178: Section 178

Currently, Su Mo possesses the Lustful Ghost talent.

He could easily discern that the two individuals were young girls disguised as boys.

After a moment of recollection,

Su Mo recognized them as the Blood Child Twins Killers from the Assassin Hall.

Though they appeared as children, they were actually female dwarves who had Cultivated the 'Rejuvenation Art'.

Their weapons were a pair of blood-colored bells, and their usual method of attack involved Soul-capturing sounds emitted by the bells, followed by poisoned silver needles.

Ye Liuying also recognized the two at this moment.

"Blood Child Twins Killers!"

"Liudu, Liuxue!"

"You're actually here!"

"Is this state of the main altar your doing?!"

However, the Blood Child Twins Killers ignored her, focusing on performing their ghostly movement technique to evade the pursuing fire beast.

Seeing this, Su Mo's gaze sharpened.

In an instant, Scorching Heart activated.

Scorching Heart specifically burns Souls, capable of instantly igniting a target's Soul, causing them to endure the endless agony of their Soul being scorched.

Those afflicted felt as if they were being cut into a thousand pieces.

At this moment, under the gaze of the women, the Blood Child Twins Killers seemed to be possessed, screaming in the air before falling to the ground.

Once on the ground, both of them rolled in the mud, attempting to remove the burning sensation from their bodies.

But they didn't know that this flame, born from the Golden Crow Bloodline's witchcraft, was incredibly potent.

There was no solution except for a healing witch of Su Mo's equivalent level, or a Soul-protecting Magical Artifact.

Ye Liuying felt a chill rise in her heart as she witnessed the tragic state of the two.

Originally, she thought Su Mo was merely a pretty boy favored by the Guild Master.

At most, he was just physically strong.

But now, this bizarre method was simply too mind-boggling.

She hadn't even clearly seen how Su Mo made his move, yet the Blood Child Twins Killers had already collapsed.

At this moment,

Su Mo quickly stepped forward, slightly withdrawing a portion of the flames that were scorching their Souls.

"Where is Fei Lingxue!"

"Tell me!"

Looking at Su Mo's unfamiliar face, the two exchanged glances, having no idea where he had come from.

But the pain in their bodies was undeniably real.

If he hadn't wanted to question them, they would likely be burned to death by now.

The two immediately decided to reveal everything they knew.

Subsequently,

The two struggled to get up and began kowtowing to Su Mo.

"Great Hero, spare our lives! Great Hero, spare our lives!"

Su Mo then spoke.

"Tell me everything you know, and I can spare your lives."

The Blood Child Twins Killers were overjoyed at his words.

"This humble one will tell you everything!"

"We didn't capture Chief Fei at all; after she was severely injured by Protector Leng, she and her maids disappeared somewhere."

"Unable to find them, we buried a large number of Heaven-shaking Thunder bombs and then set these buildings on fire."

"Everyone else has left."

Just then, Ye Liuying also came forward.

"Nonsense!"

"The Louzhu's martial arts are unparalleled; how could she be injured by that sinister Cold Wuhen?"

"Hall Master Ye, this humble one dares not deceive you."

"Protector Leng Cultivated the martial arts on the Blood God Diagram, and a single strike severely wounded the Louzhu."

"Blood God Diagram?"

Ye Liuying wasn't sure what it was, but Su Mo knew very well.

During a previous simulation, Cold Wuhen, after Cultivating the martial arts on the Blood God Diagram, tried to defect and was directly slapped to death by him.

However, out of concern that Fei Lingxue might be unhappy, he hadn't told her.

Su Mo couldn't help but feel that he had been truly careless at this moment.

Of course,

It also had to do with the simulation process being too fast.

Aside from key plot points, everything else was just a quick glance.

Thinking of this, Su Mo confirmed that Fei Lingxue must not have left the Blood Clothes Tower.

He just didn't know where she was now.

Subsequently, Su Mo unleashed Scarlet Firmament, and the two bodies immediately began to spontaneously combust.

The Blood Child Twins Killers' expressions changed drastically.

"You broke your promise!"

Su Mo snorted coldly without offering an explanation.

Keeping promises to such people was a disservice to good people.

Immediately, Su Mo looked at Xu Miaoyin and Ye Liuying.

"In that case, let's split up and search."

"We must find Ling Xue and Su Jin today!"

"Alright!"

Su Mo's anger was escalating at this moment.

If anything happened to Fei Lingxue and Su Jin, he would eliminate everyone involved in the matter.

Above the clouds, Nangong Liuli quietly watched all of this unfold.

She could feel Su Mo's urgency and concern.

Somehow,

Upon seeing Su Mo's anxiety, she too became anxious, as if there was a shared, empathetic connection between them.

But the thought of having to share Su Mo with these women in the future made Nangong Liuli incredibly uncomfortable.

She even felt a strong urge to kill all the women around Su Mo and monopolize him!

However, in a flash, Nangong Liuli discarded this notion.

She sensed that,

In this life, she would have to overcome another Heart Demon tribulation!

But with the experience from her previous life, enduring another Heart Demon tribulation would definitely be easier than before.

Looking at Su Mo, who was still searching for Fei Lingxue in the ruins,

Nangong Liuli sighed in her heart.

"Fine."

"Let me help you this once."

Immediately,

Nangong Liuli's Divine Thought extended, and she quickly discovered Fei Lingxue and the three others buried underground.

She waved her Magical Power.

With a tearing sound, like striking a match, Nangong Liuli drew a chain of fire in the clouds.

Crack!

Lightning struck directly at the ground where Fei Lingxue and the others were buried.

Boom!

Su Mo was searching when he saw a bolt of lightning strike down.

The landing spot was a collapsed area.

The location of this collapsed area felt somewhat familiar to Su Mo.

After careful recollection,

He realized that it was precisely where Fei Lingxue had imprisoned him in the simulation.

Could it be that,

Fei Lingxue had hidden there?

It was known that this dungeon was extremely secretive; no one knew about it except Fei Lingxue and her three personal maids.

With a target in mind, Su Mo immediately became full of vigor.

He arrived at the collapsed section of the dungeon and began moving the massive stones.

Su Mo, possessing the strength of ten oxen and two tigers, was like an excavator at this moment, continuously digging out rubble and mud...

...

At the same time,

Fei Lingxue, who was Cultivating to heal her injuries in the iron cage, keenly sensed the commotion above.

She didn't know whether it was Cold Wuhen's group or Su Mo who was digging above.

For a moment, her beautiful face was filled with panic.

However, due to the surrounding darkness, Su Jin and the other two maids did not notice the change in their Young Miss's expression.

But Su Jin did feel Fei Lingxue's heart beating a few times faster.

"Young Miss, what's wrong?"

Hearing Su Jin's question, Fei Lingxue didn't speak; instead, she more strenuously operated her Cultivation Technique to heal herself.

At worst, they would fight to the death!

At this moment,

Xu Miaoyin, who was searching elsewhere, noticed Su Mo's actions and immediately ran over.

Seeing Su Mo's hands already bloody and raw, she couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

"Husband, you're injured."

Su Mo, however, seemed not to hear, continuing to throw out rubble and dirt.

Seeing this, Xu Miaoyin also pulled up her skirt, tore off two strips of cloth, and jumped into the large pit Su Mo was digging.

"Wrap them first."

Without waiting for Su Mo's objection, Xu Miaoyin wrapped the cloth strips around Su Mo's hands, tied a tight knot, and then began digging with Su Mo.
