Seduce The Villainess (GL)
Chapter 333 The Hunter Who Killed Immortals (84)
(Secret Headquarters Of The Crimson Demon Sect)
(Hidden Mountain Range)
The voices got louder and louder as Xu Lu hesitated near the entrance to the pool. The runes and writings etched onto the sides of the bowl-shaped structure glowed ominously.
"Don't go in… why would you toss your life away?"
"Just leave this place… there is nothing here for you except death…'
"Remember your promise… you need to be alive to get revenge…"
Revenge…
Yes. That's right… she needed to get revenge but not just that she also needed to fulfil the desires of the original Xu Lu.
She needed to stand out as the brightest star of the young generation.
Show the Holy Sword Sect that they had made the wrong decision by abandoning her to rot away in prison.
She would make them regret.
Xu Lu pursed her lips together in a thin line and bravely stepped forward. The voices were wrong about one thing.
She was not afraid of death.
She had died at least twice before and maybe even more considering that some of her missions were wiped from her memory.
The afterlife was boring.
Life was truly the scary part of existence.
Xu Lu looked down at the murky crimson liquid and took in a deep breath. She could feel her racing heartbeat slowly begin to calm down as she made a decision.
The former saintess walked up to the edge of the bowl and then jumped inside.
She plunged into the pool of blood and immediately a complex array of sensations assaulted her from all directions.
The first thing that she felt was the cold.
Xu Lu possessed an Ice Yin root and rarely felt the effects of low temperatures but somehow in the pool of blood… she felt as though every single inch of her body was freezing.
The liquid clung on to her body like a heavy weighted blanket and dragged her further downwards into the depths.
It was like she was descending to the abyss.
There was an eerie silence as Xu Lu felt goosebumps appear on her arms and legs. She kept holding her breath and was afraid to exhale.
No sound could reach her.
She could only describe the feeling like being engulfed by a cocoon of darkness and emptiness that stretched out for eternity.
Xu Lu shivered as the cold chill penetrated her bones and cause her body to begin to convulse violently.
Every instinct in her body screamed at her to swim upwards and escape from this terrible environment but to her horror Xu Lu discovered that she could no longer move.
Just when she thought that she was going to die from frostbite, the temperature around her body rapidly began to heat up.
The searing heat coursed through her veins like molten lava flowing through the channels of an underground vent.
Xu Lu closed her eyes and when she reopened them, she discovered that she was now standing in the middle of an empty plain.
There was no sky, no stars no clouds.
All that she could see for dozens of miles was a never-ending sea of scarlet grass.
Xu Lu looked around in confusion. Was this the afterlife? Had she died?
No… she would have been transported back to the headquarters of the Time Space Administration, right?
Xu Lu wandered around the plain for what seemed like hours. Time had no meaning in this strange world and seconds felt like days.
Finally, she heard a sound.
"Hello?" Xu Lu called out cautiously as she turned in the direction of the sound and tried to get a good look.
She froze in shock when she saw the creature staring back at her.
A faint blood mist coalesced together to form a shadowy figure that was draped in a cloak that seemed to be woven out of the crimson liquid itself.
Their face was concealed by a baggy hood which concealed all of their features save for their piercing golden eyes which gleamed with intelligence and cruelty in equal measure.
The atmosphere in the strange world immediately changed.
A heavy pressure fell down on Xu Lu's body which brought her to her knees.
She could feel herself being drawn towards this mysterious creature. She got up from the ground and moved towards it with great difficulty.
Step by step she walked slowly while resisting the pressure that threatened to bring her back down to the ground.
Xu Lu did not know why she was doing this, but she kept going…
And going…
And going…
When she was mere inches away from the creature, it extended a skeleton-like hand from its robe and lightly touched her forehead.
A stream of energy was injected into Xu Lu's forehead, and she could feel her mind begin to crack under the influence of this strange sensation.
Suddenly the faint sound of trumpets filled the air and the heavy feeling in her mind slowly eased up until she could think again.
"Blessed already?" the creature whispered in confusion.
Its voice was both masculine and feminine with a low throaty growl as if something was stuck in its throat.
"You are a special one… very special…"
The hooded figure hummed softly under its breath and its eyes gleamed with curiosity and excitement.
"I don't usually like to share but… I think you'll make a fine addition to my sect," the mysterious creature finished its sentence with a low giggle.
Xu Lu screamed as she felt a large surge of energy enter her body with so much force that her skin began to crack.
The hooded figure grinned and then vanished. The strange realm started to crumble, and Xu Lu felt something pulling her away from this place.
The former saintess burst out of the pool with her body completely covered in the crimson liquid and staggered out of the bowl-shaped structure.
She collapsed on the ground just outside the altar and curled up into a ball. The energy flowing through her body was threatening to overwhelm her senses.
It was too much power… she couldn't… no…
"I have… to hold… on…" Xu Lu muttered quietly as she gritted her teeth and tried to ride out the waves of agony that were washing over her body.
Her eyes were completely bloodshot and large horrific wounds opened up across her body as the power rampaged inside of her without stopping.
She drew in deep, ragged breaths as the pain continued for several hours straight.
At one point Xu Lu thought that she fell unconscious because she saw the vague shadow of Camilla standing over her body with a worried expression on her face.
Was that an illusion or a memory from her previous life?
Xu Lu could no longer tell.
Finally, the pain stopped, and Xu Lu stood up from the ground. She gently inhaled and all the wounds on her body immediately began to heal.
She felt… stronger.
No… not just stronger… there was a sense of vitality flowing through her body as if nothing could cause her to die.
The coppery scent of blood filled her nostrils, but Xu Lu did not pay any attention to the bad smell as she reached into her storage bag.
What if…
Xu Lu's fingers trembled as she pulled out a small pocket mirror and held it in her right hand with the surface of the mirror pointed directly at her face.
She used her left hand to grab the corner of her silvery grey mask and with her heart beating uncontrollably…
Xu Lu took off her mask.
