Chapter 98 Seems to be in trouble "You eat too!" Ruan Xing handed Cai Wen a pair of chopsticks, and the latter sat down with fear and trepidation, looking at the Demon Lord Fairy on the table, and then at Ruan Xing. If you look at their appearance with the naked eye, they are indeed no different from ordinary people, but Cai Wen and Cai Jiao were almost inseparable before, and he soon noticed the inharmonious aura of the other two people at the table. More importantly, when the Demon Lord opened his lips to swallow, he saw faint traces of sutures inside his mouth. With a complicated and somewhat unbelievable expression, he asked Ruan Xing in a low voice: "These two... too?" Ruan Xing knew what he was thinking as soon as he turned his thoughts, and then nodded and said, "Yes, but the situation is not the same as Gillian's." "Oh, I see." Cai Wen lowered his head, as if thinking about something. The fairy also saw Cai Jiao sitting next to Cai Wen with a dull look in her eyes. She frowned and looked as cold as ice. "Didn't you say that he and I were your first time?" "No, fairy, what you said is a bit ambiguous..." Ruan Xing waved her hands quickly, "It is true that you two are my first time, I didn't lie to you, kid, I can explain it." The fairy looked at her with a questioning look in her eyes. Ruan Xing continued, "Didn't I say before that I got this puppet technique by accident? It's related to an old Taoist who practices evil magic. The old Taoist kidnapped children in the city by deception or robbery and made several puppets. This little girl was one of the victims. Later, the old Taoist offended me and I killed him. I searched for the technique from him, and I took over all the puppets he made. Look, this is the child's grandfather. After I found out, I sent the child back to him."
After listening to this, the fairy closed her eyes. After a few seconds, she said, "Okay, you didn't lie." She explained: "The skills I practice can identify other people's hidden emotions and malice. Your emotional fluctuations just now were normal and you had no ill will towards me, so you didn't lie." "Ha, you're still using the same old tricks. You're not accurate at all in using this thing to distinguish between good guys and bad guys." The Demon Lord laughed out loud. The fairy retorted seriously, "No, it's very accurate." The Demon Lord raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Then test me, do I have any ill will towards you?" The fairy hesitated for a moment and said, "...No. But there was one before." "The past was the past, and the present is the present. I lied to you before, am I lying to you now?" "I have been deceived. You just lied to me that ghosts and gods can know the taste of human beings by eating incense, and you tricked me into eating after letting me burn three incense sticks..." "Okay, stop, stop." The Demon Lord interrupted her awkwardly, "No need to go into details, so you didn't detect that I was lying just now, right? Then your technique is not accurate." "...It seems so." The fairy fell into deep thought after hearing this. Seeing this, the Demon Lord smiled smugly again. Ruan Xing listened to the two big guys bickering like elementary school students, and took another bite of the meatball speechlessly. Cai Wen finally finished thinking, and seeing Ruan Xing's awkward expression, he said, "I have a request..." Ruan Xing was waiting for the next words when Cai Wen suddenly got up from the stool and knelt on the ground. She choked and quickly helped the man up, "No, let's talk it over. There are so many people outside." Fortunately, as a big customer who ordered a table full of spiritual food, their private room separated by a screen is quite large, and the screen also blocks the view, otherwise people would see an old man in his seventies kneeling in front of a little girl and think she was bullying others. Cai Wen bowed solemnly and said, "Master Ruan, please do me a favor. I want to entrust my daughter to you." "Ah?" Ruan Xing was surprised. "You have already reached the eighth level of Qi training. Building a foundation won't be too difficult. After building a foundation, your life span can be extended to 200 years. There is plenty of time in the future. With the Soul-Nourishing Tree, Ah Jiao will gradually regain consciousness. Why entrust her to me?" "Boss Ruan, you are willing to think of me and give such a precious soul-nourishing wood to Nannan. It must be because I am useful to you. I entrust Nannan to you. First, because my master hates her and I cannot always bring her with me. Second, Nannan is my only weakness. Only if you accept her will you trust me. Third, Nannan is in her current situation. I believe that it is much better for her to stay with you than with me."
