Wife is hell

Chapter 57 Capturing the Woman in Green

Inside the hall, light and shadow danced.

Outside, torrential rain poured down, washing away the roof tiles as if trying to cleanse the place of its sins.

Several corpses lay sprawled on the floor inside the hall, their deaths gruesome.

Amidst this chaos, a man and a woman who usually respect and love each other are now locked in a gruesome struggle, their screams and whimpers mingling with curses.

Jiang Mu gently rubbed his temples and closed his eyes to rest.

He seemed oblivious to the battle raging before him, focusing instead on regulating his breathing and trying to recover his strength.

After a long while, the sounds of fighting finally stopped.

It was Li who survived.

She was covered in blood, her hair was disheveled, and she clutched a blood-stained jade hairpin tightly in her hand.

Beside him, Yang Litie fell backward to the ground.

His face and neck were covered with countless bloody holes, making it almost impossible to recognize him.

The woman sat slumped in a pool of blood, crying and laughing as if she were insane.

Boom——

A pale white flash of lightning streaked across the rainy night, illuminating the horrific scene inside the hall.

As the lightning disappeared, the woman suddenly came to her senses and found that Jiang Mu had already stood up and was walking towards her.

Li trembled in fright, took a step back, her eyes filled with pity and hope, and said urgently, "Master Mu...you...you said someone could live..."

She pulled open her blouse, revealing her jade-white front:
“From this day forward… I am your person… no, I am your dog… the most obedient dog…”

The woman tried to force a seductive smile.

"Yes, I always keep my word."

Jiang Mu walked up behind her, his voice gentle.

He gently stroked the woman's cheek from behind with one hand, his fingertips caressing her softly, as if soothing a frightened pet. "There will definitely be someone who survives here."

Feeling the warmth of the man's fingertips, Li's tense nerves relaxed considerably, and her emotions gradually calmed down.

"The problem is..."

Jiang Mu leaned down, his lips almost touching her ear, his voice soft and low, "Now, there are still two people alive here. So, guess... who is the one who is alive?"

Li was stunned.

She then realized with a start that the other person's phrase "living a person" included himself!
Click!
The woman's neck was broken.

The fawning smile and hope that had just appeared on her face froze completely, turning into a deathly silence.

Beauty fades, but stupidity is eternal.

Jiang Mu abandoned the woman's corpse, stared at the other bodies in the hall, and muttered, "Why am I suddenly feeling a little excited? Could I be a serial killer?"

-

With the help of the Eastern Emperor's Primordial Bell, Jiang Mu quietly returned to his cell.

I deliberately avoided the rain the whole way, so my clothes weren't too wet.

However, the backlash from overusing the bell was now like a belated tide, piling up wave after wave and erupting within his body.

Jiang Mu felt like he was going to die.

His muscles felt like they were being sliced ​​inch by inch by a sharp fishing net, his bones seemed to be shattered bit by bit, and his blood seemed to be being frantically bitten and sucked by mosquitoes...

"It's a pity we don't have the energy to deal with the body anymore, so let's just leave it there."

The excruciating pain felt like a thousand ants gnawing at his heart. Jiang Mu could only bite the bell in his mouth and endure the torment with sheer willpower.

"My darling, so tender and alluring, the flickering candlelight casts a red glow. His starry eyes are slightly misty, his face flushed with the fragrance of sweat. Just like the vibrant spring colors before the peony-lined railing..."

The familiar, soft, seductive voice rang out once again.

She was singing an extremely erotic and seductive song.

Strangely, upon hearing that melodious and alluring voice, Jiang Mu felt that the pain in his body seemed to lessen somewhat.

He removed the bell from his mouth, gasped for breath, and grinned through the excruciating pain:

"Thank you, cross-dressing master... sing a few more lines, and later... later I'll burn you more paper money... no, I'll burn you a big rocket... hiss—" A new wave of even more intense pain surged in, and Jiang Mu quickly bit the bell again.

Time was stretched and distorted infinitely amidst extreme pain and the ethereal, eerie sounds of opera.

Jiang Mu's consciousness gradually faded.

I felt like I had become a withered leaf, swaying precariously in the gale, with a boiling cauldron of lava below me.

Until he completely lost consciousness.

Shortly after his consciousness sank into darkness, a blurry shadow slowly emerged on the damp stone wall of the cell, like ink spreading on paper.

The shadow gradually solidified, eventually transforming into a graceful and beautiful human figure.

It turned out to be a woman.

The woman was dressed in a light blue opera costume; her figure was graceful, and her appearance was both alluring and enchanting, almost unreal.

She was enveloped in a faint blue halo, as if she were a spirit that had stepped out of an ancient painting.

"Young man, you are truly handsome..."

The woman floated to Jiang Mu's side, leaned down to examine his brows and eyes, which were still slightly furrowed in pain even in his unconscious state. Her voice was so soft and charming that it could drip water, like a lingering warm breeze on a spring night.

"You have such a sweet tongue, I really like you very much."

She extended her slender, jade-like fingertips and lightly tapped the man's high, straight nose with a tender and affectionate gesture.

"If only I could stay here and stay with my sister forever..."

This also saves my sister from having to take on so many roles every day, singing, reciting, acting, and fighting by herself; it's quite lonely.

The woman felt a little regretful.

After escaping from Chongtian Temple, he was trapped in this gloomy place.

Although the fat guy last time could hear her voice, he was an idiot and far less interesting than this little Junsheng.

"Huh? What is this?"

The woman in green was suddenly drawn to the copper bell in Jiang Mu's mouth. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with curiosity, and she subconsciously reached out her hand to touch it.

The moment her delicate fingertips touched the bell, it suddenly flew up and hovered in mid-air.

"Jingle Bell--"

The bell rang without wind, producing a clear and melodious sound.

"Hehe...that's quite fun."

The female ghost in green had bright, sparkling eyes and found it all very novel.

The next instant, a sudden change occurred.

The illusory images of bells spread out from the copper bell itself, quickly expanding and growing larger until it transformed into a huge golden bell image resembling an ancient temple bell.

Countless mysterious runes flowed across the bell, radiating brilliant golden light!
"This is……"

The woman in green looked surprised and doubtful.

Before she could react, a terrifying suction force suddenly emanated from within the golden bell shadow, as if an invisible giant hand was gripping her soul and trying to drag her in.

"not good!"

The woman in green turned pale, and her body swelled with yin energy as she tried to break free from the suction force.

However, it was too late.

The phantom of the bell, transformed into a giant bell, descended upon us with an overwhelming aura that could suppress everything!
Completely captivated her!

Immediately afterwards, the bell rapidly shrank, returning to the shape of an ordinary bell, and landed back in Jiang Mu's palm.

The brilliance was restrained, as if nothing had ever happened.

Ding!
A female ghost in green was successfully captured.

If Jiang Mu were awake at this moment, he would definitely recognize that the spell that Donghuang Taichu Bell had just cast on its own was one of its core abilities, [Hidden Soul].

What is meant by "hidden soul"?

It can contain Mount Sumeru within a mustard seed, and gather the souls of the nine netherworlds. The souls of heaven and earth are all contained within it!
