Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

On the table lay a slightly yellowed plain silk, next to which sat an inkstone, and several writing brushes were inserted in a brush holder. A delicate pearl plum blossom grew in a porcelain pot by the window.

Li Xiuyuan stared intently at the dressing table, which was typical of young women. On it sat a bronze mirror with a brocade cover, a jewelry box with plum blossom carvings in a large red lacquer, a gold-inlaid phoenix crown, and a string of rare, upside-down prayer beads, seemingly indicating that the room's owner was no ordinary woman.

Li Xiuyuan lifted the beaded curtain made of tassels, revealing the bedroom on the other side. A light purple gauze curtain hung on the sandalwood frame bed, making the whole room appear simple yet elegant.

Li Xiuyuan said calmly, "Come here!"

As he spoke, he beckoned Xinlan to come over.

"this......."

Upon hearing this, Xinlan finally hesitated. Li Xiuyuan was sitting right next to the bed, and as a woman, she naturally felt embarrassed.

"Ok?"

Upon seeing this, Li Xiuyuan frowned slightly and glanced at Xinlan beside her. The other party had finally come over. She kept encouraging herself, thinking that Daoji was a living Buddha and holy monk, how could he do anything to harm her!

Unfortunately, Xinlan overestimated Li Xiuyuan. When he saw Xinlan coming over, he immediately pulled her into his arms. How could he not accept a woman who was offered to him?

Chapter 315 The Fox Demon Descends

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Holy Monk, what are you trying to do?"

"I am currently studying the Great Law with you. If you cultivate diligently, you will be able to achieve immortality in the future."

Xinlan, sitting on the embroidered couch, felt both ashamed and angry upon hearing these words. However, looking at Li Xiuyuan's sincere face, she inexplicably believed his words and naturally had no intention of resisting him.

After a long while, Xinlan continued her cultivation under Li Xiuyuan's guidance and gradually became compliant.

Since they were in someone else's residence, Li Xiuyuan restrained himself somewhat, making sure no one could hear the noises coming from inside.

As for Li Xiuyuan, in order to prevent anyone from discovering that he was not in the house, he had already left a clone there.

The next morning, Li Xiuyuan woke up and saw that the beauty was very different from the day before. After he guided Xinlan in her cultivation yesterday, her body had also changed, becoming more and more refined, and her blood and qi were different from before.

For the next three days, Li Xiuyuan often spent time with Xinlan. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.

Even though Xinlan knew it was wrong, she still let Li Xiuyuan succeed under his gentle advances, and she even felt a little happy. This feeling of doing something she knew was impossible was novel to her, so she naturally went with him.

Cui Junsheng was out fooling around, completely unaware that his fiancée was having an affair with someone else right in his own home.

Perhaps it was because Cui Junsheng had grown up with Xinlan since childhood and could see her every day, that he didn't find her particularly beautiful. Instead, he found other women more appealing.

Men, you know, they think any other woman they haven't tried smells good, so naturally they think she's much better than Xinlan.

But in Li Xiuyuan's mind, how could any woman outside compare to Xinlan? After all, women in brothels belonged to the world of prostitution and could not be compared with virtuous and gentle women.

Moreover, those women only care about money; if you don't have it, they'll never give you a kind look. As for Xinlan, she's gentle and virtuous, practically the perfect wife, but Li Xiuyuan has too many women.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned!

"Haha! Cui Junsheng, get out here right now! Today I'm going to rip out your heart and kill your whole family. That's your punishment for betraying me."

A voice could be heard from afar; it was the vixen approaching. After Hu Huahua's injuries improved, she immediately came to gather information. Seeing Zhao Bin and Chen Liang leave, she became even more unscrupulous.

"Oh no! A monster is coming! What are we going to do?!"

Upon hearing this, the people in the Cui household were all taken aback and lost their composure. Thinking of the monster's words, they immediately wanted to flee the Cui household.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. Hurry up and go to the main hall. There is a holy monk here. What can a mere fox spirit be afraid of?"

In the end, it was Old Madam Cui who spoke, and everyone who heard her words felt that she made a lot of sense.

After all, Chen Liang and Zhao Bin are both Li Xiuyuan's apprentices. If even the apprentices are so capable, then the master must be even more so.

So everyone rushed over quickly. Cui Junsheng was so scared that he wet himself and was the first to run over, wanting to find Li Xiuyuan. Only in front of him could he feel safe.

In an instant, everyone in the Cui family gathered in the hall. At this moment, Li Xiuyuan appeared in front of them without warning and said calmly, "Amitabha! Don't panic, everyone. With me here, all demons and monsters will have to pay the price."

As he spoke, his words gave everyone immense confidence.

Yes!

With the holy monk here, what is there to fear? If any demons dare to come, they will not have a good time.

"En!"

Cui Junsheng trembled as he answered, seemingly trying to bolster his own morale. Everyone was greatly disappointed by his disheveled appearance.

This guy is so useless. He caused all this trouble, yet he's so cowardly, hiding right behind his mother.

"In that case, we will have to trouble you, Holy Monk!"

Madam Cui bowed slightly and paid her respects to Li Xiuyuan.

Li Xiuyuan nodded slightly and replied, "Mm!"

He paused, then said, "Demon, stop playing tricks and get out here right now!"

As he spoke, he let out a loud shout, a roar like a dragon and a tiger, which went straight into Hu Huahua's ears. She felt her whole body invigorated, and her eardrums were almost shattered.

Hu Huahua thought to herself, "What a powerful monk!" But she had waited so long, she couldn't give up now. She quickly flew out and landed outside the hall.

