119: Chapter 119 The Green Snake Wants to Create a Hell

Xu Qing looked at the unrepentant Wang Lizhi.

He wished he could send him to the eighteen levels of Hell to endure endless punishment.

"Go to Hell..."

"I have a great idea!"

Xu Qing's eyes lit up as he looked at the resentment-filled Scarlet Swallow.

"A bastard like this shouldn't be allowed to reincarnate, even if he dies."

"We should pull his Soul from the Boundary of Life and Death and ensure he never finds peace!"

"Let his Soul be tortured for a thousand years, suffering endless pain until his Soul Power is completely exhausted!"

Nearby, Wang Lizhi struggled desperately.

Even death wouldn't bring release!

This demon! Demon!!

Devil Head! Female Devil Head!!

To think they'd deny him peace even in death!

"Wait, I know I was wrong, I really do!"

"Life has no hierarchy, we are all born equal! I acted worse than a beast!"

"I'm willing to pay with my life! I'm willing!"

Wang Lizhi apologized again and again and again.

"Noisy!"

Xu Qing flicked a glob of Spiritual Qi, shattering his mouth and throat.

"Wear this!"

Xu Qing looked at Scarlet Swallow and took out the Blue Dream Hairpin.

After all, Scarlet Swallow was an evil spirit formed from concentrated resentment; though she was lucid now, who knew how long it would last.

Scarlet Swallow hesitated for a moment before putting on the hairpin.

The moment she put it on, her resentment dropped several levels.

Some clarity returned to her blood-red eyes.

"Although there are legends of Hell, as far as I know, there is no Hell in this world."

As a Lisheng Green Snake who traversed the Boundary of Life and Death, Xu Qing had considerable authority on the subject.

The Boundary of Life and Death.

On the side of life was this world.

On the side of death was an endless darkness where all Souls after death would slowly merge into the dark and vanish completely.

"So, I want to establish a..."

"Hell!"

"Boom!"

Lightning streaked across the Void Realm, and thunder roared out of nowhere.

Even Elder Li above the Wang Mansion was startled.

Not to mention Xu Qing, who had spoken the words.

"...No, that's not it!"

Xu Qing shrank back, getting cold feet.

"Let's establish an Evil Soul Detention Center."

"We'll catch some evil Souls and torture them to death!"

"The name will be Little He—"

Xu Qing glanced at the sky with a racing heart.

"The name will be the Ultra-Small Hell Branch."

"..."

He stared at the sky for a while, and seeing no reaction, Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief before continuing.

"In a moment, I'll kill Wang Lizhi, as well as Bai Chunchun over there, Wang Naiping, and these servants with heavy hostile energy."

"I'll go to the Boundary of Life and Death and pull out all their Souls."

"Then I'll find a place to let them suffer constant torture inside."

After Xu Qing finished speaking.

Everyone present felt a chill in their hearts.

To die a miserable death.

This curse—this monster was actually, actually trying to find a way to make it a reality.

He actually wanted to establish the legendary Hell!

And the most terrifying part was.

These people would be the first batch of experimental subjects for this Hell.

'No, no!'

Wang Lizhi saw Xu Qing's gaze turn toward him, but unfortunately, he could no longer speak.

Those terrifying, eerie heterochromatic black and white eyes brought him endless dread.

"What are you afraid of, my dear Young Master?"

"How could I use you for something like this?"

Seeing Xu Qing's gaze move away, Wang Lizhi endured the pain and breathed a small sigh of relief.

"After all, if I used you as the first experimental subject and it failed, letting you die just like that..."

"Wouldn't that be too easy on you?"

Watching Wang Lizhi's "excited" struggle followed by his painful trembling.

It felt truly satisfying.

He casually killed a conscious servant with his sword.

Then, his eyes glowed with an eerie light, and his body vanished from the spot, traversing into the Boundary of Life and Death.

Surrounded by endless darkness, Xu Qing's lifespan began to drain rapidly.

His pair of black and white pupils quickly scanned the surroundings.

Wandering Souls drifted by.

"Found you!"

Xu Qing found a muddled wandering Soul.

