I, the Chaos Entity, joined the chat group at the start.

She didn't tell her sister that she simply wanted to go out and have some fun on her own. Dongfang Huaizhu was unaware of this and was currently focused on finding suitable medicinal herbs.

The closer you get to the border, the sparsely populated the area becomes, with few towns and even fewer people at night.

The sky was dark and the cold wind howled, as if ghosts were roaring in the shadows.

Normal people wouldn't come out at night, so it would be perfectly reasonable for a ghost to jump out at any moment in this atmosphere.

However, this was child's play for Dongfang Qinlan and Dongfang Huaizhu, who came from a family that exterminated demons.

As long as it's not a demon king, they can deal with it easily.

Even a demon king would be defeated by the pure Yang Flame, the divine fire that destroys demons.

"Sister, everyone says there are many monsters in the Southern Frontier, but I haven't seen a single one. Did you know I was coming and run away in advance?" Dongfang Qinlan said with a smile.

"Keep a low profile. Monsters are elusive and lurk in the shadows; they won't appear in front of you openly," Dongfang Huaizhu warned.

“With my sister here, I’m not afraid,” Dongfang Qinlan said with a playful smile.

At the same time, the live stream room of the Dadao chat group was opened.

Princess of Shenhuoshan Manor: "Hehehe, let me show you my older sister who is as beautiful as an angel!"

The live stream started, and group members joined, seeing the environment the two sisters were in.

Wang Wu: "This is your sister. Wow, she's so beautiful. I really want to kiss her. Mwah!"

Qian Renxue: "!!!"

Angel Yan: "I'm going!"

Wang Qiu'er: "!!!"

Star Illusion King: "Terrifying!"

Qingyun Lu Xueqi: "!!!"

She loves drinking animal milk: "Sister Qin Lan, did your sister make that pastry?"

Dongfang Qinlan: "Yeah! Hehe, isn't my sister pretty? She's single!"

Chu Luoli: "Seriously? Are you using your own sister as an example? Does your sister even know? Are young girls these days really that shrewd?!"

Xiao Yan: "Terrifying!"

Fang Yuan: "Interesting."

Dongfang Qinlan: "What? Then I'm turning off the live stream."

Loves drinking animal milk: "Don't turn it off, but if you look closely, Qin Lan, your sister is also a fat woman, very fit."

Dongfang Qinlan: "..."

The Holy Maiden Who Mending the Heavens: "Outrageous".

……

Chapter 367, The Calamity

night.

Dongfang Qinlan and Dongfang Huaizhu arrived at a small town.

The town was quiet, with hardly anyone in sight, and not even a single light. A faint demonic aura permeated the air, which, though not strong, still made Dongfang Huaizhu wary.

Dongfang Qinlan was swimming and eating candied hawthorns, looking very happy and oblivious to her surroundings.

"Little sister, be careful. There's something strange about this town," Dongfang Huaizhu warned.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. With my sister here, any monsters that come will be burned to ashes by our family's divine fire," said Dongfang Qinlan.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huaizhu smiled indulgently.

After walking around the town for a long time, they finally found an inn that was still open. However, there was only one old man in the inn. This old man was human, not a monster in human form, which reassured Dongfang Huaizhu a lot.

It's just strange that this town is clearly deserted and has an eerie atmosphere, so why is this old man still here?

The old man cooked some food for the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters, then sat at the doorway, gazing into the distance and sighing.

“Grandpa, there doesn’t seem to be many people in this town,” Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

The old man looked worried. “Young lady, you don’t know this, but a while ago there was a monster here. Many young men were taken away, including my son. It caused a lot of panic, and many people moved away. Now there are only a few families left.”

"A monster? What monster?" Dongfang Qinlan became interested.

"I don't know. Every time it appears, it's just a cloud of black mist, and you can't see its exact appearance at all. You two young ladies, judging from your attire, you're not ordinary people, but you should leave as soon as possible," the old man advised.

"Uncle, don't be afraid. My sister and I are cultivators. We can annihilate a mere demon in the blink of an eye," Dongfang Qinlan said confidently.

"A cultivator??" The old man clearly didn't believe it.

