It was only then that Jiang Huan noticed that these guards were actually created by witchcraft; she hadn't realized it before!

It must be said that this Wu Lan is indeed very skilled in witchcraft!

"Miss Jiang Huan, it's all better now."

“Okay.” Jiang Huan replied, “Go make a call, then take your grandma and wait quietly there. There’s food and lodging there, so at least you won’t have to travel so far.”

"Thank you, Miss Jiang Huan!"

After watching the grandmother and granddaughter leave, Jiang Huan looked up at the glaring sunlight and took out her phone.

The phone signal went from one full bar to full strength.

It seems there's no signal here at the ancient ruins. The reason I couldn't make calls before was related to this magnetic shield!

……

at the same time.

On Ling Siye's side.

He fought with the Nine-Bat Demon Lord. The two fought back and forth, collapsing several stone pillars and stirring up clouds of dust.

"Kid! You're something else! You—"

"I know I'm good, stop praising me, bring it on!"

"If you dare kill me, be careful that girl gets angry with you!"

"No way. To Huanhuan, you're not even as important as a single hair on my head!"

"You, you, you brat, you're far too confident! Since you know I'm not as important as you, why do you insist on picking on me?"

"Because you want to kill Huanhuan!"

"I already said it was just a test, but you insist on making a fuss about it! Do you think I'm easy to bully?!"

Enraged, the Nine-Bat Demon Lord unleashed his full power, disregarding everything else, and wreaked havoc, attempting to use the advantage of visibility in the darkness to launch a counterattack against Ling Siye.

Little did he expect that Ling Siye's ice-attribute techniques were so masterful that he shivered as soon as he got close to Ling Siye.

The final battle ended when Ling Siye received Jiang Huan's communication talisman.

"Aye, why haven't you guys come up yet?"

“He’s too much trouble, he’s not even dressed yet.” Ling Siye stopped and looked at the disheveled Nine-Bat Demon Lord opposite him. “It will only take ten minutes.”

"Okay, I'll wait for you outside."

After putting away the communication talisman, Ling Siye calmed down and looked at the Nine-Bat Demon Lord, "Take off your clothes and put these on. I'll teach you how to dress."

Nine-Bat Demon Lord dusted off his hair. "It would have been better if we had done this earlier!"

ten minutes later.

Covered in various sun protection tools with zero exposed skin, the Nine-Bat Demon Lord followed Ling Siye out of the ancient ruins.

The sun had risen, and the sunlight was even more dazzling than before.

Jiang Huan glanced at the Nine-Bat Demon Lord and chuckled, "Grab the umbrella, let's go!"

After leaving the ancient ruins, Jiang Huan and his group flew directly away from Danzhou to avoid falling into the illusion again.

Now that Danzhou has merged with the Illusionary Realm, she no longer needs to meddle in other people's business. However, to prevent the forces of the Fire Lotus Palace and the Netherworld Palace from getting bogged down in this quagmire, she directly designated Danzhou as a place that should not be visited unless absolutely necessary.

After leaving Danzhou, they continued their journey, crossing a barren land where the sand and gravel on the ground made a crisp sound under their feet.

Jiang Huan and Ling Siye walked side by side.

Nine-Bat Demon Lord followed behind, keeping a certain distance. His outfit was good at protecting him from the sun, but it absorbed heat, and he felt like he was going to die from the heat.

But when he saw the sunlight, he felt even worse, as if insects were biting his body!

"Huanhuan, do you really believe him?" Ling Siye glanced at the cursing Nine-Bat Demon Lord behind him and asked Jiang Huan in a low voice, clearly having doubts about the Nine-Bat Demon Lord's sudden obedience.

"It's hard to say, but with the contract in place, he can't touch me for the time being. You don't need to worry so much. Let's leave here first and then go find the medicine," Jiang Huan replied.

Because of signing this contract, the Nine-Bat Demon Lord is now merely following her like a 'servant,' and rebelling against his master won't be so easy.

"Mm." Ling Siye nodded.

Ding!

A text message arrived on my phone.

Ling Siye picked it up, glanced at it, and handed it to Jiang Huan. "Chen Cheng said he has found the whereabouts of the Nine-Turn Golden Body Grass, but there are many cultivators lying in wait, including family disciples from Zhongzhou. The most crucial thing is that the Nine-Turn Golden Body Grass is not yet mature and needs a month."

Jiang Huan took the document and glanced at it quickly. "Let's go directly to Selangor and meet up with them."

"Okay." Ling Siye put away his phone and glanced again at the Nine-Bat Demon Lord holding a pink umbrella behind him. "Are we really going to bring him along? Or should we just lock him up in the Netherworld Palace?"

Jiang Huan stopped and looked at Ling Siyue seriously. "Aye, I've noticed you're very resistant to him. Is it really because he wanted to kill me?"

If it really was because of her, then why did Ah Ye still want to kill the Nine-Bat Demon Lord even though she had said not to?

“I…” Ling Siye was speechless. After a moment of silence, he sighed, “I don’t know either. I just inexplicably hate and despise him, and want to kill him.”

"Although I don't know why, don't worry, when he really deserves to die, I won't keep him alive!" After saying that, Jiang Huan looked back.

The Nine-Bat Demon Lord stopped, met their gazes, and gripped the umbrella handle tightly. "Why are you staring at me like that? I didn't curse you!"

Jiang Huan and Ling Siye exchanged a glance, said nothing, and turned to continue walking forward.

Seeing the two people's inexplicable behavior, the Nine-Bat Demon Lord could only continue to mentally berate them!

If I had known that this would be the outcome after I came out, I would have preferred to have stayed asleep in the palace and waited to tempt people again!

More than ten days later.

Jiang Huan and his two companions arrived at the edge of a lush forest, just as they entered the Northern Continent. The branches and leaves of the trees swayed gently in the breeze. Compared to the dusty and sandy Danzhou region, the scenery of the Northern Continent was quite nice.

The chirping of birds echoed through the forest at night, sounding exceptionally pleasant.

"Let's rest here for a bit!" Jiang Huan suggested. "Old Jiu, go gather some firewood, let's make a fire and have some barbecue."

"I don't know what firewood is!" The Nine-Bat Demon Lord sat down on a nearby rock in anger.

Old Ninth? They actually called him Old Ninth? That sounds awful and is so impolite!

Humans are so annoying!

"Then don't beg me for food when we eat later."

"Hmph!" Nine-Bat Demon Lord gritted his teeth, "I'm not a waste. In such a vast forest, do you think I can't find food?"

“Alright.” Jiang Huan nodded, not pressuring the Nine-Bat Demon Lord any further. Instead, she took out her sword and quickly chopped down a tree to start a fire.

Nine-Bat Demon Lord was speechless: "..."

Making him do something that could be done with a simple gesture is just deliberately torturing him!

Once he recovers, he'll definitely teach humanity a lesson!

After sitting down, Ling Siye looked at the message on his phone and said, "Danzhou is in the northwest, Xuezhou is in the northeast, and we are now in the territory of Beizhou. Beizhou has a unique feature: no matter what the seasons are like in other states, there are very obvious seasonal differences in Beizhou from west to east. The forest here is lush and green, which is obviously spring. If we travel for a few more days, we will reach Xuezhou."

"The Nine-Turn Golden Body Grass will not mature for another half month. I've calculated it, and half a month is enough for us to cross the Northern Continent to reach the Selangor Continent."

As Jiang Huan spoke, she took out the corpse of a dead demon beast, quickly processed it with her spiritual power, skewered the beast meat onto a thick stick, and then roasted it over the fire, sprinkling it with barbecue seasoning.
