Chapter 35:

Upon learning of the powerful figure outside the city, Ji Yan immediately set off.

This time, Chi Lian did not accompany the man, citing the dangers of nighttime and the need for someone to remain at the Zhang residence, especially since they had arranged for someone to care for the wounded. Ji Yan also knew the dangers of nighttime, with its many demons, and felt that Chi Lian should not go with him to avoid danger. Therefore, the man set off on his own.

After nightfall, except for the red-light district, almost no one could move around in Fengming City. The people were afraid of the rampant demons, making it extremely inconvenient for ordinary people to travel at night. Over time, everyone stayed indoors, and dared not light lamps at night. The government also issued notices instructing the people not to go out at night, to avoid going up the mountain, to minimize outdoor time, and not to act alone to avoid encountering demons.

Except for the red-light district, the city was pitch black at night.

Ji Yan arrived alone at the inn in the south of the city, carrying a lantern. The front door was tightly shut, so he had to extinguish his lantern and enter through the back door.

"Who are you?" the guard in the back courtyard stopped Ji Yan. It

was pitch black all around, with only the chirping of birds and insects.

"I am Ji Yan, and I have come here specifically to ask for your help. Please make an exception for me." "

I was blind and didn't recognize you. It's too dark, and I didn't recognize you just now. My boss forbids me from lighting a lantern, saying it's to avoid attracting mountain spirits and monsters."

Upon hearing that he was the son-in-law of the famous Zhang family, the guard immediately became extremely polite. The Zhang family held great prestige in Fengming City, and Ji Yan's name was known throughout the city; everyone knew he was the new son-in-law of the Zhang family.

Ji Yan handed the extinguished lantern to the guard: "Today, some villagers were attacked by demons, so I came here specifically to seek advice from a master. Young brother, could you tell me which room the master who captured several beautiful ghosts a few days ago lives in?"

"That master lives in the 'Heaven' room, just follow this road straight..." Before the guard could finish speaking, Ji Yan said thank you and disappeared into the backyard of the inn in a flash. Before the guard could even call out, the master instructed that no one should disturb him tonight.

Ji Yan quickly arrived at the so-called "Heaven" room, which was the best room in the inn. He had just stopped in front of the door when he heard a woman's laughter inside.

Could this master be a woman?

Without thinking too much, Ji Yan knocked on the door: "Excuse me, is the master asleep? If not, please open the door. I am Ji Yan, and I have something to ask of you." Ji Yan didn't mince words and directly stated his purpose.

The laughter from inside grew increasingly eerie, and from the rising and falling sounds, it was clear that no one was in the room. At this moment, Ji Yan sensed a chilling aura leaking from the crack in the door.

He frowned, and without being invited, he pushed open the door and barged in. With a flick of his sleeve, he slammed the six doors shut, preventing the chilling aura from escaping, lest it return and cause a demon to return.

The person inside seemed unaffected by Ji Yan's intrusion. A screen stood in the room, and the laughter came from behind it. The candlelight in the dim room seemed both eerie and ambiguous.

Behind the screen, five scantily clad, alluring ghosts were relentlessly teasing a handsome, silver-haired young man. Despite the five beautiful female ghosts' close contact and provocation, the young man remained unmoved, his eyes closed. His clothes were torn open, exposing his entire chest, yet he remained seated as still as a mountain, unmoved by the five female ghosts' advances.

"Buddha descends..."

The man immediately recognized the powerful figure surrounded by female ghosts as Buddha, the highly skilled disciple of Qingfeng Valley. His silver robe was disheveled and open, and the five alluring female ghosts beside him were scantily clad, their breasts exposed, their thin garments unable to conceal their exquisite curves. Seeing this lewd scene, Ji Yan's eyes widened, speechless with astonishment. Ji Yan moved with incredible

lightness; neither the ghosts nor the humans, immersed in the decadent atmosphere, noticed his presence. The flickering candlelight in the room was dim, and a heavy, yin energy permeated the space.

"Buddha, your willpower is the best we sisters have ever seen; we cannot shake your resolve," the five alluring ghosts said, lingering intimately on Buddha's body.

Buddha chuckled softly with his eyes closed: "Then use all your skills to seduce me, to make me lose control."

For Buddha, this was merely a test to improve his willpower.

