Zhang Fei [1], who was adding firewood to the campfire, let out a soft sigh after hearing the notification, especially since the day had changed, but the target he was waiting for still hadn't shown up.

anwhile, the six won sat huddled around the campfire, hugging each other as the temperature in the valley continued to drop, and the Qi covering their bodies could not withstand the chilling air, making them extrely cold.

"Do you think those villagers will really make a move on us, brother?" As she stretched both hands toward the campfire, Xia Qianqian inquired, but her body continued to shiver from the cold. "We've waited for so long, and it's already midnight, but there's still no sign of them making a move."

"Ugh! It would be better if we left this place, Fei." Gu Yan groaned and tightly hugged Luo Yu. "This place is too creepy, and this chilling air also penetrates to my bones, making extrely uncomfortable."

Hearing that, Luo Yu imdiately conveyed her idea to Gu Yan and the other won. "How about we dual-cultivate with him in turn? Our passion and his hot yang qi will cause our bodies to warm up, significantly reducing the coldness.

"I agree with you!" Du Yuan and Ning Xiang, who also felt cold, imdiately agreed without hesitation.

Zhang Fei [1] laughed as he listened to their words. He then glanced at Mu Lingshu, who appeared awkward, particularly because she was still a virgin, and felt extrely embarrassed if she had to watch them dual-cultivate with him in front of her.

Xia Qianqian, who was sitting right next to Mu Lingshu, imdiately noticed her expression. She smiled faintly before standing up from her seat and moving to Zhang Fei [1]'s laps. She put her arms around his neck as she whispered to him. 'What if we do it in front of Senior Sister Lingshu, brother?

Maybe if he watches us dual-cultivate, she'll feel sothing, and it would be great for her if she could actually feel it.'

'No.' Zhang Fei [1] denied Xia Qianqian's words. 'Lingshu's abnormality is really unusual, and I'm sure that she won't get turned on even if she watches us dual-cultivate. Instead, our activities will make her feel even more awkward and embarrassed, especially since she always distances himself from such a thing.'

Xia Qianqian then looked at Mu Lingshu with a look of pity, particularly because dual cultivation had always brought her imnse pleasure. She felt sorry for her because she couldn't experience the sa pleasure as she and the other won. "Brother, I-"

Xia Qianqian didn't continue her sentence because they suddenly felt a cold air sweeping over them, which was much colder than before, coming from the direction of the village. They imdiately jumped to their feet while taking out their respective weapons, and they also released their Qi to prepare for the enemies' attacks.

Sensing that unusual aura, Zhang Fei [1] stood up in front of the won as he took out the demon exterminating sword, which imdiately vibrated with excitent. 'Hmm? Demon, huh? Otherwise, my sword wouldn't be this excited, and it's so eager to attack them.'

Not long after, Zhang Fei [1] and the others saw the villagers walking towards them, but their appearances no longer looked like humans, and they looked like living corpses instead.

'Ugh! What's wrong with them? Why did their appearances turn so horribly?' Gu Yan inquired quietly, hiding behind Zhang Fei [1].

Xia Qianqian and the other won were also shocked to see the changes in the villagers' appearances, but Zhang Fei [1] imdiately cald them down while observing the map, which is filled with red dots as many as the number of people. 'What really happened to them, i? You told before that there was nothing strange about them, but they've beco like that now.'

[Based on the system scan, they are no longer humans but living corpses.] i's answer made Zhang Fei [1] frown. [In this universe, there are many cultivators with strange abilities, such as ghost and corpse cultivators, who have the ability to control ghosts and corpses.]

Zhang Fei [1] nodded in understanding, especially since he had also read about them in his old novels about cultivators and the like. 'If that's the case, that ans these people have been dead for a long ti, and a corpse cultivator uses their corpses for certain purposes.

However, I am a little confused about them, especially since their aura and appearance were previously no different from humans, and the map did not show any hostile signs from them.'

[I don't have a definite answer to that, Master. Perhaps the corpse cultivator who turned them into this state used a thod to disguise their death aura, and the system couldn't detect it. Anyway, I've been trying to track down the mastermind behind this incident, but I haven't been able to find him or her, so I think you should lure him or her out by destroying these living corpses.]

'Could the mastermind be soone from the Pang Clan?' Zhang Fei [1] suspected that, especially since that clan was the only one he knew to possess evil techniques.

"What should we do now, brother? Do we have to fight them?" Xia Qianqian fearfully asked Zhang Fei [1], especially since those living corpses were getting closer to them.

"Yes, we will fight them and destroy them." They were shocked to hear Zhang Fei's [1] answer. "These people have actually been dead for a long ti, and a corpse cultivator purposefully used their corpses to harm the cultivators who ca to this area. If my guess is correct, the person who issued the mission was the mastermind behind their condition, and he or she deliberately lured us into a trap."

Mu Lingshu nodded in agreent and said to them. "I also heard about the corpse cultivators, and these people do indeed resemble the characteristics of the living corpses used by them as weapons, so it would be better if we made a move now to end their suffering once and for all."

"You guys don't need to move, and I'll take care of them myself." Zhang Fei [1] said that as he transford into his half-fox form with four long tails dancing behind him, his action stunned Mu Lingshu, who was seeing his other form for the first ti.

