As his consciousness left the sea of ​​stars, Shi Yan slowly opened his eyes.

He had indeed left the "Sword Tomb".

Shi Jiuzhou stood anxiously by her side. The girl was very curious about everything in the outside world, but because of her... she suppressed all her curiosity and turned her attention back to herself.

Shi Yan slowly got up from the ground, and Shi Jiuzhou hurriedly helped him up. Shi Yan then took the girl's hand.

She opened the mini-map.

According to the mini-map, I should be in the forest south of Nanjun City.

However... the entire forest was marked in orange.

If Shi Yan remembers correctly, orange indicates that the area is unsafe. In the game, this means that when passing through such areas, you will encounter so-called 'random mine' monsters, and being attacked by them will force you into combat.

Looking around, Shi Yan realized what had happened.

As the "Sword Tomb" shattered, the monsters within were released.

She looked up.

Sure enough, faint traces of talismans appeared in the sky.

It was exactly the same as the talismans that were placed around the market when the Shadow Demon Lord caused trouble.

This place... has also been taken over by the Starry Sky Division.

The Celestial Bureau is equivalent to one of the "Six Ministries" in the "Three Provinces and Six Ministries" system.

From large-scale invasions by evil spirits to petty theft, all are handled by the various departments under the Starry Sky Division.

Shi Yan frowned slightly. The Starry Sky Division's people have already arrived? So quickly!?

This looks like things are getting a bit complicated.

"Where's Little Pixiu?" Shi Yan gripped Shi Jiuzhou's hand tightly. Without using their swords, the two slowly headed north.

“She went to have a treat,” Shi Jiuzhou replied softly.

Shi Yan understood what Shi Jiuzhou meant.

With so many evil spirits, demons, and malevolent swords around, it's perfectly normal for the little Pixiu, a "spirit of warding off evil," to have a feast.

Closing their eyes and trying to sense the connection between themselves and the little Pixiu, Shi Yan and Shi Jiuzhou walked towards the little Pixiu.

From afar... Shi Yan could see a whole grove of trees that had been knocked down.

In the middle of a large open space, the first thing Shi Yan saw was the back of the little Pixiu.

However... the situation in the open space seems a bit delicate.

The little Pixiu crouched down slightly, looking wary, as if it were about to bristle.

Opposite the little Pixiu, facing her, was a woman who could barely stand, supporting herself with one arm.

The woman looked delicate, yet her brows exuded a heroic spirit.

His cultivation level is probably at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

She supported her right arm with her left hand, which hung limply at her sides, clearly injured.

The fabric between his fingers was soaked with blood, turning a deep crimson color. And... blood was still slowly trickling down his right hand.

Shi Yan suddenly felt a headache.

Because...the uniform that woman was wearing clearly indicated that she was a member of the Starry Sky Division.

"Who!?" The woman's voice was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, with a slight tremor at the end. As she listened to the footsteps coming from the jungle, her heart sank.

Then... she looked at the 'boy' who emerged from the jungle with a helpless expression.

"So...so beautiful..."

Part 86. That's it, this is my wife's older sister [Second Update]

"Swoosh—"

Is it a hallucination?

A faint black line appeared on Shi Yan's forehead. Why did he think he heard the sound of spitting?

Although I know I'm incredibly charming, and now I'm blessed with "natural allure,"... sister, you're being a little too frank.

“This… sister…” Shi Yan forced herself to push aside the leaves of the bushes in front of her and took Shi Jiuzhou’s small hand as they stepped out of the jungle.

The woman's eyes lit up when she heard Shi Yan's words.

Upon hearing Shi Yan's voice, the little Pixiu wagged its tail happily. Ignoring the confrontation, the little girl turned around and pounced straight into Shi Yan's arms.

"Young master, be careful!!!" The woman panicked immediately.

Ignoring the injury on her arm, she hurriedly threw a gleaming lasso with her left hand, aiming it directly at the little Pixiu.

The teacher said he knew that thing.

That is one of the universal magical artifacts of the "Starry Sky Division".

"The Binding Rope".

Generally, only those with strength or status within the "Star Celestial Bureau" have this privilege.

