeze for a moment, but he didn’t think too much of it and still lunged at Ye Tianchen as before!

Pfft!

Blood splattered into the air. Ye Tianchen was completely unscathed, while the black‑robed leader was frozen in midair. Staring at the sword of condensed Poisonous Gas in his own chest, he spoke in utter disbelief, ”Why?”

Whoosh!

The woman with a human head and Snake body, holding a spear, appeared and looked coldly at the black‑robed leader as she said, ”Because I’ve awakened. Because I remembered everything from back then. Dying under your own Poisonous Gas... you can at least be considered to have an ending that matches your beginning!”

”You...” The black‑robed leader was utterly shaken; clearly he had never imagined that the woman whose memories he had erased would still be able to awaken!

”Die!” Seeing that the black‑robed leader still wanted to struggle, the spear‑wielding woman with a human head and Snake body thrust out her long spear on the spot, killing the black‑robed leader so completely that both body and Soul were destroyed!

The black‑robed leader was slain, turning into a cloud of Blood Mist that dissipated in the air. The spear‑wielding woman with a human head and Snake body looked around, then looked at Ye Tianchen and said, ”Thank you. I no longer have anything to hold me here. Let me go with him.”

Ye Tianchen said nothing. He only watched as that mass of Poisonous Gas slowly dispersed, and the wisp of Soul belonging to the spear‑wielding woman with a human head and Snake body slowly faded away as well. She no longer had any attachments. Ye Tianchen knew this was a person’s final ending, a beginning and an ending that matched—any words would be meaningless now! (To be continued.
