The Carefree Little Immortal [Complete] - 17

In the seventh episode, "A Gathering of Heroes," in

the first chapter of "Gourd Town, "

Fei Luo saw the tears streaming down the man's face and felt a pang of sympathy. She gently wiped them away with her fingers, her voice
tender : "Silly boy, the Heavenly Court and my sect have always been on good terms; they won't make things too difficult for me."

"But you just killed a Thunder God General not long ago."

"That guy was just a minor deity, and besides, these heavenly soldiers are clearly after you; they might not even
know about this." Fei Luo looked at the sky, seeing the clouds getting closer and closer, her heart filled with anxiety. She urged him urgently, "Hurry!
Otherwise, it will really be too late. Once the net of heaven and earth is set up, there will be no escape!"

Xiao Xuan resolutely said, "I'll summon the Bone Dragon and fight them!"

“No, that Nezha is a fierce general from the upper realm, the Great God of the Three Altars and Seas who has subdued seventy-two demon caves. Even
the Four Dragon Kings of the Seas are no match for him. Your dragon may be powerful, but how can it compare to the Four Dragon Kings of the Seas?” Fei
Luo pulled a purple rhinoceros hairpin from her temple and said, “If I were uninjured, I could hold him off for a while. Right now, I just hope I can hold
him off for a moment. You must seize the opportunity to rush out!”

“But… no, no! I absolutely cannot watch you risk your life for me.” Xiao Xuan shook his head repeatedly, his mind racing as he
desperately tried to think of a solution.

“If you keep hesitating, I’ll get angry!” Fei Luo’s face darkened.

Xiao Xuan felt both pain and anxiety, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he exclaimed excitedly, “I’ve got it!
See if this can save us…”

“What?” Fei Luo was stunned.

Xiao Xuan swiftly opened his magic pouch, took out a talisman, and chanted an incantation before tossing it into the air
. Suddenly, the surrounding scenery distorted, like a gentle ripple on water. The two of them, along with their small boat, were enveloped in a wondrous
, completely transparent bubble-like object. Countless tiny talismanic patterns surged from the bubble, appearing and disappearing
like fleeting waves.

"An invisibility talisman?" Fei Luo exclaimed in surprise.

Xiao Xuan nodded, "This talisman is called 'Emptiness,' it has the power to make things invisible. I wonder if it can help
us?"

Fei Luo stared intently at the talismanic patterns, her expression growing increasingly astonished. "What a wondrous talisman! Its spiritual energy
is unique and its structure intricate; it's definitely a top-tier item. How did you acquire such a talisman?"

"It was given to me by the Spirit Bamboo Clan girl I met in the Giant Bamboo Valley last time," Xiao Xuan replied.

"So it's a talisman from the Demon Saint! No wonder it possesses such miraculous power," Fei Luo couldn't help but admire.

Just then, the purple clouds in the sky parted and spread out, painting the sky with an unusual and magnificent beauty.

The two tensed up. Fei Luo whispered, "They must be looking for us..."

Xiao Xuan clasped his hands in silent prayer, "Jade Emperor, Amitabha, Namo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva, please protect us
from being discovered..." He suddenly remembered that the Jade Emperor was the master of these heavenly soldiers and generals, and perhaps
he was the one who sent them to steal the Primordial Mystery. How could he possibly protect them? He quickly spat, "You old codger, go cool off
somewhere else !"

A purple cloud slowly descended, hovering about ten feet above them. Seven or eight golden-armored
heavenly soldiers , their beards and hair clearly visible, were leaning on their swords and axes, carefully observing downwards.

Xiao Xuan and Fei Luo held their breath, not daring to move a muscle.

Those few moments felt like an eternity to them.

Although Xiao Xuan knew the E'yan talisman was incredibly powerful, he was facing celestial soldiers and generals from the upper realm, and felt completely
uncertain.

Several celestial soldiers glanced at the spot where Fei Luo and Xiao Xuan were hiding, but showed no interest. They
hovered above them on purple clouds for a while before slowly moving away.

Xiao Xuan was secretly delighted and whispered to Fei Luo, "This invisibility talisman really works! It seems we've fooled them!"

Fei Luo quickly pointed to her lips, signaling him to be quiet.

After a while, the swirling clouds rose and gathered at a high point, clearly having found nothing.
They lingered in the air for a moment before slowly drifting away into the distance.

"They're gone!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed joyfully, about to stand up, but Fei Luo grabbed him.

"Don't move. They haven't gone far. Any movement within a hundred miles won't escape their notice," Fei Luo whispered
.

Xiao Xuan quickly sat back in the boat and waited patiently.

The wind in the reed marshes picked up again, endlessly swirling the reeds into a cloud of fluff, which
danced lightly and gracefully like snow or rain, many of them piercing through the invisible bubble-like canopy and falling upon the two of them.

Xiao Xuan was initially nervous and uneasy, but quickly calmed down under Fei Luo's gaze. He moved closer and
embraced her soft, warm, and voluptuous body.

Fei Luo sat quietly, letting him hold her, her jade-like head gently resting on his shoulder, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, as if listening to
the exquisite sound of the wind rustling through the flowers.

Xiao Xuan thoroughly enjoyed this moment. He was bathed in fragrance; besides the inherent sweetness and richness of the beauty, there was also a strong, strange aroma in his nostrils, like nectar or fine wine, making him feel as if he were in a fairyland.

This was the scent of the milky essence that Fei Luo had previously let slip. Xiao Xuan inhaled deeply, feeling his soul become intoxicated.

Fei Luo noticed, her cheeks flushing, and she buried her burning face in his broad
chest.

Xiao Xuan looked up at the sky, watching the flowers dance and the clouds drift by, wishing that this could last forever, until the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled
.

The sun gradually slanted westward, its dazzling light softening before finally sinking into the distant,
shimmering water with a breathtakingly beautiful silhouette.

Darkness descended on the lake, and the wind made the surroundings eerily quiet.

"Are you cold?" Xiao Xuan asked softly.

Fei Luo shook her head and said, "They've been silent for so long, they've probably gone far away
. Let's leave here too."

"Are we going back to the fisherman's house?"

"No, we can't stay here any longer. I'll take you somewhere."

"But your injuries are still..."

"We can't worry about that now. Only by getting to Calabash Town as soon as possible can you be safe."

"Calabash Town? What kind of place is that?"

"You'll know when we get there." Fei Luo stood up from the boat and said, "Summon the Bone Dragon Chariot
, but don't let it get too big, lest it attract unwanted attention."

Xiao Xuan's heart stirred, and he said, "That's right! I have another chariot, what do you think?" He opened his Ruyi
Pouch, chanted a forbidden incantation, and heard several melodious neighs, summoning the Deer-like chariot.

Fei Luo was slightly surprised, her beautiful eyes fixed on the four strange beasts pulling the chariot: "A Deer-like chariot?"

Xiao Xuan nodded triumphantly and said, "Why don't we ride in this chariot? It's fast too, but
compared to the Bone Dragon, they won't be too conspicuous."

"How did you get this car?" Fei Luo asked.

"He Tianpeng gave it to me. I saved his life in Giant Bamboo Valley last time," Xiao Xuan said.

Fei Luo immediately guessed what was going on, and glared at him, saying, "He's not that generous. You must have extorted him,
right ?"

"I'm his savior!" Xiao Xuan chuckled, picked up the beauty, and leaped onto the car. With a flick of his right arm
, the Eight-Clawed Fiery Dragon Whip spun rapidly from his sleeve, exploding into a burst of flame in the air.

The four deer-like creatures instantly took to the air, and in the blink of an eye, they were several feet above the water, carrying the two of them as they sped towards the horizon.

"How far is Calabash Town from here? Which way do we go?" Xiao Xuan asked.

Fei Luo pointed in a direction and said, "It's about several hundred miles. Lu Shu's speed is decent;
we should arrive in two or three hours."

The carriage sped up, and suddenly, a bright purple light appeared in the sky ahead. Someone shouted, "Who goes there?
"

The two looked ahead and saw a purple cloud emerge from the darkness, upon which stood more than ten celestial
soldiers and generals clad in golden armor. They were greatly surprised.

"Heavens! These guys haven't left yet..." Xiao Xuan muttered, his face pale.

Fei Luo pulled out her purple rhinoceros hairpin, held it between her fingers, and whispered, "Get ready, we're going to charge."

"We are celestial soldiers from the upper realm! Stop the carriage immediately!" a celestial general on the purple cloud shouted.

"Charge!" Fei Luo shouted softly.

Xiao Xuan cracked his whip and steered the carriage diagonally towards the bottom of the purple cloud.

But the celestial soldiers and generals reacted with lightning speed. Several leaped from the purple clouds, brandishing their weapons, and jumped down to intercept them.
The leading celestial general shouted fiercely, "Hey! We are here, how dare you escape!"

The deer-like creature was extremely fast, and Xiao Xuan, seeing that it was too late to turn around, drove his chariot straight into it.

The celestial soldiers and generals roared angrily, and then a cold glint flashed as several long halberds came hurtling towards them like lightning.

Xiao Xuan quickly gathered his true energy, and with a muffled "boom," his eight-clawed flaming dragon whip exploded with raging flames,
as thick as a pillar of fire, instantly sweeping away the several halberds that were attacking him. He was stunned for a moment, not having time to think about
why it was so powerful. With a slight step, he leaped from his chariot seat onto the back of a deer-like creature, and
swung his precious whip fiercely, killing several celestial soldiers who scattered and retreated.

Taking advantage of the opening, the Deer-Shu Chariot sped past. A celestial general beside him, enraged, brandished his massive sword and slashed down with
lightning speed, the blade trailing streaks of blue light.

"Watch out!" Fei Luo cried, about to shoot out the Purple Rhinoceros Hairpin she held, when Xiao Xuan swiftly turned like a ghost
, his whip flashing like a fiery dragon, instantly slicing away the general's sword.

The general was startled and tried to retreat, but the Fiery Dragon Whip struck him heavily in the chest. With
a loud "clang," his breastplate shattered, and he staggered before plummeting headfirst from mid-air.

In the blink of an eye, the Deer-Shu Chariot had left the celestial soldiers far behind, speeding forward at breakneck speed.

"Why are these celestial soldiers and generals so useless?" Xiao Xuan murmured, still bewildered.

“It’s not that they’re not powerful, but…” Fei Luo looked at him thoughtfully and said, “Your power seems to have improved
a lot.”

Xiao Xuan felt a surge of excitement and laughed somewhat smugly, “In front of Grandpa Little Saint, even heavenly soldiers and generals
are nothing special.”

“However, this isn’t necessarily a good thing. I suspect it’s because of the Seven Absolute Cover.” Fei Luo said with a worried expression.

“Because of the Seven Absolute Cover?” Xiao Xuan asked, puzzled.

“Legend has it that the Seven Absolute Cover can absorb seven kinds of evil energy from heaven and earth and transform them into magical power to supply the wearer.”
Fei Luo paused and continued, “I think it must be because you wore the Seven Absolute Cover during the battle of Zeyang. On the battlefield, you absorbed
a large amount of bloody killing energy mixed with anger, resentment, cruelty, and so on, so your power has increased rapidly.”

Xiao Xuan was speechless, already believing it to be eight or nine parts. Ever since the battle of Zeyang City, he felt his body
filled with unprecedented power, surging like the sea, but his mind was inexplicably restless. For example,
he had that strange dream last night.

“The Seven Absolutes Mask is indeed extraordinary,” Fei Luo said.

Xiao Xuan chuckled dryly and said, “Even so, it’s good. In any case, my power has increased.”

Fei Luo gazed at him intently and said, “Although your power has increased, it relies on various evil forces. This will
bring great hidden dangers to your future cultivation. What worries me even more is that these evil forces may affect your mind
and cause you to stray from the righteous path.”

Xiao Xuan became more and more alarmed as he listened, but he still pretended to be relaxed and laughed, “I won’t wear that mask anymore.”

Fei Luo nodded and said, “Don’t touch that thing unless absolutely necessary.” She put the purple rhinoceros hairpin back in her hair,
looked around, and pointed in a direction, saying, “Go that way, let’s go around to Calabash Town again.”

Xiao Xuan knew that this was to get rid of the pursuit, so he did as she said and turned the Deer-Shu carriage around.

The next two hours passed peacefully, and the mountains and rivers flew by one by one.

Fei Luo sat cross-legged in the carriage, seizing the time to circulate her internal energy to heal her injuries.

"Looks like everything's alright," Xiao Xuan said cheerfully. "Are we almost at Calabash Town?"

"Yes, it's just ahead," Fei Luo replied.

Xiao Xuan looked up and saw a large mountain blocking the way. He asked, puzzled, "Why don't I see any town
? The mountain is just full of rocks and trees."

"The town is in the valley. Raise the carriage, and you'll see it when you reach the summit," Fei Luo said.

Xiao Xuan drove the carriage up, flying to the summit. The view ahead suddenly opened up, revealing a vast valley nestled among the mountains.
Through the thin, floating mist, he could see crisscrossing rivers, scattered houses, and twinkling lights—
it vaguely resembled a town.

"What a strange place! It's surrounded by high mountains, and it seems like there's no way in or out of this town," Xiao Xuan
asked in surprise.

"There is, and it's quite large, enough for large caravans to pass through. But it's hidden deep inside the mountain, and
there are sentries guarding it. Ordinary people can't get in here," Fei Luo said.

"Ordinary people can't get here? What kind of place is Calabash Town?" Xiao Xuan became even more curious.

“Speaking of another place, you might know it.”

“What place?”

“Crystal Pool.”

“Ah! Is it Crystal Pool, one of the nineteen spiritual veins of the land?” Xiao Xuan exclaimed.

“Yes, Crystal Pool is right here in Calabash Town.” Fei Luo pointed down and said, “Look, that reflective place
is it.”

Xiao Xuan looked down and indeed saw a small, shining dot in the center of the town, which seemed to be a pool, but because it was
far away, it was difficult to judge its size.

"I've heard that each of the nineteen spiritual veins is guarded by immortals and demons. For example, Dream Nest belongs to our Xuan Sect, Happy Spring to the Demon Realm, and Tai
Bi to the Seven Absolute Realms. Which sect of immortals and demons guards this Crystal Pool?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"For thousands of years, this place has been occupied by the old immortal Kongkong, a disciple of the Jie Sect and a friend of the Tongtian Sect Master."

"Ah, it's this Holy Ancestor!" Xiao Xuan's heart trembled.

"It is said that this ancestor saw through the calamity of ten thousand immortals and, during the Investiture of the Gods, remained secluded from beginning to end . Therefore
, he was the only one in the Jie Sect to escape the massacre." Fei Luo continued.

"Ah! In that case, isn't this Holy Ancestor even more enlightened than the Tongtian Sect Master?" Xiao Xuan said.

"It is said that his cultivation was no less than that of the Tongtian Sect Master. He joined the Jie Sect only to peek into Hongjun's Dao techniques
. Moreover, he was always indifferent to worldly affairs and could only delve into the mysteries of the universe. It's not surprising that he saw a little more and a little further than the Tongtian Sect Master
." Fei Luo said.

"Amazing! Amazing!" Xiao Xuan praised sincerely.

“That goes without saying. After the Investiture of the Gods, the Tongtian Sect Leader returned with Hongjun, and the Jie Sect gradually declined. But after
the Old Immortal Kongkong occupied this Crystal Pool, no one in heaven or earth dared to covet this place. Moreover, the Jie Sect's vitality
has begun to recover rapidly.”

Xiao Xuan suddenly asked, “Uncle-Master, do you know this Holy Ancestor?”

“I’ve never even seen him, how could I know this Holy Ancestor?” Fei Luo shook her head.

“Then… can we come here freely?” Xiao Xuan asked.

"The Old Immortal Kongkong has a great fondness for rare and precious treasures. Therefore, he used this crystal pool as bait to build this town to collect
treasures from heaven and earth. Few mortals know of this place, but it is famous among gods, immortals, demons, and monsters.
Since the town was built, countless immortals, demons, and monsters have come here to refine, exchange treasures, and trade various rare materials. Some have
even settled here and built businesses. Now, this place has become
a paradise where material refiners, weapon refiners, talisman refiners, armor tamers, spirit beast masters, qi refiners, array masters, mechanism masters... and treasure merchants from all realms linger and forget to leave."

"Using the crystal pool as bait?" Xiao Xuan couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence for a moment.

"Yes, the mud from Crystal Pool is called 'Crystal Lava,' and it has unique auxiliary effects on forging. Like the Azure Jade produced in
our Dream Nest, it's an excellent material for refining treasures. Moreover, because of Crystal Pool,
a strange barrier has formed in this area at some point. Within this barrier, many materials with
conflicting can be fused and stabilized. To date, many magical treasures and divine weapons that cannot be forged elsewhere
have been successfully forged here," Fei Luo explained.

