Xiao Xiangwei stared in shock as the strand of pure blood drilled into the bell.

  What does it mean for a head of Vermilion Bird's essence blood to be wrapped around?

  The best Jingdan method requires at least five or more Wu Miao washing and refining practices, or a single treasure that can suppress the entire county.

  This is an achievement that no one else in Qingzhou has had for many years.

  But...

  Xiao Xiangwei looked at the little girl with a complex expression.

  As expected, Lin Baiwei stared at Ling Tong in a fluster: "I didn't mean it that way."

  Before she could continue explaining.

  "I know."

  Shen Yi slowly got up and calmly said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry."

  A jade-like martial artist with a full and round body, no matter how hard he tries, can't change anything.

  “……”

  Lin Baiwei didn't want to be so familiar with the young man for the first time, so that when he said only half of what was on his mind, she could immediately understand the other half that was left unspoken.

  "Anything else?"

  Shen Yi walked up to her and looked at the little girl who was burying her head in silence, suddenly reached out and rubbed her head: "Don't be pretentious."

  Although he thought the other's solo journey to Beiyao was a bit foolish, he still appreciated the clever and resourceful girl from back then, who said "Call me Master, I'll help you enter the beginner's realm, how about that?" despite being on the brink of death.

  Strive to survive and make this life useful in places where it is more needed.

  Rather than arguing for a moment's breath and doing something as meaningless as chasing after others.

  "Ah."

  Lin Baiwei was struck by lightning, her whole body stiffened and sat on the bed, feeling a bit dizzy in her head.

  "He's gone."

  Shen Yi walked out of the house with big strides.

  Xiao Xiangwei gazed enviously at the young girl from the Lin family, then suddenly reacted: "It's so late, where are you going?"

  "General Chen asked me to take a trip to Linjiang County when I have time, and bid farewell to General You on my behalf."

  Shen Yi recalled the conversation he had heard from the two lion heads earlier, and as the Demon-Suppressing General of Linjiang Prefecture, it was also time for him to return and pay his respects to Old Man Chen.

  Until the young man transformed into a gentle breeze and disappeared in the courtyard.

  Xiao Xiangwei reluctantly withdrew her gaze, only to find Lin Baimei still sitting stupidly on the edge of the bed. She couldn't help but smile: "Still want to change the dressing?"

  "Uh-huh!" The little girl nodded vigorously.

  ……

  Outside Qingzhou, there are towering mountains and steep ridges.

  Among the undulating mountains, countless birds and beasts are flying and running.

  Two figures strolled through the forest, both wearing fish-scale armor. The one on the left had a pale face and no beard, with an elephant-like trunk hanging down to his abdomen. The one on the right had withered hair and was a wolf demon that looked somewhat old and thin.

  They walked up to a waterfall that looked ordinary and unremarkable.

  The wolf demon stood still, the elephant demon standing behind it, and calmly said: "The howling moon demon king has come to visit, please ask the little demon king to meet him."

  The mountains occasionally echo with a few birdsong.

  The Moon Howling Demon King was not impatient at all, but rather extremely patient, waiting with his hands behind his back.

  At last, the waterfall slowly parted, revealing a wet and smooth stone cave.

  A towering Ox Demon sat inside, its muscles bulging with a mighty knot, giving people an overwhelming sense of oppression.

  He indifferently looked outward, with a hint of wariness in his copper bell-like eyes: "How interesting, coming to find me while I'm recovering from my injuries, this should be the first time. I'd like to know what you want to do?"

  The old wolf demon smiled and shook his head, then walked into the cave.

  Its body shape is much shorter than the small Yao Wang, sitting down on the stone platform at will: "The small Yao Wang does not need to worry, this king did not come this time with any intention of doing anything, just simply wanting to remind you of a sentence."

  "What's the reminder?" Niu Mo looked down at it.

  "Let me remind you, due to this matter, I have lost a great general. In order to appease the old dragon of Yangchun River, I even gave away extremely precious treasures as compensation for its three deceased brothers."

  The Moon Demon King sneered, revealing his yellowing teeth: "I know you want to prove that you're not weaker than Jiang Qiulian, but you've tried too many times already. Each time requires me to use the lives of my subordinates as a guarantee for you."

  As soon as this was said, Niu Mo slowly narrowed his eyes, and a hint of playfulness crept into his tone: "Old thing, are you blaming me?"

  It knew that the other side had been silently contributing a lot, but it absolutely could not accept such questioning.

  "How dare you!"

  A demon god's emotions surged forth like a forest of coldness, and he suddenly took a step forward.

  Under Niu Mo's feet, the old dog on its last breath opened its eyes and coldly stared at Xiang Yao, saying in a hoarse voice: "Get back."

  The Moon Howling Demon King stretched out his hand, interrupting the gaze between the two: "Little Demon King misunderstood, I just wanted to advise you that advancing your realm is also a part of your strength, no need to discuss fairness with that woman every time."

  The old wolf is tamed at last.

  The attitude of the Bull Demon relaxed a bit: "After I recover from my injuries, breaking through will be just a matter of time. When that happens, I'll eliminate your greatest threat for you, and this king won't touch your land. I only want Qingzhou."

  Xiao Yue worried that Jiang Qiulang's breakthrough would bring a counterattack from the entire Qingzhou.

  This old demon has long lost its vitality and only seeks a peaceful life.

  I heard he doesn't even care about his own woman.

  "Then I'll have to trouble Little Demon King."

  The Moon Demon King's eyes were filled with fatigue, and he had obtained the Ox Demon's promise. He seemed to have let out a sigh of relief: "In that case, I'll give you a small gift as a token of gratitude. This brother is doomed to die anyway, and we're considered kin. Let me take him back to nourish him with my own blood, and spare his life."

  Upon hearing this, the dog demon's eyelids twitched, seemingly somewhat apprehensive.

  The little demon king hesitated slightly, but after glancing at the subordinate who had been injured by the Xuanbing Seven Slaughter Sword and was now a bloody mess, he thought about how this person had escorted him all the way from his home to Qingzhou, with unwavering loyalty and not a single word of complaint.

  Although feeling a loss of face, he still couldn't help but feel some sympathy: "Thank you."

  "Monster king!" The old dog struggled to get up.

  "Don't worry about me, just focus on nursing your wounds." The little demon king sighed and coldly scolded.

  Xiang Yao stepped forward and reached out to support the dog demon, who grasped the long spear in his hand but had no choice but to obey orders.

  Xiao Yue got up and walked out of the cave, turning back to look at it deeply: "Trouble is coming soon... time is running out."

  The Niu Mo's expression turned cold again: "Don't waste the little goodwill I have left for you."

  Until the three figures gradually walked away, she closed her eyes again, and the vast waterfall slowly converged.

  After a long time, on the bluestone outside the waterfall.

  The petite maid slowly revealed her figure.

  The hundreds of years of silence in Ah Qiong's heart finally burst forth with intense waves.

  Tension inevitably surged onto her delicate face.

  Even in a dream, I wouldn't have dared imagine such a thing, yet it's now unfolding so effortlessly before my eyes.

  Even Ah Qian appeared momentarily stunned.

  The little demon king with serious injuries...

  This is probably the biggest harvest for the demon catcher of Qingzhou in many years.

  She struggled to control her emotions, her fingertips quickly pinched the incantation, and strands of scattered breath gathered in her palm.

  Until it coagulates into a cluster of jumping sparks.

  Ah Qiong poured her breath into the golden bell, turned around and re-launched the Turtle Breath Technique and Phantom Shape Method, quietly disappearing on the spot.
