The Journey of a Passerby's Elder Brother Being Courted by Feng Ao Tia

".....Huh?"

Lin Yuhe was a bit stunned when she saw this scene. But after hearing Shen Mu's teasing of her, she immediately snapped back to her senses.

She retorted stubbornly, "I didn't use cheats! Don't slander me..."

Well, she just used them a few times...

"Heh... You know in your heart whether you used them or not."

Shen Mu let out two light chuckles and shrugged his shoulders. Then he walked towards the red-clothed loli who was lying unconscious in the shallow pit and squatted down halfway to carefully check on her injuries.

Fortunately, the corpse ghost was a miser when it was alive and had a strong obsession with treasures. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have escaped the fate of being swallowed by it this time.

"Who is she?" Lin Yuhe also came to the side of the shallow pit, looked at the unfamiliar young and tender face, and asked curiously.

"It's obvious that you're not someone who pays much attention to details."

Shen Mu slightly pulled aside her collar, revealing the still-developing delicate collarbone skin of this little loli.

At the same time, the bright red rose mark engraved under the collarbone position could also be clearly seen.

Just as I thought...

"Her clothes are mainly red in color, with dark red rose elements printed on them. Combined with the bright red rose mark on her collarbone."

"Obviously, she's from the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, and her status isn't low either."

In fact, when Shen Mu saw the rose mark on the little girl's collarbone, he could already determine her true identity.

This little girl's status was more than just not low...

She was the daughter of the leader of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, the future saintess of the demon sect, Ye Mingxue.

At the same time, she was also the witch that the male lead managed to max out the favorability with in the late stage of the story and successfully took into his harem.

She was a big troublemaker and a variable that was difficult for Shen Mu to deal with.

"Blood Spirit Demon Sect..."

Reminded by Shen Mu, Lin Yuhe also had a flash of inspiration and immediately remembered the information about this demonic sect.

"I remember now. This sect is a first-class force among the demonic paths, right?"

"Yeah. I just don't know what this little girl's purpose is for coming here. If she's just traveling around without any other intentions, then it'll be easy to handle."

"If she has other intentions..."

Shen Mu couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

After all, the Wind Spirit Immortal Sect he belonged to was a righteous force and had always been at odds with demonic sects like the Blood Spirit Demon Sect.

If he wanted to let her go, he didn't know if she had any other special purposes for coming here.

If the Blood Spirit Demon Sect suddenly made trouble later, he would probably be labeled as colluding with demonic forces.

If he didn't let her go, considering the little girl's special status in the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, it would trigger an unnecessary conflict between the righteous and demonic paths and make some things happen earlier.

And he would most likely be caught in the center of the conflict vortex, unable to extricate himself, and be secretly eliminated by some big shot as a "sacrifice" when the conflict broke out.

Truly, there was no good outcome either way.

"What? If she has other intentions, are you planning to tie her up and take her back to the sect to claim credit?" Lin Yuhe gave him a look that seemed to say "I've seen through your thoughts".

"Get lost. Do you think I'm like you? I don't want to attract too much attention from the big shots." Shen Mu immediately replied in an annoyed tone.

As a "Three-Nothing" cultivator at his level (Three-Nothing: no background, no strength, no talent), attracting too much attention from any big shot in this kind of matter was not a good thing for him.

Wait!

If he used another identity to face this little girl, wouldn't everything have nothing to do with his real self?

Shen Mu suddenly got inspired by some plots in novels and came up with a relatively reliable solution.

However...

If he really did this, then the key to the problem would shift to Lin Yuhe.

Shen Mu turned his gaze and looked at Lin Yuhe seriously, "By the way, did you show your true face in front of her?"

"No, when I arrived, she was already lying in that pit."

Lin Yuhe also seemed to think of something and raised her eyebrows at him playfully, "Oh~, are you planning to use a new identity to deal with this little demon sect girl?"

"Your mind works pretty fast. You must have read a lot of online novels, right?"

"There's nothing I can do. Usually, I'm quite bored when I'm alone. I can only read novels, watch videos... play games, and occasionally chat in groups to kill time."

Recalling her uneventful life in the original world, Lin Yuhe just felt it was rather dull.

"So you were a homebody." Shen Mu could pretty much imagine what she was usually like when he heard that she didn't have much social life outside in that world.

"What? Do you have a problem with me being a homebody?" Lin Yuhe gave Shen Mu a "friendly" expression, but there was a hint of displeasure in her tone.

Seeing this situation, Shen Mu slightly raised his eyebrows and silently stood up. "No, it's quite good. At least you won't take the initiative to cause trouble. It's very suitable for the path of immortal cultivation."

"Humph~"

Lin Yuhe snorted softly, barely satisfied with his cautious answer.

"Let's get back to the topic. Since you understand what I meant just now, then please stay away later. Don't let her sense your presence."

"After all, people from the demonic path are always quite sensitive to cultivators from our righteous forces."

"..."

Lin Yuhe stood up and looked at the little demon sect loli below for a moment. The corners of her lips gradually pursed, and her heart was filled with the urge to stir up some trouble.

If I don't cause more trouble at a time like this, how can I completely change my fate?

Moreover...

This can also make the story a bit more interesting.

"How about... I also create a new identity?"

"Huh?"

...

Half an hour later.

"Hmm... Hmm..."

Ye Mingxue let out a soft hum from her nose, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her blood-red eyes gradually opened in a daze...

"Where is this..." She looked at the cloudless blue sky and listened to the sound of flowing water in her ears, with a bit of confusion and bewilderment in her eyes.

"Outside Lingjue Village."

A cold and steady male voice suddenly rang out, making Ye Mingxue quickly turn her gaze towards the source of the voice...

She saw a man in black clothes with a black gauze hat on his head, folding his arms and leaning against the shade of a giant tree, not revealing the slightest bit of his realm's aura, looking very mysterious.

"...May I ask who you are?"

Unable to sense the slightest bit of cultivation aura from the other party, Ye Mingxue, who was lying on the bluestone, didn't dare to be careless and asked cautiously.

"..."

The man with the hat didn't answer and just continued to quietly lean against the shade of the tree.

"You're always so pretentious. Don't scare her."

Accompanied by the clear and ethereal female voice that was getting closer, a woman in a white dress as white as snow and wearing a white gauze hat walked out slowly from beside a small stream...

Each step she took was natural and graceful, very much like a noble lady.

Shen Mu under the hat glanced at her elegant walking posture that was completely different from usual and secretly complained in his heart: Humph, I think you're even better at pretending than I am.

"His name is Yan Xiao. He's a rogue cultivator traveling with me."

"Not long ago, we just happened to pass by this place, found that there were ghosts causing chaos and hurting people, so we took care of them and rescued you."
