Volume 2, Chapter 155 – Mother, Don’t You Love Bamboo Mama?

Qu Qingtang stared blankly at the fox beauty before her.

Her face was full of cold smiles, showing no trace of that obedient, docile wife appearance from before.

She felt somewhat dazed.

Everything before had been a dream…

So when exactly had this dream begun?

When did the little fox completely accept Qu Qingtang?

Was it after being violated by Song Shiyuan?

No… that was just the beginning. The moment she truly accepted her was later.

“It was that night!” Qu Qingtang’s voice was hoarse. “It was when you let me mark you…!!”

“Yes… because the Pure Yang mark suppressed your heat period, it allowed your cultivation to recover.”

Lu Zhuxin was still smiling.

“But… this isn’t right!” Qu Qingtang said, “How did you do it?!”

“Even an Eighth Realm fox demon couldn’t perform an illusion capable of deceiving a Venerable Saint!”

“Moreover… you don’t even know illusion techniques! How did you deceive me?”

“And how did you poison me?!”

Qu Qingtang couldn’t understand. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.

She had been careful enough… Knowing that Ming Zhaoxi in the original text had been captured due to poisoning, Qu Qingtang had tried her best to avoid such situations.

She had carefully inspected everything that entered her mouth, carefully avoiding anything resembling medicine.

Even after confirming the little fox’s feelings, Qu Qingtang had never relaxed her vigilance in this regard.

Moreover, as a Venerable Saint’s body, transcendent and refined, ordinary poisons couldn’t possibly affect a Venerable Saint.

Of course, what was even more inexplicable was that dream realm.

Among the fox clan, the highest cultivation was only the Eighth Realm Fox Monarch. How had Lu Zhuxin managed to create a dream realm capable of deceiving a Venerable Saint?

And how had she forcibly pulled her into the dream realm?

“Are you feeling strange, Qu Qingtang?” Lu Zhuxin laughed softly. “You avoided all suspicious items, checked all food that entered your mouth, yet why did you still fall for it?”

“The reason is very simple. There was one thing you didn’t check, Qu Qingtang.”

Qu Qingtang looked at Lu Zhuxin with incomprehension.

Lu Zhuxin continued, “That thing is me! My dear Qintang.”

Qu Qingtang looked at Lu Zhuxin, her eyes first showing confusion, then revealing shock.

“It seems you’ve realized it, Qintang…” Lu Zhuxin continued, “The drug that made you fall into slumber is called Intoxicated Life, Dreaming Death.”

“Yes, you’re thinking correctly. It’s that fragrance essence added to the pool water that night.”

“You checked that essence and confirmed it had no problems.”

“However, ‘Intoxicated Life, Dreaming Death’ was originally a poison compound made of two special drugs.”

Lu Zhuxin extended her hand to point at the pool water soaking Qu Qingtang. “This is ‘Intoxicated Life.'”

“As for ‘Dreaming Death’…”

Lu Zhuxin raised her hand and gently pressed it against her own neck, where the fox demon’s Rain Dew acupoint was located, where the Pure Yang mark was imprinted.

“‘Dreaming Death’ is right here.”

Qu Qingtang looked at Lu Zhuxin, her eyes filled with astonishment.

“I’ve never heard of such a poison.”

Never mind Qu Qingtang, even Ming Zhaoxi had never heard of such a poison.

“This poison comes from the ancient Bliss Demon Sect.”

“Of course, Intoxicated Life, Dreaming Death itself has no toxicity. It only makes people indulge in beautiful dreams.”

“But now, Qintang, you should be feeling it.”

Lu Zhuxin cupped her own small face with both hands.

“That passion constantly blooming and surging within your flower core.”

“That impulse almost evaporating your reason.”

“Being familiar with Ming Zhaoxi, you should understand what poison you’ve been afflicted with, right?”

Qu Qingtang naturally understood. If the Bliss Demon Sect could create poison specifically targeting high-level fox demons, then naturally they could also create poison specifically targeting high-level sword cultivators.

Then earlier, when Qu Qingtang awakened from the dream realm, the stinging pain she felt was…

She had never imagined that the Bliss Demon Sect’s poison would have such a strong effect on a Venerable Saint.

“Lu Zhuxin… I admit I underestimated you,” Qu Qingtang’s voice was deep.

“However, you in your self-confidence also made a mistake, a huge mistake.”

“Mm?” Lu Zhuxin tilted her head slightly, her eyes forming a question mark.

“You’ve underestimated a Venerable Saint too much!” Qu Qingtang said.

“Do you think that with just this kind of thing, you can control a Venerable Saint?”

“Moreover, as the Creator, haven’t you heard this saying?”

“Villains die from talking too much!”

Qu Qingtang suddenly raised her hand and rose gracefully. The runic chains on her body snapped layer by layer.

The “Intoxicated Life” pool water that had been soaking her evaporated in an instant.

The Venerable Saint’s cultivation was fully displayed at this moment.

Qu Qingtang suddenly struck at Lu Zhuxin. She reached for Lu Zhuxin’s neck.

The Creator couldn’t die. She couldn’t kill Lu Zhuxin.

But right now, Qu Qingtang just wanted to say, to hell with the conquest! To hell with heavenly fate!

She just wanted to catch this smug little fox.

Then press her down and teach her a harsh lesson, just like she had done during those ten years in the dream, letting her know who was the dominant wife.

However, the moment Qu Qingtang grasped Lu Zhuxin’s neck, the person before her changed.

She became an eight or nine-year-old little girl with a pair of fluffy fox ears.

She was looking at Qu Qingtang with tearful eyes.

“Mother… what are you doing? Mother…” The little fox sobbed softly, jade pearls rolling down. “Are you going to kill Zhenzhen?”

Qu Qingtang’s eyes showed shock. Her strangling wrist instantly froze.

“Zhenzhen?”

This was Qu Qingtang and Lu Zhuxin’s daughter, Qu Zhenzhen.

She was Qu Qingtang’s most beloved and cherished eldest daughter.

“No! That’s wrong!”

“There is no Qu Zhenzhen at all! I never had a daughter with Lu Zhuxin… That was just a dream realm! False illusions!”

Qu Qingtang frantically pushed away the “Qu Zhenzhen” before her.

“Mother… why?”

“…Why kill Zhenzhen?”

Rеaⅾ оn КаtReαdіոgСαfе

Qu Zhenzhen looked at Qu Qingtang with a pale little face, the color rapidly draining from her face.

Her face still bore traces of terror. She reached up to touch her own neck, where there was a circle of purple-blue strangulation marks.

“Why… Mother… why…”

She seemed to accuse and weep, miserably questioning Qu Qingtang.

“No! You’re just a dream realm, a phantom!”

Qu Qingtang roared.

Though she clearly knew it was a false phantom, when she saw her most beloved eldest daughter displaying a death appearance before her, Qu Qingtang could still feel her heart flutter.

“Mother… you killed elder sister…”

“Are you going to kill Tiantian too?”

Second daughter Qu Tiantian held a fox-tail doll, looking at Qu Qingtang with a terrified little face.

Qu Qingtang felt her hand tremble slightly.

Not just second daughter Qu Tiantian.

There was also third daughter Qu Mingming and fourth daughter Qu Lanlan.

“Mother… why are you abandoning us…”

“Wuu… Mother… why are you so heartless…”

“What did we do wrong?”

“Mother… don’t you love us anymore?”

“Don’t you love Bamboo Mama at all?”

Qu Qingtang’s breathing hitched. She took a deep breath and shouted angrily, “Lu Zhuxin! Have you made enough of a scene?!”
