Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 29 Evil Spirit

Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Evil Spirit

Li Ru believed that in Xiuling Village, only she, the number one beauty of the village, was worthy of a man like Shi Feng.

Approaching her home, a ten-meter-long path led directly to a residence ahead. This residence was built by Butcher Li over the past few years. As the wealthiest man in Xiuling Village, he imitated the rich city dwellers of Moon City and built this mansion.

The path was flanked by pig pens on both sides. As she walked on the path, Li Ru felt that something was off today. Normally, at this time, the servants would be feeding the pigs, but today, there was no one in sight.

The pigs lay listlessly in their pens.

"Father always cherished these animals the most. Even if he went hungry, he would never let them starve. What’s happening today?" Puzzled, Li Ru slowly approached her family’s residence. She didn’t know why, but today felt exceptionally quiet, oppressively quiet, and the feeling intensified the closer she got.

Li Ru reached the front door and was just about to knock. Her hand hadn’t even touched it when the mansion’s door suddenly swung open. In the next moment, Li Ru’s pupils dilated. She saw several bodies lying haphazardly inside the mansion. Her father, Butcher Li, with his full-bearded face, was holding a pig-killing knife and cutting into a corpse. His mouth corners were smeared with blood and flesh, and he seemed to be chewing on something as red juice splashed out of his mouth.

"Dad... Dad..." Li Ru froze, feeling an icy chill envelop her entire body, and her legs trembled uncontrollably. She realized that she was no longer in control of her own body.

"Heh heh... Heh heh..." Butcher Li let out a sinister, eerie laugh. His head turned slowly like a puppet’s toward Li Ru. She saw that his eyes were completely hollow.

"Female... tender, delicate woman... body..." Butcher Li uttered each word distinctly, his voice harsh, raspy, and piercing, unbearably grating like steel scraping.

Suddenly, Butcher Li’s right hand formed a claw and targeted Li Ru. His fingers contracted towards his palm, and with a pull inward, Li Ru screamed as she was lifted off the ground and swiftly drawn towards him.

"Heh heh heh..." Watching Li Ru draw closer, a grotesque smile spread across Butcher Li’s face.

Just then, the sinister laughter froze on his face. Next, only to hear Butcher Li roar, "Ru’er, run! Fast! Ah!"

"Snap!" Li Ru’s body lost its pull and slammed onto the ground with a "thud."

"Heh heh heh..." The sinister laughter resumed on Butcher Li’s face. "Beast... a beast!" He roared angrily, his entire body shaking fiercely, his face pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans covering his forehead, as if he was resisting intensely.

"Dad..." Li Ru scrambled up from the ground, utterly confused as she looked at her father.

"Go! Get out fast!" Butcher Li bellowed again at Li Ru.

"No! Listen! Then! Die!" The raspy harsh voice once again slowly came out of Butcher Li’s mouth. Then, he was seen lifting the pig-killing knife and stabbing it into his own chest.

"Ah!" Butcher Li bellowed to the sky, and blood instantly soaked the ground beneath him.

"Dad!" Seeing this, Li Ru hurriedly ran towards Butcher Li.

Just as Li Ru had run halfway, suddenly a dark shadow burst out from Butcher Li’s body, shooting directly at Li Ru and burrowing into her body. Li Ru’s running steps abruptly halted.

Li Ru first looked bewildered, then her shoulders and arms slowly trembled. Next, her head swayed slowly from side to side like a puppet, making a crackling noise as if beans were being fried.

"Hehehe... hehehe..." Li Ru suddenly laughed, her laughter as sinister and eerie as Butcher Li’s had been, "A woman’s body, hehehe... hehehe..."

"Hehehe..." Li Ru gestured with her hand, and the pig-killing knife that was stuck in Butcher Li’s chest and abdomen immediately flew out and into Li Ru’s hand.

Li Ru looked the knife over from top to bottom, then raised the pig-killing knife high and swung it down!

A huge, dark Sword Shadow emerged in the void, falling with Li Ru’s motion.

"Boom!" with a roar, the earth trembled. The dark Sword Energy gradually dispersed, and a huge, ferocious crack appeared on the ground in front of Li Ru. More than ten bodies that had been scattered haphazardly in front of her were now reduced to ashes.

Blood rain began to fall from the sky.

"Hehehe..." Li Ru laughed loudly in the blood rain, her body drenched red, "Eight... eight hundred years, eight... eight hundred years, I have been sealed within this Dragon-slaying Sword for a full eight hundred years! Now I have finally broken the seal. Tianheng Continent, Sha Ye has returned, hehehe..." Li Ru spoke, and though her voice was still hoarse, piercing, and unpleasant to hear, her sentences gradually became smoother, as if her soul and body were slowly fitting together.

"In this woman’s memory, not far from here lives a Little Martial Practitioner named Shi Feng, hehehe... His Martial Arts Cultivation may be low, but even a small piece counts as meat. Tonight, let him become my midnight snack, hehehe..."

As soon as Li Ru finished speaking, her body suddenly began to tremble violently, but then that piercing, unpleasant voice shouted, "Humph! Slut! You promiscuous woman, falling in love with every man you see, what’s so great about killing a pretty boy with weak strength? Once I regain my peak power, men of Martial Venerable and Martial Saint Realm can be captured for your enjoyment. Disobey me, and your father’s fate will be yours."

The shout ended, and Li Ru’s trembling body gradually calmed down.

The sky darkened, and night fell with the moon hanging high.

"Clap clap clap!" In front of the dilapidated wooden hut, not far on the clearing, came bursts of air seemingly exploding.

Shi Feng, bare-chested, thrust his fists into the air, causing the air to burst with booms.

Practicing fists was the most basic way to strengthen the body and enhance physical fitness. The fist technique Shi Feng was now practicing was the Nine Nether Fist, a technique he had created in a previous life, which not only strengthened him but also unlocked human potential.

"Ha! Ha!" Shi Feng shouted loudly, his body leaping up, and his fists swung rapidly through the void, leaving trails of bright white Fist Shadows in the night sky.

"Ha!" Another loud shout, Shi Feng’s body plummeted to the ground, and he punched directly at it.

"Boom!" The earth erupted with a roar, where Shi Feng’s fist collided with the ground, cracks spread outwards like a spider web.

"Hm?" Suddenly, an uncomfortable feeling surfaced in Shi Feng’s heart as if someone in some corner was secretly watching him.

"Who’s there! Come out!" Shi Feng furrowed his brow, shouted loudly, and his gaze swept through the darkness, the uncomfortable feeling in his heart growing increasingly intense.
