Transmigrated into ancient literature and killed the male protagonist to succeed

Chapter 223 Heaven is Unkind, I Will Take My Own Responsibility (19)

The cold body gradually warms up...

Not only that, Yunci could also feel the hidden pain deep inside his body slowly recovering a little as the girl's magic power was injected into it...

Even though this was insignificant, Yun Ci was still extremely shocked.

The look in his eyes as he looked at the girl finally showed some truth.

she……

Who is it?
Or……

Is she human?

Could it be a monster transformed from some kind of magical herb called Ganoderma lucidum?
If it was a monster, how could it hide from him for so long?
Nan Yue had no idea that the scholar had thought so much in just such a short while.

She grabbed his hand, and with her other hand, she made a gesture and used a spell to deal with the little demon that was rushing towards her with bared fangs and claws.

"go!"

Nan Yue pulled him to the lake and jumped into the lake without hesitation, "Hold your breath."

Two "plop" sounds.

Master Feng opened his eyes wide, but after a moment of shock, he realized something was wrong.

Since the compass brought them here, maybe Master Fan is in the lake...

After all, this is a different world and cannot be compared with the mortal world.

He glanced at Du Chen and said, "Master Du Chen, I'll leave this little demon to you. I'll go down first."

Du Chen responded with a normal expression on his face, but there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.

……

The lake water was icy cold. Nan Yue swam towards the bottom of the lake. Yun Ci obediently held his breath and followed her.

It didn't take long before it seemed to have broken through an invisible barrier...

As soon as it hits the ground.

Yun Ci then tightly grasped Nan Yue's hand, as if absorbing the only warmth...

The evil spirit had entered his body before, and he had fallen into the cold lake. The scholar's face was pale, and the hat on his head had fallen off at some point. His jet-black hair was soaked, and his long gown stuck to his body, reflecting his figure, which did not make him look thin and weak.

The bottom of the lake was like another world. The azure water above was glowing, and the view was not as dim as in the forest.

Nan Yue transferred a lot of magic power to Yun Ci, preventing him from being invaded by evil spirits for a short period of time.

Then she let go of his hand.

Yun Ci curled his fingers and finally spoke, "Thank you Miss Jiang for saving my life. I have no way to repay you, but..."

The scholar looked into the girl's beautiful eyes with a smile in his eyes, "I promise to marry you."

But the girl frowned, unable to hide her disdain, and sneered, "Are you repaying a favor or seeking revenge?"

It’s troublesome enough to protect him all the way.

He still wanted to trouble her for the rest of her life.

How can there be such a good thing in the world?

Yun Ci blinked, "But, that's what's written in the storybook. A hero saves a beauty, and the beauty gives herself to him, which makes for a beautiful story."

Nan Yue had a blank expression on her face. "I'm not a hero, and you're not a beauty. Stop dreaming."

The scholar wanted to say something, but Nan Yue suddenly made a hissing sound, and hid behind a dark reef. He quickly followed suit.

Two little demons suddenly appeared, holding an unconscious girl in their arms.

One of the little demons sniffed, "Strange, why do I smell a living person?"

Another little demon holding a little girl walked into the depths, "Don't worry about the aura, this is the last little girl, the formation will be completed..."

"What day is it today?" "Forty-eight. After midnight today, it will be the forty-nineth day."

"That's great! We can capture Sunset City and rescue Master Du'e soon."

"Yeah! I've seen that the Lord of Sunset City is unhappy. I'm going to absorb his energy when the time comes!"

"Hahaha, it's you. I'm afraid you won't be able to grab it!"

The little demon's voice gradually faded away. Nan Yue's expression was solemn. Sunset City, Lord Du'e?
The fox demon before also said that he wanted to occupy Sunset City. What grudge do these monsters have against Sunset City?
I thought they were trying to rescue a rich young man, but now it seems that these monsters might have a bigger plan...

"You stay here, I..."

Before Nan Yue could finish her words, the scholar grabbed her wrist.

He looked at her pitifully, "I don't want to stay here alone. I'll be captured by a monster."

"It's more dangerous to follow me." Nan Yue said coldly.

The scholar said firmly: "Take me with you. If you encounter danger, I can block the attack for you."

The girl looked unhappy. She had worked so hard to accumulate merits and used people as human shields. Wouldn't her merits be negative?
A faint smile appeared in the scholar's eyes again, and he said in a gentle voice: "I know that Miss Jiang is kind and upright, and she would not do such a thing, but I am willing to follow Miss Jiang and protect her..."

"It is not gentlemanly to let your savior face danger alone."

"Even though my ability is limited, I want to do my best to help Miss Jiang."

Nan Yue was soft-hearted and could not stand the scholar's tricks. She pursed her lips and said truthfully, "After the battle by the lake, I helped you resist the evil spirit. My magic power is limited now, so you better be careful."

"I know."

Nan Yue stopped talking nonsense and walked in the direction where the two little demons left...

……

The fox returned seriously injured, scaring several monsters in the cave.

"Old Three, what's wrong with you?"

"It's just five people this time. How did you get hurt like this?"

The fox couldn't even transform into a human form now, and said bitterly: "I underestimated that demon catcher. He is obviously very young, but I don't know what evil magic he practiced. He actually cut off one of my tails!"

The big demon in black was the oldest and had great magical power. He frowned and said, "Today is a critical moment. Don't make any mistakes. Heal your wounds as soon as possible. We will need you later."

The fox's eyes widened in disbelief. "Brother, I lost two of my tails because of this incident, and now the only one left has been killed. Do you still need my help?!"

She has been practicing the Three Tails for nearly a thousand years and has endured countless hardships. Now all three tails are lost, and her magic power is being squeezed. How can she bear it?

The big demon in black was about to speak, but the demon in feathered clothes next to him said, "Hey, third brother, why can't you figure it out?"

"Once we rescue Lord Du'e, we will have everything we want. The entire world will belong to us. Then we can attack the heavens and snatch thousands of elixirs from them. Are you still worried that you can't cultivate a tail? Not to mention three tails, nine tails can be cultivated in a breath!"

"Really?" The fox calmed down after being comforted.

"Of course!" said the feathered demon.

"Okay, I'll go check out the formation first. Second brother, take good care of the third brother."

After the black-clothed demon finished speaking, he turned and left, with a dark light flashing in his eyes.

There were only two large iron cages in the dim stone chamber.

From time to time, small sobbing sounds could be heard.

One of the cages was opened, and the children inside shrank into a corner in fear, watching the little demon throw another little girl in...

The little demon stretched out his slender fingers and counted.

"That's enough! Tsk, a few of them starved to death before, otherwise we wouldn't have to look for new ones."

As he spoke, he became particularly impatient, "Stop crying! You will be free soon!"

Hearing this, the children were terrified and hugged their companions.
