Each carrot was crystal clear, as if it had been soaked in water, and emitted a faint glow.

Inaba Tei was breathing rapidly, her throat bobbing, and she felt as if her eyes were about to be blinded by the scene.

"Thud—!"

Finally, Inaba Tei could not resist the temptation, swallowed hard, and walked forward shakily.

"Are all of these for me?"

Inaba Tei raised his paw, his fingertips trembling as he gently stroked a carrot, and asked in a low voice.

"of course."

After receiving a definite answer, Inaba Tei immediately picked up a carrot and took a big bite.

The sweet taste spread through her mouth, and she closed her eyes in ecstasy, savoring it carefully until she had chewed the carrot into bits and swallowed them. Only then did she lick her teeth contentedly.

At this moment, only two words came to mind.

tasty!

She lunged at the pile of carrots.

"My dream has come true!"

...

After noting down the address of Inaba Emperor's residence, Bai An took the mung bean cakes and headed east. The emperor said that there was a village a few dozen miles to the east.

Unlike a thousand years later, most of the houses here are made of wood and look very rustic.

However, what puzzled Bai An was that as soon as they entered the village, the villagers seemed to have seen ghosts and all fled in panic, avoiding them from a distance.

Is it that outsiders are not welcome here?

However, a woman's shout soon answered Bai An's question.

"There's a monster!"

The woman, dressed in coarse linen, screamed in panic the moment she saw him and the mung bean cake.

Upon hearing this, Bai An was stunned for a moment, then looked at the dragon horn of the mung bean cake beside him. How could he not understand? The villagers were all frightened by the mung bean cake.

After all, this is a different time from Gensokyo, where monsters eating people is commonplace, so it's normal to be scared like this.

Bai An sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

"Mung bean cake, can you put your dragon horns away?"

Green Bean Cake tilted its head, not understanding why he suddenly asked that question.

But she still nodded obediently.

Even if the dragon horns were put away, it wouldn't make much of a difference, since the villagers had already mistakenly believed that the mung bean cake was a monster.

So, after thinking for a moment, Bai An decided to find a place to stay first, and then slowly seek other solutions.

However, the next moment, a commotion arose not far away, accompanied by screams, and it sounded very chaotic.

Bai An raised an eyebrow and walked towards the source of the sound.

Not far away, two leopard demons were attacking a group of villagers.

There were already quite a few corpses lying on the ground.

The surviving villagers, armed with sticks and swords, fought desperately against the leopard demon's attacks, but were clearly at a disadvantage and could only barely maintain their defense.

The leopard demon's strength is roughly equivalent to that of a mid-level demon.

Moreover, it's clear that these two leopard demons are toying with the villagers. Although their moves are fierce, they always leave room for maneuver, as if they are playing a game of cat and mouse.

When the villagers saw Bai An's figure, despair welled up in their hearts. They were already having a hard time dealing with two monsters, and now two more had come.

"The older ones should be at the front, the younger ones at the back, and the underage kids should run to the sides!"

An elderly man who looked like the village chief stood at the front of the line and shouted anxiously at the crowd.

Although the villagers were afraid, they still obeyed his orders and stood in formation. They could die, but the village absolutely could not be wiped out.

Bai An's arrival not only attracted the villagers' attention,

Even the two leopard demons turned their gazes toward them.

"Oh ho, two of them have come to our doorstep."

A leopard demon grinned, revealing two rows of sharp, cold teeth, its eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty and ferocious light.

"Why don't we just eat them too?"

The other leopard demon echoed, its gaze towards Bai An and Green Bean Cake filled with malice.

"You mean you want to eat me and the mung bean cake?"

Bai An pointed at himself in bewilderment. He hadn't even said anything yet, and these two actually wanted to eat him?

Normally, shouldn't we ask him what kind of gang he's from, what his strength is?

Before he could even say a word, the other party threatened to kill them. Aren't they afraid of running into someone they can't afford to mess with?

What Bai An didn't know was that in this era, besides the standard for testing strength, the level of one's demonic power was also the standard.

The two leopard demons had already investigated the two people when they first discovered them. They found that the two were at most a little stronger than ordinary people, which is why they acted so recklessly.

"You'd better just be obedient and let the two of us eat you up, just like these villagers!"

The two leopard demons exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing a mixture of excitement and ferocity. Just as the lead leopard demon was about to make its move, Bai An smiled.

"Mung bean cake, go teach them to be demons!"

"Sizzle—"

Just as Bai An finished speaking, a whooshing sound rang out, followed by the sound of balloons exploding.

All that remained of the former leopard demon's location was a pile of minced meat and scattered internal organs.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that the other leopard demon didn't even have time to react before its companion disappeared.

At that moment, the leopard demon froze on the spot, a chill running from its tailbone straight to the top of its head.

He turned his head blankly and looked at the girl holding his companion's head.

"Give it to me, Master."

Green Bean Cake grabbed the hair on the leopard demon's head and handed his head to Bai An, his eyes filled with a plea for praise.

"Next time, just turn it into ash. Don't make it into pieces, and don't leave the head out."

Bai An quickly took the head and tossed it aside like trash.

"Oh."

The mung bean cake lowered its head in a pitiful manner.

At this moment, the other leopard demon finally reacted, took several steps back in terror, and then ran away, having lost all will to fight.

Their abilities are on completely different levels.

To die to die!

But as soon as he took a step, the air beside him suddenly fluctuated, and then a giant black hand appeared out of thin air and held him firmly.

The leopard demon struggled in fear and trembling, but could not break free.

At that moment, he truly felt the threat of death, and he struggled desperately, trying to escape.

"Weren't you so arrogant just now? Weren't you going to eat us up?"

Bai An approached slowly, smiling as he spoke.

The leopard demon's fur stood on end, and deep fear was evident in its eyes.

"Don't kill..."

"Bang--"

Bai An kicked out, shattering his knee.

"what!"

A shrill scream came from the leopard demon's mouth. He was writhing in pain, but because his body was tightly gripped by the Ender Hand, he couldn't move at all.

"Spare me, spare me, please let me go, just pretend I was talking nonsense."

The leopard demon was in excruciating pain, his face covered in tears and snot, and he kept howling, hoping that Bai An would release him.

"very noisy."

Bai An frowned, and his Ender Hand clenched tightly. With a cracking sound, the leopard demon's entire body was crushed.

Bai An withdrew the Ender Hand, and a lump of flesh immediately fell to the ground.

"Whoo~"

Bai An exhaled a breath of stale air, clapped his hands, and turned to look at the villagers beside him.

At this moment, the village chief, who was at the head of the group, walked over tremblingly and said cautiously.

"Thank you, sir, for saving us."

"Oh, aren't you afraid we're monsters too?"

Looking at the village chief in front of him, whose body was trembling uncontrollably and who kept thanking him, Bai An raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with interest.

"Whether you are a monster or not, you are our savior. Moreover, I suspect you must be an Onmyoji."

As he spoke, the village chief tried to kneel down and kowtow to express his gratitude.

However, an immense force supported his knees.

"No need to kneel. I'm not an Onmyoji. I'm just here to join in the fun."

Upon hearing this, fear appeared on the village chief's face, and he asked tremblingly.

"Th-are you a monster, sir?"

"monster?"

Bai An was taken aback, then shook his head in denial.
