Hearing this, the old man let out a laugh. When he heard the call of the Taoist cultivators downstairs, he quickly echoed it, closed the door, and rushed downstairs.
Dongfang Qinlan looked up and said, "Sister, is the old man talking about that masked chivalrous man who has recently risen to fame in the Jianghu? I've heard that they do good deeds and eliminate evil without leaving their names. Compared with those people downstairs..."
Dongfang Qinlan gave a cold laugh, then rolled her eyes with a sideways glance of her mouth. "Their moral integrity truly deserves the title of great chivalrous man."
"You," Dongfang Huaizhu said helplessly, shaking her head. Just as she was about to get up, she suddenly heard a "rustling" sound by her ear. She knew in her heart that it must be the centipede demon coming. "Little sister, be careful."
"Something is approaching."
Having experienced a lifetime, she was clear about the subsequent plot, and she also remembered most of the previous plot. But what was the name of this centipede demon?
The sun was setting behind the western hills, and the clouds and mists were swirling.
The rustling wind made the candle flames flicker, covering up the faint sounds, which seemed like the chirping of insects or a large number of spiders emerging from their nests in an orderly manner.
Boom—
"Just in time!" The sword rose and fell, and the spider as big as a human figure was split in half. Poison gas spread from its corpse, making Shi Tang exclaim in dismay: "There's poison in it!"
Chi Huo raised his black eyes. "There are thirty in total." The raging flames coiled like a dragon and rushed towards the advancing spiders. After the fire died out, the poison gas became even stronger.
"Humph." The hurricane whirled the wooden beams, instantly destroying the restaurant. Everyone floated in the air. Shi Tang bowed to Ximen Chuisha and said with a smile, "Brother Ximen is truly brilliant. In this way, the poisonous smoke can't do anything to us."
Although the coiled hurricane could block the poison and the cultivators could hide in the wind, ordinary people had no way out. Dongfang Huaizhu, holding the old man, frowned slightly.
"Didn't you consider ordinary people?"
Ximen Chuisha's face tightened slightly, as if Dongfang Huaizhu had hit a sore spot. He began to defend himself. "Miss Dongfang, there are always sacrifices in battle."
"The wind can be divided into two directions to make a path so that ordinary people can break out of the encirclement and stay alive. But you didn't give it a single thought. Is this what the Taoist sect teaches?" Dongfang Huaizhu's eyes darkened slightly.
Ximen Chuisha didn't comment. "Retreat? Isn't that showing weakness to the demons? I, the Elegant Wind Lord, will never bow to the demons! If the miss wants to retreat, she may leave."
Just then, a broken wooden beam was whirled over by the hurricane, with a blood - red spider crawling on it. A large amount of poison gas spread from its tail eyes, making Dongfang Huaizhu suddenly widen her eyes and shout, "There are poisonous spiders hidden in the house pillars. Everyone, quickly use your skills to resist the demon poison!"
Hearing this, the three of them changed their expressions greatly and quickly used their skills to resist the demon poison, but it was already too late. Next, it should be the poisonous spider with multiple eyes that would appear, and then...
Dongfang Huaizhu gritted her back teeth. She had already put some medicine to resist the demon poison in the three people's tea when she went upstairs earlier, but it was of no use.
This damned plot! Dongfang Huaizhu cursed secretly. She gritted her teeth and raised her hand to form a spell. The raging flames surrounded her. She waved her fair hand, and a ball of fire landed on the three poisoned people, dispelling some of the poison gas.
"You're a smart girl, but it's a pity it's too late." A man's gloomy and hoarse voice gradually sounded. A demon with multiple eyes tore through the hurricane and walked in.
Oh my goodness! So it really looks like this!
With eight pairs of eyes on one face, it's really hard for his wife not to mind at all. She was infatuated with him and avenged him. This must be true love... Dongfang Huaizhu thought so.
"Sister, are you okay?" Dongfang Qinlan looked at her sister whose mouth was twitching in confusion, and then at the extremely ugly multi - eyed monster.
She turned around... and vomited.
Dongfang Huaizhu patted her little sister on the back and couldn't help but support her forehead. "Sir demon, could you please turn your face away? I have trypophobia. It makes me feel uncomfortable looking at it."
The Multi - eyed Monster's mouth twitched. Looking at the two sisters who were uncomfortable because of his appearance, a towering anger welled up in his heart. "You actually dare to dislike me for being ugly!"
Suddenly, he tore open his clothes. Dongfang Huaizhu quickly covered her eyes and covered Qinlan's eyes with the other hand. "Brother demon, if your wife knows you're being such a hooligan, she might make you kneel on the washboard!"
The Multi - eyed Monster's movement froze. He seemed to be thinking about the truth of Dongfang Huaizhu's words. Just then, Shi Tang dispelled the demon poison, summoned his long sword, and stabbed at the Multi - eyed Monster. The Multi - eyed Monster quickly dodged and glared angrily.
"So you were just stalling for time! Fine, today I'll definitely let you see my power!"
He threw off his clothes, and the eyes all over his body lit up. The blinding light made everyone unable to see the direction. Just then, a strong wind blew up and separated the two sisters. Only her little sister's cry was left: "Sister!"
This gust of wind blew in an unknown direction, carrying Dongfang Huaizhu far away. Before she fell into a coma, she secretly gave the middle finger. This damned plot!
—
The sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. The clouds were like brocade.
High above the boundless void, a man was flying on his sword. His white clothes fluttered, and his black hair danced in the wind. He was looking extremely free and easy when a gust of wild wind howled towards him. He dodged sideways just in time, but was then hit by a soft and fragrant body.
He looked blankly at the thing that had fallen from the sky. It was actually a charming young girl. The girl's skin was as white as snow, her face was extremely beautiful, and a faint fragrance wafted from her body, making one's heart beat faster.
The gentle breeze blew, and the fragrance of the girl assailed his nostrils. Wangquan Baye's handsome face blushed, and his hand that was holding Dongfang Huaizhu trembled, as if he had caught a hot potato.
He called out softly, "Miss?"
But he saw her frown for no reason, and her mouth murmured the word "Qinlan". He looked at the place in the distance where the demonic aura was soaring into the sky. He knew in his heart that she must have been injured by the demons. He flew down from the clouds on his sword, placed Dongfang Huaizhu on the lawn, and then lifted his foot and was about to leave.
But then he stopped and stayed. "If you're captured by the demons again... Forget it. I'll just wait for you to wake up here."
He jumped onto the treetop and quietly watched the person under the tree.
The sunlight shone through the green leaves, leaving dots of starlight on Dongfang Huaizhu's face. Along with the gentle breeze, a few green leaves fell.
They scattered on her long hair that was spread on the ground, forming an extremely beautiful picture, which made the person watching from the treetop suddenly feel his heart beating faster. He quickly turned around and silently recited the mental method.
"Um."
Dongfang Huaizhu slowly opened her eyes, but was stabbed by the glaring light and couldn't open them. She stretched out her hand to block the light and sat up from the ground in a daze.
She looked at her own hands, and her mouth moved slightly. "Have I escaped the plot?" Just then, a voice sounded, like a thunderbolt on a clear day.
"Hello, miss."
Dongfang Huaizhu secretly gave the middle finger. This damned irreversible plot! It was true that she liked Wangquan Baye, but it was just the love of a fan for a character.
Don't think that just because she experienced the past with Wangquan Baye this time, she would fall in love with him! She definitely wouldn't... Well, she was proven wrong.
"Pfft." Dongfang Huaizhu couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw the man standing on the treetop in a chivalrous pose but wearing an extremely cute mask. "You..."
This man is truly adorable.