Chapter 36

After staring for a while, Ji Yan finally figured it out. He hadn't expected the disciples of Qingfeng Valley to use such an unorthodox method to test his composure; it was far too contrary to the ways of the righteous sects.

"Cough cough..."

Ji Yan couldn't continue watching and coughed to remind Fo Jiang.

The next second—

Fo Jiang opened his eyes alertly, his sharp gaze sweeping over the man. The five alluring ghosts, startled, automatically retreated into the demon-gathering bottle on the table. Only when the five ghostly flames disappeared from the bottle's opening did Fo Jiang close the lid.

"Uncle, what are you doing here?" Fo Jiang was clearly displeased at being disturbed. He frowned and tugged at his clothes, his sharp gaze urging the man to speak quickly.

"My name is Ji Yan." Ji Yan still gave his name, lest the other party forget him.

Fo Jiang remembered this man named Ji Yan. Their previous meetings had left a deep impression on Fo Jiang; this man was not only "lustful" but also "unable to distinguish right from wrong," and his peculiar fate had also etched itself into Fo Jiang's memory.

That day, Fo Jiang had predicted that Ji Yan would face a major calamity within three months, though it wasn't entirely insurmountable. This man, Ji Yan, hadn't believed him then, and if he came seeking help again, Fo Jiang was reluctant to reveal the method to avert the calamity.

Moreover, heavenly secrets should not be revealed.

Ji Yan was unaware that Fo Jiang had misunderstood his purpose. He only felt a hint of disdain in Fo Jiang's gaze. He knew Fo Jiang held a bad opinion of him, but it was all a misunderstanding.

Just as the man was about to explain, he heard Fo Jiang's clear voice: "I remember you. I heard you recently married my junior sister, uncle. Congratulations." He chuckled as he sized up Ji Yan, surprised that this man was so lucky to have caught the eye of his junior sister, whose standards were always so high.

Fo Jiang's gaze made Ji Yan feel uneasy, as if he were being scrutinized. To avoid wasting time, Ji Yan told Fo Jiang everything that had happened that day, explaining that his spiritual energy had been waning recently. He added that if things went wrong dealing with the young tree demon, for safety's sake, he should ask Fo Jiang to help capture the thousand-year-old tree spirit. After all, they were both righteous people, and those who saw the people suffering from demons would always step in to help.

"Fengming City is known for its frequent disturbances and lack of cultivators. I hope you don't mind that I've come here so abruptly to ask for your help." To avoid Fo Jiang misunderstanding that he was cowardly, Ji Yan felt it necessary to explain everything.

After listening to the man's earnest explanation, Fo Jiang's opinion of Ji Yan changed somewhat. He had initially thought Ji Yan had come to ask for help in resolving a robbery, but this man disregarded his own safety and was even pleading for the people of Fengming City. This made Fo Jiang feel Ji Yan's sincerity and goodwill.

"I know without you saying it. I originally planned to deal with that thousand-year-old tree spirit tomorrow. Exorcising demons is also an important task for our Qingfeng Valley."

"That's for the best. If you need my help..."

"Uncle Ji, I can go by myself. Your spiritual power is still weak. I won't have time to take care of you if I go."

As they spoke, Fo Jiang poured the man a cup of tea. He appreciated Ji Yan's kindness, but he didn't want to be distracted by rescuing the man later.

After the demon-slaying matter was settled, Ji Yan politely took his leave of Fo Jiang. Fo Jiang was puzzled as to why the man hadn't mentioned the great calamity at all. Fo Jiang lowered his eyes in thought and silently put away the demon-gathering bottle. This man, Ji Yan, was truly strange. Wasn't he afraid of death? Was he really that considerate of others?

Although this man was a lecher in Fo Jiang's eyes, he was actually more benevolent than he had previously known.

As the man was about to leave the room, Fo Jiang reminded him without looking up, "Uncle Ji, don't blame me for not telling you, tomorrow, no matter who asks you to go out, don't go. Remember, don't step out of the Zhang residence."

"..." Ji Yan paused, his eyes becoming somewhat complicated.

"Whether you believe it or not, I've told you everything today. It's all up to fate."

"Thank you..."

Ji Yan thanked him with a hint of doubt before hurriedly leaving, the door to the room slamming shut with a sharp gust of wind.

