Water Reflects Peach Blossoms

"Last time you wanted to kill me, this time you stepped on my foot." Li Lun chuckled: "You always surprise people."

"only……"

Facing Nanzhi's angry eyes, Li Lun curled his lips in a good mood: "You didn't step on my foot, but on your friend's foot."

Nanzhi: "..."

Yes, Li Lun possessed Miss Qi, and in her eyes, Li Lun was actually Miss Qi.

Nanzhi abruptly retracted her foot: "What is your purpose in possessing Miss Qi?!"

Nanzhi retracted her foot, and Li Lun let go of her wrist, took a step back, and handed the book in his hand to her: "Don't you want to take this book?"

Nanzhi took the book, but Lilun didn't let go.

Nanzhi looked at Li Lun who was looking at her with a deep smile on his face.

Li Lun raised his eyebrows slightly: "I remember that you humans always say thank you when you receive help."

Nanzhi let go and said to him, "Put the book back."

Although he didn't quite understand what she wanted to do, Li Lun still did as she said and put the book back to its original place on the bookshelf.

Nanzhi brought a small stool over, stood on it and took the book down. In fact, when she took the book with her back to Li Lun, she used the cover of her body to take out a large dose of Huanling Powder from her purse and held it in her palm.

Getting down from the stool, Nanzhi looked at Lilun: "I don't need your help."

Li Lun was not angry. Instead, he felt that the woman in front of him was so cute that it made him feel itchy. However, it was okay to scare her a little.

He wanted to scare Nanzhi, but he knew he could eat people. Li Lun lowered his head, and just as he raised his head to make a sinister and frightening expression, he was sprayed with Huanling Powder in the face.

He took a few breaths without warning, and although he quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, it was too late.

Seeing Li Lun staggering a few times and falling to the ground, Nanzhi kicked Li Lun's calf cautiously. After confirming that he was indeed unconscious, he hurried out!

Huanling Powder couldn't last long, so she went to get the demon-binding rope and tie up Li Lun.

Just as he ran to the gate, a sudden force of gravity hit him from behind. Nanzhi was grabbed by the arm and forced to turn around, and then he was pressed against the door panel!

"How come you..." Nanzhi was horrified: "Why doesn't Huanling Powder work on you?!"

Pulling her hand away from Nanzhi's head, Li Lun looked down at Nanzhi, who was forced to look up at her, and explained in a low voice, "Huanling Powder...has no effect on a ten-thousand-year-old demon like me."

In fact, Li Lun had been on guard since he was attacked by Wen Xiao's Huanling Powder last time.

"Impossible!" Nanzhi retorted, "The book says that Huanling Powder is effective against any demon. You must have taken some precautions in advance."

Li Lun said, "Practice makes perfect. You've read so many books, but they're not as clear as what I've learned so far."

"Do you know Wu Yan?" he asked.

Nanzhi nodded.

Li Lun: "I killed him."

Nanzhi: "..."

"It's you?" Nanzhi looked at Li Lun with a cold look in his eyes amidst his anger.

Nanzhi didn't show the happiness Li Lun had imagined. He frowned in confusion and his voice became deeper: "Are you unhappy?"

Wu Yan had tried many times to introduce her to King Xiang as a concubine. Now that he had killed Wu Yan, why did she look so angry?

Li Lun didn't understand.

This was the first time he wanted to make a human woman happy, but... he seemed to have messed it up...

Not wanting to listen to Nanzhi's questioning, Li Lun let go of her hand, took several steps back, turned around and walked towards the stairs, escaping in a rather embarrassed manner.

Nanzhi followed him and said, "It was because you killed Wu Yan that our demon hunting team only had one day left to capture Ran Yi!"

As she spoke, she grabbed Li Lun's sleeve and tried to pull him back.

The moment he felt the weight on his sleeve, Li Lun stopped, but his handsome face, with his back to Nanzhi, was full of frustration and anger, and a glimmer of tears flashed in his eyes.

His eyelashes trembled slightly, and he lowered his eyes and turned to look at Nanzhi behind him: "So, this is why you are angry?"

Does she value those people in the demon-hunting team more than herself?

Li Lun suddenly became a little angry.

Like Zhao Yuanzhou, Shen Nanzhi is also a stubborn person who likes to put those unimportant people ahead of himself!

Li Lun seems sad?

Nanzhi was stunned when she saw the hurt flash across Li Lun's eyes. For some reason, she said what was in her heart: "I'm also angry because you killed someone."

Li Lun was puzzled: "Wu Yan has shown ill intentions towards you time and time again."

Not only that, he even set a trap to kill Zhao Yuanzhou!

Nanzhi let go of Li Lun's sleeve and stood up straight. "Human affairs are naturally governed by laws. Killing people out of anger is wrong. Such people should die under the law, not dirty your own hands."

"It's not worth it to kill him and bear the sin of murder."

After saying this, Nanzhi was also stunned.

This was her true thought, but because Li Lun stood on the opposite side of the demon-hunting team, she was actually hesitant about whether to tell him.

I didn’t expect… to say it out loud.

When Li Lun heard such words for the first time, his eyes trembled uncontrollably. His cold and silent heart seemed to be hit hard by something, breaking open the solid outer shell that did not let in a single ray of light.

"So what do you want to do with me?" he asked.

Nanzhi said, "The affairs of the Great Wilderness are under the jurisdiction of the White Ze Goddess. You will be judged by Sister Wen Xiao."

"Goddess Bai Ze?" Li Lun sneered, his eyes filled with disdain: "She doesn't deserve it!"

Nanzhi was also getting angry: "Sister Wen Xiao is the White Ze Goddess, chosen by the White Ze Order, and has the responsibility to control all the monsters in the Great Wilderness. How can she not be worthy?"

Whenever Shen Nanzhi was mentioned as a member of the demon hunting team, she would start an argument with him. Li Lun simply turned his face away and said sarcastically, "If she has the ability, she can judge me herself."

Don't let Shen Nanzhi take the lead.

Li Lun thought, "Why did you run away after you knocked me out with Huanling Powder? Were you afraid of me?"

Nanzhi shook her head and told the truth: "I want to find a demon-binding rope to tie you up."

She was a little embarrassed. It was a bit presumptuous of her to say such things in front of Li Lun.

Facing a powerful demon like Li Lun, she could only delay time as much as possible and try to keep him in the Scroll Collection Hall, because no one in the Demon Hunting Bureau could be his opponent, and if they surrounded him, he would be killed in return.

Realizing that the time was almost up, Li Lun grabbed Nanzhi's hand and said, "You don't have to grab me. I'll take you to see a good show."

"What do you want to do now?" Nanzhi immediately became alert!

"Don't you think Zhao Yuanzhou, Wen Xiao, and the others are amazing?" Li Lun raised a sly smile and said darkly, "I'll show you just how overconfident they are."

Nanzhi was about to struggle when Li Lun pointed his fingers at her shoulders.

In an instant, Nanzhi was unable to move or struggle. She could only watch as he picked her up and left the Demon Hunting Bureau.
