White tea legend

Chapter 266 Evil Spirit
"Official!"

Bai Cha rushed towards Lu Yu, and the couple hugged each other and cried.

……

At the highest point of the castle, the roof seems like a portal to another world.

Lu Yu followed Bai Cha and sat on the roof, attracted by the strange scenery that was divided into two.

Lu Yu looked to one side and saw the Demon Realm, where the environment was undoubtedly harsh. The dark red sky was filled with the smell of sulfur, the ground was cracked into deep gullies, and magma was flowing slowly in the cracks, emitting a faint red light.

However, in this wasteland, there is a group of white tea trees that look particularly beautiful. Their tall branches are hung with crystal clear tea leaves, like the most gentle green gems in the devil's world, bringing a glimmer of life to this dead world.

"That was planted by me." Bai Cha said to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu gave a thumbs up while drinking white tea.

Turning to look to the other side, that was the scene of the demon world.

Compared to the desolation of the demon world, the demon world is like a fantasy in a dream. The sky is a mysterious purple, and the clouds float lightly. Occasionally, a brilliant light penetrates the clouds and illuminates the forest below. Huge trees stand tall, their canopies covering the sky like umbrellas, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants form a colorful ocean under the trees. The stream flows by, and colorful lights and shadows are reflected on the water, while some strange little animals jump and play in the woods, making pleasant chirping sounds from time to time.

Standing on the roof of the Demon Realm Castle, Lu Yu and Bai Cha witnessed the coexistence of two completely different realms. On one side was a touch of surprise in adversity, and on the other side was infinite vitality in mystery. At this moment, Lu Yu felt an unprecedented tranquility and harmony, and found his inner balance in this double-sided scenery.

But Baicha was worried.

"My wife, I heard from the Little Dragon King that you had a battle with Ruiyu and then disappeared. Everyone is very worried about you. How did you end up between the demon and monster worlds?" Lu Yu asked Bai Cha.

Bai Cha frowned and said, "Sir, I'm going to tell you something strange. Do you believe it?"

Lu Yu's heart tightened: "Madam, what happened?"

"Sir, I found that I was possessed by Ruiyu..."

Ever since the battle between Danshui and Ruiyu, Baicha thought that he had defeated Ruiyu and destroyed this evil god, but in fact it was not that simple.

Bai Cha felt that his existence was divided into two, one half was immersed in the desire for chaos, and the other half was longing for order and light.

As long as he was among those who claimed to be righteous, Bai Cha felt a strong urge to overthrow everything and plunge the world into chaos. For example, in the prison cell of the Heavenly Palace, Bai Cha seemed ready to release the power of destruction at any time to tear apart the order around him, so he used his charm to cast charm on every immortal sent by the Heavenly Emperor, and the immortals fell into his charm one after another. Bai Cha became addicted to the pleasure of destroying justice.

When Bai Cha was in an evil environment, she was pulled by another force, eager to become the light of dawn. She hoped that she could cleanse the filth around her and guide the lost souls to the light. In this dark realm, Bai Cha became a symbol of hope, and she tried to touch those cold hearts with her existence.

Baicha struggles at the intersection of justice and evil.

"Sir, that's why I stayed in the demon world after being rescued from heaven by the devil. Later, the demon and monster worlds went to war, and the savior's heart in me was aroused again. So I lived in this ancient castle at the junction of the demon and monster worlds to prevent the war between the two worlds and stop them from doing bad things. Sir, I'm so worried that I will be trapped in the demon and monster worlds and never get out..."

Lu Yu understood that Bai Cha was afraid that if he went out into the bright world, he would be controlled by Ruiyu's evil soul again and do all kinds of bad things.

"But my lady, why don't we try again? Maybe this is all just a misunderstanding."

Lu Yu had to see it with his own eyes before he could believe whether Bai Cha's judgment was true.

When he was alone before, Bai Cha didn't dare to go out and try, for fear of causing trouble and having no one to clean it up.

Now that Lu Yu has come to her side, she knows that there is someone who can cover for her, so she has to judge again whether her judgment is correct.

Lu Yu knew the inner struggle and contradiction of Fairy Bai Cha, and was determined to take her away from this conflict-ridden castle and find a place where Bai Cha could freely control her power. However, just as Lu Yu and Bai Cha were about to leave the castle, the Demon Lord Zi Zhu appeared.

The appearance of Demon Lord Zizhu was accompanied by a powerful pressure, and the atmosphere in the entire castle suddenly became solemn.

He was wearing a purple robe, with a calm smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a cold light. He whispered: "Fairy Baicha, are you really going to give up the glory of our demon world for the mortals of this world?"