Seeing this, Dongfang Qinlan raised her hand, and pure crimson-gold Yang Flame appeared in her palm, the flames swirling and captivating.

"Fairy!"

Upon seeing this, the old man was so moved that he immediately bowed down in reverence.

Ordinary people don't really have a concept of cultivators. As long as they can fly and summon fire or water orbs, then to ordinary people they are immortals.

“Uncle, there’s no need for such a formality.” Dongfang Huaizhu helped the old man up.

"Immortal, please save my son! He's been missing for over a month, and we don't know if he's alive or dead," the old man cried.

"Don't worry, old man. If we find the monster causing trouble here, we will certainly act on behalf of Heaven," Dongfang Huaizhu replied.

As the eldest princess of Shenhuo Mountain Manor, a clan dedicated to exterminating demons, Dongfang Huaizhu appears delicate but is actually chivalrous and courageous, a woman who is just as capable as any man, and she deeply hates those evil demons.

Now, this monster is causing trouble in the border region of the human race, capturing so many people and emptying out a small town, leaving only a few old people. It's simply insane.

The old man told the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters a lot of information. After listening, Dongfang Huaizhu slowly analyzed the origin of this monster. Its strength should not be very strong, it is not at the level of a demon king, and it is good at using poison mist. It seems that it should be a demon from the Southern Kingdom.

However, the Southern Kingdom is different from other demon races. The Southern Kingdom basically does not actively invade humans, and there has never been a case of capturing people on such a large scale.

It's all because there is a great demon emperor, the Poison Emperor Huan Du Qingtian, in the Southern Kingdom who has lived for tens of thousands of years. This Poison Emperor is capricious and has a strange temper. He rarely appears in the outside world, but his strength is beyond doubt. He has also imposed many restrictions on the demon race in the Southern Kingdom!

Given this situation, Dongfang Huaizhu wondered if something had happened inside the Southern Kingdom.

Not long after, another unexpected event occurred: three more people appeared outside the inn.

One scholar and two burly men.

The scholar wore a Kongming hat, had long, black hair, but a strand of white hair behind each ear, and held a feather fan in his hand, looking quite elegant.

The two burly men had fierce faces and powerful auras; they possessed magical power and were not ordinary people.

"Shopkeeper, bring us some wine!" the two burly men shouted at the top of their lungs.

The pale-faced scholar looked around and spotted the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters in the shop; a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

"Sister, that person is watching us," Dongfang Qinlan whispered.

Dongfang Huaizhu remained calm; she had never met these three people, but had heard of them.

It should be the renowned cultivators of the Qi Dao Alliance, Jade-Faced Wind Lord Ximen Chuisha, the Tiger and Crane Twin Immortals.

Especially the Jade-Faced Wind Lord, whose strength should not be underestimated, his wind control technique is unparalleled.

The Tiger and Crane Immortals clearly noticed the Eastern Sisters, and their pupils flashed with a momentary heat when they saw the divine fire mark on their foreheads.

Clearly, they knew from a single mark that this was a descendant of Shenhuo Mountain Manor.

Because the successor of Shenhuo Mountain Manor in this generation is a woman, Dongfang Huaizhu and Dongfang Qinlan basically do not leave Shenhuo Mountain Manor. Even when they go out, they will hide their identities.

This generation came to the southern border region, and because it was sparsely populated, they did not hide themselves.

I never expected that the Jade-Faced Wind Lord and the Tiger-Crane Twin Immortals would be here.

The entire cultivation world, and even the One Qi Alliance, all claim to be the righteous path.

But even the righteous path is human, and it has its own selfish desires. In the eyes of many cultivator families, the bloodline of the Eastern family is as delicious as the flesh of Tang Sanzang.

If one could obtain a girl from an Eastern family, it would be enough to give the next generation of one's family a head start from birth.

Moreover, the Eastern bloodline itself is a treasure, with numerous benefits.

The Tiger and Crane Immortals were tempted by the offer, but they didn't act immediately. After all, she was still the princess of the Divine Fire Mountain Manor, and the head of the Dongfang family was still the top expert in the Dao Alliance on the surface. Even if they took the Dongfang bloodline at this time, they wouldn't be able to use it. Instead, they would be hunted down by the entire Dao Alliance.

