"What?" Mei Xue thought she misheard.
"Let me eat you, from head to toe, without leaving anything behind."
The eyes of the Netherworld's Yellow Springs shone with a strange light. The light in the bamboo building suddenly darkened. Even the ancient books became eerie, giving people a cold shiver.
The air in the bamboo building began to fill with a cold ghostly aura.
This was the essence of this library. It was the symbol of the Netherworld's Yellow Springs' heart. When the Netherworld's Yellow Springs was immersed in the beautiful memories of the past, this was a quiet and comfortable library, a place where people could read in peace.
When the Netherworld's Yellow Springs was unable to extricate itself from the urge to eat people, this would be the nest of evil spirits, a land of disaster that devoured life.
"Let me … eat you …" The Netherworld's Yellow Springs' body trembled slightly. Its originally calm eyes began to shine with a frightening light.
It was an incomparably fanatical gaze that would not stop until it achieved its goal. The target of this gaze was Mei Xue, who had transformed into a golden-furred, jade-faced, nine-tailed fox, and appeared in front of the Netherworld.
Danger!
Danger!
For the first time, Mei Xue felt a fatal threat from the Netherworld's Yellow Springs' eyes. This was no joke.
In the next second, the Netherworld's Yellow Springs pounced on her like a ghost. It was so fast that Mei Xue could not react at all.
"Bang!"
The sound of the bookshelf falling, the sound of books falling, and the sound of Mei Xue being pressed to the ground intertwined, breaking the silence of this ancient library.
Among the scattered books, the Netherworld's Yellow Springs' body was completely pressed down on Mei Xue's body. The Netherworld's Yellow Springs' hands were pressed on Mei Xue's heart. A terrifying turbid aura was emitted from her hands, trying to invade Mei Xue's body.
The source of the turbid aura was the "Mandate of Heaven" from the Lord of Mount Tai. It was a forbidden rune that connected to the netherworld and forged an undying ghost body.
Now, it was this rune that invaded her mind while the Netherworld's Yellow Springs body was weak, allowing her to complete the unfinished ritual of "eating Mei Xue".
"No, that's not right. It's not like that."
Seeing that it had reached the final step of success, the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld suddenly stopped, revealing an expression of struggle and pain.
"This … this isn't me!"
Panting heavily, the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld was in even more pain than usual. In her weakened state, it was ten times more difficult for her to suppress her appetite for the golden-furred, jade-faced, nine-tailed fox youth in front of her.
However, no matter how difficult and painful it was, she would never violate that taboo and eat people.
However, it was too late. If she was in her normal state, she might be able to suppress her urge to eat people, but in her weakened state, it was difficult for her to even maintain her consciousness. It was almost impossible for her to continue suppressing this instinct.
"Kill … Kill me …" This was the last wish of the Yellow Springs, and the only way to stop the situation from worsening.
Killing her before she lost control and started eating humans was the only way to stop her.
She didn't want to wait for the urge to eat people in her body to completely go out of control and become ugly before she regretted it.
Rather than that, she would rather die.
The Yellow Springs of the Netherworld's struggle, uneasiness, and despair were all reflected in Mei Xue's heart. It also made him finally understand why the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld's attitude towards him was so strange after he came to this world.
It turned out that she had been suppressing the urge to eat people in her body all this time, enduring the great pain.
How pitiful, how sad, how unfortunate. Did she have to continue like this?
Was there no way to solve the problem?
"There is, Mei Xue." Meng Meng's voice sounded in Mei Xue's heart, opening a door to hope for him.
"What should I do?" Looking at the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld in pain, Mei Xue decided to help her no matter what.
"The method is still the same. Let her voluntarily give her most important thing to Mei Xue. If it's Mei Xue, you will definitely be able to do it. Let her give everything to you willingly."
"Eh, but …" Mei Xue didn't think that there was still a chance to ask the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld for what she wanted. She had obviously lost control now!
"Yes, Mei Xue's words can definitely be heard. It's her true heart."
Meng Meng's voice was unusually firm. Because it was Mei Xue, this was something that only Mei Xue could do.
Mei Xue took a deep breath. Even if it was impossible now, he had to do it.
If there was really something that only he could do, if he could really do something for the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld, it must be the thing that Meng Meng said.
"Yellow Springs, look into my eyes."
Mei Xue reached out his hand and held the pale face of the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld. His eyes were extremely focused and serious.