Bai Cha stood in front of Lu Yu. Although her figure was weak, at this moment she was like an indestructible barrier.

"Demon Lord Zizhu, I have no intention of being your enemy, but I cannot let Lu Yu get hurt. What I'm looking for is just a place of balance, where I can control the power within myself and stay away from the temptation of evil."

Zizhu sneered, and as he flipped his palm, purple magic beams attacked Lu Yu. Baicha tried to stop them, and the top of the ancient castle immediately turned into a battlefield of fierce fighting.

The White Tea Fairy waved her sleeves lightly, and the white tea leaves seemed to turn into countless sharp blades, colliding with the purple beams of light, making a harsh collision sound.

Although Lu Yu was a mortal, he did not want to be a bystander. How could he bear to see his wife being bullied by others?

He picked up a stone from the ruins of the ancient castle. Although he knew that such an attack would be insignificant to the Demon Lord Zizhu, he still threw it out without hesitation, trying to buy a chance for Fairy Baicha to breathe.

However, when Purple Bamboo Demon Lord raised his hand, the stone turned into a boomerang and hit Lu Yu on the forehead.

"Ouch!"

There was a big bump on Lu Yu's forehead.

Bai Cha was angry.

As the battle escalated, Purple Bamboo Demon Lord gradually felt the pressure.
The power of the Tea Fairy continued to sublimate in anger and persistence, and her body began to emit a dazzling light, resisting Zizhu's magic. Finally, in a powerful energy burst, Zizhu was forced to retreat. He knew that Baicha was powerful, but he didn't know it was so powerful. He didn't expect that the White Tea Fairy could exert such amazing power.

Taking advantage of the moment when Purple Bamboo Demon Lord was stunned, Bai Cha grabbed Lu Yu's hand, and the two of them turned into a stream of light, broke out of the confines of the ancient castle, and disappeared into the vast demon world.

Purple Bamboo Demon Lord looked at the direction they left, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. Was he going to chase them?
……

Xianyuan Village.

The villagers lived a simple and peaceful life, away from the troubles of the world. However, all this began to change quietly after Lu Yu arrived with the White Tea Fairy. At first, the villagers were friendly to the two outsiders.

However, the good times did not last long.

The evil spirit in Fairy White Tea's body began to cause trouble, and her mood became extremely changeable, sometimes gentle as water, and sometimes as violent as thunder.

The villagers began to notice something strange. The crowing of chickens and barking of dogs became more frequent, breaking the quiet of the night. Even the usually docile livestock became restless.

Lu Yu knew something was wrong, so he stayed by Fairy White Tea's side day and night, trying to calm the evil spirit in her body with his meager power. But the power of the evil spirit was far beyond his imagination, and Fairy White Tea's power was gradually out of control. She began to unconsciously release powerful energy fluctuations, causing strange changes in the surrounding environment.

At night, the White Tea Fairy suddenly disappeared.

Lu Yu anxiously looked around and finally found her standing in the center of the village. The branch in her hand emitted a dim light. The surrounding plants withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the livestock fled in panic. The villagers were so frightened by this scene that they dared not approach and could only watch from afar, their hearts filled with fear.

Lu Yu rushed forward and tried to awaken the consciousness of the White Tea Fairy, but was bounced away by a powerful force.

At this time, a mysterious figure appeared in the village, claiming to be a Taoist priest from afar named Qingyun. Qingyun revealed that the evil spirit in the body of the White Tea Fairy was extraordinary, it was transformed from the soul of an ancient evil god, and if it was not controlled, it would bring endless disasters to the world.

Taoist Qingyun suggested that only by finding the legendary "Fountain of the Soul" could the evil spirit in Fairy Baicha's body be purified.

Lu Yu decided without hesitation to take Baicha and embark on a journey with Qingyun to find the fountain of the soul.

However, the Purple Bamboo Demon Lord appeared and blocked their way.

Demon Lord Zizhu has only one goal - to bring Fairy Baicha back to the demon world.

The arrival of Purple Bamboo Demon Lord was like a shadow hanging over the village. He was tall, wearing a purple demon robe, with a look of majesty and coldness on his face. His voice was like the cold wind of winter, piercing people's hearts: "Fairy Baicha, you must come back to the demon world with me, that is your true home."

Lu Yu stepped forward and refused to let Demon Lord Zizhu take Baicha away.

"She is my wife, I won't let you take her away!" Lu Yu said righteously.

Taoist Qingyun was also ready for the battle. Since ancient times, the devil is one foot higher than the Tao, and the devil and the Tao cannot coexist. He quickly set up the formation and prepared to meet the attack of the Purple Bamboo Demon Lord.