"So Crystal Pool has this wonder! No wonder it attracts so many people!" Xiao Xuan was very excited.
He thought that the reason why the Invincible General he painstakingly forged on Xiaoyao Peak backfired was probably because of the conflict between the Crimson Python's Tongue and the Jade Essence, as pointed out by
Li Mengtang. If he had come to this Calabash Town that day,
he might have been able to successfully forge the Invincible General, which cost him countless rare materials.

"However, not everyone can come to Calabash Town," Fei Luo said.

"Oh, who can't come?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"Immortals, saints, Taoists, and laypeople may enter, as may demons and monsters, but disciples of the Chan Sect, monks and Buddhas of the Western Paradise, and gods of the Heavenly Court
are not allowed to enter," Fei Luo replied.

Xiao Xuan was about to ask a question, but then understood and said, "Is this because of the Investiture of the Gods?"

Fei Luo nodded.

Xiao Xuan thought for a moment and then said, "I understand that disciples of the Chan Sect, monks and Buddhas of the Western Paradise have a grudge against the Jie Sect and shouldn't be allowed to come,
but why can't people from the Heavenly Court come either?"

"Because there are many disciples of the Chan Sect in the Heavenly Court, and they are on good terms with the West, and are now subtly
controlled by these two sects," Fei Luo replied.

"Ah!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed, "I understand, that's why you brought me here!"

Fei Luo smiled and said, "Not only that, we also need to find someone here. If he agrees to protect you
, many people won't be able to do anything to you."

"Who is it?" Xiao Xuan asked hurriedly.

Fei Luo didn't answer, only saying, "Alright, let's go down."

Suddenly, a flash of fire appeared on the distant horizon. The two were startled, and before they could recover, another flash of fire appeared in the darkness
, this time much closer.

Fei Luo's expression changed, and she said, "Quick, let's go! Someone's chasing us!"

Xiao Xuan hurriedly swung his Flaming Dragon Whip, urging the deer-like creature towards the valley floor.

Just then, a streak of flame streaked across from above, falling like a meteor, abruptly stopping in front of them
. A small figure was slowly outlined by the flames of the two wheels burning beneath its feet.

"Nezha... Nezha!" Xiao Xuan cried out in a trembling voice.

Fei Luo took a deep breath and reached her hand to her temples.

Nezha stared at them with his spear lowered, coldly saying, "Is the Primordial Mystery on you?"

"N-no, what is the Primordial Mystery? And who are you, brother?" Xiao Xuan blinked.

"Don't play dumb with me. Master Xu has clearly divined the location of the Primordial Mystery, otherwise
I wouldn't have tracked it here." Nezha's voice was clear, yet chilling.

Seeing he couldn't deny it, Xiao Xuan steeled himself and shouted, "That's right, the Primordial Mystery is on me
! What are you going to do about it?"

"Hand it over," Nezha said expressionlessly.

"Why should I hand it over to you?" Xiao Xuan retorted angrily.

"The Primordial Mystery was originally a sacred treasure of the Upper Realm, stolen by demons and lost for many years. This time, the Heavenly Court divined that the sacred treasure
had reappeared, and specially ordered me to come and retrieve it. As for you, you must also come back to the Heavenly Court with me to explain why the sacred treasure is
in your hands," Nezha said.

Although Xiao Xuan was timid, upon hearing this, he was furious and said angrily, "Nonsense! This is clearly
mine, I've had it since I was born, how could it belong to the Heavenly Court! If you want to take it, just say
so!"

Nezha stared coldly at him, his expression growing increasingly fierce. He slowly raised his spear, the bright red tassel on the neck of the spear
began to dance gracefully, and faint flames seemed to emanate from the spear.

"This is the famous Fire-Tipped Spear..." Xiao Xuan panicked for a moment, looking around. Seeing that he was alone
, he thought to himself, "It must be that this guy's fire wheels are fast, leaving the heavenly soldiers and generals behind...
And my power has improved a lot, I might be able to hold my own against him."

Thinking of this, he felt a little more at ease and smiled, "It seems that only you came, huh? Are you really here to take it
?"

"One last question, hand it over or not?" Nezha's face was like frost, the raised tip of his spear already pointing at him.

"No." Xiao Xuanyi responded, quickly channeling his true fire energy and continuously injecting it into the eight-clawed flaming dragon
whip wrapped around his arm.

Fei Luo focused her mind, lowering her eyes to observe her inner thoughts, quietly gathering drops of spiritual energy from her Niwan Palace.

Suddenly, her spear trembled, and a fire dragon soared into the night sky, instantly attacking the Deer-Shu chariot, the scorching
heat hitting their faces.

Xiao Xuan's eyes widened, suddenly realizing that in terms of both power and speed, his combat strength was simply
not .

The second time, the gatekeeper

saw the flames intensify, and the Eight-Clawed Flame Dragon Whip whirled out from Xiao Xuan's sleeve, colliding head-on with the attacking fire dragon, producing a dense and ear-piercing metallic clang.
The fire dragon revealed its true form, and the dozen or so lightning-fast thrusts of the Fire-Tipped Spear were all blocked, not only failing to break through the Flame Dragon Whip's defense, but also being slightly scattered by the shock.
Nezha's heart trembled, and before Zhao Lao could react, he had already withdrawn his spear and returned to defense, his fire wheels spinning rapidly, changing to a flanking attack.
This exchange was truly unexpected, and Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, thinking, "So I can actually fight him! My skills have really improved a lot." Excited, he immediately unleashed his Flaming Dragon Whip with both long and short attacks, managing to attack and defend with skillful maneuvering.
Suddenly, Fei Luo beside him silently chanted a spell, her fingertips carrying a faint earthy yellow halo that traced several lines on Xiao Xuan's body. Then, the earthy yellow halo transformed into a bright purple, and she traced lines towards his shoulder wells, shin beak, tailbone, and central points, casting a Storm Armor spell and lightning bolt on him. Xiao Xuan was
instantly empowered, his confidence soaring, and his ferocity increasing dramatically. He wielded the Flaming Dragon Whip like a soaring fire dragon, with crimson flames filling the sky and pillars of fire crisscrossing the air, its power even surpassing that of Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear.
Nezha, riding his Golden Wind-Fire Wheels, circled and attacked the Deer-Shu Chariot, launching several powerful attacks but finding no opening. He couldn't help but wonder, "Who is this kid's teacher? Where does he cultivate?" "Such skill!"
Xiao Xuan grew more and more spirited with each battle, his heart filled with pride: "Heh! I never thought I, Cui Xiao Xuan, could actually contend with the renowned Third Prince of the Heavenly King! When I return to Thousand Green Mountain, I'll definitely brag about it to Hei Wuba and the others!"
The man and the god fought fiercely for dozens of rounds, but Nezha couldn't gain the upper hand at all. Frustrated, he suddenly shouted "Hey!" and his body shook with thunderous apparition, revealing his three-headed, six-armed form. His indigo face was ferocious, and he held various strange weapons in his hands, some flowing with golden light, some crackling with lightning, and some spewing flames, striking out like a storm.
Xiao Xuan immediately felt the overwhelming pressure. After only a few rounds, his muscles were numb and his bones were weak, his hands and feet were clumsy, and he could barely breathe. Terrified, seeing that he couldn't defend himself, he suddenly shouted: "Stop!" Nezha
refused to stop, only slightly slowing his attack, and sneered, "So you want to surrender?"
Xiao Xuan, sweating profusely, cried out, "You are a great god from the upper realm, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"
"Ridiculed for what?" Nezha asked.
"We are all dignified men, and should settle our differences with courage and strength. You, however, resort to extortion and trickery. You are truly despicable and shameless, and even your victory is not honorable!" Xiao Xuan shouted.
Nezha laughed arrogantly, "Nonsense, what use have I had? Let me tell you the truth, if I were to unleash their true power, this seven-foot-long Hun Tian Ling alone would be enough to shake the Dragon Palace of the East Sea. At this moment, there is no time for you to speak!" As he spoke, he attacked without mercy, his offensive suddenly becoming more rapid.
Xiao Xuan struggled to stay upright, his body swaying from side to side by countless immense forces. He narrowly escaped being struck by the Fire-Tipped Spear several times. In his anxiety, he glanced at Fei Luo and saw her subtly shake the Purple Rhinoceros Hairpin she held in her hand. A glimmer of hope ignited in his heart, and he called out to Nezha, "Hey! You're a great god from the Three Altars of the Sea, fighting me is already bullying the weak. One-on-one is already shameful enough, how can you now be ganging up on me? Aren't you ashamed?
" "Bah! How am I ganging up on you?" Nezha retorted angrily.
"Three of you against one of me, isn't that ganging up on me?" Xiao Xuan saw Fei Luo loosen her grip, and the Purple Rhinoceros Hairpin disappeared. He hurriedly continued his charade to distract Nezha.
Nezha was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "Fool! This is a celestial manifestation, don't you understand?"

Just then, Xiao Xuan saw a purple light suddenly appear behind Nezha, silently shooting towards him. He quickly shouted, "Stop! Stop! Stop! That's enough! I surrender, the sacred treasure is yours!" " Finally

, we've driven this guy away!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed joyfully. Turning his head, he suddenly saw Fei Luo's pale face and quickly went to support her, asking in alarm, "Uncle-Master, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just used up some spiritual energy..." Fei Luo replied weakly, putting away her purple rhinoceros hairpin, and continued, "Let's go down quickly. As long as we enter the area of Calabash Town, these heavenly soldiers won't dare to follow."

"Okay," Xiao Xuan replied. Just as they were about to lower the chariot, they suddenly noticed two balls of flame swirling in the air. An idea struck them, and they immediately whipped their whips, catching the flames. The fire vanished, revealing two wheels engraved with runes – the Golden Wind-Fire Wheels that Nezha had dropped.

"Hurry up, don't be greedy now!" Fei Luo said irritably.

"I'm going!" Xiao Xuan pulled hard, snatching the wheels. He reached out to catch them, but was immediately burned and cried out. He quickly chanted a forbidden incantation, opened his magic pouch, and put the Wind-Fire Wheels inside. Satisfied, he then drove the chariot down into the valley.

The waterways and houses at the bottom of the valley became increasingly clear. As they drew closer, Xiao Xuan realized it was a vast town.

Near the ground, Fei Luo said, "Let's find a secluded place to descend so as not to disturb others."

Xiao Xuan agreed and drove the chariot down the mountain, landing in a densely wooded area. The two got out of the carriage. Xiao Xuan put the Deer-Shu Carriage into his Ruyi Pouch and helped Fei Luo walk towards the town.

"Strange..." Fei Luo suddenly said.

"Strange what?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"I was wondering, you've been down the mountain for several days now, why did it only alert the Heavenly Court now? And, we've clearly gone in a huge circle, how could Nezha catch up so quickly?" Fei Luo pondered.

"Didn't that guy say he was a celestial master who could divine? Besides, legend has it that the Heavenly Court has eyes that can see a thousand miles and ears that can hear the wind, so tracking us shouldn't be too difficult," Xiao Xuan said.

"I mean, the Primordial Mystery is something you were born with, why did it only come to the Heavenly Court's attention now?"

Xiao Xuan paused, then said, "That's right, the Primordial Mystery has always been with me..." “

Last time, when your third senior uncle and I went up Xiaoyao Peak, we found a strange barrier on the peak, seemingly capable of concealing spiritual energy. At the time, we thought it was a setup by the sect leader to prevent the leakage of the Dream Nest's energy.” Fei Luo paused for a moment, then said, “Now that I think about it, that barrier was very likely set up by your master to prevent anyone with ulterior motives from discovering the Innate Tai Xuan within you.”

Xiao Xuan stammered, and after a long while, he said, “Is the Innate Tai Xuan within me easy for others to sense?”

“The Innate Tai Xuan has a very unique aura. Your third senior uncle and I sensed it as soon as we met you, but we didn’t know what it was. However, your sixth senior uncle was deeply fascinated by the Innate Tai Xuan, and thus discovered your background, but…” At this point, Fei Luo frowned.

“But what?” Xiao Xuan asked.

“But why didn’t he notice it when he first saw you?” Fei Luo asked, puzzled.

“Ah!” "Xiao Xuan exclaimed, 'I understand! I understand now! It must be because of that handkerchief!'

'What handkerchief?' Fei Luo asked, puzzled.

Xiao Xuan quickly chanted an incantation, opened his Ruyi Pouch, summoned the Skeleton Dragon, and rummaged around in the carriage seat, soon finding the Flame-Washing Silk that had fallen in the corner. He handed it to Fei Luo, saying, 'Uncle-Master, take a look at this. Is there anything unusual about it?'

Fei Luo took it, examined it carefully, and immediately said, 'This handkerchief is made from the fur of a Firelight Beast. It has the effect of enhancing the user's fire element potential. Hmm? It seems to be blessed... blessed with the spiritual energy concealment spell I taught.'"

"No wonder! No wonder!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed, tilting his head back to the sky, his eyes brimming with tears. "I finally understand my master's good intentions!"

"What happened?" Fei Luo asked.

Xiao Xuan then recounted how Cui Caiting had given him the Flame-Washing Garment before he descended the mountain, instructing him to always wear it around his waist.

"I see!" Fei Luo exclaimed in realization. "I understand now. Could it be that you didn't wear this garment around your waist that morning, which is why your sixth uncle sensed the Primordial Mystery?"

Xiao Xuan nodded, recalling Cui Caiting's many good intentions, and felt a surge of regret. "If I hadn't indulged in pleasure that night and forgotten my master's words, I wouldn't be expelled from the sect and forced to flee today!" "

Also, because you haven't worn this garment around your waist these past two days, the Heavenly Court was able to track you through divination. That's why, despite our extensive detours, we couldn't shake off the Heavenly Soldiers' pursuit," Fei Luo continued.

Xiao Xuan broke out in a cold sweat.

"So Ninth Senior Sister made this handkerchief with such care..." Fei Luo sighed. "Tie it on first, and don't take it off again."

Xiao Xuan unbuckled his belt, loosened his clothes, and, with tears welling in his eyes, tightly re-tied the handkerchief around his waist.

Fei Luo glanced at him, but pretended not to notice, and said happily, "That's great! With this handkerchief, we can breathe a huge sigh of relief."

Under the moonlight, the two entered the town. They saw waterways, stone bridges, and roads paved with bluestone slabs. On both sides were houses with black tiles and white walls, and courtyards filled with lush greenery—a scene of Jiangnan water town charm.

Xiao Xuan immediately fell in love with the place, looking around with delight at everything. He exclaimed, "It's much more prosperous than our small town at the foot of Qiancui Mountain! Even Zeyang City isn't as beautiful as this!"

Fei Luo looked slightly tired and said, "Let's find a place to rest first, and then go look for people tomorrow."

"Okay, let's quickly find something to eat, my stomach is growling!" Xiao Xuan said happily, rubbing his belly.

The two walked along the river and soon saw an inn with a wine pole and lanterns hanging at the bridgehead.

"This will do," Fei Luo said.

When they arrived at the inn, they saw that it was decorated in a very rich and elegant style with red railings, bamboo lanterns, and water jars. A pair of couplets hung on both sides of the door, which read: "Why seek a peach garden a thousand miles away? Unintentionally, we have encountered a fairyland here." It was quite elegant. But when they looked up further, they saw the four large characters "Pig's Inn" written on the plaque. Xiao Xuan chuckled: "How can it be called that? Is the owner's surname Pig?" Perhaps

it was late, but the two went inside and found the shop nearly empty. Xiao Xuan picked a seat by the window, pulled out a chair for Fei Luo, and, seeing no one was there to greet her, called out loudly towards the counter, "Is the shopkeeper here? We have a customer!"

"Coming! What would you like, sir?" A waiter suddenly appeared beside Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan turned around and was startled. The waiter had a fat head, big ears, and a hairy face with a long, protruding snout—a veritable pig-headed man!

"What would you like, sir?" the waiter asked again in a muffled voice, his eyelids half-closed and drool dripping from his mouth, as if still dreaming.

"Shui'er always calls me pig-headed, this is the real pig-headed man..." Xiao Xuan came to her senses and asked, "What do you have to eat here?"

"We have pig's trotters, paper-wrapped crab, stir-fried snails, stewed shrimp, three-flavor dumplings, peanut cake, and clay pot porridge..." "The waiter yawned and rattled off the details.

"Pig's trotters? Pig... What are pig's trotters?" Xiao Xuan asked, staring at the large pig's head in front of him, wondering if the dish was made with his own trotters.

