I am Guhuoniao, not an umbrella demon, please do not disturb me.

That's right, Bai Ling'er felt like her intelligence was being rubbed into the ground.

Catching fish?

You two went fishing dressed like this?

And another thing, is it really necessary for two people to go fishing together? Don't tell me you're both wearing makeup, you definitely are! You'll both look like big, smeared cats in the water!

"Auntie, although I didn't study for two years, I'm not stupid." Bai Ling'er was speechless.

"Anyway, it's just going out to prepare food, and we'll be back at noon."

"Mommy, Mommy, I want to go too!" Xiao Yao raised her little hand.

"Don't go today. In a couple of days, Mommy will take you out to play."

"Mmmmmmm!"

"Then let's leave it at that. Your mother and sister Zhentian are going out now. If your mother doesn't come back by noon, your brother Huang or sister Zhen will cook for you." Bai Qingyu smiled and patted the peach blossom demon's head.

As expected, my own daughter is the easiest to fool.

Bai Ling'er wanted to say something, but then thought better of it. These two were obviously on a date, so she shouldn't ruin their mood.

But why is it Shinten and not her?

She's pretty too.

And her figure is even better than Zhen Tian's...

Watching Bai Qingyu and Zhen Tian leave, Bai Ling'er puffed out her cheeks, feeling a little jealous.

These days, Bai Qingyu has been sleeping with Zhen Tian and hasn't come to her room for a long time.

If Bai Qingyu knew what the little snake was thinking, she would definitely roll her eyes. People who didn't know would think that she had done something too outrageous to Zhen Tian. And what's with this feeling of palace intrigue?

Bai Qingyu and Zhen Tian slept together and went on a date today. In fact, they hadn't done anything strange or outrageous in all this time. Today she used Zhen Tian as a pillow, and tomorrow Zhen Tian used her as a pillow. That was all.

"Auntie went out on a date," the little snake whispered.

Zhen walked by with the roasted spicy strips in her hand, and glanced at Bai Qingyu and Zhen Tian's backs from afar.

She likes staying at home, but now she suddenly thinks that maybe going out and having fun would be nice too.

"Maple leaves are most beautiful in autumn. The autumn scenery across the mountains is magnificent, and each maple leaf carries a sentiment." Bai Qingyu led Zhen Tian into the maple forest. The red maple forest in autumn is just as beautiful as the cherry blossom forest.

Maple leaves were everywhere, the mountains and fields ablaze with fiery red maple trees. Bai Qingyu didn't know why so many maple trees were planted here; perhaps it was to attract visitors and bring some foot traffic to Tongzhou. People in this era don't all live just to survive; there are still ways to relax and unwind.

Bai Qingyu deliberately chose to come in the morning to avoid the crowds. Usually, the forest is most crowded in the afternoon because everyone is on their way in the morning, since it is about 20 or 30 kilometers away from Tongzhou City.

"Shinten, how do you feel about here?"

“It’s beautiful, but I think I probably wouldn’t come here if I were alone,” Zhen Tian replied softly as she strolled along.

"why."

"Because of loneliness."

"Lonely......"

Walking side-by-side with Zhen Tian, ​​admiring the scenery, chatting about daily life and gossip, Bai Qingyu felt incredibly relaxed and happy. This tranquility made her feel that life as a demon was so wonderful and fulfilling.

Just like Zhentian said, whether it's a cherry blossom grove or a red maple grove, if you come to such a place alone, you will inevitably feel lonely while enjoying the scenery.

Unless this person has been lonely for too long and has become numb.

Unfortunately, Heaven did not intend for Bai Qingyu to enjoy this wonderful peace for too long.

Not far away, Bai Qingyu was about to visit the lake nearby when she suddenly sensed a fluctuation of magic that was steadily approaching her and Zhen Tian.

Bai Qingyu frowned and released his demonic power to sense the danger. He saw three cultivators in the distant maple forest chasing after a woman in a black dress.

The woman had black hair and red eyes, and her appearance was extremely alluring.

Especially her mouth, which resembles the legendary Kuchisake-onna (slit-mouthed woman).

"Demon?"

"Happy times are always short-lived."

Sensing this scene, Bai Qingyu felt helpless. How could it be such a coincidence that she had to witness a battle between cultivators and demons, and to make matters worse, the attack was coming towards her, the kind that she couldn't dodge.

I vaguely sensed the fluctuations of magic when I arrived, but I thought that since the distance was so far, I wouldn't be so unlucky as to fight my way here. I figured that once it was over there, it probably wouldn't affect my date.

"This demon is quite wicked."

This demon's demonic power is very strange, and what's even stranger is her appearance. She is indeed beautiful, but she gives off a strangely seductive feeling. The first word that comes to mind when you see her is definitely "a femme fatale".

"Shinten, you wait here for me. I'm going to finish off that fight over there!"

After Bai Qingyu finished speaking, she vanished from her spot and rushed towards the battlefield. Her eyes were fierce, and her demonic power surged and accumulated layer upon layer. Her thought was simple: these guys dared to interrupt her appointment, and she couldn't let them off easily.

In the maple forest, the black-clad banshee was covered in wounds.

If this continues, she will surely be killed on the spot by the three cultivators behind her.

The succubus's face showed little expression but was smiling. Her parted lips seemed to be sewn shut with fine thread, so her smile lacked beauty and only gave off a sinister feeling.

With no way to escape, the banshee suddenly turned around and, before a long sword could fly towards her, raised her hand and waved it. Hundreds of maple leaves around her were pulled by an invisible force, forming a tornado of maple leaves that swept towards the three cultivators.

