220: Chapter 211 Xiu Niang_1 220: Chapter 211 Xiu Niang_1 Mu Nanqing’s face showed a hint of confusion, and the next second, she found the scenery before her eyes had changed, and she had come into an ethereal space.

“Who…

Who’s talking?” Mu Nanqing looked around and asked.

A voluptuous and seductive woman appeared before Mu Nanqing.

She was scantily clad, with only a few pieces of cloth covering her sensitive areas, exposing the rest of her body to the air.

Her face was enticing, and her entire being radiated an eerie sense of beauty.

Mu Nanqing watched the suddenly appeared woman with a guarded expression, asking, “Who are you?

And where is this place?”

The seductive woman smiled and said, “This is the internal space of the ring you picked up.

Don’t worry, it’s only your consciousness that I’ve pulled in here.”

“As for me…

you may call me Xiu Niang, I am the divine spirit hidden in this ring, existing solely to fulfill people’s wishes.”

Mu Nanqing frowned, closely examining the woman who was seductive to the bone, but somehow she could not associate her with the words ‘divine spirit’.

After pondering, she asked, “Can you bring Xiaochuan back?”

Xiu Niang smiled and nodded, “Correct, I can not only bring him back, but I can also help you kill that guy outside.

However, if you want a divine spirit to take action, there must be a price to pay.”

Mu Nanqing asked, “What price?”

Xiu Niang’s gaze fell on Mu Nanqing’s face, licking her lips she said, “Your soul.”

Mu Nanqing frowned slightly, then asked, “How do I know if what you’re saying is true?”

Xiu Niang covered her mouth with a light laugh and said, “I have no need to lie to you, and right now, this is your only choice.

If you think I am deceiving you, you can refuse to make a deal with me.”

Having said that, she waved her hand gently.

The scene from the outside world appeared before Mu Nanqing’s eyes.

Lu Chuan was lying on the ground, his complexion growing paler, the light in his eyes fading bit by bit, and he looked as though he was about to lose consciousness.

Meanwhile, Zhou Kun was holding two elixir pills, unknown to her, attempting to stuff them into her and Suzumiya Ichikazu’s mouths.

“I’m giving you this one chance, oh, if you don’t make a decision now, this kid might just die, and that man will defile you and the girl next to you as if you were playthings.

This won’t be any pleasant experience,” Xiu Niang observed Mu Nanqing and said.

Mu Nanqing looked at the scene outside with great urgency on her face.

She didn’t care what happened to her, but if Lu Chuan died, it would be more painful than killing her.

She glanced at Xiu Niang, feeling that this mysterious woman indeed had no need to deceive her.

The various means she had shown were far from ordinary, and if she had any other intentions, Mu Nanqing would be unable to resist anyway.

After a moment of thought, Mu Nanqing asked, “If I give you my soul, is there any difference from being dead?”

Xiu Niang replied with a smile, “Not much different, you see.

To save someone else’s life, naturally you need to offer something of equal value.”

Mu Nanqing bit her lip.

Although she feared death, she feared even more the thought of living while Lu Chuan departed from this world.

She would live in torment for the rest of her life.

“You’d better make your decision quickly.

The fact that I have decided to trade with you is already a chance given.

If it were someone else, I wouldn’t even offer the opportunity to trade,” urged Xiu Niang.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Nanqing said, “Alright, I agree with you.

I’ll exchange my soul for Xiaochuan’s life, but once everything is over, you must give me some time to say goodbye to Xiaochuan.”

Xiu Niang nodded, “That can be arranged.”

“Then we consider this deal done.”

After speaking, she snapped her fingers lightly.

The scenery before Mu Nanqing’s eyes changed, and she found her consciousness had returned to her body.

Zhou Kun was at that moment using one hand to pry open her mouth, about to force an elixir pill into it, “Beauty, after eating this pill, you’ll experience ecstasy.”

She looked anxious and bellowed, “You said the deal was already made!

What are you hesitating for?”

A laugh echoed in the courtyard, “What’s the rush?

This guy can’t touch you.”

The black ring gently floated out from Mu Nanqing’s clothing and then burst into a blinding light.

The entire courtyard became a vast white expanse, and everyone was momentarily blinded.

Zhou Kun sensed a strong feeling of danger, but before he could react, his body was penetrated by the blinding light, freezing him in place.

His eyes were full of terror, despair, and unwillingness.

As Mu Nanqing’s sight returned, looking again at Zhou Kun, she was shocked to discover that he had no breath of life left, obviously dead.

Suzumiya Ichikazu, beside her, had no idea what had happened and was scared stiff.

After dealing with Zhou Kun, another power was released from the ring into Lu Chuan’s body, starting to heal his wounds.

Subsequently, a purple light shot out from the ring, entering the spot between Mu Nanqing’s brows.

The black ring, as if it had completed its final mission, crumbled into dust and dissipated into the air.

Mu Nanqing only felt a severe headache coming from her head, subconsciously pressing on her temples.

Then, the voice of Xiu Niang came through her ears again, “That lad will recover in half a day.

You should say your final goodbyes to him then, after which I will claim your soul.”

Mu Nanqing nodded her head, the pain in her head eased a lot, this time she felt as if Xiu Niang was speaking directly in her mind.

“Could this be the procedure required for claiming a soul?”

