After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

The “interesting” matter Su E mentioned was none other than Jiushuang.

Jiushuang, the Nine Heavens Mystic Fox, wanted to escape its fate by burning its body with ghostly fire and refining its soul with nether fire.

Such a matter was very interesting to Su E.

She was eager to see the fox that longed not to forget Jiang Chen, even for a few hours, and wanted to stay by his side according to its own will.

Could it endure the excruciating pain of the ghostly fire and nether fire?

Su E hoped Jiushuang could withstand it.

After all, she was counting on following Jiushuang to find Jiang Chen.

Although she already knew Jiang Chen was in the Jiuyan Sect, she did not know what he looked like.

It was safer to let Jiushuang lead the way.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a month had gone by.

Jiushuang woke up from its slumber.

Its injuries were mostly healed, and its aura had stabilized at the level of a Demon King.

It still remembered that a month ago, an old man had come to invite Su E to join in the attack on the Jiuyan Sect.

Glancing at Su E beside it, Jiushuang wanted to speak out to stop her.

But as it was about to speak, it paused.

It noticed that as its internal injuries healed, the four tails it had lost were faintly showing signs of growing back.

At the same time, its memories were becoming blurry again.

Jiushuang knew that there was no time left.

It had to burn its body and refine its soul quickly, or all its efforts would be in vain.

Jumping down from the black wooden chair, Jiushuang left the great hall and went to an open space outside the ghost city.

“Jiang Chen…”

Muttering this name, it made up its mind.

The next second, a surging ghostly fire erupted from its body, burning every cell, every inch of skin, every bone.

The heart-piercing pain made it wish for death.

But every time it thought of giving up, it would silently recite Jiang Chen’s name and then reveal a hint of blissful smile.

Soon, the ghostly fire consumed its body, leaving only its soul.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The soul was unstable, flickering in and out of existence.

Even so, the four lost tails were still growing rapidly.

Memories continued to fade, so Jiushuang shook its head non-stop, turned to Su E, and said, “Sister Su, help me.”

“It will be very painful,” Su E said seriously.

“Refining the soul with nether fire is essentially turning your soul directly into a ghostly soul.”

As she spoke, she extended a slender finger with a wisp of nether fire on it.

“Go.”

She flicked the fire towards Jiushuang.

“Ahhh!!!”

The next second, Jiushuang screamed in agony.

A tiny wisp of fire caused it to experience indescribable pain.

This pain was far greater than losing its tails or burning its body.

It was a pain from the soul.

“This is just a trace of nether fire. You can still turn back now. I can help stabilize your soul, and if you can find heavenly materials and earthly treasures to rebuild your body, you can still become a Nine Heavens Mystic Fox with white frost fur,” Su E’s solemn voice rang out.

“Don’t forget, your name is Jiushuang. If you become a ghost fox, Jiang Chen might not recognize you,” she added.

“Perhaps…”

Jiushuang gave a pale smile.

Perhaps Jiang Chen really couldn’t recognize her.

Perhaps this was a road of no return, where only death awaited her.

Perhaps in this life, Jiang Chen would no longer name her nor protect her as she grew.

But…

“But sister, I really like him so much.”

“I really don’t want to forget him. Even in death, I don’t wish to.”

“I’ve forgotten Jiang Chen for nine lifetimes, hundreds of times, but he has never blamed me.”

“So in this life… Even if he can’t recognize me, I won’t blame him.”

“Once, I had no choice, but now I do.”

“Even though this choice leads to death, I’m not afraid.”

“Because, at least with this choice, I can die in his arms.”

Jiushuang continued to speak.

Hearing these words, Su E was left speechless.

She asked herself, she did not have the courage of Jiushuang. She could not, like Jiushuang, willingly give up her life just to not forget.

“Sigh.”

After a long, deep sigh, she turned away.

At the same time, a mingling of white and black nether flames burst out from behind her, transforming into a gigantic primordial hand, opening its bloody maw, and directly swallowing Jiushuang.

“Ahhh!!!!”

Trapped within the nether flames, Jiushuang’s screams continued.

Su E knew without looking that at this moment, Jiushuang must be in so much pain that she wished for death.

But those continuous screams proved that Jiushuang had no intention of giving up.

Otherwise, she could simply self-destruct her soul, and although it would scatter her soul to the winds, she would be released from suffering.

The screams persisted for days on end.

Unbeknownst to her, a six-tailed old woman with a body full of deathly aura appeared beside Su E.

Watching Jiushuang in the nether flames, the old woman’s heart was torn with agony. She wanted to speak out and stop her multiple times, but in the end, she remained silent.

“You’re about to die,” Su E said to the old woman.

The old woman nodded.

Her life was coming to an end, with only a few hours left.

Perhaps she wouldn’t even be able to witness Jiushuang’s transformation, rebirth, or even her death.

The old woman sat down cross-legged and closed her eyes.

Clearly, she couldn’t bear to witness the pain Jiushuang was suffering.

“Grandmother…”

As if sensing the old woman’s presence, Jiushuang called out through the severe pain.

“Jiushuang, life and death are predestined, and I have lived long enough,” the old woman spoke with a hoarse voice.

“Grandmother, can I save you?” Jiushuang asked again.

The old woman shook her head.

Lifespan is a cultivator’s shackle, and to break free from it, one needs extremely rare treasures or to continue cultivating upwards.

Even great emperors fall, let alone her?

Moreover, death, for her, was perhaps a release?

The Mystic Fox Clan had offended the Demon Emperor and were imprisoned in this realm.

For a thousand years, she had tried everything to save the Mystic Fox Clan, but she had never imagined that there was no possibility of saving the Mystic Fox Clan.

No matter what choices Jiushuang made, the Mystic Fox Clan couldn’t escape the fate of being eternally suppressed and sealed.

At this moment, she was tired.

She just wanted to wait for death honestly, without struggling anymore. Then help Jiushuang fulfill her only wish.

“Jiushuang, I came to tell you that Jiang Chen is in the Ghost Controlling Sect. If you successfully transform into the Nine Abyss Ghost Fox, go to the Ghost Controlling Sect to find him,” the old woman said.

Ghost Controlling Sect?

Su E blinked in confusion.

Wasn’t it said that Jiang Chen was in the Jiuyan Sect? She was just about to go and snatch him.

“I heard that the Ghost Controlling Sect and the Jiuyan Sect have a very bad relationship,. Hemight have been taken as a hostage,” the old woman speculated.

“Is that so?”

Su E immediately became furious! Who was Jiang Chen?

The good and handsome guy that Jiushuang was risking her life to see! Her chosen Abyssal Consort!

How could he be bullied by others?

“Where are the ghost generals?!” Su E called out immediately.

As her words fell, ghostly winds howled around her, and numerous ghostly figures emerged.

“We are here!”

The ghost generals knelt on one knee, replying in unison.

“Gather the ten thousand ghosts! Once Jiushuang’s soul is refined by the nether flames, I will go to the Ghost Controlling Sect to demand people! Those who block me, kill without mercy!” Su E ordered.

“As you command!”