Without delay, Zhang Fei [1] teleported above the crowd of those living corpses, and he also used his sword elent thod to channel his light qi into the demon exterminating sword before dancing among the crowd.

"Hey, guys, is he a demihuman?" Mu Lingshu asked, her eyes moving to follow Zhang Fei [1]'s movents. She was surprised to find that his sword skills were quite good, even though his swordmanship was still not as good as hers.

Luo Yu shook her head and answered him. "I find it hard to explain to you, but Zhang Fei [1] is not a demihuman. In fact, he is a full-fledged human, but he is also a full-fledged fox beast, and his current form is his half-fox form, so he looks like a demihuman."

"Besides, he still has one more form, and that's—Mhn!"

Luo Yu imdiately stopped Gu Yan by covering her mouth with her hand, especially since Zhang Fei [1]'s other form was a demon, and not everyone could accept the presence of demons among them. Moreover, they didn't know Mu Lingshu that well, and she was worried that she would hate him if she knew his third form.

"Why did you stop her? What exactly is his other form?" Mu Lingshu asked Luo Yu with a frown.

Luo Yu imdiately rejected Mu Lingshu. "Sorry, I won't tell you about his third form, and you can ask him directly if you are curious about it."

Luo Yu's answer made Mu Lingshu frown even more, but she suddenly felt sothing coming from behind them, so she imdiately moved to attack it.

*Clang*

However, it imdiately deflected her attack before it struck back at Mu Lingshu, which hit her chest and sent her flying far back, and her expression was a little hurt by it.

Seeing that, Du Yuan imdiately moved to catch Mu Lingshu, and she landed near the other won again. "Are you all right?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Mu Lingshu imdiately wiped away the blood on the corners of her lips. "I think that creature is the mastermind behind this incident."

Du Yuan and the others were shocked after they looked at the creature, because its appearance was much more terrifying than that of the villagers. Its body resembled a skinless skeleton, complented by dark green eyes.

"Keh... keh... keh..." The creature laughed eerily as its body slowly changed before becoming a human woman, and she then licked her lips as she stared coldly at Mu Lingshu and the others. "It's been a while since humans have co here, and I'm really hungry now, so I'm going to eat you all, like the humans who ca here before you."

Xia Qianqian and the others shuddered upon hearing that, and the woman imdiately moved towards them to capture them, making them panic, especially since her strength was far above theirs.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei [1], who was slaughtering those living corpses, noticed this and imdiately teleported in front of his partners before kicking the woman away.

"Gyah!" The woman scread in pain from Zhang Fei [1]'s attack, especially since his legs were covered by his light elent, which was her nesis. However, she landed directly on the ground and glared at him fiercely, not daring to attack him directly. 'How can a demihuman like him have such a potent light elent?'

"At first, I thought it was a corpse cultivator who made the villagers like that, but I didn't expect the culprit to be a demon." Zhang Fei observed the woman with seriousness. 'Show her status, i.'

[Wait a minute.]

'Marchioness rank demon, huh?' Zhang Fei [1] muttered inwardly, but his expression changed slightly upon reading Arshila's abilities, as her necromancy piqued his interest.

[Do you intend to mimic her necromancy, master?]

'Yes.' Zhang Fei [1] replied with a slight nod. 'Her soul manipulation should be quite good, but I'm not interested in that, and her necromancy is much more useful.'

Suddenly, the six won attacked him from behind, but he imdiately dodged their attacks and swiftly knocked them unconscious before sending them into the training space. He then frowned at Arshila, as he was sure that she was using her soul manipulation on them. "You're a demon from the Netherworld realm, right?

Anyway, you've made a fatal mistake in using your ability to control their souls, and I will never forgive anyone who dares to use those closest to ."

[Anyway, you have to be careful, Master. Even though her rank is marchioness, she is much stronger than Lillea, and you should summon Boitata to deal with her.]

'I know, i.'

"How... how do you know about my realm?" Arshila asked with a shocked expression, especially since no one in the Sky Jade Realm should know about that realm.

"If my guess is correct, you must be one of the demons they purposefully left behind in this realm to prepare for their next invasion, right?" Arshila frowned upon hearing Zhang Fei [1]'s words, but her expression changed as soon as he turned into a demon. "As you can see, I am also a demon, but I am different from you."

"Impossible!" Arshila shouted loudly to Zhang Fei [1]. "You clearly have a light elent! How can you be a demon?"

"You're going to die soon, so I'm not going to waste my ti with you." Zhang Fei [1] said so with a shake of his head.

"Ha ha ha!" After hearing that, Arshila burst into laughter. "Do you think a viscount-rank demon like you can kill ? Heh! I don't know how you can transform into a beast and a demon, but you're still not my opponent, even if you have such a strong light elent."

"Hmm? " Zhang Fei [1] raised his eyebrows as all of the skeletons in the area stood up, and many ghosts ca out from the ground, imdiately encircling him.

[Master, they are the ghosts of the villagers and the people who ca here before, so it would be better if you killed Arshila imdiately, and these ghosts can be free from her control.]