"It's braised beef tendon, made with a secret sauce, carefully selected fennel, brown sugar, rice wine, and countless other seasonings, simmered over a low flame for several nights. It's fragrant, chewy, and flavorful, rich but not greasy, tender but not mushy. It's the most famous signature dish of our Pig Family Inn. Everyone who comes to Hulu Town has to try it." The waiter seemed to perk up a bit as he spoke with pride.

"It really isn't pig's trotters..." Xiao Xuan turned to Fei Luo and asked, "Uncle-Master, what would you like to eat?"

"Anything is fine, I'd like something light." Fei Luo replied.

"Do you have any light side dishes here?" Xiao Xuan asked the waiter again. The waiter then named a few dishes.

Xiao Xuan replied, "These are the side dishes I'll have, along with a pig's trotter and some clay pot porridge, and... a pot of wine too. "

The waiter said "Oh," and left as if in a daze.

"This guy's still half asleep. I wonder if he'll tell the cook the wrong things I ordered?" Xiao Xuan worried, turning to Fei Luo and saying, "Could this inn be run by a pig demon?"

"Hmm, nothing strange about it. In this town, you wouldn't be surprised if you saw the Bull Demon King." Fei Luo rested her chin on her hand, gazing thoughtfully out the window.
The inn was built along the river, mostly on a bridge. Looking out the window, the narrow river stretched straight into the distance, appearing incredibly serene and tranquil under the moonlight.

"The Bull Demon King?" Xiao Xuan paused, "Wasn't that demon king captured by the Heavenly Court and escorted to the West?" "

He fled long ago, running off to surrender to the Little Demon Queen in the Demon Realm. The Heavenly Court can do nothing about it." Fei Luo bid farewell, "I heard that this Demon King likes this place very much and occasionally comes here to seek pleasure."

"Little Demon Queen..." Xiao Xuan was lost in thought for a moment, then asked, "My second senior sister said that this Little Demon Queen is very powerful. It seems that even the Heavenly Court doesn't dare to offend her easily, is that right?"

Fei Luo nodded, "Of course, the Little Demon Queen is the supreme ruler of the Demon Realm, a figure on par with the Queen Mother of the West in the Heavenly Realm and the Supreme Holy Mother of our sect, these innate true saints. She commands thousands of demon kings and spirits. How could the Heavenly Court dare to touch her?"

Xiao Xuan listened with longing and exclaimed, "I never imagined that besides gods and Buddhas, there would be such a figure in the world..."

As they talked, not long after, dishes and wine were served one after another. Fei Luo drank her porridge, occasionally picking up a few small dishes, while Xiao Xuan wolfed down his food with great relish.

"These pig's trotters are truly delicious! Uncle, why aren't you eating?" Xiao Xuan swallowed a large mouthful of wine with great satisfaction.

Fei Luo shook her head and said, "I have no appetite, it's too greasy." "

Not greasy at all. These trotters only look fatty, but they're not greasy at all, they're very delicious." Just as Xiao Xuan was trying to persuade her, they suddenly heard a commotion outside. Someone shouted loudly, "Manager, come quickly and serve us! We all need to eat and stay at the inn!"

Someone immediately responded from behind the counter. A pig-headed man dressed in fine silk, his body trembling with fat, strode out to greet them. In the blink of an eye, twenty or thirty people rushed in through the door. They were a group of blue-faced, fanged monsters, some tall, some short, some fat, some thin, with different skin and hair, but all dressed in tight-fitting armor, carrying either spears or axes.

The hall immediately became chaotic, with several pig-headed waiters appearing out of nowhere to serve tea and water to the guests.

Seeing this group of monsters, Xiao Xuan suddenly missed his brothers and sisters on Thousand Green Mountain, and a feeling of warmth welled up in his heart.

Just then, a sweet, delicate voice rang out from outside: "This is it! Sister, come quickly!"

As soon as the words left her lips, two girls fluttered in like colorful butterflies through the doorway. One wore purple, the other green; both were dressed in beautiful, vibrant clothes, making them stand out among the group of hideous monsters.

"Boss! Where's the boss?" the girl in green called out.

The fat, trembling pig-headed man was busy assigning waiters to serve customers and casually replied, "Coming."

A burly man, nearly half his height, walked over, grabbed him by the chest, and snarled, "Didn't you hear our grandma calling you?"

The pig-headed man was startled and hurriedly said, "I heard you, I heard you! I'll be right there, I'll be right there." Only then did the burly man release him. The pig-headed man quickly went to the two girls, his face beaming, and said, "What can I do for you, ladies?"

The two girls glanced at him, and the one dressed in purple said, "Are you the owner here?"

"Yes, yes, I am the owner of the Pig Family Inn. Everyone calls me Pig Haha," the pig-headed man replied respectfully.

"Tell me, are your trotters really delicious?" the girl in purple asked.

"Delicious, delicious! Our trotters are the most authentic and genuine in Calabash Town," Pig Haha said with a beaming smile.

"Good, go and get them quickly. A big basin for each table, and bring up whatever other delicious food you have." After saying this, the girl in purple and her sister went inside, and all the monsters made way for them, leaving them the best seats.

A wolf-headed man beside him bared his sharp, cone-like teeth at Pig Haha and snarled, "Listen up, go and serve me well. If our grandma is satisfied, you'll be richly rewarded; otherwise... tonight we'll tear your shop to pieces!"

Pig Haha readily agreed and hurried off to the inner room.

The arrival of this group of monsters instantly filled the previously empty hall, replacing the previous tranquility with clamor. Fei Luo frowned slightly, burying her head in her porridge. Xiao Xuan, however, was completely captivated by the two girls, finding them both pleasing to the eye and incredibly intriguing: "Who are these two girls? They look so delicate and tender, yet they seem to be the leader of this group of monsters..." "
Soon, plates of fragrant pig's trotters and various dishes were served in a continuous stream. The monsters devoured them, even the two girls, oblivious to their surroundings, lifted their sleeves high, revealing their snow-white arms, grabbing trotters with their hands and eating with gusto, their faces beaming with delight. Their lips and hands were greasy and shiny, and when they got excited, they joined the other monsters in drinking, showing no trace of ladylike behavior.

'Their eating manners are comparable to pouring water...' Xiao Xuan felt a growing sense of familiarity, staring blankly at the two girls. Suddenly, a sadness welled up in his heart: 'I wonder how Master and the others are? What are they doing at this time?'

Suddenly, the girl in green noticed Xiao Xuan's gaze, her smile froze, and her beautiful eyes glared fiercely at him. Xiao Xuan was stunned, not reacting for a moment."

At this moment, the girl in purple followed the gaze of the girl in green and looked over. Her watery eyes brazenly sized up Xiao Xuan, then she smiled smugly and said something to the girl in green.

The girl in green burst into laughter, and she and the girl in purple laughed simultaneously, their beautiful faces full of mockery and disdain.

Only then did Xiao Xuan realize their hostility, and her face suddenly flushed red. She was angry: 'What are you laughing at! My martial aunt, my Shui'er, any of my senior sisters are a million times prettier than you!' She immediately turned her head away, no longer looking at the two girls.

Zhu Haha came out from the inner room, walked to the two girls, personally poured wine and served them, and asked with a smile, 'Are you two satisfied with your meal?'

'It's alright,' the girl in green replied.

'That's good, that's good. Please let us know if you need anything else,' Zhu Haha said.

'By the way, I wanted to ask you, I heard that the price of Crystal Lake has gone up again recently?' the girl in purple asked.

'Are you here to buy Crystal Lake?' "No, no, that's really unfortunate. The price went up again yesterday."

"Up again?" the girl in purple exclaimed, widening her eyes. "Is it because the production has decreased again?"

"Yes, for some reason, the production of Crystal Lake has been declining for the past few months..." "But there was another reason for yesterday's price increase."

"What reason?" the girl in green asked.

"Yesterday, the Marquis of Fengtian sent people into the valley and bought up a large amount of Crystal Lake in the town, so the price skyrocketed," the girl in green said.

Upon hearing the words "Marquis of Fengtian," Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be Shui'er's father?"

"Marquis of Fengtian? Who is the Marquis of Fengtian?" the girl in green asked.

"Oh dear! You're from outside, yet you don't even know who the Marquis of Fengtian is?" The girl in green looked astonished.

The girl in green raised an eyebrow and said, "If you don't know, you don't know! Is that Marquis Fengtian so great?"

Xiao Xuan thought to himself, "So these demons came from the deep mountains and forests..."

Pig Haha chuckled and said, "The Marquis Fengtian is none other than the famous general Cheng Zhaoqi. He commands 100,000 troops, is stationed in Zhongzhou, and is one of the four pillars of the current dynasty."

"They're really talking about Shui'er's father!" Xiao Xuan quickly perked up his ears.
The two girls only said "Oh," without showing any emotion. The girl in purple said calmly, "Why does that Cheng Zhaoqi need to buy so much crystal water?" "

My two grandmothers don't know, Marquis Nan'an, Nangong Yang, has rebelled, and Cheng Zhaoqi has been ordered to suppress him. They are currently fighting a great battle in Yunzhou. I heard that both sides have invited many experts and strange talents, each using ingenious strategies and tactics, and the battle is fierce and chaotic." Pig Haha said.

Xiao Xuan was stunned.

Pig Haha continued, "Because of the war, both sides are plundering war supplies on a massive scale, causing prices to skyrocket and panic to rise in several neighboring states."

"Hey! After all this talk, you haven't even said why the Marquis of

Fengtian wants to buy Crystal Lake." The girl in purple frowned. Pig Haha said, "I've heard rumors that Nangong Yang hired a master to set up a terrifying array at Shuangling Pass, blocking the heartland of Yunzhou's wealth and grain reserves. Cheng Zhaoqi not only failed to break through it repeatedly but also suffered heavy losses. So he brought in his third wife, Lady Baibao, intending to forge a celestial weapon to break the array, and the weapon used in this celestial weapon needs to be forged from Crystal Lake..."

"Lady Baibao!" The two girls exclaimed in unison. The girl in purple said, "You mean Lady Baibao is Cheng Zhaoqi's wife?"

"Yes, the Marquis of Fengtian's five wives are all incredibly beautiful and have impressive backgrounds!" "Pig Haha said with envy, drool almost dripping from the corner of his mouth.

'Shui'er's mother is here too!' Xiao Xuan felt a surge of inexplicable excitement, then a slight surprise: 'Shui'er's father has more than one wife?'

The girl in green murmured to herself: 'So such a big thing happened outside, it actually attracted the attention of Lady Baibao.'

Pig Haha, getting carried away, continued: 'Besides this, two other extraordinary things have happened outside recently, would you two ladies be interested in hearing about them?'
'Go ahead and tell me, we're free right now anyway,' the girl in purple said, taking a sip of wine.

'The first one is that the Seven Absolutes have reappeared in the world,' Pig Haha said.

In the third chapter,

Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat, noticing that Fei Luo was also listening intently."

"The Seven Absolute Cover!" The two girls were moved. The girl in purple said, "Isn't it said that the Seven Absolute Cover was destroyed by the Black Fox?"

"That's what they say, but no one actually saw it, right?" Pig Haha paused and said, "I wonder if you two grandmothers have heard that recently, evil spirits were causing trouble in the Great Swamp area and launched a major attack on Zeyang City. Just when disaster was imminent, a person wearing the Seven Absolute Cover suddenly appeared and saved Zeyang from the calamity."
"Is that so? Who was that person wearing the Seven Absolute Cover?" the girl in green asked.

"No one knows, but many people are speculating that that person is most likely the son of the Seven Absolute Demon Lord, the current ruler of the Seven Absolute Realm, the Little Demon Lord." Pig Haha said.

Xiao Xuan was stunned.

"The Little Demon Lord!" The two girls gasped softly.

"Is that possible?" the girl in purple said, "I heard that the Little Demon Lord was ambushed by the rebels of the Seven Absolute Realm three years ago and was seriously injured and crippled. How could he possibly come out and show his skills?"

"So the two grandmothers know quite a lot," Pig Haha laughed. "I don't know much about this either, but several people from outside are saying that the Seven Realms are full of experts and countless skilled healers. Perhaps the Little Demon Lord has already been cured? Otherwise, who would still possess the Seven Realms Cover? Who could still control the Seven Realms Cover?"

"If it really is the Little Demon Lord, and the Seven Realms Cover still exists, I'm afraid there will be another bloodbath outside..." the girl in purple murmured.

"What is the other earth-shattering event?" the girl in green asked Pig Haha.

"The second one..." Pig Haha said, "That's an even bigger event, no less significant than the appearance of the Little Demon Lord and the Seven Realms Cover..."

"Tell me quickly, stop being so mysterious!" the girl in green scolded.

"Yes, yes!" Pig Haha hurriedly said, "The second one is that a descendant of a great demon even more powerful than the Seven Realms Demon Lord has appeared!"

Xiao Xuan's heart suddenly raced.

"Which great demon?" the girl in green roared. "If you keep beating around the bush, I'll chop you up like a fat pig and eat you with my wine!"

Pig Haha hurriedly replied, "It's the great demon you just mentioned, the one who destroyed the Seven Absolutes, Xuanhu Xuanxuanzi!" "Xuanxuanzi!" The two girls trembled.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded, and he sat up abruptly.

"That's right, it's Xuanhu Xuanxuanzi who wreaked havoc in the Three Realms back then!" Pig Haha responded.

"His descendants have appeared? He has descendants?" the girl in purple asked.

"That's right! Xuanhu not only has descendants, but they've been found! Grandmas, guess where Xuanhu's descendants have been hiding?" Pig Haha said, unknowingly playing coy again.

"I won't guess!" The two girls raised their eyebrows, their faces frosty.

Pig Haha was startled and quickly said, "Alright, alright, I won't guess. It turns out that Xuanhu's descendants have been hiding under the White-Haired Fairy's tutelage as disciples of the Xuan Sect!" “Nonsense! ”

the girl in green scolded sweetly, “Xuanhu and Chongyuanzi are like oil and water. When the Heavenly Court and the Western Paradise launched a major campaign against Xuanhu, the Xuan Sect also got involved. How could his descendants possibly become disciples of the Xuan Sect?”

Xiao Xuan was taken aback and looked up at Feiluo.

Feiluo closed her eyes and remained silent, whether resting or listening, it was unclear.

Zhu Haha said, “I don’t know either, but this news was spread by Young Master He of Dangmo Fortress. It is said that he witnessed it with his own eyes. At that time, the Xuan Sect’s protector, Tianwai Guyan, wanted to clean up the sect, but was obstructed by Baishou Xianniang, who protected her, thus allowing the little Xuanhu to escape.”

“He Tianpeng!” Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth, only then realizing that the news that he was a descendant of Xuanxuanzi had spread so quickly because it was all He Tianpeng’s doing.

“Ah, I heard that Tianwai Guyan’s two arms were crippled by Xuanhu. Now that they have found Xuanhu’s descendants, they will naturally not let them go easily.” "The girl in purple said.

Xiao Xuan's heart was filled with shock, and he felt more and more that there were countless secrets related to him that he was still unaware of.

"Also, it is said that the little fox carries the supreme treasure of the Primordial Mystery, which is fought over by all realms. There are already countless people hunting him." Pig Haha continued.

"Really?" The girl in green turned to the girl in purple and smiled, "If that little fox really has the Primordial Mystery, let's go and catch him too."

Xiao Xuan was both surprised and annoyed, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly. Suddenly, he felt a warmth in his hand. It turned out that Fei Luo had grabbed him.

"I don't believe that. If that fox really has the Primordial Mystery, it would never be our turn." The girl in purple yawned and said, "Ah, after traveling so far, I'm really exhausted."

"Me too, I really want to sleep." The girl in green lazily hummed, then turned to Pig Haha and said, "I don't want to hear these flowery stories anymore. Hurry up and arrange the rooms. We want the best and cleanest ones."

"No problem, I guarantee both ladies will be satisfied." Pig Haha nodded and bowed, then hurried off.

A moment later, Pig Haha returned, beaming, and said, "The rooms are all arranged. Both ladies and gentlemen can go and rest now."
The two girls then got up and, led by the waiter, went to the inner room with a swaying gait. Before leaving, the girl in green didn't forget to arrogantly throw a mocking glare at Xiao Xuan. The rest of the spirits were still in high spirits, and most of them remained in the hall to continue eating, drinking, and having fun.

"I wonder what these two little yellow-haired girls are? They dare to threaten to capture me!" Xiao Xuan said angrily.

"Don't pay them any attention. They're just two flying little demons." Fei Luo said.

"Two flying little demons?"