Purple Bamboo Demon Lord sneered and waved his hand, sending dark energy towards them. Taoist Qingyun used all his talismans and formations to try to resist Purple Bamboo's attack, but it was obvious that his power was far inferior to that of Purple Bamboo Demon Lord.

Although Lu Yu could not use his magic power, he had the memory of the ancient gods. At this critical moment, he relied on his own knowledge to guide the Taoist Qingyun, telling him how to draw talismans and how to arrange formations.

"Try this talisman, it was used in ancient times to block powerful forces!" Lu Yu instructed loudly. Taoist Qingyun quickly drew a complex talisman according to Lu Yu's instructions and pasted it on the key positions on the ground. At the same time, they used the natural environment of the village to set up a complex formation in an attempt to trap the Purple Bamboo Demon Lord.

Purple Bamboo Demon Lord felt the power of the formation, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. "Do you think you can trap me like this?" He roared, releasing even more powerful dark energy, trying to break the shackles of the formation.

At this critical moment, Fairy Baicha suddenly regained consciousness. Deep in her heart, gratitude towards Lu Yu and resistance towards Purple Bamboo Demon Lord burst out at the same time. She struggled to stand up and walked towards the center of the formation. Her body began to emit a soft light, which formed a sharp contrast with the dark energy of Purple Bamboo Demon Lord.

"No, I don't belong to the demon world, and I can't let you take me away." Although the voice of Fairy Baicha was weak, it was full of determination.

Her light combined with the formation actually began to purify the dark power of the Purple Bamboo Demon Lord.

The Purple Bamboo Demon Lord felt an unprecedented threat, and his power was constantly weakening. Finally, with a loud bang, his figure gradually dissipated and was driven back to the demon world.

After the Purple Bamboo Demon Lord was driven back to the demon world, Taoist Qingyun quickly took out a sleeping talisman and asked Fairy Baicha to drink it. Fairy Baicha fell into a deep sleep under the effect of the sleeping talisman, and was temporarily safe from the danger of evil spirits. Lu Yu and Taoist Qingyun took her on a journey to find the "Spring of the Soul".

"Where is the spring of the soul?" Lu Yu asked Taoist Qingyun.

Taoist Qingyun only heard that the "Spring of the Soul" was located in a distant ancient forest, which was full of unknowns and dangers. They had to go through dense thorns, climb steep mountains, and even face attacks from various fantastic creatures. During the journey, they were attacked by wild beasts many times, and sometimes there would be piranha plants suddenly emerging from under their feet, trying to devour the travelers passing by.

In addition to the dangers of nature, the bad weather during the journey also constantly tested their will. They experienced violent storms, lost their way in the desert, and even once, they were almost washed away by a sudden mountain torrent.

Despite facing numerous difficulties, Lu Yu and Taoist Qingyun did not give up. They knew that only by finding the "Spring of the Soul" could they completely purify the evil spirit in Fairy Baicha's body.

Lu Yu was fulfilling his responsibilities as a husband in order to save his wife, while Taoist Qingyun was fulfilling his mission as a Taoist priest.

The two of them traveled through mountains and rivers with the White Tea Fairy.

Taoist Qingyun used his rich knowledge of Taoism to give guidance, while Lu Yu, with his indestructible will and deep affection for Fairy Baicha, was able to overcome danger time and time again.

After countless days and nights of arduous journey, they finally arrived at the legendary ancient forest.

In the forest, the air was filled with a mysterious and fresh atmosphere, and the surrounding trees appeared unusually lush, as if all life was showing them that this was the location of the "Fountain of the Soul".

Lu Yu and Taoist Qingyun looked at the holy land in front of them excitedly. They believed that the "Spring of the Soul" was not far away. And the sleeping White Tea Fairy would soon be purified and free from the troubles of evil spirits.

Taoist Qingyun took out his compass and placed it on the ground.

This is a long-standing magic weapon that can guide unknown secrets.

Taoist Qingyun closed his eyes and muttered something, forming seals with his hands, injecting a weak magical power into the compass. The compass needle began to rotate and pointed to the northeast direction of the forest.

"Over there!" Taoist Qingyun opened his eyes and ran towards the northeast.

Lu Yu followed closely with Bai Cha on his back. They carefully passed through the dense woods, avoiding those seemingly ordinary but hidden traps. The spiritual spring in the forest seemed to have a mysterious power that made the surrounding creatures extremely alert.

After searching for a while, they saw a cave entrance hidden behind the waterfall.

This is where the fountain of the soul is located.
