Chapter 164: Mouyu Village – Old Grudge
Lu Li suddenly had an idea and said, “If I help you deal with him, how are you going to thank me?”

Lan Tong: “That’s what you should do. How can you be so shameless as to ask for repayment?”

“…”

Rough words are not rough.

If Lan Tong doesn’t get a good rest because of the snake demon, her actions in the dungeon will be affected, and Lu Li will have to replace her. But in this case, the threat posed by Lu Li’s madness will directly affect the progress of the two in the dungeon.

Lan Tong didn’t care whether Lu Li agreed or not, she went straight into the space, fell on the sofa and prepared to sleep.

When Lu Li saw Lan Tong, his eyes brightened up.

It was like a child seeing some new toy. Even though they hadn’t seen each other for just one day and the teeth marks from yesterday were still on Lu Li’s face, she couldn’t resist her curiosity and secretly crawled to Lan Tong’s side.

He didn’t do anything, just stared at her with a curious look.

Lan Tong naturally heard her noise, but she was too lazy to care. She just wanted to go to sleep quickly.

Lu Li stared at her for a while and saw that Lan Tong was about to fall asleep, so he poked her shoulder out of boredom.

“Hey, Lan Tong, I’ll help you deal with that snake demon. Don’t fall asleep yet. Come play games with me for a while.”

“No time.”

Lan Tong hugged the pillow and tried to cover her ears with it.

Lu Li reached out and pulled the pillow over. She had been idle in the space for a whole day and could not sit still any longer.

“Then let’s fight again? I’m getting bored to death. The games and movies you downloaded are not fun.”

Lan Tong was extremely annoyed. She didn’t sleep well yesterday, nor did she sleep well at noon today. She was finally about to fall asleep when she was woken up by Lu Li.

She kind of wants to kill someone.

“Come back to me after you’ve dealt with the snake demon.”

“Play with me first…”

“Don’t bother.”

“…”

Lu Li was afraid that Lan Tong would turn against him if the quarrel continued, so he had to stand up and said, “It’s a deal, I’ll wake you up when I’m done, don’t deny it.”

The only response she got was a sneer from Lan Tong.

……

Enter the dream again.

Lu Li woke up from being tied up. She struggled for a few times but found that she couldn’t get free, so she simply burned the ropes and climbed up.

Looking around the cave, she saw a man wearing ancient wedding clothes sitting not far away.

Lu Li sat on the bed like a big shot, crossed his legs and shouted, “Hey, the one sitting there, you’re the one who bullied my little brother Lan Tong, right?”

The man not far away slowly raised his head when he heard the voice.

He stared at Lu Li with a strange expression for a few seconds, then touched his chin in confusion.

“you are?”

Lu Li was stunned, feeling like she was being fooled and she was furious.

“You asked Lan Tong to replace me, and now you’re pretending not to know me?”

Not only was she angry, she also felt a little inexplicably suffocated, and she was eager to try.

This snake demon must be very powerful. If I could fight with him, it would be a good way to entertain myself for a while.

The man’s eyes paused, and he stared at her with an unusually cold look.

“It’s not you I’m looking for.”

“Whether it’s me or not, I’m here now.”

Lu Li stood up, clenched his fists uncontrollably, and once again showed that familiar smile that had not been seen for a long time.

“Stop talking nonsense and let’s have a fight.”

The man sensed Lu Li’s hostility, stood up and took a defensive stance, and asked: “Let me ask you a question first, do you have three souls in this body?”

“No, stop talking nonsense.” Lu Li took out a long knife and attacked the man fiercely.

The man dodged very quickly.

The bench he was sitting on was chopped into several pieces by Lu Li.

Just as he was about to speak again, Lu Li rushed over again.

The man did not fight back, but kept dodging and repeating: “Answer my question first!”

“I said, no.”

As soon as Lu Li finished speaking, another round of all-round attack began.

After several rounds of attacks, Lu Li chopped several pieces of the snake demon’s wedding dress, but he did not prepare to fight back. Instead, he stubbornly insisted on the original question.

“No, neither you nor she is the one I’m looking for, so there must be another soul in this body.”

Lu Li put away the knife in displeasure. She had realized that the man in front of her would never fight back until he understood the problem.

Instead of wasting time with him here, it would be better to finish it quickly and go back to fight Lan Tong.

At least every punch from Lan Tong hit her hard.

“You just say who you want to find in this body.”

The man stood straight, his face grim, and his voice was chilling to the bone when he spoke.

“I’m looking for Lady Amaterasu.”

Lu Li suddenly stopped playing with the knife, his eyes were like a ferocious beast, and in an instant the aura around him became serious and cold.

“What did you say?”

Why…why did this snake demon in front of her know her name when she was in the Heavenly Realm?
“Don’t play dumb, you know where she’s hiding, right?”

The man sneered and looked at Lu Li with a teasing look in his eyes.

He concluded that Lu Li was playing dumb. How could someone be so stupid as to come up and start a fight without saying a word? Didn’t Lu Li know that he was the leader of the monsters in this copy?

Lu Li’s expression suddenly became a little complicated: “Do you have anything to do with…her?”

The man said, “It has nothing to do with you. You just need to tell me where that ungrateful woman is. Is she afraid to see me so she asked you to come?”

“What do you mean by ungrateful?” Lu Li was a little confused.

She had no memory of the big monster in front of her. When she climbed up step by step from the copy, she had never seen such a strange snake monster.

“Don’t pretend. Unless you let her come to see me, you can’t leave this copy.”

“Does she know you?”

“I can’t recognize anyone more than I already knew him.”

The murderous intent in the man’s eyes finally began to roll with hatred at this moment, and he said sarcastically: “If she hadn’t taken my contaminated core away, would I have spent so many years climbing up step by step to where I am now?”

Lu Li was really confused now.

The pollution core is the internal energy source used by the monsters and big demons in the black cloud to store the power of pollution. It can also be understood as the inner elixir in the body of a cultivator. If a big demon or a monster loses its pollution core, it is equivalent to having its inner elixir dug out, losing all the power of pollution, and becoming a waste that cannot absorb pollution.

Things like snatching contaminated cores… sounds really vicious.

First of all, she was sure that she didn’t do it.

Secondly, this sounds like something Lan Tong would do.

But Lan Tong had no memory of the past, and Lu Li was not sure whether it was Lan Tong who did it or she did it before her soul was split and she lost her memory.

“When was your contaminated core taken away?”

“Haha.” The man laughed grimly. “It happened nearly a thousand years ago. Do I still need to count the days and record them clearly?”

A thousand years.

Lu Li estimated that the time from when she was a great demon in the dungeon to when she entered the strange world must not have been as long as a thousand years, but only about four hundred years at most.

That seemed to be a long time ago, before she lost her memory.

I would like to declare that I chose the word “Amaterasu” purely because I thought it was suitable and nice to hear, and it has nothing to do with any other factors. After all, we cannot use the name of an ancient god, as it seems disrespectful… If you mind, you can actively comment on the name you think is suitable, but because of the pitfall in the previous part, it must start with the word “天”. I will consider changing it, but it is not certain. I feel that this name is quite good and there is no need to change it. Don’t take too much into a novel. Thank you.