"Why don't you use your Eye of No Form to take a look and you'll know?" Upon hearing this

, Xiao Xuan quickly channeled his spiritual energy and activated his Eye of No Form. He immediately saw a pair of colorful pink butterflies, one purple and one green, about the size of a cartwheel, fluttering behind the guide. However, because his Eye of No Form was far from being fully mastered, he could only see them very vaguely.

"Ah ha, so they are two butterfly spirits!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed in delight. Looking at the other spirits in the hall, he saw only wolves, bears, and leopards dressed in fine clothes. He couldn't help but feel overjoyed and chuckled, "They're all beasts in human clothing! I never imagined the Eye of No Form could have such a wonderful use!"

"The Eye of No Form is the supreme detection method I taught you. It's a piece of cake to deal with these shallow-minded spirits," Fei Luo said calmly.

Xiao Xuan found it extremely novel and interesting, his eyes constantly scanning the spirits.

"Don't waste your spiritual energy, the Eye of No Form consumes a lot of spiritual energy," Fei Luo said. "I'm so sleepy, I've finished eating."

Seeing her pale face and weary expression, Xiao Xuan hurriedly called out, "Shopkeeper, the bill!" Pig

Haha, who was nearby, came over upon hearing this, glanced at the table, and said, "Thank you, two taels of silver."

Xiao Xuan was stunned: "Are you kidding me? Two taels of silver for this little bit of food?"

"No, not at all," Pig Haha replied.

"Just a bowl of trotters and two side dishes, and you want two taels of silver! You might as well rob us!" Xiao Xuan said angrily, this price was more than ten times higher than elsewhere.

"So, is this your first time here, young man?" Pig Haha glanced at Xiao Xuan's coarse cloth clothes, and said with a forced smile, "Things in Calabash Town are always this price, and besides, my trotters are more authentic than others, so a little more expensive is to be expected."

Xiao Xuan felt as if he had been slashed, and angrily said, "Your trotters?"

"Yes, my trotters." "Pig Haha, hands tucked into his sleeves, drooping his eyelids, replied.

Having gotten a slight advantage, Xiao Xuan was both amused and annoyed. He really wanted to cut off the fat pig's hooves to eat with his wine, but since he had already eaten the food, he had no choice but to accept it. Helplessly, he said, "I also want two more rooms..." Halfway through his sentence, he glanced at Fei Luo, his heart suddenly pounding.

Fei Luo held a teacup in one hand and rested her chin on the other, glancing out the window.

"I also want a superior room, the cleanest one," Xiao Xuan said, mustering his courage, stealing glances at Fei Luo. Fei Luo's expression remained unchanged.

Xiao Xuan felt a surge of joy and sweetness.

"Don't worry, my rooms are the most comfortable and cleanest in town. Well, I'll give you a discounted price for the food and drinks, including the room. Thank you, eight taels of silver," Pig Haha said.

"What? Eight taels of silver! Are you running a shady business?" Xiao Xuan exclaimed.

"You still think it's too expensive? I've already given you a 20% discount." "Pig Haha rolled his eyes.

Xiao Xuan's face turned red. When he was on Xiaoyao Peak, he only occasionally picked some herbs to exchange for wine money in the town at the foot of the mountain. At this moment, all the silver he had was less than five taels.

"Should we get a room or not?" Pig Haha asked impatiently.

Xiao Xuan glanced at Fei Luo out of the corner of his eye, seeing her still sitting quietly, leisurely sipping her tea, seemingly oblivious to his embarrassment.

"What to do... this is really embarrassing! Am I going to have to leave this beauty out on the streets tonight?" Xiao Xuan blushed, his mind racing. Suddenly, he stood up, put an arm around Zhu Haha's shoulder, and said, "Let's talk in private."

Zhu Haha felt a crushing weight on him, startled and angry, trying to pull away, but the arm holding him was as tight as an iron clamp. Before he could react, his large, fat body had been half-dragged, half-carried several steps away.

"You... what are you doing?" Zhu Haha was both shocked and furious.

"What's your surname, boss?" Xiao Xuan asked, squinting, a mysterious and charming glint appearing on his face.

"My surname is Zhu, so what?" Zhu Haha retorted stubbornly.

"Oh, it's Boss Pig, my apologies..." Xiao Xuan said softly, "I said, could you let me buy on credit? I'll pay you double the amount in a few days."

"No!" Pig Haha said decisively, "Small business, never on credit."

"No?" Xiao Xuan stared at him, slightly increasing the pressure on his arm.

"No!" Pig Haha shook his fat head, his face trembling like jelly.

"Really no?" Xiao Xuan slowly increased the pressure on his arm.

"No!" Pig Haha's face contorted in pain, yet surprisingly strong and determined.

"You fatso!" Xiao Xuan raised his voice slightly, his face turning ashen. "Let me tell you the truth, you're the one running this shady inn, while I'm a ruthless mountain bandit who kills without blinking an eye. I never spend a penny on food or lodging. If you don't know what's good for you, and utter another word of dissent, I'll make sure your blood splatters and your head rolls right in front of you!"

"Even if you kill me, it won't do!" Zhu Haha shouted, adopting a resolute, death-defying demeanor. "Even if you're the Emperor of Heaven, you won't get a penny less if you want to stay at my inn!"

"Can I stay here now?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"Yes, yes!" Zhu Haha nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Suddenly startled, he looked around and quickly pulled Xiao Xuan forward. Once inside, he smiled broadly and asked, "May I ask your name, sir?"

"My surname is Cui..." Xiao Xuan suddenly realized he couldn't reveal his real name and blurted out, "My surname is Cui, Cui Xiaobai." Xuan means black, and the opposite of black is white.

"Oh my, it's Young Master Cui! My apologies! Please wait a moment, I'll prepare a room for you right away." Pig Haha's address and attitude both changed completely.

"Wait, how much for this?" Xiao Xuan had heard Li Mengshang say that Qingying was very valuable outside, so of course he wanted to bargain.

"No need to calculate, no need to calculate, it's so late. Young Master, please rest in my shop first, we'll talk about the rest tomorrow." Pig Haha said with a smile.

Xiao Xuan was stunned.

"How strange..." Xiao Xuan lay on the headboard, his arms behind his head, looking around in puzzlement, "Why has that fat pig suddenly become so generous? Not only did he not ask me for a single penny, but he also gave me such a comfortable suite."

"What's so strange about it? That guy has his eye on your Qingying." Fei Luo finished washing up and sat in front of the dressing table, combing her cascading hair in front of the mirror.

"I think that's why, Qingying is very valuable outside, right?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"It's not just valuable, it's extremely valuable, and besides, your piece of Qingying is huge and incredibly rare. Tomorrow you should really rip it off." Fei Luo tied her hair up with a gauze, stood up from the stool, walked to the bed, lifted her skirt, climbed up beside Xiao Xuan, and with a soft "Ai," lazily sprawled on the quilt.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded.

"Aren't you going to wash up?" Fei Luo glanced at him.

Xiao Xuan quickly got up and went to the outer room to wash. For some reason, his face gradually flushed. After washing up, Xiao Xuan excitedly returned to the inner room, only to find Fei Luo pulled the quilt over herself, her eyes half-closed as if she were asleep. He stood frozen in front of the bed, unsure whether to go in or out. Suddenly,

he heard Fei Luo say lazily, "What are you still standing there for? Didn't you only want one room? There aren't any other beds in this room."

Xiao Xuan felt as if he had received a divine decree, hurriedly took off his boots, and happily climbed onto the bed.

Fei Luo lifted half of the blanket, shifting her body to make room.

Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, his throat gurgling as he pounced on her.

"Don't you take off your outer clothes before sleeping?" Fei Luo asked.

Xiao Xuan quickly took off his outer clothes, then awkwardly reached out to hug the beauty again. Seeing her lips so close, he couldn't resist kissing her.

But Fei Luo closed her eyes and whispered, "So sleepy, I want to sleep."

Xiao Xuan was taken aback and could only awkwardly give up.

"Sleep, we'll talk tomorrow," Fei Luo murmured, wrapping her arms around him and burying her face against his chest. In no time, she was fast asleep.

"She must be exhausted..." Xiao Xuan felt a pang of heartache and pity, gently kissing the soft strands of hair by his lips. "Because of me, she has been injured repeatedly and has been constantly on the move. Alas, I wonder how many lifetimes I, Cui Xiao Xuan, have cultivated to receive such a heavy blessing..."

He was filled with emotion, then recalled what he had overheard at dinner and asked doubtfully, "I wonder if what those two butterfly spirits said is true?" His mind was in turmoil, his thoughts a jumbled mess, and weariness crept in, eventually causing him to drift off to sleep.

Xiao Xuan's brows were furrowed, his forehead covered in sweat. In his half-awake state, he vaguely heard a few soft sounds, but couldn't distinguish what they were or where he was. Touching the soft silk quilt covering him, he suddenly realized that Fei Luo was no longer in his arms. He sat up with a start, only letting out a long sigh of relief when he saw her graceful figure standing by the window.

It was in Hulu Town. The sound just now was most likely from a boat passing under the bridge, its oars hitting the bridge pier.

The window was pushed open, and Feiluo was facing out, gazing at something. She was barefoot, wearing only a light, soft gauze dress, her figure ethereal and graceful.

Xiao Xuan got out of bed, hesitated slightly, and then embraced her from behind. "It's raining," Feiluo said softly, without turning around. A fresh, slightly chilly morning breeze brushed against their faces. Xiao Xuan looked outside and saw that the sky was already slightly bright, and a fine, misty rain was falling, blurring the houses and courtyards of the town, and making the willows along the riverbanks even greener.

The sound of water was soft, and an old, black-awning boat was slowly sailing away in the river.

"Hmm, a beautiful place. If only... it could stay like this forever," Xiao Xuan sighed softly. In his heart, he thought, "Such a scene, with you, is even more enchanting."

“Don’t be too greedy,” Fei Luo smiled slightly. “Good things never last. Enjoy it.” She leaned back, closed her eyes, and gently rested against his chest.

Xiao Xuan was captivated, staring blankly at the swirling raindrops, savoring her words, lost in reverie.

The two stood silently, embracing, for a long time, until Fei Luo yawned softly.

“Why are you up so early?” Xiao Xuan asked.

Fei Luo smiled. “I had to get up to heal my injuries. I’ve already completed a round of meditation. I finally managed to capture that cunning lightning energy.”

Xiao Xuan asked happily, “Is it completely gone?”

“No,” Fei Luo shook her head. “That lightning energy was incredibly stubborn, and my spiritual power has only recovered a fraction. I couldn’t get rid of it by myself.”

“Then what should I do? Is there anything I can do to help?” Xiao Xuan immediately became worried.
Fei Luo’s face flushed slightly, and she whispered, “You want to help, don’t you?”

Xiao Xuan asked urgently, “How exactly can I help? Tell me quickly!”

Fei Luo replied, “Xiao Xuan, what kind of person do you think your martial aunt is?”

Xiao Xuan paused, then answered irrelevantly, "I don't know, I just felt a deep connection, a... longing." His face flushed.

"Longing?" Fei Luo looked up at him, her heart pounding.

Xiao Xuan nodded, "Yes, like a part of me, inseparable."

Fei Luo took a deep breath, her eyes seemingly dreamy.

Xiao Xuan's heart fluttered at her gaze, and he couldn't help but say, "Uncle-Master, I had a dream last night, a dream about you..."

"What did you dream about?" Fei Luo asked.

"I dreamt you left, without telling me, and I was so worried I looked everywhere for you. Luckily, I woke up soon after." Xiao Xuan said, still shaken, lowering his lips to kiss her hair, then pulling her close and embracing her tightly.

Fei Luo sighed softly, biting her lip, "I will leave. I'll leave once I've settled you in."

Xiao Xuan said anxiously, "Can't you stay? We...we..." A burning expectation welled up in his eyes, and he mustered his courage, saying, "Let's stay in this Calabash Town and not worry about anything! Forever...forever..."

Fei Luo gazed at him, a sweet smile playing on her lips, but her eyes were quietly moist. Suddenly, she lowered her eyes: "I have to leave, you know? I must go to Jade Capital with your master. If the Maze Tower really is the Innate Limitless Array of Dancing Dance, then only I know how to break it. That's why the Master ordered me to leave Phoenix Cliff."

"What will happen if you don't go?" Xiao Xuan asked excitedly.

"Not going?" Fei Luo smiled slightly. "If you don't go, firstly, you'll be disobeying the Sect Master's orders, and I'll bring you back to Phoenix Cliff sooner or later. Who knows when you'll be able to come out again? Secondly, your master might be in great danger, because while her Innate Illusion Diagram might be able to subdue Wu Pianxian, it can't handle the Innate Limitless Array."

Xiao Xuan was speechless.

"Can you bear to let your master be in danger?" Fei Luo stared at him.

A sudden feeling of powerlessness washed over Xiao Xuan.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Some things are destined to be unchangeable..." Fei Luo said softly.

"Uncle-Master, if only I could help!" Xiao Xuan said guiltily.

"You can help." Fei Luo raised her head, her cheeks slightly flushed. "I need to recover as soon as possible. Now, will you help me heal?"

"Okay, what should I do?" Xiao Xuan said.

"Kiss me." Fei Luo said, her low, seductive voice filled with indescribable allure.

Xiao Xuan hesitated for a moment, then kissed her, covering her soft, delicate lips. Fei Luo raised her arms and hooked them around his neck.

The two embraced passionately by the window, playfully kissing, their kisses sometimes light, sometimes deep, sometimes shallow, growing ever more intense like a burning fire.

Chapter Four: Soul-Stirring Dual Cultivation

"Uncle-Master, you didn't say you wanted healing..." Xiao Xuan gasped.

"That's right, from now on you're not allowed to speak anymore," Fei Luo whispered, taking Xiao Xuan's hands that were pressed against his abdomen and guiding them slowly upwards to her breasts.

Xiao Xuan felt a dryness in his mouth, and after a few careful touches, he suddenly slipped his hands into the slightly open gauze, unable to resist rubbing them vigorously.

There, they were high and round like peaks, plump and soft, brimming with a wonderfully elastic force that drove anyone mad, making it impossible for anyone to resist.

Fei Luo's cheeks flushed, and she breathed softly, her eyes glazed over, seemingly enjoying herself immensely.

Xiao Xuan's passion burned like fire. His fingers touched her two erect nipples, and his movements became increasingly unrestrained and rough. His hands, instead of kneading and squeezing her breasts, even began to twist and turn them.

"Mmm..." Fei Luo whimpered, the pain somehow bringing a strange stimulation and pleasure. Her lips trembled, and she turned to kiss the man again.

Xiao Xuan held her tightly, kissing her, when he suddenly realized that his penis was hard as iron, pressed against her plump buttocks. He felt a tingling, incredibly comfortable sensation and couldn't help but push forward, sinking the entire head of his penis deep into the beauty's soft, elastic flesh.

Fei Luo felt waves of soreness and her body writhed uncontrollably in the man's arms, but she couldn't shake off the burning hot penis that was relentlessly thrusting into her.

"Mmm...it hurts so much," Fei Luo gasped softly.

"Where?" Xiao Xuan seemed to understand, but his hand released her large breasts and groped downwards, sliding over her taut waist and landing on her plump buttocks. He squeezed and kneaded them forcefully, pushing the iron rod even tighter and deeper.

Fei Luo let out a soft moan, her voice unusually sweet.

Xiao Xuan suddenly felt a small patch of moisture near her cleft, his heart burning. He leaned down and slipped his hand under the gauze.

Fei Luo groaned in panic as the man's hand slid down her thighs to her vulva, pressing against her tender opening.

The beauty was already wet and sticky. Xiao Xuan's palm was covered in a wet, sticky substance. He gently peeled and kneaded, his fingers slipping into her tender petals like a fish.

Fei Luo gasped for breath, her hands gripping the man's clothes tightly, her whole body tensing, trembling with an alluringly delicate flutter.

Xiao Xuan carefully probed, exploring the depths and shallows, murmuring, "Uncle-Master, so smooth and sticky..."

Fei Luo's face flushed crimson, burying her face tightly in the man's arms.

Xiao Xuan, deeply moved, gazed at his shy and bashful aunt, and suddenly swiftly unbuckled his belt, pulled down his trousers, and with one hand lifted her gauze robe and undergarments, pulling them high up to her slender waist.

In an instant, her alabaster legs and plump buttocks were breathtakingly revealed, completely exposed to the man's eyes.

"Not here..." Fei Luo tried to stop him, but was pushed against the windowsill.

Xiao Xuan gripped his penis with one hand, and with the other, he placed his thumb on her snowy buttocks, pressing hard to part the pink flesh, his eyes lingering on the exposed rosy pubic hair. With a thrust of his hips, he thrust forward.

"Ah!" Fei Luo cried out softly, her vulva burning hot as the man had already taken her without warning.

