Cui Ying had already found a large, ancient tree not far away, and flew up to the canopy to sit leisurely.

Seeing Zhu Chaoyun's disheveled appearance, although he was secretly overjoyed, he was still quite satisfied.

Upon hearing Zhu Chaoyun's cry for help, she immediately transmitted her voice and shouted, "Then you should find another tree first, so you don't fall flat on your face again."

"Ah? Oh!"

Upon hearing Cui Ying's reminder, Zhu Chaoyun suddenly realized what was happening and quickly found a nearby ancient tree to jump over to, holding on tightly to prevent herself from falling.

As soon as he regained his footing, Cui Ying, who was not far away, flicked her fingertips slightly, and the Flowing Shadow Needle immediately transformed into a dark blue stream of light, shooting silently towards the berserk wild boar demon.

"Pfft!"

A barely perceptible streak of light flashed through the void, and the Flowing Shadow Needle pierced the wild boar demon's head with pinpoint accuracy in an instant, bringing its charge to an abrupt halt. At the same time, the ancient tree beside it groaned and snapped in two.

"Whoo~"

Two heavy objects fell to the ground in quick succession, and Zhu Chaoyun, who was not far away, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the wild boar spirit's limbs on the ground were still twitching slightly, he immediately asked in surprise, "It won't stand up again, will it?"

Cui Ying smiled, waved to him, and then gracefully leaped down from the treetop, saying, "Why don't you come down and take a look?"

"coming."

Seeing that Cui Ying was leading the way, Zhu Chaoyun jumped down from the tree.

As soon as he landed, he couldn't help but complain to Cui Ying:

“Master, didn’t you say you would protect me? I was almost trampled into mincemeat by this wild boar demon, and you were still laughing behind me.”

"Jade must be carved to become a useful object. A cultivator's skills are usually only revealed in times of crisis. I'm testing you here. Besides, I haven't been idle either. If you don't believe me, just look over there and you'll see."

Following the direction Cui Ying pointed, Zhu Chaoyun quickly saw a huge black body lying on the slope dozens of feet away. Judging from its size, it was definitely no less than the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Compared to the two, the wild boar spirit at his feet, who was at the third level of Qi Refining, seemed petty and insignificant.

More importantly, they were so close that he didn't even sense when Cui Ying attacked or when the battle ended. Even more embarrassingly, he couldn't even defeat a wild boar demon at the third level of Qi Refining, and only managed to take it down with Cui Ying's help.

"What's next? Should we continue the pursuit?"

Zhu Chaoyun walked to Cui Ying's side and stood there, showing even more respect for her.

Cui Ying waved her hand to recall the Flowing Shadow Needles and said, "Chase them! Why not chase them! We finally found some spirit beast meat, of course we can't let them get away so easily."

"I'll listen to my master!"

Still seething with anger after nearly suffering a major loss, Zhu Chaoyun, upon hearing Cui Ying say she was going to chase after them, immediately retorted aggressively:

"Let's slaughter these wild boar demons today, leaving not a single one alive!"

"Haha."

After shaking her head and chuckling twice, Cui Ying scanned the area with her divine sense and led Zhu Chaoyun in a flash to chase after them. They quickly found two wild boar spirits that were barely at the second level of Qi Refining.

This time, Cui Ying didn't have to do much, and Zhu Chaoyun, who had gained experience, quickly avenged her previous defeat.

When Cui Ying brought Zhu Chaoyun and the four wild boar spirits home, the rogue cultivators who had helped build the new house had not yet finished work. Upon seeing the wild boar spirits piled up like a small mountain, they exclaimed in surprise.

"Tsk tsk~ No wonder she's the Rouge Fairy who can slaughter demon tigers. She can kill so many wild boar demons just by casually going into the Phoenix Mountains. We're truly envious!"

"Haha~ I knew coming to help was the right decision! Sister-in-law Wang treats us to monster meat every meal, and now young friend Cui has brought back so much wild boar meat. By the time we finish our work, everyone will probably have gained several sizes!"

"Young friend Cui, do you need our help to deal with these wild boar demons?"

Cui Ying took a sip of the hot tea her sister-in-law handed her, and upon hearing this, smiled and turned around to look at the blue-skirted female cultivator who had just spoken. This person was in her early forties and had a cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining. She vaguely heard her mother call her Sister Zeng very affectionately.

Thinking of this, Cui Ying blinked and smiled:

"Yes, we'll definitely need all of you ladies to help us deal with these wild boar spirits! After we've finished cleaning them up and have dinner, we can all take some back home for our families to try."

"How can this be allowed!?"

Upon hearing this, joy spontaneously appeared on the faces of all the independent cultivators.

These demon beast meats are good stuff. Every household has relatives who can or cannot cultivate. If they can eat food with spiritual energy regularly, it will not only be beneficial to their cultivation, but also strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives.

The saying "Many hands make light work" applies to both the secular world and the cultivation world.

The male cultivators swiftly cleaved the wild boar demons open with their knives, while the female cultivators brought up pots and pans to remove their internal organs and disassemble the wild boar demons one by one.

While preparing dinner, Cui Ying picked out the head and two legs of the wild boar spirit, along with some tender parts, put them in a bamboo basket, and carried it out the door.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, are you home?"

As soon as Cui Ying called out in front of the Wang family's courtyard gate, the vermilion gate opened in response, and a graceful and slender figure walked out from behind it.

"Oh, it's Cui Ying's niece! You've come all this way, and you even brought so many things!"

After Wang Xuan saw Cui Ying's figure clearly, she first pursed her lips, but soon noticed the large bamboo basket standing quietly at her feet. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she walked out very enthusiastically while speaking.

As she carried the bamboo basket into the yard, she muttered to herself:

"Niece Cui Ying, you are so thoughtful. You know your aunt is short of money lately and hasn't had any spirit beast meat for several days, so you brought her so much spirit beast meat!"

"However, I remember a wild boar demon weighs at least seven or eight hundred catties, and you only brought this little bit. Isn't that a bit too little?"

"Also, the wild boar spirit's legs are all bones, there's hardly any meat, not enough for our family to eat~ Niece Cui Ying, quick, before it gets dark, take your aunt to your house and cut some more."

As they spoke, Wang Xuan put down the bamboo basket in her hand, told Luo Ming, who had come after hearing the commotion, to carry the things back first, and then tried to pull Cui Ying away, shamelessly continuing:

"I heard that your family feeds those rogue cultivators spirit beast meat and spirit wine every day while building your new house, and you only give your own aunt these wild boar bones that nobody wants to eat. How can you be so shameless as to do such a thing?!"

"That's right, my lady. You still support her maternal grandparents. Even if they didn't do anything, they still put in a lot of effort. A family that can spend so many spirit stones to buy a mountain and build a new house only gives away this little bit of stuff. Tsk tsk, they are really not as good as outsiders. It's like they're giving away beggars!"

Seeing Wang Xuan and Luo Ming's conspiratorial behavior, Cui Ying narrowed her eyes, her clear gaze filled with icy killing intent.

The Yao Guang Sword was in perfect harmony with its master's mind. The sword trembled slightly, as if it were about to fly out of the storage bag and wreak havoc at any moment.
