Two men knocked on the door.

  One of them saw that the girl who opened the door was pretty and started sizing her up. His tone was frivolous as he said, “Little girl, did you see anything just now?”


  Ming Shu smiled as she raised her eyebrows. “Rubbish like you two?”


  They didn’t know what rubbish meant, but they could tell that she was provoking them.

  The little girl didn’t look like she was a cultivator. However, her red dress……

  The man that was taller grabbed the other man. “We have no other intentions. We just want to know if you have seen anything strange. There are demons in the city recently so we are worried about everyone’s safety too.

  “Oh.”


  The taller man scanned the room behind her. “Can you let us in?”


  “Let you into the room?” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “I’m a girl. Are you two trying to molest me?”


  The shorter man looked flippant but the taller man was clear-headed. “Miss, we don’t mean that……”


  “Get away!”


  “Little girl, don’t force us to be harsh with you……”


  The taller man flew out of the corridor and fell over the railings. The customers below screamed in shock.

  Ming Shu retracted her leg and smiled at the shorter man. “Do you want me to send you off too?”


  The shorter man felt a chill running down his spine. His legs started shaking. He immediately turned and ran down the stairs.

  Ming Shu walked out of her room and looked down. “These two people wanted to molest me. Boss, look for them for compensation.”


  The two men were stopped by the boss of the inn. Ming Shu was standing there so they didn’t dare to not hand over the money.

  They paid the money and left in a flurry……

  The man in black sat up from the ground. His black hair fell on his shoulders and stroked the arrogant-looking dragons imprinted on his black robe.

  He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead.

  So painful……

  He saw something red at the corner of his eyes and paused his action. He turned and looked over.

  The girl in red was bending down and looking at him. “You are not satisfied with changing into different swords anymore. Seems like you have started changing into a human. Are you going to change into a beast next time?”


  Lian Jing looked lost.

  [Lord Nine, there is a sword profile.] The system reminded him of this. [Your points are not enough for you to violate your profile.]

  Lian Jing’s heart fumed but he still maintained his dazed look.

  After he cursed and swore enough, Lian Jing blinked his eyes and said arrogantly, “You are my partner?”


  Ming Shu sized up him. Was he unable to feel it because he was a sword before?

  “I am talking to you.”


  Lian Jing got a little irritated when he didn’t get a reply.

  Ming Shu folded her arms in front of her chest and looked down on him. “Do I have to reply to you?”


  Lian Jing realized their difference in height and immediately stood up. His black robe straightened out and the dragons on it looked more vivid. They seemed to be alive.

  “Are people so impolite now?”


  “I am sorry. There are not many people who are as impolite as me.”

  Ming Shu commended herself and then continued smiling at Lian Jing.

  Lian Jing didn’t understand what Ming Shu was trying to say.

  He looked at her with a puzzled expression. “You are humble.”


  “Still okay.”


  Ming Shu pulled a chair and sat down. She took the pastries on the table and started eating them.

  “Are you not going to ask me why I suddenly turned into a human?”


  Lian Jing felt that he was a handsome and attractive man. He was unhappy to be ignored like this.

  If it was not because……

  Lian Jing remembered what he saw just now. The white shaws flew in the air and mist surrounded the girl. The girl’s beautiful face appeared vaguely behind the mist. Her white neck……

  Why did his wife not recognize him every time they met? He felt so tired.

  “Is that any of my business?” Ming Shu smiled. “You don’t like me, right? We can think of a way to break the alliance.”


  Ming Shu wanted to anger this little demon so she just spoke without thinking much.

  This was how the the little demon should be treated.

  “What did you say?”


  “I said, break the alliance.”


  “You wish!” Lian Jing shouted instinctively. He then realized that he was too agitated and immediately tried to salvage the situation. “The alliance is not that easy to break.”


  “If it can be formed, it can be broken.”


  “.……”

  that ……

  Demons kept appearing in Cloud City so the three sects and six clans did a thorough search in the city.

  However, people still got killed by demons.

  As a demonic cultivator, Ming Shu was not the main focus of the disciples now. When the people from the sects and clans met her, they would just ignore her.

  Ming Shu was depressed.

  Ming Shu went to Chang Sheng’s courtyard. The crowd of people was still there.

  There seemed to be fewer people. Most of them must have been sent away.

  They had to look for demons as well as find the location of the demon king.

  “Senior Sister Su, please save Senior Sister Fang Wan.”


  Ming Shu heard this sentence before she stepped into the house.

  “Junior Sister……”


  Ling Lie’s voice sounded too. It was hoarse and tired. “Master Chang Sheng, my life can’t be used?”


  Ming Shu circled to the back and climbed up the wall.

  She didn’t see Fang Wan. Only Chang Sheng, Ling Lie, and a few others were in the room.

  “What are you looking at?”


  Another head popped out beside Ming Shu. Lian Jing glanced at the people in the courtyard. “Is he handsome?”


  “More handsome than you.”


  “Which part of him is more handsome than me? What kind of eyesight do you have? Shallow.”


  Lian Jing turned back into a sword and disappeared into the alley.

  Chang Sheng rejected Ling Lie. His life couldn’t be used.

  “Senior Sister……”


  “Senior Sister, please save Senior Sister Fang Wan.”


  Su Yiqiu didn’t look good. Something might have happened in the sect so Su Yiqiu was not willing to save Fang Wan.

  However, there were so many disciples pleading with her and Fang Wan had saved Senior Brother. If she didn’t agree to save her, it would be going against her conscience.

  Ming Shu felt that something was amiss.

  Ming Shu jumped into the courtyard. Her sudden appearance caused a shock among the people in the courtyard.

  “Devil girl, how did you come in?”


  Ming Shu pointed at the wall behind her.

  Didn’t they see her jumping in?

  The disciples were speechless. They were not asking about that. The arrays outside the alley had been strengthened so that no outsiders would be able to come in without them being alerted.

  However, they only realized her presence after she jumped in.

  Ming Shu asked, “Where is Fang Wan?”


  “What does that have to do with you? What do you want to do this time?”


  The disciples were on their guard.
