This immortal was clearly ordinary, yet he was unusually confident.

Qin Qianqian was somewhat surprised to hear this, because the voice was obviously very young, which did not quite match the old monster like the Blood Demon who had lived for hundreds of years.

However, it is said that this villain is capricious and has some unique quirks, which is normal; perhaps he likes to dress up as a young person.

The reason she claimed to be surnamed Wu was to try and build a closer relationship, hoping that the Blood Demon would spare the lives of the people of Cangzhou out of consideration for her.

After all, in a sense, the blood of the demon in front of her flowed in her veins.

Of course, she knew very well that this was almost impossible.

"Senior... this is the 'Rejuvenation Pill' unique to my Qingtian Sect. It has miraculous effects on prolonging lifespan. I hope you will accept it!"

Qin Qianqian bowed and handed over the porcelain bottle in her hand, not even daring to look up at Zheng Zhuang.

Zheng Zhuang slowly turned around, his gaze slightly narrowing. This little girl looks thin, but she's quite well-endowed!

"Ahem! I'll accept the pill. You may rise!" Zheng Zhuang said calmly as he took the porcelain bottle.

Although he felt somewhat nauseous at the pills, he figured that pills that could prolong life must be quite precious, and he could exchange them for something he didn't need.

The cultivation level of the tomb's owner is impossible to determine, but one thing is certain: he was truly poor!

Because Dongfang Wuming was originally just an ordinary cultivator, and after achieving great success in his cultivation, he went out for a short while before facing a heavenly tribulation.

Almost all of their savings were spent on building the ancient tomb, and the few elixirs they had made from the medicinal herbs had also been consumed by Zheng Zhuang in recent years.

Seeing that the pills had been accepted, Qin Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. Accepting the gift meant there was room for negotiation, and it seemed that this demon was not as unreasonable as the rumors suggested.

Only then did she dare to look up at Zhengzhuang, and what she saw was a young man dressed in a white Taoist robe.

His features were unremarkable, not at all as fierce as one might imagine. His Taoist robe and cloth boots were old-fashioned and quite different from what was fashionable at the time.

The most striking feature of his entire being is... ordinary!

What surprised her most was the hairstyle; the hair, clearly blown about by the strong wind, looked messy and flamboyant...

Qin Qianqian could hardly believe her eyes. Was this the Blood Demon who made the entire righteous path of Cangzhou feel like it was facing a great enemy?

Seeing her staring blankly at him, Zheng Zhuang felt a sense of helplessness and sighed inwardly, "I knew this would happen."

Qin Qianqian panicked immediately, realizing that her gaze had been strange and might have displeased the demon.

"I'm sorry, senior, I..."

Zheng Zhuang waved his hand and said with considerable emotion:

"It's not your fault! I am so handsome that no woman in this world can resist my charm!"

However, I must warn you, do not have any improper thoughts!

"While you may have some beauty, you are still unworthy of my unparalleled looks!"

Qin Qianqian was completely bewildered. What was he saying?

Unparalleled beauty?

Unreasonable desires?

This devil must have something wrong with his head!

No wonder the elders of the sect often said that although evil cultivation techniques are powerful, they can easily distort people's minds!

"senior……"

"You don't need to be too sad! After all, there are very few people in this world who are worthy of me. You are just one of the thousands that I will reject!"

"I……"

"However, you are lucky, because you are the first person I have refused since I came out of seclusion!"

Qin Qianqian opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say...

Seeing that the little girl seemed to understand his good intentions, Zheng Zhuang nodded with satisfaction.

Fortunately, I nipped the seed in the bud. If I had rejected this girl when she was already deeply in love with me, it might have made her Dao heart unstable!

I am so perfect!

He's handsome and kind-hearted; who knows which lucky woman he'll end up with!

"Now, let's get down to business! I am not the Blood Demon you speak of. That old man left after we fought, saying he would keep his promise!"

Still in a daze, Qin Qianqian was startled again, and it took her a while to come to her senses:

"You didn't... keep your promise? Senior, are you saying you stopped the Blood Demon?"

Zheng Zhuang, enjoying the look of shock mixed with admiration in his eyes, said calmly:

"That old man is quite capable, but unfortunately, he met me!"

Qin Qianqian looked around and could easily tell that a major battle had taken place here.

I never expected that there would be such a master in Cangzhou who could defeat the Blood Demon!

In other words, this young man in front of us saved countless lives in Cangzhou!

When she looked at Zheng Zhuang again, her gaze was completely different. His ordinary face seemed to have acquired a different kind of temperament, and even his messy hairstyle seemed to be the unpretentious manner of a senior master.

A moment later, she bowed respectfully to Zheng Zhuang:

"Thank you, senior!"

Zheng Zhuang offered a slight gesture of support, then declared with righteous indignation:

"We cultivators have a duty to protect all living beings; how can we sit idly by and do nothing!"

At that moment, sunlight streamed through the clouds onto his face, adding a touch of sanctity to his image.

Qin Qianqian was deeply moved. Yes, while the entire righteous path of Cangzhou stood idly by, he stood up resolutely by himself. He was a true hero!

"Senior, that pill..."

Since he's not a blood demon, there's no need for pills, right? Besides, he doesn't seem to be nearing the end of his lifespan.

Qin Qianqian had her own little thoughts. The senior in the sect was seriously injured when he saved her mother back then and has not recovered since. She has been fortunate to be protected by the senior over the years, but has never had the opportunity to repay him.

That elixir not only prolongs life but also has miraculous effects on healing injuries.

If I return to my sect and lie that the pills have already been sent out, and then secretly give them to that senior, I can definitely deceive everyone.

"What? Is my intervention not even worth a single pill?"

Zheng Zhuang was a little annoyed. Although he was forced to put on a show, he did put in the effort, so asking for some compensation wasn't unreasonable.

Unexpectedly, Qin Qianqian immediately knelt down, tears welling up in her eyes, and said:

"I know this request is a bit excessive, but this pill is of great use to me. I hope you will grant my request, senior. If you agree, I am willing to pay any price!"

"Anything is okay?"

"Anything... is fine!"

Zheng Zhuang couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He really couldn't bring himself to be harsh with such a delicate little girl kneeling in front of him.

He pondered for a moment, then sighed and said:

"Very well, I have been in seclusion for many years and am quite unfamiliar with the current situation. You will serve as my guide for the time being. If you perform well, the matter of the elixir is not out of the question!"

Qin Qianqian was overjoyed and nodded vigorously:

"Rest assured, senior, I will serve you with all my heart and soul!"

"Let's make this clear first: you're welcome to have meals and drinks with me, but you can't do anything inappropriate!"

"Yes, senior, you can rest assured that I have absolutely no improper thoughts!"

Seeing that Zheng Zhuang was a kind person, Qin Qianqian became much bolder and started joking with him.

Aside from being extremely narcissistic, this senior seems to be a decent person!
