Shen Shuchou's only task at the moment was to quickly help the girl beside him overcome her timidity and achieve an amazing transformation.

The quickest way is to lead her down the path of murder, to let her experience the thrill of reaping lives with her own hands.

As for whether such an action is somewhat cruel and resolute for a fifteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth, a girl as beautiful as a flower, then...

For Shen Shuchou, such concerns and thoughts simply did not exist.

On another level, Fifth Qinghan is precisely the deepest, darkest, and most violent side of Fifth Shushuang's heart.

Even without Shen Shuchou's intervention, within the initial predetermined trajectory, Fifth Qinghan also blossomed and grew little by little amidst the bloody killings in the Death Court.

He eventually became the terrifying and fearsome Demon Lord of this world, someone who would flee at the mere sight of him.

In her eyes, there was no distinction between different levels of life; there was only an indulgence and enjoyment in extreme slaughter.

The only one who could restrain her was Fifth Shu Shuang, but within her original destiny.

Although Fifth Shushuang was rescued from the Death Court by righteous cultivators, he resolutely confronted Fifth Qinghan head-on.

However, she embarked on her cultivation journey later than the Fifth Qinghan.

Although the two women are both dual-body and single-soul, their cultivation progress is like a runaway horse, advancing rapidly.

Unfortunately, Fifth Book Shuang was slightly inferior in cultivation level.

In the end, he was ruthlessly devoured by the emotionless Fifth Qinghan.

The moment the remnants of their souls merged, no one could stop Fifth Qinghan's rampaging advance.

Now, Shen Shuchou's mission is to help the girl grow up rapidly.

Along the way, Shen Shuchou carried the girl on a rapid journey toward the southwest region, where there was a forbidden place called the Tranquil Land, which was the main base of the Death Court.

But the area is also teeming with demonic sects, and Shen Shuchou's target is undoubtedly them.

Two hours later, Shen Shuchou finally came to a stop on the edge of a forest cliff shrouded in deep darkness.

Fifth Qinghan stared at the gloomy surroundings, a slight fear rising in her heart, but she still used all her strength to suppress it.

Throughout the journey, she was pulled into the air by true energy, and it was also the first time she had experienced flying among the clouds.

This was undoubtedly a deeply unforgettable, moonlit journey for the girl.

Are you scared?

Shen Shuchou asked softly.

"I'm not...afraid..."

Fifth Qinghan replied weakly.

Although she spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, Shen Shuchou could still hear the tremor in her words.

Even though he felt pity for the girl beside him, these were all things she was destined to experience, and also the fate he himself was destined to fulfill.

Then, Shen Shuchou used his true energy to drag Fifth Qinghan rapidly down to the ground.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, Fifth Qinghan's body trembled violently, and his legs shook uncontrollably. He collapsed to the ground shortly afterward.

"Get up."

Shen Shuchou watched coldly from the sidelines, showing no intention of offering any assistance.

Fifth Qinghan pursed his lips tightly, and the fear in his pupils could no longer be concealed and was fully revealed.

But the thought that as long as she could go back, Brother Shen would wake up made the girl struggle to climb the big tree next to her, using both her hands and feet.

The girl's delicate skin was instantly cut with deep bloodstains when it came into contact with a sharp object.

Crimson blood gushed out, leaving a shocking stain on the ground.

The girl clenched her teeth and remained silent, large beads of sweat rolling down her forehead like rain.

Her eyes revealed determination and resilience as she struggled to climb the large tree beside her, relying on her indomitable will.

With each step forward, she gasped for breath, her slender fingers gripping the ground so tightly that her nails broke, and dirt embedded in her wounds, causing excruciating pain.

But she had no time to pay attention to that; she was focused on moving closer to the big tree, as if it were her only hope.

Finally, she climbed to the tree, and with trembling arms, she struggled to support herself and barely managed to stand up against the trunk.

"waste."

Seeing that Fifth Qinghan had stood up, Shen Shuchou remained ruthless and spoke coldly.

Fifth Qinghan remained silent, only staring stubbornly at him.

"Keep up with me."

Shen Shuchou couldn't bear to look into the girl's eyes, so he left those words and walked forward alone.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Shuchou's figure disappeared from the girl's narrow field of vision, which she could only catch a glimpse of.

In an instant, the surrounding darkness transformed into a surging tide of fear, wildly sweeping and gathering towards the girl.

Fifth Qinghan closed her eyes tightly, slowly calming her mind and trying her best to dispel the fear of darkness in her heart.

She didn't rush to follow, but after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, her legs slowly returned to the ground.

Then, the girl opened her eyes, gazed at the darkness again, and without the slightest hesitation, resolutely walked in the direction where Shen Shuchou had disappeared.

A gust of cold wind swept in, and the chill made the girl instinctively shrink back, but she quickly straightened her back again.

The path beneath her feet was rugged and uneven, and it was so dark that she could not see her own hand in front of her face. The girl even fell several times, and her body was cut and scraped.

Blood dripped into the darkness, but the pain did not deter her; instead, it fueled the stubbornness deep within the girl's heart.

The darkness was like a colossal furnace, and Fifth Qinghan was being tempered within it.

Her spirit gradually grew stronger under the baptism of fear, and her former timidity was gradually stripped away, replaced by a sense of calm acceptance.

