Chapter 77: Chapter 76: Red Demon Discusses Pine 1

Inside the small pavilion.

Wang Chong'an is introducing people's identities to the two girls in red.

“This is Taoist friend Wen, the young son of the Nie Family Head, Nie Wen. He's exceptionally gifted and has a high chance of becoming our common junior brother.”

“This one is…”

Soon, Wang Chong'an brought the two to He Yuntong.

“This is Taoist friend Yun Tong, the granddaughter of Pill Master He Dan, the foundation establishment cultivator in 'Bai Cao Tang'. She manages the largest drug hall in the market, has a decent talent, and is about to break through to the seventh layer of Qi cultivation.”

He said softly to the girl in red.

Yun Tong greeted them politely.

In the market, she held a prestigious position, controlling the 'Bai Cao Tang' where numerous pill masters and spirit plant masters respected her immensely.

Having practiced superior quality cultivation techniques since childhood, and with an endless supply of elixirs to enhance her cultivation level, coupled with her clear and beautiful appearance, she had both the ability and personality that made her beloved by the foundation establishment pill master.

However, in front of the girl in red, she still felt inferior.

Everything she used to brag about was insignificant compared to this girl in red.

From her understanding, the girl in red was two years younger than her but had already become a high-tier Qi cultivator quite early, with her cultivation level at the ninth level of Qi training or in perfect Qi training.

They should know that every advancement in cultivation level required mass resources and time investment. Many loose cultivators with average abilities spent their entire life oscillating between lower and intermediate Qi cultivation levels, never being able to reach the high stage of Qi cultivation, let alone touch the threshold of foundation establishment.

Not just in cultivation, but in terms of appearance and background, the girl in red could simply crush her.

She sighed lightly in her heart, and tried to blend among the crowd with a cheerful smile.

“Brother Chong'an told me, Miss He is from 'Bai Cao Tang'?”

The girl in red curiously came up to her side and asked.

“Yes, Senior Sister Xu.”

Yun Tong nodded with a bit of restraint.

“Your hall is proficient in alchemy and grows many Spirit Plants and Spirit Grass. Do you happen to have any Spirit Fruit suitable for Spirit Beasts?” “This… I'm not sure about that.”

Yun Tong hesitated.

“There are many types of spirit plants in the medicine garden. I rarely go there, so I have to ask the Spirit Plant Masters in our hall.”

“When I was looking for the traces of the Demon Envoy in the market last time, I accidentally bumped into a young man who had a certain Spirit Fruit's scent on him. After asking, I found out he's a Spirit Plant Master from 'Bai Cao Tang', so I came here to ask Miss He.”

The girl in red gave a playful smile, bright and beautiful.

“A young Spirit Plant Master? Indeed, there are several young Spirit Plant Masters in the hall, but I need to check who exactly you're talking about.” For some reason, Yun Tong had the image of Lu Xuan flashing in her mind.

Lu Xuan's figure flashed, stopping beneath the courtyard wall.

At the moment on the bluestone courtyard wall, there crouched a strange demon beast; it was the four-eyed Red Demon he had seen in the market before.

Somehow it had managed to find out where Lu Xuan was.

In the courtyard, the Cloud Leopard, with its pair of green pupils, stared fiercely at the Red Demon on the courtyard wall, occasionally hissing lowly.

From the grass puppet's gray and black lump, several strands of gray grass twisted together like gray snakes, moving around as if the red demon would be trapped as soon as it invaded the Spirit Field.

The Red Demon remained unresponsive, squatting on the courtyard wall obediently, its four eyes fixed on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan felt slightly unnerved by its four peculiar eyes, unsure how to react. Maintaining a second-grade Hidden Fog Maze Array requires quite a few spirit stones, so when Lu Xuan was at home during the day, he usually deactivated the array, and this strange spirit beast had slipped in.

He scolded it a few times, but the four-eyed Red Demon didn't budge, leaving Lu Xuan helpless.

The red demon perched on the courtyard wall has a remarkable background.

It'S a spirit beast kept by

the red-clad girl from the sect. Lu Xuan was worried that if he harmed it, it could lead to unnecessary trouble.

Of course, more importantly, the Red Demon is quite extraordinary and can easily detect the presence of the Demon Envoy. Lu Xuan felt he probably wouldn't win a fight against it…

“You, come down!”

Seeing the four-eyed Red Demon was obedient and sensible, he gestured towards it with a crook of his finger.

The Red Demon grin, the pattern on its face, resembling a specter, suddenly came to life.

It jumped down in front of Lu Xuan and started to circle around him.

Its four eyes, two red and two white, were spinning restlessly, making its originally mysterious face have a strange contrast.

“Is this what you want?”

Lu Xuan took out a Red Cloud Pine Nut from his storage bag. Last time he encountered the four-eyed Red Demon in the market, he suspected that the thing attracting the Red demon might have been the scent of the Red Cloud Pine Nut lingering on him.

As expected, the moment it saw the Red Cloud Pine Nut, the Red Demon's eyes all lit up. Its extraordinarily long, red arms were pleading for it.

“This Red demon is more polite than the mountain monkeys I've seen in my previous life.”

Lu Xuan sighed and threw the Red Cloud Pine Nut to the four-eyed Red Demon.

The Red Demon caught it hastily, impatiently tore open the fish scale-like shell, revealing the translucent pine nut inside.

Breaking off a piece with its furry fingers, it inserted into its mouth.

An extremely satisfied expression appeared on his face, as if it tasted something extremely delicious.

Lu Xuan laughed while watching it eating one pine nut after another.

“Seeing you eating something so delicious. Looking at your anxious appearance, you should know it's not easy to come by, right?” When it had eaten about half, he suddenly asked.

The spiritual intelligence of the Red Demon was even higher than he had anticipated, It paused its actions when it heard Lu Xuan's question, its four shining eyes flickered with a look of understanding, and it quickly nodded.

“It took me countless hard work, and great pains to cultivate this superior quality Red Cloud Pine Nut. I was initially thinking of selling it for a good price, but since I ran into you, giving it to you is also by fate.”

“However, you're from a sect, and your owner is one of the chosen ones, you probably won't be eating my spirit fruit without giving anything back, right?” Tossing a spirit stone in his hand, Lu Xuan casually asked.

The Red Demon tilted its head, a hint of humanoid deliberation flashed in its four eyes, it then pointed at the spirit stone in Lu Xuan's hand, let out a yelp to ask Lu Xuan to wait for it, put down the half-eaten Red Cloud Pine Nut, and quickly scampered away.

In less than two quarters of an hour, it reappeared with the red-clad girl in Lu Xuan's courtyard.

“Taoist friend, we meet again,”

The girl in red smiled, saying.

“My spirit pet is quite mischievous and sneaked into your home without my permission. Please forgive any disturbance it caused.”

“On the way here, I have communicated with it and learned that it took an excellent quality spirit fruit from you.

You must have gone through a lot of difficulties to grow such a Spirit Plant. I

will surely make up for it.”

The girl in red, with a wave of her spiritual power, lifted the remaining half of the Red Cloud Pine Nut into her hand.

'Superior Quality Spirit Fruit, no wonder the Red Demon can't forget it.”

“How about this, in return, I will give you a first-grade magic artifact and three

Yuan Cultivating Pills.. What do you think?”
