However, they were devoured by the monster hiding in the mansion and forced to merge into one.

Her resentment, combined with her demonic aura, caused this monster to wreak havoc on the people of the county town at will.

She too has been corrupted and is now a tool for murder.

Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at the two people in front of her. There was also a girl among them. Once she killed the last life in the county, she could leave.

This was her deal with the monster.

He felt the woman's gaze sweep over him, a chilling sensation that seeped into his skin like a venomous snake bite.

The glaze on Ci Nan looks like a layer of skin bumps.

He rubbed the goosebumps on his body with both hands, his teeth chattering as he asked, "Peach Immortal, can you tell what it is?"

Tao Yaoyan's eyes flickered slightly, a faint light appearing in them, and he glanced at the woman with disdain.

Its true form was revealed in Tao Yaoyan's eyes.

It turned out that the black aura surrounding the beautiful woman was not mist at all, but a black snake coiled from head to toe around her, its tongue flicking.

Tao Yaoyan raised an eyebrow. He really did have a grudge against the snake clan…

Ci Nanyou stared nervously at the woman. Her eerie appearance made him feel extremely uncomfortable, and he subconsciously moved closer to her. Only when he smelled a reassuring peach blossom scent did he relax a little.

Tao Yaoyan sensed Ci Nanyou's sudden approach and a hint of surprise in her eyes. Was this person really from the Immortal Sect? Why was she so afraid?

"Are you very scared?"

Ci Nanyou swallowed hard. "This is my first time coming down the mountain."

So it's perfectly normal to be afraid, okay?

“This is a snake demon. The saying goes, ‘Strike the snake at its seven-inch mark.’ Ci Nanyou, go and strike its seven-inch mark.”

Seeing the woman appearing and disappearing in the mist, Ci Nanyou said with a bitter face, "Immortal Peach, I can't see the snake..."

Tao Yaoyan was taken aback. Was it that useless?

He said irritably, "Just go up there."

For every evil monster Ci Nanyou kills, she accumulates one more point of merit.

He would help Nan You kill the monster.

Since Tao Yaoyan had spoken, Ci Nanyou could only muster her courage, pick up her sword, and rush towards the woman.

Tao Yaoyan nodded slightly as she watched Ci Nanyou sparring with the snake demon.

The speed and power of the sword strike were quite good.

With a whoosh.

As the sword slashed through the air, Ci Nanyou lost sight of the snake demon once again. Suddenly, mist clouded his vision.

He was startled when a gaping maw lunged at him from the side. He quickly rolled away to avoid it, and the snake demon sank back into the mist.

Cold sweat silently beaded on Ci Nanyou's forehead. He nervously looked around, fearing that if he was careless, he would be bitten to death by the snake demon.

The slender, white hand slowly approached Ci Nanyou's back, about to grab his neck, when Ci Nanyou turned around and severed the snow-white, jade-like hand with a "snap." The woman's hands fell to the ground.

Strangely, not a single drop of blood flowed out.

Ghosts have no blood.

Therefore, even after Ci Nanyou cut off both of her hands, not a single drop of blood was shed.

The woman, her hands severed, hid in the mist once more.

Ci Nanyou was breathing heavily, her eyes constantly scanning her surroundings.

The snake demon suddenly appeared to his right. Ci Nanyou dodged to the side, avoiding the snake's head that lunged at him.

Ci Nanyou quickly made a hand gesture and chanted an incantation on the spot!

The sword in her hand suddenly seemed to be blessed by something, shining brightly as she slashed at the snake's head. Unexpectedly, the snake demon cleverly dodged, and at this moment, the woman who had been observing from the shadows suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ci Nanyou by the neck.

Ci Nanyou was completely focused on the snake demon and, without paying attention, was grabbed by the woman.

"Cough...cough..."

The woman was incredibly strong. Ci Nanyou's face turned red from being pinched, and she was panting heavily with her neck red.

With a loud crash, Ci Nanyou was thrown off by the woman, and the snake demon on the other side also pounced on him.

Ci Nanyou subconsciously closed his eyes, but the expected pain did not come. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the snake demon had been thrown aside by Tao Yaoyan.

He...was he rescued?

Ci Nanyou felt a sudden jolt as she stood up from the ground, looked at Tao Yaoyan in front of her, clasped her hands in thanks, and said, "Thank you for saving me, Immortal Tao!"

Tao Yaoyan nodded. "You can just stab it with your sword."

Ci Nanyou's eyes lit up. "Great!"

He then took the sword and went towards the snake demon. "Pfft!" The sword pierced the woman's body, and the black mist gradually dissipated, revealing the corpse of a black snake. Ci Nanyou pulled the sword out of the woman's body and then struck the snake's seven-inch spot with another sword.

Seeing that almost everyone was dead, he drew his sword, and a demon core appeared in the air, which Ci Nanyou grabbed.

He turned and walked towards Tao Yaoyan, handing him the demon core, "Immortal Tao, this is the demon core you killed. Here you go."

Tao Yaoyan glanced at the dark demon core, then turned her head away indifferently.

It's not even as good-looking as that dragon's demon core; this one is pitch black and hideous.

Seeing that Tao Yaoyan ignored him and turned her head away, clearly not needing the demon core, Ci Nanyou awkwardly touched his nose and put it into his pocket.

If the Peach Immortal doesn't want it, then he'll keep it for himself...

After putting away the demon core, Ci Nanyou looked at Tao Yaoyan and asked, "Immortal Tao, are you going to take that little girl away?"

This place is now completely abandoned; it's impossible for someone to just leave a little girl alone here.

Upon hearing this, Tao Yaoyan twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Who wants to bring a child?"

If the little grass wakes up and misunderstands him, will he be able to explain himself clearly?

Ci Nanyou was taken aback when Tao Yaoyan denied it, and asked in surprise, "Then, Immortal Tao, you wouldn't be entrusting this girl to me, would you?"

Taking a child on a training trip?

Ci Nanyou's hand holding the sword trembled. Impossible. He couldn't even protect himself; how could he take care of a child?

Tao Yaoyan looked at Ci Nanyou's miserable expression and couldn't help but laugh. "Naturally, we'll entrust her to the people around us."

How could I possibly let Ci Nanyou carry it?

Ci Nanyou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Tao Yaoyan say that. It was good that he wasn't asked to take her with him. After all, if Tao Yaoyan really asked him to take her with him, he wouldn't have been able to refuse.

He couldn't refuse any of the immortals' requests...

Ugh... what a frustrating sadness...

In the blink of an eye, Tao Yaoyan had already entered the building, and Ci Nanyou quickly followed.

The next day, Tao Yaoyan took him to a remote village, entrusted the girl to an elderly couple who had no children, gave them a bag of silver to ensure their food and clothing, and then disappeared.

On a forest path.

Ci Nanyou flew on his sword, soaring extremely low.

Watching Tao Yaoyan walk incredibly fast, Ci Nanyou spoke to him from the side.

"Peach Fairy, where are you planning to go?"

"May I come along?"

"I can cook and do laundry."

"It can even talk to keep you entertained!"

Ci Nanyou chattered away in Tao Yaoyan's ear the whole way.

Tao Yaoyan rubbed her temples and said helplessly, "Why are you following me on your training trip?"

He couldn't take him along for training.
