The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

Yu Liu and his companion walked through the downtown area, exited the main gate of Lingcheng, and headed to a town on the outskirts of the city, where they met up with other fellow disciples.

They came this time at the request of the townspeople, with the intention of subduing the fox demon that had recently caused cholera in Lingshan Town.

I heard that the fox demon was quite powerful and had eaten the hearts and lungs of many people before. The townspeople also paid money to hire someone to subdue it, but all of them never returned.

The mayor had no choice but to ask for help from the immortal sect. To be on the safe side, he sent letters to both major sects.

The two sects accepted the commission at the same time, and each side sent half of their disciples to work together to kill the fox demon.

Originally, a group of people were traveling together, but when they encountered the bustling market in Lingcheng, Liu Fengmian said goodbye and left the team, saying only that he would meet up in the town and would be back soon, then landed on his sword.

Yu Zhao wanted to establish his own character, so he naturally couldn't ignore Liu Fengmian, so he had to follow the forced landing.

The monks were fast, and in a few breaths, the two arrived at the meeting place and reunited with the other six fellow disciples.

It was still noon, and their original plan was to wait for the fox demon to come out and prepare to hurt people at night and then chase and encircle it.

But I didn't expect that the monsters nowadays are so rampant and arrogant. They are also so wanton at the foot of the fairy mountain and in the suburbs of Lingcheng where there are many cultivators.

Upon hearing the news from the townspeople, all the disciples rushed to the scene, but all they saw was a warm corpse with its heart cut out.

"Chase!"

Realizing that the fox demon had not gone far and that the evil aura was still lingering, Liu Fengmian turned his wrist, summoned his sword, and jumped out of the window.

Soon after, the rest of the people followed suit.

Following the direction of the evil spirit, the group chased it deep into the mountains, and after working together to block it, they finally blocked the fox demon's way.

There was blood on the corners of the fox demon's mouth, his claws were raised ferociously, his vertical pupils were staring at the monk who was blocking his way, his fangs were bared, and he looked extremely ferocious.

"Junior sister, please be careful." Yu Zhao maintained his character and did not forget to give a reminder at this time.

"Stop talking nonsense and go!" Liu Fengmian was not a person who liked to procrastinate. Recently, he felt that Yu Zhao was too noisy and was very unwilling to listen to the other's voice. The moment the fox demon's attention was attracted by Yu Zhao, he raised his sword and attacked.

"Senior Sister Liu, we will help you!" The fellow disciples around saw the opportunity and stepped forward to fight with the fox demon.

The monks were numerous and powerful, and even though the fox demon had strong magical powers, he was entangled in the fight and didn't have much chance to fight back.

The fox demon also understood that it would be disadvantageous to delay any further, so it released a burst of choking smoke and took advantage of the smoke to escape temporarily.

"Ahem! Don't run!" Liu Fengmian was standing closest to the front and absorbed the most smoke and dust, but she also saw clearly the direction in which the fox demon fled. She didn't want to let the fox demon go and harm mortals again, so she immediately picked up her sword and chased after it before everyone could react.

Yu Zhao stood at the back of the crowd. When everyone was working together to attack the fox demon, he seemed to be working very hard on the surface, but in fact he was just watching and not putting in any effort at all.

He knew that his strength was not much different from that of everyone else, and he was not as powerful as he pretended. However, he could not always rely on the power of the sword spirit to protect himself, so he wanted to find an opportunity to kill the fox demon when it was weak, creating the illusion that he was the core of the team.

However, the fox demon had a backup plan and escaped.

Yu Zhao originally didn't want to chase after them, because according to common sense, it would be bad luck if the group was separated.

However, he looked at Liu Fengmian's departing figure, his eyes rolled around, and immediately followed him.

This group of disciples from the immortal sect were fighting with the fox demon and looked quite embarrassed.

On the other side, You Mu was still leisurely strolling in the market, buying candied haws and edible dough figurines.

[Are you not in a hurry? Wait a little longer and Yu Zhao's popularity will be gone. Where can you go to kill people? ] Tian Dao showed his head and reminded.

With such a good opportunity to kill someone just now right in front of him, You Mu didn't take action?

[Would you like to eat candied haws? But you can’t seem to eat it]

You Mu stood at the stall where the old master was making dough figurines and asked the old man to make one in his image and then another according to his description.

[…Don’t eat it yet, go find Yu Zhao!] Tiandao was speechless. It was Tiandao, it didn’t like to eat these!

[Why are you acting like you've never been to a temple fair? What's so strange about this?] Tian Dao complained as he watched You Mu looking around.

You Mu kept chewing the amber candy, and replied in his mind:

[Ah... let me calculate. When I died... Fourteen, I really hadn't been to the rally. Can you really not eat these? They're quite delicious.]

As he spoke, You Mu shook the half-eaten candied haws.

[……] Tiandao was silent for a moment, but then he asked in a low voice without giving up, [Didn’t you say that you’ve lived for thousands of years… and you’ve never been to a market?]

[Most of the time, I was trapped in the formation. I had seen it, but I couldn't get out...] Later, when I was able to get out, my mind was full of revenge. How could I have the mind to travel to these places?

Staring at the colorful dough figurines that were becoming more and more lifelike in the master's hands, You Mu spoke indifferently.

There was another silence. Tiandao felt as if he had touched the villain's sore spot and revealed his unknown secret.

To be honest, it hasn't really understood You Mu's life experience.

Tiandao suddenly felt a little guilty, as if he couldn't explain the guilt.

It was not until You Mu took the small dough figurine representing Yu Huai, bit off the figurine's head, and chewed it vigorously that Tiandao said something hesitantly.

[Um, make me a dough figurine too! ]

You Mu turned around and walked back to the old master's stall. [You can't make a human being, you're just a ball.]

[I want the ball too! And I want the candied haws too! ]
