The God of the Human Realm!
Chapter 4 Sudden Murder
Chapter 4 Sudden Murder
Upon hearing this, Wang Ai's face turned deathly pale.
His strong and sturdy body, nearly two meters tall and imposing, was now so weak that he could barely stand, staggering as if he were about to fall at any moment.
No matter how gifted he was, he couldn't withstand the power of the 'Mother of Power'.
Hong Yuan's expression also changed drastically, and he was ready to launch an attack at any moment.
He didn't move, but glanced at the strong women on both sides out of the corner of his eye, thinking about the angle and timing for breaking through, or perhaps it would be better to kidnap that old fat pig and use him as a hostage.
This transmigration started off badly. He woke up to find himself in such a 'devil's den,' not even given a moment to develop. The only thing Hong Yuan could rely on was his enhanced body.
How to do?
Just as Hong Yuan was pondering a solution, a soft laugh rang out from behind a curtain, followed by a languid female voice: "Mother of Mighty Virtue, you are far too impatient. Before even bestowing the immortal destiny, you are already eager to embrace people, and even took away the two best immortal seedlings at the same time. Are we left only with scraps?"
"Oh? Lady Si Yan, do you have a problem with me?"
"I dare not, but I fear that the Buddha Mother's actions have broken the rules."
'Mother of Mighty Virtue' chuckled, her voice hoarse and grating: 'Hehe Fairy, Jade Soul... do you all think the same way?'
Before the words were finished, a slender, fair hand lifted a corner of the curtain on the right side of 'Mahamati Buddha Mother', revealing half of a foxy face, half-hidden, while a slow, leisurely voice drifted out.
"Buddha Mother, please don't take your anger out on us. Yu Po is weak and can't handle it... Lady Si Yan's words are a bit excessive. This hall is full of the finest immortal seedlings, not leftovers."
Lady Jade Soul's alluring eyes swept around the hall before she lowered the curtain and smiled, "However, Mother Buddha seems to have forgotten that this gathering is slightly different. Lady Xuan Su ascended to the Golden Palace half a month ago, abandoning us six sisters to enjoy bliss in the Immortal Realm. Fortunately, we have a new sister here. Today is Lady Tan Xin's first time attending this Blissful Immortal Gathering in the Azure Phoenix Immortal Realm. With your magnanimous heart, how could Mother Buddha not give her some special treatment and share a little?"
A soft voice came from behind the leftmost curtain: "I am very grateful for Sister Yu Po's kindness. However, I am new to the Immortal Realm and will leave everything to the elder sisters. I dare not ask the Buddha Mother for preferential treatment."
'Mother of Mighty Virtue' ignored the woman named Tanxin, her fat face dark and ferocious. After a moment's thought, she coldly snorted, "Fine!"
Her small eyes darted between Hong Yuan and Wang Ai, as if picking through merchandise, and she pointed at Hong Yuan: "Let's give this immortal seedling to Lady Tanxin."
She knew the other five were very playful and was afraid they would ruin her fun after just one round, leaving her with nothing to play with. However, since 'Lady Tanxin' was a newcomer, she should be more restrained.
"Thank you, Mother Buddha!" 'Lady Tanxin' lifted the curtain, revealing a gentle and charming face of a beautiful woman. Her hair was adorned with pearls and jade, giving her a graceful demeanor. Her soft eyes glanced at Hong Yuan below, seemingly shy and timid.
'Vajra Buddha Mother' then looked at Wang Ai, licked her lips, and seemed to have lost interest in the others. "This time, I will choose this one immortal seedling. You can divide the rest among yourselves."
Wang Ai trembled all over, and finally collapsed to the ground with a thud, his head spinning and his chest pounding like a drum. He also caught a glimpse of the 'Lady Tanxin', feeling both jealous and hateful. He dared not target the 'Buddha Mother of Might', but instead stared at Hong Yuan with a venomous gaze.
Seeing her disheveled appearance, the fairies on the high platform burst into laughter. Lady Jade Soul praised, "The Buddha Mother is indeed magnanimous."
'Mother of Mighty Virtue' waved her hand to interrupt: 'I have something else to say. Let's set the next celestial gathering for after January.'
The lazy voice of "Lady Siyan" drifted over: "Our gatherings are usually held once every three months. Has Mother Buddha seen a promising talent and can't wait? Indeed, even I am tempted by such a talented immortal, and would like to take him under my wing immediately!"
'Mother of Mighty Virtue' snorted again, waving her fat, greasy hand: 'Bestow upon me immortality!'
As soon as she finished speaking, the two people in colorful clothes beside 'Mother of Mighty Virtue' each took a flower basket, covered it with a brocade handkerchief, and walked down from the high platform. One of them went towards Yang Lie, the hook-nosed youth and others, while the other went towards Hong Yuan and Wang Ai's side.
"May you have a hundred taels of divine favor, and may the fairy maiden bestow blessings upon you! May you live forever and enjoy ultimate bliss!"
The woman in colorful clothes lifted her embroidered handkerchief and took out a stack of bluish-gray silver notes, distributing them one by one, immediately eliciting a low exclamation: "Hundred-tael silver notes from Baojizhenji?!"
Even Wang Ai, who was slumped on the ground, perked up as soon as he received the hundred-tael silver note. He sat up abruptly, pressed the note to his forehead, brought it to his nose and sniffed it, looking intoxicated.
