The Unruly Immortals

"Infused with Evil Qi?!" Scholar Lv looked around at the chaos caused by the Evil Qi, and the villagers whose temperaments had completely changed because of it.

Just the thought of this situation appearing on his wife, on his friends, caused cold sweat to run down his body.

At this moment, with his heart burning with anxiety, Scholar Lv couldn't care about anything else and immediately led the carriage back toward Niuxin Village.

It was quick on the way out, but slow on the return, and Scholar Lv didn't know if he could make it in time, he could only do his utmost to rush.

In order to make it back, he threw the theatre box and luggage off the carriage, taking nothing but an old man and a young boy.

On the dirt road, as he dashed, Scholar Lv saw a person on the left side of the road, someone who appeared to be an ordinary farmer, but now looked very unusual.

He was holding a kitchen knife, his mouth and body covered in blood, it was unclear if it was his own or someone else's.

Standing by the roadside, his eyes full of malice were fixed on Scholar Lv, clearly emboldened by the Evil Qi to do things he dared not do in the past.

Although the carriage quickly passed by him, the man's gaze was deeply etched in Scholar Lv's heart.

He understood that this was not just happening here, it was happening all over Da Liang, the entirety of Da Liang had gone mad!

"Gao Zhijian, what exactly are you doing! Open your eyes, look at what you've done! You tyrant! You tyrant!!"

"Hurry! Faster!!" Scholar Lv, shouting in his heart, kept whipping the horse, even as it foamed at the mouth, he didn't stop.

He couldn't manage anything else, but he had to help Niuxin Village! They were his friends!

Rushing desperately, Scholar Lv finally made it to Niuxin Village just before dawn, and the horse immediately collapsed on the ground, dead from exhaustion.

However, as he looked at the mist-covered village in the distance, standing at the village entrance, Scholar Lv hesitated to go further, dreading to see the scene he feared most, that the events of the small town would be repeated in Niuxin Village.

With a pale face, he finally forced himself to step into the mist.

But as he felt the traces of Evil Qi gradually permeating from within the mist, Scholar Lv's heart kept sinking. "No...no no no...!"

Increasingly panicking, Scholar Lv could no longer think about anything else and ran haphazardly into Niuxin Village.

Finally, as he broke through the mist and saw what lay within, he was stunned on the spot, it was a gigantic Mo Blade glowing red, emitting Evil Qi all around.

But the Mo Blade had not entered Niuxin Village; it was quietly embedded in the ground beside Bai Lingmiao.

Bai Lingmiao, dressed in white, sat quietly on a stone, legs together, corresponding with the red Mo Blade, silently watching Niuxin Village slowly awaken with the crowing of roosters.

Bai Lingmiao explained softly, "It's alright, I knew it was today, so I came to stop them."

After speaking, Bai Lingmiao slightly lowered her head, her expression becoming very conflicted, "By rights, I shouldn't have done this. All the White Lotus followers have been infused with Evil Qi at my call, yet I'm using a bit of privilege to let my fellow students evade this ordeal...."

"I should be selfless, but I really can't bear to see everyone become Military and eventually be sacrificed, even if we will lose, I want everyone to be the last to die, I really can't bear it..."

Scholar Lv stepped forward and said, "Master, I don't know what others say, I just know that you're not wrong."

"Why bother with right or wrong on such a grand scale! Let the tall men handle the collapsing sky; in a catastrophe, we must first ensure our family's safety, and then think of other things."

Bai Lingmiao tilted her head, sensing Scholar Lv in front of her, "Is that so? But what if you are the tall man yourself?"

This was a question Scholar Lv could not answer, and he stood there, unsure of what to say.

Bai Lingmiao stood up, Second God emerged from behind her, and reached out to grab the red Mo Blade, wrapping it tightly with a white sleeve.

Seeing Bai Lingmiao about to leave, Scholar Lv hurriedly followed, but before he could follow for long, he was excitedly embraced by his wife. "I knew you couldn't leave me! I knew it!"

Bai Lingmiao ignored everything behind her, leisurely walking through the place she had grown up in. It had been a long time since she returned, and the once empty Niuxin Village was now full of people, as if the old Niuxin Village was back again.

Walking along, Bai Lingmiao reached the Bai Family Ancestral Hall again, looking at the spirit tablets covering the entire wall. She took three sticks of incense from the offering table, carefully lit them, and kowtowed three times before the tablets.

She knelt on a cushion, looking at the spirit tablets in front of her for a long time, then reached out to take the Mo Blade wrapped in white silk. "I can have selfish intentions, letting my fellow students dodge this disaster, but I cannot achieve it myself and then deceive those who trust me to do so, that would be too shameless."

The white silk was slowly untied, the towering Evil Qi causing the spirit tablets on the wall to sway continuously. "Furthermore, I'm too soft-hearted, but if I want to avenge Suisui, I cannot be soft-hearted."

As Bai Lingmiao grasped the Mo Blade with both hands, the conflict and worry on her face disappeared, and malice began to condense on her face.

And when the malice condensed on Bai Lingmiao's face, Second God's expression turned soft again, however, when four hands simultaneously gripped the Mo Blade, the malice simultaneously condensed on both faces.

Both faces simultaneously raised their mouths into a cruel smile.

The massive Mo Blade was gripped firmly by two right hands and swung forcefully, the sharp blade slicing the candle wick, spilling wax onto the incense.

When the incense was lit, the flames started to set the offering table on fire, and the offering table, engulfed in flames, then ignited the entire wall of spirit tablets. When Bai Lingmiao walked out of the ancestral hall, it was already billowing with thick smoke inside.

"There's a fire! Hurry and put it out!! There's a lot of grain stored there, enough to feed us for decades!!" Gouwa jumped up anxiously, leading the other villagers of Niuxin Village to put out the fire.

As Bai Lingmiao walked out of Niuxin Village, White Lotus followers with Bai Lu tattoos, various individuals with Bai Lu tattoos, and elderly lamas with Bai Lu tattoos gradually gathered behind her, growing in number, forming a grand procession.

Bai Lingmiao held the red Mo Blade in her two right hands, lifted a drum from her waist with one left hand, and picked up a Spinal Bone Sword with the other hand, which was Li Huowang's Spinal Bone Sword, but he no longer needed it.

Feeling the Spinal Bone Sword in her hand connecting Da Qi and Da Liang, Bai Lingmiao's two mouths simultaneously spoke: "Prepare the followers inside the church, we must make Tianchen Country also be infused with Evil Qi as soon as possible!"

"Moreover, since Tianchen Country is without a lord, we must assist Wu Sheng's old mother in reclaiming the true home of the void!"

"As you command, Saintess! When the calamity of the red sun ends, the white sun will rise!" the Bai Lus responded in unison.
