A powerful figure from another world is assassinated and their body shrinks to the size of a child.
They are taken in by the Li family and become the center of everyone's adoration.
Tsk tsk, they dared to release a drought demon that was probably only at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining stage so easily? Ye Shuang slowly landed on the ground, looked at the writhing flesh and blood on the ground, and rubbed her temples with a headache.
The reason she dislikes dealing with such things is that drought demons cannot be killed. After all, they are considered fallen gods. Even if they were human in life, once they are cultivated into drought demons, they are linked to gods. They can only be sealed, but the problem is that she doesn't know how to seal them!
So the only way is to kill her until she's willing to turn back to where she was released. Looking at the drought demon, which had almost returned to its original state, Ye Shuang said nonchalantly, "Go back now, and I'll let you leave."
But seeing that the drought demon was still charging forward recklessly, Ye Shuang could only deliver another sword strike to her, and then watch helplessly as she was struck by the sword energy and forced to retreat dozens of meters, only to be torn to pieces once more.
Then, the third time, the fourth time, the fifth time...
Ye Shuang was exhausted from fighting. She sat cross-legged on the ground, propping her chin up with one hand and silently watching the flesh and blood fusing together in the distance. What other way could she possibly stop the drought demon from reviving? If this continued, not only would she fail to stop the drought demon, but she would also exhaust the drought demon's spiritual energy.
She sighed, resting her chin on her hand, and was about to get up and shatter her again when several white-haired old men ran over from not far away.
There were only four people, each wearing a light gray Taoist robe, holding a whisk, with their completely white hair tied up on their heads with a wooden hairpin, their faces full of wrinkles, looking like very accomplished masters. Moreover, they were only slightly out of breath when they were so close to the drought demon, so it seems that they are masters in the mortal world!
"Greetings, Immortal." The four of them ran to Ye Shuang's vicinity and first gave her a grand salute.
Ye Shuang casually used her spiritual power to help them up. Looking at the drought demon that had basically revived behind her, she took a step forward, shielding the four of them behind her, and then swung her sword at the drought demon again.
"Immortal, wait!"
One of the Taoists seemed to want to stop her, but unfortunately, he couldn't speak as fast as Ye Shuang drew her sword.
Seeing the drought demon shatter into a pile of minced meat once again, Ye Shuang turned around and looked at them: "What, do you have a way?"
The terrifying sword energy they had just witnessed had also greatly intimidated them. The group exchanged glances before finally sending out a representative who bowed tremblingly, head bowed, not daring to look her in the eye. The representative spoke cautiously, his voice trembling with fear: "Immortal, please forgive us, but this drought demon cannot be killed. Why not leave it to us? Let us seal it in a secluded place and send disciples to guard it, just in case."
Ye Shuang glanced at the drought demon that was beginning to merge again and nodded casually: "Alright, you can take it away."
"Immortal, we...we can't move her to a secluded place." The old Taoist priest, who had just spoken, continued awkwardly, "Could you please trouble yourself, Immortal..."
"Can't we just stay here?" Ye Shuang replied impatiently. This place was already deserted before, let alone now.
"Yes, yes, of course we can." Hearing Ye Shuang's tone, they didn't dare to dawdle any longer and began to set up the sealing formation before the drought demon was resurrected again.
Having an experienced hand makes things much easier. In no time, a crack appeared beneath the mass of flesh, and the writhing flesh slid down it. After the crack closed again, a complex array appeared on the ground. Several Taoist priests then hammered nails into the array, fastened chains, and affixed talismans.
