Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 439 - 23: The Cannon Fodder Eldest Senior Sister in

Chu Xiuhuan looked at her with an enigmatic smile on his lips.

"I knew it, my Tao’er is the best to ."

With so embarrassnt, ng Tao lowered her head.

"Don’t call that, it feels weird."

"What feels weird?"

Blushing, ng Tao looked at him.

"It feels... it just makes people feel like you might like . I know you only see as a sister, and I see you as a brother. We’re more than family, closer than family!"

"I don’t want to treat you as family... Tao’er, why not stay in the Human World with and be a simple couple? Didn’t you say you love the Human World the most? We can stay here, wander the mountains and rivers, enjoy an ageless life, and taste all the world’s delicacies. Isn’t that nice?"

ng Tao lowered her head, eyes showing so hesitation.

"But... but my master is still waiting for . He’s been very good to , and I can’t let him down."

Chu Xiuhuan remained as gentle as ever.

"I’m not forcing you to make a decision right away. A day in the Immortal Realm is a year in the Mortal World; we have enough ti, so you can think about it slowly."

——

Jiang Lai wasn’t in a hurry to find Chu Xiuhuan either.

She took her ti eating, drinking, and strolling on the way to Qianqiu Tower because she knew there were others more anxious than her.

Along the way, a group of Immortal Soldiers descended to the Mortal World and happened to cross paths with Jiang Lai. She generously shared the location of Qianqiu Tower with them, urging them to notify the Immortal Emperor imdiately and dispatch forces to Qianqiu Tower to catch him.

By the ti Jiang Lai arrived, a Heaven and Earth Net had already been set around Qianqiu Tower, waiting for Chu Xiuhuan to show up.

Rong Yin was already nearby guarding the tower, and seeing Jiang Lai, his face turned cold as he looked at her.

"The Mixed Heaven Beast, did you subdue it?"

"Yu Fanxin also had a hand in it, why?"

"Now that you have Demonic Qi in you, returning to the Immortal Realm will be as difficult as ascending to heaven. Now there’s an opportunity for you to earn rit: capture Chu Xiuhuan for , and I will help you remove the Demonic Qi from your body."

Rong Yin was injured now, and Jiang Lai showed no rcy. At this mont, even against Chu Xiuhuan, he might lose.

As Immortal Venerable, he couldn’t go around admitting he’d been heavily injured by a disciple.

Thinking it over, the only solution was to make good use of Jiang Lai at hand.

Her strange cultivation was more than enough to deal with Chu Xiuhuan, and it would also ensure ng Tao’s safety.

"Do you think your cultivation has increased enough for you to do whatever you want? Once the Demonic Qi goes awry, you’ll end up like Chu Xiuhuan — hunted by the entire Immortal Realm, and you’ll regret it too late."

"Alright, I can help you catch Chu Xiuhuan, but what if your precious disciple gets in the way?"

"I’m here; she won’t make a scene."

Well, well, just ntioning ng Tao made the light in her eyes change, soft and tender, like one totally in love.

Jiang Lai nodded.

You said it yourself.

After waiting in the Human World for four days, at the fourth night’s end, Chu Xiuhuan appeared with ng Tao.

Qianqiu Tower is a place in the Human World where all demons were suppressed. Although the demons had long since turned to ashes, their Demonic Qi lingered, so the Immortal Realm built a tower to keep it under control.

Attached to the top of the tower was a talisman left by the Immortal Emperor who perished, ensuring peace in the area.

And Chu Xiuhuan’s only goal in coming here was to destroy the talisman, releasing the Demonic Qi and Demon Soul repressed under the tower for his own use.

In the original storyline, it was Jiang Lai leading the disciples here to besiege Chu Xiuhuan.

At that ti, the original host was already injured, but with Chu Xiuhuan being outnumbered and having ng Tao with him, he soon got surrounded and should have had no escape.

But the heroine, ng Tao, stood up to protect him, using her Magic Artifact to heavily injure Jiang Lai, then fled with Chu Xiuhuan.

This ti, it’s much like the storyline. When Chu Xiuhuan found himself surrounded, he instinctively looked at ng Tao coldly.

"Did you summon them?!"

ng Tao shook her head hurriedly, nearly in tears.

"It wasn’t , Brother Han, really, it wasn’t . You’re so good to , how could I possibly betray you?"

Chu Xiuhuan didn’t have ti to dwell on who revealed his location and laid a trap early on, waiting for him.

Facing the thousands of Immortal Soldiers, Chu Xiuhuan had no choice but to fight desperately.

At that mont, ng Tao directly opened her hands and stood in front of Chu Xiuhuan, shouting at Jiang Lai across.

"Senior Sister! Senior Brother Chu is our fellow disciple. Since we’re fellow disciples, why must we resort to blades now?"

"Tao’er, there’s no need for you to do this for ; stand aside, I’ll handle it."

"No! You are like my own brother; how can I watch you get bullied!"

Jiang Lai swiftly drew a long sword from an Immortal Soldier’s waist behind her, then pointed its blade at the pitiable ’sibling pair’ before her.

"Chu Xiuhuan, will you put on the shackles yourself, or do I have to personally put them on you?"

Jiang Lai rarely followed the storyline, and sure enough, the next second, ng Tao grew more agitated.

"Senior Sister! Do you not care at all for the bond between fellow disciples?!"

"Whose fellow disciple? I’m the senior disciple of Qing Mountain in the Immortal Realm — how could I have a fellow disciple from the Demon Path? ng Tao, what do you an by standing in front of him? Are you going against the Immortal Realm?"

The thought of going against the Immortal Realm made ng Tao instinctively want to back down, but recalling Chu Xiuhuan’s kindness and her master’s tolerance toward her, she thought, why not be audacious for once?

"If you want to bully him, you have to get past first!"

Chu Xiuhuan looked at the small figure in front of him, feeling a slight stir in his heart.

Initially, his goal was rely to exploit this girl’s Pure Demon Body to enhance his own cultivation. Along the way, he only found her naive and foolish, but now it seed she also had so bravery and sincerity.

Others treating her slightly better would wholeheartedly see them as friends without doubting their impure intentions.

If that’s the case, he couldn’t just keep hiding behind a little girl.

The woman before him was annoyingly provocative, so he might as well kill her as a warm-up.

ng Tao, sensing the man behind her was ready to act, felt at ease and joyful.

Indeed, Chu Xiuhuan cared for her. Even if he didn’t express it, his actions would never let her suffer.

Even if he doesn’t strike, it’s fine. Jiang Lai’s cultivation isn’t even a match for a single finger of hers. Why not take this opportunity to teach her a lesson and make Jiang Lai understand that ng Tao isn’t one to be ssed with!

Just as she spoke, ng Tao, without waiting for Chu Xiuhuan to make a move, directly took out the Fire Spirit Magical Artifact given by Rong Yin and waved it at Jiang Lai.

The roaring flas surged like a dragon, turning the land along the way into charred blackness. As an Immortal-level Magical Artifact, it was more than enough to deal with a master with over a thousand years of cultivation, yet ng Tao directed all its power at Jiang Lai.

The flas instantly engulfed Jiang Lai, and the surrounding Immortal Soldiers rushed forward to put out the fire. However, before they could arrive, they saw the hot flas flicker with sparks of blue lightning.
