We finally arrived at our destination, Liujia Village.
As soon as Yun Lian saw the mountain, she thought Wan Fen was too much.
"Little Taoist priest, I don't want to go any further. It stinks there."
Yichan frowned, looking at the persistent dark clouds over Liujia Village.
It was formed by thousands of wronged souls piled up together.
"Besides that, what else did you discover?"
He chanted obscure and difficult-to-understand incantations, and a white light enveloped Yun Lian, instantly concealing all her demonic aura.
"The smell of blood, a very strong smell of blood, I don't like it there."
Yichan was shrouded in sadness, his eyes filled with compassion for humanity.
"But that's our destination, Liu Family Village... which may have become a ghost village in another sense."
His mission is to rescue the survivors of Liujia Village and remove the shadow that hangs over the villagers.
Yichan felt an aura that almost sent chills down his spine. Looking at the pure white little fox beside him, whose eyes still held a sense of bewilderment and ignorance, he ultimately couldn't bear it.
"Little fox, if you are scared, wait for me here. If you don't see me in three days, you can decide whether to stay or leave. As long as you don't do anything bad, I won't take you to the mountain again."
Yun Lian's bright eyes darted around.
“A promise is a promise, and nothing can be taken back, little Taoist. Well then, it’s settled. I’ll wait for you here. If you’re in any danger, just call me. If I can rescue you, consider it repayment for the two times you took my money.”
Yichan gave her a deep look.
"good."
He was just overthinking it. How could a demon, a being that lives only for itself, possibly risk his life alone with him?
Yichan silently turned around, without saying a word, and stepped in with heavy but firm steps.
Yun Lian stood still, obediently watching him enter Liu Family Village, which seemed to devour people.
The sliver of light emanating from him became the last ray of light to enter Liu Family Village. As his figure disappeared, the last glimmer of light was also swallowed up.
As soon as he left, Yun Lian's innocent and cute expression vanished instantly, as if she had become a completely different person, with every gesture exuding an air of strategic brilliance.
003's long-absent chatter returned. "Host, why aren't you going into Liu Family Village with the little Taoist priest?"
In the original story, the little fox went into Liu Family Village with him and shielded him from a fatal blow. He took her back to the Taoist temple to recover from her injuries, which led to the evil sect discovering the little fox's existence.
Yun Lian leaned against the donkey, and gently lashed its rump with the whip. The donkey then slowly carried her aimlessly.
The sky before me was like two colors, one side a beautiful blue sky with white clouds, the other side gloomy and terrifying.
"I definitely want to go, but I can't just rush to go with him like that. What good will that do?"
First disappoint him, then when he's on the verge of despair, appear like a god to rescue him from his predicament. This will definitely leave a deeper impression on him than if you risk your life alongside him from the very beginning.
003, having rewritten the original plot, had no choice but to acknowledge the host's thoughts.
In the original story, the little fox accompanied him into Liu Family Village from the very beginning. In fact, she was seriously injured in the end in order to save him, but she only got the result of not being violently taken back to the Taoist temple by him.
Not to mention, it made his heart flutter.
Otherwise, there would be no need for the evil sects to go to such lengths to bring them together.
As for not being violently taken back to the Taoist temple, its host had managed to do that from the very beginning!
"San'er, play the footage of the little Taoist priest going in."
"Okay, host."
003 acted very quickly.
A huge virtual light screen quickly appeared before Yun Lian's eyes. In the light screen, as soon as Yi Chan stepped into the village, he was attacked by the villagers who were already like puppets.
Yichan was careful not to harm the villagers, and it took him a long time to subdue the puppets.
The village of Liu was shrouded in a thick fog, and visibility was so low that it was almost impossible to see anything more than 10 meters away.
The shadowy figures in the fog are terrifying, making it impossible to tell whether the next thing to appear in front of you is a human or a monster.
"Oh my god, the red wedding dress, the ghost child, the thick fog—each of these things alone is terrifying and tangible. No wonder he's called a little Taoist priest; he can handle all of these things with ease."
Upon seeing Yichan injured once again by the ghost bride, Yunlian looked at his blue robe with multiple bloody cuts.
The face of the immortal, as still as a mountain, became even more eerie due to the bloodstains.
Yun Lian's eyes lit up.
Sure enough, she preferred seeing the young Taoist's brokenness to his aloof and arrogant demeanor.
"Goodbye, Brother Donkey, I'm off to find Little Damaged!"
Seeing the host's hurried and flustered manner in order to see the little Taoist priest, 003 felt a lump in his throat and couldn't help but start to reflect on his own actions.
Did he starve the host to death?
It's so alluring that she can't help but drool over this color.
It seems that from now on, it will have to make the host even more successful and send the host more high-quality men to play with.
While 003 was lost in thought, Yun Lian had already arrived at Liu Family Village.
The eerie black mist barely dared to touch the hem of her skirt; every time she took a step forward, the black mist would shrink back.
Yun Lian found this pattern amusing and almost ran like the wind, reaching Yi Chan's side without even taking a breath.
The moment Yichan saw her, he instantly pulled her behind him to avoid the Ghost Bride's attack.
"Why are you here? Didn't we agree to wait for me at the village entrance? This place is too dangerous for you."
Yun Lian instantly captured the ghost bride who was attacking her from all sides.
"Sister, why are your hands so warm?"
The pale little hand that she was holding tried to pull back, but it couldn't break free, as if it were being clamped by a pair of pliers.
Yichan noticed the movement between the two women and was startled.
They almost traded injuries for injuries, but managed to capture a bride wearing a tattered wedding dress.
Sure enough, apart from the strong stench of decay emanating from him, his body was elastic.

Sure enough, besides the strong stench emanating from his body, his flesh, along with the pale little hand she was holding, struggled to pull back, but he couldn't break free, as if he were being clamped by a pair of pliers.
