Terrifying Heavens: I Slay Demons by Painting Faces

The woman fainted, surprising not only Chen Hengyi but also Si Mu. He quickly ran over and reached out to check, exclaiming, "Hey, it really is a person! How strange, how can there be a person here?"

Si Mu was completely baffled. He couldn't understand why there would be anyone in Wild Fox Gully, especially at this time—it was already dark.

The woman who fainted looked exactly like a vixen, but she was actually a human.

Chen Hengyi also felt that something was amiss, because he originally wanted to kill the fox spirit that Si Mu had encountered before, to see if he could get a reward or something.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he asked, "Master, if I don't travel with you, approximately how long will it take you to reach Wild Fox Gully?"

Si Mu pondered for a moment, then calculated with his fingers: "It should be a day or two late."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hengyi immediately understood.

The location is correct, but the timing is wrong.

Because Chen Hengyi had helped Si Mu with transporting corpses for the past two weeks, saving them a lot of effort, they were able to arrive ahead of schedule.

In other words, if he hadn't shown up, the woman would have surely died there.

Normally, there are only fox spirits here, and no one else at all.

He stroked his chin and muttered to himself, "Interesting."

Si Mu took the woman's pulse and then called out to Chen Hengyi, "Stop being silly, this person is about to die, come and help save her."

A moment later, the animal trap on the woman's foot was removed, and the wound was bandaged.

Four Eyes used his magic to clear the opponent's blood and qi, and stabilize their spirit.

Not long after, the woman woke up.

Upon seeing this, Chen Hengyi quickly stepped forward and asked, "What's your name? Why are you here?"

The woman was terrified, especially when she saw several zombies dressed in Qing Dynasty official robes surrounding her; she turned pale with fright.

"A ghost!!!"

She immediately wanted to run away. But as soon as she stood up, Chen Hengyi pressed her back down.

"You're the ghost, tell me!"

Chen Hengyi's utterly ungentlemanly behavior earned him a pat from the Four-Eyed Taoist: "A boy should be a little gentler."

He thought, how could such a perfectly normal child be so rude? So, Master Four Eyes put on a smiling face and asked the girl, "Young lady, what's your name?"

"Don't be afraid, I am a Taoist priest from Maoshan. Those are not ghosts, but just some poor people who died far from home." After the Taoist priest explained for a while, the woman finally spoke.

Chen Hengyi summarized the information.

Her name was Chen Lingxiu. Her family were opera singers. She had married and moved to Fujian five years ago and hadn't returned.

Now she brought people back to visit her relatives, but they were captured by that vixen.

"Singing opera? Surname Chen?" Chen Hengyi frowned, as if he had thought of something.

Then he quickly asked, "You said your father is a famous person, so what's his name?"

Chen Lingxiu raised her chin slightly, the pride in her eyes dispelling her fear: "My father's name is Chen Mianyu, everyone calls him Yu Miansheng, he's the head of the Nanhua Opera Troupe! Perhaps you've even heard my father sing!"

"really!?"

"certainly!"

Nanhua Class, Chen Mianyu, Yu Miansheng!

Chen Hengyi and Si Mu exchanged a glance, both of them seeing the unbearable sight.

The Nanhua Class was killed by Ren Zhi of the Ren family several years ago... and this was the case when Chen Hengyi was the one who tried them.

Now, Chen Hengyi never expected that the person he saved would be the daughter of Chen, the troupe leader, who had married and moved to another province...

Should we tell them this devastating news?

Chen Hengyi spoke first: "Wait a moment, we need to discuss something."

As he spoke, he quickly pulled Si Mu aside.

"What should we do? Should we tell her that the entire Nanhua class is wiped out?"

Si Mu scratched his head: "This child just escaped from the demon's clutches. If she finds out about this... I'm afraid she'll go crazy."

After discussing it, the two decided not to tell him yet and to pretend they didn't know.

After they defeat the demon, they'll find an opportunity to explain to Chen Lingxiu.

The two then returned to Chen Lingxiu and acted as if nothing had happened.

"It smells like a vixen! Could it be a fox spirit?!" Four eyes lit up.

But when Chen Hengyi looked down, he discovered Chen Lingxiu.