Cai Wen finished his three points in a clear and logical manner, and at the end he looked at the other two big guys at the table. Ruan Xing held her chin and hesitated for a moment. Accepting Cai Jiao as a puppet would not affect her at all. She would not treat Cai Jiao in every detail like Cai Wen did. Anyway, Cai Jiao had no mind and no strength, so she could just put her in the storage bag. She could also rub her two large pieces of soul-nourishing wood to speed up the repair of her soul. And with Cai Jiao by his side, he doesn't have to worry about Cai Wen betraying him. After all, Cai Wen is a politician, and he has been in the court for so many years, but he has never been loyal to the monarch. "Take it. This child is quite pitiful." The fairy suddenly spoke, with a look of compassion and indifference. "Besides, I feel more at ease if I leave her with you. If I leave her outside, if she absorbs too much evil energy and goes crazy one day, I won't be able to kill her right away." She sympathized with the child's situation. Although it was not her fault that he became a puppet, she would not show mercy if he became an evil creature that brought disaster to the world. "You're kidding, fairy. She doesn't have that ability." Ruan Xing added, and then said to Cai Wen, "Okay, I'll accept her, but you have to improve your cultivation as soon as possible, gain the trust of the sect, participate in the sect's affairs, and try not to attract attention and find out more about that... unspeakable news." The news that cannot be spoken is the barrier tree. Anyone who has seen the barrier tree will never be able to mention it again after leaving the barrier. Cai Wen nodded, "I understand." Ruan Xing was about to say a few more words when the Demon Lord suddenly sat up straight and said, "It seems like someone is going to cause trouble for you." Needless to say, this was the result of the Demon Lord's random sweep of his spiritual consciousness. A question mark just popped up in Ruan Xing's mind, but he didn't have time to ask what was going on. The next second, the entire restaurant collapsed like building blocks, and the surrounding buildings spread outward like dominoes. The cold moonlight shone on the ruins, and dust filled the sky. Fortunately, the Demon Lord was quick and grabbed her by the scruff of the neck and flew out of the restaurant. He looked down at his feet and said, "I should have known not to pay for the meal in advance." Is this the time to worry about food money?! Ruan Xing looked down in shock. In the black night, the originally dimly lit scene of the mortal world had turned into a war-torn scene with blazing flames. The cultivators and mortals in the distance heard the noise and hurriedly fled to a farther place. Those who were a little closer and were affected by the shock wave of spiritual power lay on the ground unconscious. Most of the mortals and low-level cultivators in the restaurant had turned into a pool of rotten meat. The cultivators who had good quality protective magic tools were dying, and barely had their bodies intact. The fairy held Cai Wen and Cai Jiao in her left and right hands respectively. Neither of them had obvious injuries. After the aftermath passed, she landed on the ground and let them go. Seeing the tragic scene in front of her, the fairy was furious. "How dare you do this in the town without any regard for the innocent! Such behavior is no different from that of a demon! You thief deserves death!" In the midst of the hustle and bustle, a monk wearing a black hat was hanging above the ruins. The fairy immediately attacked him and started fighting with him. "Who is that man? Why did he come to kill me?" Ruan Xing was at a loss. She didn't remember offending such a Jindan stage cultivator. And when she simulated it before, there was no such thing... Wait, when she was simulating for the last time, the two big guys accidentally captured Xu Sixi and the others. After leaving the secret realm, Xu Sixi attacked her. So in reality, after killing Xu Sixi in the secret realm, she thought she had escaped this disaster. I didn't expect someone would come to kill her. Could it be sent by Elder Xu? But he didn't have any evidence. Why did he think he killed Xu Sixi? "It seems the fairy can't beat him." The Demon Lord sighed helplessly, "She is not familiar with using Yin Qi, and she doesn't have any useful spiritual tools or magic weapons. Fortunately, that person seems to have just formed a pill not long ago, and is not used to her own strength, so they can't do anything to each other for the time being. Really, why is she so impulsive at her age?" "Then Demon Lord, won't you go and help her?" Ruan Xing asked. The Demon Lord pursed his lips and said, "Do you think he's the only one? There's still a late Jindan and two early foundation building cultivators who haven't taken action yet. If I go over to help her now, you'll be dead." Ruan Xing's heart sank. The other three people that the Demon Lord mentioned were probably Elder Xu and his remaining disciples. She didn't expect that killing her, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, would require Elder Xu to come in person. "Can you beat him?" she asked cautiously. The Demon Lord raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm afraid I can't win. I can only exert the strength of the early stage of the Golden Core now. But I can try to help you delay them for a while. You can take the opportunity to run. They are targeting you. If you can find a safe place to hide, it will not be difficult for the fairy and I to escape." "Okay, then I'll leave it to the Demon Lord." Ruan Xing took a deep breath, took out the sect's jade token and threw it on the ground.
