Urban Demon Refining System

"Your posture is wrong! It should be like this!" At the pool table, Zhao Baichuan corrected Huang Fengguai's movements hand in hand. "This way, your hand won't slip when you hit the ball!"

Actually, he was completely bluffing; he himself was only a mediocre teacher, how could he possibly teach others? However, although the teacher was incompetent, the student was quite diligent, displaying the image of a studious and inquisitive student. "Hmm, much better indeed! No wonder I kept missing before!"

"That's because your skills are terrible!" Zhao Baichuan thought to himself, patiently continuing to fool him. Time passed by, until Huang Fengguai finally relented after he scored three goals in a row: "Phew! This king is indeed gifted! I learned such a difficult move in no time! Hahaha!"

"Your Majesty is exceptionally talented, so this little trick is nothing to you!" The rat demon hurriedly brought over a cup of hot tea, flattering him. Because of the Yellow Wind Monster, this guy actually brought Zhao Baichuan a cup as well, showing off his lackey attitude.

However, Zhao Baichuan had no interest in savoring the fragrant tea. He spoke up, "Your Majesty! Now we can fulfill our promise, right?"

"Don't worry! Although I am a monster, I am not one to break my promises. I will take you to the Spider Cave. Come, come, let's play a game first!" Clearly, this guy was still a little resentful about losing to him just now.

"You—" Zhao Baichuan looked at the rat demon beside him, who was gleaming with ferocity, and had no choice but to swallow his harsh words. "Fine! I'll play a game with you!"

What happened next was, of course, a foregone conclusion. With his deliberate intention to throw the game or even set up a goal, Huang Fengguai won smoothly.

"Haha! I am indeed powerful! Very well! I will take you on a trip today! You! Go and prepare five, no, three black-boned chickens. I am going to visit the Spider Cave!" the Yellow Wind Monster instructed the Rat Demon.

Zhao Baichuan's lips twitched as he listened. Could this guy be lingering here just to greedily eat these black-boned worms? By the way, is this thing a rat or a weasel in its true form?

The black-boned chicken was quickly prepared. The Yellow Wind Monster slung it over his body, lifted Zhao Baichuan's shoulder with his right hand, and a gust of yellow wind appeared from beneath his feet. "It's ready!" he reminded him, and then rode the demonic wind towards the Spider Cave.

Leaving aside their journey, the scene inside the Spider Cave was quite different.

"Sister Biluo! Are you sure this Youth-Preserving Bead has the effect of reversing aging?" In the luxurious bedroom, a beautiful woman held up a bead and asked, "It is the Youth-Preserving Bead that Zhao Baichuan gave to Biluo before!"

"Of course! I saw the King of Wuji Kingdom return to his twenty-year-old appearance with my own eyes!" Biluo, dressed in a milk-colored dress, covered her mouth and said with a smile. "Don't worry, sister! You will definitely return to your twenty-year-old appearance soon after you wear this Youth-Preserving Bead!"

This woman was none other than the spider demon that the Yellow Wind Monster had mentioned, but for some reason, she was now addressing Biluo as a sister.

"Hehe! I hope so!" The spider demon swallowed the Youth-Preserving Pearl, her eyes darting around, and said, "Sister Biluo! I've heard that your mermaid clan retains the appearance of someone who is twenty years old from birth to death, is that true?"

"So that's what she was planning!" Biluo's expression changed slightly. Merfolk do indeed have the ability to maintain their youth forever, but that's not their own ability; it's entirely due to a treasure. Could this spider demon be after that treasure?

"Hehe! Sister, you're joking! Merfolk only live for a mere hundred years, how could they have such heaven-defying abilities? Sister, you can't believe these rumors!"

"Oh? So, little sister, you have some kind of secret to preserving your youth?" The spider demon clearly didn't believe her and reached out to touch Biluo's face. "Your skin is so smooth; it's probably not just the effect of this youth-preserving pearl! As far as I know, you haven't had this pearl for very long!"

"Hehe!" Biluo forced a smile, "I am a junior in the mermaid clan, only twenty years old this year, how could I talk about eternal youth! Sister, you're really joking!"

"Of course I know your real age, but surely not all of your elders are twenty years old!" The spider demon had clearly been planning this all along. "I heard that you were favored by an ancient immortal, which is why you have the ability to stay young forever! I wonder if I'm right?"

"The Merfolk did indeed receive the protection of a certain immortal, but that was in ancient times. The idea of ​​eternal youth is just hearsay and shouldn't be taken seriously!"

"Oh? I see! I was being presumptuous!" The spider demon narrowed her eyes and gently blew on Biluo's face. "That girl is truly a beauty of unparalleled grace! I think those so-called goddesses that humans talk about are nothing special!"

"This..." Biluo was clearly at a loss with the spider demon. Just as she was about to retort, she heard a hurried voice from outside: "My lord! The Yellow Wind Demon is outside the manor, saying he wants to visit you!"

"What's that yellow-haired rat doing here!" The spider demon's face immediately showed displeasure, but she still straightened her clothes. "Sister, rest here for a while. I'll go out and meet that Yellow Wind Monster first!" With that, she waved her sleeve and left with her maid.

"The Yellow Wind Monster? Is that the yellow-haired rat that captured us?" Biluo's eyes showed a thoughtful expression. "It seems Xiaochuan is still in his hands. I wonder how he is now! No! I have to find a way to get out of here!"

She paced back and forth in the room, pondering a way to escape.

"This spider demon is quite the tailor; even her cave dwelling is designed with such style!" Biluo said, looking at the almost transparent spider silk. She knew that if she touched it, she would definitely alert the spider demon.

"That's it! I can do it like this!" Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she pulled a seashell from her person. "Come out, little one!"

A small golden insect flew out and landed on Biluo's hand. "Mother said she would call you out in the most critical moment. I wonder what surprise you will bring me?"

As if understanding her words, the little insect flapped its wings and flew up, its body bursting into golden flames.

"Ding! The Golden Cicada sacrifice is complete! Please wait patiently for the responding demon!" A notification sound rang in her mind.

"It's actually a sacrificial summoning!" Biluo was also taken aback. Sacrificial spells were ancient witchcraft. Could it be that the immortal who protected the mermaid clan was a witch?

Surprised as she was, her attention was quickly drawn to the magic circle that appeared before her. It was a halo that resembled a mirror, and faint roars of beasts could be heard coming from within it!
