After breaking up, I picked up a beautiful vampire girl

The fire burning in Xia Lingyue's eyes gradually began to turn black, and every swing of her blade was accompanied by scarlet flames.

Cut off the black arms that continuously emerge from the dark earth one by one.

However, these arms seemed to be the despair that continued to emerge from an endless abyss.

Each destruction was only temporary, and more arms immediately stretched out from the cracks in the ground.

They twisted, struggled, and even began to grow deformed bodies, as if mocking the girl's powerlessness.

The existence of these monsters is not just to block Xia Lingyue's progress, but more like an invisible expulsion, a denial of Xia Lingyue's existence.

They didn't hurt her, but they were more cruel than any attack because they were silently telling her that everything she did was in vain.

She couldn't take anyone away, nor could she get anything back.

The huge strange tree with a human face began to become more and more weird after swallowing Meng Meng.

It smiled, but that smile was extremely twisted.

The dry and wrinkled skin emitted a suffocating black light, as if it was the source of evil, constantly devouring the surrounding black mucus and arms.

Li Lingsheng's voice rang in Xia Lingyue's ears. He caressed his sister, but there was no emotion in his voice: "It is decomposing everything about Sister Mengmeng."

Xia Lingyue's body shook slightly, but her eyes became more determined, and the girl pushed her brother away.

"If you don't want to help, get away from me!"

She didn't need to be reminded, she had only one thought in her mind, and that was to rescue Sister Mengmeng from the clutches of this strange tree.

Behind her, a pair of small wings suddenly spread out. They flapped violently in the wind, carrying her body into the sky, and then swooped down towards the strange tree like a meteor.

"Give her back to me! Monster!!"

Xia Lingyue's roar echoed in the night sky, and her blade shone with scarlet flames under the gloomy sky. She had only one target, and that was the core of the strange tree.

However, just as she was about to touch the strange tree, a thick branch suddenly stretched out from the darkness, and it hit Xia Lingyue hard with the force of thunder.

She screamed, her body drew an arc in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground with a dull sound.

Xia Lingyue was lying on the ground, but she immediately turned over and stood up.

The face of the giant tree laughed at her.

It was as if mocking her powerlessness.

"Laugh, I like to laugh."

Xia Lingyue threw the long sword away, and the long sword instantly turned into scarlet fragments in mid-air.

"I'll make you stop laughing."

"Sister... Dad said that you can't use that kind of black flame."

Li Lingsheng walked over, and the black arms naturally began to fade away, but they still surrounded the two of them, preventing them from getting close to the giant tree.

"Li Lingsheng, I've never begged anyone in my life. I can sense that this thing is afraid of you."

Xia Lingyue turned her head slightly to look at Li Lingsheng. Her forehead and left eye were now stained with blood.

But the girl seemed to be unaware of the pain and she just stared at her brother.

"Sister, please bring Sister Mengmeng back."

"...Sister, you have always said that Sister Mengmeng has bad intentions towards Dad, and the person you hate the most is Sister Mengmeng."

"I hate her, and it has nothing to do with whether she should die here or not."

"I don't quite understand..."

Li Lingsheng was in pain and didn't know what to do.

This was not like the previous time when he broke the window to save Zhong Ke, because Zhong Ke wanted to survive.

Her desire was so strong that Li Lingsheng saved her.

If she fell from the roof in despair, Li Lingsheng might just watch her die.

That's the case now.

However, now, Sister Mengmeng's choice has put him in deep conflict.

She chose to give up everything and atone for her sins. Her eyes no longer showed a desire for life, but a determination to die.

Li Lingsheng felt a severe pain in his heart. He didn't know whether he should interfere when a person voluntarily walked towards death.

At this moment, the shaking of the earth intensified again.

The branches and leaves of the strange tree began to grow wildly, but the new branches and leaves were not vibrant green, but pitch black eroded by darkness.

These branches twisted and entangled like tentacles in a nightmare, tightly wrapping the monster's body.

"It's too late..." There was despair in Li Lingsheng's voice. He looked at the giant tree and felt powerless.

He knew that Sister Mengmeng had been digested by the tree. She no longer existed and everything had been swallowed up by the tree.

At this moment, the monster suddenly opened its mouth

Then a girl's body, entangled by tree roots, was slowly lifted out of his mouth.

Sister Mengmeng's body no longer belongs to her.

Her hair was as white as a waterfall, and her skin was covered with ancient runes. She was no longer the gentle little nightmare demon.

Instead, he became the master of a clan, an existence shrouded in nightmares.