They could only find her by finding a way. It's a pity... She originally didn't want to leave the Xuanbing Sect, but there was no other way now. Once the Fairy and the Demon Lord took action, Elder Xu would definitely be able to see that neither of them were serious cultivators, but evil creatures with yin energy. Even if Elder Xu tried to kill her privately, it would still be against the sect's behavior. With this handle, Elder Xu was not only innocent this time, but also meritorious. Perhaps seeing that Ruan Xing and the Demon Lord had not made any moves, Elder Xu finally lost his patience and appeared and sneered at Ruan Xing, "No wonder, it turns out that you are the traitor who colluded with the Demon Sect." Although Ruan Xing believed that she had not colluded with the demon cultivators, she did not care much about the lives of her fellow disciples in the secret realm. She even used Xie Huai to kill Xu Sixi and several others. Moreover, she was now standing with the Demon Lord. No matter how she defended herself, no one would believe her. She asked in a deep voice, "You didn't know it was me who came to kill me, so aren't you afraid that the Sect Master will punish you?" "Sect Master? He can't even protect himself, and he will leave office in half a month. Will he have time to seek justice for you?" Elder Xu laughed twice, and before Ruan Xing could continue talking nonsense, a green light flashed in his hand, and a long-handled Ruyi-shaped magic weapon appeared, and the cloud-like patterns on the top of the head cast a brilliant green light. The Demon Lord swung his long sleeves and pushed Ruan Xing away from the area. He also stepped lightly and flashed in another direction. Then he gathered the Yin energy in his hands and condensed it into a dense sphere which smashed towards Elder Xu. Elder Xu waved the long-handled Ruyi again, and the green light surged under the stimulation of his spiritual power, which smashed the ball of Yin Qi. The scattered Yin Qi was like continuous mist, surrounding Elder Xu's body. Whenever it touched the skin, it would twist and drill into it like a leech, but Elder Xu's body-protecting spiritual power shook, blocking the Yin Qi from advancing or retreating. Seeing this, the Demon Lord didn't care. He opened his mouth slightly, revealing his gums and white teeth sewn together by black silk thread. He inhaled hard, and a gust of wind formed a small vortex in his mouth. The mist-like Yin Qi mixed with Elder Xu's protective spiritual power was uncontrollably sucked into the vortex. Seeing that the Demon Lord could handle it, Ruan Xing no longer hesitated, turned around, stepped on the flying sword and ran towards Liuyang Study. Now, for her, the safest place is not Xuanbing Sect or Yunyang City, but that mortal dynasty. Liuyang Study will not allow others to discover their biggest secret, this unknown dynasty and the ingenious barrier tree. As long as Elder Xu finds out, he will surely die. As for whether she can survive by then, that remains to be seen. She had seen the barrier tree, so Liuyang Academy would not worry about her revealing their secrets, but it was hard to say what Liuyang Academy's attitude was towards the evil ghost cultivators, even though their skills and the dynasty they concealed did not seem particularly formal. She had just flown out for less than a few seconds when she was stopped again. This time it was Elder Xu's two direct disciples. They seemed to be relatively familiar with each other and cooperated well, entangled her steps. Although Ruan Xing's cultivation was slightly higher than theirs, she was at a disadvantage for a moment. The time that the Demon Lord bought for her cannot be wasted like this. Ruan Xing made a prompt decision and released Fu Qinghong's puppet. The puppet still has the strength left in the late stage of foundation building, so it should have no problem dealing with Elder Xu's two disciples. It's just a pity that it will most likely die here, and won't be able to recover until he regains consciousness. Unexpectedly, her momentary weakness would become her life-saving straw at this moment. Is this what it means to be rewarded for doing good? Ordering Fu Qinghong to attack and hold the two men, Ruan Xing used the sword-controlling technique again to prepare to leave, but suddenly a loud noise came into his ears. She subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and happened to see the fairy's snow-white dress mixed with blood fluttering like a butterfly that had lost its balance and fell into the ruins of the restaurant, causing a small mushroom cloud. The Jindan monk wearing a black hat took advantage of the victory and pursued the enemy, his sword shining with spiritual light, and flew rapidly towards the center of the mushroom cloud. The Demon Lord was distracted and used the Devouring Technique to create a strong suction force to deflect the direction of the sword, and Elder Xu also seized the opportunity to shoot a green light in the direction of Ruan Xing. Only a breath of time passed from the time Ruan Xing saw the green light to the time she was hit by it. The [Yu] character spell that she had been wearing since she left the Xuanbing Sect flashed a faint light and then disappeared. Ruan Xing suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and her body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string. Her back hit the ruins of a building on the ground. The strong force caused her to break through the wall and drag on the ground for dozens of meters. She only felt that all her bones and muscles were broken, blood was constantly oozing out of her ears, nose and mouth, and her vision became extremely blurry. She wanted to sit up and take a healing pill, but she couldn't move at all. Her spine might have been broken. No way... He died before he was even halfway to becoming an immortal, and he died before he could accomplish his mission... Ruan Xing was thinking of all kinds of things to divert her attention so as not to be overwhelmed by the pain. She forced herself to open her eyelids and seemed to see a dazzling white light.
Then someone seemed to pick her up gently, and she sank into a pool of cold water. Those hands, which moved so gently, were extremely cold. Thanks for the monthly ticket from Hope Wandering~ Thanks to MidoriQ for the monthly ticket~ Thanks to Hao Ning for the monthly ticket~ (End of this chapter)
