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

“Oh? Demonic aura?”

Seeing the demonic aura emanating from the cave ahead, Li Muyang was slightly surprised.

In the counties of the North Land, evil creatures were the most abundant.

Yet, the mountain spirits and demons were few and far between.

This land not only lacked cultivators, but even the mountain spirits seemed to have vanished.

Feeling the faint demonic aura within the cave, Li Muyang opened the system’s offering interface, searching for related red entries.

He quickly found the relevant message.

A weasel demon hiding in the mountains often descended to the villages to abduct children.

Li Muyang directly entered the pitch-black cave, simultaneously checking his experience bar.

Biting Moon Jiao LV6 (98%).

The pale purple experience bar was nearly full, just a small section short.

According to Li Muyang’s experience, consuming the creature inside would likely level him up to LV7.

At LV6, the Biting Moon Jiao had unlocked the ability to transform into a human.

So at LV7, what new ability could be unlocked?

Li Muyang, following the dim demonic aura, stepped into the cave.

But the demon inside the cave was extremely alert. The moment Li Muyang entered the cave, the creature swiftly moved around inside it.

Li Muyang quickly followed, surprised in his heart.

“This demon is indeed smarter than the evil fiends…”

Most evil fiends were cruel and bloodthirsty, but possessed little desire to survive.

Even if Li Muyang came knocking, they would engage in a fight or two, realizing they were no match only after clashing.

Compared to the fiends, the creature in the cave was much smarter.

However, unfortunately for it, its aura had already been locked onto by Li Muyang.

Li Muyang swiftly ran through the darkness, chasing the demon’s aura through the dark cave.

This mountain belly had been hollowed out by the demon, with many labyrinthian, interconnected narrow paths excavated underground, which could take a long time just for an ordinary person to find their way.

Unfortunately, such deceptive tricks could not confuse Li Muyang.

Li Muyang tracked down the aura, getting closer and closer to the demon.

Finally, he found a giant weasel nearly two meters long inside the dark mountain belly.

The moment it saw Li Muyang, the weasel’s fur stood on end, utterly terrified.

“Dragon God Mother!”

The demon let out a shrill scream, evidently a creature with some cultivation and who had refined its spirit.

Li Muyang stepped out from the darkness, and seeing the two clusters of crimson celestial fire floating by Li Muyang, the weasel did not hesitate and immediately knelt down.

Bowing its head like pounding garlic.

“Please, Dragon God Mother, have mercy, this humble demon was framed by someone else! Please do not kill me!”

The weasel wailed incessantly, desperately kowtowing.

Seeing this, Li Muyang paused, not immediately slaying the demon.

He curiously sized up the giant weasel, saying, “You said you were framed by someone? Who framed you? Why did they frame you?”

The weasel continued to kowtow and cry out, “Please be informed, Dragon God Mother, I originally cultivated in peace at Rabbit Head Mountain outside the borders, never descending to harm the lives of mortals.”

“At most… at most I would deceive the mortals, making them offer me chickens, ducks, and fish.”

“But who knew that not long ago, two wandering immortals came to Rabbit Head Mountain. They said a Dragon God Mother had appeared inside the borders, disrupting the rules of the North Land, but they couldn’t find your whereabouts. They captured me and brought me here, forcing me to harm people nearby to lure you over.”

“Once you arrived, they would immediately come to kill you.”

“The little demon was completely forced, it never killed anyone!”

The gigantic weasel desperately bowed its head repeatedly, “The children kidnapped from the village beneath the mountain, the little demon didn’t dare to eat a single one. I’ve been keeping them well-fed and housed deep within this burrow.”

“Dragon Goddess, please take those children and leave quickly. The moment you entered this cave, those two immortals were already on their way to kill you!”

The weasel wailed continuously, begging for mercy.

Li Muyang, upon hearing this, remained slightly cold.

“Cultivators from beyond the frontier… want to kill me?”

He had vaguely heard the mortals mention before, that beyond the frontier existed a mysterious presence known as ‘Roaming Immortals’.

If one encounters powerful evil beings in the North Land, one might invite the Roaming Immortals from beyond the frontier to drive out the evil spirits, but the cost is extremely cruel.

If not driven to desperation, the mortals of this land would not wish to seek aid from those immortals.

Yet, he had not expected these so-called Roaming Immortals to enter the frontier to kill him… Was it because of his actions hunting down evil spirits in the counties of the North Land that had angered these folks?

Li Muyang looked again at the weasel in front of him, which, though a demon with a strong demonic aura, lacked the aura of bloodshed, showing it rarely, if ever, killed humans.

Li Muyang said, “Where are those children you spoke of? Lead me to them quickly.”

The weasel hurriedly led the way ahead, running through the dark cavern.

Li Muyang followed behind it, quickly arriving at a dark, warm cave.

The cave, covered in dry grass, had seven little children sleeping side by side.

All of them were unharmed, sleeping very soundly.

Li Muyang, seeing this scene, gently let out a sigh of relief.

This weasel actually didn’t harm anyone… This guy is quite clever.

Glancing at the humble and frightened demon in front of him, Li Muyang felt somewhat more favorable towards it.

“According to you, from the moment I stepped into this cave, those two Roaming Immortals were already on their way to kill me?”

The weasel desperately nodded, “Yes, yes, yes! Dragon Goddess, you really should take these children and leave quickly!”

“If those two immortals catch us in the mountains, we are surely doomed!”

Mentioning those two immortals, fear filled the weasel’s eyes.

Li Muyang glanced at it and said, “Come with me.”

As soon as Li Muyang finished speaking, he spat out a wave of water. The flowing wave, as if conscious, gently wrapped around the seven sleeping children and headed toward the cave’s exit.

Seeing this miraculous scene, the weasel was almost in tears.

“Dragon… Dragon Goddess, if those two immortals come back and see I’m gone, I’ll surely be dead…”

Li Muyang, however, was too lazy to waste words with it.

He directly grabbed the demon’s tail and dragged it towards the cave’s exit.

But the moment Li Muyang dragged the weasel out of the cave, the chilling moonlight spread across the mountains.

Standing quietly in the wilderness outside the cave were two slender dark figures.

One tall, one short, they stood under the moonlight yet seemed almost non-existent, nearly imperceptible.

But the instant Li Muyang saw these two dark figures, his heart chilled.

Roaming Immortals…

He immediately understood the identity of these two evil beings.

The scent that drifted through the air was nauseating, putrid, and pungent.

They were the most malevolent beings Li Muyang had encountered so far,

even more wicked and fierce than those evil creatures terrorizing the North Land.

In the cold night wind, the two slender shadows emitted a deep chuckle.

“The Dragon Goddess of Jade Water River… right?”
