Chapter 90, 9th Lifetime: The Blood Demon Palace was completely destroyed, leaving everyone dumbfoun
Chapter 90: They messed up the Blood Demon Palace, leaving everyone dumbfounded and thoroughly satisfied!
In the Blood Demon Palace's winding, labyrinthine corridors, Luo Qingci hummed a tune so off-key that even her own mother wouldn't recognize her. She walked with such ease and contentment, as if she were strolling through her own sun-drenched vegetable garden, not in a perilous demon's lair.
"This Blood Demon Palace has a bizarre layout, like a giant Bagua formation, but for me, breaking it is as easy as playing a match-3 game. Those little minions who poisoned it, just wait until I drag you out and give you a good beating, so you'll know that Lord Ma has three eyes!"
She muttered to herself, her eyes darting around like a mischievous little monkey, not missing a single nook or cranny where a secret could be hidden. It was as if she were saying, "I'm going to dig up every little thing you've been up to!"
As they walked, a series of chaotic footsteps and loud voices suddenly came from ahead. "Boss, I heard that a village girl of unknown origin has infiltrated our Blood Demon Palace. We need to be careful, lest she trick us!"
"What are you afraid of! With our Blood Demon Palace's impregnable defenses, how could a little girl like her cause any trouble? You're overthinking it!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingci's eyes instantly lit up like two luminous pearls. A mischievous smile appeared on her lips as she thought to herself, "Perfect timing! Saves me from searching for needles in a haystack. Today's performance is going to be a grand spectacle, with drums and firecrackers going off everywhere!"
Like a nimble little fox, she swiftly darted behind a stone pillar as thick as a water bucket, barely daring to breathe, holding her breath like a cunning hunter waiting for its prey to take the bait.
A moment later, several henchmen swaggered closer. Luo Qingci's eyes darted around, a cunning look appearing on her face as she devised a plan. Without anyone noticing, she pulled a delicate little paper packet from the precious medicine pouch at her waist, and with a gentle flick of her wrist, a cloud of powder carrying a faint jasmine scent, like a flock of joyful butterflies, floated gracefully towards the henchmen.
"What's that smell? It smells pretty good... Achoo!" A henchman had just sniffed and wasn't even finished speaking when a deafening sneeze erupted, so loud it seemed to crack the walls of the Blood Demon Palace. Dust was sent flying, like a dust rain. "Achoo! Achoo! What's going on?"
The other henchmen also fell victim to the sneezing, and soon, sneezes echoed everywhere, creating a scene resembling a fierce "sneezing war."
"Haha, this is my carefully crafted 'Sneezing Powder,' enjoy this 'sneezing feast'!" Luo Qingci laughed loudly, like a triumphant general, as she swaggered out from behind the stone pillar, her hands on her hips with an air of smugness that almost overflowed the screen, as if she were announcing her glorious achievements to the world.
The henchmen were tormented by sneezes, tears and snot streaming down their faces. They flailed their arms wildly in the air, utterly powerless to resist. All they could do was sneeze and plead incoherently, "Grandma, spare...spare us! We really didn't know anything! Please have mercy and let us go!" They looked as pathetic as a group of poor little creatures drenched in a storm.
"Don't know? That won't do!" Luo Qingci blinked her bright, expressive eyes, her face still bearing that mischievous smile. "You guys have to do me a favor and take me to those so-called poison masters in your palace, otherwise, this sneezing will never end! In that case, you'd better prepare to keep sneezing and put on a 'sneezing symphony' for the Blood Demon Palace!"
As she spoke, she deliberately waved the medicine packet in her hand, which shimmered in the sunlight as if showing off to her henchmen. The henchmen turned pale with fright and nodded frantically like they were pounding garlic, at a speed that made it seem like their heads were about to be knocked off.
