The next second, Tang Doudou teleported to the side of the Moonflower Palace Master, took her hand, and her eyes were filled with tears. "You abandoned me because of her?"

People around immediately turned to look.

The Palace Master of Moonflower Palace quickly shook off Tang Doudou's hand. This person had lost their mind again. "Don't come any closer! Stay away from me!"

Qian Fan, who was standing nearby, immediately brightened up when he saw it. "Here you go, this thing is for you!"

Unfortunately, I couldn't pick it off even after trying for a long time.

"Forget it, let go of the sand you can't hold onto. I wish you both a son soon and a long and happy life together." Tang Doudou clutched her chest, looking heartbroken.

"This is a curse, it doesn't look like a blessing to me!" Dongfang Xu said thoughtfully.

"I have absolutely nothing to do with you, so stop bothering me!" the Palace Master of Yuehua Palace said helplessly.

"A woman's mouth is a deceitful devil. When we were together, she called me 'darling,' but now she tells me to stay away."

"Your acting skills are impressive; it's a waste of your talent if you're not an actor!" the system praised repeatedly.

Tang Doudou immediately lost her composure, "Are you here to cause trouble? You've ruined all the emotions I've worked so hard to build up!"

The way people looked at the three of them changed, and they began to whisper among themselves.

Qianfan felt that he had never been so humiliated before!

Fortunately, not many people recognize me, so I didn't lose face back home!

"Tang Doudou, if you keep doing this, don't blame me for being impolite!" Yuehua Palace realized that Tang Doudou was no longer able to control her. With that, she waved her hand, and Tang Doudou quickly dodged away.

Just as everyone was watching the spectacle, they saw the Huangfu family arrive late.

Zhou Hu and Zhao Long, who were originally arrogant and disdainful of others, immediately wilted upon seeing Qian Fan.

"So you two are enjoying yourselves here!" Qianfan vented all her anger on the two of them. With a wave of her hand, two sharp black spiritual energies rushed towards them.

The two men's expressions changed; they hadn't expected Qian Fan to be so rude to them, attacking them in front of so many people.

The two quickly resisted and blocked the spiritual energy.

"You two are really something! I'll report this to the Demon Lord as soon as I get back!" Qian Fan said resentfully.

"Who is she?" Huangfu Hao asked in confusion.

"Just a senior sister!" Zhou Hu said without changing his expression.

During this period, they experienced the benefits of strength, and anyone who ruined it became their enemy.

Fortunately, the barrier around Kyushu City began to loosen at this moment, and everyone's attention fell back on the barrier.

"At this very moment!" Dongfang Xu shouted, and everyone quickly gathered their spiritual power and rushed towards the barrier.

Four doors instantly appeared on the barrier, and everyone rushed inside.

Tang Doudou felt a blur before her eyes, and saw a group of people kneeling on the ground in front of her. "Welcome back, warrior!"

"Everyone, stand up!" Dongfang Xu said loudly.

"Thank you, brave warrior!" Everyone stood up and cheered.

The houses on both sides look ordinary, and there are many small shops, but they only sell ordinary things.

"What exactly is going on?" Tang Doudou asked Dongfang Xu in confusion.

"This is Kyushu City. The people here cannot cultivate, so they can only rely on outsiders for protection. At regular intervals, people from other cultivation worlds will pass through the barrier to eliminate demonic beasts for them!"

"Then what if we leave?" Tang Doudou asked, puzzled.

“After the cultivators leave, the barrier of Kyushu City can protect them until the next cultivators arrive,” Dongfang Xu explained.

"What if no one comes in?"

"I don't know about that!" Dongfang Xu said. "However, it's a win-win situation for cultivators, and no one should refuse it."

Tang Doudou nodded.

This was the first time she had ever encountered such a strange place.

"System, are you here?"

"Something's strange here!" the system said. "There's so much spiritual energy in the air, why don't the people here have any cultivation? They don't even have spiritual roots."

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

The five entered the room prepared for them in town. The room was spacious and bright, and the decorations were elegant and beautiful.

The five of them then settled into the room.

“Now that the barrier has disappeared, the demonic beasts could come at any time.” Dongfang Xu gathered everyone together. “Starting today, we will take turns on duty. I’ll be on the first day, you two on the first day, tomorrow and the day after, Tang Doudou on the fourth day, and Lin Yun on the fifth day. How does that sound?” Dongfang Xu continued.

Everyone nodded.

The first night passed peacefully. The next day, it was the turn of a man named Zheng Bowen.

That night, the moonlight was dim, and all was quiet. Suddenly, a deep roar came from afar, and the ground trembled slightly.

Zheng Bowen quickly notified the four of them. When the four arrived, they saw a huge three-headed monster slowly walking towards them, exuding a strong evil aura.