Chapter 37

The next morning, Ji Yan got up early to check on the villagers in the backyard. The injured were all in stable condition. After they had breakfast, Ji Yan sent servants from his mansion to take the villagers home. After settling the others in, Ji Yan saw Chi Lian walk into the main hall of the Zhang mansion. Chi Lian's fiery red clothes made his pale skin appear even more eerie.

"Brother Chi, you're awake. It's not a good day to leave the city. I'll have someone take you back to the mansion later." Ji Yan greeted him with a smile. The man's smile was gentle and simple, a genuine

smile from the heart. The man felt that Chi Lian had worked hard yesterday, and Ji Yan should have personally taken Chi Lian back today. However, Ji Yan thought about the Buddha's advice yesterday and felt it was inconvenient, so he decided to have a servant take Chi Lian.

Chi Lian cooperated with his arrangements. Before leaving, she sincerely said to the man, "Brother Ji, I'll take my leave now. I'll visit you on a boat trip on the lake another day."

Ji Yan smiled and nodded, watching Chi Lian leave. Chi Lian didn't go out that day, staying home to manage the Zhang family's affairs. No one came to see him. After learning that a master had gone out of the city to subdue the demon, the villagers obediently followed the government's instructions and didn't leave the city. The people's behavior troubled Ji Yan, because with Ji Yan staying in the city, the people felt at ease.

"That Zhang family's son-in-law is truly a miracle worker! Last night, he managed to summon a master. I heard even the county magistrate tried to get one, but he didn't even get a glimpse of the master."

"That's right, that's right! The Zhang family's son-in-law has practiced magic, and he's also a good person. He even got a doctor to treat the villagers."

"Yes! Madam Ji is truly blessed to have found such a good man."

...

The news of Ji Yan quickly spread among the people. Ji Yan had practically become the savior of Fengming City, which put immense pressure on him. That evening, Ji Yan waited anxiously at the Zhang residence for news. There had been no word from Buddha since he left the city, which inevitably made the man worried.

After nightfall,

Ji Yan was about to go to his study to read when someone rushed in with news that something had happened in the red-light district—a wild beast had injured many people.

Disregarding his own safety, Ji Yan rushed to the red-light district with the messenger. Upon arriving at the scene, he found many people bitten; some women had their skirts torn off, their clothes tattered. The men were also fleeing in panic, creating chaos inside the building. The guards summoned everyone and locked the main gate tightly to prevent any wild animals from escaping.

"What was that that bit people?"

"It's the companion of the tiger demon you killed last time. That monster is in tiger form, but it can talk. It said we have to invite you here, or it will bite us to death..." The guard pressed his head, sweating profusely with fear.

"Please, everyone, after I go in, unless I call for it, do not open the door under any circumstances!"

Ji Yan instructed the guards to keep a close watch to prevent harm to innocent people.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The guards nodded hurriedly.

Ji Yan instructed the madam to take the wounded to the pharmacy at the street corner. The able-bodied men were responsible for guarding the outside of the building; everyone followed Ji Yan's orders. He told the guards to open the door, and he entered Liu Fang Lou alone.

It was pitch black inside; Ji Yan could only make out the interior by the moonlight…

A tiger spirit lay on the table, coldly staring at the man who entered: “You’ve finally shown up. You killed my brother; I’ll make you pay with your life.” The tiger stood up, revealing its bloodthirsty teeth, its face extremely ferocious.

Ji Yan didn’t speak, feeling something was amiss. The tiger hadn’t yet cultivated into human form, and its strength was still relatively low. Why would it provoke him alone? This wasn’t so simple.

Ji Yan calmly said to the tiger, "You are no match for me. If you turn back now, I can help you reincarnate as a human."

"Don't be naive! What's the point of being human!" the tiger spirit laughed arrogantly, smashing a table with its paw. "You killed my brother, and your inner core was taken! You humans are so cruel, what's the point of being human?!"

The man frowned. He hadn't killed the tiger spirit that day; when he arrived, the tiger spirit had already been killed by that extraordinary man, and its inner core must have been taken by that man…

A few glimmers of understanding appeared in Ji Yan's eyes. He roughly understood this demon's intentions: "You want to use your brother's inner core to increase your magic power, but unfortunately, that thing isn't with me. I didn't kill that tiger spirit."

Ji Yan truthfully recounted the events of that day, but the demon before him didn't believe him, and even showed signs of going berserk. Ji Yan lowered his eyes, a layer of solemnity clouding his gentle gaze.