Xiao Xuan rushed forward, but quickly slowed down under the heavy restraints of the lush flower garden, his thrusts turning into pushes, and then into penetrations.

Fei Luo gripped the windowsill, feeling the flower garden rapidly expanding, every inch of the delicate flower walls stretching and thinning, tightly constricting the robust penis, making her heart melt with pleasure.

Xiao Xuan suddenly felt the tip was strangely smooth and soft, and his penis went numb; his jade stem had reached the bottom of the pool, pressing against the incredibly tender flower heart.

"Mmm..." Fei Luo moaned softly, then said, "Not here..."

Xiao Xuan thrust deeply a few times, arousing the beauty to clench her waist and tighten her buttocks, her heart burning with desire, and he began to thrust vigorously.

"It...it will be seen by others!" Fei Luo cried out anxiously.

Xiao Xuan looked out the window and said, "There's no one outside." He continued to thrust with all his might, and after only ten or so thrusts, a trickle of greasy fluid oozed from the clam's mouth, making the shaft glisten with oil.

"You bastard!" Fei Luo whimpered, her head bowed against the windowsill, barely able to stand.
Although it was raining, the light from outside was excellent, making Fei Luo's beautiful buttocks appear round and smooth as cream and powder. With each thrust, the tender flesh on her buttocks trembled coolly, rippling out waves of alluring white flesh. Even

more wonderful was that this position revealed her vulva completely. With each thrust, the red flesh inside her vulva danced seductively, endlessly clinging to the thrusting penis, a sight that would make one's soul melt.

Xiao Xuan looked down, becoming even more valiant and unrestrained. Suddenly, he reached forward, grabbed one of her breasts, and squeezed and kneaded it heavily, shaping it into a thousand alluring forms until his palm was numb.

Fei Luo's breasts were extremely sensitive. His unrestrained teasing caused her to moan softly. Her breasts, in turn, became even more aroused, the plump, tender walls contracting and gripping his penis, making it harder and hotter.

"Uncle-Master is so soft and big, I can't even hold it in one hand..." Xiao Xuan thought, ecstatic. Suddenly, he intensified his actions, his hand moving from her large breasts to her nipples, pinching the nipples which were nearly twice their normal size, then kneading, twisting, squeezing, and rubbing them in various ways. Fei

Luo felt a tingling sensation throughout her body. Suddenly, she saw a small boat emerge from under the bridge, a boatman standing at the stern. She cried out in alarm, "Someone's coming!"

Xiao Xuan had also seen them, but laughed, "What's there to be afraid of? He's not looking this way." He continued thrusting, his penis glistening with moisture.

Fei Luo blushed and pouted, trying to push him away.

Seeing her anxious and coquettish state, Xiao Xuan's desire burned even brighter. Suddenly, his mischievousness flared, and he grabbed her two jade-like arms, pinning them behind her back and pressing them against her thighs. He thrust and pounded harder and faster, each stroke penetrating deep into her soft spot, each strike a heavy blow to her tender heart.

Fei Luo couldn't move and could only hurriedly cry out, "Faster...faster..."

But before the word "stop" could even leave her lips, Xiao Xuan leaned in and whispered in her ear with a laugh, "Fast what? You want me to go even faster?"

His voice was low and magnetic, seemingly containing a kind of bewitching and seductive charm.

Fei Luo froze, as if she had heard it long ago. Suddenly, her soul melted, and a sudden wave of desire washed over her. In her panic, she hurriedly tried to gather her inner energy, wanting to use her secret technique of restraint, but her flower heart bloomed, and she spat out a small stream of thick fluid.

Xiao Xuan numbed her with his essence, and his enormous penis, long soaked in nectar, suddenly revealed its ferocious form, finally displaying the true nature of the Xuan Yang Panlong Pestle. In an instant, its veins resembled a coiled dragon, and it burned like the blazing sun.

Fei Luo immediately cried out, feeling her flower walls being scraped and burned until they were numb and itchy to the bone. She wanted to endure it, but then a stream of semen gushed out like urine, pouring onto the head of the penis.

Xiao Xuan continued to numb her, and suddenly felt his essence surging. He almost ejaculated as well. In the midst of the ecstasy, he was extremely reluctant to let go. Suddenly, he remembered the Nine Cauldrons Rejuvenating Elixir Technique taught by Qi Ji. He immediately gathered his true energy and secretly used it. He immediately felt his seminal gate become firmly secured. Although the urge to ejaculate was urgent, there was no leakage. In a moment of triumph, he deeply penetrated the penis, his true energy flowing in and out, and he unconsciously used the "Draw" technique.

"You...you..." Fei Luo was dumbfounded. Finally, she gave up all resistance and, with trembling cries, let herself release her pent-up desire.

"Fifth Sister's secret technique is truly wondrous! The moment it was used, it turned my Martial Aunt into this state!" Xiao Xuan thought proudly. Seeing the beauty seemingly drained of all her strength, unable to even hold onto the windowsill or stand, her entire body limp and collapsed in his arms, he felt a pang of pity. Though reluctant, he withdrew his martial arts, picked her up, and carried her back to bed.

Fei Luo lay sprawled under the covers, drenched in fragrant sweat, panting softly, her smooth, delicate belly twitching slightly.

"Martial Aunt..." Xiao Xuan smoothed her disheveled hair and gently kissed her shoulder.

"You little rascal," Fei Luo grumbled weakly.

Xiao Xuan grinned at her, his heart filled with even more smugness.

"I asked you to heal my injuries, but you secretly... to suck my blood!" Fei Luo said softly, her beautiful eyes glazed.

"Heal my injuries?" Xiao Xuan was taken aback. "Were you healing just now?"

"I'm asking you, who taught you this technique?" Fei Luo asked.

"What technique?" Xiao Xuan didn't immediately understand.

"It was you who just... just now secretly absorbed my cultivation technique!" Fei Luo said, her face flushed.

"Oh no, she found out!" Xiao Xuan felt a surge of nervousness and said, "No... no." "

Still trying to lie? You little rascal, don't try to play tricks on me!" Fei Luo glared at him.

Xiao Xuan knew he couldn't deny it, and stammered, "No, that method was taught to me by... by a friend."

"What friend?"

"A friend from Thousand Green Mountain..." "

A friend from Thousand Green Mountain?" Fei Luo stared at him: "Tell me honestly, is it some kind of spirit from the mountain?"

"Yes." Xiao Xuan answered in a barely audible voice.

"Oh! You actually went to mingle with a demon!" Fei Luo exclaimed.

"I won't dare, I won't go to her again." Xiao Xuan hurriedly said, thinking that he had never gone to see Qi Ji, she was the one who came to him.

"Hmph, I can't be bothered with you. I'm just worried you'll get hurt!" Fei Luo said earnestly. "You know, spirits love the true essence of cultivators, and many are skilled in the art of 'replenishing the body' (or 'absorbing the essence' of spirits). Be careful not to get tricked and lose your cultivation for nothing."

"No way, she's my sworn sister, how could she..." Xiao Xuan stopped, suddenly realizing he'd let something slip.

"What! You went and became sworn siblings with a demon? I think your master was right to kick you out of the sect!" Fei Luo was furious.

"It's...it's them who insisted on becoming sworn siblings with me." Xiao Xuan was sweating profusely.

"Them?" Fei Luo exclaimed in surprise, "And more than one?"

Xiao Xuan stammered.

Fei Luo stared at him, then seemed to realize something. Her expression softened, and she sighed, "Never mind, it's not your fault. Just don't mess with those spirits in the future."

Seeing her expression, Xiao Xuan suddenly realized that he was a descendant of the Xuanhu (a type of fox spirit), and probably a demon himself. He felt ashen-faced.

Seeing his pale face, Fei Luo immediately guessed what was wrong and quickly comforted him, "Spirits aren't necessarily evil. Just be careful not to be fooled by wicked people."

Xiao Xuan nodded in agreement, lost in thought, unable to extricate himself.

Fei Luo, afraid he would overthink things, said softly, "Alright, it's nothing really. I've even befriended spirits myself."

"You've befriended spirits too?" Xiao Xuan suddenly became curious.

Fei Luo's face suddenly became a little awkward, and she said, "Let's not talk about that. Are you... are you still going to help me heal?"

"Yes, that's the most important thing," Xiao Xuan quickly replied.

"You still..." Fei Luo's voice suddenly became low and sweet, and one hand reached down, gently grasping his still erect penis. With just a little kneading, it became erect and hard as iron.

"Uncle-Master..." Xiao Xuan squinted his eyes and groaned comfortably.

"It's not out yet, is it uncomfortable?"

"It's extremely uncomfortable."

"Put it in again..." Fei Luo guided, "But this time don't... don't secretly suck people in again, just listen to me."

Under her guidance, Xiao Xuan once again thrust his giant pestle into an incredibly plump place, where it was as slippery and moist as mud after rain.

"Tell me when you want to come out." Fei Luo whispered, her two white arms wrapping around his neck.

"Okay." Xiao Xuan agreed, gazing intently at the beauty beneath him, thrusting his hips and pumping.

Fei Luo looked at him, her eyes brimming with autumn water and tender thoughts. Xiao Xuan's heart was intoxicated, and he gradually thrust deeper and faster.

Fei Luo breathed softly, occasionally brushing aside the stray hairs on his forehead, occasionally gently tracing his face with her fingers, while below, she wasn't as composed as above, already overflowing with honeyed juices and overflowing with spring tide.

"Ah!" "Ugh!" The two suddenly cried out at the same time. It turned out that under the constant soaking of the nectar, Xiao Xuan's penis suddenly swelled several sizes, once again revealing its ferocious true form as the Xuan Yang Pan Long.

Fei Luo lost her composure, her beautiful eyes gazing at the man became hazy, and soft moans and sobs occasionally escaped from her lips.

Xiao Xuan, with a fierce and forceful thrust, grasped her two alabaster legs, spreading them wide apart and pressing them firmly. He then peered at their point of contact, where the dark, wet flesh clung to the surrounding snow-white flesh, the red clitoris throbbing and quivering, glistening with fluid that was instantly churned into a thick, white paste by his rapidly penetrating member, soaking a large patch of the bedding beneath her.

"Don't...don't look..." Fei Luo whimpered, her ears burning red, feeling an intense, tingling itch deep within. Unconsciously, her slender waist arched upwards, alluringly high.

"I want to see! So beautiful...Master Uncle is so beautiful!" Xiao Xuan panted, his eyes glued to her, as if wanting to feast his eyes. After a long while, his gaze finally left her vulva and moved upwards, slowly sweeping over her high, mound-like breasts, her flat, taut belly, and finally settling on her two large, voluptuous breasts that were rapidly circling.

Fei Luo's veil was already disheveled. Although the view through the mist was alluring, Xiao Xuan, oblivious to the charm, pulled open her collar and shoved the veil down to her shoulder.

Her alluring, round, and voluptuous breasts were fully exposed, glistening with sweat, appearing even more moist and plump.

Xiao Xuan stared, his blood boiling, and suddenly, he secretly played a trick, deliberately varying the speed and intensity of his thrusts, indirectly controlling the speed and amplitude of her breasts' rotation. Sure enough, a series of strange and delightful sights appeared, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Fei Luo seemed unaware, biting her red lips and looking at him with a mixture of reproach and allure, her blush deepening.

Suddenly, a wonderful fragrance filled the air. Xiao Xuan noticed something on her rapidly rotating breasts and quickly stopped thrusting. It turned out that tiny white beads had formed on her two rosy nipples. He immediately recalled the scene from yesterday, his heart filled with ecstasy, and he couldn't resist lowering his head to take one of her nipples into his mouth.

Fei Luo trembled and cried out, wrapping her arms around his head tightly. Xiao Xuan sucked greedily, taking every white droplet from her nipple into his mouth. The taste was sweet, soft, and fragrant, and in the blink of an eye, his lips, tongue, and mouth went numb and weak. Suddenly, he felt a surge of urge to ejaculate and groaned, "It feels like...it's going to come!"

"Quickly, come all the way in..." Fei Luo said.

Her breasts swelled rapidly, and Xiao Xuan jerked back, unable to resist a series of rapid, forceful thrusts.

"No...don't move!" Fei Luo cried out. Her two plump breasts bounced up and down with each thrust, slamming heavily against his chest.

Xiao Xuan felt numb all over, becoming even more frenzied and fierce, arousing the beauty to the point of itching and gushing.

"You bad boy! Come in...go deep..." Fei Luo moaned, almost breathless, her white arms tightly gripping his waist.

Xiao Xuan snapped back to reality and, as she commanded, thrust deeper, pushing all the way in.

"Up...up a little...just a tiny bit higher..." Fei Luo instructed, while simultaneously arching her back and lifting her hips, struggling to move closer.

"This is to help my uncle heal, I can't let pleasure ruin everything!" Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth, feeling that every slight movement could lead to a complete collapse. He forced himself to suppress his true energy, and unknowingly used the Nine Cauldrons Rejuvenating Elixir Technique that Qi Ji had taught him.

"Ah! Why are you...don't...don't use your energy!" Fei Luo cried out urgently.

Xiao Xuan was startled and quickly withdrew his energy. His essence was drawn by his true energy, and he almost ejaculated.

Fei Luo gasped heavily, as if she was holding back something.

"Uncle, I...I..."

"Hold on a little longer, it'll be over soon, move a little more to the right..."

Xiao Xuan did as she was told, and the tip of his rod softened, it turned out to be touching her clitoris.

"Mmm...I've touched it, that's it, don't move anymore..." Fei Luo trembled and groaned, "Come up here, kiss me."

Xiao Xuan leaned up and kissed her lips.

Fei Luo wrapped her arms around his neck, moaning softly, "Alright, come on, hold on tight..." Suddenly, her legs clamped tightly around his waist, and she trembled, "Come on!"

Xiao Xuan's patience had long exceeded its limit. His heart relaxed, and he only pressed the tip of his rod slightly against his plump, tender heart before unleashing a torrent of semen. Fei Luo closed her eyes to receive it, secretly channeling her inner energy. Suddenly, a strange suction force arose from her flower core, gently and persistently penetrating the man's glans.

Xiao Xuan was speechless, instantly feeling a strangely pleasurable, tingling sensation in his core, shooting until he felt dizzy and on the verge of ecstasy.

Although Fei Luo had used a secret technique to lock her essence, Xiao Xuan's semen was Xuan Yang essence. With a single sip, his flower core, glans, and uterus were instantly numbed, his face flushed and body burning as if he had drunk strong liquor, his eyes watery and almost overflowing.

Xiao Xuan had never experienced such intense release before. He felt lost, yet the overwhelming pleasure made it impossible and unbearable for him to stop. In moments, his limbs went weak, and in his languid state, he suddenly felt a warm current flowing from Fei Luo's mouth into his body. Instantly, his spirits lifted, and he regained his vigor. His penis throbbed stronger and more violently, his ejaculation becoming increasingly intense and joyful.

Fei Luo continuously channeled her energy, as if connecting with Xiao Xuan's body. True energy circulated within their meridians, and they entered a wondrous world together.

Xiao Xuan didn't need to concern himself with any energy regulation; he simply thrust with all his might, ejaculating and pounding relentlessly. Fei Luo's flower core was unusually plump and luscious, its opening wide, almost engulfing half of his penis within its tender flesh. His body was already mostly limp, but for the sake of healing, he had no choice but to persevere.

After circulating her essence, Fei Luo finally completed a full cycle of her cultivation technique. She hastily dispersed her inner energy, and her vital energy instantly surged forth. The pent-up pleasure erupted like a torrent, her breasts suddenly convulsing violently, and several thin streams of white fluid gushed from her nipples.

"Uncle-Master!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed in delight, his chest feeling a warm, tingling sensation as the surging fluid washed over him. Just then, he felt something hot and scalding down below, and before he could react, his penis was drenched, leaving it numb and limp.

"Uncle-Master has lost her virginity again!" Xiao Xuan exclaimed, experiencing a wave of ecstasy.

"Hold on... I... I'll repay you with my essence..." Fei Luo murmured, trembling.

"What?" Xiao Xuan didn't understand.

"Ah...ah...no!" Fei Luo suddenly sprang up, her two plump, pointed breasts pressing tightly against the man's chest. Her snowy belly convulsed heavily, and her vaginal fluids gushed out like urine. She trembled and cried out, "I'm ruined...you...you suck me..."

Xiao Xuan suddenly felt the mysterious suction that had penetrated deep into his core completely disappear. Instantly, he was overwhelmed and began thrusting wildly.

"Don't move...suck...suck me...quickly use your energy to suck me!" Fei Luo trembled, her voice sweet and seductive.