"Looks like this guy came to scout ahead tonight!" Dongfang Xu said, then flew towards the demonic beast.

When Dongfang Xu flew closer, Tang Doudou realized how enormous the monsters were. Compared to them, humans looked like ants.

Suddenly, a wall of fire appeared in front of Dongfang Xu and rushed towards the three-headed monster!

But the monster blew the fire out in an instant.

Tang Doudou was stunned. Was this monster really that powerful?

Tang Doudou was about to rush forward when Zheng Bowen stopped her, saying, "Don't worry, Young Master can handle it with ease!"

The next moment, Dongfang Xu unleashed his full power, sending countless rockets hurtling towards the three-headed monster. Although the three-headed monster was enormous, it was also agile, constantly dodging.

The flames that landed on the three-headed monster quickly went out.

The next second, Dongfang Xu unleashed his ultimate move, a dazzling flame piercing through the monster's massive body.

The monster collapsed with a thud, turning into a cloud of black smoke and dissipating.

Dongfang Xu returned, and Tang Doudou asked in confusion, "Why did that monster turn into black smoke and disappear?"

“That’s what makes this place different from others,” Dongfang Xu said. “I suspect that this demonic beast isn’t real!”

Tang Doudou was even more confused.

But Dongfang Xu didn't explain. Instead, he said, "Let's go back. I don't think I'll be showing up again tonight."

Tang Doudou asked the system in confusion, "What exactly is this monster?"

The system sighed and said, "This demonic beast is probably of an unusual origin. Since ancient times, where there is white, there is black; where there is light, there must be darkness."

Tang Doudou nodded, but still didn't know where the monster came from.

"The origins of demonic beasts are twofold. First, the primordial chaotic spiritual energy splits into two: spiritual energy and dark energy. Spiritual energy can purify and elevate living beings, while dark energy signifies pollution and destruction. The power of spiritual energy is equal to that of dark energy. Dark energy hides in the corners of the world, growing larger and stronger step by step in the darkness. Second, it comes from the impurities and darkness of human nature. Some powerful beings, in order to ascend to higher realms, must eliminate these things, and slowly these things gather together to form demonic beasts."

Tang Doudou understood.

"Although the monsters today are enormous, they are not particularly strong. The most terrifying are those monsters that lurk in the shadows and have developed sentience. They can control other monsters and use them for their own purposes. Moreover, the most terrifying aspect of these monsters is their ability to be corrupted by darkness! The fire elemental root is the best combat elemental root, while the other elemental roots are relatively weak and more susceptible to corruption," the system added.

"What about spatial spiritual power?"

“Mutant spiritual roots are generally stronger than ordinary spiritual roots, so there’s no need to worry,” the system replied.

"Does that mean there's a light spiritual root that can dispel darkness?" Tang Doudou continued to ask, for darkness is the opposite of light.

"Of course! However, the number of people with spiritual roots in this world is less than one in ten million. Even if they do have them, they cannot cultivate to a high level because they lack cultivation techniques."

Tang Doudou understood everything.

Of the five people now, it's no wonder that the two that Dongfang Xu brought are both fire elemental roots.

They probably already knew about this.

Back in her room, Tang Doudou continued her training, preparing for future battles.

The third day passed without incident.

On the fourth day, it was Tang Doudou's turn to be on duty.

Tang Doudou carefully guarded her post, and the night was quiet and peaceful.

Suddenly, a cool breeze blew by, and Tang Doudou felt a sense of unease. In the distance, dark shadows slowly emerged, gradually taking shape—it was a gigantic demonic beast.

The beast exuded a strong aura of darkness, and Tang Doudou's heart tightened suddenly.

Just as she was about to summon her companions, she found that the surroundings seemed to be isolated by some kind of force.

"It seems this monster is no ordinary beast; I can only rely on myself." Tang Doudou gripped the Moon Shadow Sword tightly in her hand.

Flames then erupted from the entire Moon Shadow Sword, and Tang Doudou charged towards the demon beast with the sword in hand. The demon beast dodged in a flash.

Tang Doudou's attack missed, and she frowned, knowing that the monster was extremely fast. She quickly adjusted her stance, channeling her spiritual energy into her feet, and instantly accelerated to attack the monster again.

The monster opened its blood-red maw and spewed out black smoke. Tang Doudou swung her Moon Shadow Sword to dispel the smoke and at the same time dodged the monster's claw attacks.

At this moment, Tang Doudou noticed that the monster would pause briefly each time it dodged. She came up with a plan and deliberately exposed a weakness to lure the monster into attacking. Just as the monster pounced, she used spatial spiritual power to teleport behind the monster and stabbed it in the back with her sword.

The monster roared in pain and launched a furious counterattack, injuring Tang Doudou's left arm.