Without thinking further, Mu Nanqing hurried to Lu Chuan’s side, helped him up, and only after seeing that his wounds were indeed healing did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Half a day later.

Lu Chuan woke up groggily.

He immediately sat up, his nerves tensing, ready to fight to the death with Zhou Kun.

However, the next second, he found himself sitting on the bed in his bedroom, and Zhou Kun had long disappeared without a trace.

His face was full of confusion, not understanding what was going on.

“Wasn’t I gravely injured, hanging on by a thread?

Why do my wounds seem to have healed already?” Lu Chuan touched his chest but couldn’t find any trace of injury.

At this moment, Mu Nanqing walked in.

Seeing that Lu Chuan had awakened, she cried tears of joy, “Xiaochuan, you’re awake.”

Upon seeing Mu Nanqing, Lu Chuan quickly got out of bed and walked over to her, asking with concern, “Sister-in-law, are you alright?

Where’s that bastard Zhou Kun?

Did he do anything to you and Ichikazu?”

Remembering the last thing he saw before losing consciousness, Zhou Kun feeding Mu Nanqing and Suzumiya Ichikazu elixir pills, Lu Chuan couldn’t help but feel tense.

He was very worried that Zhou Kun had succeeded and that his own recovery was due to having been in a coma for a long time.

Mu Nanqing shook her head and said, “Zhou Kun is dead, and neither Ichikazu nor I have suffered at his hands.”

The doubts in Lu Chuan’s heart deepened.

He stared at Mu Nanqing and asked urgently, “Sister-in-law, you wouldn’t be lying to me just to spare my feelings, would you?

Zhou Kun is a Profound Realm skillful expert, how could he die so easily?”

Mu Nanqing took a deep breath and told him everything about the black ring.

Then she hugged Lu Chuan, crying, “Xiaochuan, my soul will soon be taken away by that divine spirit, and from now on, you might never see me again.

But you must promise me, you must live well.

You are still young, and the future is promising.

I believe you will become a great figure who commands the wind and clouds in this world.

It’s just that I won’t be able to see it…”

Listening to Mu Nanqing talk about divine spirits, soul transactions, and the last streak of purple light entering her forehead, Lu Chuan’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

He didn’t believe in divine spirits striking soul bargains with mortals, but this Xiu Niang Mu Nanqing mentioned was certainly no ordinary person, or else she wouldn’t have been able to kill Zhou Kun so effortlessly.

He was more inclined to think that Xiu Niang was a high-level Cultivator who had to remain in that ring for some reason.

Connecting that to the soul transaction Mu Nanqing spoke of and the purple light that entered her forehead, Lu Chuan guessed that Xiu Niang’s talk of soul transactions was most likely an attempt at Body Possession by Soul.

And within the Cultivation World, only those at the Nascent Soul Stage or above had the ability to possess another’s body!

After reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, the Divine Soul transforms into the Nascent Soul, and even if the physical body is destroyed, as long as the Nascent Soul remains, death can still be avoided.

Lu Chuan guessed that Xiu Niang was a Nascent Soul Stage expert whose physical body had been destroyed, forcing her to hide inside the black ring.

And her disguise as a divine spirit, proposing a soul transaction with Mu Nanqing, was actually with the true intention to possess her body.

Because Body Possession by Soul is extremely difficult; if the target strongly resists, the difficulty of the possession increases dramatically.

Lu Chuan guessed that Xiu Niang chose to trade in this manner, killing Zhou Kun and saving him, in order to gain Mu Nanqing’s trust and improve the chances of a successful possession.

Although if it wasn’t for Xiu Niang’s intervention, Lu Chuan might already be dead, he couldn’t accept Mu Nanqing being possessed by someone else, so he quickly interrupted her, saying, “Sister-in-law, stop crying and come lie down on the bed.”

He must do everything in his power to prevent Xiu Niang from possessing Mu Nanqing.

Mu Nanqing paused, thinking to herself that she would soon lose her soul, and yet Xiao Chuan was not biding her a tearful farewell; instead, he was asking her to lie down on the bed?

Could it be…

that Xiaochuan wanted to take the opportunity of these last few moments to make love to her?

Her face flushed at the thought, but considering she might never see Lu Chuan again, if she could truly become his woman in these last moments, it would be quite satisfying for her too.

So she obediently lied down on the bed, and even began unbuttoning her clothes.

“Xiaochuan, although it’s a bit…

strange to say goodbye in this way, I don’t mind,” Mu Nanqing said with a flushed face.

Lu Chuan’s eyes widened in surprise upon seeing Mu Nanqing starting to undress.

He quickly reached out and grabbed Mu Nanqing’s hand.

Confused, Mu Nanqing asked, “Xiaochuan, what’s wrong?”

Lu Chuan’s face twisted with conflict, as he dared not tell Mu Nanqing that she had been deceived by Xiu Niang.

Since Xiu Niang’s Nascent Soul had already entered Mu Nanqing’s mind, if he spoke out, Xiu Niang would surely hear, and that might lead to an uncontrollable turn of events.

In order not to reveal any abnormalities, he had no choice but to say, “Don’t move…

I’ll do it.”

Mu Nanqing was stunned for a moment, then shyly nodded her head, “Okay.”

Lu Chuan took a deep breath and directly straddled Mu Nanqing’s body.
