Chapter 164 - 164 158 Severe Injury_1

164: Chapter 158 Severe Injury_1 164: Chapter 158 Severe Injury_1 Looking weakly at the boundlessly hateful face across from her, even though her throat was being tightly gripped by the opponent making it difficult to breathe, Dongfang Linglong simply hoped that Lv Zhong could escape and survive.

She had been shot and had gone without medical attention for more than an hour.

Now Ming Xue was toying with her.

Dongfang Linglong didn’t think she stood a chance of survival.

She could face death with calmness.

However, thinking that Lv Zhong might be being tormented by those people, Dongfang Linglong was genuinely worried.

“I hope Lv Zhong can escape this crisis.

I owe you too much in this life and may only be able to repay it in the next…”

Feeling an increase in Ming Xue’s grip strength and the glittering blade of the knife in her other hand nearing her face, Dongfang Linglong quietly prayed, then calmed down, closed her eyes and waited for her bitter fate.

However, hidden beneath her cold exterior was a deep affection and blessing for Lv Zhong, hoping that he could once again stage a comeback and escape from their clutches.

Filled with these thoughts, Dongfang Linglong resigned herself to her fate closing her eyes, and in that moment her mind was filled with images of Lv Zhong.

In reality, Dongfang Linglong had known Lv Zhong for just over half a year, and they hadn’t met in person many times.

The first time, due to a misunderstanding, she had thought that Lv Zhong was a thief on the bus.

He had called her “big-chested but brainless”, which annoyed her to the extreme.

His disdain towards her nearly drove her crazy.

How dare he say that her degree was a fake?

The second time, she was almost victim to the Throat-cutting Man and even killed.

It was Lv Zhong who saved her at the most despairing and hopeless moment.

This left a deep impression of him in her.

The third time was during her cousin Leng Mei’s Adult Ceremony.

Lv Zhong had elegantly drawn an exquisite painting, the ‘Song of Plum’, which caused her to secretly praise his unparalleled talent.

She learned at Zheng Tianle’s place that her family owed Lv Zhong’s family countless lives, which left her shocked.

Even after hearing that her mother had hurt Lv Zhong’s father’s feelings, she felt a slight surprise in addition to astonishment…

The fourth time was when Lv Zhong was challenged by Dongfang Changhe, a powerful heir from a noble family.

Lv Zhong displayed supreme martial power, defeating Dongfang Changhe in one move and even directly crippling his cultivation base and Dantian.

This made Dongfang Linglong feel Lv Zhong’s indisputable domination, leaving her terrified…

Dongfang Linglong was actually a woman with an icy exterior but a passionate heart.

After so many incidents, she had already fallen for Lv Zhong.

Now, Lv Zhong had once again rushed in to save her, and because of that, he was taken captive by this incredibly powerful group.

This gave her a pang of sweetness, yet the pain in her heart felt like it was being slashed by a knife.

If only she had known that a powerful bully like Ming Yue Po was hiding in the room next to hers, even if it killed her, she wouldn’t have called Lv Zhong whilst being blackmailed.

Seeing Dongfang Linglong peacefully closing her eyes, Ming Xue’s fury ignited again, and she decisively swung her sword towards Dongfang Linglong’s face.

At that moment!

“Sss…”

“Sss…”

“Sss…”

…

An array of strange energy waves attacked Ming Xue in an instant.

“Ah…” Ming Xue suddenly felt a horrific pain in her head as though her soul was burning.

Instinctively, she retreated her sword and clutched her head, letting out a pitiful yell.

Meanwhile, Dongfang Linglong’s body fell to the ground limply.

Startled by the sudden events, Dongfang Linglong opened her eyes and noticed Ming Xue inexplicably holding her head and howling.

“Huh…”

Listening carefully, Dongfang Linglong was delighted to find weak sounds resembling the flapping of mosquito or bee wings in the room.

“This…”

Dongfang Linglong’s first thought was the rare insects Lv Zhong had raised.

Last time, these mysterious insects had saved her from the Throat-cutting Man.

Hence, Dongfang Linglong’s memory of the insects’ flapping sounds was fresh in her mind.

Moreover, only the insects raised by Lv Zhong were capable of attacking enemies or saving people, right?

Otherwise, Ming Xue wouldn’t have been in such agony, let alone let her go.

Dongfang Linglong’s guess was correct!

At that moment, about seventeen or eighteen small, pitch-black worm-like creatures had flown into the room, circling in mid-air around Ming Xue’s body, nonstop.

Invisible waves of mysterious soul energy were fiercely attacking Ming Xue’s soul.

“Ah, it’s Lv Zhong, and the insects he’s raised…” Even though Dongfang Linglong couldn’t see the mysterious bugs in the room, she could hear from Ming Xue’s wailing that the insects were Lv Zhong’s.

Immediately, a sense of joy flooded her heart.

If Lv Zhong’s insects were still fighting, it meant Lv Zhong was still alive!

At this thought, Dongfang Linglong was overjoyed.

So, she just lay there on the ground, attentively watching Ming Xue, observing the battle between the insects and Ming Xue.

In fact, it would be more accurate to say that it was a massacre rather than a fight!