"I … No …" The Yellow Springs of the Netherworld's eyes were extremely confused. One moment, it was a young girl who was quietly reading books in the library, and the next moment, it was an evil spirit that was driven by destiny to eat people.
However, Mei Xue did see it. He saw the lost girl hidden in the pupils. He knew that she could hear and feel his words.
"Don't be afraid. Leave everything to me. Please believe me." Mei Xue believed in Meng Meng. He also believed that his sincerity could definitely move the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld.
There was no need for any reason, because this was his will.
"Believe you, can I?"
In a trance, the shy girl's voice reverberated in Mei Xue's mind. In the turbid eyes of the Netherworld, Mei Xue, who had transformed into a golden-furred, jade-faced, nine-tailed fox, became clearer and clearer.
"Yes, believe me. Believe that I can create miracles. Believe that I can change everything. As long as you believe and give me the most important thing, then I can save you."
In the eyes of the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld, the face of the beautiful nine-tailed fox became more and more handsome and confident.
This was the innate magical ability of the beautiful nine-tailed fox, "Charm", that appeared automatically in Mei Xue's subconscious. The real "Charm" of the beautiful nine-tailed fox did not need any special conditions to activate.
Because the golden-furred, jade-faced nine-tailed fox itself represented "beauty", people naturally liked beautiful things, not to mention the golden-furred, jade-faced nine-tailed foxes that were so beautiful that they could kill both men and women.
Therefore, even if the nine-tailed fox did not do anything, it would cause countless chaos. It could be said that every nine-tailed fox was a peerless beauty that was born to harm the common people.
As a male nine-tailed fox that had never appeared in history, the lethality of Mei Xue's pose to women was simply at the level of breaking the rules. It was just that he did not realize it at all.
When he unconsciously cast his "charm", Nether Nether, who was inexperienced and had a natural liking for the golden-furred, jade-faced nine-tailed fox, fell for it without any resistance.
"I … I believe you …" Although hesitant and uneasy, the Netherworld still believed in the golden nine-tailed fox.
Because of Qingqiu Jiuyue, because of her only best friend, she was born with no resistance to the golden fox ears and tail. In this despair and uneasiness, the brilliant golden color was too beautiful, too dazzling, like the sun filled with hope.
Therefore, in the end, she chose to believe without reservation. In the last moments of her life, she gave the most important thing to the nine-tailed fox.
If, taking away the most important thing could change this cursed fate.
If, taking away the most important thing could create a miracle.
If, taking away the most important thing could make the darkness that bound her disappear.
Then, just take it. The most important thing that belonged to her, her …
In the dark and secluded space of the bamboo house, a white light flashed. It was a pure, almost transparent light. This light came from the heart of the Yellow Springs of the Netherworld, from her unreserved trust in the blonde, jade-faced, nine-tailed fox boy in front of her.
In the last moments of her life, she gave the most important thing to him, but she did not really expect a miracle to happen.
To her, this light was so brilliant, so beautiful, like a shooting star streaking across the sky.
So beautiful. With such longing, the Netherworld suddenly collapsed, like a puppet that had been emptied. Even the terrifying mandate of heaven could no longer move her.
Because she had taken out the most important thing in her. That was her life, the light condensed from her soul. The brilliant color was the proof of her life.
"Very good, Mei Xue, you did it."
Mengmeng's small figure appeared in front of the light. She stretched out her little hands and embraced the light with a happy expression.
"As expected, Mei Xue is the best."
In Mengmeng's hands, the light condensed bit by bit and finally formed a small heart. It represented the purest feelings of a girl, the most beautiful crystallization of fantasy.
This was the "heart" that was necessary to create a miracle. It was a treasure born from the most straightforward feelings of a girl, and it was also the proof that Mei Xue was trusted and loved.
"Then, I'll leave everything to Mengmeng!"
On Mengmeng's back, a pair of milky white wings stretched out naturally and embraced the heart formed by the soul and life of the Netherworld. Then, it gently embraced the heart into Mengmeng's body.
"At the beginning of chaos, Mengmeng was born and will create everything." Mengmeng pressed her little hands on her chest with a happy expression.
This was her first "birth", the first miracle that she, as "Hongmeng", was about to complete.
Countless spiritual lights shuttled from all directions of the world. This was the hymn of the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the blessing of this world to the new life.
All the laws between heaven and earth were cheering, blessing the new life that was about to come.
"Mei Xue, Mengmeng is about to be a mother. Bless Mengmeng."
