Let me Touch your Tail

Chapter 40

Ren Qingyue had no choice but to pull a demon pill from her Cosmos Bag and hand it to Yanzhao.

Most cultivators don't use demon pills as casually as Yanzhao. Typically, they use them for alchemy or to produce energy for pills and magical artifacts.

Ren Qingyue's water attribute demon pills, which were used for healing, had been exhausted, leaving only some of lesser quality.

Fortunately, Yanzhao wasn't picky; she accepted whatever was given.

Yanzhao took the demon pill and put it into her pocket, but Ren Qingyue was still holding onto her collar, so she twisted her neck to signal Ren Qingyue to let go.

Ren Qingyue laid down a condition: "If I let go, you can't run."

Yanzhao didn't respond.

Ren Qingyue added, "I won't drag you back."

Only then did Yanzhao say, "Oh."

As soon as Ren Qingyue released Yanzhao, her expression suddenly changed. She quickly pulled Yanzhao behind her, unsheathing her sword and looking towards the distant figure that had appeared out of nowhere.

The figure had appeared suddenly in the pavilion, dressed in a dark robe, with a restrained yet menacing aura.

A gentle breeze passed through the courtyard, ruffling the woman's black hair and her empty left sleeve.

Dark robe, one arm, purple-gold pattern—this was someone who could enter and leave Ren Qing's immortal residence as if it were empty, an undeniable figure.

Ren Qingyue's throat tightened, and her back was instantly drenched in cold sweat.

It was the supreme ruler of the demon clan, Demon Lord Nangong Yin.

Nangong Yin had come to the immortal residence?!

Ren Qingyue's palms were sweating; the visitor was definitely not here with good intentions!

Everyone in the two realms knew that Demon Lord Nangong Yin had a vendetta against the Fuyun Sect. She was notorious for being merciless towards the sect's disciples.

Ren Qingyue was frantic.

Faced with such a powerful enemy, whose strength was on an entirely different level, how could she protect Yanzhao and ensure her safe escape?

Could it be that the master's residence was where Yanzhao and she would meet their end?

Yanzhao was the master's child; the master should be protecting Yanzhao.

If Yanzhao were to fall into the hands of demons and become a little demon lord in the future, how could she face her master in the underworld?

Various thoughts raced through Ren Qingyue's mind as she prepared to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Yin spoke, "I won't kill you. She stays."

Ren Qingyue's pupils contracted as she recalled the old discussion among the sect's elders about using Yanzhao to restrain the demon lord.

Yanzhao had demon blood within her. If Nangong Yin wanted to take Yanzhao away, was she trying to eliminate the threat?

No!

Yanzhao was the master's child; she could not allow her to be taken by demons!

"Then you might as well kill me!" Ren Qingyue confronted Nangong Yin with her sword, "As long as I'm alive, I won't let anyone take her away!"
