The female lead thought she had a "proud and arrogant" character script.

"The fact that demons dare not enter the blood pool means there is something they fear inside. Let's look for it."

With the help of the water-repelling beads, the two joined hands and embarked on an adventure in the Blood Pool.

They spent a full day and night conducting a thorough search of the blood pool.

During this time, Hu Muyu went to check again, but the demon still hadn't left.

Hard work pays off for cultured people. When Luo Qingcheng said he had gained nothing, Hu Muyu's expression turned serious.

"Girl, I've discovered that there seems to be a formation down there."

"What formation?"

"do not know."

Hu Muyu, who was cultured but not very knowledgeable, added to Luo Qingcheng's twitching lips, "Although I don't know what kind of formation it is, it should be related to that demon."

Over the course of that day and night, Hu Muyu gave Luo Qingcheng a thorough lesson.

Demons appear suddenly in this world. They have only a bloodthirsty instinct and once they appear, nothing grows!

Hu Muyu's home in the mortal realm was destroyed by demons, and this was not an isolated case. In the past hundred years, the mortal realm has suffered more and more demonic calamities.

That's not the point. The point is what Hu Muyu just said: this formation is related to demons.

No one knows where the demon came from, but it is clear that this demon was created by humans.

"Someone is deliberately creating demons, girl. Remember, if you manage to get out, you must report it to the sect!"

Hu Muyu will never forget the despair she felt when demons ravaged her home!

Her initial goal in cultivating was not to achieve immortality, but to kill all the demons in the world and protect others!

If the demon refused to leave, she was willing to self-destruct, giving Luo Qingcheng a chance to escape.

Of course, Luo Qingcheng wouldn't give her that chance.

She asked, "Senior sister, since it's an array, there must be a way to break it. Do you know how?"

Hu Muyu was of course unaware that although some sword cultivators would engage in dual or triple cultivation in order to earn spirit stones to support their wives, she was not one of them, after all, her talent was limited.

Shaking her head, in order to maintain her dignity as a senior sister, Hu Muyu tentatively revealed a rumor she had heard from somewhere: "I once heard a senior sister who was a formation cultivator say that the simplest way to break a formation is to find the formation's core and destroy it."

I don't know if it's authentic.

But Luo Qingcheng clearly listened.

Because the concept of a "strategic point" sounds very plausible.

"Then how do we find the core of the formation?"

"do not know."

After exchanging bewildered glances, Luo Qingcheng decided to try his luck.

She led Hu Muyu to cause trouble everywhere.

Hu Muyu went up and secretly took a look. After discovering that the demon hadn't left, he joined Luo Qingcheng in causing trouble.

I don't know what stroke of luck I had, but after kicking a rock off the bottom of the pool, the entire bottom of the pool suddenly emitted a blinding red light.

Intricate patterns were illuminated by red light from near to far, following the path beneath their feet.

Luo Qingcheng saw Hu Muyu's mouth opening and closing as if she was saying something, but she seemed to be deaf and couldn't hear anything. Then, she was forced to close her eyes by the red light.

In the blur, I seemed to see Tomu Yu's figure becoming somewhat transparent, a bit like the female ghost sisters I had encountered before.

She was startled, realizing something.

Overcoming her instincts, she tried to open her eyes again to take a closer look, and saw Senior Sister Hu waving at her and saying two words with a smile.

Judging from the shape of his lips, he should be saying "goodbye".

Luo Qingcheng was stunned, and the scene in front of him changed.

Was that a teleportation array?

She looked around and began to doubt whether the teleportation array was legitimate.

After all, what legitimate teleportation array has one end at the bottom of a blood pool and the other end at a mass grave?

The bulging mounds of graves, with bones half-exposed, are devoid of charm, creating only a horrifying scene.

She tentatively took two steps forward, and a crisp "click" sound came from under her feet.

Looking down, she saw that she had stepped on a skeleton's thigh bone and broken it in two.

It was a robust skeleton leaning against a low grave.

Luo Qingcheng chuckled and apologized to the skeleton, "I'm sorry, Brother Skeleton, I didn't mean to."

The skeleton, dressed in men's coarse cloth, was also very polite, making a "clicking" sound as it rubbed its upper and lower jaws together, and replied, "It's alright, I'll put it back on."

The skeletons in this place are pretty good.

Luo Qingcheng sighed.

Take two steps forward.

wrong!

She turned back sharply.

Ghostly blue flames flickered from the skull's eye sockets as its bony hands gripped its leg bones, attempting to reposition them.

However, I might not be very familiar with the process, so I failed to install it successfully several times.

Luo Qingcheng: ...

I feel a little guilty.

Just as I was about to say something, the mound of earth on the grave that Brother Skeleton was leaning against moved.

Luo Qingcheng's expression stiffened.

Another skeleton, significantly smaller than the first one, rose from the ground.

Skeleton Girl stretched, her bones cracking all over.

It seems this grave is the bed for these skeletons, and the mound of earth on top is their blanket.

Those half-exposed bones are—

Kicking off the blanket?

When Skull Sister saw Luo Qingcheng, she greeted him proactively, her pupils flashing with fire, her voice playful and cute, "New here? Hello there."

"……Hello."

It seems there are quite a few newcomers here, which doesn't surprise Sister Skeleton.

No wonder the graves in this mass grave stretch as far as the eye can see.

I just don't know if there's a way out of this place, or if it's a closed space like an underground one.

"Ahhh!"

The screams coming from afar interrupted Luo Qingcheng's thoughts.

That voice sounds so familiar.

The screams grew closer and closer. Before Luo Qingcheng could even recall where he had heard them, the source of the screams was already right in front of him.

Li Zhiming was being chased by a bunch of skeletons missing arms and legs.

The skeletons held a leg bone, a hand bone, and some were even hugging their own skulls. The fire in their eyes leaped wildly in their sockets, as if venting their inner dissatisfaction.

The cracking sounds of bones mingling with Li Zhiming's screams made Luo Qingcheng burst out laughing.

Turning around, I was met with the aggrieved expression of the person who had been mocked.

Luo Qingcheng: ...

In an effort to maintain a good relationship with her wealthy older brother, she argued, "Don't blame me. I've been professionally trained, and I don't usually smile."

Seeing Li Zhiming's distrustful expression.

Luo Qingcheng thought for a moment and added, "Unless you can't help it."

Fortunately, Li Zhiming didn't have time to sue Luo Qingcheng.

The skeleton army is here!

Ignoring his refined and gentle image, Li Zhiming grabbed Luo Qingcheng, who was trying to escape in the face of disaster, and declared in a resounding voice, "I am Miss Luo's half-brother!"

Don't even think about abandoning him and running away!

Luo Qingcheng was shocked!

Li Zhiming had never denied, admitted, or taken responsibility for her previous attempts to claim kinship with him, but now he's trying to drag her down with him by taking a share of her family fortune?!

He immediately grabbed Li Zhiming's sleeve excitedly, as moved as a bastard son finally acknowledged by his family, "Yes, that's right! By the way, if your family divides the inheritance, how much will I get?!"
