Chapter 244 The Little Taoist Priest and the Peach Blossom Demon 1
Chapter 244 The Little Taoist Priest and the Peach Blossom Demon 1
After Jiang Yueshu woke up in the system space, she quickly took on the next task.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a peach forest filled with the fragrance of flowers. The sky and the earth were clearly distinguished, and the whole scene was as beautiful as a painting.
Just by being in it, one can think of the four words "outstanding people and beautiful scenery", and always feel that there is a thin spiritual energy filling the space.
Jiang Yueshu was about to look at her surroundings curiously, but with a sudden movement she realized that she had no body at all. Looking down she could only see the trunk of the peach tree buried in the soil.
System, what's going on? Nothing's going to go wrong, right?
Jiang Yueshu asked silently in her heart.
The system coughed and said, "Host, there is no problem. The soul of the original owner of this world will also follow, but the original owner's body is Taohua. When the tasker comes, it will be like two souls in one body."
Jiang Yueshu understood a little, but the specific situation would have to wait and see.
"Host, I am now transmitting your memories and plot to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of memories slowly appeared in Jiang Yueshu's mind.
Jiang Yueshu closed her soul's eyes slightly, feeling the memory, and couldn't help frowning.
The world they were in this time belonged to the world of cultivating immortals, where humans, demons, and monsters coexisted. Among humans, there were ordinary humans and cultivators who were qualified to cultivate.
But among the huge number of humans, only a very small number have the talent to practice cultivation.
As for the original owner, he was a peach blossom demon who absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon in the mountains and transformed. In the demon world, he was just a weak demon with a very low status and was slaughtered by demons at will.
There was a big demon causing chaos in the human world. Seeing the beauty and the unique power of the peach blossom demon to confuse the mind, it forced the original owner and several peach blossom demon sisters to seduce the human race. The original owner had no choice but to go to the brothel in the human world.
It happened that the Taoist practitioners of Qingyun Sect went down the mountain for training, and they encountered this incident of civilians being killed. Those Taoist practitioners took it as their responsibility to subdue demons and protect the people, so they naturally intervened. During the fight between the two sides, the big demon was defeated by the Taoist practitioners, and at the critical moment, it used a secret method to escape.
The remaining little demons had weak demonic power and were no match for the Taoists at all. So when the two sides started fighting, they didn't even dare to run away, for fear of being affected and injured by their power.
After the big monster escaped, they naturally fell into the hands of Taoist priests.
The Qingyun Sect where several Taoist practitioners are located is the most famous one among the three sects and one school in the world of cultivation. Two of the three people who went down the mountain to train this time are the latest disciples accepted by the leader of the Qingyun Sect, one male and one female, Fang Yan and Xiyue, together with their senior brother Xia Xingyu who protects them.
Listening to the conversation between the few people, the "original owner" also knew that the spoiled girl named Xiyue was the sixth disciple newly accepted by the leader of Qingyun Sect, and Fang Yan was the fifth disciple of the leader of Qingyun Sect.
But the girl seemed to dislike these little demons and wanted to kill them all. When the little demons heard this, they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, saying that they were forced and had never harmed anyone.
But the girl didn't care and kept acting coquettishly in front of the two brothers, saying that they were monsters that were causing great harm to people and that several murders had already occurred, and that they must not be let off.
When Xia Xingyu heard this, he wanted to kill these little monsters directly, but Fang Yan stopped him at this time.
He believed that the evil aura of these little demons did not have any bloody smell, and it seemed that they had never harmed anyone as they said, so their crimes did not deserve the death penalty, so he hoped to let them go.
Xiyue disagreed. After the two argued for a while, Xiyue reluctantly agreed.
Because of Fang Yan, the original owner escaped a disaster and was extremely grateful to this Taoist who had compassion for all living beings.
Just when everyone thought that the man and the demon would never see each other again, about a year later, the Peach Blossom Demon met the injured Fang Yan while wandering outside.
When she saw that it was the person who once saved her life, the Peach Blossom Demon naturally did not dare to delay, so she quickly dragged him to a safe place to help him heal his injuries. That's how the two got to know each other.
The peach blossom demon had no name, and during the time when the young Taoist priest was recuperating from his injuries, he named her "Tao Shu", and the two of them got along quite happily together.
After recovering from his injuries, the young Taoist priest and "Tao Shu" also said goodbye.
When the two met again, they happened to see the "Peach Demon" being chased by other big demons. The young Taoist recognized her and rescued her in time.
