The useless second daughter of the Hua family

The wedding banquet was divided into three days. On the first day, the grand ceremony was held, and all the guests were well-known people. On the second day, the guests who came to congratulate were unknown people. On the third day, the whole city celebrated together.

The dungeon is a place with few rules for survival. It is a place where all kinds of people are mixed together and various forces are intertwined. It is said that such a clear division of levels is to avoid the chaos of the big eating the small and the strong bullying the weak, so as not to disrupt the festive atmosphere of the wedding.

Hua Miaomiao sat in the banquet hall surrounded by demons, feeling like she was about to suffocate. It was unknown whether these demons were not strong enough or did not know how to restrain their aura, making the whole venue full of smoke and making it unbearable for her. "Ladies and gentlemen, do we have to eat this meal?" Hua Miaomiao asked with a frown.

In fact, Tao Yao and the others had already noticed something unusual since they entered the venue. This strong demonic aura did not seem to be leaking out accidentally, but rather someone was deliberately guiding it to gather. Tao Yao was secretly alert in her heart, turned her head to look at Pi Fu and Xiu Zhu, and asked with concern: "Pi Fu, Xiu Zhu, do you feel any discomfort?"

Xiuzhu shook his head, indicating that he didn't feel anything strange. Pifu felt it for a while and replied, "It seems to be fine."

Tao Yao felt relieved. Since Pi Fu and Xiu Zhu did not react much, perhaps this evil aura would not have much impact on them. However, just in case, Tao Yao decided to leave first. After all, in this underground city full of unknowns, any negligence could lead to unexpected consequences.

Just as they left their seats, Pi Fu suddenly felt her legs go weak. If Bai Lin hadn't reacted quickly and held her up in time, she would have fallen to the ground. Xiu Zhu saw that something was wrong and immediately asked everyone else to return to their seats. As expected, when Pi Fu returned to her seat, the discomfort she had just felt disappeared without a trace.

"Pi Fu, are you okay?" Hua Miaomiao asked anxiously.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Pi Fu waved her hand to indicate that she was fine. She realized that she was leaning on Bai Lin's chest, so she tried to stand up, but she suddenly felt dizzy and fell back.

Bai Lin looked dissatisfied. He reached out and firmly supported Pi Fu's shoulders, saying stiffly, "It's better for you to stay still."

Pi Fu knew that she was in the wrong, so she didn't argue with him and leaned against him peacefully. Then she turned to Tao Yao and said, "It seems that there is some kind of formation outside, which is absorbing everyone's magic power."

Tao Yao frowned upon hearing this. He raised his hand and waved it. A sky curtain suddenly appeared before their eyes. The originally bright hall suddenly darkened. In the blink of an eye, the entire venue was shrouded in dark clouds. A puff of black smoke came out of the heads of the demons in the banquet hall. The black smoke seemed to be pulled by some force, gathering into a black cloud above the hall, and then being quickly absorbed by an invisible object.

"Why are we all fine?" Hua Miaomiao asked with a puzzled look.

"That thing seems to only target demons." Tao Yao said thoughtfully, "And Xiuzhu was once enlightened in the Purple Bamboo Forest. Perhaps his magic power is purer than those demons."

Hearing this, Pi Fu said somewhat unhappily: "Only targeting me! What should we do now? The group outside can't stand such a torment."

Before she finished her words, Xuan Ju came in holding the woman who looked like Ling Xi. Xuan Ju raised his hand and put away the mysterious object in the air. Everyone could see clearly that it was a small and exquisite seal. Xuan Ju carefully sealed the seal into the body of the woman in his arms. As he moved, the woman's eyes slowly opened and she instantly became alive. The group of demons whose magic power was absorbed did not notice anything unusual except for feeling a little tired.

Sensing Pi Fu's vicious gaze, Xuan Ju walked over with the woman in his arms. A trace of guilt flashed on his face, and he said softly, "I'm sorry, I accidentally hurt you just now. I had clearly calculated the range carefully, but I didn't expect you to leave early." His guilt did not come from the fact that he hurt so many people, but simply because he accidentally affected Pi Fu.

