The hero is killed and awakened at the beginning. He is fierce and clingy.

The locust tree demon nodded and returned the heart intact to Yun Yao.

However, a small corner of the petal was stained with a little black, which neither of them noticed.

"The process may be a little painful. If it hurts, you can scream out."

Yun Yao took out the remaining ice blood spring. She thought she would never have the chance to use it again, but she didn't expect it to be used so soon.

The locust tree demon smiled and waved his hands, "I have experienced a lot of pain, both mentally and physically. So, I am not afraid of pain."

Yun Yao nodded and said okay.

Everything that followed went very smoothly.

Apart from……

"Those ignorant creatures in Tiandao Mountain are about to break through my barrier."

Qing Kui raised his eyebrows and clicked his tongue, "It's Shen Yanqing again, ruining my plans time and again."

"That's fine with me."

Yun Yao helped the still weak Sophora japonica tree demon up and said, "I saved her life. The disciples of Tiandao Mountain cannot take her away."

"It's natural."

Qing Kui also did not have the habit of giving used chess pieces to his opponent.

"Leave first."

When the disciples of Tiandao Mountain broke through the barrier, the courtyard was already empty.

"It's still a step too late."

The monster they were looking for had left, leaving only a pool of blood and Gao Qingru who had died tragically in the blood.

The strong smell of blood and evil spirit in the air made Duan Zhi very uncomfortable, especially the evil spirit, which seemed to awaken the violent factor in her body that she had suppressed with great difficulty.

"It's not just demonic energy, it's also the breath of the demons."

Zhuang Jing has a special physique and is extremely sensitive to the breath of all demons.

This is why Duan Zhi, although she obviously didn't like Zhuang Jing following her around all the time, didn't chase him away again and again.

"Demon energy?"

Duan Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "So that demon tribe colluded with the demon tribe to kill the people!"

"Senior Sister, this human died in a very tragic way."

The disciples of Tiandao Mountain almost vomited when they saw the corpse.

Although they talk about eliminating demons and defending the way all day long, few of them have actually killed demons and fought on the battlefield, so they rarely see such bloody scenes.

Duan Zhi was so angry that veins popped up on his neck. He quickly walked to the door to report the situation inside to Shen Yanqing.

"Uncle Master, this is what happened."

"We can't just let this matter go. They dared to kill people so blatantly on human territory. They are provoking the human race and our Tiandao Mountain!"

"Isn't it just killing someone?" Zhu Yan touched his ear boredly. He was annoyed of being forced to watch extremely boring things with them all the time.

"What do you mean it's just killing a person?" Duan Zhi was already dissatisfied with Zhu Yan. He didn't take his words seriously before because he didn't care. But after this incident happened today, he was actually gloating here.

"Sure enough, he is not of my kind, so his heart must be different."

"Eh?" Zhu Yan stood up straight, "You finally said something I really like to hear."

"Since you know I'm not one of your kind, why do you always ask me to clean up your mess? You accepted my help with a clear conscience, but now you know I'm not one of your kind?"

Zhu Yan sneered, "What the hell!"

"Damn the girl of destiny."

"you!"

Duan Zhi's usual cold and aloof image disappeared at this moment. Being humiliated by Zhu Yan and questioning her identity as the girl of destiny, she felt that her entire dignity had been trampled on by him.

"Me? I said something wrong?"

Zhu Yan rolled his eyes, not wanting to get too entangled with this crazy woman.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave. Don't come to me for everything. After all, I'm not of your race. Be careful, I might kill you all one day."

Zhu Yan finally made a gesture of wiping his neck, and the weaker disciples couldn't help but feel a chill on their necks.

Shen Yanqing usually disciplined Zhu Yan for his rudeness, but today he said nothing.

This made Duan Zhi very discouraged.

"Master, I"

"Since you think what he said is wrong, prove it to him with your own ability."

A trace of fatigue flashed across Shen Yanqing's eyes. "Zhu Yan is right about one thing. You will have to stand on your own one day. I can't always be there to protect you."

"If I have to deal with even this little thing, then I really need to re-examine your qualifications as the Sword Master's successor."

"But uncle, today's incident is very serious. It not only involves the demon race, but also the devil race. This is not our..."

Shen Yanqing glanced at Duan Zhi, who felt that his eyes were cold and scary. The bright and clear-headed uncle in front of her seemed to have suddenly become abnormal again. She seemed to have returned to the day when the witch died.

"Uncle Master, I understand. I will handle this matter myself."

Shen Yanqing nodded, retracted his gaze, and flew away on his sword.

"Zhizhi" Zhuang Jing wanted to comfort Duan Zhi, but Duan Zhi slapped away the hand that was about to touch her shoulder.

"Pity me?"

"That was not what I meant."

"I don't need anyone's pity!" Duan Zhi casually wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "I am the girl of destiny predicted by the ancestors of Tiandao Mountain. I am the next Sword Master of Tiandao Mountain. How could I believe the nonsense of that demon monkey?"

"Even if my uncle doesn't help me, I can find them with my own abilities and make them pay for the crimes they committed!"

All demons should be damned!

After Duan Zhi finished speaking, he asked someone to take Gao Qingru's body away, and then left calmly.

Zhuang Jing sighed. He always felt that Duan Zhi was different.

The once cold and aloof little girl, the girl whose only goal was to improve her sword skills, seemed to be getting farther and farther away.

"The girl of destiny..."

Is it this title that changed your heart?

Yun Yao and Qing Kui sent the locust tree demon to the border of the demon tribe.

"It is safest for you to return to a place where you know your roots and your inner world."

The locust tree demon nodded vigorously, and knelt down the next second, "Thank you very much, benefactor."

"You have yourself to thank."

Yun Yao would not flatter herself by helping the locust tree demon. "Just live your own life well and practice well in the future. Maybe you can break through your thousand-year barrier without relying on anyone."

"I see."

The locust tree demon turned around and returned to the demon clan, walked a few steps and turned back, as if he wanted to engrave Yun Yao's face deeply in his mind.

But how could the naive little demon know that the face on Yun Yao’s face was fake?

"Where are you going next, Your Highness?"

Qing Kuida had a sense of "I'm going to follow you".

"squeak squeak squeak"

Before Yun Yao could say anything, the system couldn't help but get angry.

"We can't let him follow us!"

"He tried to pull my hair out!"

"He's annoying to look at!"

Yun Yao couldn't help laughing, and patted the system's head to comfort it, "I like to be alone, so Lord Qingkui, just go back to wherever you need to go, and don't ask me where I'm going."
