Master is tempting, come to my disciple's arms

Bai Li, with something on his mind, couldn't sleep well. He was afraid that this incident was instigated by Mo Qianyu, who ordered the demons to attack Yuelan City, snatch Yue Longjing, and kill the villagers of Xishan Village. But then he changed his mind and thought that he had been with him for so long and knew him very well. He had no reason to do this. This idea was ridiculous. He had to stand firmly on Mo Qianyu's side and not have any doubts about him.

After tossing and turning for the Nth time, he suffered from insomnia...

Master, can’t you sleep?

Jiang Yuning was sleeping in the bed, with most of her body pressed against the cold and rough wall.

But it is still unavoidable to have skin contact with Master.

The left arms and right arms of the two were close together, and as long as Jiang Yuning hooked her fingers, she could easily hold hands with her master.

Smelling the faint scent of peach blossoms beside me, it really makes people feel distracted!

Bai Li couldn't fall asleep all of a sudden, so he just responded randomly, then slowly adjusted his breathing and forced himself to fall asleep.

The young man didn't dare to be too presumptuous, which was why Mo Qianyu was able to get there before him.

Because he has the desire but not the courage

Just like that, in a daze, the roosters outside crowed again and again. Xiaoying got up early and made breakfast for everyone.

Bai Li didn't need to sleep, but his soul was from another world and he couldn't stand it without sleep. Moreover, if he didn't get enough sleep, his brain would easily go offline.

Jiang Yuning only took a short nap and didn't sleep at all that night.

After breakfast, Bai Li asked Wang Ying to help look after the girl, while he and Jiang Yuning went to find out the truth about Yue Longjing.

The street was desolate and deserted, with not a single soul in sight. Occasionally someone would run quickly past the two of them, then disappear into their own home.

If this continues, when the food supplies at home are eaten up, they will have to risk their lives to go out and purchase necessities.

The two of them summoned their spirit swords and headed for the West Mountain.

On the way they had to pass Xishan Village. Jiang Yuning closed his eyes tightly, with a hint of pain hidden between his brows, full of sorrow.

Bai Li caught a glimpse of the boy's miserable expression and sighed in his heart how fate plays tricks on people. He never knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident.

This mountain is an undeveloped wild mountain with wild trees growing wildly, blocking out the sun. Wisps of spiritual energy spread like white mist, sometimes approaching Bai Li and the others, and sometimes floating past them at high speed. The muddy ground and green grass mixed together, inevitably dirtying their boots and wetting the boot surface.

There is abundant spiritual energy here, and no demonic energy has been found yet.

Bai Li and Jiang Yuning looked around carefully. Where there is spiritual energy, there must be monsters and spiritual beasts.

The two walked forward for a distance and saw several forks in the road ahead. They didn't know where they led to. Just as Bai Li was about to use counting to determine the direction of the road, a rustling sound of people came from the fork on the right.

Bai Li and Jiang Yuning looked at each other, and simultaneously clenched the magic swords in their hands. They concealed their breath and approached quietly.

At the bottom of the fork is a huge natural stone cave. Many villagers in coarse linen clothes are working with tools in their hands. Each of them is holding a shovel or a spade, and no one knows what they are digging.

Men and women, young and old, were sweating profusely as they shoveled away the dirt and vegetation on the ground. These people were the villagers of Xishan Village.

But he cried so sadly and heartbreakingly yesterday...all those tears were shed in vain.

He rolled his eyes and found that his mother was not there.

The bitterness in his heart filled his chest again. Bai Li was not clear about the situation. Were these people captured by the demons? Were they not dead at all? Thinking too much about the problem would really make his head hurt.

This demon behaves strangely and unconventionally, making him very difficult to predict.

The two were about to show up to find out what was going on, when at this moment, a woman's shrill screams and cries suddenly came from the cave, mixed with the man's rough teasing and joking voice.

Everyone at the cave entrance stopped what they were doing, each looking more embarrassed and angry than the other, some even covering their faces and sobbing.

"It's Aunt Jiang's voice. This devil can even attack a mother. It's really outrageous!"

"Yes, poor Aunt Jiang, her children are not around, no one can save her."

After hearing these remarks, Jiang Yuning could no longer suppress the pain and anger in his heart. He raised the sword in his hand and rushed in. Bai Li could only appear from behind the bushes, ignoring the stunned looks of the crowd, and flew in as well.

There were some stone platforms in the cave, and a few white skulls and some animal skeletons were scattered on the ground.

Water seeps out of the stone wall from time to time, making a dripping sound.

On the high platform in the middle, a masked demon was holding a ragged peasant woman in his arms. The peasant woman was trembling all over, with her hands on the demon's chest, tears all over her cheeks, looking extremely pitiful.

The young man stared at the demon fiercely with his bloodshot eyes. His eyes were so red that he looked even more terrifying than a demon.

He gnashed his teeth and roared, "Let my mother go!"

He jumped up, his hand had already drawn his sword, and he used his rough spiritual power to chop at the demon sitting on the stone platform.

The demon was shocked by the boy's rage. By the time he reacted it was too late. In order to save his life, he pushed the woman in his arms forward heavily.

