556 Broken Tail
Xia Qiluo’s face darkened. “This is not the time to be wilful. This concerns tens of thousands of people.”
Liu Sanniang ignored Xia Qiluo’s ranting and said, “Hu Qiushui, break your agreement with your Venerable and reveal the truth.”
When Hu Qiushui heard Liu Sanniang’s voice, she was burning with anxiety. She wanted to, but she could not move at all.
However, for some reason, she felt that she could do what Liu Sanniang said.
Looking at Huang Ranshi, who was on the verge of death, Hu Qiushui gritted her teeth and exerted all her strength.
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning struck. Liu Shiba was getting impatient. She was here to take revenge, not to watch Hu Qiushui successfully transcend the tribulation and ascend.
There were a total of nine bolts of lightning in this tribulation. When the seventh bolt of lightning struck, Liu Shiba lost her patience.
Liu Sanniang said, “Hu Qiushui, he has already broken the agreement. You don’t have to be suppressed by him anymore. It’s not him who is suppressing you, but your heart.”
Hu Qiushui’s face was ferocious as she glared at Huang Ranshi, wishing she could dig out his heart.
After seven bolts of lightning, all the hair on her body was burned away.
Hearing Liu Sanniang’s voice, she roared and broke off two of her tails. At that moment, the heart-wrenching pain woke her up. She let out a scream and instantly rushed out of the house.
At this moment, Huang Ranshi, who was in the room, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and disbelief, as if he could not believe that he had miscalculated.
A fox covered with burnt marks instantly arrived on the roof, and the flood dragon instantly wrapped around her. “Hu Qiushui, you’re finally out. Let me ask you. What did I do to make you hate me so much that you wanted to kill me?”
Hu Qiushui was in so much pain that she wanted to die because Liu Shiba’s resentment was too strong. Since she had suffered seven bolts of lightning, her body was charred everywhere, making her feel even more pain.
Hu Qiushui said with difficulty, “Liu Shiba, it wasn’t me who harmed you that day. It was my Venerable, Huang Ranshi. He took over my body. I have no grudges against you. Even if I had, I would settle the score with you before you transcended the tribulation. I know that it’s not easy to cultivate, and it’s even harder to cultivate for nearly a thousand years. I know better than anyone what it feels like to be struck by the lightning time and time again.”
When Liu Shiba heard Hu Qiushui’s explanation, the hatred in her heart was about to spew out. She was so angry.
Hu Qiushui knew that Liu Shiba did not believe her.
“If you don’t believe me, you can enter my consciousness and take a look yourself.”
When Liu Shiba heard this, she rushed into Hu Qiushui’s body almost instantly, not even giving her a chance to go back on her word.
She would not believe anything Hu Qiushui said unless she saw it with her own eyes.
Liu Shiba did not believe it at first, but when she saw it with her own eyes what happened in Hu Qiushui’s consciousness, she had no choice but to believe it. She was filled with resentment and pushed Hu Qiushui to the side. “I believe you were forced. Now, I want to seek justice for myself.”
“Those who took my life have to pay with blood.”
The snake tail slapped down heavily on the Huang family’s house again and again. It did not flinch even when it was burned by the array formation.
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning struck down. Hu Qiushui was struck and fell heavily into the courtyard, her life force disappearing bit by bit.
She had broken the agreement and was no longer controlled by Huang Ranshi. The power in her body disappeared greatly, and there was still a bolt of lightning she had to take. She could not withstand it at all. It seemed that it was fate. She was destined to die during this heavenly tribulation.
Liu Shiba slammed the array formation heavily, making everyone’s hearts tighten.
Heavy rain and thunder covered this earth-shattering sound.
“Why are you stopping this?”
Huang Ranshi staggered out of the house with his walking stick, his eyes filled with anger.
He looked at the flood dragon and was not afraid. “You should have died long ago. Why are you still kicking up a fuss? If you die, you have to accept your death.”
Liu Shiba hit the array formation with all her might.
It was this man who took her life. She wanted him to pay with his life.
Huang Ranshi’s expression was cold. “It’s useless. This array formation is formed with the force of heaven and earth. Are you so capable that you can challenge heaven?”
Hu Qiushui was on the verge of death. She looked at Huang Ranshi with hatred. “The nails you drove on the ground are used to activate the array formation?”
Huang Ranshi nodded. “That’s right.”
Hu Qiushui looked at Liu Shiba and shouted. “Liu Shiba, smash in the direction of the south room. There… there’s a nail missing in that direction. I’ll break off another tail to help you!”
Liu Shiba’s eyes were vicious as she raised her huge head and smashed it in the direction Hu Qiushui mentioned.
Hu Qiushui made a prompt decision. She gritted her teeth and swung another tail over, cooperating with Liu Shiba from the inside.
When Liu Shiba smashed into the array formation, the Huang family’s courtyard collapsed with a bang.
Huang Ranshi’s eyes widened in disbelief. “This is impossible!”
He had clearly checked that there were nails in every place. How could there be one missing?
Hu Qiushui sneered and said, “You didn’t expect this, did you? Last night, your son woke up in the middle of the night and took pity on me. He helped me pull out a nail.”
One less nail would make the array formation a little weaker. If they hit the right spot, they could break the array formation using that weakness.
Liu Shiba also transformed into a human, a white-haired old woman.
The array formation was broken. Hu Yu rushed in and threw herself into Hu Qiushui’s arms. “Mother, boohoo…”
Liu Shiba slowly walked up to Huang Ranshi with a murderous gaze, but she was stopped by a hand. Liu Shiba frowned and looked at Liu Sanniang. “I’m grateful that you helped me, but I hope you won’t interfere in this matter. I don’t want to fight you.”
Liu Sanniang said, “Don’t let your hands be stained with blood. No one can take away what belongs to you. Even if you are dead, you can still reincarnate. In your next life, you can still re-cultivate to perfection.”
Liu Shiba wanted to say no. Was it easy to re-cultivate?
This meant that she had to cultivate again and experience several lightning tribulations to reach this point.
Liu Shiba put away the anger and hatred in her heart. “Then, I’ll let you do it. If you can’t satisfy me, I’ll do it myself.”
Huang Ranshi looked at Liu Sanniang viciously. “You ruined my plan. You were the one who collected her soul.”
Liu Sanniang met Huang Ranshi’s sinister eyes. Her expression was as calm as usual. “Your son and wife should wake up soon. Are you afraid?”