Chen Lingxiu nodded cautiously: "When I was running, I thought I heard a fox howling..."

There was no foxy smell on the other person, and Chen Hengyi knew what it was, but he didn't say it.

The Four-Eyed Taoist realized what was happening and silently stood up.

Chen Hengyi asked, "Where is the demon?"

Chen Lingxiu pointed in a direction, and upon seeing it, they immediately laughed: "Perfect timing! I've only been out for a short while, and these beasts have already started harming people... Perfect timing, let's wipe them all out this time!"

Chen Hengyi then asked the other person, "Did the others escape?"

Unexpectedly, Chen Lingxiu burst into tears the next moment, crying with extreme sadness.

Chen Hengyi understood.

Oh no! The entire Nanhua troupe has been wiped out, and my husband's whole family is dead!

this....

So he asked, "Next, you give us directions, and we'll help you kill those fox spirits and avenge your family. How about that?"

At this moment, Chen Hengyi thought that those fox spirits had already found a way to die.

First, they were actually harming people. Second, he also wanted to know if killing these fox spirits would trigger the reward in the Black Book, which he thought should be possible.

He's determined to kill that vixen!

Chen Mingxiu quickly stopped crying and asked incredulously, "You really want to go?"

That monster was so terrifying that she barely escaped and dared not even think of revenge again.

Chen Hengyi said again, "You talk too much nonsense. You just need to answer yes or no."

"Okay, I'll go!" Chen Mingxiu immediately agreed.

Chen Hengyi didn't hesitate and threw Chen Mingxiu directly onto a walking corpse.

This action immediately terrified the other party, leaving them completely flustered.

Chen Hengyi said helplessly, "Miss, you can't run anymore. You don't want us to carry you, do you?"

"Save my energy for killing demons. Besides, these are just moving corpses; they have herbs on them so they won't smell."

The mountains were shrouded in mist.

The group followed the direction Chen Lingxiu pointed out.

The zombie hopped and skipped along, carrying Chen Lingxiu in the middle of the procession. She clung tightly to the zombie's official robe, both afraid of the corpse and afraid of falling off.

Suddenly, Chen Hengyi saw the leader of the group make a hand gesture.

Less than half a minute later, a woman dressed in pure white glided out of the darkness, and Chen Hengyi also smelled a sweet fragrance!

That kind of thing involuntarily surfaced in his mind, and he suddenly felt that Chen Lingxiu seemed... to have a different kind of charm?

"Is this the fox spirit's seductive arts?" Alarm bells rang in Chen Hengyi's mind, and he was ready to thrust his eighteen-foot spear at any moment.

At that moment, the woman suddenly collapsed in front of the group with a cry, as if a kite had broken its string.

The clothes instantly fell apart, and the body lay half-prone on the ground, the snow-capped Alps stretching endlessly, rising and falling...

"So direct!?"

Gollum~

Master Four Eyes swallowed hard, a lecherous look on his face: "Oh my, where did this little beauty come from~"

As he spoke, he slowly walked over.

The woman seemed incredibly alluring; even though Chen Hengyi knew she was dangerous, his body involuntarily began to move forward.

Chen Lingxiu, perched on the zombie's back, was trembling uncontrollably, too afraid to look up. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Chen Hengyi walk forward and reach out to pull her back, pleading softly, "Don't go, she..."

Chen Hengyi, however, slapped Chen Lingxiu's small hand away and put down the heavy opera box.

He chuckled, brandishing his eighteen-foot spear, "Little beauty, why are you all alone so late?"

The fox spirit remained silent, only casting a flirtatious wink.

Chen Hengyi's heart pounded as the Four-Eyed Taoist priest pounced on him, ravenously demanding.

Soon, Chen Hengyi also approached, and Si Mu turned around to greet him, "Hurry up, bro, it's very nourishing!"

Chen Hengyi, with a lewd smile on his face, said, "Little beauty, want to try something fun?"

The fox spirit was curious; she wasn't afraid of mortal weapons, after all, she was a demon.

Although she wanted to absorb the essence, she didn't mind playing around with it first.

"Little beauty, do you miss your brother?"
