Yu Yan clenched her fists, her nails digging deeply into the flesh, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

It's really funny that she has been pampering this fake Mingzhu for so many days.

A huge hatred swept over her, and she jumped off the cliff in despair in her previous life. The feeling of suffocation surged up like a tide. She looked coldly at Liu Xiaomo who was still talking to the fortune teller.

Liu Xiaomo shuddered and looked around, but didn't find anything strange, so she continued chatting with the old man.

Li Chengyi and Ji Junhao waited for Liu Xiaomo in the inn for a long time. Seeing that she had not come back yet, they were about to go look for her when they saw a woman bringing Liu Xiaomo in.

The two were still a little surprised, but then they heard the cold and beautiful middle-aged woman speak, "You are my daughter's friends, right? Thank you for your care over the past few days. This is a thank-you gift from Demon Shadow Peak."

Several large boxes of treasures were carried in, but the two men were used to seeing these things, so they didn't pay much attention to them.

Li Chengyi did not show it on his face, but he was actually shocked inside. The confidant sent by his father told him to find a chance to sneak into the Demon Shadow Peak and find out the situation inside. Then they could join forces with other famous and upright sects to wipe out this evil cult.

He was thinking about how to find a chance to sneak in, but he didn't expect that the leader of the Demon Cult was right in front of him. He was sure he could not defeat her because her internal energy was much stronger than his.

He just didn't expect that Liu Xiaomo, who had always been by his side, would be the daughter of this evil cult witch. How could he face her?

Li Chengyi didn't want to vent his anger on this lively and playful girl, but the evil witch was extremely evil and would be a disaster sooner or later if she was kept. Liu Xiaomo had told him before that she had no father or mother, and she must have been recognized by the witch.

Li Chengyi believed in Liu Xiaomo's character and knew that she would not be like that mother, so he would not harm Liu Xiaomo.

Ji Junhao didn’t think so much. After staying in the capital for a long time, he also wanted to experience the atmosphere of the world.

They concealed their identities and followed Liu Xiaomo to Lonely Shadow Peak, where they were given a very generous reception upon arrival.

Most of the people in Demon Shadow Peak are women, and most of them are normal people. However, there is a small number of them who are either physically disabled or mentally ill.

As if he had guessed what the others were thinking, the left protector spoke, "These people all suffered misfortune, and were brought back to the sect by our leader to be raised and taught some skills, so that they will not die if they leave Demon Shadow Peak one day."

Li Chengyi had a complicated expression. Wasn't this evil woman evil? Why would she help the old, weak and disabled? This was not what his father said.

Late at night, Li Chengyi was about to put on his nightgown and explore the terrain and layout of Demon Shadow Peak, but Liu Xiaomo came instead.

"Brother Li." Liu Xiaomo pointed her finger at me, "Are you unhappy because I am the daughter of the leader of the Demon Cult?"

She had been with Li Chengyi for a long time and knew how much he hated evil and the evil witches.

Li Chengyi's mother used to be Yu Yan's good friend. When she saw that Yu Yan had gone astray after her entire family was wiped out, she came to Demon Shadow Peak alone to persuade her to return to the right path.

Who would have thought that after he returned, he was distracted and had a big fight with his father, and died of weakness a few days later.

Her father sadly told her that her mother was poisoned to death by a witch from the Demon Cult. Li Chengyi hated the Demon Cult from then on and wanted to destroy it to avenge his mother.

"It's getting late. You should go to bed early and stop thinking so much." Li Chengyi looked around and said.

Liu Xiaomo knew that he must mind. "Actually, I can't stand what my mother did. Brother Li, I can help you destroy the Demon Cult. Although she is my mother, I really can't bear to see the Demon Cult do evil and do whatever it wants."

"Xiaomo..." Li Chengyi was deeply moved by the woman in front of him.

"I will help you." Liu Xiaomo's eyes were firm. Before she came here, she had watched many TV dramas about evil cults harming people. Her inner "justice" drove her. As for the evil cult witch, it was a joke. She was not her mother.

Liu Xiaomo had no psychological burden at all.

Li Chengyi lived in Demon Shadow Peak for several weeks. He explored intentionally or unintentionally and figured out the layout of the Demon Cult.

He had written it down one by one and sent it to his father by carrier pigeon.

His father told him not to act rashly, and that he would be able to lead a group of upright people here in three days at most.

Attached to the letter was also Bone-Dissolving Powder, a medicine that all martial artists fear. Once taken, one's internal strength will slowly disappear over a period of time.

Such a powerful medicine is extremely troublesome to make. Even as the leader of the martial arts world, he only has two or three packets. Now that he is using it to deal with the evil witch of the cult, it is worth it.

But there is a problem. Yu Yan is not a fool. She is very cautious about what she eats and there are people who test poisons. How can she be expected to take the Bone-Dissolving Powder willingly?

Li Chengyi thought of Liu Xiaomo.

The chicken soup exudes an enticing flavor and aroma.

Liu Xiaomo was holding the sky-blue porcelain bowl, but her heart was beating fast. She thought, I shouldn’t be discovered, right?

"Mom, this is the chicken soup that your daughter made for you. Please try it."

"You're thoughtful. Just leave it there." Yu Yan glanced at her indifferently.

However, Liu Xiaomo did not intend to put it down. She had to watch Yu Yan finish drinking it, otherwise how could she complete the task assigned by Brother Li?

"Mom, drink it while it's hot. It won't taste good if it gets cold." Liu Xiaomo scooped a spoonful and handed it to Yu Yan's mouth.

"It's okay. You're not in good health. You should drink the chicken soup yourself to replenish your body." Yu Yan looked at Liu Xiaomo lovingly.

Liu Xiaomo didn't want to drink the chicken soup with added ingredients. Seeing that Yu Yan didn't drink it, she was so anxious that her eyes lit up and she suddenly thought of something. "How about this, mother, I'll drink half and you drink half, and we can replenish our energy together."

Anyway, she has no internal strength, so it won't be a big deal if she drinks it.

"Okay." Although Yu Yan smiled, there was no expression in her eyes.

Liu Xiaomo gritted her teeth and drank half a bowl in one breath, "Mom, you drink it."

Yu Yan took it and drank the bowl of chicken soup. When Liu Xiaomo saw her finish drinking it, she immediately smiled and said, "Mom, I'm leaving now. I won't disturb you from handling the affairs of the church."

She walked in a hurry and didn't notice the cold look Yu Yan gave her.

"Brother Li! Brother Li!" Liu Xiaomo came to Li Chengyi and winked playfully, "Done."

"As expected, it's Xiaomo." Li Chengyi smiled dotingly.

My father should be here tomorrow, and then I can avenge my mother.

It rained last night and there was a little fog in the morning, shrouding the Demon Shadow Peak in white fog.

No one in the peak cared. The mornings at Demon Shadow Peak had always been like this, with white mist and dew, a fresh mountain breeze, and a hint of moisture in the air.

But today, the mountain was crowded with people, and they were all shouting slogans to fight against the evil witch.