Dongfang Huaizhu was able to sense the greed of the Tiger and Crane Immortals, but she should pay more attention to the Jade-Faced Wind Lord.

The Jade-Faced Wind Lord is very good at hiding his true nature. He appears to be kind and elegant, but in reality, he is like a venomous snake.

Jade-faced Wind Lord, holding a folding fan, walked to Dongfang Huaizhu's table. "I've heard that the old hero Dongfang of Shenhuo Mountain Manor has two pearls, which must be two young ladies."

My name is Ximen Chuisha, nicknamed Jade-Faced Wind Lord. I have met two Eastern ladies.

Yu Mian Feng Jun revealed what he thought was a refined and handsome smile, exuding his charm in an attempt to attract Dongfang Huaizhu.

His nickname is Jade-Faced Wind Lord, and his looks are certainly not bad, which makes him popular with many female cultivators.

However, it was of no use to Dongfang Huaizhu, as Dongfang Huaizhu was completely uninterested.

However, for safety's sake, Dongfang Huaizhu did not act aloof, but simply replied with a lighthearted remark.

……

Chapter 368 Naive Dongfang Huaizhu

"Ximen Chuisha!"

"That's a weird name!"

"Why is it called 'blowing sand'? People usually call it 'blowing snow,' but this sounds much nicer."

Dongfang Qinlan couldn't help but laugh, finding the name Ximen Chuisha quite amusing.

Ximen Chuisha was actually quite angry after hearing this, but in order to maintain his composure in front of Dongfang Huaizhu, he still smiled elegantly, appearing very magnanimous.

Tiger and Crane Immortals suppressed their laughter. Although the three were fellow Daoists, they each had their own thoughts. Moreover, Tiger and Crane Immortals were indeed not as good-looking as Ximen Chuisha, so they were quite happy to see Ximen Chuisha being teased by a little girl.

“Qin Lan, you mustn’t be rude,” Dongfang Huaizhu said.

Although the other party will not attack them here due to family reasons, their father is seriously ill, and it would still be very troublesome if the enemy found out.

When you're out and about, it's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

It's best to stay away from people like Ximen Chuisha who have ulterior motives.

"It's alright, it's alright, children say the darndest things. Little Sister Qin Lan is still very cute," Ximen Chuisha said with a smile, showing his magnanimity.

Dongfang Qinlan chuckled, a hint of disdain in her eyes. Although she was young, she wasn't completely ignorant.

This Ximen Chuisha, with his forced smile and polite manner, was only coveting her Eastern bloodline and wanted to seduce her sister to gain her favor.

But how could her sister possibly be interested in such a pretty boy? He's so unreliable and frivolous.

Ximen Chuisha took the initiative to ask, "Miss Huaizhu, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huaizhu explained, "There are many rare medicinal herbs on the southern border. I would like to pick some to make elixirs."

Ximen Chuisha's eyes lit up. "Everyone knows that the Eastern family is the best at slaying demons with divine fire, but few know that they are also unparalleled in alchemy."

“Of course,” Dongfang Qinlan said proudly.

"However, Ximen Chuisha, what are you doing here?" Dongfang Qinlan asked in return.

"The three of us received a mission from the Dao Alliance. This small town is haunted by demons, so we came together to exorcise them. We didn't expect to run into two of you," Ximen Chuisha replied.

"So that's how it is," Dongfang Huaizhu said in realization.

This is, after all, human territory. So many people have disappeared in human territory, how could human cultivators possibly ignore it?

“The demons of the South are skilled in using poison. Miss Huaizhu, your Eastern family’s divine fire, Pure Yang Flame, is the nemesis of the demon race and can suppress all poisons. Why don’t we work together to eliminate the demons and have each other’s support?” Ximen Chuisha invited.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Huaizhu fell into thought. The two sisters were indeed in a rather dangerous situation.

Although Ximen Chuisha harbored treacherous intentions, he dared not do anything openly.

At the same time, she also wanted to help the old man at the inn find his son, aside from the monsters here.

Dongfang Huaizhu nodded, which was considered an agreement.

As night fell, the old man prepared a room for the Dongfang sisters to stay in.

Upon entering the room, Dongfang Qinlan blurted out:
