Peerless: The Evil Soul Master's Guide to Saving the World

Chapter 140: It’s not too much to carve an inscription
In a cold and damp cave.

Ma Xiaotao's hands were locked with an iron chain each and she was hung in the air with her head lowered as if she was in deep sleep. There were some strange patterns on the chains, which were the products of Mingde Hall of the Sun and Moon Empire and were used to seal soul power.

Since she opened her eyes again a few days ago, she has been here. She originally wanted to use the evil fire to burn through this dark and dirty cave, but she was horrified to find that she could not mobilize even a bit of her soul power!

Afterwards, the guy who was called the leader by the people around, who was also the one who kidnapped her, came to persuade her several times, hoping that she would join the Holy Spirit Church and be called a saint. However, as a Shrek person, she had her own pride, and how could she associate with this group of dirty rats in the gutter, so she decisively refused...

"boom!"

Accompanied by the shabby wooden door being pushed open.

In the dim little house, a man in a black robe appeared in front of Ma Xiaotao.

The latter still hung his head and pretended to be dead.

The black-robed man gently lifted his hood, revealing an old face. He stared at Ma Xiaotao with a smile on his face: "Saintess, since you are unwilling to become the Saintess of my sect, the Sect Leader's patience has run out, and he can only send me here to use some 'special means'. I hope that Saintess can understand..."

"What are you going to do?!" Ma Xiaotao suddenly raised her head, her pretty face full of anger.

"I've already told you, these are just some little tricks. Haha, go to sleep, and everything will be fine when you wake up again..." A strange smile appeared on the old man's face. He took out a syringe and a small medicine bottle from the storage soul guide, sucked the turbid liquid in the medicine bottle into the syringe, and then slowly stepped forward.

"I will join your Holy Spirit Church! Go back and tell your leader! I am willing to join!" Ma Xiaotao looked terrified and kept shaking the chains, but it was no avail. All her previous powerful strength disappeared, and the fire demon of the past now looked as delicate as an ordinary woman.

Obviously, she had heard about some of the methods used by the Holy Spirit Church to control souls or bewitch minds. It was said that even Soul Douluo and even Titled Douluo would be affected, not to mention her whose soul power was sealed...

She doesn't want to become a walking corpse!

"Haha, Saint Lady, you don't have to use this little trick to deceive us. You should be thinking of pretending to surrender and then looking for the right time to escape." The old man's eyes were full of smiles. He originally planned to give her a chance to [abandon the light and join the dark], but for some reason, the leader suddenly lost his patience and ordered him to come, so she no longer had a chance...

"Shrek will not let you go! You bunch of damn insects! Despicable guys!" Ma Xiaotao struggled in anger, but slowly turned to fear. Seeing the sharp needle approaching her neck, she closed her eyes in despair, and a line of tears flowed down.

“Hehehe, just relying on that weak Shrek, you should know that we rushed into the Sea God Lake openly and captured you. If they have the guts, they would come to your door to fight for you.” Nangong Wan smiled evilly.

Goodbye, Shrek...

Goodbye, everyone.

But after a long while, there was no reaction at all, and he didn't even feel the pain of the needle pricking his neck.

Ma Xiaotao opened her eyes suspiciously, and her pupils suddenly shrank.

A rather strange scene appeared in the house.

It was as if time had stopped. The cold needle was pressed against her neck. If it got a little closer, it would pierce her skin. The old man not far away showed a strange smile, but did not move...

and many more!

She didn't dare to move at all, and her eyes slowly turned to the side.

"Xu Cheng! It's you!"

"Hiss... I can actually recognize her. It seems that she is not really big-breasted and brainless." Xu Cheng, who appeared at some point, lifted his hood to reveal a handsome and even somewhat weird face. He gently patted the dust off his sleeves and looked at Ma Xiaotao with interest. The latter was still wearing the Shrek inner courtyard clothes. The originally brand new dark red clothes looked a little tattered at this moment. Although the girl's face was a little pale, it could not hide her beauty, especially her proud figure. Being hung up in the prison made people easily think of something wrong...

Xu Cheng smacked his lips.

As expected, her figure was highlighted in the original novel. It was like a ripe peach. Looking at all the girls, there was really no one who could surpass her.

"What do you want to do!" Ma Xiaotao asked cautiously. In front of Xu Cheng, she seemed to have no privacy. Even her underwear was seen through...

Ma Xiaotao thought her voice sounded stern, but in fact, in Xu Cheng's eyes, it was just like acting like a spoiled child.

"Follow me." Xu Cheng raised his lips, "Of course, you can also choose to get an injection. This liquid is the so-called 'holy water' of the Holy Spirit Church. After the injection, no matter if you are a Soul Emperor or a Soul Saint, you are destined to be obedient..."

"You, come to save me?" Ma Xiaotao's mind froze for a moment, and she looked at Xu Cheng in disbelief.

You, the Son of the Holy Spirit, come and save me?

Is your brain going crazy?
"Who said I came to save you?" Xu Cheng glanced at the confused Ma Xiaotao and smiled: "It would be a serious crime to let you go back to Shrek without permission. I have only met you a few times. Is it worth doing this?"

"Now I give you two choices. One, stay here and become a walking corpse. Two, work for me and I will keep your sanity. Choose one."

"Working for you? Killing ordinary civilians wantonly and bringing disaster to the world? What's the difference between that and becoming an evil spirit master?" Ma Xiaotao sneered and turned her head, revealing her snow-white neck. "I knew you had bad intentions, but it's true. We're all a bunch of insects, what's the difference?"

"If you work for me, I won't force you to attack ordinary people, nor will I kill people, let alone help the tyrants..." Xu Cheng smiled, "But if you don't want to, I won't force you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Wait! I... accept!" Ma Xiaotao said hesitantly.

Although she didn't know what conflicts there were within the Holy Spirit Church, and there seemed to be other secrets hidden in it, she was unwilling to become a mindless walking corpse.

So she had already made her choice...

"Okay, next, he will still inject you with drugs, but you won't be brainwashed. After it's over, remember to pretend to be numb and have lost your memory."

Xu Cheng smiled, seemingly not surprised.

"Since you've chosen to work for me, it wouldn't be too much to show some sincerity."

"What do you mean?" Ma Xiaotao's eyes narrowed.

"Of course, it is to leave a mark on your mind, so that you won't sneak away during the tasks." Xu Cheng looked at Ma Xiaotao, as if he was choosing a convenient place.

"You, you..." Ma Xiaotao stuttered.

"It's okay if you don't accept it. I don't like to force things." Xu Cheng sighed softly, "Looking at your sad face, I thought I was forcing you."

"Yes!" Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly, "Hurry up, don't dawdle!"