Hu Huahua shouted angrily, "Hmph, you stinky monk, don't meddle in other people's business, or don't blame me for being impolite."

To her surprise, after two people left, another monk arrived, and her cultivation level was unfathomable.

When Li Xiuyuan saw Hu Huahua appear, he couldn't help but take a second look at her. She did look exactly like Bai Ling. She was wearing a light red blouse, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and green grass, and a thin emerald green gauze draped over her. Her shoulders were like those of a sculpted figure, her waist was slender, her skin was like solidified cream, and her aura was like a fragrant orchid.

She was charming and alluring, her beauty captivating. Watch as she moved with delicate steps, her slender waist swaying gracefully, her fair wrists revealed beneath the light gauze.

On her oval, fair, and jade-like face, a pair of dimples appeared slightly between her cheeks. A light touch of rouge made her cheeks look like a newly opened magnolia flower, white with a hint of pink.

Her long, dark, arched eyebrows looked as if they were painted, and her eyes sparkled with a captivating charm. Her alluring pupils, clear and bright, exuded a mesmerizing allure.

Upon hearing Hu Huahua's words, Li Xiuyuan coldly retorted, "I am here; how dare you be so presumptuous?"

Chapter 316 Dark Magic

Upon hearing Hu Huahua's words, Li Xiuyuan coldly retorted, "I am here; how dare you be so presumptuous?"

Having said that, his tiger-like eyes glared, and with a 'whoosh' sound, Hu Huahua couldn't help but take two steps back. What kind of look was that? His gaze, which looked gentle, seemed to contain mountains of corpses and blood, making people afraid to look directly at him.

Seeing that she was frightened by someone's gaze, Hu Huahua felt both ashamed and angry, and cursed, "You stinking monk, today I will not only kill everyone in the Cui family, but also raze your temple to the ground."

As she spoke, she uttered harsh words, wanting to punish the other party for their verbal sparring prowess, seeing their imposing presence.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan's lips curled up slightly, and he shouted, "Demon fox, stop being so arrogant! Even if the Lord of Qiankun Cave were here, I would not be afraid, let alone you."

what?

Master of Qiankun Cave.

Hu Huahua was startled and shouted, "Who exactly are you? How do you know about the Master of Qiankun Cave?"

As she spoke, she thought to herself that if what the monk said was true, then she was no match for him. She had cultivated with the Master of Qiankun Cave before and knew all too well how terrifying he was.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan replied indifferently, "What I know is beyond your imagination. Hu Huahua, you have caused great harm to people, and you even impersonated your own niece."

He paused, then said, "Watch as I reveal your true colors to everyone!"

As he spoke, his large hand reached out, forming a giant golden claw in the sky. The speed was unbelievable, and Hu Huahua had no time to dodge. Her original mask was torn off, revealing her terrifying face.

......................

Wow!

When everyone saw Hu Huahua's disgusting and terrifying face, they were all startled, especially Cui Junsheng. The thought that his monster, who could control clouds and rain, was so ugly almost made him vomit his dinner from the night before.

Hu Huahua's face was pointed, giving her a mean look. In particular, there were large black patches on her face, which were injuries caused by the Thunder God and Lightning Goddess, and were difficult to heal.

To maintain her original appearance, Hu Huahua had to eat human hearts and use fox skins to preserve her identity. She had harmed countless people, which was why Li Xiuyuan insisted on coming here personally to kill her.

Hu Huahua alone has killed countless people over the centuries. If Li Xiuyuan were to kill her, he would earn at least 100,000 merit points!

"Damn it, you stinking monk, you'd better give me your life!"

As she spoke, Hu Huahua covered her face with one hand and formed a claw with the other, unleashing her magic power. A faint red light flashed in the air as she grabbed at Li Xiuyuan.

After seeing Hu Huahua make her move, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly and said, "Get lost!"

As soon as the word "get lost" was uttered, the sound focused into a line, and the pale red magic power was directly dispersed, disappearing into nothingness in the air.

Li Xiuyuan said calmly, "You fiend, with me here today, how dare you harm people again?"

As he spoke, his imposing presence instantly became unmatched. Seeing that he had merely shouted a curse and the monster's attack had been neutralized, the crowd was greatly encouraged, thinking that with the holy monk present, they had nothing to fear.

Especially Cui Junsheng, seeing how formidable Li Xiuyuan was, actually stepped forward boldly instead of hiding behind others.

"what!"

Hu Huahua felt like she was about to go crazy with anger. In the hundreds of years she had been in human form, she had never been so embarrassed since the time she eliminated the Thunder God and the Lightning Goddess. Now that she saw Li Xiuyuan tear off his mask and expose his ugly side to everyone, how could she not be furious!

Women are naturally drawn to beauty, and Hu Huahua was no exception. In her heart, she was thinking about how to kill everyone, but Li Xiuyuan was too powerful.

Upon hearing this, Hu Huahua shouted, "Darkness Technique!"

As she spoke, she immediately unleashed her full power. A pale red demon core emerged from her mouth and hovered in mid-air. Her magical power surged forth, and a dark, eerie light shot directly toward Li Xiuyuan.

This dark technique is a cultivation method practiced by fox demons, and it is not weak at all; it is at least much stronger than Bai Ling in the original work.

Seeing that Hu Huahua had used her strongest skills, Li Xiuyuan also wanted to finish her off quickly. With that thought, he made a mysterious move with his palm and unleashed the Arhat Overturning Heaven Seal.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a giant golden hand appeared in the air, its intense light so intense that it was impossible to look directly at it. The huge golden palm-shaped light contained a swastika symbol.
