Looking at Jixiang lying limp on the ground in front of him, Li Huowang's face showed an extremely ugly expression.
Li Huowang remembered Jixiang saying that men's hearts are impure and women's hearts are still pure, and when these two impure hearts come together, even Zhuge Yuan couldn't handle the situation.
Li Huowang didn't know how strong Zhuge Yuan was, but he knew that he was in real trouble now.
"Huowang, what's wrong with this eunuch?" Bai Lingmiao, who was alert to her surroundings, clearly didn't know the seriousness of the situation.
Taking a deep breath, Li Huowang suppressed his strong anxiety, he didn't care about his own life and death, but he couldn't let Bai Lingmiao be implicated!
Li Huowang quickly stepped forward, helped Jixiang up from the ground, and asked anxiously, "Lord Jixiang! Don't give up! This situation isn't hopeless yet! Think about how the others in the Si family escaped from this situation?"
Upon hearing this, Jixiang looked at Li Huowang and said with deep despair, "You don't understand anything, there are no survivors in this kind of situation!"
Just as Li Huowang was about to say something else, he became alert to the stares coming from all directions and tightened his grip on his sword hilt.
Gradually, a group of people walked out of the woods, all of them looking exactly like the thing Li Huowang caught.
They hunched their backs, crouched in the distance, and stared at Li Huowang and his group with their protruding goldfish eyes.
"Newcomers again? Great!"
"That girl looks really good. Hehe."
"Yeah, she has a big butt."
Their whispers made Li Huowang's expression fierce. He quickly swung his copper coin sword like a whip, dragging it like a long whip towards these things.
However, these things didn't even try to dodge Li Huowang's attack. They simply used their thin and emaciated bodies to take the hit.
The sharp copper coins cut through their bodies like slicing tofu, but they didn't do anything after being cut into pieces. They lay on the ground, wriggling and speaking.
"Don't worry, we won't do anything. We'll just wait."
"Wait for a year, wait for two years, wait for three years, until you become like us."
These people's words made Li Huowang feel a chilling feeling in his heart. They were no longer human, these people who had been forgotten and distorted into monsters over the long years by impure hearts.
Li Huowang cursed inwardly, no longer caring about the things around him, and turned to pick up Jixiang again.
"Lord Jixiang, it's just being trapped, it's nothing! Think about it carefully! Think about the people waiting for you to go back home!"
Hearing Li Huowang's words, Jixiang seemed to remember something, and the fear and despair in his eyes quickly diminished.
"Yes, she's still waiting for me at home! I have to take her back to the village! I won't do this anymore!"Seeing this scene, Li Huowang breathed a sigh of relief and calmly asked, "Ji Xiang, think carefully, what can we do to get out of here?"
Ji Xiang, who had barely regained his composure, patted his face hard, and after a moment of calm reflection, he looked up and said to the others, "Now that their karma is equal, one yin and one yang, we won't be able to leave. The only way to break the situation is to find the living female Heart Muddled."
Ji Xiang became more and more calm and his speech became faster.
"Yes, find the female Heart Muddled! If we can turn her into a dead person, there might still be a chance!"
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly rushed towards the forest to find the so-called female Heart Muddled.
Tree after tree fell in front of them as Li Huowang and Bai Lingmiao searched the forest.
"Bai Lingmiao, this place is useless, we can't contact any Immortals." Bai Lingmiao, who had been beating a drum, was very annoyed and said to Li Huowang.
Li Huowang had already anticipated this situation. In this kind of situation, how could Immortals be of any use?
"Blindly searching won't work. It seems we have to use talismans to divine." Li Huowang wanted to take out the ginger paper, but he found that he had already burned it to ashes.
This novel is available on "pawread dot com".
"Do you have any yellow paper?" Li Huowang asked Bai Lingmiao.
Bai Lingmiao thought for a moment and took out a small paper horse made of yellow paper from her pocket. "I used this for a ritual dance, see if you can use it."
Li Huowang quickly unfolded it and went to the man who had been peeking at him from behind a tree, carrying a bloody skull after a while to divine.
Looking at the divination on the paper, Li Huowang threw the skull in his hand and continued to search.
However, the divination that had always been accurate in the past was unexpectedly useless this time. No matter how they searched, they couldn't find the pattern on the divination.
After a day and night, Tuoba Danqing finally found them. "Quick, Hong Da has found her!"
Ignoring their deep exhaustion, the three of them hurried back.
They soon returned and saw Tuoba Danqing fiercely removing the head of the female Heart Muddled and throwing it on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Li Huowang's heart tightened, nervously observing everything in the pitch-black surroundings.
However, after a long time, there was still no change in the surroundings, and none of the hidden people had disappeared.
"What's going on?" Li Huowang couldn't help but ask.
At this moment, the head of the female Heart Muddled on the ground slowly moved towards her body. Although her eyes were lifeless, she was definitely alive.
Hearing their actions, extremely harsh laughter came from all around.
"Hahaha! You still want to kill her? Don't you know that no one can die here?"
"Do you think we don't want to die? We've wanted to die a long time ago! Do you know what's scarier than death? It's living like this forever!"The words sent a chill down the spines of everyone present. To break the deadlock, they had to kill the woman with the tainted heart, but she couldn't die in this place!
The next moment, Bai Lingmiao pulled out the Purple Scepter Sword from Li Huowang's body and forcefully slashed it across Hong Da's neck.
Seeing that Hong Da was bleeding profusely but showed no signs of dying, everyone instantly understood their current predicament.
This had become a seemingly unsolvable deadlock.
The chief minister's face crumbled, and he wanted to say something, but a fist fiercely smashed into his face.
"You damn eunuch! This is all your fault! If it weren't for you bringing us here to catch that damn tainted heart, we wouldn't be in this mess!"
It was Tuoba Danqing, who had completely changed from his usual easygoing demeanor, and completely disregarded hierarchy and respect. He furiously charged at the chief minister and began punching and kicking his former superior.
