I could think of was that clear voice whispering in my ear: "Xiao Qiao, my wife..."Jiang Qiyun...Qiyun...If you truly feel compassion, you shouldn't have let me fall in love with you. It only adds t...Chaos is demon, malicious Qi is abundant and become demon, monster being refined into demon, cultivator enters evil and becomes demon...

The Taoists view demons as one aspect of the immortal path. All difficulties, dangers, temptations, and sufferings can be called demons.

My understanding of these things is pitiful. The only chaos I've ever seen is the product of generations of desire from the Situ family: the Corpse Demon.

But Chongmo clearly knows me much better.

He glanced at my hand out of the corner of his eye. Two hideous little creatures squatted on my wrist, ready to bite with a snap if I moved my fingers.

“Ha… You practitioners, with so many divine records, wanting to summon your revered deities, ancestors, and celestial legions… all require incantations and scriptures. I've observed you a few times, and you are different from others. You secretly perform incantations and silently recite sacred texts…”

"Hehehe, if I wasn't afraid you'd die from the pain, I'd break all your fingers first and see how you beg for mercy!"

I did not move rashly, although now I don't need to loudly recite various mantras and sutras, the corresponding hand gestures are still important.

Asking for medical treatment, exorcism, talisman writing, reciting sutras and incantations, walking in formations, setting up altars, summoning deities, refining spirits to ward off disasters, etc., all require the use of "pinch-counting" (jiǎo jì).

I've gotten my basic single-hand techniques down to lightning speed, but even that isn't fast enough for these beasts.

Ame wasn't even able to scream before being swallowed whole.

Thinking of the two little devils who were swallowed, tears welled up in my eyes again.

"Snort," said Mo'er, scoffing. "Crying again I don't get it, what's there to cry about... I'm stronger than you, just obey me obediently. Anyway~~ I can only scare you a little."

Really This guy is so hard to figure out.

"...then why did you bring me here What do you want to do"

He grinned, his crimson eyes reflecting the flickering candlelight: "We just want to know, why can a great deity like Beitaidi travel between yin and yang so freely..."

"He's a deity from the underworld. Is it strange that he can come to the human world Besides, his power when he's in the human world is said to be less than one-tenth of what it is," I answered honestly.

"Chong Mo let out a mocking laugh: "Less than one-tenth You know what kind of power a divine being of his level should possess One-tenth is already very strong. At the very least, I wouldn't dare to provoke him."

You caught me, and you said you wouldn't provoke him on your own

In television dramas, villains are always killed by talking too much. If you keep chatting with me, you might just end up getting boxed lunch.

The moment the thought came to him, the flame of the half-burned candle on the table suddenly flickered.

With a soft "poof," the flame went out.

Darkness surrounded us, and Chong Mo beside me let go of my hand.

“Time is up…” He knelt beside me, speaking into the darkness. “My lord, the Wheel of Rebirth hasn’t been found yet, but I’ve caught this woman. As long as she can’t chant her incantations, she won’t be able to escape… Besides, most of the scenery outside has already melted away. Before dawn, our presence shouldn’t be leaked.”

In the stifling darkness, no one answered him. I could see nothing, only a faint feeling of air swirling beside me—as if falling into a vortex-like void.

A frigid breath snaked across the uneven, timeworn stones.

It was as if black cloth had risen from thin air, blurring the darkness before my eyes.

His unpredictable moods had begun again. He suddenly reached out and grabbed my throat, one hand clamping down on my wrists, twisting them behind my back, and lifting me up.

My wrist was twisted with excruciating pain, contorted into a posture of vulnerability, like an animal awaiting slaughter.

In the darkness behind the offering table, wisps of black mist surged forth. The mist was as sharp as ice, scraping against the skin with a fine, relentless edge.

"…"Chong Mo muttered to himself, looking at me. "Doesn't it still not work" He paused. "Your blood has already been dropped onto our artifacts twice… If the talisman paper was written by mortals and had no magic power, then that pendant could allow the esteemed one to gather magical energy in the mortal world. How could the Blood Pact be ineffective"

"I... I and the Celestial Emperor... belong to a special case... I don't have any ability to open a channel..." I strained to say.

This guy is squeezing my neck so hard, I can barely breathe.

Chongmo tilted his head, looking unconvinced: "Impossible, his magic can cross realms without affecting the balance, we can too!"

He hesitated for a moment, muttering to himself, "Could it be that marriage is necessary Or... having children..."

I gave him a terrified look.

He let out a sinister smile.

When Jiang Qiyun first appeared before me, his form was also somewhat hazy. When the seven days of entanglement and spiritual conception were over, blood clots gathered on the Chi Long Blood Jade Ring. Only then did his figure become clear and distinct, just like any living person.

If others were to do this to me, I'd rather be swallowed whole by that terrifying maw.

"Want to die" Chongmo whispered in my ear.

"With a twisting of my wrist, I discreetly formed the hand seal. "

This is too hard, I stammered, trying to distract him with my voice—

"We... call what you're doing, thuggery, bullying, the scum of the earth..."

He’s so tsundere and arrogant, he should retort, right

Who knows, he grinned with a menacing smile and said: “But we call following the strong being wise, it's the only way to survive.”

"... I'm not afraid to die," I stared at him.

His blood-red eyes were inches from mine: "Heh, do you think you can die Am I so merciful"

As he spoke, his breath grew closer.

What do you want to do What are you going to do I'm a little scared.

In my heart, I silently recited the incantation, but the dangerous aura around me had already licked at my skin. My mind was distracted, my finger movements scattered, and I could only instinctively dodge.

That breath sent shivers down my spine, and goosebumps erupted all over me.

His teeth, resting on the side of my neck.

I had already tensed my body, preparing to resist with all my might. Even if that giant mouth appeared, I would fight back by chanting incantations.

Who knew he retreated back again.

"Hahaha... woman, look at your stupid face! What Do you want me to bite you Or are you ready for me to rip your clothes off" he grinned wickedly.

Why is he laughing!

I was frozen in fear, completely clueless about this fellow's intentions!

“You’re really amusing, hahaha. We powerful beings are all confined by the boundaries and can't come out. We can only inhabit those with markings. If we want to come out, we can only open the markings on them… and these markings can only be opened once. Once opened, the person dies. Sigh~~ I finally got a good body to use, I don't want to ruin it…”

He hesitated for a moment, then grinned wickedly and said: "This person's body should also be able to copulate, but... what's the use of me copulating with you using a human body Hahahaha, are you stupid Looking at your weak appearance, I have no interest at all!"

I don't know whether to cry or laugh, this guy is truly, truly... too despicable!

Ever-changing moods, truly ever-changing moods.

He had just finished laughing when he slammed my face into the ground, gritting his teeth with a sinister grin: "Well~~ sometimes, we leave a bloodline mark on people who have grown accustomed to the dark energy of the world, hehehe..." ones."" ...Don't get into trouble again. It doesn't matter if Fatty Yang wins, but with this continuous doubling, exceeding 300,000 we have to report it upstairs..." Ma Zi mumbled in a low voice.Howe...
