Chapter 153: Frost in July
Although Liu Mei and her companions fought hard against the demons, the sheer number and ferocity of the demon beasts were overwhelming.
The city walls began to crack, and many demon beasts jumped over them, entering the city and causing widespread destruction.
The city guards, no match for these strong and powerful demon beasts, were quickly overwhelmed and on the verge of death.
At that moment, a streak of light shot out from the city lord’s residence, continuously killing the demon beasts that had slipped through the cracks. It was Xia Yunxi.
With a wave of her hand, two streams of water turned into whips, whipping the demon beasts away. Then, with another wave, several water arrows flew out, impaling the demon beasts on the ground.
She nodded at the guards who had narrowly escaped, then flew off in another direction.
Seeing that the situation was becoming dire, Liu Mei threw numerous pink pills into the city, releasing a pink mist that spread throughout the city.
She summoned her zither again, and the beautiful music echoed throughout the city, arousing the soldiers’ lust.
Although her seductive arts had no effect on the demon beasts, there were still living humans in the city!
Mo Ruyu chuckled, “Senior Sister, you can use the Entwining Fragrance like that?”
Liu Mei smiled slightly, “Why not? A surge of passion and a surge of beastly blood are the same, aren’t they?”
Under the influence of her Entwining Fragrance and the zither music, the guards felt as if they had ingested elixirs, their courage soaring and their bodies brimming with boundless energy.
Mo Ruyu and Wang Yanran exchanged knowing smiles, constantly casting flirtatious glances at the guards, who then charged forward with a roar.
Although Zhou Xiaoping blushed, she had to admit that it was highly effective.
Under the seductive allure of these demon maidens, the guards’ morale soared. Despite the ferocity of the demon beasts, they did not retreat, but fought with increasing bravery, successfully repelling wave after wave of attacks.
However, the increasing number of demon beasts, including many in the Foundation Establishment Realm, made it difficult for Liu Mei and her companions to keep up.
At that moment, a bone-chilling wind swept in, causing everyone to shiver.
Outside of Ning City, a petite figure was walking through the snow and wind toward the city.
Her steps seemed slow, but in reality, she was moving at an incredible speed.
With each step of her bare, delicate feet, the ice and frost in the air condensed, forming a river of cold ice flowing toward Ning City.
The little girl with silver-white hair was surrounded by a swirling aura of demonic energy that grew stronger with every step she took.
Soon, the breathtakingly beautiful little girl disappeared, replaced by a stunning woman with silver-white hair.
This woman’s beauty was unparalleled, her face a masterpiece created by the heavens, unmatched in its splendor.
Most striking were her eyes, deep and cold as an icy lake, clear and cold, as if they could freeze everything in their gaze.
Her figure was exquisitely proportioned, her curves like fine sculptures, graceful and elegant. As she moved, her silver-white hair, pure as snow, swayed gently with each step.
Although she was wearing Lin Fengmian’s outer robe, the garment was almost bursting at the seams, and a glimpse of her snow-white cleavage peeked out from the neckline, drawing attention.
But at that moment, the stunning fox demon seemed to be in some pain, her full, rosy lips parted slightly, her long eyelashes trembling, evoking a sense of pity.
She took a deep breath and let out a low howl to the sky.
As her howl echoed, a massive white fox silhouette suddenly appeared behind her.
This huge silhouette exuded a mysterious and awe-inspiring aura, as if a divine beast had descended upon the mortal world.
With the appearance of the fox silhouette, the temperature around them plummeted, and the cold was piercing and bone-chilling.
A bone-chilling wind blew, and the sky underwent a strange transformation as large, feathery snowflakes began to fall.
This bizarre weather phenomenon and the low wailing stunned everyone and every beast in the city.
Someone exclaimed in surprise, “It’s snowing?”
“This is July, how can it be snowing?”
At the same time, all the beasts outside and inside the city stopped, then slowly retreated.
The fox silhouette behind the stunning woman let out a quick, urgent call, as if urging them to leave.
All the beasts turned and fled, roaring as they disappeared into the night, leaving behind a field of corpses and a devastated Ning City.
Snowflakes gently drifted down and covered the entire Ning City, burying everything under a thick layer of snow.
The snow piled up on the streets, forming a thin, white blanket on rooftops and tree branches, like a silver-clad painting.
The landscape of Ning City was transformed into a dreamlike world, serene and beautiful.
Somewhere in the city, Lin Wencheng watched the falling snow, disbelief in his voice: “It really happened, the sun and moon in the same sky, snow in July!”
Li Zhuxuan also looked incredulous, muttering, “This is truly unbelievable, it really is snowing.”
Lin Wencheng, on the other hand, seemed to be in a trance, muttering to himself, “Listen to the wind, do not worry… the snow is falling…”
“Lin Wencheng, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me!” Li Zhuxuan said worriedly.
“I remember, I remember that sentence!” Lin Wencheng shouted.
He slapped his head and said excitedly, “Fengmian’s name comes from here. How could I forget it!”
“What is it?” Li Zhuxuan asked curiously.
“Um, I can’t tell you. It has been passed down orally among the direct descendants and cannot be revealed,” Lin Wencheng said awkwardly.
“Go to hell!”
Li Zhuxuan, feeling both angry and embarrassed, kicked him. She found it extremely annoying that Lin Wencheng spoke in half sentences.
Outside the city, the stunning woman watched as the tide of beasts retreated and couldn’t help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
The fox’s shadow slowly disappeared, and the woman shrank rapidly, turning back into a little girl. The only thing that remained unchanged were the rather impressive peaks on her chest, which seemed to have been proportionally reduced in size without losing any of their grandeur.
The little fox spirit quickly turned around and flew to the place where she had parted ways with Lin Fengmian.
In Ning City, Liu Mei and the others watched the beasts retreat completely, feeling somewhat confused.
The surviving soldiers in the city looked at each other, unsure of who would be the first to shout.
“We won, we won!”
“We won! Long live the immortal maiden, long live the survivors!”
“No, long live the demoness!”
“Damn, I can brag about this for the rest of my life…”
…
As the sky began to brighten, the morning light bathed every corner of the city. The quiet streets were filled with the laughter and cheers of the cultivators.
Although the soldiers were exhausted, they were filled with the joy of surviving a catastrophe. They rang the victory bell to inform the entire city.
However, they soon realized that the Immortal Maiden who had been in the sky was nowhere to be seen, leaving only Zhou Xiaoping, who was equally confused.
She looked around, but couldn’t find Liu Mei and the others, and felt somewhat startled. She quickly flew to the Lin residence.
Inside the Lin residence, the people who had heard the victory bell and the soldiers’ shouts cautiously stepped out.
Only then did they realize that the beasts had indeed retreated, and they couldn’t help but rejoice and spread the news.
Lin Wencheng, his wife, and Song Youwei, who stood at the gate without going out, also let out a long sigh of relief, their faces breaking into joyful smiles.
“This is great, Fengmian and the others have won, the beasts have retreated,” Li Zhuxuan said happily.
“Haha, no wonder he’s my son, Lin Wencheng’s son, he has got what it takes!” Lin Wencheng said proudly.
