My Card Girl Infinite Evolution - Chapter 124

Chapter 124: Lightning Strikes Twice

“Wah wah, I won’t dare do it again. It’s all Xiao Mo’s fault for encouraging me to go up and look. Mother, who is as beautiful as to make fish sink and geese fall, to eclipse the moon and put flowers to shame, the most beautiful in the world, can you let me down?”

At this moment, Xiao Xue was hung on a tree by Bai Moxue’s red sleeve.

Then she was severely whipped, once again braising pork with rattan, almost burning it.

Luo Sheng was brewing hot tea on the stone table.

He and Xiao Mo were gleefully watching Bai Moxue stir-fry Xiao Xue, as if monks were striking bells.

“Xiao Mo, you villain!”

Seeing this scene, Xiao Xue gnashed her teeth, almost biting through her own clothes, wishing she could go up and tear Xiao Mo to pieces.

Xiao Mo stuck out his tongue, making a mischievous face, clearly having just completed a great revenge, and was in the moment of enjoying his rival’s suffering.

There was nothing more enjoyable in the world than this.

“You… hmph!”

Seeing Xiao Mo’s self-satisfied expression, Xiao Xue was instantly filled with rage.

“Still being stubborn, huh?”

Bai Moxue rolled up her sleeves again, switching to an even thicker and longer rattan, planning to physically purify Xiao Xue’s unhealthy thoughts.

“I really was wrong… wah wah…” Xiao Xue once again put on a sorrowful and melancholic appearance, looking pitiful and miserable, and looked towards Luo Sheng.

As if saying, quickly control your wife, I’m about to be beaten to a pulp by her.

Luo Sheng pretended not to see anything, and brewed a pot of piping hot tea for Xiao Mo. The two of them leisurely enjoyed watching the rattan-braised pork.

…

After Bai Moxue came out of seclusion.

Her goal became clear, to continuously strengthen her own power, and ultimately have a fight to the death with the Ghost King.

And the best way to increase her power was to eliminate the ghosts coming out of the Demon Suppression Tower, gaining merit power.

While exorcising demons and upholding justice, she would accumulate a large amount of incense to obtain divine status in preparation for future confrontation with the Ghost King.

And she planned to behead the Ghost King’s chief generals.

Luo Sheng expressed approval of her plan.

He said to Bai Moxue, “If you encounter danger, I will step in.”

Except for Dongfang Muqing who had no combat power, Luo Sheng almost took care of everything for her. As for the other card girls, Luo Sheng let them develop on their own.

Too much interference would only affect the strengthening effect of the cards. It was better to let things take their course, and there might be unexpected gains.

“Mm, to become your wife, I also need to work hard to show my strength,” Bai Moxue smiled, like a bud about to bloom.

In her view, Luo Sheng was powerful and mysterious. Now he was just playing house with her. To be worthy of him, she must become a formidable character.

Bai Moxue pecked him on the cheek again.

Over the next 5 days, she eliminated evil ghosts within several dozen kilometers of the small town, gaining a large amount of merit.

Merit not only could increase strength and condense divine status, but also continuously enhance her defense, which could be called divine protection.

This divine protection was very similar to the 【Angel’s Protection】 in Luo Sheng’s hand.

It similarly increased defense and dodge chance, and could slowly recover health during battle.

As Bai Moxue frequently eliminated evil ghosts, her reputation among the local people grew increasingly high. Her temple also gradually expanded from the original small shrine to the scale of a Taoist temple.

People coming to burn incense and worship were in an endless stream.

Even the statue of 【Pig-headed General】 was carved and enshrined.

The townspeople eloquently explained to outsiders.

“Our Shuangyu Town is protected by immortals. Look at the state of the world, it’s not peaceful outside, only our small town is safe and sound.”

“That’s right, look at how many people have moved to our small town, just to pray for peace. I dare say within a hundred kilometers, there’s no place safer than our Shuangyu Town.”

“It’s all thanks to the immortals in the temple protecting us. If you want to pray for peace, go burn some incense quickly!”

The common people were almost spontaneous.

From one telling ten and ten telling a hundred, Bai Moxue’s reputation as a guardian deity spread like this.

Originally, the small town lost several hundred people in that disaster, but now, because evil ghosts frequently appeared in the mortal world.

Surrounding commoners fled to Shuangyu Town in droves, instead making the small town unprecedentedly prosperous, with the population also surging by 2,000 to 3,000 people.

