Definitely not a person from the dust world

Bai Roushuang came back to her senses and hugged her joyfully: "Senior Sister, you are so amazing!"

Xu Shulou said modestly: "It's not that I'm good, it's mainly because my opponent is weak."

"Let's go!" Fan Yang raised his hand to wipe the blood from his lips, and swept his vicious eyes over the people of Wuchen Island, "Xu Shulou, you are such a good guy, I will avenge you for the humiliation you suffered today!"

He left a harsh remark and just as he turned and took two steps, Xu Shulou threw the sword in his hand and nailed it three inches in front of his toes.

"Oh? If you say so, should I cripple you now to prevent you from causing trouble to me in the future?" He was not strong enough but dared to be arrogant. Xu Shulou felt that he was not beaten enough.

Fan Yang's expression froze: "You..."

Fan Zhi said angrily, "Miss Xu, you are going too far! I will have a good talk with the Sect Master. If you bully our elders like this now, what will happen after you marry into the family?"

Xu Shulou was full of fighting spirit. He looked at her and said simply, "You want to fight me too?"

Fan Zhi was very flexible and shut up, then turned her eyes to Lu Beichen, the meaning was very clear: you take care of your fiancée.

...You think too highly of me. Lu Beichen was caught in the middle and just wanted to look up at the sky, pretending that he saw nothing. The two Fan elders were not strong, but they were good at scheming. They were the confidants of the leader of Lingxiao Sect and were said to have helped the leader deal with several dirty jobs. Lu Beichen's master didn't think much of these two people, so his attitude towards them was also rather subtle.

At this time, I cursed in my heart, if you don't want to embarrass yourself, just let me surrender?

He cleared his throat and said, "Shu Lou, we are all here to kill the devil, how about we put aside our dispute first?"

"Brother Lu, what you said is right." Xu Shulou probably saw his helplessness and actually gave him some face, which made Lu Beichen flattered for a moment. "But as for putting aside the dispute, I want to hear Elder Fan say it himself."

Fan Yang's face turned blue and red. After a moment of silence, he said, "Okay, okay, okay! How about we... put aside the dispute first?"

Xu Shulou laughed: "So you can speak properly."

Fan Yang's face turned pale: "I wonder if Miss Xu has any other instructions?"

"My meaning is very simple. Killing the demon is a big deal. Even if we don't cooperate, I hope we won't get in each other's way."

"good."

Fan Yang looked at her deeply and led the team away. Bai Roushuang looked at their backs, a little lost in thought: "Seeing people like this, I understand why cultivators are so persistent in pursuing higher strength."

"Why?"

"Senior sister is right. Strength is respected in the world of cultivation. In front of these unreasonable people, strength is the truth."

"Junior sister, you..." Xu Shulou looked at her carefully and placed his two fingers on her wrist. "Junior sister, you are going to build your foundation."

Bai Roushuang was stunned and hadn't reacted yet: "Foundation building?"

"That's right," Xu Shulou was very happy for her, "You can now try to break through to the foundation-building stage. If you succeed, you will enter the foundation-building stage, and the road to the world of cultivation will be in front of you."

Bai Roushuang was delighted but also a little flustered: "What if it fails?"

"Even if you fail, you are still my junior sister," Xu Shulou touched the top of her head, "You are still young and have many opportunities. Relax."

"But... building the foundation at this time? Will it delay the exorcism?"

"Second Junior Brother, you two should escort Junior Sister back to Huihuan Sect first and stay there to protect her," Xu Shulou looked at Bai Roushuang again, "Just focus on breaking through the realm, and don't worry about the rest, I'll take care of everything."

"Yes!" The words "I'll take care of everything" miraculously calmed all her worries. Bai Roushuang nodded heavily, "Senior Sister, I will do my best. The next time we meet, I will be in the foundation-building stage!"

"must."

After seeing off the group from Wuchen Island, Xu Shulou carried the sword that could not be sheathed on her back. With her casual clothes on and the sword on her back, she looked like a sword practitioner.

According to the location given by the Hehuan Sect where the body was dumped, Xu Shulou visited each location, looking for clues and roughly outlined the range of activities of the demon. However, after waiting for a day, there was no movement.

She thought about it, and took advantage of the night to use the face-changing magic weapon she had snatched from the Yuankong Secret Realm to change her face into an ordinary male's. She also changed into men's clothes, hid her sword, and walked back and forth in the wilderness with arrogant steps several times, trying to lure the demon to take action.

Nothing was gained, which was understandable. In broad daylight, Fan Yang and everyone from Lingxiao Sect flew away on swords with great fanfare. They made such a big fuss and did not conceal their tracks at all. If the demon had any sense left, he would not show up easily.

We can probably just wait until she can't stand the hunger anymore and then come out to cut open some men's intestines.

Judging from the frequency of corpse dumping in the past, it is indeed not yet hungry.

Xu Shulou was not in a hurry to catch it and take credit. As long as the people were not harmed by it again, it didn't matter if he caught it slowly.

Seeing that there was no trace of the demon within a hundred miles, Xu Shulou entered Wushuang City, took off the magic weapon for changing his face, and changed back into his skirt.

It was a full moon that night and the night was just perfect.

Xu Shulou fell from the sky and landed in front of a small window with an oil lamp burning.

The scholar who was studying hard at his desk in the window looked up and saw her. He didn't know whether it was real or an illusion, and chanted a poem foolishly: "Fairies should only be seen in paintings, they are definitely not mortals."

"Silly boy," Xu Shulou laughed, "I'm sorry I scared you last night. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern," the scholar blushed, "I told everyone about what happened last night, and everyone said I was dreaming, but I know it must be true."

"What are you doing in the deserted mountains in the middle of the night?"

The scholar lowered his head in embarrassment: "I was thinking about those innocent people who were killed for unknown reasons, so I wanted to check if there were any clues."

"Oh, you are also going to dig graves," Xu Shulou suddenly realized, "You are really brave, you are not afraid of encountering that murderous demon."

"Is it really the work of demons?" The scholar looked a little worried.

"Don't be afraid. The immortal sect has sent people to slay the demons. They will definitely give the people peace," Xu Shulou said with a smile, "and you don't have to sneak out at night anymore."

The scholar heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Then girl, don't go to the deserted mountain at night again. It's very dangerous."

Xu Shulou looked at him seriously: "Okay, I won't go."

"Miss, have you ever seen me?" The scholar blushed again. "It's so presumptuous to ask this, but I always feel that the way you look at me seems a little strange."

"I..." Xu Shulou was speechless for a rare moment. After thinking for a while, he said truthfully, "You look a lot like an old friend of mine."

"oh?"

"He is also a scholar with the talent of a top scholar."

Calculating the time, if that person was reincarnated, he should be about the same age as the person in front of us.

The scholar looked at her with bright eyes: "Is he the girl's sweetheart?"

Xu Shulou didn't answer, but just smiled and said, "I'm leaving."

The scholar asked anxiously, "Am I lucky enough to see the fairy again?"

Xu Shulou shook his head: "Probably I won't see him anymore."

The scholar felt lost, staring at her as she slowly flew away towards the moon in the night, her sword whiter than snow, her clothes fluttering in the wind, just like Chang'e flying to the moon, forever separated from the mortal world.
