The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

“`

The massive incense praying power that surged into her body carried an extremely scorching breath.

All those desires and cravings transformed into the most fervent and burning energy, rushing towards her.

The Yawing Jiao dragon, lying in wait at the bottom of the Jade Water River, was stunned.

Feeling the incense praying power swell within her, listening to those excited pleas for help, the chaotic and noisy voices were far away, yet still irritatingly disturbing to her peace of mind.

“… What madness has seized these mortals?”

So many voices invading her ears at once, she felt her head was about to explode.

With a thought, she seemed to return to that humble River God temple, standing atop the temple’s table, looking down at a group of people kneeling below.

Inside the temple, dense bluish smoke wafted through the air, with bunches of burning incense sticks placed before the deity’s shrine.

Below the shrine, it was filled with people knocking their heads in prayer.

All these people whispered quietly; not a single one spoke aloud.

Yet such numerous silent prayers still sounded irksomely confusing to her.

Not only was the temple full of kneeling people, but as she looked up, she also saw that outside the temple was crammed with anxious individuals holding incense sticks, waiting to enter.

The dense crowd made her feel somewhat dizzy.

“Have these mortals truly gone insane?”

In a panic, she returned to her own body, away from the temple overwhelmed with kneeling worshippers.

Reflecting on the grand spectacle she had just witnessed, she was filled with bewilderment.

She hadn’t done anything, yet these mortals were fervently prostrating themselves, begging for her help as if they were going mad.

It was utterly strange.

And on top of that, the mortals’ prayer requests were so dull and bizarre.

Things like ensuring her stepmother drops dead, hoping he would pass the high school exams next year, praying she would give birth to a son… She didn’t have such abilities.

The Yawing Jiao dragon swam through the water, shaking her head in silence.

In her view, the actions of these insane mortals were simply incomprehensible.

Maybe she should destroy that River God temple when she got a chance, to spare herself the annoyance of their constant chatter.

——Such a thought emerged in her mind.

However, considering that the statue in the temple was consecrated by that person, and the incense praying power was acquired with that person’s help.

Was this situation precisely what that person hoped for?

Did he want her to receive a lot of incense praying power?

At this thought, the Yawing Jiao dragon felt deflated.

Right, these incense praying powers seem quite formidable, could they be used for hunting?

In the icy depths of the river, as the Yawing Jiao dragon was contemplating, she suddenly tilted her head and a fireball appeared out of nowhere beside her.

This red fireball burned fiercely in the water without giving off any heat, and the flowing currents passed right through the fireball as if it was just a mirage, not affecting the surrounding water at all.

However, the moment she saw this fireball, the Yawing Jiao dragon who was close by was slightly startled; she sensed an extreme danger.

This strange fire… was very terrifying!

With a thought, the red fireball immediately flew out, heading straight for a water monkey swimming in the distance amongst the underwater plants.

The agile water monkey in the river seemed to sense something and turned sharply… only it was already too late.

Dragging a long tail of flames, the red fireball traversed tens of yards in a blink of an eye and struck the water monkey hiding in the weeds directly.

The green-haired water monkey let out a tragic scream as the red flame ignited on its surface.

It struggled desperately and wailed, but within three breaths, it had fallen stiffly to the ground.

Simultaneously, the flame went out.

When the Yawing Jiao dragon swam closer, she saw the lifeless water monkey floating up with empty and dull eyes.

There was not a single burn on its body, and even the green fur remained unchanged.

“`

The flammable crimson flames seemed to burn away something inside the creature, turning it into an empty shell.

Yao Yue Jiao bit into the water monkey and discovered that, surprisingly, it was still breathing, not dead.

But it made no movement whatsoever.

As she chewed and digested the water monkey’s body, Yao Yue Jiao’s eyes widened in astonishment.

“Such powerful prayer strength!”

She had only emitted a wisp of prayer strength, yet it had produced such a powerful fireball.

It was much more effective than her venom.

It didn’t cause any harm to the prey, yet it could kill it.

“No wonder he wanted to help me obtain prayer strength, this stuff is indeed very impressive.”

Yao Yue Jiao joyfully digested the water monkey’s body.

Having discovered the strength of prayer power, she suddenly found herself less annoyed with those mortals.

Even though the humans’ incessant demands were noisy and grating, she endured it because the prayer strength was so potent.

She cocked her head and listened from the riverbed a while longer, becoming accustomed to the voices of the mortals, which no longer sounded unpleasant.

Those murmuring voices from afar weren’t piercing, merely a collection of boring nonsense.

But amidst this babble, she suddenly noticed a plea that piqued her interest.

“…I pray for the River God to descend his Divine Skills and subdue the evil demon in the bamboo forest outside our village.”

“That demon often appears at dusk, abducting children from our village.”

“We’ve already lost five children, all found with their bellies cut open, and their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, and kidneys eaten…”

An elderly and sorrowful voice rose, inconspicuous among the sea of murmurs.

But she listened intently to this passage, immediately focusing her attention and looking over.

In the faintness, she saw a white-haired old man kneeling in front of the shrine at the River God’s temple.

A few young mortals knelt beside the old man, all praying for the same thing.

An evil demon outside their village that preyed on children…

Yao Yue Jiao’s eyes suddenly lit up.

An evil demon!

So there were evil demons on land too?

The lesser evils that roamed the Jade Water River had been mostly cleared out, leaving only those last three demon nests which seemed dangerous to her.

That person had also observed those three demon nests from afar, but only observed.

He said it was very dangerous and they would eradicate it later.

But now, in the Jade Water River, small evils like Gui fish and water monkeys had been almost entirely consumed, forcing her to search a long time to find a prey.

Yet she never expected that there would be evil creatures on land as well.

In the river water, Yao Yue Jiao tilted her head, listening carefully. As she concentrated, she vaguely saw through the praying mortals the village behind them, as well as the dense bamboo forest that lay just outside the village.

The forest was also within the Jade Water River’s domain, less than three miles from the riverbank.

An evil creature that only dared to attack children certainly wouldn’t be strong.

Yao Yue Jiao immediately swayed her body happily, heading toward the bamboo forest she sensed.

It was just the right time, at dusk, the sun about to set.

She swam directly towards the bamboo forest where the evil creature lurked.

She hadn’t expected to find evil creatures on land… What a pleasant surprise!

And these mortals would even provide her with information about the location and movements of these evil beings.

Suddenly, the humans seemed agreeable in her eyes once more.
