Fairy, help me practice

　This means it is not an illusion.

　Chen Yao released his divine sense and found a few people curled up in a huge tree that was so big that a hundred people could hug it.

　personal.

　He was struggling over whether he should go over. They were also human beings and had found a place to shelter from the rain, but they could also be enemies.

　"That's how it was. Those from the Demon Sect don't need to seek shelter in tree holes in this forest. If those from the Righteous Path want to harm you, they'll have to use magic, and that'll only bring disaster upon themselves."

　Yun Jiang reminded Chen Yao.

　Chen Yao followed the sound.

　The moans grew louder, making people blush.

　It was indeed a giant tree, like a solitary peak, and even the tree hole looked like a cave.

　An orange-yellow light emanated from the cave entrance, dyeing yellow the humus in front of the cave that was fluttering in the wind.

　The sounds of "beeping, peeling" were intertwined with moans.

　"Snapped!"

　Chen Yao stepped on a dead branch that was buried under fallen leaves and broke it.

　The groaning stopped.

　A little boy's plea was heard.

　"who?"

　In the tree hole, a woman shouted sternly, and a silver dagger shot out and stabbed Chen Yao's feet.

　Chen Yao was stunned and questioned Yun Jiang in his consciousness: Didn’t you say everything was fine?

　Yun Jiang did not respond.

　The sound of raindrops could be heard from the treetops above.

　Chen Yao had no choice but to rush into the tree hole.

　"Don't come in!"

　Before the woman in the tree hole could finish her words, Chen Yao had already entered, and a white misty rain curtain happened to rise outside the cave.

　Amid the sounds of wind and rain, the crackling bonfire in the tree hole seemed particularly peaceful and quiet.

　If, there wasn't this strange scene before my eyes.

　A beautiful woman with half her clothes off was sitting astride a little boy, moving her body up and down involuntarily.

　The orange-yellow light cast a mixture of light and dark shadows on the two people, making them look particularly hideous.

　The beautiful woman's face showed shame and regret, greed and debauchery, as well as hatred for Chen Yao's reckless intrusion.

　Like a devil or a ghost.

　"Get out! Don't be afraid of the child, it will be fine soon, uh uh uh ~ why don't you get it out!"

　The child under her crotch had sunken cheeks and had cried all his tears. He was begging just now, but now his eyes were dead.

　Yun Jiang sneered in Chen Yao's consciousness: "You self-righteous people of the righteous path, think that you can safely avoid the dangers of Demon Peak by finding someone who cultivates spiritual powers? What a joke."

　Chen Yao turned his gaze away from the woman and found that the other person he had just sensed with his spiritual sense had been squeezed into a dried corpse by her.

　How is this going?

　He asked Yun Jiang.

　People with spiritual powers are most afraid of inner demons. Mo Feng only magnified her inner demons. Ha, she is just a whore.

　Are we in danger?

　No.

　why……

　Before Chen Yao finished asking, he heard a sound like a watermelon bursting.

　He turned around and saw that the beautiful woman's head had been blown into pieces. Her body was still shaking for a while before it fell backwards.

　The child was also dying.

　"Let's save him!"

　Jiu Luo sighed.

　Chen Yao pulled the child out of the soul-inducing cave and fed him a recovery pill.

　It was a long time before the child regained consciousness. Seeing that his companions around him had died tragically and the mutilated body of the beautiful woman, he burst into tears.

　"Master's wife! My master's wife!"

　Chen Yao pursed his lips, thinking that this guy is not a gentleman...

　"Thank you so much for saving me!"

　The child cried for a while, then slowly cheered up and knelt down to worship Chen Yao.

　I didn't expect this kid to have such a good character and recover so quickly. Chen Yao waved his hand: "It's just a piece of cake."

　"Did Benefactor also respond to the Mingyang Sect's call and come to the Demon Realm to destroy the Demon Sect?"

　The child sat by the campfire from a distance, looking at Chen Yao calmly.

　Chen Yao looked at him and nodded, "Yes! However, I am just a casual cultivator. I have only heard of the call and don't know where to meet up."

　The child forced a smile: "Don't worry, benefactor, I know this. We..."

　He glanced at his master's wife, who had tragically died, and sighed, "We were originally a small sect in Nanji Mountain, and we came here specifically to eliminate demons. It's a pity that I'm the only one left. However, my master's aunt married into the Tianbao Pavilion, a subsidiary sect of the Mingyang Sect. As long as I leave the forest, I can contact her."

　Chen Yao glanced at him and realized that he was trying to show his value to him so that he wouldn't be abandoned after the rain stopped.

　I didn't expect that the righteous path would choose this time to launch the war to exterminate demons. We will inevitably encounter many righteous people in the future. It is better to let this child provide cover.

　"Okay, I'll trouble you then," Chen Yao thought for a moment. "To be honest, for a casual cultivator like me, coming to the Demon Realm is just to risk my life for a better future and to build some connections. Most righteous people look down on casual cultivators, so I wonder if I can pretend to be a member of your sect. Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you."

　"What's the big deal? A cultivator like you who bravely stands up for justice is exactly the kind of fellow cultivator our Nanji Sect longs for. Anyway, I'm the only one left in the sect, so from now on, you're my uncle!"