There was no other way; if he didn't subdue this ambitious demon, more villagers would surely be harmed.

Half an hour later—

Ji Yan had the door opened. Because the spiritual energy hadn't recovered, he had expended considerable effort to subdue the demon. Such an unformed demon, after being purified by the gourd, would become a top-grade healing ingredient.

Just as the man finished subduing the demon, a loud gong-like sound came from afar, followed by a sudden, fiery inferno in the darkness…

“Something terrible has happened! The Crimson Mansion is on fire! Everyone, hurry and put out the fire!”

Panic erupted all around. The women in the brothel were so frightened they fell to the ground. Everyone was saying that demons were causing trouble in this chaotic world, making people panic. Did they even want anyone to live? The cries, the fearful discussions, and the urgent shouts from afar mingled together, shattering the silence of Fengming City.

The Crimson Mansion was on fire!

Ji Yan's heart sank, filled with worry. His first thought was for Chi Lian's safety...

Chapter 38.

Ji Yan rushed to the Chi residence without stopping. The fire had already engulfed the entire courtyard. Only the sound of burning flames could be heard, but no one cried out for mercy. Ji Yan's mind was completely focused on Chi Lian's safety. He had no time to think about anything else. In this dire situation, he completely forgot the Buddha's advice.

"Brother Chi..." Ji Yan murmured, his eyes reddened by the flames.

Many villagers had rushed over and were fetching water to put out the fire. Ji Yan was extremely worried about Chi Lian's condition. If he had kept Chi Lian in the residence today, this wouldn't have happened. Thinking of all the kindness Chi Lian had shown him, Ji Yan was in turmoil. He only knew that he couldn't bear to leave Chi Lian.

Ji Yan called out a few times from outside, and even those rushing to put out the fire could see his anxiety. Just as Ji Yan was about to go in and find Chi Lian himself…

his arm was suddenly grabbed—

the man turned around and saw Chi Lian standing unharmed in front of him. Chi Lian was calmly looking at the man, as if searching for something in the man's tense eyes. In the darkness, Chi Lian's serene eyes seemed to glow with a red light, their lakes shimmering with a captivating gleam. Chi Lian's appearance made the man completely relieved.

"Brother Chi, it's good that you're alright! It's good that you're alright…" The man slowly hugged Chi Lian. He thought that Chi Lian's silence was due to being frightened by the fire, so he gently embraced the silent Chi Lian.

Villagers around were helping to put out the fire. Chi Lian rested his face on the man's shoulder, and where the man couldn't see, a cryptic smile flickered across his lips. It was a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth, like mockery, or perhaps satisfaction, but more like triumph. Ji Yan trusted him implicitly, and this effect pleased Chi Lian greatly.

"Brother Ji, so you care about me this much?" Chi Lian's eyes were dark and inky when the man couldn't see, but his tone was warm and friendly. "Don't worry, there's no one else in the manor today."

The man hesitated for a moment before sincerely saying, "Of course I care about you. You're my sworn brother, my only brother. When I first arrived in Fengming City, you helped me a lot. Over the years, you've been the first person to treat me so genuinely." The man spoke the truth. In all his years of wandering, no one had ever treated him with such warmth as Chi Lian.

The man was an honest man; if others treated him well, he would treat them well in return.

The man was very worried about what had happened at the Chi Lian mansion. Upon inquiring, he learned that the Chi family had released all their servants and maids to return to their hometowns to visit their families. The only two remaining maids had gone with Chi Lian and Yu Li to the He family's house, leaving the entire Chi mansion empty. Chi Lian, who had been drinking at the He family's house, had rushed back alone upon hearing of the fire.

After learning what had happened, the man told Chi Lian to stand still in a safe place. He stopped the villagers from helping to put out the fire. Soon after, many constables from the yamen arrived to help, but the fire grew larger and larger.

The man sensed something was wrong!

This fire…

seemed to be imbued with spiritual power, unlike any other flame.

Ji Yan stared at the flames, his mind racing with countless theories. Chi Lian, who was watching the "show" from the sidelines, knew best the cause of the fire. He was certain that the white lion statue had burned down his den while he was away.

At this moment…

"Ah! This...this...why did this happen!"

"Why did the house suddenly disappear? The flames disappeared too!"