Even the families of government officials fled here as refugees, just to seek protection.

Many merchants offered high prices to buy land near Bai Moxue’s residence, just to obtain safer protection.

Now, Luo Sheng hardly dared to open the door.

Once he opened the door, he could see the street full of vegetables, fruits, and eggs. Some people even set out grand offerings of five animals, clearly becoming a vegetable market, making him very speechless.

But Xiao Xue and Xiao Mo were very excited.

“Mmm, I want to eat this chicken,” Xiao Xue picked up a roasted chicken and ate with oil dripping from her mouth.

After eating all the best chicken legs and wings, she quietly plucked off a chicken bottom and stuffed it directly into Xiao Mo’s mouth.

And solemnly said, “This is the essence of the chicken, the most delicious part of the chicken!”

“What part is that?”

Xiao Mo asked ignorantly, but found it crispy and delicious, chewing vigorously, then swallowed it.

Xiao Xue, young but cunning, explained to him, “The place where the chicken poops.”

“Peh~ peh peh!” Xiao Mo immediately started to retch, but unfortunately he had already eaten it.

A few more days passed.

Bai Moxue returned home and discussed with Luo Sheng, “I plan to cut off the Ghost King’s arm, first eliminating the evil Taoist and the spider spirit. They have killed many cultivators, including my clansmen.”

Luo Sheng nodded, “I’ll go with you, to keep an eye on things.”

The two made some preparations.

Afterwards they came to a mortal city in the northern part of Fengdu Ghost City.

The city was desolate and chaotic. Two or three evil ghosts could be seen patrolling the streets, eating people on sight. The ground was full of corpse fragments. This city was like a human purgatory.

The evil Taoist priest collecting incense here didn’t care about the life and death of the common people at all.

If someone burned a lot of incense for him and set out grand offerings of five elements, he would protect them, taking advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune from incense money.

As for the poor people who couldn’t afford to burn incense, he almost didn’t care, letting others fend for themselves.

“Shameless and despicable evil Taoist, having received so much incense from the common people before, yet doing nothing,” Bai Moxue was full of anger seeing this scene. She had once been a member of a cultivator family.

Now having obtained the Netherworld secret method of the Heaven Purifying Divine Incantation.

Exorcising demons and upholding justice had become one of her sacred missions, so naturally she couldn’t stand everything the evil Taoist was doing.

Luo Sheng said to her, “I’ll handle the evil ghosts in the city. You go eliminate the evil Taoist and destroy his temple.”

“Mm mm, your wife will be back soon.”

After Bai Moxue said this, she hurriedly went to kill. Then intense fighting broke out in the city center, with flames shooting into the sky.

After she left, Luo Sheng immediately summoned 【Fire Witch – Acoley】. With a flash of light from the card, a magic girl stood with him on the roof.

Seeing the hateful evil ghosts.

Acoley used Flame Storm without a word. A huge fiery dragon whirlwind directly incinerated the evil ghosts.

After all, the undead fear fire the most, especially the strengthened Flame Storm, which could cause fatal damage to them.

“Ah!!!”

An evil ghost let out a piercing scream.

Finally dissipating into the world, a large amount of merit suddenly poured onto Acoley, discovering she wasn’t the main body.

It could only fly onto Luo Sheng, still unable to merge into his body. Finally gathering in his card box, becoming a milky white halo.

Evil ghosts disappeared one after another.

Many surviving commoners walked onto the streets, finding those terrifying evil ghosts had almost disappeared, leaving only puddles of black sticky liquid.

Some people hiding behind houses witnessed the process of Luo Sheng eliminating evil ghosts. Then they came out and knelt down kowtowing: “The immortals have finally come to save us!”

“Wah wah~ Heaven finally shows mercy.”

The common people wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves, because a month ago after evil ghosts entered the city, they began to devour people indiscriminately. At least half the people in the city had disappeared.

Luo Sheng looked down at the continuously kowtowing and thanking commoners, and said, “You should no longer worship the temple in the city. The statues inside are not gods at all, but one of the culprits of this disaster, subordinates of the Ghost King.

The former gods have already passed away. Now your burning incense for them will only aid the evil and abet the wicked.”

The commoners on the street.

Hearing this, they were all stunned, revealing expressions of disbelief, fear, panic and confusion.
