Chapter 206: Fallen Angel
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Please help . I beg you...” The girl’s cry for help kept ringing in his ears. It was like chasing after a ghost. It was strange. Xiao You couldn’t hear it, but Li Xianyu could.
There was a sense of... being chosen by the devil.
This sounds inexplicably familiar. Is the next sentence: the sleeping beast in the body awakens? Li Xianyu thought to himself. He calmly lit a cigarette and ignored the cry for help in his ear. It was like how the adults frightened him when he was a child: “If you hear soone calling your na in the middle of the night, you must not turn back and respond.”
Li Xianyu responded only when he was stupid. He had a premonition. The thing that asked him for help was the real horror of the hospital.
“Help , help ...” The girl’s cry for help sounded from afar sotis, and near the ear sotis. She was very stubborn. If Li Xianyu did not respond, she kept on shouting.
Li Xianyu had underestimated her. Gradually, his body began to lose control; there was a rush of pity and “help ” thoughts in his mind.
Girl... No, it was not necessarily a girl, or even a person. There seed to be a kind of magic in its voice, which was irresistible.
“Help .”
“Help .”
“Please help ...”
Li Xianyu couldn’t help it anymore. He said angrily, “No, go away.”
The cry for help stopped.
A mont later, the girl said angrily, “n are not good things.”
“It’s none of your business whether I’m good or not.” As Li Xianyu finished his retort, a cold feeling covered his whole body. He got up and went down the stairs, not in control of his body.
Xiao You imdiately got up, patted her butt and held his arm.
“Don’t follow , you stay here,” Li Xianyu said in a deep voice.
“I dare not,” Xiao You replied pitifully.
He didn’t know where he was going or how terrible was the thing that he was going to face. He only knew that if this timid little sister followed him, she would probably not make it out of there alive.
“It’s safer for you to stay here. To tell you the truth, there is no ghost in the hospital. Everything is an illusion. An illusion that doesn’t exist.” Li Xianyu frowned.
“I don’t want to...” She shook her head hard and her hair was flying about. Seeing that Li Xianyu was going to abandon her, she cried in fear, “I promise to give you anything, really, as long as you don’t leave behind.”
As an ordinary person, the reason why she didn’t break down was that she had Li Xianyu by her side. His calmness and composure gave Xiao You a lot of courage.
If he wasn’t there, Xiao You couldn’t imagine what it would be like to face the ghosts alone.
“Okay, I’ll help you, but you promise one thing. Don’t hurt the girl beside . I need to deal with it. You temporarily restore my mobility,” Li Xianyu said loudly.
There was no response, which was a given. The other party successfully controlled his body and of course, ignored his request.
“Who are you talking to again?” Xiao You was extrely afraid. She looked like a little wild cat who had stolen food.
Li Xianyu pondered for a few seconds and said, “Hmph, won are really liars.”
“You are the liar.” There was actually a response. “Promise?” it asked again.
“I stand by my words,” Li Xianyu answered with a serious expression.
The chill in the body quickly subsided and his limbs regained their autonomy.
Li Xianyu imdiately waved his hand to knock Xiao You out, letting her fall to the ground. He ignored her and took out his knife and shield-shaped scale from the wallet at the fastest speed.
Pfft, pfft... The scalpel and shield cut into the knee, smashed the kneecap and got stuck in the flesh.
“Small sample, fight with .” Li Xianyu sat on the ground, laughing.
The scalpel and scale were embedded in his flesh, as his tissue cells healed themselves. He was now crippled. It was good. The other party hiding in the dark could no longer control him.
The other side had been using magic, but didn’t really hurt them. The other side had contacted him for help just now. Li Xianyu speculated that the other party had been restricted to so extent and could not escape. Now, his knee cap was broken. He couldn’t walk. It couldn’t co out. Everyone scolded each other across the iron gate. After scolding, they went ho to eat.
I’m so fucking wise. Just as he finished laughing, the cold feeling ca again. His body was out of control again. He crawled downstairs, on and on...
His legs were gone, but there were still his hands. Before the cold feeling engulfed him, Li Xianyu only had ti to take off his gloves. In the dark corridor, Li Xianyu climbed in a determined manner, and he left behind bloody traces on the stairs.
If ordinary people were to see this scene, they would die from a heart attack on the spot.