"Oh dear, it must be a monster, a monster again!" The villagers began to shout in panic, but the officials calmed them down.

The scene before them stunned everyone. The flames that had been burning just moments before vanished rapidly, and even the Crimson Mansion disappeared into thin air on the empty ground. There was nothing but emptiness, with weeds and a few withered trees scattered everywhere. Even the once beautiful lotus pond had become a stagnant pool of water, with gusts of cold wind blowing through it, making it look incredibly eerie.

Chi Lian frowned. Seeing this scene, he naturally knew that the white lion must have used heavenly fire to burn him out of the Crimson Mansion.

"Brother Ji, this must be the work of a monster." Chi Lian's voice was very soft, leaving the man with no room for argument.

"Hmm." Ji Yan nodded. "Brother Chi, you don't need to worry, I'll handle this for you."

At this moment, some villagers said that someone had seen a white lion monster on the mountain a few days ago. Recently, there have been both thousand-year-old tree demons and white lion monsters, causing panic among the villagers.

"White lion..." The man repeated softly, seemingly lost in thought.

He remembered that not long ago, that lion had assaulted him...

Thinking of this, the man coughed uncomfortably a few times. Chi Lian noticed that the man's expression was off. He placed his hand on the man's back and gently asked if the man was alright. Receiving Chi Lian's concern, the man smiled and said he was fine.

Chapter 39

Ji Yan explained the situation to the people at the yamen. The people at the yamen treated him very politely and helped evacuate the villagers. The man invited Chi Lian to stay at his residence. There was no other way now. Chi Lian hadn't originally planned to go to Ji Yan's place, but after hearing Ji Yan's invitation, he went anyway.

Ji Yan also learned from Chi Lian that Master He had invited him to discuss his marriage to Yu Li. After learning that Yu Li and Master He were being frank about their marriage, the man was happy for Yu Li, as Master He was a very important figure. Chi Lian also seemed quite satisfied.

"Brother Ji," Chi Lian said simply, "my Chi family mansion has been destroyed by sorcery. I'll stay at your mansion for a few days this month, and Yu Li will stay at Master He's house." He still sought Ji Yan's opinion.

"That's fine,"

Chi Lian added, "I hope I haven't disturbed you, Brother Ji."

Ji Yan replied without hesitation, "You can stay at my mansion as long as you like. We're sworn brothers, no need for such formalities."

After escorting Chi Lian back to his mansion, Ji Yan went to an inn alone. He learned from the waiter that Fo Jiang hadn't returned yet. The man hurriedly went outside the city; if something hadn't happened to Fo Jiang, why hadn't he returned so late?

When he invited Buddha to descend yesterday, he should have realized that the thousand-year-old tree demon couldn't be dealt with by one person alone. He should have ignored Buddha's advice and gone with him; after all, two people are always stronger than one.

Now, Buddha hasn't returned, so he has no choice but to leave the city alone.

When the man hurried to the woods on the outskirts, it was so dark that he could barely see his surroundings. The moon was obscured by dark clouds, and there was a strong demonic aura nearby.

Ji Yan sensed the gathering of spiritual energy and went there. When he saw Buddha, Buddha was sitting cross-legged in the woods, with a huge Buddhist seal formed by spiritual energy gathering on the ground, spinning continuously.

His eyes were closed, his hands were making a Buddhist offering, and he was chanting scriptures. This was the "Demon-Slaying Seal" of Qingfeng Valley. The silver incantations flowed continuously from his mouth, forming a huge protective shield that enveloped him. As the chanting grew faster, the Buddhist seal on the ground spun faster and faster.

Ji Yan knew that Buddha was performing a ritual, so he didn't dare to approach. A chilling wind swept through the dark night, damp and eerie. The spiritual energy hadn't yet recovered, and

the man didn't sense the danger slowly approaching. "Buddha Descent..." he wanted to ask Buddha Descent what was wrong, unaware that he had fallen into the trap of the Tree Demon.

"Watch out!" Buddha Descent frowned sharply upon hearing the man's voice. The chilling wind whipped their hair and clothes around their necks.

The man tensed, but before he could react, a dark shadow pressed down on him from behind, binding his body with vines that tightly wrapped around his waist, lifting him into the air.

"Didn't I tell you not to leave the manor?! Why did you keep advising me and even interfere with my ritual!" Buddha Descent stood up angrily. The protective barrier around him vanished instantly, but the Buddha seal beneath his feet still rotated clearly.

