Chapter 379 Reaping the bitter fruit
"Yue Luo is going to kill me!"
Chang Yu Muling was startled, and then realized that Zhongli Yueluo was not on land.
She was in the water, and just moments ago she had looked smug, but now she was pretending to be pitiful, her body about to sink.
Its hands kept flailing, and it was blowing bubbles from its mouth.
I don't know if it was tears or water, but it looked pitiful and touching.
"Mu Ling, don't worry about me, save Miss Jiang and Miss Xu first!"
Listen to such a righteous and awe-inspiring speech, you would never associate her with a bad person.
Jiang gritted her teeth. Although she had made the first move, she had clearly seen threads manipulating the leech monster.
At this moment, the leech monster was about to break free from Zhongli Yueluo's control and was thrashing about on the ice.
In Changyu Muling's eyes, Zhongli Yueluo was far more important than the two noble ladies behind her.
The earthen wall crumbled instantly in front of Jiang Shi. Zhongli Yueluo narrowed his eyes, and Jiang Shi could tell what he was saying just by looking at his mouth.
"He'll only help me, not you!"
Jiang gritted her teeth; the wound from the bite had already begun to fester and was not healing at all.
Even if you use fire to burn it, you can only temporarily dispel its toxins.
Xu, meanwhile, was running around like a headless fly, yelling loudly.
Chang Yu Muling built an earthen bridge and extended it to Zhongli Yueluo's side: "Yueluo, come up quickly!"
Zhongli Yueluo felt that the water was her domain, and the leeches especially disliked harming people on the shore.
He deliberately sank down as if pulled by something, his entire head submerged in the water.
Changyu Muling panicked and tried to jump into the water, but was firmly entangled by Jiang Shi's rope.
"Young Master Changyu, you mustn't! What is her status, and what is yours?"
Changyu Muling disliked these women from aristocratic families because they clearly defined their social status.
Some people threw the rope away with disgust: "Who is she? It's none of your business to judge her!"
Just as they stood up, about to jump back in, the leech monster attacked them again, spitting out acid and twisting its massive body.
All three of them were injured and about to be defeated, but Zhongli Yueluo's only goal was the Jiang family.
She must die here today!
There wasn't any deep-seated hatred between them, it's just that if she wanted her dead, then she had to bear the consequences herself.
The leech's head seemed to be forcibly pulled towards Jiang Shi by some kind of silk thread.
Zhongli Yueluo would occasionally pop her head up from the water to show that she was still alive.
Chang Yu Muling was anxious, but she also had to defend against attacks coming from elsewhere, so she had no time to pay attention to Zhong Li Yueluo.
She seemed to be having a great time in the water.
Just then, a leech bit Jiang's shoulder, and he let out a painful scream: "Ah!"
Xu Shi hid to the side, not daring to step forward to help, and just stood there watching blankly.
Something inside me seemed to shatter; I never imagined that everything in this secret realm was real!
"Mrs. Xu, aren't you going to come and help me?"
Xu was timid as a mouse and remained motionless.
Chang Yu Muling dared not swing her sword, fearing that it would cause his body to split apart again.
It will be a fire-inducing technique, but how can a single spark start a prairie fire?
A leech ripped off one of her shoulders, and she clutched her shoulder in misery and pain.
"Yue Luo! It must be you!"
Zhongli Yueluo lay on a piece of driftwood, revealing a sinister smile to her as she tilted her head.
That means, "It's me, so what can you do to me?"
Without thinking twice, blinded by rage, she jumped up and plunged into the water.
Chang Yu Muling felt a tightness in her chest. Zhongli Yueluo hadn't been saved yet, and now another member of the Jiang family had gone!
With anger in his eyes, Jiang walked towards Zhongli Yueluo, determined to strangle her even if he only had one hand.
But the water was extremely cold; as soon as you jumped in, you could feel your limbs gradually freezing.
Zhongli Yueluo swam to her side like a fish, close to her ear: "Want to kill me? Don't you know your own limitations?"
"Yue Luo!"
That was a heart-wrenching scream, but the leech's howl drowned out her scream!
Zhongli Yueluo grabbed Jiang Shi's hand and placed it on her neck: "Come on, strangle me?"
Looking at Zhongli Yueluo, whose hair was stuck to her face and whose body was covered in blood, Jiang Shi felt as if she were Youluo from the Netherworld.
But what Changyu Muling saw was Jiang grabbing Zhongli Yueluo's neck!
Zhongli Yueluo gave a playful smile: "Miss Jiang, what are you doing? Let me go! Miss Jiang..."
Jiang was stunned. She hadn't exerted any force at all, while Zhongli Yueluo's face turned bright red.
She's ruthless; she actually wrapped invisible threads around her neck!
Chang Yu and Mu Ling shouted hoarsely from the shore, "What are you doing!"
Jiang tried to pull her hand back, but it was tightly bound by the silk threads and she couldn't move. Zhongli Yuelu tilted her head.
"Miss Jiang, if I have offended you in any way, please tell me. Why do you have to take my life?"
"Yueluo! Let me go!"
"Miss Jiang! I beg you, please don't kill me..."
Chang Yu Muling's eyes were only on Zhongli Yueluo, whose face was red from being choked, who was gasping for breath, and whose eyes were bulging.
Meanwhile, the leech had already been entangled by Zhongli Yueluo's silk threads and was slowly pulled behind her.
Chang Yu and Mu Ling drew their swords, creating ripples on the water's surface and separating the two of them once again.
The threads controlling the leeches were also cut at that moment, and the leeches lunged at Jiang's body.
Xu stood on the shore, watching helplessly as Jiang was swallowed whole by leeches.
Even more blood splattered out as Zhongli Yueluo and Jiang were entangled.
Fire talismans have already been placed on her body.
He died, and she got a good deal by doing him a meritorious deed.
The leech crunched and chewed on Jiang Shi, and then with a bang, the entire leech exploded.
Zhongli Yueluo immediately submerged in the water, avoiding the red and white objects.
The two people on the shore were not spared either, their bodies covered in a sour, reddish-white liquid.
Zhongli Yueluo's head popped out, and she looked like she was crying on the water.
"Miss Jiang... Miss Jiang... I never expected that she would self-destruct for the sake of us!"
"It's all because of me. If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have jumped into the water."
As it spoke, the other leeches around it, which had lost control of their original bodies, gradually withered away.
Then, the twisted and turbulent ground gradually returned to calm.
The atmosphere is a bit heavy right now.
Madam Xu has gone mad. She dares not tell the truth, after all, they were the ones who harmed Zhongli Yueluo first.
Chang Yu Muling pulled Zhong Li Yueluo out of the water, and she didn't have a single injury on her body.
Except for the red marks on his neck from being pinched by fingers.
"How are we going to explain this to Madam Jiang?" Then he glanced at Madam Xu with a meaningful look in his eyes.
She trembled as she said, "Miss Jiang bravely sacrificed herself to save us all, perishing together with the leech monster."
Zhongli Yueluo smiled with satisfaction, then grabbed Changyu Muling's sleeves with both hands, pretending to be scared.
