Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 367 - Shaman

A spacious carriage slowly rolled down the streets of Yinling City, heading to the inn where Li Huowang was staying.

Li Huowang covered in injuries was inside the carriage. He turned to Bai Lingmiao and calmly said, “If the Immortal families are going to follow you for your entire life, anyway, then you'd be better off using Shen Tugang's method rather than allowing them to use you as a mere laborer.

"However, his method is risky, and whether or not to use it depends on your situation.”

Bai Lingmiao was currently not under any threat by the Immortal families, but Li Huowang couldn’t help but worry about her upon recalling Li Zhi's words.

Bai Lingmiao stared at Li Huowang in surprise. “Does the man’s lyrics really look down on the Immortal families? Just what are the lyrics?”

Li Huowang pondered briefly over Shen Tugang's words before saying, “Drive away the wolves and devour the tigers. The Immortal families are a bunch of creatures that bully the weak and fear the strong. Intimidate them, and you can negotiate with them.”

“What did Shen Tugang do to intimidate the Immortal families?” asked Bai Lingmiao with a solemn expression.

“He decided to rear evil spirits,” Li Huowang replied, “However, he didn’t go into the specifics, but there's no way he would have told me about it, as it's a cultivation that is closely intertwined with his own life and death.”

Bai Lingmiao silently repeated his words with a thoughtful look.

“Shen Tugang said it’s like balancing something almost equally heavy on both sides. Neither can be too heavy or light. Both sides can be employed together if done properly, but if done improperly, it can be dangerous.”

Li Huowang reached out and patted Bai Lingmiao’s hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll come and help you once I’m done.”

Li Huowang had to prioritize things, and he felt that returning Bai Lingmiao’s personality back to her original personality was the top priority.

Bai Lingmiao’s face showed a hint of distress upon seeing Li Huowang’s torn right hand.

Bai Lingmiao pulled her hand away and said, “No need. It's useless for me. I’m fine now, and the Immortal families haven’t really done much to me.”

“Really?” Li Huowang stared at the black scar on Bai Lingmiao’s fair neck.

“Why would I lie to you? You should be more concerned about yourself,” said Bai Lingmiao, changing the topic.

The Immortal families were plotting against her, but she had no plans of telling Li Huowang about it. Li Huowang had suffered enough, and she believed that there was no need to make him go through even more suffering.

Bai Lingmiao believed that the method Li Huowang had mentioned was worthy of pondering over.

“Don't say things like that. It’s better to be prepared than sorry. I’ll pay attention on your end. If the Immortal families cause you any trouble, I want you to let me know as soon as possible.”

The carriage came to a stop just then, as they had arrived at the inn. The Second Deity bent down and carried Li Huowang off the carriage.

The two walked upstairs amidst the strange gazes of the people in the lobby. The Second Deity walked into the room and closed the door to the room.

“How about you come back to Cowheart Village with me? I'm sure everyone has been waiting for you,” Bai Lingmiao said, looking down at Li Huowang on the bed.

Li Huowang thought about it, but he eventually shook his head and said, “No, I’m just going to wait here. I would miss Ji Xian's message if I were to go back to Cowheart Village."

In addition, Li Huowang had no intentions of getting involved with others. The best outcome for them was to live a peaceful life, and if Li Huowang were to get involved with them, they would never be able to live a peaceful life.

There were already enough people who had died by his side.

Bai Lingmiao's lips curved into a smile just then. She then took off her clothes and lowered her head to kiss Li Huowang.

“I’m still injured...” Li Huowang muttered, sounding in pain.

“Heh, that makes it even better. You can’t die, after all. Also, you still haven't told me who Yang Na is!” Bai Lingmiao exclaimed.

Soon, the thin threads keeping Li Huowang’s wounds together tore one by one. After a long time, Bai Lingmiao lay spread eagle on the bloodstained bed with her left foot on Li Huowang’s chest. She was gasping for breath with a soft smile.

Li Huowang was about to say something when Bai Lingmiao lifted her slender left leg and smacked it down Li Huowang's chest, making the latter exhale sharply.

“Do you really think I don’t know the matter between you and the Second Deity? Now there’s Yang Na. You have too many women, Li Huowang,” Bai Lingmiao said, sounding resentful. It seemed that she wanted to take revenge on Li Huowang.

Li Huowang noticed that Bai Lingmiao brimming with killing intent, and Bai Lingmiao with nary a trace of killing intent had markedly different reactions in the face of the same situation.

Li Huowang caressed Bai Lingmiao’s leg without saying anything.

Li Huowang closed his eyes slowly and was about to drift off when Bai Lingmiao suddenly said, “The Second Deity is a part of me. If I die someday, you can treat the Second Deity as myself. However, that Yang Na nonsense is unacceptable!”

“If she dares to appear before you, then don’t blame me for not showing any mercy!”

Li Huowang looked helpless as he said, “Yang Na exists solely in my hallucination. Are you jealous of a mere illusion?”

Just then, Li Huowang realized that Bai Lingmiao had become the Second Deity. The Second Deity wasn't wearing that red veil, and her peculiar appearance was completely exposed to Li Huowang.

Her slender mouth opened slightly, and a voice filled with grievances echoed soon afterward. “Senior Li...”

Li Huowang was stunned, and he felt as if the past Bai Lingmiao was right before him.

“Senior Li...” Tears flowed from the five eyes of the Second Deity, and she appeared like a puppy that had been bullied as she choked up in tears while in Li Huowang’s embrace.

“Miaomiao? Is that really you?” Li Huowang muttered, but he felt a shiver down his spine upon coming up with a terrifying idea. Could it be that Bai Lingmiao had failed to absorb the killing intent and that she had been replaced by the Second Deity?

Was she forced to become the Second Deity?

While holding the Second Deity in his arms, Li Huowang cast a fierce gaze at the empty room and shouted, “Second Deity! Come out and tell me what’s going on!”

Li Huowang realized just then that the hairy body of the Second Deity had become smooth and soft.

“Main Deity, Second Deity, is there any difference?” Bai Lingmiao asked. She was still in Li Huowang's embrace and was staring at Li Huowang seductively with her pink pupils. "Do you really care about who you use? You’re not picky, anyway.”

“Tell me... who are you?” Li Huowang asked with a solemn expression. Despite his injuries, he looked exceptionally intimidating.