Now, nothing he said would help; the man's concern was justified.

"I came because you hadn't returned yet," the man answered the Buddha's question honestly, while attempting to use his magic to sever the vines binding him.

"Hahahaha! One wasn't enough, two more have come! Well then, today I'll absorb your spiritual energy and show you the power of this thousand-year-old tree demon!"

"Demon, don't be so presumptuous," Ji Yan whispered a warning to the still enormous tree-shaped tree demon. Its vines, like snakes, climbed and bound the man's body.

The man realized that his strength was utterly ineffective against the tree demon in this state of heightened Yin energy. Bound in mid-air, he began to struggle desperately.

The Buddha chanted scriptures, waving his staff. Several beams of spiritual light struck the tree demon, causing it to loosen its grip on the man, only to tighten its hold even more the next second.

Buddha Jiang's sharp gaze swept over the man, his extreme displeasure at the man's presence: "You're just getting in the way."

"You'd better get me down first," the man said, his voice lacking confidence, but he calmly told Buddha Jiang, "Don't hit his branches, you won't kill him that way, you have to..."

Just as the man was about to explain his method, the vines binding him suddenly tightened, strangling his neck and locking his hands. The vines, which had been waving in the air, wrapped around his thighs, binding him tightly, rendering him immobile...

(Chapter 40)

Before Ji Yan could continue, the tree demon's wildly waving vines burrowed into the man's clothes. The man's eyes widened in shock. He tried to speak, but the vines then burrowed into his mouth, pushing deep into his throat, rendering him speechless, only able to groan for help.

At this moment, Buddha Jiang closed his eyes, continuously chanting incantations, while the swastika Buddha seal beneath his feet grew larger and larger, the man unable to exert any strength due to the tree demon's control.

The vines climbed up the man's thighs, reaching towards his private parts...

The tree demon laughed wildly, the vines tightening around his body, leaving crimson marks on his skin, and tearing his clothes as the vines penetrated.

"Mmm..." The man shook his head uneasily, the vines playing with his mouth, their penetration causing his cheeks to swell, making it impossible for him to close his lips.

Saliva that he hadn't swallowed dripped slowly from the corners of his mouth...

The man's honey-colored skin began to flush red. He couldn't imagine being violated by a demon in front of others, until the vines pressed against his anus.

"Ugh!" The man tried to call for Buddha's help, but Buddha was forming a spell.

Soon—

the rapidly spinning spell enveloped the tree demon, which let out a series of cries. Buddha opened his eyes, lightly leaped onto the tree demon's branch, and plunged his staff into the tree demon's body. The tree demon was injured, but it still wouldn't let go.

Ji Yan felt the vines binding him tighten even more…

Just as the vines tried to squeeze into the man's body, the Buddhist seal on the ground ignited into flames, burning from the tree demon's roots. The man heard the demon's screams.

He was nearly strangled to death; before losing consciousness, he saw the Buddha's unusually bright eyes, and spiritual light emanating from the forest in the darkness…

Ji Yan thought he was dead. When he woke up, he was in an unfamiliar place, but within half a cup of tea's time, he realized it was a room the Buddha had rented at the inn. Moreover, he wasn't dead; the areas where the vines had bound him had been treated and bandaged. He was completely unable to move…

He was badly injured. Although his spiritual energy was slowly recovering, the tree demon had almost killed him, and he still felt a lingering fear. He only remembered arriving in the forest yesterday and being strangled unconscious by the tree demon; after that, he remembered nothing.

Ji Yan tried to sit up, but couldn't move.

Not long after, the door was pushed open. Fo Jiang had just returned from the yamen. He had eliminated the tree demon and then notified the yamen staff to post a notice about leaving the city. He had just returned when he saw the man was awake. He didn't really want to talk to the man, feeling that the man had bothered him last night.

"I'm sorry you had to see me like this last night..." Ji Yan regretted not being able to help and had almost implicated Fo Jiang. Fortunately, Fo Jiang was unharmed, otherwise he would have felt even more guilty.

"Uncle Ji, why are you risking your own life? I didn't want to save you, but if it weren't for your concern for the people, I would have left you there to die." Fo Jiang's sharp gaze swept over Ji Yan's guilty face. He snorted lightly. "Rest well here. I've already sent someone to the Zhang residence to inquire about your safety. I've already paid the rent." "

Are you leaving?"