After being saved twice and spending time together every day, the Peach Blossom Demon naturally fell in love with this little Taoist priest.
But she knew herself well and understood that humans and demons were on different paths, and that she and the little Taoist priest could never be together, so she only dared to follow him secretly and watch him in secret.
The young Taoist priest had considerable magical powers, so he naturally noticed that she was following him. After leading her out, he expressed his feelings to her. It turned out that the young Taoist priest also fell in love with the Peach Blossom Demon.
After the two of them talked it out, they agreed to travel around the world together, slaying demons and eliminating evil, and having a great time.
Until one day, Fang Yan suddenly received a message from the sect, saying that there was something going on in the sect and he needed to return immediately.
Fang Yan grew up in Qingyun Sect and had deep feelings for everything in the sect. Naturally, he returned to the sect first after saying goodbye to "Tao Shu".
He also told Tao Shu that when he returned to the sect this time, he would inform his master about their relationship, and then he would come to pick her up to the mountain.
Although marriage between humans and demons was extremely rare, it did exist at that time.
After Fang Yan left, "Tao Shu" returned to her home, where she counted the days by counting the days, waiting for Fang Yan's return.
But she waited and waited, but Fang Yan never came back.
Because Fang Yan had sent a message to "Tao Shu" when he first arrived at the sect. According to his personality, he would definitely inform her in advance if he went down the mountain. But it has been so long and she has not received any news.
"Tao Shu" was a little worried, so she secretly ran to the foot of Qingshan Sect Mountain to see. She waited there for a long time, but did not see Fang Yan.
She didn’t know if it was because of her identity as a demon that Fang Yan escaped from the battlefield, or if something happened to him?
"Tao Shu" had no choice but to slowly inquire about Fang Yan's whereabouts.
Later, she did find out some news, but it was that "Fang Yan" had betrayed his master, murdered the human race, and had become a demon.
"Tao Shu" didn't believe what they said at all. The little Taoist priest was so kind and cared about all living beings. He even let go of a little demon like her. How could he become a big devil despised by everyone?
No, it must not be like this, she must find the little Taoist priest!
When Tao Shu finally found the young Taoist priest after going through untold hardships, he had completely lost his former high-spirited look. He was completely gray, his clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and he looked extremely depressed.
At that time, he was sitting in meditation with a frown on his face and a painful expression. Looking closely, cold sweat was oozing from Fang Yan's forehead, his aura was unstable, and a few wisps of demonic energy floated by from time to time.
Looking at the leaked demonic energy, "Tao Shu" couldn't help but feel distressed.
What on earth had that once handsome, gentle and charming young man gone through to become like this?
She slowly walked to Fang Yan's side, but touched the restriction when she was not far from him. A formation with golden light appeared with Fang Yan as the center.
"Tao Shu" didn't know what kind of formation it was, but looking at Fang Yan's painful expression, she guessed that there was something wrong with the formation.
She immediately used her demonic power to destroy the formation, but the moment her demonic power touched the formation, the golden light of the formation flashed again.
After a while, two hurried footsteps appeared behind her. They were Xiyue and Xia Xingyu, whom she had met once that year.
"Tao Shu" recognized the identities of the two men, and thinking of their fellow-disciple friendship, he quickly asked them for help in breaking the formation.
As a result, Xia Xingyu changed his image of a dignified and loving senior brother in front of others and spoke in a sinister tone.
"Fang Yan is nothing but a traitor. He has been possessed by the devil, so he deserves to die in the formation. Don't you agree, Junior Sister?"
Xiyue's face looked a little ugly, but she didn't say anything.
"Tao Shu" begged several times, but the two remained unmoved. Xia Xingyu even waved his sleeves and directly threw a stream of spiritual power at "Tao Shu".
"Tao Shu" couldn't resist Xia Xingyu's spiritual power at all, and his body fell directly onto a pile of rocks not far away, spitting blood from his mouth.
But seeing that the situation inside the formation was getting uglier and uglier, and Fang Yan's face was almost turning black, she endured the serious injuries and walked to the front of the formation, continuing to bombard the formation with weak spiritual energy.
Xia Xingyu and Xiyue watched with great interest. Not sure if it was because she couldn't bear to see it or for some other reason, Xiyue suddenly spoke up.
"Brother, he's already like this, why not let him go!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the air instantly became silent, leaving only the slight sound of "Tao Shu" vomiting blood.
"What did you say? Why, do you like him so much? He's already like this, and you still like him!"
