While thinking hard, Lin Chuan's attention was suddenly attracted by the small card on the table.

"Yexiang Pavilion?" he muttered to himself, the sad face of Lin Wanxi emerging in his mind. She once said that her mother died in Yexiang Pavilion. It seemed that he had to go to Yexiang Pavilion tomorrow to check on the situation.

Looking back, Lin Wanxi's breathing was steady, and he wondered if she had fallen asleep peacefully. Lin Chuan shook his head, discarding his inner thoughts, and began to try to sense the primordial energy recorded in the Yin-Yang Taichu Method.

Lin Wanxi was not actually asleep. In the dim room, Lin Wanxi slowly opened her eyes and stared blankly at Lin Chuan who was meditating at the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, a rich, strange fragrance washed over her like a surging tide. Lin Wanxi felt her eyelids weigh a thousand pounds, her consciousness gradually dimming, and finally extinguishing like a candle in the wind. Lin Chuan, with his quick eyes and hands, immediately noticed the abnormality, but he didn't say a word to warn her. Instead, he chose to close his lips tightly, hold his breath, and feign unconsciousness. Rather than fumbling in the dark like a headless fly, it would be better to wait for the enemy to lose their patience and strike first.

"They have been drugged by my love potion and won't wake up for a while. Go and bring the woman on the bed back to report." A woman instructed the people around her.

"What about this man?" asked a servant-like person.

"Take them back together and hand them over to Her Majesty the Queen for her fate."

"Yes!"

Then, Lin Chuan felt that he was lifted up by two people and ran towards one direction very quickly. That direction seemed to be Yexiang Pavilion.

"People from Yexiang Pavilion? Are they targeting Lin Wanxi?" Lin Chuan became increasingly confused. Perhaps once they got there, everything would become clear.

Night Fragrance Pavilion.

"Your Majesty, we have brought the young girl here, and we also have a man in the Foundation Establishment Stage who looks like the immortal that people are talking about." The woman who released the bewitching incense was now half-kneeling in front of Ye Wei, reporting the results of the mission.

"Very good, very good. This is a reward for you." After saying that, Ye Wei took out a portion of blood food and threw it to the half-kneeling woman. The woman immediately kowtowed in gratitude, and then pounced on the blood food like a hungry wolf and started to eat it.

Ye Wei nodded in satisfaction and went to check the results.

Inside the dungeon, Lin Chuan slowly opened his eyes, only to be met with a field of white bones. As Lin Chuan had suspected, the missing were definitely more than just the county magistrate's. There was a far greater culprit behind the scenes. And the purpose of Yexiang Pavilion's arrests was clear: cannibalism.

Why does the person behind Yexiang Pavilion want to eat people? Is he practicing evil skills or...? Lin Chuan suddenly had a bolder guess, but the guess still needs to be verified.

"Thump, thump, thump." A sound of footsteps was heard, someone was coming. Lin Chuan quickly closed his eyes and continued to pretend to be unconscious.

"Huh? It's him? Am I having another hysterical attack?" The person who came was Ye Wei. She was shocked at the moment, as if she had seen a ghost.

Just kidding. The last time she met Lin Chuan, she thought she'd eaten him, but he inexplicably appeared in her bed. And now, she met him again, and he was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. How long had it been? She'd diligently cultivated for decades, just about to enter the Golden Core stage, but she'd failed the tribulation and nearly died.

Ye Wei just felt that she was probably sick, and her illness was not mild.

"We have to hurry up and take and refine the Ice Dragon Grass. We can't delay any longer." Ye Wei shifted her gaze away from Lin Chuan's face and turned to check on Lin Wanxi's condition.

"It turned out to be her. I was able to survive last time. I am so lucky." After seeing that the murderer behind the scenes was Ye Wei, Lin Chuan felt a sense of fear.

"Yes, it's exactly what the adults described, white hair, red eyes. It's strange, I've eaten so many people, but this is the first time I've seen a human like this." Ye Wei sighed, while lifting Lin Wanxi's eyelids to check the color of her pupils. After all, as long as the mission went smoothly, her good days would come.

"starry night!"

With a roar, the dark sword light flashed like lightning, rushing towards Ye Wei with a fierce momentum. Ye Wei's heart tightened, and she immediately felt an extremely sharp aura locking onto her back. The aura seemed to be able to penetrate her body, making her shudder.

Almost instantly, Ye Wei's instinctive reaction kicked in. She revealed her true form without hesitation, ready to face the fatal blow.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Wei's body underwent an astonishing transformation. Her skin quickly grew a thick layer of black hair, and her body became huge and strong, turning into a ferocious spider.

At this moment, Xingye's sword light was approaching Ye Wei. However, Ye Wei did not retreat. She swung her thick spider legs fiercely and collided head-on with Xingye's sword light.

"Bang!" There was a crisp sound of metal colliding, sparks flying everywhere. Xingye's sword light was actually blocked by Ye Wei, unable to penetrate further.

"You are indeed a demon." Events ultimately unfolded as Lin Chuan had predicted. The demons and humans harbored deep resentment, and humans would occasionally sneak into the demonic realm to slay demons and hone their skills. Demons, in turn, would infiltrate the human race to devour them. Human flesh and blood could aid the demons' rapid cultivation, hence the term "blood food."

Originally, Lin Chuan was thinking of just waiting for the right opportunity, but after hearing Ye Wei mention the Ice Dragon Grass, he could no longer hold back. This Ice Dragon Grass was the magical herb that could help Senior Sister safely survive the tribulation, so he had to get it!

"Tell me, who are you?" Ye Wei shouted. This guy wasn't even at the Foundation Establishment stage. If she hadn't been a demon with a naturally strong body, she would have suffered a great loss with her current peak Foundation Establishment cultivation.