"Yes, I still have a mission to complete." Fo Jiang nodded, turning to look at the man a few times. "Uncle Ji, you should rest well. I've told the innkeeper that meals will be delivered to you three times a day. If you need to use the restroom, just call out, and my son will help you. You'll be able to move again in a few hours, so there's no need to be nervous." With that, Fo Jiang left.

Ji Yan knew Fo Jiang must have something to do, and he didn't want to trouble him further. According to Fo Jiang, Ji Yan would be able to walk back to his residence on his own the next day.

Having vanquished the tree demon, the man was finally relieved of his worries. He could barely sit up by the afternoon, but every part of his body ached. The pain only gradually subsided after nightfall. He lay in bed all day, and the peaceful silence of the night was shattered at midnight…

Chapter 41:

Slow footsteps echoed in the inn's corridor, followed by a sinister voice chuckling – “Ninth Master, the person you need is ready. We've already paid his family. The innkeeper said he's waiting for you in the ‘Earth’ room.” It sounded like the voice of a male prostitute from the Drunken Moon Pavilion.

“Is it voluntary?”

“Yes, yes, I did everything according to Ninth Master's orders. The person I found for you is voluntary, and he's strong, more resilient than the average person!”

“The man you found for me?” The young man called Ninth Emperor spoke with a hint of displeasure in his otherwise gentle voice.

"Ninth Master, I know you're not into this kind of thing, but none of the girls agreed. Only this big guy is willing, and he's strong and can hold out. Maybe he can last until tomorrow."

"..." The man didn't hear Ninth Master's reply.

"Ninth Master, see if it's suitable. If not, we can change."

"Never mind." Ninth Master's voice softened, his gentle tone tinged with laziness. The man lay on his side by the bed, listening to the two talking. They've even come to an inn to solicit prostitutes?

The man had no interest in what others were doing. He just wanted to listen. Ji Yan was a little helpless. He was now in a bind. Even if he didn't want to listen, he had to, because these two were standing at his door.

Ji Yan wasn't asleep. He listened quietly to the sounds outside and saw two figures walk to his door. One was a short male prostitute, and the other was a tall, slender young man...

From their figures and gait, Ji Yan could tell that the other was a young man.

The young man known as "Ninth Emperor" tossed a bag of silver to the male prostitute and sent him away. The man was about to go to sleep when he heard someone push open the door and enter the room…

What was going on?

The man peeked out to see what was happening, and at that moment, a figure swiftly flashed to the bedside and pressed down on him. The room was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

The other person seemed to have no intention of speaking to him, and simply dragged him over. Ji Yan resisted with all his might, preparing to shout at this rude and reckless stranger, but at the same time, his mouth was gagged with strips of cloth, rendering him unable to speak. Soon, Ji Yan felt someone pull his legs apart.

Because the man was wrapped in bandages, the other person was clearly stunned when he touched the strips of cloth on the man's body, but when he heard the man's groan, the other person paused again.

After a brief silence, the other party seemed impatient. The man, in pain, couldn't cry out or shout. His hands frantically pushed at the unseen stranger before him. Ji Yan, severely injured, had little strength to struggle, but he could clearly feel the other's approach. The other ignored his struggles and directly spread his legs…

Both were unable to see each other, which suited Jiu Huang perfectly. He couldn't see the other's face anyway; seeing would only complicate things. He had no interest in men, but he had no other choice. His mating season had arrived, and without someone to relieve his pent-up desires, he wouldn't be able to endure it. Every time he discovered this, he needed someone to release his pent-up desires, and his energy was exceptionally abundant—a lust that ordinary people could hardly withstand.

Indeed, Jiu Huang was a male beast…

therefore, ordinary people couldn't bear his terrifying desires, and he needed someone to release them. He couldn't go to a lioness; there simply weren't any, because he was the only white lion sacred beast in the world, and he couldn't find a lioness to mate with…

He could only relieve his desires in human form, and it was also the simplest and easiest method.

The man, unaware of the other's identity, felt utterly humiliated, as if he'd been tricked into the wrong room by someone who was trying to assault him.

He tried to close his legs, but the bandaged flesh was forced apart, causing him to groan softly. He heard the sound of the other man unbuttoning his robe, and tried to back away…

In the darkness,
