Pei Lin was placed in the firewood house in the backyard of the Yanzhu House—the elderly and children taken in here lived in the backyard, and there was no room for a slender adult man.

Mammy brought him a bowl of water.

Pei Lin stared at the muddy water for a long time, and said, "Thank you."

His voice was hoarse, but his tone was clear.

Tianluan was slightly surprised, "Aren't you a fool?"

Pei Lin was silent and shook her head.

"Then why did my adoptive father say that you didn't fight back when you were beaten?" Tianluan's eyes fell on the fairy sword in his arms, "You disciples of the immortal sect should know some martial arts."

And Pei Lin seemed to have been shut off, since those two words, she never spoke again.

Seeing this, Tianluan no longer cared about him.

In her opinion, these disciples of the immortal sect are just pampered, and they will seek death after a little setback, so they are not worthy of sympathy.

The door of the firewood room was closed and locked, Su Yang wanted to take another look at Pei Lin through Tianluan's eyes, but couldn't.

See you again, seven days later.

When Tianluan came to the backyard, he happened to meet the nanny in the backyard, and asked her, "What happened to the young man locked in the firewood room?"

Mammy smiled and rolled her eyes, "He is already in good health! He didn't talk or eat for the first few days when he came here, but he already knows how to speak in the past two days, and he even volunteered to help the old man chop wood for me yesterday, alas, he is also a good boy .”

Tianluan didn't take it seriously, and laughed: "I hope he can perform well in the future."

Once he's in good health, it's time to let him go out to pick up guests.

Su Yang's consciousness knew what Tianluan was thinking, but he knew better that with Pei Lin's temperament, it was absolutely impossible for him to agree to sell himself.

She unlocked the lock, pushed open the door of the firewood room, and beside the woodpile, a slender figure leaned there, resting with eyes closed.

Tianluan laughed and said, "I heard that you are recovering?"

Pei Lin slowly opened her eyelids, saw that it was her, nodded and said, "Thank you for your care these days."

"You're welcome. Then... you can go out to pick up the guests today, right?"

"... Pick up the guests?"

"Yes, you live and live for nothing these days, so you can't sell yourself to earn some money to pay off the debt?"

Pei Lin was silent.

He said: "I will find another way to return the money to you."

"What else can you do?" Tianluan said, "You don't want to sell yourself, and you are not good at martial arts. If you go out and get slaughtered, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

Pei Lin's eyes moved slightly.

He was about to say something when he heard a noise from outside.

Tianluan turned her head and looked out, "I'll go and see what's going on, and I'll give you one last bit of time to think about it, don't toast and eat fine wine."

Su Yang's spiritual sense followed her to the backyard, and saw a strong man reeking of alcohol, holding a thin girl tightly with his arms, his fat intestine-like lips were about to kiss her neck.

The girl screamed in shock, and the elderly and children in the courtyard rushed forward to pull it, but they were thrown away with force.

Tianluan hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Guest officer, this is a handyman in our courtyard, he doesn't sell himself..."

"I don't care if she sells it or not, don't all the women in the devil world use it for fun? Why pretend to be innocent!"

"Sister Aluan! Help me..."

The drunk pushed Tianluan away, an old man came up to stop him, he was pushed violently, his back hit the stone millstone in the courtyard, and passed out from the pain.

Because of seeing all of Tianluan's memories, Su Yang knew that this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened in the Yanzhu Pavilion, and there were all old and weak women and children here, and no one could stop it.

In other words, such tragedies are staged every day in various parts of the Demon Realm.

Although the Yanzhu Pavilion is protected by Tianluan, it cannot be completely spared.

At this moment, a slender figure appeared behind the door of the firewood room.

With a cold face, Pei Lin strode up behind the drunk man, raised his hand and pressed him to the ground.

Su Yang saw scarlet devilish energy gushing out from his palm.

Su Yang was slightly startled.

The color of the demonic energy is related to the inner demons of the possessed, usually blue, black or purple, while scarlet... is the color only possessed by the possessed due to emotion.

Why is Pei Lin's demonic energy scarlet?

In Tianluan's sight, the drunk man's eyes were about to burst, he struggled violently twice with his hands and feet, and then his body stiffened upright, and he did not move anymore.

She couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Do you know martial arts?"

