Chapter 141: Corrupting the Blood of the Gods

Seeing Jumengs frightening expression, Lu Yibeis palms felt sweaty, and his brain started to come up with various lies and excuses to save himself. Fighting a goddess like Jumeng is pointless, so the only way out is through negotiation!

Plus, Jumeng barely exerted any strength the last time they fought; if anything, Yibei almost died trying to wound her.

Whats wrong? By the way, isnt the weather nice today? Yibei mentioned it with an expressionless face.

Hmm Jumeng narrowed her eyes as she glanced at him. What are you acting dumb for? Need me to remind you of the wholesome and generous things you have done to me?

Lu Yibeis face turned pale, and he hurriedly replied, I-I humbly apologise I dont know what you mean; I mean, I helped an old lady across the street, I stuffed some money into a homeless girls piggy bank, and I helped that student get away from his class.

Thats not what I meant! Jumeng bellowed, her voice shaking the apartment, as she took off her shirt and pointed at her porcelain-like belly. Look at what youve done to me!

Lu Yibei hurriedly covered his eyes with his hands, intermittently peeking through the gaps of his fingers before hiding them again.

However, Jumeng did not budge, and he reluctantly took his hands away. In an instant, he noticed a wisp of black mist emitting out of Jumengs lower abdomen as if it were alive.

You Jumeng pointed. I cant believe you would use the blood of corrupted gods to poison me!

What? Yibeis eyes widened. What are you talking about?

Ill have you know that if Im contaminated with such filthy and unclean things, I might just turn into a degenerate! And when that time comes, the entire Huacheng will not be able to escape, especially you, little boy.

I gave you nothing but grace, Jumeng sighed. All you had to do was collect cores for me, and you get to come home to an obedient and beautiful goddess, and yet

Oh, you are just shameless, Yibei inwardly pouted as he cleared his throat.

I really do not know what youre talking about. I split the core in half, gave one half to a hungry girl, and you get to eat the other half.

Youre acting stupid again.

I swear! I dont know what youre talking about!

Hearing this, Jumeng squinted at the contract mark on the back of his hand and sighed.

What kind of urban legend was it? Jumeng asked. Judging from my reaction, you gave me the core of a corrupted, fallen god.

After dealing with the incredibly jealous goddess, Yibei went upstairs to retrieve the bamboo scrolls.

Placing the box on the table, he unlocked it, and Jumeng immediately shrank back away from the box and pinched her nose. It stinks! What the hell did you bring home?

What? It doesnt even smell like anything, Yibei replied as he leaned forward to sniff. All he could smell was the slight fragrance of bamboo and camphor wood.

Youre human, so you cant smell it. All I can smell is the stench of a corrupted god.

But when I transformed into a witch, I couldnt smell anything either. Is something wrong with me or her?

Well, these are the original bamboo scrolls I asked you to translate yesterday. If anything dangerous comes out of it, you get to have it as your food.

Jumeng was silent.

Why are you being so quiet? I thought you wanted cores? Yibei asked.

Well, I didnt expect to be eating turds to recover.

Theyre still a source of cores; if you dont want them, I can continue making charms!

Absolutely not! I am an ancient goddess! This is an acquired taste, she retaliated, putting her fist to her chest.

Whatever, lets take a look. Yibei rolled his eyes, and the two got closer to the box.

She carefully took the bamboo scrolls out of the box and untied the thread that held the scrolls together with a look of disgust as if she were unwrapping a piece of turd.

The moment she unfolded the bamboo scrolls, Yibei suddenly felt a sharp burning pain in his eyes, and a strong sense of uneasiness hit his nerves.

The special characters on the bamboo slips were glowing red and dancing a malicious dance, and after a moment, the characters pounced towards Jumeng.

Seeing this, he lunged forward and smacked the scrolls out of her hands before toppling over her with his body over hers.

W-wait, I can explain

Oh! Jumeng smiled seductively, wrapping her fingers around Yibeis neck. I understand whats happening.
