Chapter 139 The County Magistrate’s Daughter in the Exorcist Story 20

After doing all this, the black-robed figure did not stop, but quickly turned into a ball of black mist, preparing to escape into the distance.

Duanmu Rong just woke up from her dream at this moment. She immediately shot out several talismans that were flashing with light, trying to prevent the black-robed figure from escaping.

Unfortunately, these talismans were easily shattered by a sudden white sword light just after they flew into the air.

Then, the black fog disappeared without a trace like a ghost.

Seeing the familiar sword light, Duanmu Rong turned her head and saw a cold man in white clothes walking towards her.

Xuan Du stood straight, but his handsome face looked a little pale, even his lips were bloodless, and the hand holding the ice sword seemed to be still trembling.

He had just taken a few steps forward when he couldn't help coughing.

"Big Brother, how did you become like this?" The Shushan disciples immediately surrounded him, and even Lu Tianyu couldn't help but ask in surprise.

You should know that Xuan Du has always been the disciple with the highest cultivation level in Shushan, but now he looks sick. Not only is his inner energy in chaos, but his cultivation level seems to have regressed a lot as well.

"It's nothing, I just caught a cold recently." Xuan Du put down his hand and curled it up, pretending nothing had happened, cold and indifferent.

Seeing Xuan Du like this, Duanmu Rong felt complicated but also a little relieved. Who made him choose that woman and give up practicing?

But seeing him like this, I felt a little pain in my heart after feeling happy. I wanted to open my mouth to show my concern, but then I remembered that I had already decided to give up my feelings for him, so the words on my lips turned into questions.

"Brother, why did you break my talisman and let the monster escape?"

Xuandu looked at Duanmu Rong, whose pretty face looked much more stable, with a slightly relaxed brow and a hint of affection between a senior brother and a junior sister.

"Junior Sister Duanmu has changed a lot. I believe she will be able to achieve her wish and cultivate to become an immortal."

Suddenly hearing about his relationship, Duanmu Rong felt mixed emotions. She had hoped to get more attention from Xuandu, but now he just spoke to her in this unfamiliar tone of a senior brother and sister. How could Duanmu Rong not be sad?

But after the sadness, she had hoped in her heart that Xuandu would regret it, discover Jiang Wanwan's hypocrisy after experiencing married life with that woman, and return to Shushan with her after getting tired of her.

But now it seems that he has no hidden intentions at all. Instead, because of the woman's whispers, he seems less cold and emotional.

But this was not the Xuan Du she wanted. He should be cold and aloof, untainted by the mundane world.

An ordinary woman can get his heart, his love, and all his warmth.

How could Duanmu Rong not be jealous? The more she thought about it, the angrier and sadder she became. She couldn't help but question him with a somewhat stiff tone.

"Thank you for your kind words, Senior Brother. You haven't answered my question yet."

Before Xuan Du could answer, Lu Tianyu could not help but frown and said, "Junior sister? How could my senior brother deliberately let the demon go?"

He knew that although Duanmu Rong seemed to have become more stable in her demon-slaying career and was practicing hard, she would always look in the direction of Jiayang Town from time to time. She said she wanted to give up and let it go, but she still couldn't let it go.

But even so, we shouldn't treat Xuandu like this. After all, Xuandu was once the eldest senior brother of Shushan and he should be respected.

Xuandu didn't care about Duanmu Rong's attitude or tone. After all, she was just a former junior sister. But he still explained while coughing: "Ahem, I wanted to stop the demon, but I accidentally broke your talisman. I hope you won't blame me."

"I've been cold for so long that even my perception has decreased a lot."

His voice was cold, and his eyes were as usual with a slight sigh.

But Duanmu Rong felt that he was lying. They were cultivators with strong bodies and never got sick, let alone a cold.

Then he began to worry about Xuandu's health and tried to grab Xuandu's wrist, but he dodged it without leaving a trace.

"Junior sister, no."

Seeing that Xuan Du wouldn't even let her touch him, Duanmu Rong felt even more jealous. How come she became more pure and innocent after getting married? She couldn't even help him feel his pulse.

Xuandu and Duanmu Rong are just senior and junior brothers and sisters, so they have to be cautious about the differences between men and women. Even when his wife is not around, he has to consciously avoid contact with other women.

Seeing this, Lu Tianyu reached out and pressed on Xuandu's pulse. This time Xuandu didn't dodge.

Lu Tianyu felt that the internal Qi in his body was disordered, his blood was deficient and his expression became ugly.

"Brother, what on earth did you do? Why..."

Before Lu Tianyu could finish the last sentence, Xuan Du interrupted him, "It's just that I lost some energy and blood recently, I just need to replenish it."

Meeting Xuan Du's cold eyes, Lu Tianyu had to swallow the words in his mouth and decided to talk to him alone.

At this time, a Shushan disciple rescued a beautiful woman from the bag under the tree. After questioning, they found out that she was abducted. It was decided to send someone from the county magistrate's office to send her home tomorrow.

As it was late at night and it was not a good idea to disturb the county magistrate's mansion, Lu Tianyu did not lead the Shushan disciples and Xuandu back together but found an inn to rest.

When Xuan Du returned to the county government room and just closed the door, he turned around while holding back a cough and found Jiang Wanwan sitting on the bed with no emotion on her gentle face.

"My husband, what have you been doing?"
