Chapter 48 The Curse of the White Rose
Chapter 48 The Curse of the White Rose
On the other side, Gao Huohuo and Lou Chongxiao were asked the same question along the way.
Every time, Gao Huohuo would put on a performance of righteous indignation, and when she started cursing herself, she was more ruthless than anyone else.
Upon hearing their questions, the people who asked them immediately looked at them with sympathy.
Because both sides suffered heavy losses in the previous great battle, both the righteous and the evil are now consciously abiding by an agreement.
That means finding Bai Qiang first and killing her.
Bai Qiang herself knew about their idea and was not happy about it.
You killed them yourselves, why are you blaming her? She's not a scapegoat.
Looking at the growing number of people on the system, Gao Huohuo smiled. Didn't they all want to kill her?
Then she'll play a big game with them.
"Eighth Senior Brother, you said they all want to kill Bai Qiang, so what would happen if I killed Bai Qiang?"
"Junior Sister, are you playing abstract games with me? You yourself are Bai Qiang, how can you kill yourself?"
"No one else will know. When the time comes, I'll just throw away my fifth senior brother's explosive talisman and my seventh senior sister's explosive pill, and say that I was blown to ashes."
Then they'll randomly throw out a few storage bags, saying they fell out accidentally, and the rest were all destroyed in the explosion.
"Junior Sister, what are you trying to achieve by putting on this show?"
"Of course, it's to clear Bai Qiang's name!" And incidentally, to earn some spirit stones.
Soon the two arrived at a place overgrown with weeds. Without saying a word, Gao Huohuo threw out a talisman, and all the weeds were harvested.
"Junior Sister, what's the use of pulling up these weeds?"
Lou Chongxiao asked, puzzled, as he was starting to lose track of his junior sister's train of thought. "Didn't you say you were going to pretend to kill Bai Qiang?"
"Eighth Senior Brother, these wild grasses can be exchanged for spirit stones."
"Junior Sister, are you kidding me? This isn't a spirit herb, how can we exchange it for spirit stones?"
"Just do as I say in a moment."
After weeding, the two found a spacious place with more people, and Gao Huohuo started hiding behind a big rock to do her crazy things.
Using the useless items in his storage ring, he casually made a scarecrow and put the old clothes on it.
Then, Lou Chongxiao put on an invisibility talisman and stood next to the scarecrow.
Once everything was ready, Gao Huohuo began to transmit his voice to Lou Chongxiao, and then pretended to lash out with a whip.
"Bai Qiang, it's all your fault, you vixen, that you've caused so many deaths. Today, I'll kill you on behalf of Heaven!"
"You're talking nonsense. I was clearly wronged. I stood up for justice but was misunderstood. Now so many people have died, and my senior brothers have kicked me out."
Seeing people rushing this way, Gao Huohuo seized the opportunity to shout:
"Bai Qiang, enough nonsense, prepare to die!"
“I was wronged, and even if I die, I will curse those who wronged me.”
No sooner had the words been spoken than a deafening explosion followed, shaking everyone so much that they could barely stand and were on the verge of falling.
The combined power of the fifth and seventh senior brothers' items is indeed incredible!
Soon a group of cultivators gathered around, seeing the huge pit that was three people deep in front of them and Gao Huohuo, who was covered in dust and dirt.
"Where's Bai Qiang? Where is she?"
Gao Huohuo coughed before saying, "That witch actually claimed she was innocent and cursed all of us who wronged her to be blown up by me."
"Curse? What curse?"
"Fellow Daoist, don't worry. That vixen is dead. Even if there is a curse, we don't need to be afraid."
Another cultivator nearby chimed in, "That's right, she's clearly a demoness. So many people died because of her."
"What about the senior brothers and sisters who were with her?"
Gao Huohuo revealed a perfectly timed look of disdain and said dismissively:
"She herself said that because too many people died, she was kicked out by her senior brothers and sisters, which is why I caught her when she was all alone."
It's a pity she was blown to pieces, otherwise we could have returned the storage bag she stole to everyone.
Now that this witch is dead, it can be considered a consolation to the spirits of those who died before her.
As soon as she finished speaking, Gao Huohuo suddenly felt excruciating pain all over her body, so much so that she rolled on the ground in agony.
Veins bulged on his forehead, cold sweat poured down his face, and he kept crying out, "It hurts so much, I can't take it anymore, just kill me!"
Those surrounding her were startled by her sudden change of heart, and some of them mustered up the courage to step forward and use their spiritual power to investigate her.
There were no wounds on her body, but you could tell she was in pain.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gao Huohuo grabbed the man's hand and looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Fellow Daoist, what's wrong with me? I'm in so much pain, please give me a quick death."
Lou Chongxiao, who had already revealed his figure, was watching the man's movements closely.
The junior sister said that if she found out that the person was really going to make a move, she should immediately rush out and stop him.
The man ignored Gao Huohuo's request and simply scanned the area with his spiritual power again, but still couldn't find the reason.
"Is there any alchemist who can diagnose illnesses? Could you please come and take a look at what's wrong?"
There wasn't a single wound on this fellow cultivator's body, nor any sign of poisoning, but the pain she was enduring was real.
No sooner had the man finished speaking than a pill cultivator stepped out from among the group of cultivators.
He grabbed Gao Huohuo's wrist and examined it closely. After examining it for a long time, he found that it was the same as what the other person had said.
"Strange? Why is that?"
Is Gao Huohuo using all her acting skills at this moment? She's kicking her legs one minute and clutching her head the next.
As Zi Ying watched, she couldn't help but complain in her mind, "Gao Huohuo, your performance is too exaggerated, and your leg kicks are too straight, it looks a bit fake."
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo quickly improved her acting skills. Everyone around her felt that she was in too much pain and wondered if they could help her.
"Purple Shadow, is your illusion magic alright?"
"Don't worry, fooling these Foundation Establishment cultivators is a piece of cake for me."
At this moment, Lou Chongxiao finally came on stage, looking at Gao Huohuo who was still rolling on the ground with a worried expression.
"Junior sister, what's wrong with you? Didn't you send me a telepathic message saying you saw that demoness Bai Qiang and wanted to confront her?"
How did it get like this? Was this Bai Qiang's doing?
Upon hearing Lou Chongxiao mention Bai Qiang, some people finally realized what was happening.
“A curse, she’s using a curse. Before she died, Bai Qiang said that someone had wronged her, and she wanted to curse everyone even in death.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone remembered.
Even Gao Huohuo took the opportunity to feign a defeated expression and muttered to himself:
"Did we really wrong her? Is there any hope for me?"
After saying that, it began to shake even more violently, looking as if it was about to die.
Lou Chongxiao rummaged through his storage bag and finally found a wild grass, which he handed to Gao Huohuo.
"Junior sister, eat this quickly. This is a spiritual herb that I just obtained by chance. Don't underestimate it. It is effective against curses and witchcraft."
Gao Huohuo quickly ate the wild grass, then stopped shaking and suddenly felt much better.
Finally, they fed her grass, so they could stop. She herself felt a bit awkward if they continued acting.
