The Game with Fairies - Chapter 374

Chapter 374: We’ll do anything you ask!

“Run! Run, Li Muyang!”

“We’ll take you to find the remains of the immortals! Right away!”

“Run!”

Seeing Li Muyang standing still in such a critical moment of being chased,

And the group of wandering immortals closing in to within a hundred zhang behind him, the two little girls screamed in horror and fear.

They even began to plead.

“As long as you lead us away! We’ll do anything you ask!”

“We will definitely take you to find the remains of the immortals, no more slacking off!”

“Li Muyang, please, just run!”

The two little girls were so anxious they were nearly crying, their voices filled with sobs as they pleaded urgently.

Only then did Li Muyang suddenly accelerate, fleeing into the distance.

“This is what you said, anything goes.”

After Li Muyang sped up, he immediately left the group of wandering immortals behind.

But he still didn’t break away completely.

Instead, he said, “The remains of the immortals, take me to them now.”

“Also, if you can’t tell me the complete method to kill wandering immortals, I won’t force you.”

“But the curse of resentment from the wandering immortals, how to remove it… you can at least tell me that, right?”

Both Dragon Maiden and Li Muyang himself must have been cursed.

When Li Muyang asked for the method to remove the curse, the two little girls hesitated only briefly before readily revealing the method.

The two little girls took turns explaining, detailing the method to remove the curse.

Li Muyang silently took note of it in his heart and sped up once more.

As he fully unleashed his speed, the group of wandering immortals was quickly left out of sight.

A quarter of an hour later, Li Muyang easily shook off all the wandering immortals, leading the two little girls out of danger.

Once he was sure it was safe, Li Muyang immediately stopped and said to the shadows.

“Can you two properly lead the way now?”

Two little girls rose up out of the shadows.

They pouted unhappily, clearly still wanting to play.

But faced with Li Muyang’s compelling gaze, the two little girls didn’t dare to object.

“Let’s go, we’ll take you there.”

“I’ve seen those who want to survive, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone who wants to court death…”

The two little girls grumbled under their breath, holding hands and running through the forest.

But this time, their manner of running was somewhat strange.

Holding hands, they jumped with peculiar steps through the forest.

The ground where their delicate toes touched seemed to ripple, spreading out in circles.

But upon closer inspection, the ground was still just ground, without any ripples.

The two little girls continued to jump and run in circles through the forest.

Soon, they seemed to sense something and said to Li Muyang.

“Come with us, quickly.”

Saying this, the two little girls continued holding hands, hopping and running towards the northwest.

Li Muyang instinctively followed behind them but noticed that the ground where the girls’ toes had passed now silently showed faint traces of blood.

These wisps of blood soaked into the soil as if blood was flowing within the earth itself.

And as the little girls hopped and jumped further away, the surroundings became darker and darker.

The wilderness was already in nightfall, but as the little girls ran ahead, Li Muyang noticed the stars in the sky gradually disappearing, and the surrounding forest suddenly turned dark.

They seemed to be walking outside of the world itself with nothing but darkness all around them except for the small path under their feet.

Dragon Maiden sensed something strange and was shocked.

“…Are we walking within the earth’s veins?”

The strong aura of the earth’s veins surged in the darkness.

They had silently made their way underground, moving along the veins of the earth.

It was Li Muyang’s first time traveling through the earth’s veins, so he didn’t dare to wander off and obediently followed behind the two little girls.

The earth’s veins connect heaven and earth, and ordinary escape techniques cannot enter, for they possess the unpredictable and formidable power of gods and ghosts.

It is said that in ancient times, there was a technique to shrink the land to an inch, moving through the earth’s veins and using their power to travel, where one step could span a thousand li.

But in today’s cultivation world, let alone such legendary immortal techniques, even the earth’s veins are a mystery to cultivators and difficult to access.

Li Muyang followed the two little girls, weaving through the earth’s veins.

These veins connected mountains and lakes, forming the network of the earth and the confluence of spiritual energy.

One wrong step could land you thousands of miles away, truly bizarre and inexplicable.

Li Muyang followed the little girls closely, not daring to relax in the slightest.

After an unknown amount of time in the darkness, which felt like one or two hours but could have been just a few minutes, the sense of time inside the earth’s veins was extremely chaotic.

But the two little girls ahead stopped.

They stood at a junction of the earth’s veins, turned around, and in unison, said to Li Muyang, “The remains of the immortal are here.”

“Go in.”

“We’re going home.”

The two little girls had come down the mountain specifically to lead the way, and now that their task was complete, they were returning to the Mother Buddha Temple.

They glared unhappily at Li Muyang, then turned and left.

But after a few steps, the little girls seemed to hesitate.

They turned back and asked Li Muyang,

“…Do you know our sister?”

“What kind of person is she when she’s not with our mother?”

The question from the two little girls made Li Muyang hesitate.

Chu Qingxue, huh…

That was a difficult question to answer. But it seemed the little girls didn’t really want to know. Seeing Li Muyang’s troubled expression, they quickly shook their heads and said,

“Never mind, don’t tell us.”

“Mother is right, the less you know, the happier you’ll live.”

“We’re going back, so be careful.”

The two little girls, who had been hostile towards Li Muyang all along, now seemed somewhat reluctant to leave as they waved goodbye.

“Be careful, don’t die…”

“Also, goodbye, Sister Dragon Goddess.”

“Goodbye, Sister Dragon Goddess.”

The two little girls waved and disappeared into the darkness of the earth’s veins.

Li Muyang watched them leave, his feelings towards the little girls now complex.

For some reason, he no longer found them so annoying and even felt a bit of pity for them.

But looking ahead at the junction of the earth’s veins, Li Muyang could only sigh—now was not the time to worry about the kids.

The remains of the immortal were right in front of him, and the final stage of this phase was about to be unlocked.

Li Muyang took a deep breath and stepped directly into the junction of the earth’s veins.

In an instant, the darkness receded like a tide around him.

When he stood on solid ground again, he saw a very strange scene—a peach grove with countless pale petals floating around and many pale-faced, lifeless people standing motionless.

In the center of the grove, under a withered peach tree, lay a still body.

The chest of the corpse was opened, and the heart, liver, kidneys, intestines, and stomach had vanished, a tragic death, yet her face bore a strange smile.

As Li Muyang entered the peach grove, in an instant, the numerous shadows standing in the grove seemed to come to life, and countless dead eyes turned to look at him.

At that moment, Li Muyang felt as if he was engulfed by numerous evil spirits.

The chilling, bone-piercing aura of death made him pause in his breath.

A system prompt appeared in his field of vision.
