"who?"

Zhang Sheng shouted loudly to bolster his courage, and the sobbing stopped completely, as if he had been frightened.

The woman raised her head, and by the moonlight, Zhang Sheng saw her tear-streaked face and was instantly mesmerized.

What a lovely girl!

"Young lady, why are you crying here all alone so late at night?"

Upon seeing the beautiful woman, Zhang Sheng naturally became bolder. As he approached, he discovered that the woman's clothes were disheveled, with several tears revealing large areas of her body. Some of her clothing was also partially hidden beneath the tattered fabric, which only added to her allure.

Zhang Sheng's mouth went dry, and his mind wandered. With such a beautiful woman in the middle of nowhere, even if he did something, no one would know.

When the woman saw Zhang Sheng, she said pitifully, "I originally lived in the city, but today I went to the countryside to visit relatives. I didn't expect to encounter a bandit on my way home and almost suffered humiliation."

Although she had narrowly escaped death, she had twisted both legs and could no longer walk after running here. Thinking of what had happened that day, she was overcome with grief and did not expect to frighten the young master…

Zhang Sheng was blinded by lust and no longer cared about how such a frail woman could escape from the clutches of a strongman; he was only focused on what looked good.

Although Zhang Sheng had evil thoughts, he did not dare to take advantage of the situation and force himself on her. Instead, he said ingratiatingly, "Don't be afraid, young lady. Since you have met me, I can't ignore this matter. My home is in a village not far away. Why don't I carry you home first and then take you to the city tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, I have parents at home; they would never do anything to harm you."

Zhang Sheng was also very excited. He had saved such a beautiful woman, and perhaps they could start a wonderful relationship in the future!

"Thank you very much, young master! I have no way to repay you, but I will definitely repay you handsomely in the future."

No need for a big thank you, just repay me with your body.

With these thoughts in mind, Zhang Sheng bent down, picked up the woman, and headed towards his home.

But for some reason, a place that usually takes only fifteen minutes to walk to has taken almost half an hour to reach today, and I still haven't seen a glimpse of my home.

The girl on his body, however, was getting heavier and heavier.

"Young master, are you tired? Why don't you stop and rest for a while? Am I quite heavy?"

The girl behind him spoke gently, seemingly a little guilty. Hearing this, Zhang Sheng was too embarrassed to say he couldn't do it, so he immediately perked up and said, "I'm not tired, we'll be there soon."

"You're about to reach the gates of hell."

A clear, melodious voice suddenly rang out behind him, and for some inexplicable reason, Zhang Sheng felt as if a layer of mist had been broken through in front of him.

Then, he felt a lightness in his body, and the girl behind him had disappeared without a trace.

"Hey, girl?"

"Is this what you're looking for?"

Zhang Sheng then noticed a handsome man standing in front of him, holding a rabbit in his hand. The rabbit was struggling, but no matter what it did, it couldn't escape the man's grasp.

"This is……"

Zhang Sheng was completely bewildered, not understanding what was going on.

The handsome man was none other than Lin Yi. He randomly picked a direction to look for the monster and happened to see a plump rabbit perched on a man's shoulder.

This rabbit spirit has only been cultivating for fifty years and hasn't even taken human form yet. It must have used some kind of illusion to make that man carry it on his back.

The difference in combat power among different races of demons is truly enormous.

The tiger demon in Qinghe Village had only fifty years of cultivation, and Lin Yi, who already had sixty years of cultivation, would have had little chance of winning against it.

This rabbit has been cultivating for fifty years, and only a normal adult male is needed to subdue it.

This man was likely tricked because he was in a bad state and had evil thoughts, which led him to be seduced by the drugs.

“If I had come any later, you would have been eaten by this rabbit. Look at the yellowish smudges in your eyes, you were obviously thinking about lewd things. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been outsmarted by this little rabbit.”

Lin Yi, holding the rabbit and watching its legs kicking wildly, couldn't help but remark, "Look, it's a male rabbit!"

"Immortal, I am truly female... I did not intend to kill him, I only wanted to absorb a little bit of his essence."

To Zhang Sheng's astonishment, the rabbit began to speak human language.

He could easily understand that he had encountered a monster and been saved by a fairy.

Recalling his previous experience, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and the words of gratitude he wanted to express to Lin Yi got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.

Lin Yi knew he was frightened and was momentarily speechless.

He didn't care about others' gratitude, but he still cast a calming rune to soothe Zhang Sheng's mind.

"No need for thanks. Go home and get some rest. Do good deeds and avoid lustful thoughts, and this kind of thing won't happen to you again."

After saying that, Lin Yi picked up the rabbit and flew to the next place with demonic energy. On the way, Lin Yi also began to interrogate the white rabbit.

"I have a few questions for you. Answer them well, and I'll let you go. If you don't answer them well, I know ten ways to eat a rabbit..."

Spicy rabbit head, braised rabbit meat, roasted rabbit...

This rabbit has already become a spirit, so it must taste amazing; even the Demon-Slaying Manual has given it its approval.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, the rabbit spirit was terrified and dared not struggle any longer. It could only obediently reply, "Immortal, please give your orders. This humble demon will answer all your questions without reservation."