　In the heavy rain outside, there were suddenly sounds of horses neighing and people roaring.

　A tender voice shouted, "If I ever see that traitor Chen Yao, I'll tear him into pieces!"

Chapter 302 Lingzhou

　Outside the tree hole, halos of various colors flashed, horses neighed, beasts roared, and a chaotic stream of footsteps came in.

　They took off their wet rain cloaks and saw the bonfire in front of Chen Yao. Some life finally appeared on his pale face.

　"we

　I am a disciple of the Kuanglu Sect. A heavy rain suddenly struck, leaving me with nowhere to hide. I have come here without permission. I beg you to forgive me and give me some space."

　An old man with a long beard bowed to Chen Yao, obviously treating him as the person in charge.

　The others glanced into the cave and saw the corpses. Their faces changed and they reached out to hold down their weapons.

　The old man waved his hand: "Don't be so presumptuous!"

　Having said that, he was also squinting at Chen Yao.

　The child also looked at Chen Yao, as if waiting for his instructions.

　Chen Yao waved his sleeves and said, "This tree hole is not mine alone. Please feel free to use it as you please."

　The old man thanked him and sat on the other side with his followers, looking at Chen Yao and the child calmly.

　Chen Yao's heart was also tense at this time. He looked at these people when they first came in, but there were no familiar faces.

　But just because he didn't know them didn't mean they didn't know him.

　Rather than being timid and arousing suspicion, it is better to take the initiative.

　"Just now I heard that fairy mention Chen Yao. Do you have any news about him?"

　Chen Yao asked directly.

　Those people were stunned.

　One of the girls in purple looked at Chen Yao with her eyes flashing, and said impatiently, "Why are you asking about him? What's your relationship with him? Do you know where he is?"

　He asked three questions in a row, being very aggressive and arrogant.

　Even the child frowned and couldn't help but ask, "We are fellow Taoists, but why does this fairy sound like she is questioning a criminal?"

　The girl glared at him and looked at Chen Yao intently.

　Chen Yao met her gaze and said, "I just want to see what he looks like."

　The girl snorted coldly: "I advise you to give up this idea."

　"how?"

　The girl turned her head to look at the white rain outside the cave: "This evil thief is hiding deep and has many tricks. When he is practicing Qi, he can cross the border and kill people. I am afraid you will never catch up with him in this lifetime..."

　Chen Yao gave her a strange look. "Didn't Fairy just say that he was going to be torn into pieces? Why does it sound like you're emboldening him now?"

　The girl glared at him and said, "I hate him!"

　"Did he do anything to you?" the child asked curiously.

　The girl's eyes turned red.

　Is this your debt of love again? Yun Jiang sneered in his consciousness.

　I don't have any love debts. I always finish what I start. I have never seen this woman before! Chen Yao was also very surprised.

　"He, he's such a genius, why would he betray the sect and degenerate? I...I want to rip his heart out with my own hands and ask him."

　"Lingzhou, don't be rude!"

　The old man with a long beard scolded her, and then asked about Chen Yao's origins.

　The little boy answered the question, and then the two sides exchanged information about the battle against demons.

　The night passed in heavy rain.

　The morning light brushed the misty fingers of phantom light, waking up the person in the tree hole.

　Chen Yao led the child out of the cave. The forest was filled with white fog and they could not tell east from west.

　This worried the little boy: "Uncle, we will get lost."

　"It doesn't matter."

　Behind him, the old man stretched his legs and walked out with his disciples.

　He took off a brocade bag from his waist and threw it, and a white rat with a single horn fell to the ground.

　"This is a Neighbor Rat. They live in pairs, and the male and female are able to sense each other. With it, we can find our vanguard troops stationed at Demon Peak."

　"In that case, thank you all for your help." Chen Yao said.

　"We are fellow Taoists, so why should we be so formal?"

　Several people followed the white rat forward.

　Along the way, the girl named Lingzhou kept looking at Chen Yao, which made Chen Yao feel uncomfortable.

　After walking and stopping for a while, around noon, a strong west wind blew in front of them, and the view in front of them was widened and filled with the ferocious dark blue mountains.

　Finally walked out of the woods.

　"Go further and you'll enter the Demonic Peak. The danger there is beyond words. It's best not to use magic if you can. Everyone, be careful."

　The old man picked up the brocade bag and threw out a huge bat with fiery red stripes on its back.

　Bats flapped their wings and flew over everyone's heads, casting shadows that covered them.

　"This is a tamed fire demon bat, born from the Fire Cloud Cave in the Demon Realm. With its protection, climbing the Demon Peak will be safer."

　This side of the Demon Peak was originally facing the sun, but due to the clouds and fog covering the middle of the mountain, not even a ray of sunlight could be seen below the halfway point, so it was quite cold and gloomy.

　The higher they went, the more frequent the howling sounds became in the rugged and pathless mountains, and the more difficult it became for the righteous disciples.

　Someone was so tired that he couldn't step steadily and was thrown down by the rolling rocks.

　It was too late for the fellow disciples to rescue him. The man fell several feet and grabbed a protruding rock with one hand.