Xia Xingyu hugged the trembling Xiyue tightly with a crazy look. He controlled Xiyue's head and forced her to look at Fang Yan, whose condition was getting worse and worse in the formation.
"Tell me, tell me now, do you still like him? If you dare to say the wrong thing, I will kill him immediately!"
As soon as these words came out, "Tao Shu", who had been adjusting her breath and transmitting spiritual energy, suddenly stopped. She stared at Xia Xingyu hesitantly.
Xia Xingyu seemed to be completely unconcerned about her gaze. Sharp ice cones had already condensed on his hands and were aimed at Fang Yan in the formation.
He stared at Xiyue, as if the ice cone would fly out immediately if she said something wrong.
Xiyue's silence stimulated Xia Xingyu to become even more crazy. He hugged Xiyue tightly with one hand and spoke in a cruel tone.
"Junior sister, you are already mine, how can you say such things in front of me? I want you to sever your relationship with Fang Yan in front of me today and never see him again for the rest of your life, otherwise he doesn't need to live in this world anymore!"
"Tao Shu" was listening anxiously. In her anxiety, she stood in front of Fang Yan and faced the ice cones directly.
She looked at Xiyue with pleading eyes, hoping that she would do as Xia Xingyu said and break off all ties with Fang Yan.
Among the three present, Xia Xingyu's cultivation is the highest. If he insists on taking action, the others will not be able to stop him.
So "Tao Shu" could only place her hopes on Xiyue. After all, she was the only one who wanted to let Fang Yan go.
But Xiyue remained stubbornly silent, with her eyes lowered.
"Tao Shu" became anxious and quickly asked the two for help.
"Masters, I can do it. I can take him away from you. I just ask you to help me release him. Thank you..."
As soon as these words came out, Xiyue's silence came to an abrupt end. "Tao Shu" could clearly see that an extremely strong emotion suddenly emerged in her eyes, and it looked like... she was resenting her.
She looked again at Tao Shu's action of protecting Fang Yan tightly behind her, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she stared at her with vicious eyes.
Then "Tao Shu" saw that when Xiyue looked up again, she looked extremely sad.
The tears in her eyes were shaky, and she shook her head secretly at Xia Xingyu, "Brother, but he is our fellow disciple!"
The next moment, there was a "bang" sound, and "Tao Shu" fell heavily on the formation barrier behind him, with several ice cones piercing his chest and a stream of blood spurting out of his mouth.
She adjusted her position almost with a trembling body, preparing to continue to block Xia Xingyu's other attack, but she didn't hold out much hope in her heart, because she had just endured two attacks from Xia Xingyu with great anger, and she was already at the end of her strength.
She took one last look at Fang Yan in the formation, and suddenly tasted a hint of sweetness amidst the intense pain.
If she could die in front of the little Taoist priest and block the attack for him, it would be the fulfillment of her last wish.
After all, Brother Fang has never betrayed his friends, so that's enough.
"Tao Shu" tried hard to mobilize the remaining spiritual energy in his body with the intention of dying, but at this moment he heard Xiyue's voice.
"Okay, I promise you, I will cut off all ties with Fang Yan from now on!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual energy surging from Xia Xingyu's fingertips suddenly dissipated, and he looked at Xiyue with great joy.
"Junior sister, since you said so, then I believe you. Fang Yan won't live long anyway, so what's wrong with letting him go?"
Tao Shu's heart skipped a beat. What does that mean?
She wanted to ask, but as soon as she opened her mouth she spat out large amounts of blood.
"Senior Brother, I want to say a few words to this little demon?" Xiyue's gentle and delicate voice suddenly sounded.
Xia Xingyu looked at "Tao Shu" suspiciously, thinking that she would not live long, and thought that nothing would happen to her, so he moved away.
As soon as Xia Xingyu left, Tao Shu couldn't wait to speak, trying to hold back the blood that was about to burst out, and asked weakly, "Why... can't he... live long?"
Xiyue's eyes became increasingly colder as she looked at the peach blossom demon with bloodstains on her face with disgust.
"Of course it's because of you, a demon. How can you be liked by my senior brother? You are just a demon, not even a human, and you dare to defile my senior brother like this!"
"When I first saw you that year, I felt that your looks and charming spells were a threat, but my senior brother was kind enough to let you live. You actually dared to seduce my senior brother, you really deserve to die!"
Xiyue stepped hard on "Taoshu" so that "Taoshu" could not even move. Blood was flowing from the corners of "Taoshu"'s mouth and his eyes were confused and puzzled, which seemed to have angered Xiyue again.