I’m afraid this person is not a retard, Li Xianyu thought to himself.
He could have walked down in a glorious manner. However, he was now resigned to crawling down.
“Well, let’s talk. Can I pull out the knife first? It’s killing .” Li Xianyu grimaced. The knife and scales were tearing the wound apart as he crawled, and the pain was endless.
The steps were wide as well. His manhood suffered imnsely, as there was a burning pain.
This ti, there was no response at all. Li Xianyu climbed down painfully. The pain in his manhood was bearable, but it slowly beca unbearable. It was the sa for the wound around his knee. Blood flowed all over the place.
Ten minutes later, he finally crawled down the long corridor. A door appeared in front of him. The rotten iron door collapsed under the great force of his palm, making a loud noise and sending dust flying everywhere.
After inhaling a large amount of dust, Li Xianyu’s spiritual eye suddenly opened. It was not him opening it. It was a sign of an aggrieved spirit in the room.
With the eye open, his vision was greatly improved. The darkness in front of him was broken. The room was very large, and there were no sundries or furniture in it. Complex incantations were carved into the ground, extending from the doorway to the center of the room.
In the center stood a cross two humans high. A naked woman was tied to it. She was bloodstained, her head was bowed and her dirty hair covered her face.
Li Xianyu stopped at the door for a mont, then climbed into the room. When he entered the room, a strange scene happened.
Blood flowing from both legs activated the incantations engraved into the ground. One by one, the runes lit up. The floor of the whole room was engraved with runes. When they lit up, it was like the blood light had illuminated the room.
Li Xianyu slowly crawled to the woman, until he was at her feet. The woman raised her face, and pleaded with tearful eyes. “Please, help .”
Seeing the woman’s face, Li Xianyu’s brain acted as if it had been shocked by lightning. “Sister Taisu?!”
She had a beautiful face which was indescribable. It was beautiful but not demonic, gorgeous but not vulgar. It reminded people of a white and blooming lotus, which was graceful and free from dust.
“No, you are not Sister Taisu.” Li Xianyu realized.
“Help . Please help .” The woman’s face turned into Ice Shards. She appeared proud, cold and fierce, with an aggressive look in her eyes.
“What’s wrong with you? You have to transform into my sister.” Ice Shards’s face resembled a shining badge. This made Li Xianyu think more clearly.
When he looked at the woman again, he could see her original appearance. Her face was haggard and ragged, and her lips were dry. He could see from her facial features that she was originally a great beauty.
“Who are you? Why are you imprisoned here?” Li Xianyu asked.
“I’m a poor soul who has been suppressed in a very dark and sinister place. Since the hospital was built, I’ve been locked here,” the woman said.
“Who locked you here?”
“My na is Hua Yang, disciple of Liuyun Temple. You may not know . I’ve been trapped here for a long ti, so long that I can’t rember the ti. However, your elders should have heard of .”
“Elder Ziyun of Liuyun Temple is my teacher. I have an elder sister nad Hua Yu. She entered the temple three years earlier than . She is the eldest sister and the lineage of my teacher. She was the internal choice to be the temple leader. However, when I joined the school, she even said that she wanted to pass on the position of the temple leader to because of my innate talent. When Sister Hua Yu heard the news, she also ca to congratulate . She always treated very well and was very polite to her peers in the temple. It’s funny that I was naive and ignorant. I didn’t think she would hurt at that ti.”
“In 1984, I went out to hone my skills with her. Not long after that, when I heard that there were foreign demon descendants making trouble Fuzhou, I went with her to eliminate the evil forces. Who would have thought it was a trap specially set for . I fell into her trap, and I will never forget the look in Sister Hua Yu’s eyes at that ti. She was angry and hateful. She stepped on my face and said that she would enslave forever, with no possibility of reincarnation.”
“So that’s it? You were imprisoned here?” Li Xianyu asked.
“That’s one of the reasons,” said Hua Yang. “That group of foreigners found an extrely sinister place in China. They wanted to cultivate sothing called fallen angels. The conditions required to make fallen angels are very harsh. In addition to extrely sinister places, they needed a very rare material.”
“What material?”