Although Xiao Xuan didn't understand, he could tell from Fei Luo's expression that this was the crucial moment. He could only suppress his urge to climax and forcefully circulate his true energy, using the "drawing" technique of the Nine Cauldrons Rejuvenating Elixir. Suddenly, as if enlightened, thick streams of vaginal fluid were drawn into his glans, instantly numbing his entire abdomen with warmth.

"Eat mine...eat me..." Fei Luo cupped her large breasts and brought her two nipples, which were still gushing milk, to Xiao Xuan's lips.

Xiao Xuan opened his mouth and covered it, sucking deeply, feeling an exquisite sensation from top to bottom, his muscles went numb, his bones softened, and his soul melted.

Fei Luo's essence surged, her consciousness gradually blurring amidst uncontrollable spasms. Unable to hold on any longer, she finally fainted at the pinnacle of bliss.

The clouds dispersed, the rain subsided, and they fell asleep in each other's arms. After a long while, Fei Luo spoke: "Finally, that cunning lightning power has been completely neutralized."

"Really? That's wonderful!" Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, thinking that there was such a healing method, truly exquisite.

"However, the cultivation technique wasn't fully completed. I was supposed to replenish your essence, but I couldn't hold on, and the technique broke down halfway through..." Fei Luo's face flushed, and she patted her chest, saying, "Luckily, you know a little about the method of absorption, otherwise I would have damaged your true essence."

"Dealing is fine, as long as you recover." Xiao Xuan blurted out.

"No way! I'd rather not have it than damage you." Fei Luo bit her lip.

The tent was still filled with a rich, strange fragrance. The two gazed at each other, savoring the previous experience, their hearts pounding with pleasure.

"Uncle-Master, what technique did you use just now? It can even heal injuries," Xiao Xuan asked.

"This is the Taoist art of dual cultivation. It can not only heal injuries but also nourish the vital energy and enhance cultivation," Fei Luo replied.

"So wonderful..." Xiao Xuan suddenly said, "Uncle-Master, will you teach me this technique?"

Fei Luo was slightly taken aback and said, "You want to learn this? What do you want to do with it?"

"I want to cultivate with you, Uncle-Master," Xiao Xuan said with a lecherous grin.

"You little pervert!" Fei Luo scolded lightly, giving him a watery glare.

"You promised to teach me?"

"No."

"Why won't you teach me?"

Fei Luo remained silent for a while before saying, "Because I'll be leaving here soon."

Xiao Xuan felt a pang of sadness.

Fei Luo glanced at him and quickly changed the subject: "I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat. Afterwards, I need to find someone."

"You?" Xiao Xuan asked, startled. "Not us?"

"Yes," Fei Luo nodded.

"Why?"

"Because the person we're looking for doesn't easily meet strangers, so I need to greet him first."

"Doesn't easily meet strangers?" Xiao Xuan hesitated, "Would someone like that... take me in for no reason?"

"Who said for no reason? I think he definitely will." Fei Luo said confidently, "Besides, I only know he's in this Calabash Town, but I don't know exactly where, so I still need to look for him. You don't need to waste your time with me."

"Then what should I do?"

"You stay obediently in the inn and wait for me. If you get bored, go out for a stroll, but don't go too far..." Fei Luo paused and said, "Because there are some places in this town that you can't go."

After

breakfast, Fei Luo hurriedly left the inn.

Xiao Xuan didn't go back to his room either, and was just about to go out for a walk when he suddenly saw Zhu Haha coming over with a beaming smile, ordering someone to set out tea and snacks in the private room, and greeting him, "Young Master Cui, please sit here. Did you rest well last night?"

"So-so," Xiao Xuan said casually, knowing why he had come. "When you're traveling, you have to make do."

"Oh my, my inn is the best in Hulu Town! The rooms are big and clean, the lighting is great, and they even serve hot soup morning and night. The sheets and blankets are made of the finest silk..." Zhu Haha rambled on.

"What's so great about it? Boats are always passing under the bridge in the middle of the night, it's so noisy!" Xiao Xuan interrupted him.

Zhu Haha paused, then said with feigned grievance, "Young master, you don't know, that's precisely the charm of my inn. As the saying goes, 'An ancient bridge with pavilions at its four corners, a century-old inn in the center, where one can drink wine, sip tea, and sleep amidst the sound of oars.' Many guests travel from afar to stay at my inn just to hear the sounds of boats and water."

"I'm a rough man, I don't understand these refined pleasures," Xiao Xuan said, rolling his eyes.

"No, no, young master, you are a straightforward person, I can tell," Pig Haha said, respectfully offering him a cup of tea with both hands.

Xiao Xuan refused, saying, "I don't drink tea, I'll drink wine."

"Truly a straightforward person! Good, good, let's drink!" Pig Haha laughed, then called to the waiter beside him, "Go and fetch a jar of Crystal Pool wine, fifteen years old."

The waiter immediately responded and went, returning shortly with a jar of wine. Upon opening the seal, the aroma immediately filled the air, making Xiao Xuan swallow hard.

Pig Haha personally poured wine for Xiao Xuan, laughing, "This is wine produced in our Calabash Town, brewed with water from Crystal Pool. It's been aged in the cellar for many years. Please try it, young master, and see if it suits your taste."

Xiao Xuan, without any hesitation, picked up the cup and gulped it down. He immediately felt the fragrant aroma fill his mouth and the warm wine flow down his stomach. He smacked his lips a few times and exclaimed, "Good wine!"

"Hehe, if you like it, young master, then have a few more cups." Pig Haha smiled and added more wine, then continued to toast and urge him, being very attentive.

Xiao Xuan ate happily, feeling quite pleased with himself, and unconsciously developed a great liking for the pig-headed boss in front of him.

Pig Haha couldn't hold back any longer and cautiously smiled, "Young master Cui, may I ask where you got that astonishingly large piece of Azure Jade?"

"Finally!" Xiao Xuan thought to himself, "Where else can you find Azure Jade? Of course, it's at the top of Thousand Green Mountain—Xiaoyao Peak!"

"I know that. What I'm asking is, how did you get it?" Pig Haha asked.

"Why are you asking this?" Xiao Xuan asked warily.

Zhu Haha coughed twice and chuckled, "I was just wondering, Young Master Cui, could you reluctantly part with that piece of Qingying and transfer it to me?" Before

Xiao Xuan could answer, he quickly added, "As for the price, I'll definitely give you a satisfactory number."

"This..." Xiao Xuan hesitated, thinking that this piece of Qingying was both large and pure. He had already been expelled from his sect, and he didn't know when he would be able to return to Xiaoyao Peak. He couldn't just sell it off so easily.

"Young Master Cui, how about this price?" Zhu Haha reached into his sleeve and gestured the number "eight" on the table.

"Eighty? Eight hundred?" Xiao Xuan's mind raced. "Eight hundred is unlikely, and eighty is a bit too little. Humph! Although I, Cui Xiao Xuan, am poor, my ambition is not short. I will never sell it for less than one hundred taels of silver."

"How about eight thousand taels?" Zhu Haha stared at him, his voice trembling slightly.

"What! Eight...eight thousand?" Xiao Xuan's hand trembled, and he lost his grip on the cup, spilling the wine all over his clothes.

"Oh dear, Young Master Cui, what's wrong?" Zhu Haha hurriedly got up, pulled a handkerchief from his sleeve, and diligently wiped him clean.

"You...you're not joking, are you?" Xiao Xuan took a deep breath. Eight thousand taels of silver was enough to buy a garden of several acres in the town at the foot of Qiancui Mountain, and to marry a beautiful wife and several concubines.

Zhu Haha, observing his expression, met his eyes. Ge Di felt a pang of guilt and hurriedly said, "Hey, I'm not joking, and I didn't mean to upset you. I sincerely hope you can transfer that piece of Qingying to me, but I run a small shop and my abilities are really limited... How about I add a little more for you?"

"Add a little more?" Xiao Xuan's heart pounded wildly, his face flushed red, and he was filled with regret: "My God! I didn't know Qingying was so valuable. If I had known, I should have brought more pieces with me when I came down the mountain!"

Zhu Haha wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, forcibly pulling his gaze away from Xiao Xuan's eyes, and said tremblingly, "Young master, please don't be angry, please don't be angry, then I'll add half! How about 12,000? This is the best I can do!" "

12,000! What happened? Calm down! Calm down! You must calm down!" Xiao Xuan shouted desperately to himself, and finally managed to calm down a little. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Originally... I was thinking of transferring it to you, but not now."

"Why?" Pig Haha asked.

"Because of sincerity, because you lack sincerity," Xiao Xuan said coldly, rising from his seat as if to leave.

Pig Haha was startled, quickly grabbing his sleeve and calling out urgently, "Wait!"

Xiao Xuan watched him calmly, beginning to admire even himself.

Pig Haha's expression shifted, his fat face jiggling, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Twenty thousand! Twenty thousand taels of silver! I really can't come up with any more!"

"Looks like we can still get a better deal..." Xiao Xuan's heart pounded, but his will suddenly softened: "Sell! Sell! This is a

once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Don't be greedy, or we'll lose everything!" After a fierce internal struggle, just as the word "deal" was about to leave his lips, a bewitching voice called out, "Hey! Kid."

Xiao Xuan and Zhu Haha turned around and saw a large group of people pouring out from the inner room, walking towards them. It turned out that the two were the bewitching girls who had been transformed from the butterfly spirits they had seen last night.

When they reached them, the girl in purple made a gesture, and the twenty or thirty spirits following behind immediately stopped, forming a subtle encirclement around Xiao Xuan and Zhu Haha.

"What do they want?" Xiao Xuan raised an eyebrow slightly, secretly becoming wary.

"You." The girl in purple tapped Pig Haha's chest with her slender finger and said, "Get out of the way."

Pig Haha was taken aback, but seeing the burly men with blue faces and fangs behind her, he had no choice but to obediently walk away, reluctantly staying to the side.

The two girls stared at Xiao Xuan. The girl in green said, "I heard you have a very, very large piece of Qingying?"

"That's right, why?" Xiao Xuan said coldly.

"Take it out and let me see." The girl in green said, in a commanding tone.

"No way!" Xiao Xuan immediately replied, decisively.

The two girls were slightly taken aback. The girl in purple said, "So this kid doesn't have it?"

"Hmm, these idiots must have mistaken it." The girl in green turned her head, her beautiful eyes coldly sweeping over the group of monsters.

The monsters were startled. One of the leopard-headed monsters said, "Reporting to Grandma, we really saw it with our own eyes yesterday, we don't believe it..."

"You're all blind!" the girl in purple interrupted sharply, scolding, "Qingying is so rare and precious, how could you possibly encounter it so easily!"

"Or maybe someone used some dyed stone to deceive you, and you were fooled in no time!" the girl in green sneered, glancing at Xiao Xuan.

The monsters were speechless, none daring to speak again.

"Trying to provoke us? Grandpa Xiao Sheng won't fall for your tricks!" Xiao Xuan crossed his arms and ignored them.

Seeing that Xiao Xuan remained unmoved, the girl in green brazenly sized him up, her words becoming increasingly rude: "Sister, this country bumpkin's clothes are so tattered. If he had Qingying, would he be so shabby?"

Xiao Xuan was furious and about to retort when the girl in purple chimed in, "I think so too. Besides, Qingying only exists on Xiaoyao Peak, and it's guarded by Xuanjiao disciples year-round. How could a little brat possibly have it?"

"Sister, let's not waste any more time here. Let's go," the girl in green scoffed.

Xiao Xuan's face turned ashen. He suddenly reached into his Ruyi Treasure Pouch, and with a loud "bang," a large, pumpkin-sized, blue stone slammed heavily onto the table, causing all the cups and bowls to rattle.

The two girls' eyes lit up, and they immediately stared intently at the stone.

"Look closely, isn't this a dyed stone?" Xiao Xuan exclaimed angrily.

The two girls crowded around the stone, examining it closely. They saw its texture like silk and clouds, with a faint blue mist rising and swirling within. Their expressions grew increasingly astonished.

Seeing their expressions, Xiao Xuan felt a surge of pride.

"Sister, it really...it really is such a large piece of Azure Jade..." the green-clad girl murmured dreamily.

"The texture is so pure, almost no impurities, top-grade! Top-grade!" the purple-clad girl exclaimed deeply.

"How much Azure Jade powder can be ground from such a large piece? How much spiritual power can be infused into so many weapons and treasures..." the green-clad girl sighed softly, unconsciously reaching out her hand. Just as she was about to touch the stone, her vision blurred, and the treasure vanished.

The two girls were stunned.

Xiao Xuan patted his Ruyi Pouch and moved it behind his back.

"You...you!" the green-clad girl shouted at him aggressively, "Hey! Why did you put it away?"

"How strange, I can put my things away whenever I want. Do I need to ask anyone?" Xiao Xuan rolled his eyes.

"We haven't even seen it clearly yet!" the girl in green said angrily.

"That's even stranger. Why should we let you see it clearly? Did you give me any money? Are you my relatives?" Xiao Xuan said arrogantly.

"You!" The girl in green was speechless with anger, and poked Xiao Xuan's nose with a sharp finger.

"What? Want to fight?" Xiao Xuan raised an eyebrow.

Suddenly, a loud clang rang out, and the monsters behind the two girls drew their weapons at the same time. In an instant, the hall was filled with the flashing of swords and the cold light of blades.

"You brat! Are you looking for death?!"

"How dare you be disrespectful to our grandma! I'll stab you to death!"

"Damn it, everyone, chop this kid up!"

The monsters shouted and cursed, about to swarm forward.

Xiao Xuan took a half step back, quickly gathering his true energy and focusing his mind on defense.

Just then, the girl in purple made a gesture, and the monsters immediately quieted down, each suppressing their anger and staring at Xiao Xuan.

“Hey, little brother, could you give us this piece of Azure Jade?” the girl in purple smiled sweetly.

“What a fickle little vixen! As soon as she saw I actually had Azure Jade, her attitude changed completely!” Xiao Xuan thought to himself, his face hardening. “No way!”

“We’re not taking it for free. We’ll buy it from you for a lot of silver,” the girl in purple said sweetly.

“I won’t sell!” Xiao Xuan was annoyed by their disdain last night and said decisively, “No amount of silver will sell it!”

“Then… we’ll exchange it with you for some other very rare materials. We’ll definitely negotiate until you’re satisfied. We have Wolf Fang Green, Purple Scorpion Venom, Jade Essence, Treasure Bottle Bamboo, and Ghost Withered Vine. Which one do you want?” the girl in purple asked again.

“Treasure Bottle Bamboo? You have Treasure Bottle Bamboo?” Xiao Xuan was taken aback.

“Yes, you want this, right? How about we exchange twenty pieces of Treasure Bottle Bamboo for that piece of Azure Jade?” the girl in purple said.

"No trade! I have tons of Treasure Vase Bamboo, more than I can use..." Xiao Xuan thought of E Yan, feeling a surge of sweetness and pride. He casually boasted, "I have a friend who specializes in wholesaling Treasure Vase Bamboo. If you want some, just come find me. I'll give you a 20% discount, how about that?"

The two girls were stunned for a moment, anger flashing across their faces. The girl in green even had a fierce glint in her eyes.

"They're probably going to make a move! Hmph, what can two little butterfly spirits do? Do you think Grandpa Saint is afraid of you!" Xiao Xuan thought to himself, but seeing that the other side outnumbered him, he dared not be careless and quietly channeled his true energy into the Eight-Clawed Flaming Dragon Whip wrapped around his arm.

"Hey, little brother, my sister and I are surnamed Hu. My name is Zi'er, and my sister's name is Bi'er. What about you? What's your name?" The girl in purple suddenly asked, her smile still sweet.

Xiao Xuan was slightly taken aback, feeling a little embarrassed by her politeness, and could only say, "My surname is Cui, and my name is Cui Xiao... Cui Xiaobai."

"So you're Brother Xiaobai. Seeing that you're also a cultivator, may I ask which sect you belong to?" Hu Zi'er asked.

Why did she suddenly ask this? Xiao Xuan hesitated and said, "I have no sect..."

The two women exchanged a glance, and Bi'er nodded almost imperceptibly.

Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized, "So they're probing my background to decide whether to forcibly take my Qingying!"

"Really? Then... how did you get this Qingying?" Zi'er asked again.

Xiao Xuan's mind raced, and he said, "I stole it."

"Stolen? From where?" Zi'er blinked and asked.

"At the summit of Qiancui Mountain, on the top of Xiaoyao Peak," Xiao Xuan said arrogantly.

"Huh? You...you went up Xiaoyao Peak to steal it? Isn't the Dream Nest always guarded by Xuanjiao disciples?" Zi'er asked in astonishment.

