Chapter 340

　　Chapter 340 – Hua s.h.i.+ VS Sun Fang & Li Jing

　　Sun Fang glanced at his remaining lifespans in his system menu . Less than 60,000 years were remaining .

　　He hesitated if he should activate his Qi s.h.i.+eld, so he would be invulnerable to ambushes .

　　"If I were her, I would have ambushed us here . "

　　Sun Fang looked around the shacks and the houses of the civilians in the county . As all peasants were asleep, only he and Li Jing ran around in the middle of the town .

　　Although it was pitch black at night, they could still sense their surroundings . Furthermore, they could also catch a glimpse of Hua s.h.i.+'s presence further away inside the city .

　　Li Jing's eyes sharpened, "She's here! Get ready!"

　　Sun Fang took a deep breath and summoned his soul, [Patience] . His soul had the same appearance as his previous life, the bodyguard of Ping's family .

　　Patience flew forward toward the direction of Hua s.h.i.+'s presence to probe her .

　　And Hua s.h.i.+ took the bait .

　　[Diligence] and [Love] from Hua s.h.i.+ flew at Sun Fang's soul with their glowing short sword . Both of them slashed at [Patience] .

　　Surprised, Sun Fang pulled his soul backward . However, [Love] managed to connect the slash with [Patience]'s face, cutting from the forehead across his face toward his cheek on the other side .

　　A slant wound appeared on Sun Fang's real face as the cut injured his soul .

　　"d.a.m.n it! Qi Blast!"

　　An energy ball manifested before Sun Fang's soul and shot at [Love] .

　　The soul with the appearance of a young nurse grinned . She braced the impact without defending herself .

　　*BOOM*

　　The energy ball exploded, but [Love] was unharmed!

　　*PU*

　　[Love]'s glowing knife stabbed into [Patience]'s chest!

　　Within Sun Fang's body, the same stab wound appeared as his soul received another injury . Blood from his veins flooded into the damaged lung, and the red liquid was pumped out of his respiratory system .

　　Sun Fang choked and spat a mouthful of blood . He screamed, "Jing'er, help!"

　　Li Jing stared at the souls of Hua s.h.i.+ as if she saw ghosts . She recognized the appearances of these nurses .

　　It was her crush in her previous life, Sunday .

　　When Li Jing heard the scream of Sun Fang, she came back to her sense . Upon seeing the distressed look and the injuries, Li Jing's anger shot through the roof .

　　In Li Jing's last life, she did everything she could to save Hua s.h.i.+, but she was betrayed . Now, Hua s.h.i.+ was about to kill her husband .

　　"SUNDAY!!"

　　Li Jing shouted as she summoned her virtuous soul, [Love] . It s.n.a.t.c.hed Li Jing's sword from her belt and flew toward Sun Fang and Hua s.h.i.+'s soul .

　　Ironically, the girls possessed the same virtue, yet their karma bound them together as enemies .

　　Al though Li Jing's [Love] tried to attack at Hua s.h.i.+'s soul, she was stopped by Hua s.h.i.+'s [Diligence] .

　　"AHHHH!!"

　　Li Jing continued screaming as if she had gone mad . [Love] swung the sword without form, but it contained the aura of an immortal .

　　[Diligence] parried the sword with her short sword . Because her knife range was shorter, Hua s.h.i.+'s soul could not find a chance to counter-attack .

　　On the other side, Sun Fang retreated as his injuries worsened for every second pa.s.s . He attempted to use his healing skill, but the wounds on his soul remained .

　　"Argh!"

　　Desperate, Sun Fang took out a medicine pill he concocted with his [Dao of Alchemy] skill . It was a pill listed in the system as a wind pill .

　　The detail stated that this pill could increase the speed of the consumer by 50% upon consumption, but his speed would be penalized by 50% when the effect of his medicine was over .

　　Sun Fang did not know how long this pill could last, but he threw it in his mouth anyway .

　　Once the pill was swallowed, it melted into his stomach, and Sun Fang could sense the change . This pill had a similar effect as Tong's overclock mode as it accelerated his perception . Everything became a slow-motion while Sun Fang could maintain his average speed .

　　A bullet-time activated!

　　Sun Fang's [Patience] managed to catch his breath and dodged another strike from [Love]'s knife . He countered her with his strongest punch to her guts .

　　*POEK*

　　[Love]'s body bent forward as she could feel the pain, which it stunned her .

　　 .

　　Meanwhile, the master of these two souls, Hua s.h.i.+, had been hiding behind a shack .

　　The moment Sun Fang punched her, she was stunned and could not control her bowel .

　　*PLUEK*

　　Hua s.h.i.+ vomited her last meal, and her concentration shook for a split second .

　　*SWUA*

　　[Diligence] got stabbed into her stomach by Li Jing's [Love] . The soul glared at Hua s.h.i.+'s soul in resentment as she bellowed .