Hua Yang said, “They are called holy spirits, which is what we call the Yin God. The holy spirit cannot be a spiritual awakener. It must be polished and its foundation must be nurtured step by step to reach the realm of the Yin God. That is how to get a holy spirit. The holy spirit is very rare. Amongst the whole world, only Chinese Taoism had produced a Yin God. However, those who can cultivate the spirit of Yin are all famous Taoist celebrities. I don’t know how Elder Sister got on with those foreigners. She betrayed . I happened to enter the realm of Yin and God at that ti, and my foundation was unstable. It was the best ti to deal with .”
Li Xianyu thought of the background of the abandoned hospital, which was established in 1988. It wa s a Sino-foreign joint venture. The major shareholders were foreigners. The ti and background of the hospital were aligned.
“They set up a hospital here, where people die every day. It is the place with the most airs of yin. It can cultivate a place with extre yin, so as to provide a better environnt of cultivation.”
“What about them? Why is this hospital abandoned? They don’t care about you? Why did you choose ? In the years where the hospital operated normally, during the ten years of abandonnt before I ca here, there was, perhaps, no shortage of people here.” Li Xianyu spewed out a series of questions.
“I’ve been sleeping and occasionally waking up. It was your spirit ritual that woke up,” Hua Yang said. “Initially, I just thought you guys were annoying and wanted to drive you guys away. Not long ago, a group of people ca to the hospital. I just drove them away. Later, I found that your blood was different. Your blood can weaken the seal here. Only you can co in. Before you, there was no demon descendant that would co here. The reason why the hospital is abandoned is that with the increased cultivation, I was becoming stronger. The magic perated the seals and affected the patients above. They shut down the hospital for fear of things escalating.”
“Later, I beca more and more powerful. Even the demon descendants guarding the hospital could not resist . They had to retreat from the hospital. But, I know they haven’t let go. Every once in a while, soone will co to the hospital to check on .” The woman continued pitifully, “Save . In another half a month, the land of extre yin will reach its peak and turn from Yin to Yang. The fallen angel will then be born. At that ti, the whole city will die.”
It was utterly unreasonable. I just took a simple task, yet I can still encounter a crisis that threatens the entire city. “No wonder. Elder, you have suffered. My great-grandma often taught that foreigners are demons, scumbags and villains. I feel sorry for what happened to you, but how can I help you?” Li Xianyu raised his hands laboriously and managed to touch Hua Yang’s feet with his fingertips. She was tied to the tall cross.
Li Xianyu said helplessly, “Don’t try anymore. You’re hanging too high up. I can’t reach you.”
She controlled Li Xianyu to make him climb higher, but failed.
“I need you to cut the iron chain for . The iron chain is a magic weapon. It’s indestructible. It may be a little difficult, but please.” The woman said, “After I let go of the controlling spell, you should be able to stand up after a mont of rest.”
The cold feeling slowly receded from his body. Li Xianyu moved his stiff fingers. He felt like his hands had been bubbled in ice water for a long ti; his knuckles were stiff.
He hesitated for a mont, as his fingers regained consciousness. He pulled out the scalpels and scales from his kneecap. Soon, his wound healed automatically.
“Elder, you are very lucky. My ability is self-healing.” Li Xianyu stood up and flashed a big innocent smile. “My great-grandma told that whenever I go out, I should be chivalrous and upright. My adoptive father also told to rember to do more good when I am rich.”
Li Xianyu took a deep breath, gathered his breath at the tip of his knife and shot out the short knife strongly as he exhaled. The short knife shot out and penetrated the woman’s head, embedding itself onto the cross.
“Eat shit, old hag.”
After throwing the knife out, he turned and ran.
After a few steps, the cold feeling swamped him, and he fell to the ground. A few seconds later, he got up on his own.
Psh! Li Xianyu gasped and said, “If I said I was just kidding, would you believe it?”
The woman’s head was cut open from the center of her eyebrows, and the short knife split the top half of her head in two. At this ti, she finally revealed her true appearance. She was not a living person at all, but a corpse that had been dry for more than 20 years.
The skin clung to the bone. Her hair was thin and dry as straw. Her eyeballs had rotted entirely. Her nose was gone as well. There were only two ugly black holes left.
It was like the mummy of the Egyptian king, reborn.
“You little thing. You’re too scheming for to keep you alive,” she raged angrily.
This was the second ti that she had been tricked.
“Speak for yourself? You speak mostly the truth, but you tell lies too. However, I’m smart enough to see through you.” Li Xianyu, seeing that things had reached the point of no return, decided to confront her directly.
