She choked up as she spoke, "Even though they treat me like this, I always try to be tolerant and not argue with them. But they've only gotten worse, and I just can't take it anymore..."
There were fewer and fewer people on the path, and Danniang, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.
Rong Xu said, "I think it's not a bad thing for them to stay away from you. After all, no one wants to associate with demons!"
As Rong Xu spoke, he attacked Dan Niang directly. Caught off guard, Dan Niang was knocked to the ground, but she quickly transformed into a cloud of black mist and floated up. A seductive voice came from within the mist: "Damn stinking cultivator, I thought you were just an ordinary person, but it turns out you were just hiding your cultivation. Hehe, just you wait, we never lose."
Throughout history, most of those eliminated were demons, because no matter how many times you kill a demon, as long as there is enough evil intent or demonic energy, it will come back again.
Rong Xu's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly; this kind of filthy thing that could never be killed was really an eyesore.
Fortunately, he will definitely not be coming out anytime soon.
Lu Qingsi felt a pang of guilt watching Rong Xu effortlessly defeat the female demon. She hadn't been able to help him at all and had almost caused him trouble; she really felt bad about it.
"Rong Xu, I'm sorry," Lu Qingsi apologized, her face flushed.
"It's nothing," Rong Xu said nonchalantly. "Could I take a look at the feather I gave you?"
"Oh? Okay." Lu Qingsi quickly took out the feather that Rong Xu had given her earlier. The white feather had a silvery-white halo on it, and it looked very beautiful.
However— Rong Xu took out what was in his hand, which was already shrouded in a layer of black mist.
Just as I thought, this thing becomes useless once it gets into her hands. No wonder she couldn't tell earlier that Dan Niang was just a demon in disguise and not human at all.
"Why can't I use her?" Lu Qingsi couldn't understand. Her own cultivation level was not bad either, and it was now higher than Lu Ming's.
"I'll ask my master when I get back." Rong Xu put away the feather he had given to Lu Qingsi and refused to give it to her again.
Lu Qingsi regretfully withdrew her hand. Actually, it was quite pretty and would be nice as a decoration.
When the two returned to the inn, Lu Ming was already back, but he was injured!
"Brother!" Lu Qingsi quickly rushed to Lu Ming's side with her small medicine bottle and fed him a pill. She really didn't know what bad luck Lu Ming had encountered. He had only been out for a short time and had already started getting injured repeatedly.
"Qingsi, I'm alright." Lu Ming comforted Lu Qingsi and said to Rong Xu, "Brother Rong Xu, I did indeed encounter a demon on my trip, and its cultivation was quite high. I fought it fiercely, and although I was injured, I managed to kill it in the end. It won't reappear for a while."
"I ran into one too." Rong Xu frowned and said warily, "Did something happen at Tianmen?"
"Shall we go to Tianmen to take a look?" Lu Ming asked.
"We definitely need to go check it out. Something this big must have happened; Tianmen shouldn't be unaware. If they truly know nothing, I'll have to suspect that Tianmen and the demons orchestrated this together." Rong Xu said, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. His master had said that if they encountered a demon, they might spare it, but if they encountered a monster, they must kill it!
