Xia Mian's heart skipped a beat.

She had anticipated Xu Qingyan's strength, but she didn't dare to think too far, although it was obvious that this young man had many secrets.

But in the end, no one dared to think too scary. If it was really a golden elixir... then why was a boy of his age still a disciple at Shenjian Mountain? He could have become the master of a mountain, right? Why was he hiding his strength?

Xu Qingyan landed lightly on the ground and glanced at Hong Jiao.

"Being curious about these things now will not be beneficial to your survival, Master Hongshan."

Hong Jiao smiled slightly, with blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, making his smile look somewhat hideous and terrifying.

"Then what can I say that will help? I beg you to let me go, will you just stop?"

Xu Qingyan shook his head.

Hong Jiao nodded, "We are not stupid, so many things don't need to be so complicated. Whatever you say is not the way out, but the way out... is under my feet."

The moment he finished saying this, Xia Mian actually saw Hong Jiao turn around and dash in the opposite direction of Xu Qingyan.

That's...coming towards me!

There was a fierce gleam in his eyes.

The cruel and fierce gaze seemed to want to tear me apart from a distance!

Xia Mian immediately understood the purpose of this cunning man. He wanted to use him to threaten Xu Qingyan to escape!

No! Now that things have come to this, even if she doesn't care about Xu Qingyan's life or death, she can't ignore her own life or death, and she can't let this imminent target get a chance.

So she immediately wanted to dodge and didn't plan to face the enemy head-on.

But Hong Jiao's speed was faster than she thought. It was more like the potential that people could unleash when they were in extreme danger.

It was as if a shadow appeared in front of him.

Seeing his hand stretched out to her, Xia Mian immediately felt regretful. How could she be so stupid that she didn't even notice the show and thought, "How can it be so good?"

If I fall into his hands, I might be destroyed in an instant, and Hong Jiao could easily escape.

Wait.

Does Xu Qingyan really care about his own life or death? But if it wasn't for himself, what reason would he have to kill Hong Jiao?

The thoughts were complicated for a moment, but in Xia Mian's eyes, behind Hong Jiao.

The figure of the young man appeared again, and his shadow brought him an incomparable sense of honest security.

Although he didn't want to admit it...but Xu Qingyan's behavior at this moment seemed to be confused and impatient because of his own safety.

It was at this moment that Hong Jiao's hand, which was stretched out towards him, changed direction.

He immediately turned around and looked at Xu Qingyan with a ferocious face and expected eyes.

At this moment, Xia Mian immediately realized.

No! His target from the beginning was not himself, but Xu Qingyan!

He was using himself to force Xu Qingyan to get closer, and Xu Qingyan was fooled!

"careful!!"

Xia Mian was stunned and shouted uncontrollably. She herself didn't even know why she was the one reminding the other person at this moment.

"boom!!"

It seemed that because Xia Mian was in danger, Xu Qingyan, who rushed to save her regardless of everything, was unable to avoid Hong Jiao's cunning attack at this time.

It seemed that he only had time to stretch out his hands and collide with the opponent's fists.

This time Hong Jiao took a half step back.

Xu Qingyan took two steps back.

When the young man raised his head and frowned slightly to look at Hong Jiao, a smile appeared on the thin man's pale face.

"Little brother, the winner has been decided."

Xia Mian was stunned for a moment, this sentence seemed incomprehensible.

Although Xu Qingyan was caught off guard and seemed to be at a disadvantage in this round, this was not a martial arts competition, so how could the winner be decided?

Xia Mian immediately distanced herself from Xu Qingyan so that she would no longer be a burden to him.

But when she saw Xu Qingyan's expression, she felt a little uneasy.

The young man frowned, showing a solemn look that was completely different from his previous calmness.

He raised his hands slightly and saw the blood on his palms. It was from Hong Jiao.

"Blood?"

Hong Jiao laughed wildly.

"Young man, you are still a little immature. I don't know why you had to bring her here. But if she is an irrelevant person, she has no reason to come. And this is your biggest flaw. If you want to be a loyal person, you must pay the price."

Loyal and righteous?

Xu Qingyan has feelings for me? Xia Mian finds this ridiculous.

But why was he so eager to save me just now?

The girl was a little confused, but the most important thing now was not these, but...

"If you still want to kill me now, I'm sorry... My blood will burn fiercely the moment you make a move and devour you in an instant. No matter who you are, you are already in a dead end."