Although it is called the "Demon-Binding Rope," it is actually the same as the "Fierce God of the Year" mentioned by the master, and it has a restraining effect on all kinds of evil spirits and demons, and on cultivators who are full of evil energy.

Moreover, its range of attack is wider than that of the "Yearly Evil God".

Ordinary plant spirits and souls will suffer a great loss of vitality once they are bound.

Perhaps because he wasn't good with his left hand and was injured, the "Demon-Binding Rope" flew a little crooked and wobbled.

Under the woman's piercing gaze, the 'soul of a ferocious beast' lunged directly at the young master.

I don't know how those people managed to seal off the forest, yet someone still managed to break in.

This young master looks to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. His cultivation level... I can't even sense any spiritual energy from him. He's probably only at the Body Refinement Realm.

On the contrary, the female companion beside 'him' exuded a sharp and unfathomable sword aura. She was probably the 'young man's' bodyguard or older sister.

The woman could only pray that the girl could stop the 'soul of the ferocious beast'.

Then... she saw the girl just stand by and let the 'soul of a ferocious beast' pounce on Shi Yan.

In that instant, the woman's mind conjured up dozens of episodes of a family sitcom.

What kind of patriarchal clan is this? The older sister wants to create the illusion that the boy was killed by a wild beast.

"No..." She even imagined that she, as a witness to all of this, would also be murdered to silence her.

But... before she could finish speaking, she saw the terrifying 'soul of a ferocious beast' pounce directly into the 'boy's' arms.

The girl's two small, delicate legs wrapped around the boy's waist, and she rubbed against him in his arms.

so envious...

No!? What happened?!

She felt she needed to sort out her thoughts.

The "Demon-Binding Rope" arrived late at this point.

Shi Yan looked at the woman who was clearly stunned, and subconsciously reached out and grabbed the "Demon-Binding Rope".

The gleaming lasso struggled fiercely in her hands; if it had been before entering the "Sword Tomb," Shi Yan's hands might have been stabbed and bloodied.

But now—

She gripped it tightly without moving, and the light on the "Demon-Binding Rope" flickered a few times before going completely dark.

Women aren't stupid either.

Seeing this, even the most foolish person would know that the other party's cultivation level was far above their own.

Moreover, judging from the situation, the other party seems quite familiar with that 'soul of a ferocious beast'. It might just be some ancient monster that was released along with the shattering of the 'Sword Tomb'.

The woman was prepared to commit suicide by cutting her own throat.

No matter how handsome that young master is, I can't let a demon bully me.

She glanced at Shi Yan again, and suddenly felt a little hesitant.

Actually... if I had delayed a little longer, reinforcements should have arrived.

When I first encountered this 'soul of a ferocious beast,' I had already called for reinforcements, and they should be on their way now.

“Sister…” Shi Yan scooped up the little girl’s bottom and pulled her closer to him. Then he walked towards the woman from the Star Celestial Division, reached out his hand, and wanted to return the “Demon-Binding Rope”.

The woman was so nervous that she dared not move, and tremblingly took the "Demon-Binding Rope" from Shi Yan's hand.

His hands... are so smooth.

Food color also.

As a star official in the Celestial Bureau, she was much more straightforward than the average girl.

"The little Pixiu meant no harm," Shi Yan said, forcing himself to explain.

Making an enemy of the Star Celestial Bureau is not a good thing.

Throughout the Nine Provinces and Ten Lands, the Star Celestial Division is a formidable force that neither the righteous nor the demonic paths want to offend. They maintain the most basic order in the human world.

There are Star Gods who are blessed with humane fortune.

It can slay the leaders of righteous sects above, and vanquish demons and heretics below.

Fortunately, Shi Yan remembered that his reputation in the Starry Sky Division was quite high.

It's only... a few tens of thousands of points.

"A small... Pixiu?" The woman hesitated for a moment.

Nestled in Shi Yan's arms, the little Pixiu arched its back and turned its head to make a face at the woman.

Snapped--

Without changing his expression, Shi Yan lightly slapped the ground.

The little Pixiu's toes, which were wrapped around Shi Yan's waist, instantly tightened and curled up. It buried its little head in Shi Yan's arms and remained silent.
