Going against the will of heaven, summoning strange beasts, abandoning her daughter, she is addicted

“It’s okay if it doesn’t come out.” Ruan Yu knew exactly what the demon was thinking. It simply felt that as long as it resided in a person’s body and didn’t manifest, the person was still a person, not a demon, and therefore Ruan Yu couldn’t attack it.

However, this only applies to other people.

Ruan Yu doesn't care whether she's in human or demon form!

She raised her right hand high, and as she chopped down, a white blade of light pierced through Xiaoling's body!

Driven by fear, the demon within Xiaoling attempted to take control of her body before escaping.

But it was too late! The light blade was too fast; it could only evade the attack by parasitizing someone else's body!

Apart from Ruan Yu, everyone else was far away.

Left with no other choice, the mid-level demon had to burrow into Ruan Yu's body.

Little did they know, this was a trap that Ruan Yu had planned long ago.

Upon entering Ruan Yu's body, the mid-level demon became lost. Why was it pitch black inside her body? Why couldn't it see anything?

Is this really human?

The fact that a mid-level demon cannot see a monster naturally intensifies its panic. It remains fully alert, ready to respond to any sudden attack.

A bright light suddenly entered the mid-level demon's field of vision. The next moment, its entire soul began to dissolve, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

If it weren't for the lingering resentment, one might easily mistake it all for a mirage.

"Xiao Ling! Xiao Ling!" Ding Hao and his wives and concubines could not see the demon. They only saw Ruan Yu mutter a few words in a daze before attacking Xiao Ling without warning.

Then Xiaoling completely lost consciousness, and no matter how they shook her, they couldn't wake her up.

Strangely, Xiaoling had no injuries on her body.

"Master, what's wrong with Xiaoling?"

"Did she kill Xiaoling?" One of the concubines shrank back, looking at Ruan Yu who was standing still in fear.

She seemed to enter a meditative state, standing there straight with her eyes closed.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ding Hao shouted angrily, then checked Xiao Ling's breath. "She's not dead."

He then summoned the alchemist, intending to examine Ruan Yu first.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Yu opened her eyes.

The alchemist and Ding Hao were all startled: "My lord, you...you're awake?"

Ruan Yu: "I was awake all along."

Ding Hao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling uneasy. He had just been contemplating killing him. Fortunately, he hadn't made a move, otherwise he would never be standing here unharmed right now.

"Master, we can't find anything wrong with the diagnosis." After examining Xiaoling, the alchemist shook his head.

"She's fine, she'll wake up tomorrow morning." Ruan Yu glanced at his wives and concubines. "You may all leave, Ding Hao stays."

Ding Hao, who had just taken a step, stiffly turned around again.

Although the wives and concubines had left, their discontented whispers could still be heard: "Who is this woman anyway? What gives her the right to boss us around?"

"Keep your voices down, are you tired of living? Can't you see how respectfully the master treats her?"

"That's right, as long as she's not here to compete with us for our affections, who cares who she is?"

Ding Hao: "..." These stupid women, don't they know that even if they go far away, strong people can still hear them!

Couldn't we have gone a little further before discussing this?

"What do you need me to do, sir?" Coming to his senses, Ding Hao lowered his head guiltily, not daring to look Ruan Yu in the eye.

He was terrified that Ruan Yu would discover his murderous intent.

Why didn't you make a move just now?
