087 The temple is completed, on the eve of the great battle.
"Have you heard? The Temple of the Goddess of Fertility in the Nine Netherworlds is almost finished! Anyone who goes to worship there is guaranteed to conceive within a month!"
"Sigh, I already have three at home, I can't afford to raise them, I'm not going."
"They even gave out a basket of eggs!"
"Is this for real? Let's go together!"
"It won't be finished for another seven days, look at how impatient you are!"
People were coming and going on the street, spreading the news that the Jiuyou Fengzi Niangniang Temple was about to be completed.
Ning Kui, Bai Yingying, Lin Zhou, and Yan Daoren sat around a steamed bun shop, eating meat buns and tofu pudding while listening to the excited discussion at the next table.
This breakfast stall is run by Granny Gui and Lian'er, and they also collect information for Ning Kui.
For the common people who were unaware of the terror of the Ghost Mother, whether or not they could conceive was unimportant; what mattered most was receiving free eggs.
"A bunch of idiots, if they actually went to the temple to pray, they'd definitely get pregnant within a month, and..."
Even if they were born, they would surely be eaten by the demon mother to enhance her magical power.
Lin Zhou snorted coldly. He had been studying the Ghost Mother with Bai Yingying and discussing it with the elders of the Pure Lotus Sect through flying eagles. He had a general understanding of the Great Dao that the Ghost Mother cultivated.
The Demon Mother's supernatural power is called "Demon Child Serving Mother," which allows her to purify her bloodline and enhance her cultivation by devouring demon children who possess her bloodline.
When she reaches the Elephant Realm, her supernatural powers still need to be inherited through the [Ghost Seal] bloodline, so they only apply to the Lin family lineage.
After breaking through to the Dharma Heaven Realm, she will be able to establish her own Great Dao as the supreme law of the entire Fish Valley County.
Women who go to her temple to pray for children will give birth to demons for her to devour.
At that time, the Ghost Mother's cultivation speed will increase by more than a hundred times!
"Yes, even if the people don't want to worship, the temple will force them to. Hundreds of thousands of women will all become its tools for cultivation!"
Bai Yingying also spoke indignantly, her voice filled with righteous indignation.
The thought of her future child with Ning Kui being stolen and eaten by the ghost mother made her feel suffocated with anger.
Ning Kui was unaware that she had thought about things so far in advance; he simply assumed that, being a woman, she would have stronger empathy.
Otherwise, Lin Zhou must be made to express his feelings of heartache.
"Ning Kui, tell me, when should we make our move?" Yan Daoren said, taking a vicious bite of his meat bun.
Ning Kui sighed. He realized that since Li Qijue left, he had become the one who was always sighing.
"The temple will be completed in seven days."
Three days later would be Lin Wenlong's fortieth birthday, and also the day the Ghost Mother would devour him.
I've inquired about it. They'll be holding a birthday banquet for Lin Wenlong in the early morning, a funeral banquet at noon, and a wedding banquet for him and Lin Qimo in the evening.
That day, the Ghost Mother was very busy.
When you're busy, it's easy to make mistakes.
Ning Kui analyzed the situation, and there was one thing he hadn't told anyone: Lin Wenlong's betrayal.
What kind of suffering this man, whose love has turned to hatred, will inflict on the arrogant demon mother will only be revealed in three days.
Most importantly, ten days had passed since he broke through to the minor success stage of the Blood Refining Realm.
Over the course of ten days, he swept through Fangya Mountain and Kunze Lake, using the Blood Spirit Life-Turning Gourd to refine several evil spirits that had managed to escape into Blood Spirit Pills.
He continued to cultivate by consuming pills every day, and was about to break through to the Great Perfection of the Blood Refining Realm.
At that time, the chances of slaying the Demon Mother will be much greater!
"That's settled then. In three days, we'll slay the Demon Mother!"
"Meeting adjourned!"
An important meeting that could change the history of Uotani Prefecture thus came to an end in front of a breakfast stall.
Afterwards, Ning Kui went to the Martial Alliance. With him suppressing everything, the Martial Alliance developed very smoothly.
Not only did they take over the various businesses of the Ding and Zhu families, but the rules they established were also highly respected by the people.
Under his guidance, various industries were given the possibility of people turning their lives around through hard work.