She did everything she said, returned to her roots, fell into the abyss, and her life had found its home.

And now, her body has become a carrier for feeding countless nightmare monsters. Her body will give birth to new members of the tribe, and the visions of all the tribe members will be realized in this body.

This is Mengmeng’s atonement, her choice, her sacrifice.

"That's...her choice."

Li Lingsheng's eyes were moist, and his heart felt an indescribable pain at this moment.

He felt his heart beating erratically, as if in protest, or as if in mourning.

He didn't understand why his heart still beat so discordantly after Sister Mengmeng chose this path.

Isn't this what she wanted...

"Since you have chosen this path."

Li Lingsheng's voice was low and trembling.

"Then why does my heart keep making this discordant beeping sound..."

Do you still have some consciousness left to tell me, tell the world... tell you everything you know.

The Nightmare Lord slowly opened his eyes.

Her entire pupil was pitch black, as if it were a bottomless abyss.

...

...

At the same time, at Li Muhan and Xia Yue’s home.

"Ah~ open your mouth~"

"Sir, please allow me to say one last thing...Ah! Ah! What! You stuffed something into my mouth~"

"My special sweet and sour octopus, is it delicious?"

"Ah!! Ah! This octopus! Why does it have nine legs?! Holy shit! It's still alive! Gurgle gurgle gurgle."

Before he could finish his words, Xia Yue covered Li Muhan's mouth.

"Swallow it~ Be good, this is a special product sent to me by the Blood Moon Church. They say that eating it can prolong life and strengthen the body. It's a good thing~"

"what......"

Li Muhan could even feel that the ghost thing he had just swallowed was still crawling up his throat.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

So he quickly asked Xia Yue to give him a sip of water.

"Well, dear..." Xia Yue sat astride Li Muhan and raised her hand to untie her hairband.

She was looking at Li Muhan with her hair disheveled.

"Sister River God, does it look good?"

"It looks good! It looks good! I just said it a hundred times!!"

At this moment, Li Muhan was tied to a chair and only his head could move.

"No! Your rope! What's going on?! This rope... looks so familiar?! What's going on!?"

"Don't move. I asked someone to borrow this for me..." Xia Yue grabbed the other end of the rope and said with a weird smile on her face.

"The golden rope, do you remember?"

"Fuck... Why did you borrow money from Yuehuang City? Who did you borrow it from? "

"When I went to your company to visit Yan Yu today, she said that this thing was temporarily taken over by Tianhai City. It seems that something happened at the Special Management Bureau of Yuehuang City. Well... how did she say it? It seems that a birdman from the sky came down and took all the treasures back."

"Ah?" Li Muhan was stunned and asked quickly.

"What's going on? In the sky? Who?"

"Hey! Don't change the subject! I'm asking you! Is the river god beautiful?"

"... Beautiful, that's so beautiful."

"Humph... I never thought that the crying brat back then was actually you... If I had known that you were a pervert who had watched others bathe since childhood, I would have drowned you."

Li Muhan wanted to cry but had no tears. He didn't see anything at that time.

Besides, what good person would bathe in the river in the middle of the night?

"That's right, that's right. You're so beautiful. Although I was still a child at that time, I was attracted to you! I swore at that time! I must marry this river woman, ah, no, it's the river goddess sister. Look, my dream has come true now! I even let the river goddess sister give birth to two children for me!"

"Hmph... You got a bargain. Eat up this plate of octopus."

Whose octopus has nine legs? And this thing is still alive! It's still moving! Holy shit! It's opening its mouth. What's that circle? Is it a sawtooth?! Can I survive if I eat this?!

Just when Li Muhan was completely desperate, suddenly, there was a noise coming from Li Lingsheng's room.

"Wife! Wife! Our son is back!!"

"Don't scare me, I didn't notice them coming back, eat quickly."

"No, seriously, there's movement in Lingsheng's room!"

Xia Yue turned her head and took a look.

Sure enough, there was not only movement, but also a golden light coming out of the room.

"......Stay still here, I'll go take a look."

Xia Yue put the plate on Li Muhan's head.

"That's great. If the dishes are broken when I come back, I have other specialties here."

After saying that, Xia Yue got off Li Muhan's legs and walked towards Li Lingsheng's room.

"Lingsheng, why didn't you tell me you were back? What are you doing? You look like you're being consecrated."

Xia Yue said as she walked to the door of Li Lingsheng's room.

Because I sprayed insecticide today.

So all the room doors were open.

Then Xia Yue saw the head of Li Lingsheng's bed.

The branch contained in the glass bottle is now emitting a dazzling golden light.
