The room was brightly lit as the night gradually deepened.

Zhao Huai sat in a chair, while the girl in a green skirt lay on the ground. At this moment, Yan Jing bent down, tapping two fingers on the girl’s wrist to check her pulse.

“How is she? Can she be saved?” Zhao Huai asked.

“Her injuries are severe, both her meridians and flesh body have been shattered. She can be saved, but it’s difficult to remove the demonic qi in her body. It seems she has just experienced a fierce battle,” Yan Jing said seriously, then took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a medicinal pill, and put it into the girl’s pale lips.

He used his True Qi to refine the medicinal pill.

The girl’s pale cheeks showed a painful expression, and her forehead was accompanied by some sweat. After a while, her complexion gradually turned red.

Having done all this, Yan Jing turned around and looked at Zhao Huai, asking:

“The solidity of this woman’s meridians and True Qi doesn’t seem like that of the Qi-Refining Realm. Is she a cultivator in the Initiation Stage? How did you find her?”

Zhao Huai answered honestly: “Earlier, I was dealing with the fox demon’s puppet. Suddenly, two confrontational rays of light appeared in the sky, and she fell from the sky.”

“She is the Immortal Cultivation Sect Disciple I mentioned to you.” “Immortal Cultivation Sect Disciple?”

Yan Jing quickly recalled, the guest that Zhao Huai had mentioned before.

No wonder, she was a sect disciple.

“Is she a disciple of the Immortal Yearning Sect?” Li Chong, who had been silent, couldn’t help but ask.

“Sir, why do you say that?” Zhao Huai tilted his head to ask.

Li Chong waved his hand to indicate: “Don’t call me ‘Sir’ anymore. I failed to save my son’s life, and I failed to handle the demon situation properly. I really can’t bear it.”

Li Chong stood up from the bed, thought for a moment, and said slowly, “Three days ago, the Immortal Yearning Sect had said that they would send disciples down the mountain. The cause was naturally the recent demon events in Jingyang Town. Indeed, many demons had been found near Jinzhou recently.”

“But why is there no news about this?”

Li Chong sighed, “In order not to cause panic among the people, the news was naturally blocked. It was enough for the sect to take action. But who could have expected that we would encounter trouble that even a sect disciple couldn’t handle?”

“Nevertheless, Sir, your cultivation is powerful. You are our lifesaver, so please accept my bow of gratitude.”

Li Chong’s words were true. If it weren’t for Zhao Huai, he might have died today.

Yan Jing and Zhao Huai exchanged a glance, seeing the helplessness in each other’s eyes, they couldn’t help but smile wryly.

“The people outside should be awake by now. Governor Li can ask them to report to their sect. The demonic creatures shouldn’t dare to attack for a while, ” Zhao Huai reminded.

“Alright, I’ll go and arrange it now.”

Li Chong nodded and went outside the house after hearing.

After a short while, “Cough…’

A soft cough sounded.

Her clothes were in tatters, not a single piece intact, so her collar was chilly. Fortunately, a blanket covered her chest.

Soon, she suddenly remembered that she still had an unfulfilled mission, but the Treasured Sword she had been holding tightly in her hand was gone.

Her beautiful eyes burst with a boiling killing intent as she turned over and got up, only to find that two people were sitting in front of her.Directly in front of her was a man in a white robe, who looked very familiar. He had exceptional good looks and his skin seemed to be as smooth as a woman’s. Before she could think further, her head throbbed painfully again.

“Awake?”

Zhao Huai sensed movement behind him and turned around, smiling faintly.

The girl in the green skirt showed a cautious look in her eyes. Still very confused, she swallowed, her dry throat somewhat hoarse, and asked weakly:

“Who are you?

“How could you forget me after just a short time?” Zhao Huai laughed while explaining.

“I saw you falling from the sky earlier and lying on the road. I then brought you into the house. Luckily, Doctor Yan was here, so he treated you initially. Although it may not have completely healed you, it at least saved your life.” His voice was calm and gentle, as if he were talking to a long-lost friend.

The girl in the green skirt closed her eyes and concentrated. The pain in her head subsided a bit, and her mind became somewhat clearer. Looking at Zhao Huai in front of her, she finally remembered who he was.

No wonder he looked familiar. He was the owner of the pawnshop she bumped into earlier that day. It was such a coincidence that she was saved by him.

“Thank you to the shopkeeper and Doctor Yan. Today’s events were beyond my control, and I caused trouble for the both of you. My name is Lu Wanqiu, a disciple of the Immortal Yearning Sect, and I will repay you in the future.” Lu Wanqiu spoke with a sincere tone in her voice.

“Helping the injured and saving the dying is what I’m supposed to do, young lady. You’re too polite.” Yan Jing waved his hand and laughed. In fact, he was delighted in his heart, as it was not an easy thing to obtain the gratitude of a sect disciple.

“Could you briefly tell us what happened?” Zhao Huai couldn’t help but ask. In his mind, he still were wondering about the swirling black mist, which he felt must be a powerful demon.

“Yes, there’s still demonic qi within the young lady, it seems something troublesome has occurred,” added Yan Jing from the side.

Lu Wanqiu’s beautiful eyes dimmed as she sighed, “Have you heard of the

Blackwind Cave?”

Zhao Huai and Yan Jing exchanged looks before saying, “Of course, the notorious Blackwind Cave disappeared a hundred years ago, didn’t it?”

With a calm expression, Lu Wanqiu said, “A powerful demon has emerged and now calls itself Blackwind Granny. This demon is quite powerful and has committed evil deeds in the surrounding area, harming many people. I was ordered to descend the mountain and exterminate it.”

After listening, Zhao Huai thought for a moment and asked, “Young lady, are you not able to defeat that demon?”

Lu Wanqiu shook her head, “I am not a match for Blackwind Granny, but I didn’t expect that there would be other demons in Blackwind Cave. Some of them are quite powerful. I barely managed to kill a few of them but ended up severely injured myself, allowing Blackwind Granny to escape.”

Although her words seemed relaxed, Zhao Huai knew that such encounters were more dangerous than one could imagine.

Demons were difficult to deal with, like the cunning fox demon he encountered once. And there are even more difficult demons out there.

“Was it that black mist in the sky?” Zhao Huai inquired further.

She’s at the end of her strength and can only flee.”

Lu Wanqiu added, “I believe that the incident in Jingyang Town is also related to her.”

At this point, Zhao Huai voiced his confusion, ‘Why does Miss Lu say that

Jingyang Town suffered great casualties? I heard that the people of Jingyang

Town are alive and well.”

Lu Wanqiu exhaled and said calmly, “They have all been turned into demon’s puppets and became accomplices of the demons.”

“Demon’s puppet?”

It was the first time Zhao Huai had heard of such a term.

Lu Wanqiu explained, “There are three types of demons: demonic creatures, ghost and monsters, and devil creatures. Among them, the demon’s puppets are the weakest, belonging to the class of demonic creatures. They appear no different from ordinary humans, but their minds are no longer their own and they are bound to follow the orders of demons.”

It was also Zhao Huai’s first time hearing about these detailed classifications and individual categories.

“Who will deal with these minions of the demons?”

Lu Wanqiu looked deeply into his eyes and said, “The Immortal Yearning Sect will take action.”