Jiang Yuning's eyes were red with anger, and she cried out in sorrow, "Mom!"

Seeing that the peasant woman was about to die from the sword energy of his disciple, Bai Li gathered strength in his hands, and pure white spiritual power suddenly burst out, rebounding the sword energy.

The demon was about to escape, but Bai Li dodged and the cold sword blade was against the demon's neck.

"Tell me! Who is the mastermind behind this?"

"What exactly is your purpose?"

“How many people have you killed!”

With every question, the sword in Bai Li's hand dug deeper, causing a stinging pain in his neck, and bright red blood flowed on the sharp blade. The cold and indifferent tone made the demon shiver, not knowing whether it was because of pain or fear.

His eyes were as if he was looking at a dead object, and there was a layer of coldness in them. Being used to the Master's usual friendly and smiling face, he felt a sense of fear towards his current Master.

"Mom, are you okay? Yu Ning is late."

The young man took off his outer robe and put it on his mother's naked body. Jiang Hua's tears stopped instantly. When she saw clearly that the person in front of her was indeed her son, she could no longer bear the longing and sadness in her heart, and the mother and son hugged each other tightly.

"Good boy, just come back, just come back!"

After separation for a long time, his son has grown a lot from a child to a teenager, and his facial features have matured. He gently stroked Jiang Yuning's face with one hand, rubbing it gently, and he couldn't stop looking at him.

The demon was still resisting, Bai Li slashed at him with a sword, and blood splattered.

After falling to the ground, the demon turned into black mist and disappeared in the stone cave. The villagers outside the cave had already surrounded the cave entrance. They witnessed the whole scene and kept muttering, "It's the immortal, the immortal has come to save us, we are saved!"

Bai Li put away the magic sword and prepared to escort the villagers out of Xishan with Jiang Yuning. He took the lead and walked out of the cave, but he just walked out of the cave and refused to move another step.

Because... because the outside was surrounded by demons, Bai Li and his apprentice were standing in the front. The villagers behind had never seen such a scene before, and they were so scared that they dared not move.

The leading demon recognized Bai Li's identity and did not attack him. Instead, he led the other demons to bow and salute, and shouted in unison, "Greetings to the Demon Queen!"

Everyone was stunned, including Bai Li.

This... this is very embarrassing.

Moreover, the Demon... Demon Queen? How could a man like me become the queen?

When did it happen? How come I don't know?

Jiang Yuning was stunned when he heard that. His master had become the Demon Lord's Demon Queen?

The villagers behind him were in extremely complicated emotions. The immortal who came to save them turned out to be the Demon Queen?

What happened to this world...

The man looked embarrassed and coughed twice.

The leading demon thought that Bai Li was also looking for Yue Long Crystal, so he kindly reminded him that there was no Yue Long Crystal here at all, and it was all a lie. They said that there was Yue Long Crystal in Yue Lan City, but this Yue Long Crystal was not the kind they were looking for, but some extremely ordinary spirit stones.

Bai Li felt it necessary to get to the bottom of the matter. He whispered a few words into Jiang Yuning's ear, asking her to take the villagers away first, and if anything happened, he would stay behind to cover their retreat.

The boy was reluctant at first, but after looking back at the villagers and his mother, Jiang Yuning did as he was told.

Watching the villagers gradually disappearing into the jungle, Bai Li asked solemnly, "Did the Demon Lord instruct you to do this? Did he also order you to kill the Lord of Yuelan City?"

"The Demon Lord only issued an order. The killing has nothing to do with His Majesty."

"Oh? So you disobeyed orders and killed him yourself?"

The leading demon was still furious, "It's their own fault. They knew the whereabouts of Yue Longjing but didn't tell anyone."

Bai Li moved his wrist and thought this was a good opportunity to eliminate the demon.

The leading demon seemed to sense the strong murderous aura emanating from him, and immediately drew his weapons with the other demons to kill Bai Li.

"Humph, you overestimate your own abilities!"

With a disdainful smile on his lips, Bai Li threw the Qinghong in his hand high into the air, summoned several giant swords, and slashed at the demons swarming towards him.

The sound of swishing continued incessantly, and after a loud bang, the demon in front of him disappeared.

The surrounding thick tree trunks were left with sword marks that penetrated the wood.

Bai Li wondered in her heart, why did Mo Qianyu want Yue Longjing? For this rumored spiritual crystal whose authenticity was unknown, he killed the ruler of a city and forcibly took the villagers of Xishan away to dig up the ground everywhere in Xishan. Does the system know about Yue Longjing?

He called the system again, and this time Xiao Ba finally responded. He asked about Yue Longjing, but the system was silent for a long time as if it had autism...

Haha... Seeing the system pretending to be dead, Bai Li knew what the answer was.

Forget it, forget it. He didn't want to be angry. Getting angry too much was not good for his health.

No wonder Mo Qianyu hasn’t appeared for so long. Xu Luoge really drove him back to the demon world.

Fortunately, unlike other sects, they did not take extraordinary measures to kill you on the spot and grind you to ashes once they learned that you were a demon.

Bai Li couldn't help but sigh that Jiyue Mountain is quite humane~