Led by the group of henchmen, who were now completely subdued by the sneezing, Luo Qingci arrived at a mysterious secret chamber. The door to the chamber was tightly shut, and a sinister, chilling aura of danger, like an invisible spiderweb, emanated from the cracks in the door. "This...this is it, Grandma. The people inside are ruthless and incredibly powerful. Please, please don't tell them we brought you here! Otherwise, we'll be in big trouble!"
One of the henchmen spoke tremblingly, his voice barely audible, almost like a mosquito's hum, with a hint of a sob in it. His pitiful appearance was just like that of a lamb about to be slaughtered.
"Don't worry, as long as you behave well, I won't treat you badly. If you behave well, I might even reward you with some of my specially made 'anti-sneezing elixir'!"
Luo Qingci patted the henchman on the shoulder, making him tremble. Then, she took a deep breath, puffed out her chest, and kicked the door to the secret chamber. "You all better behave!"
Her shout was powerful and resonant, as if carrying an overwhelming force that nearly shook the entire secret chamber to its core.
Inside the secret room, several men in black robes were sitting together, studying poisons in a pile of bottles and jars. Startled by the sudden "loud noise" and the intruder, they jumped three feet high and almost spilled the poisons they were holding.
"Who...who are you? How did you get in here?" a man in black robes asked in terror, his voice trembling like leaves falling in the autumn wind. His face was filled with fear and confusion, and his eyes were wide open like two copper bells.
Luo Qingci crossed her arms and strode in with a cat-like gait. Her eyes, like two powerful searchlights, swept over everyone, her gaze seemingly able to see right through them. "Who am I? I'm here to make you wicked fools pay a heavy price for your evil deeds! You think you can get away with anything in this martial world by poisoning people? How naive! Today, I, your grandmother, will be the end of your nightmares!"
Her gaze was sharp as two razor-sharp knives, as if it could pierce through the black-robed men's hearts and uncover their secrets.
The men in black robes exchanged a glance, as if reaching a tacit understanding, and suddenly drew their weapons in unison, baring their fangs and claws as they attacked Luo Qingci. "Good timing! I was just looking for someone to spar with!"
Luo Qingci showed no fear, her eyes gleaming with excitement. She flashed like a black lightning bolt, so fast that the eye couldn't follow. When she reappeared, she was already behind a man in black robes, giving him a gentle push—a seemingly soft movement, yet containing immense power.
The man in black robes flew straight out like a kite with a broken string, tracing a "graceful" arc in the air before crashing into a pile of bottles and jars with a loud "bang," creating a clattering sound. The scene resembled a lively porcelain auction suddenly spiraling out of control.
"What...what kind of kung fu is this?" The men in black robes were shocked, their movements slowed by half a beat, and they stood there dumbfounded, their faces filled with shock and fear. Taking advantage of the situation, Luo Qingci took out various colorful and differently shaped powders from her medicine pouch and scattered them at the men in black robes like a fairy scattering flowers.
In an instant, the secret chamber was filled with smoke, and strange noises rose and fell. Some of the black-robed figures, blinded by the powder, stumbled around like headless flies, constantly shouting, "My eyes, my eyes can't see!" Others, itchy all over from a special kind of itching powder, rolled on the ground, crying out, "I'm dying of itching! Help! Someone help me!" The scene was chaotic and comical, like an absurd and hilarious farce that made people burst into laughter.
"Hmph, you're still too green to fight me! Go back and cultivate for another ten or eight years!" Luo Qingci stood in the smoke, hands on her hips, laughing triumphantly. Her laughter was hearty and unrestrained, echoing in the secret room as if she were announcing her victory to the whole world.
After a fierce battle that resembled a world war, the men in black robes collapsed to the ground, as if their bones had been pulled out, and lost their ability to resist.
Luo Qingci walked forward with light steps, looking at these disheveled fellows who looked like a pile of mud, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, a smile that revealed a hint of cunning and smugness: "Now, it's time for you to honestly confess your crimes... If you dare to utter a single lie, don't blame me for being impolite, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"
