Chapter 42
"Is that all?"
Gu Cheng sat up from the bed with a dark face, feeling very dissatisfied with the benefits of this soul afterimage.
This pitfall fox is really a pitfall.
As for the skills of seducing married women, it's needless to say, he is a complete waste.
With his appearance, is it necessary to take the initiative to seduce? He is lucky that he can resist being seduced!
The formation secrets of the fox demon clan sounded good, but in the end he couldn't learn them at all.
The only useful thing was the information about his two sisters.
"Alas, it seems that everything has two sides. Although killing demons can give more life, the soul afterimages that explode are usually useless."
"Although killing evil cultivators can give less life, the soul afterimages of evil cultivators are obviously more valuable. Learning is a profit."
"Even the most inconspicuous cooking skills can be put to good use. At least the dishes cooked with them are really delicious..."
Gu Cheng sighed quietly and began to carefully sort out the information he had gained from the fox demon's soul.
Not long after, he extracted the key information.
It turned out that this three-tailed fox demon and his two sisters came from a well-known fox demon family in Yunzhou.
This time, he came to Changle County because he was commissioned by a mysterious person to help arrange the defense formation and teach the secret art of painted skin to the two demon tribes in Black Wind Mountain.
"Oh? So, the Pig Demon Master and Blood Fang's Painted Skin Secret Art were all taught by his two sisters?"
Gu Cheng suddenly realized.
It makes sense. As a small border area, Changle County is very closed to information.
Not only are the local people generally ignorant.
Even the demons on the mountain are also a bunch of country bumpkins who have never seen the world.
For magic like the Painted Skin Secret Art, the pig demons and wolf demons probably have never heard of it before.
"So... this "mysterious person" who asked the fox demon to come for off-site assistance must be the remnant of the "Rebirth Religion"?"
Combined with Xu Nianxue's previous analysis, Gu Cheng immediately realized this.
It's a pity that this three-tailed fox demon is just here to make up the numbers and doesn't know more details.
Gu Cheng also couldn't tell from its soul afterimage what the cult members and demons were planning.
But he was too lazy to think so much.
No matter what conspiracy he had, just kill them all with one knife!
There was no time to lose.
While the two female foxes were still unaware, their precious brother was already dead.
He had to leave as soon as possible, go to the hiding place of the fox demon, and reunite the three siblings!
After figuring out the connection.
Gu Cheng changed into a black dress and walked out of the room in a hurry.
Xu Nianxue was standing at the door, and was slightly startled when she saw the young man was going on a long journey again.
"Aren't you done with your work yet? You're going out again... Then what should I do with my food today?"
Miss Xu asked pitifully with a downcast face.
After these days of feeding, the girl's mouth had been completely spoiled by her "owner".
"Sorry, I have something urgent to do, you just have to make do with it today."
Gu Cheng apologized, and then suddenly thought of something.
He took out an exquisite food box from the storage bag and handed it to Xu Nianxue.
"This is my midnight snack last night. I haven't touched it yet. If you don't mind, use this to fill your stomach first."
"When I come back, I will make it up to you later..."
After saying that, Gu Cheng left in a hurry without waiting for the girl's reaction.
Watching the young man walk away.
Xu Nianxue withdrew her gaze from the back of her "owner", shook her head gently, and sighed:
"Alas~ What a busy man, is the work of the Demon Suppression Division so busy?"
"If the people of the Demon Suppression Division are as dedicated as he is.
It is estimated that in a few years, the demons in the Great Yan Territory should be killed, right?"
After secretly sighing.
Xu Nianxue walked back to her room, put the food box on the table, and gently opened the lid.
After seeing the dishes inside, she was slightly startled.
Sea cucumber glutinous rice porridge, charcoal grilled kidneys, old hen stewed with oysters, wolfberry ginseng venison soup...
All of them are "tonic" dishes!
If ordinary people eat all of these things in one meal, they will probably have a nosebleed on the spot!
"He actually eats these for supper at night? Is it so nutritious?"
Xu Nianxue blinked her eyes, with a strange expression on her face.
But thinking that warriors have different diets due to different cultivation methods, she was soon relieved.
She had been hungry for a whole morning and was already starving.
Seeing that this was the food fed by Gu Cheng, she subconsciously let down all her guard.
She immediately picked up the chopsticks, and started to eat heartily...
-----------------
I don't know when it started.
At the foot of the Black Wind Mountain, a small courtyard suddenly appeared.
The area of this small courtyard is not large, but the interior decoration is very exquisite. It can be seen that it was designed by a master himself.
There is a pavilion in the small courtyard. Two young and beautiful women sit opposite each other, quietly drinking tea and enjoying the scenery.
One of the women is dressed in white, with a face like peach blossoms, a hot body, and a plump waist.
A pair of charming peach blossom eyes is very charming, just like a little goblin who can seduce people's souls.
The other woman is dressed in yellow, with skin as white as snow and beautiful as a flower.
But sitting together with the woman in white, she is a little eclipsed in an instant.
After a cup of tea.
The woman in yellow put down her teacup and spoke first:
"Sister, how long are we going to stay here? This broken place is so boring, there is not even a place to have fun..."
"Be patient, sister, it won't take long."
The woman in white looked up at her sister and comforted her softly:
"The arrangement of that "old thing" is almost finished.
When his plan is officially implemented, someone will come to notify us. Now we just need to wait patiently."
When the so-called "plan" was mentioned, the woman in white couldn't help but sneered, and then said:
"Hehe, everyone says that my demon race is cruel by nature, insidious and cunning, and chooses people to devour.
But in my opinion, if it really comes to the ability to harm people, they are the most proficient in it!"
"Yes, even if our demon race fights internally, it is just a dispute between different races, not as crazy as their human race..."
The woman in yellow nodded in agreement.
Then, as if she suddenly thought of something, she turned her eyes to her sister.
"Big sister, I heard from my younger brother before that there is a female centurion named Lin in the Demon Suppression Division branch in the county. She is beautiful and charming, and is not inferior to the [Saint] in our family." "When the time comes, when the old man's plan starts to be implemented, why don't we take advantage of the situation and take down the centurion Lin, so that I can change my sister into a beautiful body?" The woman in yellow suggested excitedly. It can be seen that she is very dissatisfied with her current body, which is inferior to her sister's. "Hmph, I advise you to be honest..."
The woman in white refused without hesitation, and then explained:
"You don't have to do this. When the old man's plan is completed, we can all enter the [Inheritance Secret Realm] of the Rebirth Religion."
"With the help of the rare treasures in the secret realm, we will definitely be able to enter the innate realm within three years!"
"As long as our fox demon clan grows a fourth tail, we can transform into a human form by ourselves.
Why bother to use other people's skin to perform the secret art of painting skin?"
"..."
After hearing this, the woman in yellow curled her lips in disapproval, obviously not convinced by her sister's statement.
In her opinion, the elder sister must be jealous and reluctant to let her younger sister become more beautiful than herself, so she found this excuse to perfunctory her.
In addition, this matter itself sounds unreliable.
That old thing can kill even his own people for his own selfish desires.
If he really achieved his goal, would he really fulfill his initial promise afterwards?
Thinking of this, the woman in yellow couldn't help but feel a little worried.