"So what if they're Xuanjiao disciples? I, Cui Xiaobai, merely used a little of my supernatural power, and Xiaoyao Peak was like an empty place," Xiao Xuan snorted.

"Brother Xiaobai, you're talking nonsense, aren't you?" Zi'er laughed: "Xuanjiao disciples are so powerful. I heard that the one guarding Xiaoyao Peak is the White-Haired Lady Cui Caiting. Not only is she proficient in the unpredictable Five Elements of Ruyi, but she also possesses the Xuanjiao's treasure, the Innate Taihuan Diagram. Even Taiyi Daluo doesn't want to mess with that treasure, so how could you possibly deal with her?"

Upon hearing his master's name, Xiao Xuan felt a pang in his chest. How could he speak ill of his master? He said, "That day, the White-Haired Lady wasn't there. I only encountered her five disciples..."

"So what?" Zi'er asked.

"Of course, a fierce battle was inevitable. After three hundred rounds, I finally routed them, and then I defeated the Crystal Venerable who guarded the Dream Nest, which is how I obtained this Great Azure Jade." Xiao Xuan spoke fluently.

"I don't believe it!" Bi'er couldn't help but say, "You don't even have a sect, how could

you be so powerful?" "Listen carefully! I have a remarkable background." Xiao Xuan smiled slightly, gazing into the distance as he recited, "Before the chaos was opened, true mystery was already revealed; I was the first to see through the void; I roam freely throughout the eight wastelands and six directions; who knows where I, the immortal, come from?" He was stunned after reciting it. He had intended to feign profundity and make up a few words, but unexpectedly, it came out naturally, and it was melodious and seemed to contain profound mysteries

. At this moment, although he was wearing the coarse cloth clothes of a fisherman, he suddenly became ethereal and radiant, with an invisible yet perceptible light shining around him, instantly stunning everyone present.

"It really is you." A voice as beautiful as heavenly music suddenly rang in Xiao Xuan's mind.

"Who?" He looked around in surprise, quickly realizing the voice in his mind wasn't from anyone around him.

"Come, I'm waiting for you." The voice rang out again, gentle yet irresistible.

"Where are you?" Xiao Xuan rushed outside.

But the voice vanished without a trace.

Xiao Xuan looked around, but saw few pedestrians on the street, nothing unusual.

"What happened? Was what I just heard a hallucination..." He stood blankly at the inn's entrance.

"Impossible, I clearly heard it, and that voice seems familiar..." For some reason, a strange longing welled up in Xiao Xuan's heart, both vague and incredibly strong: "No! I must find the owner of that voice!"

He looked to the left and right, randomly chose one, and walked forward aimlessly.

The rain had just stopped, the cobblestone streets were as clear as if washed clean, willows swayed gently on both sides of the river, and a breeze carrying the fresh scent of water and moss blew by from time to time, refreshing one's mind and spirit.

As Xiao Xuan walked and looked around, he grew increasingly fond of the town's scenery. Before he knew it, he had walked quite a distance and turned onto a main street. Suddenly, he noticed that there were many more shops on both sides, and many more pedestrians. It was far more bustling and lively than other places. He was delighted and began to browse through the

shops one by one. What he found even more surprising was that, in addition to the usual taverns, oil shops, salt warehouses, pharmacies, incense shops, cloth shops, and silver shops found in ordinary towns, there were also many shops that specialized in buying and selling all kinds of rare materials, weapons, and magical treasures.

Xiao Xuan was having a great time browsing when he suddenly thought, "Shui'er loves liveliness. If she were here right now, she would be extremely happy."

The more he thought about it, the more he missed her, and he became somewhat lost in thought. Suddenly, he saw a tall tower, more than ten stories high, standing behind the rows of shops in the distance. He walked over to it, only to find that it was also a shop.

This unusual shop was enormous, bustling with people. Above the main entrance on the ground floor hung a huge plaque with gold lettering on a lacquered background, bearing the four characters "天地无宝" (Heaven and Earth Have No Treasures).

"Heaven and Earth Have No Treasures? What does that mean? What a strange name..." Xiao Xuan's curiosity was piqued, and he followed the flow of people inside.

Upon entering, he was immediately stunned by the sight before him. The hall was vast and imposing, with numerous counters. Strangely, hanging inside the counters were countless cages of varying sizes, each shimmering with a green light. Floating within each cage were one or more items—materials, weapons, magical artifacts, and even some strange and unusual birds and beasts he had never seen before. The sheer variety and the bizarre sights were dazzling.

Xiao Xuan was deeply moved. He took a deep breath and slowly examined each item, completely mesmerized.

Suddenly, he stopped in front of a cage. Floating inside was a knife, only a foot long, but with a blade over three inches wide. As it slowly rotated, a mysterious mist of water droplets appeared on its blade, emitting a faint yet almost eerie glow.

"It seems to be of water elemental attribute..." Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat. He thought, "Shui'er lost her Azure Wave Blade, and that He fellow took the opportunity to be overly attentive, even shoving his own broken knife into her hands. He's completely charmed her. I can't let my guard down..."

Thinking this, he called out loudly towards the counter, "Is the shopkeeper there? I want to see this knife."

A man in his forties or fifties, wearing a blue hat and gray robe, came over and said, "Sir, what would you like to see?"

Xiao Xuan pointed to the cage and said, "May I see what kind of knife this is?"

"Is this it?" The shopkeeper muttered incantations, and a small door suddenly opened in the turquoise cage hanging in the air. The shopkeeper reached out and grabbed, and the knife flew down into his hand, handing it to Xiao Xuan, saying, "Please take a look, sir."

Xiao Xuan took it and asked, "Does this knife have a name? Does it have a history?"

The shopkeeper replied, "Fu Jian of the Former Qin Dynasty received guidance from a master weapon smith from the outer sea. He gathered ten years' worth of sweet dew and forged a knife in four years, naming it 'Divine Art.' This knife is a replica made by our workshop, hence the name 'Descendant of Divine Art.'"

"Your workshop made a replica?" Xiao Xuan asked in surprise, touching the water droplets that appeared on the knife's surface. They were cool and dry; indeed, they were all reflections.

The shopkeeper, a proud look on his face, said, "Our workshop boasts a collection of master craftsmen with exceptional skills. The replicas we produce are only slightly better than the originals."

"Really?" Xiao Xuan wondered. Although he was skeptical, the knife in his hand was indeed extraordinary, and he grew to like it more and more as he looked at it. He asked, "This knife seems to be water-based?"

"You have a good eye, sir," the shopkeeper nodded.

Xiao Xuan examined the knife closely, turning it over and over. Suddenly, he swung his arm, slashing the blade into the air. A spray of water and mist appeared at the edge, reaching a distance of half a foot. He thought to himself, "My martial arts are fire-based, completely incompatible with this knife's nature. Yet, this casual swing possesses such power. When Shui'er uses it, it will surely be even more suitable and powerful. Then, my precious Shui'er will no longer care about that piece of junk surnamed He!"

Having made up his mind, he asked the shopkeeper, "How much is this knife? How much silver?" Although he expected the knife to be expensive, he was confident because he carried a large Qingying jade worth at least 20,000 silver in his purse.

"Sir, you want to buy it with silver? Then it will cost 19,000 taels," the shopkeeper said.

Xiao Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiping his sweat and secretly rejoicing: "Thank goodness, I'll hurry back, sell Qingying to Zhu Haha, and I'll still have a thousand taels of silver left for drinking." He immediately said to the shopkeeper, "I'll go back and get the silver. Keep this knife for me."

The shopkeeper replied, "Sir, please go quickly. Items on the first floor cannot be reserved for customers."

"The first floor?" Xiao Xuan asked, puzzled. "If the first floor can't be reserved, then can the second floor?" "

Items on the second floor and above can be ordered and reserved," the shopkeeper answered.

"Then I'll go upstairs and take a look," Xiao Xuan said.

"Do you have a nameplate, sir?" the shopkeeper asked.

Xiao Xuan was taken aback: "What nameplate?"

"It's the nameplate issued by our shop, divided into seven colors and seven grades. Only those with one can ascend to the corresponding floor," the shopkeeper explained.

"How can I obtain a nameplate?" Xiao Xuan asked.

"The first-grade nameplate can be obtained by purchasing goods worth more than 100,000 taels of silver from our shop. Others have different conditions," the shopkeeper said.

Xiao Xuan was dumbfounded, and after a while, he said, "What do they sell on the upper floors?" He turned to look at the staircase leading to the second floor and saw a blurry light and shadow at the top of the stairs, with tiny glimmers of what seemed to be spiritual energy occasionally emanating from it. Clearly, there was some kind of restriction or mechanism set up.

"The higher you go, the higher the quality of the goods sold, and of course, the higher the price," the shopkeeper replied.

"My goodness!" Xiao Xuan thought to himself, "They sell such good things on the first floor. What kind of top-quality items do they sell on the tenth or twelfth floors?"

With the treasured sword on his mind, he immediately bid farewell to the shopkeeper and hurriedly walked out. When he reached the main entrance, he suddenly bumped into someone.

Just then, a loud shout rang out: "You brat, are your eyes in your crotch?!" A large hand reached out to grab him.

Xiao Xuan was furious and raised his arm to block, only to see a fat, broad-shouldered man in a green robe. Just as he was about to retaliate, someone behind the man called out: "Master Bu Liu, do not cause trouble here. This place, 'Heaven and Earth Without Treasure,' belongs to the Immortal Kongkong."

"Huh? That voice sounds familiar..." Xiao Xuan looked up in surprise. What a small world! He saw He Tianpeng entering with several people and was startled. He quickly lowered his face.

"You brat, you're lucky. If this were anywhere else, I would have twisted your balls off!" The green-robed man swore and shoved Xiao Xuan aside.

Xiao Xuan took the opportunity to leap back and stop against the door. He felt a surge of blood and qi in his chest and couldn't help but feel a chill: "This guy's true qi is so strong!"

"Why is Master's temper getting worse?" He Tianpeng laughed. His forehead was bandaged, and his voice seemed slightly weak, clearly due to the serious injury he had suffered at the hands of Qi Ji.

"Damn it! This chase has nearly exhausted my White Tiger, and we haven't even seen a glimpse of that little fox! Are you trying to fool us?!" the burly man roared.

A Taoist priest-like figure chimed in, "That's right. We've covered hundreds of miles without a trace. Nephew, what makes you so sure that little fox is heading this way?"

He Tianpeng smiled slightly and said respectfully, "You are all my elders. How could I, Tianpeng, dare to speak carelessly? That kid is definitely heading this way, without a doubt. He stole my Deer-Shu Carriage, and I am intimately familiar with the aura of the Deer-Shu, so I'm absolutely certain."

"Bastard! This guy not only spread the news that I'm a descendant of the Xuanhu, but now he's brought people to chase me!" Little Xuan gritted his teeth, his face lowered. Seeing He Tianpeng walking past him, he really wanted to trip him up.

"I don't care, you're in charge of feeding the White Tiger!" the burly man said.

"Of course, of course, this place is full of treasures, surely there's something the Tiger Immortal likes to eat..." He Tianpeng said, then suddenly stopped, pondered for a moment, and slowly turned his face towards Xiao Xuan by the door.

Xiao Xuan knew he couldn't avoid it, so he raised his head high and grinned, "Did I steal the Deer-Shu Carriage? Young Master He's skin is really thick!"

"Everyone, come quick! The little fox demon is here!" He Tianpeng shouted, his hand quickly reaching for his waist.

"Bastard! You should have been swallowed alive by the spider that day!" Xiao Xuan roared, but before he finished speaking, He Tianpeng flicked his wrist, and suddenly golden light flashed and runes surged, the Vajra Demon-Trapping Net covering the sky.

In a flash

, Xiao Xuan dodged to the side, avoiding the rapidly descending Vajra Demon-Trapping Net. He caught a glimpse of several figures flanking him from both sides, and quickly used a spark to leap out of the door.

He Tianpeng, net in hand, pursued relentlessly, shouting, "Hand over the Deer-Shu Chariot! I'll spare your life!"

"Dream on!" Xiao Xuan roared, "Come and take it if you dare!"

A brilliant golden light burst forth like fireworks as He Tianpeng cast another net.

Xiao Xuan spun around, catching a glimpse of a crimson light shooting from his sleeve, instantly transforming into a fiery dragon in mid-air. It bared its fangs and claws, meeting the Vajra Demon-Trapping Net head-on, and with a few swirling motions, completely engulfed the golden light.

He Tianpeng was thrown about, his body swaying wildly, his fingers barely able to grip the Demon-Trapping Net. He hurriedly snatched the net and retreated, his back instantly drenched in cold sweat.

He had witnessed Xiao Xuan's kung fu in the Giant Bamboo Valley and was secretly shocked: "How did this kid's skills suddenly become so formidable? Could it be that he was hiding his strength before?"

Xiao Xuan's confidence surged, and he was about to give chase when a flash of cold light suddenly appeared from the side. He quickly swung his whip to parry, and heard a clanging sound as a figure retreated. It was a Taoist priest wielding a sword, who shouted, "This little fox demon is powerful! Everyone, attack together!"

Another person beside him yelled, "Watch this!" He clenched his hands and swung them out with a whoosh. A white mist flew out of the air, like a vicious dragon, directly attacking Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan flicked his wrist, and his Eight-Clawed Flaming Dragon Whip also spun out like a dragon, but it was a blazing crimson dragon. The two whips clashed and dispersed, but Xiao Xuan stood firm as if on a mountain ridge, while his opponent cried out "Ah!" and retreated hastily. His sleeves were on fire, and he looked quite disheveled.

Xiao Xuan looked over and saw that this person was the same burly man in green robes who had bumped into him earlier. Looking around, he saw that there were six people surrounding him. Besides He Tianpeng, the sword-wielding Taoist priest, and the burly man in green robes, the other three were all dressed as Taoist priests, holding a knife, a ruler, and a whisk,

respectively. He suddenly remembered that these people seemed to be the same group that had threatened to capture him in the sky above the Great Swamp yesterday, except that a few monks were missing. The burly man in green robes roared angrily, his arms swinging in the air, and the flames on his sleeves instantly disappeared. He glared fiercely at Xiao Xuan and said, "Evil heretics, indeed treacherous! Since that's the case, don't blame me, Qing Bulu, for being ruthless!" As he spoke, he chanted incantations, and suddenly white mist rose in front of him. A long, heart-shaking roar was heard, and a ferocious white tiger emerged from the white mist.

Many passersby who had gathered to watch the commotion immediately fled upon seeing the white tiger.

Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he raised his whip defensively, saying, "Bah! You are the heretic! Your Grandpa Xiao Sheng is a righteous disciple of the Xuan Sect!"

The Taoist holding the whisk coldly replied, "Hmph! The Xuan Sect dares to defy the world and take you, a demonic remnant, into its ranks. It seems its days are numbered! Today, my Wenxin Temple will act on behalf of Heaven and take you, little fox demon, back to the mountain to cultivate!" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his whisk, sweeping it towards him from afar.

Xiao Xuan felt a powerful force strike him. Just as he was about to swing his whip to defend himself, he suddenly saw figures rushing around him. It was as if all his enemies were attacking him at the same time. He quickly moved his feet, dodging and parrying.

In this way, Xiao Xuan was not only fighting six against one, but also a fierce tiger with immense strength and lightning speed. He suddenly felt the pressure increase dramatically, but strangely, he did not fall behind at all. With his true energy full, his whip was like a fire dragon and his steps were like clear smoke. The more he fought, the more energetic he became.

The six attackers were secretly astonished. Qing Bulu was anxious, relying on the ferocity of his spirit beast, he suddenly forced his white tiger to break through Xiao Xuan's defensive circle. However, the white tiger roared and jumped back in panic, large patches of its fur already singed by the Flaming Dragon Whip.

Qing Bulu roared in anger, ignoring the depletion of his true energy, and launched a frenzied attack with his breath dragon.

"Master Bulu, don't worry, as long as we trap this little fox demon, he won't be exhausted!" He Tianpeng called out sinisterly.

Xiao Xuan heard this and became even angrier. He hated He Tianpeng for being so cunning, always carefully hiding behind others and ambushing them. In his haste, he couldn't do anything to him.

But Qing Bulu angrily said, "Sleep with your mother! Didn't you say this little fox

demon's skills were mediocre? I think he's a hundred times stronger than you!" He Tianpeng's face turned red, and he said, "This little fox demon is extremely cunning. He hid his strength that day and even his master was fooled."

Hearing him mention his master, Xiao Xuan felt a pang of pain in his heart and was momentarily distracted. Just then, the Daoist holding the ruler, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a sound behind Xiao Xuan's head.

The sound was faint to others, but to Xiao Xuan it was like a thunderbolt; his head jolted violently, and he stumbled and fell.

