However, even if she released the talisman into the air, given her current condition, it seemed that she would not be able to wait for the sect's rescue.
Yan Baibai felt somewhat desperate. In the past, her master or fellow students had always told her that people were evil, but she had not taken it to heart at that time. She thought she had always been able to judge people accurately, but she had never expected that one misstep would lead to her death without a burial place.
There is no doubt that in order to avoid exposing its tracks, the demon will destroy her body.
——
"Host, do you really not remember any of these memories?" The system watched from the side, unable to resist the curiosity in its heart.
"Well, I have no impression at all." Yan Baibai nodded. If it weren't for this adventure in the demon world, she probably would never remember it in her life.
——
"Hehehehe..." Lu Wuxiu, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly laughed, revealing two fangs on his bright red lips. He slowly stood up, and the red light in his eyes became even more intense.
"Want to escape?"
He looked at Yan Baibai not far away with a hint of teasing in his eyes, as if he was teasing a toy that would not escape from his palm.
"Unfortunately... it's too late."
Only a shadow was left where Lu Wuxiu was standing. The next moment, he appeared in front of Yan Baibai. He grabbed Yan Baibai's neck again and pressed him against the wall of the cave.
"Originally, you didn't have to die. After all, he cared about you a little bit." Lu Wuxiu lowered his head and whispered in Yan Baibai's ear. Then he sighed and said, "It's a pity that you saw my demonic body and knew my identity, so you had to die."
The "he" that Lu Wuxiu mentioned was naturally himself in a human body.
Being in the Yanjian Sect where there are many masters, in order to not reveal his half-demon identity, Lu Wuxiu must split his spirit into two parts, one human and one demon.
This time, Lu Wuxiu attacked with great force, and Yan Baibai's originally pale face turned red due to lack of oxygen.
Her eyes were fixed on Lu Wuxiu, who had completely transformed into another person. Because her neck was being strangled, she couldn't even whimper.
Breathing in less than breathing out more, Yan Baibai felt like she was about to die. Ever since she embarked on the path of immortal cultivation, she had imagined countless bizarre ways to die, but she had never imagined that she would foolishly make friends with a demon and then die at its hands.
She is unwilling to accept it!
Even if she died, she would bite off a piece of flesh from the demon in front of her. At the very least, she would let the demon leave some traces. She only hoped that her master and others would find some information when they came to find her.
Thinking of this, Yan Baibai's eyes became fierce. He swung down his right hand, which had been constantly grabbing the hand on his neck. The bracelet on his right wrist flashed and turned into a precise dagger.
Because of the poisoning, she couldn't mobilize much spiritual energy. She originally intended to use the little spiritual energy in her body to send a distress signal to the sect, but now she had to use it to unlock the restrictions on the bracelet.
Holding the dagger in her hand, Yan Baibai stabbed hard at the hand that had been pinching her neck. The next moment her neck was freed, Yan Baibai began to run towards the cave entrance. However, she was still held tightly at the entrance.
“Where are you running to!”
Lu Wuxiu grabbed Yan Baibai's shoulders and pressed her against the cave entrance again. He quickly took the dagger from her hand and threw it out of the cave. With a burst of demonic energy, the dagger shattered instantly. The fragments fell and sank into the river water below the cave silently.
"Your fate will be the same as that dagger." Lu Wuxiu said to Yan Baibai with a gloomy face.
However, Lu Wuxiu did not see any fear on Yan Baibai's face, and even saw a little pleasure of success in her eyes.
Lu Wuxiu frowned, and suddenly seemed to realize something. He walked a few steps out of the cave and stretched his head to look at the sky.
Where there should have been only a bright moon, a yellow sword silently hovered above. It wasn't a real sword, but a phantom conjured from the distress talisman distributed by the Yanjian Sect to its trial disciples. It was the unique symbol of the Yanjian Sect.
When a distress signal is sent into the air, it is naturally silent and fast. After all, disciples will only send it when they are in danger. If the sound is too loud, it will bring danger instead.
"In less than half an incense stick of time, the deacon elders from outside the secret realm will appear here. Just wait to be caught!"
Yan Baibai watched the astonishment on Lu Wuxiu's face turn into anger, and smiled with relief.
"You dare to provoke me now? Do you really think I dare not kill you?" Lu Wuxiu's hand pinched Yan Baibai's neck again, his tone cold.
——
"Ha~" The system yawned boredly when it saw the familiar posture of the two people, and said lightly: "Host, I still think he doesn't want to kill you."
"Of course, otherwise why would I wait for you to find me?" Yan Baibai said with a smile.
"That's not the reason." The system laughed and said, "Even so, you see Lu Wuxiu still didn't throw away the ball of water he refined."
That ball of water plus Lu Wuxiu's devil blood is the antidote to the poison in Yan Baibai's body.
