Chapter 181 To Extinguish Offspring
Chapter 181 To Extinguish Offspring
Looking at that familiar face, the face that had haunted her countless nightmares, Nana felt hatred, but even more so, fear!
She couldn't understand why a female would carry a knife, and she couldn't understand how a female could unleash such powerful strength!
"It's almost here. No one can be sure of the exact time! But what is certain is that the death of any one of us eight will accelerate the Gu King's victory. In the end, only one of us eight can survive!"
"Only one person can survive?" Xi Xi narrowed her eyes and offered a suggestion, "If that's the case, rather than waiting to die, it's better to secretly kill the other seven!"
“Do you think I haven’t thought about it?” Nana paused suddenly, as if she had thought of something, and explained, “In fact, long before Grandma cast the spell, I had been on guard against these younger sisters for a very, very long time. After all, I didn’t want my efforts of more than ten years to go to waste.”
"But that old witch has cast a curse on each of us since birth. Killing a blood relative will inevitably bring back the curse, so I have never dared to lay a hand on anyone else!"
"The same applies to Gu worm techniques today. We cannot directly assassinate others, nor can we become entangled in the karma of others, otherwise we will suffer a backlash! The only correct way to die is when one's own lifespan is exhausted!"
"And this also maximizes the effect of the Gu worm technique, because as we pull on each other, both fertility and witchcraft will increase accordingly. This is a natural law!"
Nana's words made Xixi fall into deep thought. After a long while, she asked again, "If I kill you, would it be because your lifespan has run out?"
Nana bit her lip, seemingly reluctant to answer the question, but she couldn't resist and could only nod obediently, "Yes! The old witch's curse is meant to make us kill each other, but between you and me, it's a personal feud, my karma!"
With this explanation, Xixi understood.
No wonder the chief witch didn't plead for Nana. It turns out she herself intended for Nana's death to trigger the birth of the Gu King. After all, once she died, this lineage would be thrown into chaos. Rather than waiting to be chosen randomly by the clansmen, it would be better to stand out directly and gather the combined strength of the eight people.
As for who will ultimately emerge victorious, the witch chief doesn't care at all. As long as she can stand out, her magic will be complete!
It can be said that the shaman was ruthless not only to others, but also to his own descendants!
No wonder Nana calls her an old witch!
Killing the witch leader and destroying her physical body is the first step. The second step is to thwart her plans and sever her lineage. Only then can it be considered true revenge!
A crazy and evil idea surfaced in Xixi's mind. She looked at Nana with a cold smile and said, "You just said that as long as it's not you sisters killing each other, if an outsider kills someone, then everyone will be held accountable for their own karma, right?"
"What if I kill all seven of your cousins? In the end, you'll be the only one left alive, won't you?"
"You're actually helping me?" Nana looked incredulous. In her mind, Xixi had killed her once before, and now that she had the chance, she would definitely kill her a second time!
"Just tell me whether it's feasible or not!" Besides, this isn't really helping her; it's just trying to disrupt the sorcerer's spell!
After all, she had used magic to kill her mother, and destroying her magic was to avenge her mother and make up for the regret of that year.
Besides, even if she didn't kill the seven of them, only one of them could survive in the end, and the remaining six would die. As a married female, Nana had many beast husbands behind her. If she didn't intervene, even more people would die!
In total, she only killed one person, but many more survived!
Ultimately, she had to kill someone who didn't want to be involved, and Xixi still felt somewhat reluctant, searching for various reasons to convince herself.
"Thank you!" Nana clasped her hands together, her excitement overflowing. All these changes seemed too fantastical to her; they were simply impossible!
And she gave a positive answer, "It's feasible!"
"Xixi, really, I was wrong before. I was young and ignorant, I was arrogant and conceited, I was completely wrong!" Because of her excitement, Nana seemed a little incoherent. "If I can really survive and become the next chieftain of the Shushu tribe, I will lead the people of the Shushu tribe to follow your lead and never do anything to hurt you again!"
"I swear! I swear by my beast soul that I will regard Xixi as my master for this lifetime. If I harbor any rebellious thoughts, may I be struck down by heaven and earth and never be reincarnated!"
"Hey, stop!" Now she was too embarrassed to add insult to injury!
Originally, she planned to kill the seven people, and then finish off this old rival, thus ensuring the extinction of the witch chief's lineage.
Unexpectedly, Nana misunderstood her meaning and even swore an oath in front of her!
It should be understood that swearing an oath with the soul of a beast is the highest level of oath in the beast world, and it is subject to the rules of heaven and earth!
In other words, if she were to harbor rebellious thoughts in the future, she would truly be punished by heaven and earth!
Given such a vow, it would seem petty of her to kill the other party afterward.
Nana, however, was very quick to respond and immediately called out, "Master!"
Xixi: "..." Things have developed a bit too quickly, let me sort this out...
What should we do now?
Yes, murder!
To make it more discreet, Xixi didn't let Sikong Hongyu kill these people directly with wind blades. Instead, she manipulated the airflow to create a closed space, where they would eventually die from oxygen deprivation and suffocation.
As for Nana, her fertility was damaged by external injuries and could not be restored by witchcraft. Therefore, even with the combined efforts of eight people, she could only reclaim the witchcraft that originally belonged to her.
By sparing Nana's life to ensure the extinction of the witch chief's descendants, this is her true revenge against the witch chief!
After doing all that, she didn't stay in the courtyard full of corpses anymore. She left the corpses to Nana and Niannian to deal with, while she led the two beastmen to wander around the tribe.
The pretense on her face had been removed, and for the first time, she looked at every blade of grass and every tree with a relaxed attitude, at this place where she had lived for more than ten years.
From the center of the tribe, to the hamster clan, from the altar of the coming-of-age ceremony, to the small courtyard where they had previously stayed, and finally to the mother's grave.
It's called a grave, but there's not even a tombstone. Apart from a slightly raised mound of earth and some rather lush weeds, there's nothing there.
She didn't let the beastmen interfere, and personally used a bone knife to clear away the weeds on the slope bit by bit.
She quietly cleaned for a long time without saying a word. She wanted to tell the other person that she had finally avenged her, but then she thought that perhaps she had already seen her real daughter in the afterlife, and their family might have already been reunited.