Xu Qingyan raised his head slightly and looked at the other person with a solemn expression.

"Just relying on this blood?"

Hong Jiao laughed loudly.

"It seems that you don't know everything. If you can guess my route, you have the strength to defeat me. But why do you think I don't have any trump cards? Blood oath... I will exchange my blood for your life. It's fair."

Xu Qingyan narrowed his eyes.

"What if I insist on killing you?"

"Hahahaha...you can give it a try. Boy, it's a pity that you were just a little bit short. In the past ten years, you are the person who has come closest to killing me, but it's a pity that you were only close. I will be seriously injured this time, but it doesn't matter, I will recover in a few years, but...it may take you another 18 years to become a brave man."

He watched the other person's actions with a little pity.

Shake your head with emotion.

"You have some scheming and even more strength. It's a pity that you are too young. What's more regrettable is that you want to kill me. If you want to serve me... maybe you will have a chance to display your talents. But since we are enemies, it's a pity. Go to hell."

There seemed to be a blazing fire burning in his eyes.

It is a kind of anger, but also a kind of thorough joy.

Veins popped out on his neck.

At the same time, he saw the young man's hand reaching out to him.

The ferocity in his eyes became even more intense.

Really ignorant of life and death...I have said it myself.

I have already said that I will not die, he is the one who will die!!

"Go to hell... Ugh!"

"puff!!"

Xia Mian widened his eyes.

I saw that thin back.

From behind the man, a hideous bloody hand pierced through his chest and back.

Bringing forth blood like a fountain.

His hands were behind his back, and in front of him was a calm and unharmed young man.

Hong Jiao's eyes suddenly turned blood red, and he looked at Xu Qingyan in astonishment.

"Why...?"

Xu Qingyan smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, but I expected you to do this."

He pulled his hand out easily.

The flood dragon in front of him collapsed like a collapsing mountain.

The skinny body raised a cloud of dust.

Xia Mian couldn't believe it.

Hong Jiao, who was regarded as a demon and a blood enemy by many demon clan members... just died like that?

He just died like that?!

Xu Qingyan touched his chest.

There is a demon pill stored there, which comes from the previous demon.

As for the effect...it's not to resist the power of blood oath.

Its greatest use is in illusion.

That is to say, Hong Jiao really thought that he had been stained with his blood and had fallen into his trap at that moment.

Actually... nothing happened.

That was the illusion Xu Qingyan wanted him to see, nothing more...

“Hua La La—”

Waterfalls, rapids, pools, splashing water.

A young man in white was squatting by the pond, washing his hands calmly.

Behind him was a figure with heroic features and a handsome temperament, and it was difficult to tell whether he was male or female.

"...Hong Jiao died just like that?"

Hibernation still feels so unreal.

When she took on this mission and collected intelligence from all sides, she thought that Hong Jiao was a very difficult target, but perhaps only such a target could live up to the family's expectations of her.

However, no matter all her intelligence and analysis of Hong Jiao, none of them were as clear as the young man's plan for the day.

It's even accurate to a terrifying degree.

Whether it was Hong Jiao's route, his thoughts, or the final trump card of the blood oath formation... he had figured it all out clearly, without any mistakes.

She originally thought that even if she and Hong Jiao were equally strong, she would have less than a 30% chance of winning, but this handsome young man named Xu Qingyan easily resolved the situation.

It is even unimaginable that Hong Jiao's cleverness backfired... Unbelievable.

Apart from shock, all that was left was deep fear and powerlessness.

Such a young boy, still so young...what can I do to fight him?

Was she smarter than him? Was she stronger and more talented than him? It seemed that she had no advantages at all. She even thought that the status of a servant was very suitable for her relationship with him... Damn it.

Damn it.

Xu Qingyan looked at the clear water, where his own clear features were reflected.

He stood up and shook his hands.

"What else? Do you think he still has a chance to come back to life?"

Xia Mian bit her lip and shook her head.

"I just think this is all... easier than I thought."

Xu Qingyan smiled as he looked at the third princess of the demon clan who was dressed as a man.

"You want me to get hurt a little more seriously, preferably to the extent that you can release the contract, right?"

Xia Mian's eyes flashed with a trace of shame.

"I'm not as bad as you think. Don't treat me as yourself."