"I spent two hundred taels of silver on you, sister. Have you forgotten?" Lin Chuan sneered. His attacks became even more fierce.

"No, you are definitely not him. Not to mention that I ate you in the beginning, even if I imagined you, your cultivation level couldn't have improved so fast!" Ye Wei roared while blocking Lin Chuan's crazy attack, her expression seemed a little crazy.

"Why do I feel like she's a little mentally unstable?" Lin Chuan fought with a strange look on his face, and did not stop attacking because of Ye Wei's abnormality. Not to mention the Ice Dragon Grass, just because she had eaten so many people, Lin Chuan would never let her go.

"It's fake, all fake! You are just my fantasy! Go to hell!" Ye Wei opened her mouth and spit out a red talisman that flew towards Lin Chuan at a rapid speed.

"Vajra is Indestructible!" Lin Chuan felt an extremely hot and violent aura rushing towards him quickly, and hurriedly used the Vajra Indestructible skill to protect himself. To be on the safe side, he even added a layer of Yin and Yang energy.

"Puff~" Even after doing this, Lin Chuan was still seriously injured. He flew away bleeding and hit Lin Wanxi who was still unconscious.

"This is... Young Master, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!" Lin Wanxi, who was woken up by the fall, was a little confused at first, but when she saw Lin Chuan lying in front of her covered in blood, she woke up in an instant and called out to Lin Chuan with tears in her eyes.

"It's fake, it's all fake, go to hell!" Ye Wei walked towards Lin Chuan with a crazy look on her face.

"You are not allowed to hurt the young master!" Lin Wanxi picked up the fallen Starry Night beside Lin Chuan and held it up to Ye Wei. Even though it was her first time seeing such a large spider, Lin Wanxi's legs were shaking with fear, but she still protected Lin Chuan tightly.

"Get out." The spider raised its legs, and Lin Wanxi's body flew to the side like a kite with a broken string.

"If that gentleman hadn't specifically asked for you, you would have died long ago, you're such an eyesore." After saying that, Ye Wei continued to walk towards Lin Chuan.

"Young Master!" Lin Wanxi felt as if all the bones in her body were falling apart, but she still slowly crawled towards Lin Chuan. Even if she couldn't save Lin Chuan, dying with Lin Chuan seemed like a good idea.

"Yin-Yang Divine Thunder!" As Ye Wei got closer and closer, a golden thunder suddenly appeared out of nowhere and struck Ye Wei straight.

"Ah!" With a scream, the huge spider collapsed to the ground and its legs began to twitch. Obviously, Ye Wei was also seriously injured after taking such a blow.

"What is this? The power of thunder tribulation? How do you have the power of thunder tribulation?" Ye Wei looked incredulous.

"Let's guess slowly in the next life." Lin Chuan called Xingye and was about to kill Ye Wei.

"You can't kill me. If you kill me, that master won't let you go," Ye Wei said in horror. There was nothing she could do; she simply couldn't move. The golden lightning entered her body, destroying it like a maggot.

"Want to live?"

"As long as you can let me go, I will serve you well for the rest of my life and let you have fun with me." Hearing that there seemed to be a chance for her to survive, Ye Wei quickly begged for mercy in a charming voice.

"Master, be careful, there's a trap! She just wanted to kill us," Lin Wanxi said anxiously. This shameless spider spirit seemed to want to snatch the Master from her. How could she tolerate this?

After hearing this, Ye Wei bit her back teeth to pieces. If she had known earlier, she would have used a little more force and knocked the girl unconscious.

"Exchange it for treasures." Lin Chuan said calmly. If she hadn't exploded and transformed, Lin Chuan might have looked at her a few more times. But after she turned into such a big spider, he would have felt uncomfortable if she changed back.

"This is a yellow-grade magic weapon, Tianxuan Realm; this is a yellow-grade weapon, Leihuo Gun..." Ye Wei took out a large number of miscellaneous low-grade magic weapons in one go.

"If that's all you have, you can go die." Lin Chuan said indifferently.

"And more, sir, don't worry. This is a mysterious magic weapon, the Sky Spider Silk. Clothes made from it are warm in winter and cool in summer. They are invulnerable to swords and guns, and immune to fire and poison." Ye Wei gritted her teeth and quickly took out a ball of golden silk thread.

"Yeah." Lin Chuan continued to look at Ye Wei with a cold look in his eyes.

"Don't kill me, I have another treasure. This... This is Ice Dragon Grass. Don't think it only has the effect of dispelling delusions, but it is a genuine magical herb!" Ye Wei shuddered at Lin Chuan's cold, snake-like gaze. She quickly took out her most valuable treasure. Afraid that Lin Chuan would dislike it, she even emphasized that it was a magical herb. After all, to those who don't need it, this Ice Dragon Grass is just a magical herb to scare people.

"It's too rubbish. Remember to collect more treasures in your next life." After accepting the Ice Dragon Grass, Lin Chuan used the Yin-Yang Sword Intentions to cut off Ye Wei's spider head with one sword.

"No..." Ye Wei believed until her death that her treasure wasn't good enough. With a deep sense of reluctance, her massive body collapsed, its body parting.

The thing is in hand, the truth has been found out, the murderer is dead, it's time to leave.

Lin Chuan went to check on Lin Wanxi's condition and found that she had only suffered some internal injuries and the problem was not serious. As Ye Wei said, they intended to keep her alive.

What on earth was it about Lin Wanxi that made her such a target? From what Ye Wei had said, there must be a bigger person behind him. As for who it was and what their purpose was, he could only report back to his master. This was no longer something he, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, could intervene in.
