34: Purifying The Evil

Once the ingredients were tossed into the blood pool and the Formation Array was completed, Li Fei began the concoction right away.

With this sheer amount of blood, Li Fei would be able to concoct 5 Third Revolution Yin Yang Blood Pills at most. Thanks to that idiot's Demonic Heart, the purification process would be very arduous!

"Xiao Long, lower the temperature. We need to slowly detoxify the blood from the Demonic Qi, or the Yin Qi will be evaporated by your flame."

The little jade dragon lowered the intensity of her flame, gliding lazily while circling the pool until the virgins' blood boiled gently. Before long, the weeping souls of those innocent women gradually ceased once they learnt Li Fei's good intention to help them pass onto the afterlife and enter the Circle of Samsara.

When the virgins' blood had been purified from the foul Demonic Qi, the souls of those innocent women were also purified by the ritual.

"Is it enough, Master?" Inquired the jade dragon.

"Yes. Proceed to the second phase. Increase your flame by two notches to eliminate any impurities and the debris."

"Understood!"

The jade-green flame was ablaze around the pool, the once crimson blood gradually turned black as the impurities in the blood began to crumble into nothing but fine dust particles and ebb away into the thin air.

Soon thereafter, what was left from the blood was Pure Yin Qi that floated in the air. Before the Yin Qi withered, Xiao Long divided it into five smaller sections and encased them with her Yang Qi. Xiao Long, as a dragon, was not a male or female so she has both types of Qi in her lithe frame. However, after millennia living alongside humans, she finds it more comfortable to assume herself as a female.

With that having been done, the Third Revolution Yin Yang Blood Pills were finished. The weeping souls of the women were happy and passed onto the afterlife after placing a gentle kiss to Li Fei's cheeks one after another.

Afterward, his Brothel System rang again in his head.

[You have obtained 5.000 Satisfaction Points for helping the innocent souls to pass onto the afterlife]

Li Fei, however, didn't feel any satisfaction nor gratification from it. As a cultured man and a professional 'wooer' who loves to put a smile on every woman's face that he met, his heart ached upon realizing how brittle and fragile women's lives are in the world where the strong oppress the weak. Everything could be justified as long as ones have the power and strength to do whatever they wished.

"Hmph!" Li Fei snorted. Holding onto the freshly concocted black and white blood pills in his hands.

Before long, hundreds of footsteps were heard from the tunnel behind him. Li Fei put the blood pills into his Spatial Ring and turned around. Xiao Long promptly re-entered his spear to hide.

Tang Yu and Yulan have returned from the surface, bringing the clean up crews. Those buffoons were agape upon witnessing the dozens of upside down dead women chained onto the ceiling.

"What in tarnation is this?!" Said one of Tang Yu's henchmen. Some of the others were simply puked their guts out.

"Bring them down and cremate their bodies." Li Fei said to Tang Yu. His heart was still heavy with the beguilling emotions.

"Understood, Master Peng Lao." Tang Yu nodded. "You heard him. Treat them with respect."

"Yes, boss!"

Afterward, Li Fei sent his Spiritual Sense outward and detected more women hidden deeper into the tunnel. He then simply left Tang Yu and the others to their machinations. Yulan also felt the faint signs of the survivors and promptly followed two steps behind him.

Once they arrived in a long hallway with doors on either sides, Yulan coughed a few times due to the horrid stench in the air. Li Fei didn't even bother to knock the doors and simply told Xiao Long who had possessed the spear to pry them open.

Dead bodies of innocent women simply laid there to rot. Some of them even had big bellies. They couldn't withstand the torture while being pregnant, bit their wrists and bleed to die.

Their souls had turned into wraiths, no salvation awaits them in the afterlife. They were incinerated into nothingness as Li Fei used his Spiritual Sense to burn them.

Xiao Long lit up two flame orbs to illuminate their footsteps. Li Fei couldn't help but to apologize to the little dragon for using her as a walking lamp later by providing her with a lot of headpats and millennium old herbs.

They keep walking forward into the dark tunnel. Notwithstanding the horror before their eyes until they eventually arrived at the final room where Li Fei detected signs of life from there.

Li Fei break the Formation Array with ease with his Nascent Soul Spiritual Sense. His face was indifferent as he swung the door. Three more young women huddled together in the corner. Scrawny, as if their skins were attached directly to the bones. They were alive, but not quite. Their eyes were devoid of any lights. It was a miracle that they were still alive up to this point.

He brandished the spear in his hand, ready to relieve those young women from misery.

"Wait!" Yulan hugged him from behind. "There's must be another way to safe them!"

"You might regret it later." Li Fei said. He loowered his spear. "Let's say that we helped them. Would they thank us later and not resent us for saving their lives?"

"At least, let me try something first. If there's a sliver will to live within their souls, I should be able to imprint them!"

Li Fei sighed a long breath. "Fine. Let's do this your way."

"Thank you!" Yulan stood on her toes and briskly kissed him on the lips.

Yulan brought one of the young women in her embrace. She peeled their eyes open and sent her Spiritual Sense into their minds, looking for the little soul before the flame went out completely.

'Please! Show me something! I know you are there! Come out, I will not hurt you. It's safe now.'

The imprinting process shows no sign of progress whatsoever. Yulan began to resigned. However, her unyielding determination would not let her stop. Even if she had to deplete her Spiritual Sense.

As her nose began to bleed, the young women in her embrace showed a sign of life in her eyes.

"Mmhhh…"

Yulan burst into tears almost immediately and hugged the young women even tighter

"Thanks heaven!"