"I saw you committing violence outside the city, why didn't you go inside the city?"

"Immortal...you must be joking, right? How could a little monster like me possibly enter the city?"

"This little demon doesn't usually harm people, but I always hear people say that a man's essence is much tastier than grass, so this is the first time I've done it. Immortal, you must forgive me!"

Hehe, first time?

Lin Yi had seen too many lies like this. When someone gets caught for committing a crime, it's always the first time. The Demon-Slaying Manual has already given the answer: this rabbit has already experienced this several times.

However, she has indeed never killed anyone, but that doesn't necessarily mean she's kind-hearted. It's more likely that she lacked experience in the past. If Lin Yi hadn't stopped her, Zhang Sheng might have died here.

If a mortal's vital energy is drained by a spirit, they may suffer a serious illness, or even become unable to recover.

While it may not necessarily lead to death, for impoverished people, being sick is more terrifying than losing their lives.

Therefore, in Lin Yi's view, the rabbit's behavior fell into the category of whether or not it could be killed.

But seeing that this rabbit is not behaving properly, it's better to kill it to prevent it from harming people in the future.

Lin Yi unleashed a sword strike, cleanly and decisively slaying the rabbit.

The ingredients were naturally preserved and placed in a cloud bag for refrigeration.

Next, Lin Yi went to find the next lucky person.

The demonic energy locked onto by his Heavenly Eye had nowhere to escape, but the demons closest to the city were not particularly powerful.

Lin Yi asked several demons, and the newly added ingredients in his cloud bag were enough to make a feast, before finally getting a clue from a three-hundred-year-old eagle demon.

“The city is the territory of the fox spirits. If we lesser demons were to enter the city and cause trouble, we would be beaten to death. Although I can fly, I dare not provoke the fox clan. In the entire Yuzhang Prefecture, no one dares to be an enemy of the fox clan.”

Fox clan?

Good heavens, have I stirred up trouble at Yan Qingqiu's lair?

Lin Yi didn't plan to investigate this matter any further. He didn't have the strength right now, and the hidden things involved weren't particularly urgent.

It's not too late to come when your cultivation surpasses that of Yan Qingqiu.

However, the reason for this matter can be left uninvestigated, but the troublemakers outside, Lin Yi, will not be let off the hook.

After easily dealing with the eagle demon, Lin Yi began a large-scale demon-slaying campaign around Yuzhang County.

Poor Bai Lianxian waited at the inn all night, but Lin Yi didn't return until dawn.

"Is this guy really that good at leaving his young wife alone at home?"

Bai Lianxian had been inquiring about Lin Yi quite a bit during this time, and she had naturally found out about Lin Yi's previous act of leaving He Dong alone in an empty room.

If it weren't for the severe punishment she received for her provocation last time, she would have suspected that Lin Yi had something wrong with him.

A lack of initiative indicates a problem with one's mindset.

As the sun rose, Bai Lianxian began to worry about Lin Yi's safety. Fortunately, Lin Yi returned not long after the sun came out.

"Is this what you meant by coming back soon?"

Bai Lianxian looked resentful, her face filled with the bitterness of a woman whose desires were unfulfilled.

Lin Yi gave an awkward smile and said, "I bought you breakfast..."

"Humph!"

Bai Lianxian was furious with Lin Yi. She snorted and lay back down on the bed, facing the wall with her back to Lin Yi.

Helpless, Lin Yi could only go over and hug her from behind.

He was extremely busy that night. Even though each demon could be dealt with in one go, he had to run all over the four directions, which took a lot of effort.

But the gains were also quite gratifying; he jumped from 3,900 years of cultivation to 4,300 years of cultivation.

If I keep grinding like this, I'll be facing another tribulation tomorrow.

Unfortunately, there weren't enough monsters to kill for him.

He ran around the city of Yuzhang, covering an area of ​​about a hundred miles, and killed any monsters that had taken lives.

Finding so many monsters again next time won't be so easy.

Now, he can begin hunting down powerful demons and monsters again, and is about to undergo his third tribulation.

Bai Lianxian had no idea that Lin Yi had become so powerful after just one trip. When she felt Lin Yi hug her, she gave a haughty snort, but started to wiggle her waist and rub against Lin Yi's body.

Lin Yi was stunned on the spot; this snake demon was too powerful...

In the other house, Xiao Se also finished his night of cultivation.

At this moment, eight talismans had already been engraved on her spirit altar.

Now, she is a second-grade cultivator.

Because she was going to meet the mysterious demon king from last night, she also moderately improved her cultivation level, so that if things really turned sour, her chances of survival would be greater.

Not only that, she also secretly honed her innate supernatural power.

If she were to fight the Demon King, she wouldn't be defeated instantly; she would at least have some means to defeat him.

Awakening refreshed from his meditation, Xiao Se casually picked up the cat and petted it a couple of times.

"Have you rested enough? We can prepare to go to Green Mountain. Let's go elsewhere first and see if we can find out any information about the Demon King."