"Hehehe, how does the taste of maple leaves feel?" The sirens' voices were as alluring as the songs of siren.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, a cold snort was heard, and the vortex formed by the maple leaves immediately exploded. The three cultivators formed a simple triangular formation, and colorful light shone on the earth. All the maple leaves illuminated by this colorful light lost control and fell down one after another.

The succubus was shocked, but it was too late to dodge. A stream of colorful light pierced her body precisely, expelling all her demonic power.

She collapsed to the ground, her strength rapidly fading, and her body so badly injured. She could only look up at the three gray-robed, bald cultivators in the sky who made a strange triangular hand gesture and then pushed forward. Behind them, divine light shone brightly, transforming into a colorful spear that stabbed towards her.

The succubus collapsed to the ground, utterly despairing. She clutched her skirt tightly, closed her eyes, and awaited death.

However, she only heard a buzzing sound, followed by the crisp sound of glass shattering.

A strong wind swept in, blowing the banshee's hair.

As if she caught a whiff of fragrance, the imagined death did not come. The demoness opened her eyes and saw a beautiful figure in a white dress blocking her way. With a single punch, the figure shattered the combined spell of the three cultivators. The gust of wind that had just blown was caused by the spell breaking.

The succubus paused slightly, gazing intently at the figure.

Unexpectedly, someone came to rescue her.

Bai Qingyu stood in front of the banshee, shattering the spell with a punch. She squinted at the three oddly shaped figures in the sky before realizing that they were the same three guys who had stopped her in the market a month ago.

"If you want to fight, can't you go outside? Can't you see such a beautiful view?"

Bai Qingyu hadn't even considered killing anyone; she just wanted to drive them away if possible. But after she shouted that, the three bald old men exchanged glances and actually made some kind of hand seal to continue their attack.

After the dimming of the seven-colored light behind them disappeared, the three people, muttering something, ignited again with blinding brilliance, striking Bai Qingyu with the same hand gesture they had used to kill the banshee. The seven-colored light merged in the air, its power astonishing; they were clearly trying to kill Bai Qingyu along with the demon in one strike.

"Trying to kill me?" Seeing that persuasion was ineffective and the other party even wanted to kill him as well, Bai Qingyu sneered. He no longer concealed his demonic power but instead unleashed it all. Black and white demonic power adhered to his body and mainly concentrated in his fists.

Bai Qingyu practices demonic arts, which she doesn't usually show because she always carries an umbrella. Today, she didn't bring an umbrella, so she can only use her fists.

If Shuten-dōji were here, he would definitely recognize that Bai Qingyu's punch was none other than his Demon Fist.

The black and white demonic power transformed into a crying phantom of a Guhuoniao bird, which crashed straight into the three's combined skill.

The seven-colored light was powerful, but it lost its might after encountering Bai Qingyu's punch, shattering inch by inch. The phantom of the Guhuoniao swept through the seven-colored light with unstoppable force, and then devoured the three cultivators.

Upon seeing the phantom of the Guhuoniao, the three cultivators looked as if they had seen something utterly unbelievable. Even though they could still fight back without flinching after Bai Qingyu shattered their spells with a single punch, their faces now showed expressions of extreme fear.

Bai Qingyu didn't notice this detail because, in her view, the three old bald men had been completely devoured by her demonic power.

Bai Qingyu felt that his strength was probably at the late Nascent Soul stage or even the early Divine Transformation stage of a human cultivator, and he could easily deal with three small Golden Core cultivators.

"Are you alright?"

After eliminating the three, Bai Qingyu glanced back at the alluring female demon.

The demoness was seriously injured, suffering a penetrating wound, but this didn't change Bai Qingyu's negative feelings towards her. After all, it wasn't just the three dead cultivators who interrupted her date, but also this demoness.

If this banshee were a child, she might be in a better mood.

But this female demon was not. She looked to be around sixteen years old, still a young girl. So no matter how beautiful she was, no matter how much of a femme fatale or a beauty that could topple kingdoms, Bai Qingyu was still very angry.

The succubus stared blankly at Bai Qingyu, momentarily stunned.

Is this the demon who saved her...?

"Hey."

Seeing that this guy kept staring at her, Bai Qingyu couldn't help but call out again.

What's wrong with this guy? He's not a man, and it's strange that a female demon is staring at her like that. Or is this guy trying to repay a debt of gratitude?

The succubus snapped out of her daze, her eyes lowered, revealing an indescribable mix of shyness, longing, and even a hint of fervor.

"Thank you, thank you for saving me."

When she looked up again, the look in her eyes startled Bai Qingyu.

It was difficult to discern the meaning behind that look for a moment.

"I... my name is Ghost Girl Momiji, I don't know the name of my benefactor!"

She was injured, otherwise Bai Qingyu felt that she would jump on her.

Actually, Bai Qingyu was overthinking it. Although Hongye's eyes were fervent, she was actually shy inside, well, the kind of shy that's rather intense.

"My name is Bai Qingyu. Never mind, you can take this healing medicine. I have other things to do, so I'll be going now."

Volume 1: Chapter 104 The Encounter of Shuten-dōji and Momiji

Since we're all demons, ignoring her and leaving her here is a death sentence anyway. Let's save her while we're at it; it's just a matter of a bottle of pills, and those three guys we killed must have some good stuff on them.

The ghost girl Hongye took the small porcelain bottle that Bai Qingyu handed her and held it tightly to her chest. She looked up and watched Bai Qingyu leave. She wanted to say something to stop him, but swallowed the words back. Her beautiful eyes were lowered, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

She had lived in this maple forest for over ten years and had never seen such a beautiful demon.