Instead of working themselves to the bone as before, only to earn scraps in return.
The Demon Extermination Martial Arts School was directly transformed into the Demon Extermination Hall, where disciples cultivated the core technique, "Heavenly Demon Extermination Record," and were responsible for actively exterminating evil spirits.
For example, Chen Qi, who had achieved minor success in skin refining, had independently killed two evil spirits at the Qi-eating stage.
One is a ghost knocking on the window, the other is a ghost by the pillow.
They were all female ghosts who preyed on lustful men. Chen Qi killed them, earning widespread praise from the men.
This kid is skilled in practicing evil arts. His cultivation method is derived from the "Tiger Demon Blade" and "White Tiger Skill". When his qi and blood surge, he is quite effective in suppressing evil spirits.
As his master, he paid far less attention to Chen Qi than he did to Xia Chan and Cao Asheng.
Both of them had broken through to the Great Perfection of the Skin Refining Realm and were hailed by busybodies as the first generation of the Martial Alliance's Twin Prodigies.
"Chen Qi, do you resent that your teacher has neglected you?"
Chen Qi knelt on the ground, shaking his head repeatedly: "If it weren't for my master taking me in, I, Chen Qi, would just be a beggar. How could I have achieved what I have today?"
"It's good that you know. Your teacher is busy creating a bright and clear world for Yugu County, and I really can't spare the time."
Although I don't often teach you, I always keep an eye on your progress in martial arts.
Ning Kui poured out a Blood Spirit Pill from the treasure gourd, which was refined by a Core Formation Realm demon beast.
In terms of medicinal properties, it certainly cannot compare to the powerful pill left over from the mythical era that was given to Xia Chan.
But Xia Chan's cicada was earned with her life, so it can't be said that Ning Kui favored one over the other.
"Take this pill; it's enough for you to break through to the Great Perfection of Skin Refinement."
Don't fall too far behind others. If word gets out, you'll ultimately be my disciple, Ning Kui's disciple.
"Thank you, Master! Your disciple will certainly make you proud!"
After taking care of Chen Qi, Ning Kui called Zhou Tiecang and Zhang Qian over.
As vice leaders of the Martial Alliance, one was in charge of the waterway business and the other was in charge of the mountain road business. They each had their own responsibilities and were the two people Ning Kui trusted the most.
"Master Zhou, Master Zhang."
Ning Kui said to the two men, "Don't rush to expand the business these next few days. Secretly send back the martial arts brothers you trust."
This must be done quietly, without making a fuss or attracting the attention of anyone with ulterior motives.
"In a few days, there may be great unrest in Yugu County. The responsibility of protecting the people will be entrusted to you two."
Zhou Tiecang and Zhang Qian exchanged a glance and nodded emphatically in agreement.
They also studied Ning Kui's "The Record of Heaven's Punishment of Evil," and became close friends and mentors to Ning Kui.
Natural selection strongly supports Ning Kui.
After settling matters related to the Martial Alliance, Ning Kui returned to the county government office.
Ever since Yun Mengling caught her having a late-night rendezvous with Bai Yingying that night, this little girl has not backed down at all.
Instead, they became more proactive and positive.
He once cornered Ning Kui in the courtyard and said to him, "Young Master Ning, I've figured it out. If I give the person I love to someone else for nothing, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life."
It's okay if you don't like me now, I'll show you a side of me that's worthy of your affection!
At that moment, Ning Kui was almost ready to accept her courageous confession.
On second thought, he decided to wait until after he had killed the demon mother before considering matters of personal feelings.
However, in the following days, the two put aside their concerns and actually got along quite well.
He returned to the courtyard, where a fierce battle was sure to ensue in three days, with his fate uncertain.
He wanted to give the best to the most important person.
Now, we have no choice but to give it to them in advance.
"Young lady, this Dao Fruit is called [Celestial Phenomenon]. Once you eat it, no matter how chaotic the world becomes, you will have the power to protect yourself."
And this...beauty pill, it has skin-beautifying effects, you should take it too.
Faced with his young mother's worries, Ning Kui could only lie to her that he was escorting a batch of goods on a long journey and that he was afraid she would encounter danger again, so he gave her the Dao Fruit.
After his mistress left, Ning Kui thought it over and over again before walking to Yun Mengling's room and gently knocking on the door.