“How did you see through ?” she asked.
“Just now, I touched you with my left hand. My left hand is a magical left hand. Cupid himself blessed it. Any woman that I touch would be happy. However, you didn’t respond at all. I suspected that you had a problem,” Li Xianyu snorted coldly.
However, I didn’t expect that you didn’t fucking die even if your brain had been split open. “Besides, didn’t you say that the whole city would perish when you were born? In this case, I will just wipe out the disaster. To hell with saving you.”
“Well, it doesn’t matter. You can’t escape today,” the woman said. In fact, she had already died. She was dead beyond redemption. A corpse, of course, could not have an orgasm.
“Your power is self-healing. Heaven is helping .”
“What do you want to do?”
“The pure blood, full of yang, is just what I need now. In another half a month, when extre yin turns into yang and success is achieved, the foreigners will co here. They must have a secret thod for manipulating fallen angels. By then, I will be forever enslaved and ordered around by people.”
“However, the Heavens pitied . They let et you at my most desperate ti. Your blood can replace the last step: extre yin to yang. It will let break through ahead of ti.”
The woman was deceiving Li Xianyu. She didn’t want Li Xianyu to save her at all. She tried to control him, making him climb on her body to let her suck his blood. Awkwardly, she found that she had been hung a little too high, and Li Xianyu couldn’t reach her.
Of course, Li Xianyu was not a good guy either. He didn’t really want to save the woman. He pretended to sympathize with her. After regaining control of his body, he would kill her imdiately.
The both of them successfully deceived each other through their antics. However, the woman was slightly better. She was not dead.
Li Xianyu was the one who would die. Step by step, he got closer to the woman, not assuming control over his body. Li Xianyu was finally afraid. His self-healing ability could not revive the dead. He had limits, too.
He couldn’t imagine that despite his skills with won, he would die in their hands. When he was below the woman, he used his hands and feet to climb to the position, going face-to-face with her. She tilted his head and exposed his neck.
The dew had finally co after a long drought. The woman opened her mouth, and two zombie-like fangs protruded, accurately piercing the main artery of Li Xianyu.
Gulp, gulp... Her Adam’s apple moved as she swallowed his blood.
The incantations in the room beca stronger, as the whole space was overwheld with a mixture of yin and yang.
With continued blood loss, Li Xianyu’s body began to dry, his flesh and blood atrophied as his eyeballs burst.
After sucking enough blood, she let go of her mouth and Li Xianyu fell on the ground. The woman’s shriveled abdon began to bulge and grow larger and larger. After a few breaths, it was round like a ball.
The belly split, and a bloody ball of flesh rolled out of the abdon. The ball of flesh rolled to the feet of Li Xianyu. It glowed red, and it looked like it was breathing.
Pfft! The ball of flesh split, and a white jade-like slender hand broke out. Then, a young woman erged. She was exquisite and had long hair that reached her waist. She looked beautiful and gorgeous.
She looked down at her new body with a mixture of surprise and joy. Tears flowed from her eyes. They slipped across her cheeks, but they did not drop on the ground. They disappeared.
Her body suddenly changed from real to virtual, just like a light bulb with an unstable circuit which flickered several tis, and finally beca a semi-entity between the real and the virtual.
For a long ti, Hua Yang seed unable to accept the reality. “This is the fallen angel. This is the fallen angel...” She roared angrily and the walls cracked from the sound. After all, she was dead. The dead could not be brought back to life. That was the hard truth. Presently, she was neither human nor spirit. She was not classified among the five elents.
“The fallen angel is actually like this. It must be attached to a living body, otherwise it cannot exist in isolation. They really have a way to control , to order around, to use as a weapon. Dream on. I’ve broken the barrier ahead of ti. I’m free.” A trendous anger and hatred could be seen in Hua Yang’s eyes.
“Ooh? He’s not dead.” She noticed that Li Xianyu still had signs of life. His signs of life were reviving as his dried body began to moisten again.
Even the strongest demon descendants, with their blood sucked dry, would not live, much less ordinary people.
“It’s such a terrifying self-healing ability. His blood is pure and has yang. It’s my best weapon. Heaven has treated well indeed. If I managed to possess him and occupy his body, I will be able to walk out and take revenge.”
Hua Yang slowly laid down in Li Xianyu’s body.
