Witch, don't do anything reckless!

In the darkness, Li Chuqiu did not move again.

He leaned forward slightly, his right hand gripping the hilt of the knife tightly, his whole body tense as if he were a bowstring ready to be released at any moment!

There are indeed people in the room!

Li Chuqiu glanced at a corner of the room, her eyes quickly adjusting to the darkness. Until, a familiar, vibrant red came into view.

Li Chuqiu spotted a woman!

A woman in a red dress sat on the ground, staring at him in astonishment. But quickly, that astonishment transformed into vigilance and intense killing intent.

The atmosphere in the room froze in that instant.

Neither of them spoke or moved.

Time seemed to stand still, leaving only the scene of the two facing off.

As Li Chuqiu's eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room, the figure in red became increasingly clear.

Li Chuqiu saw an extremely beautiful face.

Alluring, charming, and captivating, yet seemingly mixed with a touch of innocent naivety?

It's hard to describe this feeling.

This face seemed to possess a mysterious magic; once Li Chuqiu's gaze fell upon it, she could hardly look away.

Her willow-leaf eyebrows were curved, and her eyes, which resembled peach blossoms, were clearly full of murderous intent, yet for some reason, they did not make anyone wary of her.

The bloodstain on her thin lips and her pale, weak face made her eyes look even more pitiful, giving one the urge to hug and protect her.

A natural beauty.

This was the first word that came to Li Chuqiu's mind.

The second word is... indecent!

She doesn't look like a proper girl!

In the dead of night, severely injured, she found herself in a strange man's room, which, in any case, had nothing to do with a respectable woman.

Li Chuqiu's gaze moved with difficulty from her face to her body, noticing the bright red dress.

She's beautiful, and her looks perfectly match her personality.

The slightly tight red dress hugged her stunning figure, which rose and fell with her slightly rapid breathing, trembling and quite eye-catching.

It's clear that she's had good nutrition since childhood.

But the more Li Chuqiu looked at that red dress, the more familiar it seemed.

I don't know why?

Late at night, a woman in a red dress, seriously injured, frantically fled into his house... All these clues seemed to point in one direction.

Not long ago... that demon that appeared at Prince Jing's residence?!

When this thought crossed Li Chuqiu's mind, her heart skipped a beat.

It's going to break!

Another powerful demon?!

……

Just as Li Chuqiu was warily observing the woman in red in the room, Chu Wanqing was also warily observing the strange man at the door!

She had a rough idea that this strange man was probably the owner of the place.

She looked to be about the same age as her and was very good-looking... This was Chu Wanqing's first impression.

The unfamiliar man in sight was extremely handsome. He was not as weak as a pale-faced scholar, nor did he have that strong masculine aura. He was the kind of person who looked clean and comfortable, the kind of person who could make people feel good at first glance.

Of course, he was also the kind of heartless man, the scumbag type, who was best at deceiving women, according to his master.

From childhood, the thing her master taught her most was... "The more handsome a man is, the more likely he is to deceive, and the more dangerous he is."

Furthermore, she often brings up the deeds of the previous Holy Maiden of their fox demon clan from more than a decade ago, using them as a negative example for her to learn from.

I sternly warned her never to be love-struck!

At this moment, Li Chuqiu, whom Chu Wanqing was looking at, was the extremely dangerous man her master had described.

He broke her illusion with ease, even faster than that ice block from before!

Chu Wanqing had always been extremely confident in her illusion magic, one of the most prized skills of her fox demon clan. However, tonight's series of setbacks had gradually caused her to begin to doubt herself.

That ice block was, after all, a direct descendant of the Celestial Master's Mansion, and it was only with the Celestial Master's Mansion's sacred artifact that she broke her illusion. But this man in front of her... Chu Wanqing had no idea how he broke it. It was as if her illusion had no effect on him at all.

This made Chu Wanqing even more astonished and wary; she couldn't see through the man in front of her at all.

She couldn't even detect any spiritual energy fluctuations from the other party, yet it felt as if an invisible aura was pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

This oppressive atmosphere made Chu Wanqing increasingly uneasy.

Could the other party be a powerful being in the Upper Three Realms?

Only in this way can we explain why there is not a trace of spiritual energy fluctuation on his body.

Chu Wanqing, who had been injured by the glass tower and had just suffered a backlash from the illusion, was in her weakest state. She dared not move and continued to stand guard against the man at the door.

She didn't move either, as long as the enemy didn't move.

The two remained silent, scrutinizing each other, trying to find a flaw or clue.

After a long while, Chu Wanqing finally noticed some clues.

...She saw a hint of caution and apprehension in the eyes of the handsome man opposite her.

Is he also wary of her?

As this thought crossed her mind, Chu Wanqing seemed to understand something. Her gaze moved from Li Chuqiu's face to him, and then to the horizontal sword at his waist that was ready to be drawn at any moment.

"You're from the Heavenly Mystery Division?"

Chu Wanqing broke the long silence with her words.

His voice was hoarse and slightly weak, yet it sounded very pleasant, making people want to relax their guard.

At this moment, Li Chuqiu had almost guessed the identity of the woman in red in front of him... most likely the great demon who had drugged Deputy Commander Liu not long ago.

Li Chuqiu felt like cursing.

Normally, you might not encounter a single demon in several months in Yuhua City, but today you encountered two.

It was a powerful demon that he absolutely couldn't afford to offend!

This is unbelievable!

Li Chuqiu was unsure of the demon's strength or level, but since she had managed to escape from Liu Xu's clutches, her strength was probably no weaker than the remnant soul of the Blood Demon from earlier that day.

They are at least powerful demons in the sixth realm!

However, besides wariness, Li Chuqiu's eyes didn't show much fear; instead, they held a hint of fervor and excitement...

If a powerful demon in the middle three realms were at its peak, Li Chuqiu would run as far away as possible without any hesitation.

But whether it's the blood demon during the day or the woman in red in front of them, they all have one thing in common... they are both very weak.

She was trying her best to hide her injuries, which meant that her injuries were probably quite serious, and her strength and level would be greatly reduced as a result.

This was precisely the perfect opportunity for Li Chuqiu to take advantage of her illness and kill her.

How wonderful it would be to suck the blood of such a demon...

Li Chuqiu narrowed his eyes, quickly calculating in his mind how much chance of winning he would have if he made a move now.

Can it be a fatal blow...?

His gaze gradually sharpened, until…

Chu Wanqing, sitting opposite Li Chuqiu, seemed to sense the murderous intent in Li Chuqiu's eyes.

"snort!"

She snorted coldly.

The next second, an invisible aura swept over.

Li Chuqiu's heart skipped a beat, as if something had gripped it tightly. His expression instantly changed... Wait, was she hiding her true abilities?!

Trying to sabotage yourself?!

In an instant, the murderous intent in Li Chuqiu's eyes vanished, replaced by an innocent and naive expression.

Harmless to humans and animals.

"No, I don't know Tianxuan Si at all."

"real."

"..."