Ming Xue was completely powerless against these spectral insects and she couldn’t even grasp their shadows.

However, these worms were able to inflict waves of intense soul pains on her.

What’s worse, when the [Soul-Devouring Worms] entered the room, some insects resembling bees flew in.

This particular breed, were none other than the strongest of Lv Zhong’s lethal [Poison-Devouring Worms].

They were adept at absorbing toxins from other poisonous bodies, and the mixed toxins they released could easily kill a full-grown whale in a second!

Now, Ming Xue had lost control of her spirit under the attack of the [Soul-Devouring Worms], so she hadn’t noticed that something even more terrible had entered the room.

Seizing the moment of her inattention, several [Poison-Devouring Worms] swiftly stung her neck and skull several times with their tail needles.

In just a split second, Ming Xue’s entire skin turned dark as black ink and her life came to an immediate end.

This was a true case of a lethal and instant attack!

Death!

The powerful woman before her eyes, just like that, died in front of Dongfang Linglong!

It was only then that Dongfang Linglong realized, the insects that had been hidden, finally revealed their true identity.

One of these insects appeared like a septempunctata, except they seemed to have two colourful spots on their back.

Another one resembled a bee but had a blue tail thorn that was obviously highly toxic.

There was another one similar to fleas, a glossy black alien insect, but slightly larger than a flea.

It was this toxic insect that led to Ming Xue’s poison-induced death.

Dongfang Linglong felt no compassion or sympathy at all for this woman’s death.

Even upon witnessing the fierce and brutal side of these bugs, she felt no fear.

Instead, she instinctively felt a hint of affinity towards these insects.

After all, it was Lv Zhong’s mysterious insects that had saved her from the enemy’s hands twice now.

After annihilating Ming Xue, these insects calmly settled on the ground, motionless, and appeared rather endearing to Dongfang Linglong.

With their existence, all the fears in Dongfang Linglong’s heart dissipated in an instant.

More so, she thought that these insects remaining stationary in the room by her side was probably deliberate on Lv Zhong’s part.

Obviously, Lv Zhong left these insects here to reassure her and alleviate her fears.

Upon perceiving Lv Zhong’s considerate care like this, Dongfang Linglong felt a warm feeling enveloping her entire being, filling her heart with sweetness.

Amidst all this, she even felt that the pain produced by her gunshot wounds was gradually easing.

Little did she know that the reason these insects accompanied her in the room without moving was because they hadn’t received further instructions and dared not leave on their own.

So, she had indeed misunderstood.

Lying soft on the ground like that, if it weren’t for the scorching summer, and the chilling invasion after Dongfang Linglong had been shot, she would not have survived.

However, because Lv Zhong had earlier stopped the bleeding through mysterious means and her luck that her heart and other vital organs were unharmed, she was able to endure for so long.

Yet, after waiting for two hours without Lv Zhong appearing, she started to worry and her body grew weaker and weaker.

Three hours passed, and Lv Zhong still hadn’t appeared, a sense of urgency took over Dongfang Linglong’s face.

However, by this time, the acupoints on her body had been released due to the influence of her qi and blood, and she was no longer immobilized.

Upon discovering this, Dongfang Linglong was overjoyed and forced herself to stand up.

She gave a deep glance at the insects that seemed to be resting on the body of Ming Xue, enduring the severe pain coming from her back and right breast, and gritted her teeth to go and search for Lv Zhong nearby.

Silence!

Absolute silence!

The territory of the Profound Yin Demon Sect wasn’t large, and the group of buildings wasn’t numerous, about a dozen courtyards in all.

At first, Dongfang Linglong was afraid of being discovered by Bright Moon, Ming Yuan, and Ming Guang, so she tried her best to walk in the dark during the night.

But after she had walked through several courtyards and found that there were no people in these courtyards, and even if there were a few people who looked like menial workers, they had all fainted.

Seeing this, she gained some courage and began to speed up her search.

When she arrived at the courtyard where she had initially parted ways with Lv Zhong, she finally found Lv Zhong who was motionless in the courtyard under the bright moonlight.

Upon seeing that there was no one around, she was overjoyed and attempted to run towards Lv Zhong.

However, a sharp pain hit, and she fell to the ground.

When she mustered her strength to get up, Dongfang Linglong noticed that she seemed to have grabbed something.

She instinctively held it up to the moonlight for a closer look.

One glance was all it took to almost scare her out of her wits.

Because in her hand was a piece of clothing, and under that clothing was shockingly a set of white and shiny human bones.

What’s more eerie was that this humanoid skeleton instantly shattered into pieces of white ashes as soon as she touched them.

“Ah….” Dongfang Linglong screamed and subconsciously lunged towards Lv Zhong who wasn’t too far away.

However, in doing so, she realized that Lv Zhong seemed to be in the middle of cultivation and absolutely couldn’t be disturbed or touched.

With that, she was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth, pushed against the ground with her legs and rolled to the side.

Unfortunately, she forgot that she was a severely injured patient at the time, not the agile policewoman she used to be.

Under the influence of extreme pain, she collapsed heavily…(To be continued.