After wandering alone in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, the girl's eyes were finally filled with light.

She came to a cliff, where the bright moonlight poured down without the cover of trees.

Bathed in moonlight, she spotted the figure waiting for her there.

Shen Shuchou stared at Fifth Qinghan walking towards him, especially at the scars on the other's body, and a wave of pity welled up in his heart.

But his words remained as cold as ever: "I thought you wouldn't dare to follow."

Fifth Qinghan did not utter a word, nor did she lower her head; she simply gazed at him calmly.

Shen Shuchou said no more. He unleashed his true energy, lifting the girl's body up once more, and together with himself, they instantly appeared on the other side of the cliff.

Upon reaching the other side of the cliff, Shen Shuchou did not abandon the girl this time, but deliberately slowed his pace and walked ahead of her.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shen Shuchou stopped in front of a magnificent yet sinister building. The four large characters "Blood Fiend Demon Sect" on the plaque above the door sent chills down one's spine.

This is a demonic sect of limited size; in the context of the Southwest Region, its strength is only considered average.

"Who are you, and why have you barged in?"

Just then, a deep, sinister voice rang out.

Immediately afterwards, an elderly man with a hunched back slowly emerged from the darkness.

Shen Shuchou didn't even glance at him, but instead said to the girl beside him, "Pick it up and kill him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark light flashed in Shen Shuchou's hand, and a dagger exuding a chilling aura was thrown to the ground.

Upon hearing this, Fifth Qinghan paused only briefly before bending down to pick up the dagger.

The moment the dagger was in her hand, a violent aura surged within the girl's heart.

"Kill him," Shen Shuchou said again.

"Your Excellency is far too arrogant. This is the territory of the Blood Fiend Demon Sect!" The old man's face instantly turned ashen.

He couldn't see Shen Shuchou's face clearly, nor could he fathom his cultivation level, but the girl beside him was truly just an ordinary mortal.

This peculiar combination managed to arrive at the Blood Fiend Demon Sect's doorstep without a sound.

Throughout, Shen Shuchou showed no intention of paying him any attention, while Fifth Qinghan gripped the dagger tightly in his hand, then took a deep breath and strode towards the old man.

At this moment, she had only one thought in her mind: as long as she killed this person, Brother Shen would be able to wake up.

Seeing the girl charging towards him, how could the old man sit idly by and wait to die? He shouted, "Since you won't speak, don't blame me for being impolite!"

After the old man finished speaking, he was about to make a move when, unexpectedly, his face was filled with terror the next moment.

He was shocked to find himself unable to move, unable even to use his internal energy.

Without a doubt, this must have been done by the man whose face was obscured.

He was a master of the Nascent Soul Realm, and the fact that he could seal his movements and true energy without him even noticing showed how terrifying this person was.

The old man immediately shouted, but the words were barely out of his mouth before they reached his ears.

The old man instantly realized that everything about him was sealed within this small space.

Moreover, the fact that there was no reaction from the sect behind him further demonstrates the terrifying nature of this person, even surpassing that of the sect leader.

"Senior, spare my life! What is your purpose?" the old man hurriedly begged Shen Shuchou for mercy.

Just then, Fifth Qinghan's petite figure arrived beside the old man.

"Miss, please spare my life. I have two sons at home. Please don't kill me."

Seeing that Shen Shuchou ignored his pleas for mercy, the old man then placed his hopes for survival on the young girl in front of him.

Fifth Qinghan paused slightly in her movements. She wanted to turn her head and look at Shen Shuchou, but then she thought of what he had promised and her brother Shen who was still unconscious in bed.

Fifth Qinghan hardened her heart and stabbed the old man fiercely with the dagger in her hand.

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh suddenly rang out in the darkness, followed by the old man's heart-wrenching screams.

Fifth Qinghan quickly pulled out the dagger, and blood instantly splattered on her body.

The old man in front of her had his face contorted in extreme pain, and the layers of wrinkles looked particularly ferocious and terrifying at that moment.

Without his true energy, he was nothing more than an ordinary old man with one foot in the grave.

Fifth Qinghan looked at the old man in front of him, whose face was contorted with pain, and couldn't help but tremble.

However, she quickly composed herself, gripped the blood-stained dagger tightly in her hand, and her gaze became unwavering once again.

Seeing that pleading for mercy was useless, a ruthless glint flashed in the old man's eyes amidst despair. He gritted his teeth and said, "Little girl, if you kill me today, you will surely suffer the consequences and die a terrible death!"

"Remember, when you are still weak, you must follow the laws of life, patiently seek opportunities, and strive for a decisive blow."

Shen Shuchou's words drifted back from behind.

Upon hearing this, Fifth Qinghan resolutely raised his dagger high, aimed it precisely at the old man's neck, and then decisively stabbed down.

The old man clutched his neck, making a "hoarse" sound. This sharp knife had completely severed all his life force, and soon his aged body collapsed.

At this moment, Fifth Qinghan slowly turned her head, and the moonlight seemed to be telepathically enveloping her.

The soft moonlight illuminated the warm blood on the girl's face and dispelled the fear in her heart.

"What if it becomes powerful?" Fifth Qinghan couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuchou slowly walked towards her, finally placing a hand gently on her shoulder and smiling faintly, "If you are powerful, you will rule the rules."
