Chapter 2253 - 2248: The Descent of the Miracle

Chapter 2253: Chapter 2248: The Descent of the Miracle

Sure enough, that white rose transformed into a red bud.

Tang Ming smiled as he came over to Wang Xi’s side: "Let me take a look at this thing first, Elder Niu won’t mind, right."

Niu Yingzi shook her head, and Tang Ming examined the red bud before placing it aside, then suddenly thrust a sword into Wang Xi’s chest.

Wang Xi looked at Tang Ming in shock, not understanding why Tang Ming suddenly attacked him with lethal intent.

"Don’t just stare, swallow this elixir."

Tang Ming took out a black and red interlaced elixir and handed it to Wang Xi.

"What is this now?"

Wang Xi clutched his wound, the ripping pain making him grimace.

Niu Hao and the others also looked at Tang Ming in surprise. After all, Wang Xi had sworn allegiance to the Niu Family. Even if Wang Xi needed to be dealt with, it should be done by the Niu Family.

Tang Ming, an outsider, acting against Wang Xi, and in front of the Niu Family, seemed like a slap in the face.

"If you go back just like this, the old demon in the West Desolation will definitely suspect you. Even if you don’t die at our hands, you’ll die by his. I gave you this wound; if you take my elixir, it won’t be fatal, and recovery won’t be easy. You can say we thought you were dead, and that’s how you managed to escape back."

Tang Ming’s mouth slightly upturned.

Niu Yingzi’s face revealed a faint smile: "Good idea, what a clever wound. Tang Ming, Jiuzhe, the old lady invites you back for a visit, are you interested?"

Hu Jiuze gave Tang Ming a wink, and Tang Ming nodded: "If the elder invites, it would be my honor to oblige."

Niu Yingzi nodded and, under Niu Hao and the others’ bewildered gazes, took Tang Ming and Hu Jiuze back to the village where Tang Ming was previously received.

The atmosphere in the small living room was somewhat eerie. Tang Ming’s earlier words were still vivid, and the elders who hadn’t descended the mountain were very surprised why Niu Yingzi brought Tang Ming back.

"Grandma, I was wrong."

Niu Lili knelt down in front of Niu Yingzi with a thud.

Niu Yingzi snorted: "Punish you to serve the Blood God in the Blood God Temple for two hours, leave now."

"Mother."

Niu Hao’s face changed drastically upon hearing Niu Yingzi’s words.

"What? Heartbroken? Ask your precious daughter what she said to Hu Jiuze and Tang Ming."

Niu Yingzi slapped the table and stood up.

Hu Jiuze coughed, then said, "Elder, ordinarily, I shouldn’t get involved in your family matters, but I don’t think it was wrong for Miss Lili to tell me about that matter. After all, if we want to clear up misunderstandings, it’s thanks to Miss Lili’s willingness to speak up, isn’t that right?"

"No, you’re wrong. Lili’s grown up; she should know how to take responsibility. She can tell you today, and tomorrow she can tell others. I don’t need a granddaughter who can’t keep the family’s secrets."

Niu Yingzi’s gaze fell on Niu Lili.

Niu Lili wiped the tear stains on her face: "Grandma, father, elders, it was my fault. I accept Grandma’s punishment. I almost endangered the family, I’m heading to the Blood God Temple now."

"Hmm, Fifth Elder, you’re in charge of overseeing her."

Niu Yingzi nodded, looking at an elder seated nearby.

The elder, known for his fairness and stern demeanor, nodded; he wouldn’t punish lightly nor severely.

Watching Niu Lili and the Fifth Elder leave, Niu Yingzi sighed deeply: "Jiuzhe, what you sent me in the sound transmission earlier, is it true?"

"Of course, why would I deceive you, and even if I did, what good would it do? It would only further strain our relationship, wouldn’t it? Tang Ming, take out some Purification Water for Elder Niu to see."

Hu Jiuze turned around and looked at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming nodded, and with a gesture, a bottle of clear water appeared in his hand.

Niu Yingzi accepted the bottle and frowned. This water appeared no different from regular water, she couldn’t even sense any Immortal Energy within it.

"Jiuzhe, you say this water can purify demonized land?"

Niu Yingzi looked at Hu Jiuze with surprise.

Niu Hao approached Niu Yingzi; "Mother, what’s this all about, what is this water?"

"Previously, that Lili girl leaked our family’s secret to Jiuzhe and Tang Ming. But Jiuzhe told me that their goal wasn’t the Niu Family’s blood, but they found another way to purify demonized land. Their method is this water."

Niu Yingzi recapped to Niu Hao as he inquired.

The small living room was thrown into chaos. For the people of the Niu Family, their bloodline and the faith in the Blood God were sacred.

The Niu Family always believed their blood could purify demonized land, a power granted by the Blood God.

Yet, the water Tang Ming casually presented could achieve the same as the holy blood, which the Niu Family members found unacceptable.

"You’re speaking nonsense."

"Indeed, how can this ordinary water purify demonized land!"

"It’s blasphemy against the Blood God."

Several elderly Niu elders stood up and cried out.

If it weren’t for Hu Jiuze’s formidable strength, they would have probably attacked Tang Ming.

Tang Ming coughed and said, "Revered elders of the Niu Family, words alone aren’t convincing. No matter how eloquently I speak, you wouldn’t believe it, would you? There are many demonized lands at Dou Niu Mountain. I see demonized land outside the village; why don’t you try it yourself?"

Tang Ming’s words instantly silenced the Niu family elders, their gazes aligning with the bottle in Niu Yingzi’s hand.

Coughing sounds came from behind the screen in the living room, Niu Yingzi’s eyes sharpened, and she nodded: "Then let’s give it a try."

Tang Ming and Hu Jiuze’s gaze shifted from the screen; behind it, certainly, was someone of formidable power with a status in the Niu family not below Niu Yingzi.

Otherwise, Niu Yingzi wouldn’t have decided just upon hearing a cough.

Actually, Niu Yinghao was also very surprised. After all, in the entire West Desolation, only the blood of the Niu Family could truly restore demonized land to normal.

Because of this, the Niu Family kept this as their highest secret.

If the water Tang Ming provided can truly restore demonized land, it would also be a boon for the Niu Family.

Niu Yingzi took the jade bottle Tang Ming gave her outside to the courtyard, looked at the black demonized land there, and handed the jade bottle to Tang Ming: "You handle it."
