Chapter 185: 185: The Legend of Autumn Fairy Kuì Jiàn Chóu (Third Update)

Everyone outside the kitchen held their breath.

Could Great Aunt really defeat it?

Mu Qiuniang scoffed, "Is this all you’ve got? Not even enough to carry my shoes."

Feifei screamed in rage, countless tentacles lashing toward Mu Qiuniang.

But would Mu Qiuniang stand there waiting to be hit?

Of course not. She took a step, as if flowers bloomed beneath her feet. Although she seemed to be walking leisurely, as if admiring the flowers in her backyard, she managed to dodge each of the ghost’s tentacle attacks just in time.

The more relaxed she was, the angrier Feifei got; the angrier Feifei was, the more fiercely it attacked, and the more leisurely Mu Qiuniang moved... thus, a vicious cycle continued.

For some reason, Mu Bai felt a bit sorry for this female ghost. It seemed that after encountering his Great Aunt, it was doomed to misfortune!

The entire kitchen was destroyed by Feifei; if not for the barrier, the walls would have already collapsed.

Seeing that it couldn’t hit Mu Qiuniang, Feifei’s eyes turned blood red with rage: "You vile woman, if you have the guts, don’t dodge!"

After shouting, it launched an even crazier attack toward Mu Qiuniang.

"Don’t dodge? Fine." Mu Qiuniang raised an eyebrow and drew in the air with a brush, summoning a translucent long sword, two fingers wide and three feet long, adorned with intricate white rose vines, as clear as a piece of light blue ice.

The brush disappeared from her hand, and she grasped the long sword, no longer evading. Instead, she charged toward the tentacles. With a few swift movements, the sword danced brilliantly, casting a dazzling display.

[Ah...], Feifei cried out miserably as countless tentacles fell to the ground, leaving it a bald, ugly creature.

Seizing the opportunity, Mu Qiuniang dismissed the sword, drew with the brush in the air, and a giant golden net appeared, enveloping it entirely.

[Ah...]

Once again, Feifei screamed, as if struck by electricity, quivering and shrinking drastically, becoming a charred skeleton lying on the ground.

Mu Qiuniang pointed her brush in the air once more, and the destroyed kitchen was instantly restored to its original state. If it weren’t for Feifei’s shadow on the ground, everything that had happened would have seemed like a dream.

"Great Aunt, are you alright?" Mu Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Mu Cheng’s eyes were dark and contemplative. As a soldier, his first thought was—since Great Aunt was so powerful, could she serve the country?

Mu Jie and Mu Rui were still somewhat in shock, seemingly unable to believe what they had just witnessed was real.

Mu Qing’s focus was on the skeleton. Looking at its pitiful state, he felt extremely troubled. He didn’t know if bringing Great Aunt back was right or wrong.

Mu Qiuniang did not immediately deal with it but instead walked slowly toward it, "Who sent you?"

[Sent me? I really love A-Qing, even if I’m an evil spirit, I’ve never harmed A-Qing...] Feifei seemed to struggle, turning its skull to look at Mu Qing, pleading with him.

Although it had no tears, it looked genuinely saddened and hopeless.

[A-Qing, do you not believe me either? I really love you, I never thought to harm you...]

"Feifei..." Mu Qing was somewhat moved. Even if it was an evil spirit and had harmed others, it had never harmed him, right?

He looked at Mu Qiuniang, his gaze pleading, "Great Aunt, everyone who makes a mistake should have a chance to correct it. Why don’t we give it a chance too, okay?"

Mu Qiuniang didn’t even glance at Mu Qing, only stared at Feifei on the ground, "Are you sure you’ve never harmed him?"

[I swear, I’m sure, I really haven’t...] Feifei didn’t look at Mu Qiuniang, only stared at Mu Qing, pathetically shaking its head, [A-Qing, please, save me. I really love you, I’ve never thought to harm you... If I wanted to harm you, you’d have been dead long ago after so many months together, right? You’re still standing here perfectly fine, you have to believe me...]

Just as Mu Qing was about to say, "I believe you," he was interrupted by Mu Qiuniang, "Do you dare swear to the heavens that the energy in him wasn’t absorbed by you? If he weren’t a Mu family descendant, you’d have sucked him dry. And the reason you haven’t sucked him dry isn’t because you love him, but because you want to use him."

[No, I didn’t!] Feifei firmly denied, [Even if I’m an evil spirit and have harmed others, you can’t just slander me at will.]

"Whether it’s slander, you and I both know. It seems I’ve been away for too long, making everyone forget my existence." Mu Qiuniang’s eyes became indifferent, yet within that indifference was an air of fearsome cruelty, "Once upon a time, at the mention of my name ’Ghost’s Bane Autumn Fairy,’ everyone would flee in terror, eager to be reborn, to start anew..."

Feifei widened its eyes in shock, [Impossible?!]

"Why impossible?" Mu Qiuniang coldly curled her lips.

[The legend of Ghost’s Bane Autumn Fairy disappeared along with the mighty cultivators of the cultivation world hundreds of years ago...]

Over a thousand years ago, the cultivation world was at its peak; spiritual energy was abundant everywhere, and powerful cultivators were everywhere. You could randomly bump into a cultivator on the street, and he might well be a Golden Core Stage expert.

At that time, although Mu Qiuniang was just a small cultivator in the Fusion Stage, behind her was a Master in the Divine Separation Stage, as well as several senior brothers and sisters in the Nascent Soul and Golden Core Stages, plus the Hidden Immortal Sect backing her, she was not to be trifled with.

In particular, Mu Qiuniang was not one to shy away from trouble; despite her only being in the Fusion Stage, even Golden Core Stage experts couldn’t get away unscathed once in her hands.

Mu Qiuniang continually developed her skills, defeating several Golden Core Stage experts, thereby establishing her fearsome reputation as ’Ghost’s Bane.’ She was not to be provoked.

With Mu Qiuniang around, ordinary cultivators dared not casually target the Mu family in the Capital City, let alone those demon and ghost creatures.

But what era is it now? Nowadays, the cultivation world has long fallen into disrepair, the Hidden Immortal Sect keeps a low profile, and there hasn’t been news of Mu Qiuniang for centuries. Everyone speculated that she either ascended with the mighty ones back then or "disappeared" like them.

Yet now, this woman before them claims to be the legendary ’Ghost’s Bane Autumn Fairy’ who was famous across the world?!

Feifei couldn’t believe it. Although it wasn’t born in that era, the legends of her were widely spread in their demon world. It was said that many overly clever spirits fell into her hands, with no good outcomes.

Thus, whenever they encountered her, unless there was deep hatred, it was best to avoid her path.
