Chapter 1305: Struggle Between the Tiger and the Dragon

Su Mirao swivelled her jade-green fox eyes and thought, The lord of the kingdom is from the Tushan clan. She’s familiar with the heavenly secrets and most skilled in divination, so she’s probably calculated this already. Even more despicably, not only has she become a concubine for someone else, but she’s even abused my ignorance given my young age to make me suffer here. Even if Li Qingshan manages to overcome all the hardships in his path to beyond the Nine Heavens, how will it benefit me even if he really becomes an immortal or a sage? If I’m careless, I might even be dragged to my potential doom, dying in the process.

If others were in a predicament like that, perhaps they would be devastated. They might downright accept their fate, but she was not that submissive in nature. Otherwise, she would not have set up this ambush either.

She gritted her teeth. Hmph, since you want to feign your generosity, forcing me to be with him, then you better not blame me for taking advantage of his young age. It’s not my fault if your plan gets ruined!

As a result, she continued with her innate ability, unleashing her charms. Nine bushy tails extended out from under her dress, spreading out behind her like a throne, yet also like a peacock displaying its feathers. Spiritual qi surged towards her, gathering until it became visible light. It was as if even the world had fallen in love with her.

As for the others in the hall, they went without saying. The religious preceptor of the right was a practitioner of daoism. Even to this day, he maintained the body of a child. The strength of his disposition was as clear as day, yet even he was dazzled right now, completely enthralled by her. He completely cast aside the daoist concepts of tranquillity and being at ease. Suddenly, he felt like even dying on the spot was worth it if she could just look at him properly.

Si Long had been severely affected by her in the first place. As he gazed at her current form, he thought in a daze, Mirao isn’t actually trying to marry Li Qingshan. Instead, she’s trying to deal with him, but she’s made me suffer instead. Sigh, does she really think that I wouldn’t help her if she told me sooner?

With that, he instead calmed down inside. His cultivation deviation was not as severe anymore.

On the other hand, when Li Qingshan heard her say “my dear husband”, he felt like he had just drunk fine alcohol. His heart rippled, and the bit of clarity he had recently recovered became blurred again. He tried everything he could to maintain a wisp of clearness in his head. This was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a powerful bewitching technique. When he had been bound by the red thread of lovesickness in the past, it only made him a little more attached. It was nowhere near enough to influence his mind like this.

No matter how wondrous Haitang’s Heart Dyeing Art of Rouge is, it’s still a Golden Core cultivation method after all. This daemon fox’s strength has definitely surpassed Daemon King, or even nine-tailed foxes would not be this powerful. I am in possession of five powerful bloodlines after all.

It probably wasn’t all lies when she said she specially waited here to receive me, so I can’t just turn against her. Hmm? How can I think like that? Don’t tell me I’ve also been bewitched? Otherwise, why would I be unable to muster any killing intent at all after falling for such a deadly scheme by her? If I can’t deal with this as quickly as possible, I might fall for her charms again.

As a result, he made up his mind. He forced the venom in his body into his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, as well as his skin. He blinded his eyes, deafened his ears, and completely sealed off his five senses. Only then did his mind settle slightly.

“Fellow Su, since Si Long is not your partner, then we have no grievances, so don’t force me to do this! I’ll count to three. If you still don’t release her, I’ll…”

Su Mirao trapped the butterfly between her fingers and smiled. “Counting again? You sure are a one-trick pony. I don’t believe you can bring yourself to harm me. Why don’t we just finish off the wedding? I’ll do whatever you want me to do afterwards.”

Even if she did not have a hostage, she did not believe Li Qingshan could attack her. If her bewitchment could be countered just by sealing off the five senses and steeling one’s nerves, the foxes of Yousu would have vanished from the world a long time ago.

Apart from being disastrous beauties, there was another reason why the Yousu clan possessed such an infamous reputation; they could get away with any misdeeds just because they were adorable.

“One!”

Li Qingshan was blind and deaf, but her voice and smile had left a clear impression in his heart. He clenched his fist and took a step forward.

“Dear, are you really so afraid of seeing me?” Su Mirao smiled sweetly and approached him with gentle steps.

“Two!”

Li Qingshan raised his fist viciously, except he felt like he was soaking in warm water. His entire body felt soft, even unable to muster his daemon qi, let alone unleash any innate abilities. They had yet to formally clash, but the dangers he faced were no less than any of the powerful opponents he had encountered in the past.

“Oh my. Hit me then. C’mon, beat me to death. Let’s see who’ll still want to be your wife.”

Su Mirao raised her chest and grumbled, like a young lady throwing a tantrum. A smooth and fluffy fox tail silently wrapped around Li Qingshan’s waist.

Seeing this, Si Long’s inner demons flared up again. He was tempted to skin Li Qingshan alive, yet he dared not move without permission, just in case he displeased her.

“Three!”

Li Qingshan spat out the final number and punched out.

Su Mirao continued to smile as she watched the punch pass by right in front of her before suddenly becoming stunned.

Li Qingshan’s arm lengthened abruptly, planting a punch in Si Long’s face.

Si Long was in a daze, so how could he respond? His face caved in violently, and his entire head dissipated.

Li Qingshan grinned. “My dear wife, let’s get married once I butcher this cuckolded emperor!”

“You!” Su Mirao gritted her teeth. Bewitched by her, Li Qingshan could not attack her, but he could attack everyone else.

Immediately, a furious dragon’s cry reverberated through the Jade palace. Si Long’s headless body rapidly shrank, exposing a jade seal with a golden dragon coiled around it. He turned into a five-clawed golden dragon and lunged towards Li Qingshan, coiling around him firmly and ripping away viciously.

He unleashed all of his hatred at that moment, leaving Li Qingshan bloodied with cut flesh.

“Perfect timing!”

Li Qingshan let out a great roar and turned into a vicious tiger, biting back at his neck. His tiger claws were like knives, producing deep gashes on the golden dragon’s back.

Li Qingshan’s figure swelled up violently, standing like a mountain. His scarlet hair stood on end as he radiated with malice.

The golden dragon began to expand as well, flowing like a river. His golden scales glistened as his horns stood gloriously.

Rumble!

Two colossal beings engaged in a battle in the most primitive way possible. The pillars snapped and the walls collapsed, reducing the Jade palace to ruins. The entire palace was brought to the ground.

The tiger’s roars shook the earth. The dragon’s cries startled the sky.

The tiger roars and dragon cries filled the surroundings, making the expressions of the female Daemon Kings and great cultivators change drastically. As if they had just woken up from a dream, they scattered and dodged.

The fierce struggle turned this land of warmth and happiness into a battlefield. Cracks appeared in the space there.

As it turned out, the Jade palace was like the secret tombs of the Five Absolutes Immortal, constructed in a separate zone opened up in space. Normally, it was only present as an illusion, which was why Xiao An found nothing.

However, the power they possessed had passed the limit that the nine provinces could withstand a long time ago, let alone this measly zone. Signs of collapse immediately appeared.

Su Mirao’s expression changed several times. She understood that he wanted to use this battle to agitate his battle spirit so that he could resist her bewitchment. There were great horrors in life, but there was also great courage and great determination.

“Both of you, stop! Si Long, you’ve destroyed my Jade palace. I’m going to get angry. Li Qingshan, if you don’t stop, I’ll kill this mad butterfly.” Then she lifted up Xuanyue. “And this cat!”

The struggle between the tiger and the dragon paused.

At this moment, a twisted streak of light ripped open the space there. Xiao An appeared with Immortal Relinquished in her left hand and Buddha Slaying in her right, thrusting the Buddha Slaying sword mercilessly towards Su Mirao’s chest.
