The skills of the person who concocted this item are limited indeed.
This bell could probably only be used three tis, each ti lasting for the duration of a tea ceremony.
This was already the third ti.
The cracks were becoming increasingly apparent.
In the ti it took to brew another pot of tea, this item would self-destruct.
Nanli was no saint, and since that was the case...
She smirked, undoing the protective talisman on second-in-command while simultaneously ringing the Soul-Shaking Bell.
Second-in-command was filled with terror, his pupils shrinking, his mouth shouting in protest.
But he heard the sound of the bell, and his head began to throb, as if it were about to explode.
Ah!" Second-in-command writhed in pain on the ground, his clothes stained with filth.
He was afraid!
Afraid of his soul shattering, afraid of becoming a fool, and even more afraid of not having a ghost official to collect him after death, unable to reincarnate.
Seeing that he had suffered enough tornt, Nanli stopped ringing the bell.
"If it weren’t for fear of damaging my accumulated rits, I would have shattered your soul. Consider yourself lucky today," Nanli said, taking the Soul-Shattering Bell and leaving.
Killing evildoers and banishing evil spirits was different from shattering souls, which was extrely sinister.
After all, once a soul was shattered, even in death, it remained fragnted, without even the qualification to enter the underworld.
So she controlled the Soul-Shattering Bell, rely giving Second-in-command a lesson. However, even without the tornt of the bell’s sound, Second-in-command’s headache did not subside.
He felt nauseous, and his body was too weak to stand up.
This was more than just a lesson; it was worse than taking his life.
Nanli waited until nightfall before resisting, waiting for her strength to recover.
Now, it was ti to quickly find her eldest brother.
With the help of the Soul-Shattering Bell, no matter how many bandits there were, no matter how fierce they were, they couldn’t harm her in the slightest.
Moreover, she could easily locate their whereabouts.
At this mont, the Head of bandits was about to ask Chu Ye to drink the ceremonial wine.
Although she had already drunk it several tis, it was different with a new husband; etiquette could not be neglected.
Chu Ye ca from a prestigious family, with good looks.
Nanli might not get tired of him and could spend her life with him.
Chu Ye picked up the wine cup, but thoughts of Xiao Wanyi ca to his mind.
Seeing the Head of bandits approaching, wanting to hold his hand, he couldn’t bear it.
He smashed the cup on the ground without hesitation and attacked the Head of bandits’ vital points!
"You truly are disobedient," the Head of bandits laughed heartily, imdiately engaging in a fight with Chu Ye in the room.
Their martial arts were evenly matched.
In fact, the Head of bandits had the upper hand, as her attacks were ruthless, targeting the lower regions of n.
The Head of bandits even spoke to distract Chu Ye, "Are you daring to resist, disregarding your own sister? I’ll have soone take care of her!"
Chu Ye was both angry and anxious, and the Head of bandits found an opportunity to strike, landing a punch on his chest.
His blood surged, and he suffered so internal injuries, retreating a few steps.
Blood stains appeared at the corners of his mouth.
The Head of bandits felt a bit regretful, "What a waste. With your injuries, how can we consummate the marriage?"
Chu Ye gasped for breath, seeing the Head of bandits approaching step by step, his scalp tingling.
The Head of bandits smiled, ready to pounce.
Unexpectedly, at that mont, the door was kicked open, falling to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
The Head of bandits coughed a few tis, angrily exclaiming, "Who dares to obstruct my good fortune!"
In the darkness, a petite figure slowly approached, wearing a cold and lifeless expression.
Chu Ye felt both joy and relief, "Li’er!"
Nanli saw the bloodstains at the corners of his mouth, and a storm seed to surge in her eyes.
She spoke each word deliberately, "You’ve hurt my eldest brother."
Although the Head of bandits was shocked by Nanli’s appearance, she quickly reacted and swung the large knife hanging on the wooden rack.
A chilling light burst forth!
When the knife fell, it stirred up a fierce gust of wind!
Nanli stood there, motionless, but with a subtle lift of her chin, exuding an air of invincibility.
She perford the sa hand seal, dispelling the talismans on the leader’s body. Then, she shook the Soul-Shattering Bell, and its eerie chi exploded in the leader’s mind, causing him excruciating pain.
Unable to hold onto his sword, it clattered to the ground.
He collapsed to his knees, clutching his head, devoid of his previous arrogance.
With great effort, he managed to utter a few words, "Spare ... I will imdiately... escort you down the mountain."
"Too late," Nanli’s right hand continued its movent.
The leader spat out a mouthful of blood.
Plum blossoms scattered on the ground.
Chu Ye expressed concern, "Li’er, is this the artifact they use to shatter souls? Don’t... don’t let my impulsive actions lead us down an irreversible path."
Seeing the leader barely clinging to life, Nanli ceased her actions and said, "Big brother, don’t worry, I can control it and won’t shatter their souls."
Chu Ye breathed a sigh of relief, "That’s good."
He adjusted his breath, no longer affected.
Glancing at the leader on the ground, he couldn’t summon any pity for him, despite being a righteous man.
Countless innocent people had died at the hands of these bandits, and many soldiers had been driven to madness.
"Li’er, let’s leave Heishui Village first," Chu Ye said.
"Big brother, since we’re here, why not eliminate these bandits?" Nanli blinked her eyes.
Chu Ye furrowed his brows, "But there are only two of us. I ca here to ensure your safety."
"I am not a delicate little girl, and besides, I have this," Nanli raised the Soul-Shattering Bell in her hand. "Isn’t it fitting to use their own thods against them?"
Chu Ye felt sowhat embarrassed at this mont.
He had co to rescue his younger sister, but unexpectedly, she ended up saving him. As the older brother, he felt ashad.
"Alright!" Chu Ye declared, "Today, my siblings shall annihilate Heishui Village!"
Nanli nodded.
She found Xuanyue Sword and Tianxing Brush in the leader’s house, securing them and feeling a surge of security.
Chu Ye took the sword of the head of bandits and prepared to go out and ruthlessly slay the enemies, only to find that most of the bandits in Heishui Village were already lying on the ground, clutching their heads in agony.
"..." Chu Ye glanced at Nanli, his gaze questioning.
"They blocked our way when we arrived," Nanli replied naturally.
Chu Ye should have known better. His little sister was not a fragile girl.
His presence seed to have hindered her performance.
However, the ti of a single tea had already passed.
Soone noticed that the Soul-Shattering Bell in Nanli’s hand had shattered.
"Look, the artifact is broken! We no longer need to fear her!" soone shouted triumphantly.
Under the moonlight, everyone could see clearly.
Their previous fear and pleas for rcy quickly transford into smug ruthlessness.
Another person brandished a knife, "Kill them!"
Dozens of people gripped their weapons and charged towards the two of them.
Chu Ye’s expression turned grave as he positioned himself in front of Nanli.
He would protect his little sister.