Pei Lin didn't make a sound.He withdrew his palm, and the surging devilish energy penetrated back into the gap between his palms, while the mouth of the drunk man below was bleeding, his complexion had turned black, he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

With a pale face, the girl stretched out her hand to check his breath, her fingers trembled suddenly, "Dead...dead."

Just one slap easily took the life of the drunk, which is enough to show the tyranny of Pei Lin's devilish energy.

Tianluan still couldn't believe it, "You..."

With such strength, why didn't he fight back when he was beaten up earlier?

Su Yang thought, he probably knew.

As the eldest disciple of the Zhaoxue Immortal Sect, Pei Lin is well aware of the influence of demonic energy on one's mind. Once one becomes obsessed and abuses the demonic energy, one will only sink deeper and deeper, and become more paranoid and crazy.

After going mad, all his originally powerful mana was transformed into devil energy, so he didn't want to use it, nor did he want to use it.

It's just that things in this world are never controlled by others.

Pei Lin turned around and said calmly, "I will take care of you from now on, and use this to compensate for my board and lodging expenses."

Tianluan hurriedly responded, "Okay, okay."

After she responded, she realized that Pei Lin was not asking at all.

No matter what, it would be a good thing for Yanzhu Pavilion to have an extra reliable guard.

After that, Tianluan no longer mentioned the matter of asking Pei Lin to go out to pick up guests, and arranged for him a bedroom in the backyard to eat and live with the elderly and children taken in by the courtyard.

After that day, two months had passed since I had contact with Pei Lin again.

On this day, Tianluan came to visit when he heard that the child in the hospital was sick.

Through Tianluan's eyes, Su Yang saw Pei Lin sitting on the side of the couch, surrounded by a few other children, chattering, "Aren't the gods in the fairy world not sick?"

"I heard that people in the mortal world have food and meat, is it true?"

"I really want to go out and have a look..."

The sick boy on the couch had a black face. Seeing Tianluan, the corner of his dry mouth forced a smile, "Sister Aluan, you came to see me."

Tianluan walked over, took the boy's hand, and gently patted his head.Although the movement was very light, the fallen hair still fell down and landed on the pillow.She said: "Eat more good food in the past two days, and then go on the road when you are full. We will visit you often in the future."

Hearing this, Pei Lin frowned slightly, "He is very ill, why don't you ask a doctor to see him?"

Tianluan was silent.

"There are not many doctors in the Devil Realm. What's more, this disease is not good. Two of them died of the disease last year."

"Do you know the cause?"

She sighed a long time: "You people from the fairy world will never know that the demon world has been invaded by demonic energy for many years. Those of us who are ordinary or even weak will get sick if we are soaked in demonic energy for a long time."

"The root cause of this disease is the devil energy. Unless the devil energy disappears or leaves the devil world, the body will only be eroded day after day. It would be better to die."

Pei Lin stopped talking.

The seriously ill child was lying on the bed with a lifeless face. He pulled Pei Lin's sleeve, "After I die, will my soul... ascend to the fairy world?"

Su Yang's heart sank when he heard this.

In the mortal world, there are indeed legends about people ascending after death.

But he knew very well that it was impossible for souls who died in the demon world to ascend to the fairy world, and that gate was like a moat separating the two worlds.Born in the Demon Realm, one can only reincarnate here from generation to generation. As Tianluan said, this can be called a curse.

Without hearing Pei Lin's response, the child guessed the answer.

Tears flowed silently from the side of his face, because he was soaked in demonic energy, even the tear stains were dirty and black.

Tianluan held his hand, "Good boy, didn't you promise me that you would be strong?"

The boy nodded, trying to raise his hand to wipe his eyes, but only for a moment, the tears burst out uncontrollably.

He whimpered intermittently, "I always thought that when I grow up, I can repay you... One day I will take you out of here, to the fairy world, to the mortal world... But I haven't had time yet..."

"I'm so unwilling...I don't want to die...I don't want to die!"

Su Yang saw that the bluish-black lifeless aura surged violently on that immature face, perhaps it was the inner demons that made his condition worsen.

"I don't want to die..."

Like a drowning man grabbing driftwood, he held on to Pei Lin tightly, "I really want... I really want to leave here... to have a look..."

Take a look at the fairyland, take a look at the world.

Before he could finish the following words, the devilish energy took his life away.

The boy was lying quietly on the sickbed, with only one pair of eyes left open in vain.

I don't know where I am looking forward to.
