After nine lifetimes of reincarnation, the yandere villainous heroine descends.

Gazing in the direction Wen Yanyu had left, Shen Shuchou lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time.

He never expected that Wen Muxuan would fall into demonic possession. What shocked Shen Shuchou the most was the purple-haired woman, Ye Xie.

The other party turned out to be Wen Muxuan's senior sister, which was the main reason why Wen Muxuan fell into demonic possession.

Shen Shuchou knew that this was not the end, and that Wen Muxuan would come back to him sooner or later.

In any case, he is inextricably linked to this matter.

At that moment, Shen Shuchou suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. The remaining demonic energy continued to grow, like a cold blade cutting into Shen Shuchou's flesh.

Wow!

Shen Shuchou bent over, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, and a wisp of black mist appeared on his face.

"elder brother..."

Pei Rou, who was standing to the side, had not yet recovered from the shock she had just experienced, and was now utterly terrified by Shen Shuchou's actions.

"fine..."

Shen Shuchou forced himself to speak softly.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Shuchou felt the world spinning before his eyes, his mind went blank, and he fainted.

"Waaaah... Brother, what's wrong? Wake up!"

Pei Rou's eyes turned red from the sting of tears, which flowed out like a burst dam.

Her small hands gripped Shen Shuchou tightly, shaking his unconscious body repeatedly, as if that could wake him.

His eyes were filled with pain and despair, and his voice trembled as he called out Shen Shuchou's name again and again.

Upon seeing the situation, Li Qingyue immediately came over to check.

"Please, please save my brother."

Upon seeing this, Pei Rou immediately cried and pleaded with Li Qingyue.

She can only place her hopes on this woman now.

Pei Rou was afraid that Li Qingyue would not agree, so she knelt down and was about to kowtow, but was helped up by Li Qingyue's true energy.

"Don't cry, I will definitely save your brother."

Li Qingyue looked at Pei Rou, who was crying uncontrollably, and gently comforted her.

Li Qingyue focused her gaze on Shen Shuchou, and even at such close range, she couldn't help but pause slightly when looking at his face.

She had to admit that Shen Shuchou was exquisitely handsome, with features so well-proportioned that they resembled a fine sculpture.

However, at this moment, this handsome face was shrouded in black demonic energy.

His tightly closed eyes vaguely revealed an indescribable stillness, as if he had lost the luster of life.

His lips were black, as if he had been poisoned, making him look particularly eerie and terrifying.

The demonic aura on his face seeped into his skin like ink, creating a stark contrast with his original appearance, as if a dark force was eroding his flesh and soul.

Without any hesitation, Li Qingyue immediately channeled a stream of true energy into Shen Shuchou, hoping to dispel the demonic energy.

However, as soon as her true energy entered the wound, it was devoured by the remaining demonic energy.

Upon seeing this, Li Qingyue frowned slightly, somewhat disbelieving that this would be the outcome.

Although her true energy could initially heal Shen Shuchou's injuries, it is now of no use.

Li Qingyue refused to believe it and immediately channeled a large amount of true energy into the wound.

After a while.

As expected, Li Qingyue's continuous stream of true energy was completely devoured by the demonic energy.

Not only did it have no effect, it also made Shen Shuchou's face darken even more.

Li Qingyue maintained a calm expression, but her heart was in turmoil.

She immediately stopped and ceased channeling her inner energy, as all the inner energy she had channeled was devoured and assimilated by that demonic energy.

Li Qingyue's brows were furrowed tightly. Logically speaking, treating a mortal should not be this difficult.

This was the first time she had ever seen anything like this, but Li Qingyue knew that the problem lay in this strange demonic energy.

What puzzled her most was that the aura of this demonic energy was somewhat different from the demonic energy emanating from the woman just now.

This demonic energy appeared even more eerie, as if it were seeping out from endless darkness.

Little did anyone know that as the sword pierced Shen Shuchou's body, a trace of the Blood Nether Pearl's aura quietly entered Shen Shuchou's body.

"My...brother...he..."

When Pei Rou saw Li Qingyue stop moving, her heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose. Her voice trembled as she spoke.

"It's okay, I have a way."

After Li Qingyue finished speaking, she took out a pill from her bosom and, without saying a word, used her true energy to directly stuff it into Shen Shuchou's mouth.

As soon as the pill entered my stomach, a strong medicinal power flowed through my meridians.

At this moment, the dark aura on Shen Shuchou's face slowly faded, gradually revealing his pale face.

Pei Rou's face lit up with joy as the dark aura on her brother's face dissipated.

However, Li Qingyue was not pleased that the black aura had faded, because what she had fed Shen Shuchou was not any kind of treatment medicine.

What she gave Shen Shuchou was merely a longevity pill, a pill with extremely potent medicinal properties that could only prolong the life of a cultivator of her level for ten years.

But for an ordinary person like Shen Shuchou, it could be an astonishing century.

If an ordinary mortal were to consume this pill, they would be unable to withstand its powerful effects and would explode and die.

However, given Shen Shuchou's current condition, Li Qingyue had no choice but to feed him the pill.

Because Shen Shuchou's life force was rapidly draining away under the erosion of demonic energy, this was only the beginning.

Moreover, as demonic energy increases, lifespan will be lost faster and faster, and the vitality emitted by the longevity pill can only play a temporary role.

Although it was a pill that could add a hundred years to one's life, in Li Qingyue's view, Shen Shuchou could only live for three more months at most.

To completely remove the demonic energy from Shen Shuchou's body, another method needs to be found.

Shen Shuchou's state was different from Wen Yanyu's just now; the demonic energy did not attach to Wen Yanyu.

Li Qingyue's current solution is to temporarily stabilize Shen Shuchou's life force. She needs to return to the sect to find a solution.

Li Qingyue then settled Shen Shuchou and his sister in the restaurant she had just visited, and instructed the restaurant staff to take good care of them.

Knowing that Li Qingyue was an unfathomable immortal, the shopkeeper naturally dared not be negligent and kept the matter firmly in mind.

"Little sister, don't be afraid. I will come to see your brother again in a few days. I promise you that I will cure your brother."

Before leaving, Li Qingyue gently comforted Pei Rou.

"Thank you."

Pei Rou's tear-streaked face was full of sorrow.

Li Qingyue gave her one last look before leaving with the man in black.

"Senior sister, why should a mere mortal go to such lengths?"

As they walked out of the inn, the man in black asked, puzzled.

"Isn't cultivating immortality all about helping others?"

Li Qingyue said softly.

"But he won't live much longer. This demonic energy is extremely rare, and even that old man might have difficulty saving him."

The man in black continued.

He could sense this unique demonic energy; just that one aura made him feel as if he were in hell.

"How will I know if I don't try? Saving him might also be telling my past self that I didn't have the ability back then, but now that I have the ability, I naturally won't just abandon him."

Li Qingyue's gaze was fixed on the distance, her eyes revealing an indescribable sadness, as if the pain of the past was surging back into her heart at this moment.

She saw what she had once lost—the long-lost family affection.

Upon hearing this, the man in black said nothing more.

He also knew something about Li Qingyue's past; Li Qingyue had an older brother at the time.

However, something happened later, and Li Qingyue's brother was seriously injured and bedridden. Li Qingyue tried countless methods but could not save that life from passing away.

Seeing this brother and sister now seemed to touch a chord in Li Qingyue's heart, a chord filled with pain and resentment.
