Chapter 363: Chapter 363 Demons and Deities
Li Xiaoyao emerged from the ruins with Xiaoqing hidden in his sleeve, manipulating this body that possessed only a single soul and three spirits.
The two left the area and landed in an inconspicuous spot.
At that moment, Ling City was still in a state of panic, with crowds of common folk rushing towards the outskirts.
In recent times, Ling City had witnessed too many strange occurrences. For the first time, ordinary people felt that the world was so insecure.
Xiaoqing looked around, her gaze wandering over the towering steel-reinforced buildings and the modern roads, momentarily lost in a trance.
“This world, the changes have been so vast.” Xiaoqing stood beside Li Xiaoyao, looking at the unsettling scene in front of them, and asked, “What happened? Why is everyone running to the outside of the city?”
Li Xiaoyao gave her a puzzled look and said, “Isn’t it because of the roar you let out earlier, which collapsed all the buildings within hundreds of meters? The common people thought a monster had appeared and were so frightened that they all wanted to flee from the city.”
“You’re right, I am indeed a monster,” Xiaoqing nodded and said, “But I wouldn’t harm human lives lightly.”
“Heh, what, are you trying to say you’re a good monster?” Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes, clearly disbelieving.
Xiaoqing frowned, “Am I not?”
“If you really were a good monster, you shouldn’t have done what you did earlier! Do you realize how many lives your cry has claimed? Even with a mentality that treats human life as worthless as you do, you have the audacity to claim you’re a good monster? That’s rather ironic,” Li Xiaoyao said, not caring whether his words might upset her. The massive scale of the building collapse and the lost lives, even the typically cold-hearted Li Xiaoyao found it somewhat unbearable.
Xiaoqing stared at Li Xiaoyao for a few seconds and then said, “If I were a deity, would you not think what I did earlier was wrong?”
“If you were a deity, how could you be so cruel and ruthless?”
“In your eyes, deities are the embodiment of kindness and love?” Xiaoqing said with self-mockery, “You have never seen a deity. How would you know their vile faces?”
“When my sister and I sneaked into the mortal world, we only wanted to experience human life. We never harmed a human. Instead, we helped many poor and pitiable ones. Yet, those self-righteous bastards treated my sister and me as brutal monsters, notorious and murderous, and sought to hunt us down and exterminate us.”
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyao’s heart stirred and he asked, “Is your name Xiaoqing?”
“Is there a problem?”
“You have an older sister?” Li Xiaoyao had a strange idea and continued, “The one who sealed and suppressed you, was he bald?”
“What exactly do you want to ask?”
Li Xiaoyao swallowed hard; he suddenly realized he might be incredibly close to a character from the myths and legends. Of course, that was only if this Xiaoqing was the one he had in mind.
After pondering for a few seconds, Li Xiaoyao asked, “Is your sister called Bai Suzhen?”
Xiaoqing looked surprised and then a sharp killing intent flashed in her eyes. Squinting at him she demanded, “Tell me, who exactly are you?”
“Who can I be? I’m just a cultivator with low cultivation level,” said Li Xiaoyao, unfazed, with a smile, “If your sister is Bai Suzhen, then it seems I’m not mistaken. I suppose the bald one who sealed and suppressed you, was the monk named Fahai, right?”
“Buzz!”
A cyan whip shot out from Xiaoqing’s fingertips, piercing through the void and stopping right in front of Li Xiaoyao’s neck.
Li Xiaoyao could clearly see the unmasked intense killing intent on Xiaoqing’s face, and he believed that if he dared to make the slightest rash move, that cyan whip would pierce his neck.
“Tell me, how did you come to know this information?”
“Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing, Fahai from the Jinshan Temple, this mythological story has been known for a thousand years, recognized by every household. Grab any kid off the streets, and they could recount that myth to you. But I never imagined that this legend might actually be true.” Facing death, Li Xiaoyao was not at all frightened; instead, his eyes shone brightly, his heart filled with an eager urge to try.
Now, Li Xiaoyao had met Nie Xiaoqian and also encountered Xiao Qing.
So it stood to reason that those ancient mythological legends should all be true.
Perhaps Li Xiaoyao could adopt a different way of thinking about this matter. The so-called mythological stories passed down might not be fabrications but were the real accounts of these mythological beings, merely chronicled in the form of travel logs by the ancients.
At this thought, Li Xiaoyao felt a surge of excitement. If this were true, could he not have the chance to meet those legendary deities?
For example, Sun Wukong!
Speaking of Sun Wukong, Li Xiaoyao truly believed that the Great Saint existed.
He had once purchased the Eight-Nine Mystical Art from the System, that is, the Seventy-Two Transformations; this in itself was enough proof that Sun Wukong existed.
It was indeed something to yearn for, that era where immortals and demons roamed freely!
Xiao Qing saw Li Xiaoyao’s enraptured expression and looked slightly bemused. Just then, as a few men walked by the roadside, Xiao Qing stepped forward to stop them and asked, “Do you know Bai Suzhen?”
The men glanced over Xiao Qing, and their eyes instantly stuck to her, gleaming with lascivious intent.
“This chick is not bad.”
“Girls these days are really bold, daring to go out dressed like that.”
“Let’s hold her down and have a good time, with all the chaos nowadays, no one will care what we do.”

“Damn, this woman has a fine body, I’m already hard.”
Listening to the men’s conversation, Xiao Qing’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. Before she could repeat her question, the men had already rushed over, reaching out to grab her hands.
“Seeking death!” Murder flared in Xiao Qing’s eyes, but before she could react, Li Xiaoyao was already a step ahead, appearing in a flash and delivering a kick, sending the men to the ground, clutching their chests and whining.
Turning to glance at Xiao Qing, Li Xiaoyao said, “If you killed them, how would you ask your questions?”
Shooting him a glance, Xiao Qing sashayed forward and asked, “Do you know Xiao Qing and Bai Suzhen?”
“Fuck your grandpa, what Xiao Qing and Bai Suzhen, you dare kick me, you… ” Before the man could finish, Li Xiaoyao’s foot was on his chest, his voice cold, “She asks, you answer. Utter one more useless word, and I’ll break your manhood.”
The man’s heart quivered, instantly cowed: “Ask away, ask away.”
“Answer the question I just asked,” Xiao Qing said, growing impatient.
“Oh, you mean Bai Suzhen? I know her,” the man thought. What kind of question is this? Could this woman be a fan of Bai Suzhen?
“You know?” Xiao Qing was quite surprised, pressing on, “What do you know? Speak!”
The man replied, “I know that Bai Suzhen is a serpent demon who succeeded in her cultivation. She has a sister called Xiao Qing, a husband named Xu Xian, oh right, and a monk called Fahai who separated them and suppressed her under the Leifeng Pagoda.”