"Heavenly Thunder Demon-Slaying Spell!" The Daoist holding the whisk exclaimed in surprise, looking at the Daoist holding the ruler, "Junior Brother Xin, when did you master this divine skill?" The Daoist holding the ruler replied, "Enough with the idle talk, everyone, subduing this little fox demon is the most important thing!"

The crowd was overjoyed and rushed forward, unleashing a barrage of weapons.

He Tianpeng shouted, "Don't hit his stomach, be careful not to damage the Innate Tai Xuan!"

Xiao Xuan knew something was wrong and frantically channeled his spiritual power. Suddenly, seven or eight enormous pillars of fire shot from the ground, then exploded upwards, forming a ring of fire that soared into the sky.

The six attackers were taken aback. Several of them, unable to stop in time, crashed into the wall of fire, their hair singed and robes ablaze. They screamed and retreated hastily.

The Fire Prison Technique. A mid-level spell of the Ruyi Five Elements Fire Shield system, it creates a circle of fire, trapping the victim as if in a prison.

Originally a technique for trapping enemies, Xiao Xuan cleverly used it defensively, achieving immediate and remarkable results.

Moreover, for some reason, its power this time was several times stronger than when he used it before. If Cui Caiting or his senior sisters were present, they would be utterly dumbfounded.

Xiao Xuan scrambled to his feet, his vision blurry, and saw He Tianpeng. A surge of rage welled up within him, and he charged towards him with his whip.

He Tianpeng was frantically patting the flames off his clothes when he suddenly saw Xiao Xuan approaching. In a panic, he hastily cast the Vajra Trapping Demon Net, completely blocking Xiao Xuan's path.

Xiao Xuan channeled his inner energy, flicked his wrist downwards, and the long whip slithered along the ground like a snake, its tip striking He Tianpeng's left knee.

He Tianpeng cried out in pain, falling to his knees in terror, and cried out, "Help me!"

But Xiao Xuan had already leaped up, kicking him hard in the head, and using that momentum to leap over several onlookers, disappearing into the distance like a shooting star.

With a loud "bang!", He Tianpeng collapsed to the ground, his vision blurring with black and red, and stars flashing before his eyes. He couldn't get up for a long time, only to hear shouts rising around him: "Quick, chase him! Don't let the fox demon escape!" "He's over there!" "Everyone, chase him! He's been hit by the Heavenly Thunder Demon-Slaying Curse, he can't possibly get far!" "Damn it! He dared to burn my beard, I, the Daoist, will definitely kill this little fox demon today!"

The voices faded into the distance, and He Tianpeng finally struggled to his feet. He touched the blood and gore splattered between his nose and mouth, and was about to spit out the dirt stuck between his lips and teeth when he suddenly realized that two of his front teeth were missing. He couldn't help but let out a mournful cry, and roared through gritted teeth, "Cui Xiaoxuan! I'll tear you to pieces!" He suddenly sprang up and limped away, chasing after the fox demon with a ferocious grin.

Xiao Xuan felt a constant buzzing in his head, not knowing what kind of evil spell he had fallen under. Terrified, but with pursuers close behind, he could only run desperately forward, leaping across rivers and climbing rooftops, hoping to escape his enemies as quickly as possible and find a quiet place to heal his wounds.

However, Qing Buliu, riding a white tiger, and the sword-wielding Taoist, flying on their swords, both soared through the air, crossing rivers and houses without hindrance, relentlessly pursuing him.

At that moment, Fei Luo's graceful figure flashed into Xiao Xuan's mind again: "Waaah... Where is my martial aunt? If only she were here."

In his panic, he leaped across another river, just as a group of people approached. Leading them were two beautiful and charming women, the sisters Zi'er and Bi'er.

"Ah, Brother Xiaobai, we were just looking for you!" Zi'er called out joyfully.

Xiao Xuan had no time to pay them any attention, his face ashen as he ran past them.

The two girls were taken aback. Bi'er whispered, "Why is this kid so flustered?" Suddenly, they spotted Qing Bulu and the sword-wielding Taoist approaching.

"It looks like someone's chasing him!" Zi'er frowned.

Bi'er's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly shouted to Xiao Xuan, "Hey, don't run! Is someone trying to catch you? Should we help you?"

Xiao Xuan was focused on running, and with his ears ringing, he didn't hear what she was saying. Seeing a pink and white wall blocking his way, which looked like the courtyard of a wealthy family, he jumped over it without thinking.

"Sister, we've found the Qingying!" Bi'er smiled at Zi'er, pointing at Qing Bulu and the sword-

wielding Taoist who were chasing after them. Suddenly, she shouted to her dozens of subordinates, "Stop them!" The monsters, upon receiving the order, immediately drew their swords and spears, fiercely blocking Qing Bulu and the sword-wielding Taoist's path, shouting, "Stop!" "Grandpa has something to ask you!" "Damn it! This little fox demon actually has helpers!" Qing Bulu cursed angrily. Although he saw that the other side had many people, he was not afraid at all. He and the sword-wielding Taoist charged straight at them, instantly engaging in a fierce battle with the monsters.

"Sister, let's go find that brat and get the Qingying!" Bi'er said excitedly.

"Yes, don't let him get away again!" Zi'er nodded. The two of them leaped up and jumped over the wall. Seeing Xiao Xuan running for his life ahead, they hurriedly gathered their true energy and used their skills to chase after him.

"Hey! No need to run anymore, we've already stopped the pursuers for you!" Bi'er shouted loudly.

Xiao Xuan seemed oblivious, continuing his desperate escape.

"Hey! What are you running for? Stop right there!" Bi'er shouted again, panting.

Suddenly, a small willow grove appeared ahead, and Xiao Xuan, without stopping, plunged into it.

The two girls had no choice but to follow.

Xiao Xuan had no time to heal his injuries; his ears were ringing louder, his head felt like it was about to explode, and his running speed greatly decreased.

Zi'er and Bi'er were getting closer and closer, neither noticing the wisps of smoke around them.

Xiao Xuan finally couldn't run anymore, clutching his head and dragging his feet.

The two sisters caught up with him, and Bi'er shouted, "Hey! Didn't you hear me telling you not to run?"

Xiao Xuan was startled, turned sharply, and raised his long whip to strike.

The two sisters took a step back, and Zi'er called out, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Xuan blinked, stunned for a moment, before recognizing them, and breathed a sigh of relief, clutching his head.

"Are you injured?" Zi'er asked.

Xiao Xuan nodded and then shook his head, panting heavily, feeling dizzy.

"Hey, aren't you supposed to be very capable? How come you're being chased all over the place?" Bi'er said angrily.

"Didn't you see how many of them there were?" Xiao Xuan said in a disheveled state.

"There are only two of them. You could take on the five disciples of the White-Haired Lady on Xiaoyao Peak, but you couldn't beat those two?" Bi'er glared at him.

Xiao Xuan's face turned red, and he argued, panting heavily, "What do you mean two? There were six in total, plus a refined ferocious tiger! Haven't you heard the saying 'A novice can kill a master'?"

"Are they your enemies?" Zi'er asked.

Xiao Xuan suddenly groaned, covered his head with his hands, and slowly squatted down.

The two sisters exchanged a glance. Bi'er blinked her beautiful eyes and secretly made a beheading gesture, while Zi'er shook her head, walked up to Xiao Xuan, and touched his forehead.

Xiao Xuan felt the small hand was slightly cool, smooth, and soft, and couldn't help but groan comfortably.

"Where exactly are you hurt?" Zi'er asked softly.

"I don't know..." Xiao Xuan said angrily, "Those bastards must have done something wicked to me!"

Bi'er snorted and said, "You're such a coward, you don't even know how you got hurt."

Xiao Xuan stood up abruptly and turned to leave.

"Where are you going?" Bi'er called out.

Xiao Xuan ignored her and kept walking forward. Zi'er glared at Bi'er and hurriedly followed, saying, "Don't go yet, let us see how to help you heal."

"No need!" Xiao Xuan felt a little more favorably towards her and thought his tone was too harsh, so he said, "I'm fine."

"Hey! We held off your pursuers for you, how are you going to thank us?" Bi'er called out from behind.

"Mind your own business! I didn't ask you to help me." Xiao Xuan was very annoyed by her and didn't appreciate it at all.

"Hey! Still being stubborn now, if it weren't for us helping you, would you have been able to escape?" Bi'er glared at the back of his head.

"If I can't escape, then let's fight again, a real man doesn't cling to life and fear death!" Xiao Xuan said stubbornly.

"A real man? Fine! Then let me ask you, shouldn't a real man repay kindness?" Bi'er said.

"That's right." Xiao Xuan blurted out, but immediately realized he had been tricked.

“Since there’s nothing wrong, just give us that piece of Qingying as a reward,” Bi’er said with a smile.

“No way! I knew you were after my Qingying!” Xiao Xuan said arrogantly, “You can have my life, but I don’t have any Qingying!”

Bi’er was speechless with anger.

Zi’er suddenly said, “Stop walking, where is this?”

Xiao Xuan was slightly taken aback, only then noticing that the surrounding woods were unusually dense, and that there was a light mist and fog.

“Huh? When we came in, it seemed like just a small forest, but how come we’ve been walking for so long and still haven’t reached the end?” Bi’er said in surprise.

“And it seems like we’re going deeper and deeper…” Zi’er looked around in confusion.

“Something’s not right, I feel like there’s something strange about this place.” Bi’er frowned and looked around, then said, “We have to find a way out quickly!”

Xiao Xuan thought for a moment and laughed, “That’s easy, watch me!” With that, he suddenly leaped up and jumped onto a large tree next to him, then used his whip-like feet to climb, and quickly disappeared into the dense canopy.

The two sisters immediately understood that he wanted to go up to a higher place to check the surroundings, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement.

"Why is it taking so long? Could... could something have happened?" Bi'er asked anxiously.

Zi'er hesitated for a moment, then calmly said, "Let's go up and check, but we need to be careful." She chanted a forbidden incantation and took out a pair of rings that shimmered with a soft silver light from her magic pouch.

Bi'er also opened her magic pouch and took out weapons, which were two strangely shaped weapons in the shape of flowers, their petals blooming like blades, each petal's edge gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light.

The two sisters prepared to stop and flew upwards together, without the slightest slackening. Their flying skills alone were far superior to Xiao Xuan's.

The two sisters passed through the dense branches and leaves, ascended to the top of the crown, and saw Xiao Xuan standing dumbfounded on a branch.

Bi'er shouted, "What are you daydreaming about? You made us so worried!" As soon as she finished speaking, the two sisters also froze.

The three found themselves in a vast forest, a boundless expanse of lush, verdant green.

He Tianpeng and his companions arrived one after another, engaging the monsters in a fierce battle.

"Who are these guys? Where's that little fox demon?" He Tianpeng asked through gritted teeth, catching a wolf-headed monster in his net and instantly squeezing it into a ball.

Several other monsters, both shocked and enraged, charged at him.

"The little fox demon escaped over the wall! These monsters are his helpers!" Qing Bulu shouted.

"Quickly finish them off, don't let the fox demon escape!" the Taoist priest holding a whisk yelled.

Although their skills far surpassed those of the monsters, the monsters outnumbered them, and each one was fierce, brave, and incredibly strong, making it difficult to subdue them quickly.

Suddenly, dozens of people appeared beside them, each carrying weapons, lined up in rows. Judging from their build, they were both men and women, some wearing bamboo hats and others with veils covering their faces, making it difficult to discern their features.

Standing before them was a young man in brocade robes, with sunken eyes and a thin, pale complexion devoid of any color, his back hunched, looking sickly.

He Tianpeng and the others felt a chill, thinking, "Why are there so many people all of a sudden? Does the little fox demon have reinforcements?"

The young man in brocade robes swayed forward, as if a gentle breeze could knock him over.

"Hey, I heard you know the whereabouts of the fox demon's descendant. Can anyone tell me?" His voice was weak, but everyone in the midst of the fierce fighting heard him clearly.

However, with the battle raging, no one had the time to answer him.

The young man in brocade robes walked straight into the fray, glancing around amidst the flashing blades. "None of you want to pay me any attention?"

A giant axe flew past him, its blade narrowly missing his face. He frowned slightly and added, "If you don't pay attention to me, you'll all regret it."

Suddenly, Qing Bulu, standing nearby, erupted in fury, shouting, "Get out of my way, you consumptive!" He swung an elbow, aiming straight for the young man's chest.

But there was no reaction; Qing Bulu's powerful blow missed its mark, leaving him feeling uneasy and utterly terrified.

"You dare touch me?" The young man in brocade robes looked at his chest, his face suddenly contorted with rage, and threw a punch at Qing Bulu, but it was weak and powerless.

Qing Bulu tried to block, but somehow he was struck in the shoulder. His dantian jolted, and the flowing true qi within him instantly froze.

"I'll charge interest, so I'll have to hit you back again," the brocade-clad young master said mockingly, throwing another punch. Qing Bulu,

utterly exhausted, could only watch helplessly as the young master's withered fist gently landed on his chest. At that moment, the stagnant true energy within him finally began to flow, but it disobeyed its master's commands, instead rushing wildly towards the two points where he had been punched, its speed and volume instantly exceeding the body's limits.

"You...you are..." Qing Bulu's mouth gaped open, his eyes filled with indescribable terror. At that instant, his shoulder and chest exploded violently, as if gunpowder had blasted out, blood splattering several steps away. Several breaths later, he collapsed limply to the ground.

"Feels bad, doesn't it?" the brocade-clad young master exclaimed excitedly, suddenly turning and punching a leopard-headed monster in the abdomen.

The leopard-headed monster's burly body jolted violently, its face contorted in a strange expression as it stood frozen in place.

The figure of the brocade-clad young man suddenly became faint, appearing for a fleeting moment before the group of people like a ghost.

These unfortunate individuals were all stunned, as if under a spell, before screams and shrieks erupted. Several demons and the sword-wielding Taoist suddenly gushed forth large amounts of blood, each leaving a horrifyingly large crater in a different part of their bodies, their internal organs still convulsing and spasming wildly.

The remaining demons, filled with shock and rage, rushed towards the illusory figure, but upon approaching, they were instantly torn apart by bursts of blood and collapsed in an instant.

The brocade-clad young man reappeared, his clothes spotless, yet he was panting heavily, as if exhausted and about to collapse at any moment.

A slender woman with a veiled face stepped out from the crowd, kneeling down and saying, "Young Master, you are unwell and mustn't tire yourself out. I'll take care of these scoundrels."

Her voice was sweet and alluring; the terrified He Tianpeng felt he had heard it before, but couldn't quite place it.

The young man in brocade shook his head, glancing at He Tianpeng with narrowed eyes. He panted, "I'm not tired. It's been a long time since I've been out. I'm going to have some fun today." The Taoist

priest holding the whisk suddenly awoke as if from a dream, his voice trembling as he cried out, "Seven Thunderbolts! You are...you are...Little Demon...Little Demon Lord!" The

young man in brocade smiled at him, saying, "Do you recognize me?"

The Taoist with the whisk paled, leaping into the air and running for his life. At the same time, the Taoists with the knife and ruler also turned and fled in different directions.

"Foolish." The Little Demon Lord chuckled softly, his figure suddenly fading. The Taoist with the whisk, already more than ten feet away, fell first, followed by the Taoist with the knife. The Taoist with the ruler whirled around, spitting out a "thud" at the pursuing phantom.

But a withered fist was still imprinted on his heart.

"Looks like the Heavenly Thunder Demon-Slaying Spell…but your cultivation is terrible." The Little Demon Lord withdrew his fist.

The Taoist with the ruler glared at him with bloodshot eyes, then suddenly a large amount of mangled, bloody organs exploded from his chest.

The Little Demon Lord returned with his hands behind his back, still unstained by blood. His gaze swept over the haphazardly scattered, broken corpses, landing on the face of He Tianpeng, who was trembling against the wall.

"You're scared, aren't you?" The Little Demon Lord clenched his fist again, sighing as he uttered a nonsensical statement: "It's a pity... without Bao Fu, I'll never taste these delicious flavors again."

"Don't kill me!" He Tianpeng tumbled to his knees, tears streaming down his face, pleading, "Demon Lord, spare me! I am the young master of the Demon-Slaying Fortress! This servant swears to serve the Seven Realms to the death!"

"Demon-Slaying Fortress?" The Little Demon Lord paused slightly, then chuckled, "Never heard of it... There are far too many who want to serve me, and you don't seem to be of much use."

"I...I..." He Tianpeng saw him slowly raise his fist, his pupils contracting sharply, and he screamed hoarsely, "Don't kill me! I know where the Little Fox Demon is! I know where the Fox Demon's descendants are!"
