When Shen Shuyi heard the sound of the bell, he smelled the breath of the monster catcher in an instant. The breath of this monster catcher was very different from Wu Chen's. It was the kind that carried blood, not as pure as Wu Chen's.
She didn't leave. Instead, she hid her evil spirit and stayed on the eaves to watch the situation in the yard.
The couple in the yard were chatting and laughing as they looked at their newborn baby.
The gentle and beautiful wife smiled and said, "Tan Lang, we must raise Cheng Er well."
"Yingniang is right. Cheng'er was born prematurely and is in poor health. He is still cold now. As your husband, I only hope that he grows up healthy, not that he will achieve much." The man's eyes were full of kindness.
Suddenly, the gate was kicked open.
The couple looked together and saw a middle-aged man in Taoist robes walking in with a peach wood sword.
"So the ghosts are hiding here."
"And gave birth to a ghost boy."
Tan Lang hurriedly put the child in his wife's arms and stood in front of him, glaring at the person who broke in through the door.
"What do you mean, Taoist priest?"
"You broke into my house for no reason. I'm going to report it to the police!"
The Taoist laughed, "You are so stupid, don't you know she is a ghost?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
"She is my wife, please leave quickly!" Tan Lang protected his wife and children behind him.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by the Taoist priest and fell unconscious to the ground.
Yingniang glared at the Taoist priest, "How dare you attack a powerless mortal?"
She put the baby aside, and then set up a barrier to prepare for a battle with the Taoist priest.
"Humph, I am the Taoist Xuanzhen who specializes in catching ghosts. When will it be your turn as a ghost to point fingers at me?"
Taoist Xuan Zhen's eyes were sharp. "If you don't want your soul to be shattered by my ghost-killing sword, then hand the ghost over to me."
Yingniang stood in front of the child, on full alert, "Impossible!"
"I have been practicing for hundreds of years. I will never lose in a fight with you to the death!"
“Ha!” Taoist Xuanzhen sneered, “If you obediently hand over this half-human, half-ghost thing to me, I can still let your husband go.”
"You even kill people?!" Yingniang frowned, "You are evil!"
Taoist Priest Xuan Zhen said to the sky, "Today, the heavens have given me a good opportunity to encounter this half-human, half-ghost creature. Using it to make sacrifices and refine will surely increase my infinite power."
"You are indeed an evil cultivator!" Yingniang wanted to pick up the child and run away, but she was worried that her unconscious husband would fall into the hands of this villain. She was in a dilemma for a moment.
Over the years, she has been hiding her aura, never leaving the house and living a low-key life in this house. She never expected that the evil spirit would be revealed during childbirth and she would be visited by evildoers.
"He's not a ghost, he's a human. I will gradually remove the ghost energy from him and let him grow up safely as a human child. Don't even think about touching him!"
The evil Taoist's eyes lit up, "If you insist on not changing your ways, I will use you and the ghost together to make an elixir!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the evil Taoist priest swung his sword and killed the ghost girl.
The ghost girl, who had practiced for hundreds of years, fought with the evil cultivator with all her might. However, she was distracted when the evil cultivator attacked the baby and fell to the ground in defeat.
Just as the evil cultivator's peach wood sword was about to stab down, a vine covered with wisteria flowers in full bloom flew over and swept the evil cultivator's peach wood sword away.
Shen Shuyi jumped down from the eaves and kicked Xie Dao to the ground.
“Puff——” Xie Dao spit out blood, and exclaimed when he saw Shen Shuyi.
"You are a flower demon!"
"So what, do you want to kill me?" Shen Shuyi folded his arms in front of him, "You are a blind and stinking Taoist priest. You can't tell good from bad, and you are still evil."
"Then your eyes are of no use."
Shen Shuyi controlled the vines and pierced through the evildoer's eyes with a "swoosh".
"Ah——" Xiedao wailed, covering his face with his hands and rolling on the ground.
Shen Shuyi raised her hand, ready to give Xie Dao the final blow, when a golden light struck and knocked her vines away.
What caught my eye was Master Wu Chen, whom I hadn’t seen for many days.
"Little flower demon, stop!" Wu Chen walked towards her with the demon-subduing Zen staff.
The seriously injured ghost girl propped herself up and stood in front of Shen Shuyi, explaining: "Master, please don't do anything. Everything is on me. That Taoist priest is an evil cultivator. He wants to kill my husband and child. If it weren't for this girl's help... cough cough..."
The ghost girl was seriously injured and coughed up blood.
Wu Chen didn’t look at the ghost girl, but only at Shen Shuyi, “Is this what the little flower demon is like?”
Shen Shuyi twisted the sachet on her waist with her fingers, "Is it because you can't see it?"
She raised her hand to kill Xie Dao, but Wu Chen grabbed her wrist and said, "Even if he is an evil cultivator, you should not personally take action and get involved in karma. This will be extremely detrimental to your future cultivation."
Wu Chen continued, "I will contact my master to escort him to a place that specializes in dealing with evil cultivators."
"Whatever you want." Shen Shuyi snorted. Anyway, she had beaten this evildoer half to death.
The ghost girl kowtowed to her, "Thank you for saving me, young lady."
Before Shen Shuyi could say anything, he felt dizzy and fell forward.
Wu Chen still held her wrist, and took her into his arms. He checked her condition and left without saying a word.
Chen Shuyi pretended to be unconscious, and also pretended to have been possessed by a demon after a fight with an evil cultivator.
Soon, she was placed by Wu Chen in a secluded house.
Wu Chen put her on the bed and took her pulse to check her condition.
He used his demonic powers so much that he became possessed.
Wu Chen chanted the Heart Purification Mantra for her for quite some time before the woman on the bed woke up slowly.
"Hmm...headache..." Shen Shuyi opened her eyes and saw Wu Chen, her eyes full of confusion.
"Master...what's wrong with me?"
"You have gone astray. If you continue to practice, I'm afraid your meridians will be severed and you will die within a month."
Shen Shuyi's lips were pale, her long black hair was scattered around her waist, and her eyes were full of sadness.
"I have already died once. If I had not been thinking about revenge, I would not be alive today..."
Wu Chen looked at her and saw that her face was pale and she was having difficulty speaking, which made her look extremely pitiful.
Whether it was dual cultivation or practicing evil skills, she did it only for revenge.
Wu Chen's mood sank slightly, and for some reason, he felt a sense of loss.
Shen Shuyi didn't look at him, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
After she fell asleep, Wu Chen just kept looking at her sleeping face quietly without saying a word.
If she is unwilling to give up all her demonic powers, she will need pure Yang Qi to harmonize the evil Yin Qi running rampant in her body.
At least once every three days until it is completely eliminated...
Wu Chen was hesitant.
The voice in my head became more and more bewitching.
"You don't want to save her? If you don't want to, just let me out. I am willing to do so."
"Such a cute little flower demon, I am willing to do it a thousand times."
"Could it be... that you are afraid that the taste of the marrow will ruin your Buddha's heart?"
There was a burning light surging in Wu Chen's eyes, which were neither sad nor happy. He lowered his head to look at the little flower fairy who was sleeping with a slightly frown on her face.
He subconsciously reached out his hand and gently smoothed the little flower demon's frown with his fingers.
Shen Shuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her lips were pursed, as if she was enduring painful torture.
Wu Chen looked at her, and the conflict in his heart grew deeper.