　　"SUNDAY! YOU WILL PAY!!"

　　In a panic and pain, Hua s.h.i.+ unsummoned all of her souls . She activated her regeneration skill to heal her physical wounds, but she could not heal her soul .

　　Now, both Hua s.h.i.+ and Sun Fang had soul injuries .

　　"YOU CAN'T HIDE!!"

　　Li Jing went into a frenzy as she traced Hua s.h.i.+'s presence and ran to her hidden spot .

　　Seeing the pursuer, Hua s.h.i.+ gritted her teeth . Although she could not remember who this person was, Hua s.h.i.+ had a vague déjà vu feeling coming from this woman .

　　Using her brain, Hua s.h.i.+ ran toward the open area in the town center . On this location, many night patrol guards gathered and drank in peace .

　　Hua s.h.i.+ screamed, "Help!! Murderers!"

　　The guards turned to Hua s.h.i.+'s direction in reflex . They grabbed their weapons and ran toward her .

　　Hua s.h.i.+ abandoned her disguise and hid her weapons in her inventory . She ran to the guards like a helpless housewife .

　　Following behind Hua s.h.i.+, Li Jing and her soul screamed and kicked the ground, leaping at their target in full speed .

　　"A witch!"

　　"What!? A ghost!?"

　　The guards panicked, but they raised their spears to attack Li Jing .

　　"SCRAM"

　　Li Jing's soul ignored the attacks . She slashed the guards' neck as she flew after Hua s.h.i.+ .

　　While Li Jing switched her focus to the guards, Hua s.h.i.+ summoned a crude oil barrel and hurled it at Li Jing's main body .

　　*BANG*

　　The barrel hit Li Jing, but it did not break .

　　Li Jing shoved the barrel away . When she regained her sight on Hua s.h.i.+, she was drawing a bow in a full moon arc, aiming at Li Jing's main body .

　　40 Light arrows flew from Hua s.h.i.+'s bow, locking on Li Jing's torso .

　　*PUEK*

　　*PUEK*

　　*PUEK*

　　*PUEK*

　　As Li Jing did not unsummon her soul and use her aura, her real body was still vulnerable to all system skills . All arrows struck into Li Jing's body, turning her frontal body into a reverse porcupine .

　　"Ah …"

　　Li Jing came back to her sense after she felt several cold arrowheads lodging into her chest and stomach . She fell on her back afterward .

　　"JING'ER!!"

　　Sun Fang screamed, fearing for the fate of his wife . Before he could get closer, Hua s.h.i.+ already pointed her short sword on Li Jing's neck .

　　Looking at her from 50 meters away, Sun Fang noticed that Li Jing was still breathing .

　　Sun Fang glared at Hua s.h.i.+ with hatred, "Let her go!"

　　Hua s.h.i.+ spat the remaining digestive fluid inside her mouth . She sneered at Sun Fang, "I came here in peace, but you two wanted me dead . This is what you get!"

　　"We won't go after you anymore . Please, let her go . "

　　Sun Fang was desperate . As a former virgin with no experience in relations.h.i.+p, Li Jing was his first wife and first love in two lives . As such, his mentality and thought centered on Li Jing's existence .

　　He could not afford to lose her here .

　　On the other hand, Hua s.h.i.+ clenched her stomach . The physical wound had been healed, but the lingering pain was still there . She could sense that both her souls also retained the stabbed wound, and it did not show any sign of recovery any time soon .

　　With such injury, Hua s.h.i.+ did not want to continue fighting or having any hostile otherworlder coming after her .

　　Killing Li Jing here would be ideal, but she would have to fight with Sun Fang next .

　　'Should I take both of them out, or should I take this girl as a hostage and kill her later?'

　　Hua s.h.i.+ looked at the half-dead Li Jing on the ground . She was looking at Hua s.h.i.+ in the eyes as she muttered, "Sunday …"

　　The owner of the name frowned . Upon closer inspection and recollection about Li Jing's soul and her appearance, Hua s.h.i.+ recalled a bad memory in her previous life .

　　There was a sick female doctor that asked her out, but Hua s.h.i.+ turned her down .

　　After that collapsed-hospital incident, she fed her human's flesh and blood instead of regular food and water .

　　Moreover, she killed a doctor, who was Hua s.h.i.+'s crush and forced-feed his flesh to her .

　　When the rescue team found them, this mental girl was talking to herself, planning to kill Hua s.h.i.+ and commit suicide .

　　"Ah, you're that psycho b.i.t.c.h . "

　　The eyes of Li Jing shook . She raised her arm, trying to touch Hua s.h.i.+'s face .

　　"I … still … love you . "

　　"Sorry, I already have a husband and a child . If you reincarnate into a hot stud next life, maybe I'll give you a chance . "

　　"Sunday …"

　　Realizing the ident.i.ty of this half-dead woman, Hua s.h.i.+ made a decision . It might be risky, but she had confidence that she could pull it off .