Hearing this, Pi Fu was filled with mixed emotions. She pointed at the woman in Xuan Ju's arms and asked sternly, "You actually used the Demon Sealing Seal to do such a sinister thing, is it just to prolong the life of this puppet?"

"I just borrowed some of their magic energy temporarily. It won't hurt their foundation." Xuanju said indifferently.

His indifferent attitude chilled Pi Fu's heart. She gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, "How crazy are you going to be for this? Senior Brother, if you don't turn back, there will be no way back."

The call of "Big Brother" was like a sharp sword, piercing the last line of defense in Xuanju's heart. His eyes were filled with endless sadness and helplessness, "Xiao Pifu, I have no way to retreat and I can't turn back."

Pi Fu lowered her head, not knowing what else she could do. Suddenly, she thought of something, and she smiled softly and murmured to herself, "Then let me help you!"

Before she finished speaking, Pi Fu attacked with lightning speed, rushing towards the completely unprepared woman. However, Xuan Ju reacted very quickly, and he and his men narrowly avoided Pi Fu's attack and quickly jumped back several meters.

Seeing this, Pi Fu was about to rush forward again, but she felt a strong pressure emanating from Xuanju, which instantly fixed her in place. She sighed in her heart, perhaps this is the disparity in strength between immortals and demons.

Xuan Ju lowered his head and gently stroked the face of the woman in his arms, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world.

"I know I'm such a jerk that I can't face my master anymore, and I don't expect you to understand and accept me. I just want her to stay by my side in this way. Even if it's just for a moment, I'm willing to pay any price."

Pi Fu looked at Xuan Ju in front of her with mixed feelings. She knew Xuan Ju had feelings for Ling Xi, but she didn't expect him to be so crazy.

"Wake up. If you keep going like this, you will really only get deeper and deeper..."

Before she could finish her words, Xuanju interrupted her.

"Enough! Stop talking. This is my own choice, and I will bear all the consequences. Also, this is the last time, and I don't want you to do anything to hurt her again." Xuan Ju looked at Pi Fu warningly, and when he saw the flash of hurt in her eyes, he suddenly realized that this was the first time he had been so harsh on Pi Fu.

The woman in his arms stretched out her soft hand and gently stroked his frowning brow, seemingly puzzled as to why he was angry.

Xuan Ju lowered his head and said to her lovingly, "It's okay, let's go home."

"Wait a minute." Tao Yao suddenly spoke. He took a step forward, untied Pi Fu's shackles, and then asked Xuan Ju: "You are doing this, and Xun Lie doesn't interfere at all?"

Xuan Ju showed sarcasm on his face and replied, "You think too much. This is a dungeon where people eat each other. He was the one who reminded me of this method. We have already reached a consensus. I will help him to secure the throne of the city lord, and he will be responsible for providing the nutrients for me to feed him."

"Hmph, birds of a feather!" Pi Fu cursed angrily.

"After tomorrow, you will leave. This place is not suitable for people like you." After saying that, he left with his beloved things. He took firm steps and chose a path that went against everyone else.

Tao Yao looked at his departing figure with mixed feelings. He turned to everyone and said, "Let's go."

Bai Lin stepped forward to support Pi Fu. He couldn't bear to see her being so devastated, so he comforted her, "He said it was his own choice, you can't force him."

"I understand. I won't interfere anymore. If he wants to live underground, let him do it." Pi Fu said dejectedly.

Hua Miaomiao had been sitting behind the crowd until Tao Yao helped her up, and then she gradually came to her senses. She looked at everyone with confused eyes, "So, the person Xuanju likes is Lingxi? Is the one in his arms a substitute for Lingxi?"

"Don't think too much, we can leave tomorrow." Tao Yao patted Hua Miaomiao on the shoulder.

"Okay." Hua Miaomiao was led by him obediently and stepped forward, but she could not get rid of those lonely and desperate eyes in her mind.