Compared to the surrounding Souls, this one's hostile energy was clearly much denser.

Having learned his lesson from last time, Xu Qing did not touch the wandering Soul directly.

Instead, he reached out and took the heaven-accepting gourd from his waist, pointing the mouth at the wandering Soul.

"Capture!"

He performed a hand seal and gently tapped the bottom of the heaven-accepting gourd.

A golden vortex appeared, easily drawing the wandering Soul into the gourd.

"It actually works!"

Xu Qing quickly controlled his body and returned to the Wang Mansion.

Then, he extended his Divine Sense into the world inside the gourd.

The wandering Soul was being bound by a golden light in a cold mountain stream.

However, it had regained consciousness and was struggling desperately.

"I might as well set up Hell inside this heaven-accepting gourd!"

Xu Qing looked at the heaven-accepting gourd.

If it succeeded.

This heaven-accepting gourd would represent the entire Yin Realm!

Though it was just Xu Qing's self-proclaimed title.

Outside the gourd, heavenly clouds glow; inside the gourd, yin Souls are punished.

One gourd to hold endless sinful Souls, to hold the entire Yin Realm!

"Kill them, kill them all!"

Xu Qing killed with abandon.

Then, he repeatedly entered the Boundary of Life and Death to collect the Souls into the heaven-accepting gourd.

Especially that bastard Wang Lizhi.

Entering the Boundary of Life and Death, he almost blinded Xu Qing's eyes.

In that endless darkness, Wang Lizhi's Soul practically glowed with red hostile energy.

It was completely out of place among the surrounding wandering Souls.

It caught Xu Qing's eye immediately, without him even having to look for it.

How thoughtful of him; he's so gentle, I'm moved to tears.

As the last Soul was collected into the heaven-accepting gourd.

Xu Qing also looked at Scarlet Swallow.

Scarlet Swallow looked back at Xu Qing.

In the entire Wang Mansion at this moment, there were no living people left, only one demon and one ghost.

"Calling you Scarlet Swallow is less accurate than calling you an evil spirit."

Among evil spirits.

This was the only one Xu Qing had seen that possessed intelligence.

It wasn't so much that Scarlet Swallow's lingering resentment had merged with an evil spirit.

But rather that an evil spirit had merged with her lingering resentment, thereby giving birth to intelligence.

She was essentially half Scarlet Swallow.

"Are you going to kill me now?"

"It makes sense; your original purpose was to slay evil spirits."

"But you've given me closure."

"Being killed by you isn't so bad."

Scarlet Swallow spread her arms and closed her eyes.

"My Hell... the Ultra-Small Hell Branch still needs a supervisor."

"If you're willing to enter the heaven-accepting gourd..."

Xu Qing took out the gourd.

"There's no need."

"Scarlet Swallow died long ago; I am just an evil spirit."

"I don't know when I'll completely lose my mind."

"Scarlet Swallow gave me intelligence, allowing this mass of evil energy to experience and think about all this. I am already satisfied."

Scarlet Swallow shook her head, refusing Xu Qing.

Now that she was lucid, she didn't seem like an evil spirit at all.

Perhaps it was simply because Scarlet Swallow was heroic, gentle, and kind enough.

That the evil spirit which merged with her, after slaughtering the Wang Mansion and letting its resentment dissipate, no longer behaved like one.

"..."

"Hero Scarlet Swallow."

"If you have any regrets from your life, This Snake might be able to help you fulfill them."

'This damn tsundere tone!!!'

Xu Qing regretted it as soon as he said it; he felt so embarrassed!

After all, they had been fighting to the death earlier, and saying something like this now didn't quite fit Snake Snake's way of doing things.

"There is a half-jade pendant among my belongings."

"My sister should have the other half. If you meet her in the future, if it's convenient, please give her a hand."

After Scarlet Swallow finished speaking, she walked toward Xu Qing.

She grabbed the blade of the Xiliang Sword and plunged it into her chest.

The blade pierced through easily, and the evil energy melted away like spring snow in the Sword Qi.

"Sigh..."

"You didn't even say where the jade pendant is!"
