The gentle madam glided over, exuding allure. She picked up the wine pot from the table and poured him a cup. "Have a drink first," she said.
She offered the cup to Xing Chenzi, but he flicked his hand, sending it crashing to the floor. The wine permeated the entire hall.
Ming Xuan Shuang chided, "Xing Chenzi, how dare you! Madam was offering you a drink in good faith, what is the meaning of this?!"
Xing Chenzi snorted, "You offered me poisoned wine. Do you think I'm senile?"
The two chuckled. The gentle madam praised, "Remarkable. As expected of Xing Chenzi, the master of Seven Xuan, to see through the poison in the wine at a glance."
Suddenly, Xing Chenzi's footing faltered, and he began to sway precariously…
Xing Chenzi, already suspicious, now grew more certain. "It is indeed you, Ming Xuan Shuang. How dare you collude with the gentle madam to deceive this venerable one! Furthermore, I recently received intel that you two have been in a secret affair, engaging in unspeakable acts. I shall report this to the Lord of the Dong Qian Xun Yang Sect."
Ming Xuan Shuang coldly retorted, "One can eat anything, but one cannot speak carelessly."
His vision began to blur. Xing Chenzi shook his head.
"What's wrong?" the gentle madam inquired, feigning concern.
Xing Chenzi's head swam. "No, I didn't drink it, nor did I touch the vessels. Why is this happening?"
He hadn't drunk the poisoned wine, but the vapors had spread. Coupled with the gentle madam's scent, it was her renowned technique, Myriad God's Bewilderment! Those affected would have their cultivation halved!
Xing Chenzi suddenly had a realization. "Could it be…"
"Phhht!"
Ming Xuan Shuang plunged a long dagger straight into his heart, the hilt protruding.
"You!" Xing Chenzi reacted, intending to unleash a palm strike imbued with immortal spiritual energy. Ming Xuan Shuang twisted the dagger, and the excruciating pain forced Xing Chenzi to cough up blood!
Ming Xuan Shuang pulled out the dagger, tearing out the heart and sinews with it! He kicked Xing Chenzi's body away. He was undeniably dead.
The gentle madam instinctively covered her mouth. "You are terrifying."
Ming Xuan Shuang casually tossed the weapon from his shoulder behind him. Famished, he approached the gentle madam, his blood-stained hands encircling her alluring waist. "Terrifying, or lovely?"
The gentle madam traced his robust chest with her fingertips. "Mmm… you're so wicked, you've gotten blood all over me."
Ming Xuan Shuang kissed her fiercely. They entwined, with a resounding "smack." The gentle madam, far from being angry, delighted. "Don't."
Ming Xuan Shuang lifted her directly. "This venerable one wishes to engage in a thousand rounds with Wan'er!"
Soon, the entire First Xuan Hall was filled with the sounds of revelry, of passionate union…
They had long since dismissed all disciples, leaving no witnesses. This was all to frame Ming Zhi Tian in a way that would seem logical.
The two continued their game of 'Dou Dizhu,' playing rockets, four kings, flipping the heavens and inverting the clouds…
…
"Chen'er… wait for me, I'm coming to save you at once!"
Ming Zhi Tian instantly appeared in the Myriad Universe Divine Light. Even though countless corpses lay scattered, and all their energies had been absorbed by the Myriad Universe Divine Light to return to the Origin of All Things and form stellar power, he activated his Immortal Eye, intending to search endlessly for that Heavenly God Realm corpse.
After searching for a long time… without success.
In this Myriad Universe Divine Light, which was tens of millions of times vaster than the Xiugu Realm, it was like searching for a needle in a divine ocean. It was no wonder, otherwise, how could the Myriad Universe Divine Light be so vast as to connect to the primordial space of all realms?
Ming Zhi Tian unleashed all his divine sense, and also dispatched ten Diamond Blood Demons to search. All returned without success.
"Drip…"
Ming Zhi Tian shed a tear of diamond, despair creeping in. "Why? Why am I, Ming Zhi Tian, still so powerless? I can't even protect the only one I love. Why?!"
