Chapter 25: The Edge of Crisis
The locust blossoms have already bloomed blood-colored petals, like a variant of cherry blossoms, fluttering and falling into the flowing stream. The water of the stream was also dyed red......
"Hmph......" Under the locust tree, a woman in red smiled with a blood-colored oil-paper umbrella, and a pair of fox eyes were very moving.
It turned out that it was not a variant of flowers, but the blood of a woman, the butterfly dance.
The night was thick, like cold blood flowing from a rotting corpse, covering the sky and the earth.
The moon hovered lonely over the locust tree, its light dim, like the tears in the corners of the woman's eyes, containing resentment......
No—these are tears, tears of butterfly dance, tears of all abandoned souls!
Listen......
"Lord...... Why...... Why don't you need me...... I'm trying so hard...... The pen fairies who are worse than me have been recognized by you, why should you ...... I don't know......" A woman with a pale face stood in front of Butterfly Dance and wept, her red eyes were like two bloody holes, and her head was draped in blood-colored gray veils, like her broken heart.
"Sadako, you, too, saw it. Even if it is a blood-colored locust flower, there will be a day when it falls...... Isn't that the case with demons? Human beings, their desires are too strong...... I like the new and hate the old. Hmph, who wouldn't be abandoned?" As soon as Butterfly Dance spoke, Sadako was stunned at first, and then raised her head to look at Butterfly Dance in front of her. In the light of the moon, a terrifying face was revealed.
"It's just that I'm not convinced, why was I expelled from the ghost clan?" Sadako's tone was a little unconvinced, "I'm clear—"
"You know for yourself that if you kill the Long-Tongued Ghost, you can only be eliminated!" Butterfly Dance roared, "You know what? Because of your impulsiveness, not only did you harm the Long-tongued Ghost, but you also almost killed the Pen Fairy. If it weren't for the Grim Reaper's timely passage of evil qi to her, would you still be alive until now?"
Sadako is silent, she now hates the pen fairy, hates the god of death, and hates the long-tongued ghost......
The corners of Butterfly Dance's mouth hooked up a smile, "Do you want to make a deal?"
"What?"
"Take revenge on the ghost clan with me, and when the ghost clan is destroyed, I will give you a charm that you can do without fear of the exorcist, you can do whatever you want without restraint," Butterfly Dance smiled, "How about it?"
Sadako pondered for a while, "Okay, what am I going to do?"
"Simple. Butterfly Dance clapped her hands, walked up to a little demon with her head down, handed Butterfly Dance something with both hands, and then hurriedly retreated.
Sadako looked at it, and what the little demon presented was the demon clan's holy relic, the melon petal cup.
The melon petal cup, shaped like a half-cut gourd, separates the melon petal with a dense and symmetrical ripple, and the melon is the handle, and the handle is decorated with flowers and leaves and carved a flower, and the cup is carved with verses.
"My demon clan holy relics are mixed with ghost blood, which can open the door to the connection of the four realms, and I can borrow it from you. Butterfly Dance handed the melon cup to Sadako, who nodded and disappeared......
The battle of the four clans is about to begin......