On the other hand, Yang Lie and the hook-nosed youth, although excited, managed to control themselves, carefully hiding the silver notes on their bodies.
Hong Yuan finally understood why these 'old men' had come here more than once, and why they were still filled with both trepidation and longing. It was truly a case of money stirring the heart.
In this world, in Qingxu County, ordinary people at the bottom of society can only earn two or three coins a month, barely enough to make ends meet. Earning one or two taels a month is considered a good income. However, with all kinds of exorbitant taxes and the exploitation by the government and even gangs, without some backing, they can't save any money at all throughout the year.
One hundred taels of silver is undoubtedly an enormous sum of money!
If it happens every time someone comes, it would be considered a truly extraordinary stroke of luck for many people!
Even if you're unlucky enough to be chosen by that 'Mother of Power', you can just close your eyes and tough it out; it's not like you're going to die.
On the streets, many people have lost their lives for just two or three copper coins.
One hundred taels!
"Why don't I have one?" a handsome young man among Hong Yuan's group shouted.
"Shut up!" the man in colorful clothes snapped, glancing at the boy before saying calmly, "You signed a 'Celestial-Mortal Pact' with the Immortal Realm, so your body and soul already belong to the Immortal Realm. You don't have that."
As she spoke, she glanced at Hong Yuan again: "This young man is the same."
"I...I don't know." The handsome young man was a little scared, but thinking of the hundred taels of silver, he said softly, "I was brought here by someone, I didn't sign any 'immortal-celestial contract'..."
Another one who's been sold!
"That's not important!" After handing out the silver notes, the man in colorful clothes covered the bamboo basket and turned to walk onto the stage: "As long as you perform well in the fairy realm and win the favor of the fairy maiden, you will naturally receive a reward from the immortals in the future."
On the platform, the 'Vajra Buddha Mother' stretched out her two fat hands, supported by the two people in colorful clothes on either side. Her huge body, like a mountain of flesh, resembled a monster that devoured human essence and blood. She was breathing rapidly and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm tired. I'll go and rest first."
Her eyes turned to Wang Ai, and the smile on her face resembled that of a demon: "Little darling, come up here quickly and come with this Buddha Mother."
Ding Ding Deng!
Wang Ai staggered back several steps, recovering from the surprise of suddenly receiving a huge sum of money. He forced a smile, but it looked worse than crying. Four strong women were already blocking his way from behind, holding sticks.
The 'Mother of Power' then turned her gaze to Hong Yuan: "And you, young man, don't be impatient. The Mother of Power will select you to join the sect next month!"
I'm sooooooooooooooo!
Hong Yuan had endured and suppressed his anger, but now he could no longer hold back. He felt a surge of fire erupt from the top of his head.
Not bad!
He seemed 'lucky' to have escaped this calamity, and the 'Lady Tanxin' on his left looked even more elegant and beautiful. Perhaps he could even have a one-night stand with her. But in essence, in this demonic abyss, is there any difference between 'Lady Tanxin' and 'Vajra Buddha Mother'?
They're nothing but a lump of rotten meat!
In my past life, the internet was rife with the saying "Rich woman is hungry, looking for a sugar daddy," but in reality, 99% of the time it was just a joke, and nobody took it seriously. Even if someone really wanted to be a sugar daddy, it was an active choice, not this kind of undignified, picky act like pigs or dogs.
Alternatively, Hong Yuan could bide his time for now. After all, there was still a month left, and he could always find a better opportunity. With at least a month to buffer the situation, the probability of him escaping would be much higher.
But he couldn't bear it, not even for a moment!
The word "fat pig" had already risen to his throat when suddenly, a strange change occurred. A bright red light seemed to appear, and a commotion suddenly arose from the manor outside the hall. Many people started running, their footsteps chaotic.
A figure in colorful clothes on the stage glanced around a few times, then suddenly shouted in alarm, "Oh no! Fire! Quick, put it out!"
Upon hearing this, the eight strong women in the hall not only did not leave the hall to fight the fire, but instead rushed towards the high platform, shouting, "Protect the fairy maiden! Protect the Buddha Mother!"
Upon seeing this, the man in colorful clothes changed his expression. He suddenly pulled something from his robes, gripped it tightly in his palm, gritted his teeth, and with what seemed like all his might, smashed it down hard on the head of the 'Mother of Mighty Virtue,' roaring, "Old hag, die!"
Bang!
The next moment, the man in colorful clothes froze, and the 'Vajra Buddha Mother' who was panting even while sitting actually reached out and grabbed the man in colorful clothes's wrist as he slammed down. The force was so great that it seemed she could break his arm!
“You little bastard…” 'Vajra Buddha Mother’s' face was also ferocious and terrifying, drool dripping from her mouth as she roared, and the next moment she let out a cry of pain!
It turned out that another person in colorful clothes had somehow acquired a foot-long, sharpened wooden stick, which he plunged deep into the flesh of 'Mother Weide's' face, penetrating nearly halfway into the skin.
'Vajra Buddha Mother' was in so much pain that her face contorted and she let out a heart-wrenching howl.
boom!
Almost at the same moment that the two men in colorful clothes suddenly sprang up and the eight strong women rushed toward the high platform, Hong Yuan also moved. He suddenly clenched his fist, and with a surge of anger, he threw a punch that hit the back of the head of the last strong woman running!
