Delicate and Fair, Skin Like Congealed Fat

Luo Zhou looked back!

He saw a young girl, standing behind him, tilting her head as she looked at him!

The girl was young, beautiful, and exquisite, with fragrant skin like jade, fair and tender, smooth as cream. Her beautiful eyes darted about, like autumn waves, her bearing exceptional and utterly captivating!

Luo Zhou let out a breath, pointed at her, wanting to say something, but unable to speak. He could only force a laugh.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like you've seen a ghost?"

The girl asked again, imperiously!

Luo Zhou gasped for air, then said, "You scared me to death! A few days ago, I asked a ghost the same question. When you asked me like that, I thought the ghost crawled out of hell to get revenge on me!"

"You, you look so clean and pure, why are you cursing so viciously?"

Luo Zhou quickly said, "No, no, I'm telling the truth, I swear to heaven!"

Inside, he was filled with unease!

He recognized this girl. From Li Haitian's memories, she was the City Lord's daughter, Fang Ningshuang.

Those Demons and Devils, the Blood Parrot, were her pets.

He had messed up this time!

According to Li Haitian's plan, he found a place unmonitored to lure the Blood Parrot. But he forgot a crucial point: the Blood Parrot had an owner!

For the past few days, the Blood Parrot had been well-fed. But it was a Demon and Devil, and how could a Devil's pet not have a contract with Fang Ningshuang?

So, when the Blood Parrot was full, Fang Ningshuang also knew someone was feeding her Blood Parrot. How could she not come to check?

He had been caught by the wronged party!

The reason for all this was Li Haitian.

Li Haitian, from the bottom of his heart, never took the Blood Parrot seriously. He only saw it as a beast, a Woodworm Devil with no skill. He had always looked down on them!

His mindset had unknowingly influenced Luo Zhou. This plan was inherently flawed.

Just seeing Fang Ningshuang, Luo Zhou knew his life was in her hands!

Fang Ningshuang's strength was terrifyingly super. Although she was only at the Qi Refining stage, she was the most fearsome person Luo Zhou had ever met.

She could kill the old Crocodile Dragon!

This was an intuition. Luo Zhou's soul, his divine sense, even every cell in his body, was warning him!

Move, and you die!

Fang Ningshuang looked at Luo Zhou, tilting her head, lost in thought.

"Are you the trial-taker from the sect that everyone's talking about?"

Luo Zhou was stunned. Trial-taker from the sect? He shook his head, indicating he didn't know.

Fang Ningshuang suddenly reached out, and a staff on Luo Zhou's back was in her hand.

Luo Zhou had no reaction at all, no time for any reaction!

Fang Ningshuang squeezed hard, and the staff shattered, revealing the Dragon-Slaying Thrust inside. She gently touched it and said, "Still saying you're not? Isn't this the Dragon-Slaying Thrust from Jian Chenlun of the sect?"

Luo Zhou couldn't help but show a surprised expression: "Ah?"

So, he wasn't the only one who mastered the Dragon-Slaying Thrust? And there was Jian Chenlun in the sect who also mastered the Dragon-Slaying Thrust?

The sect? Which sect? The Heaven and Earth Dao Sect?

"Trial-taker or not, a Head-Exploding Devil from a Dragon-Slaying Thrust is obviously a trial cultivator from Jian Chenlun. How many Devilish Cultivators have you killed? How much of your trial is left?"

Luo Zhou really didn't know how to answer, so he continued: "Ah?"

"Looking down on people? Playing dumb? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're from the sect!"

Fang Ningshuang pouted, looking very angry.

The delicate girl's expression was incredibly cute, making everyone unable to look away.

But Luo Zhou's head was about to explode! Because his Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil felt Fang Ningshuang's true thoughts in her mind:

"Kill him, kill him, kill him..."

This thought was the same as Zuo Sanguang's telepathy.

Zuo Sanguang's was a plea for help, a soft cry from a single person.

But Fang Ningshuang's telepathy was like the roar of thousands!

An utterly mad wail, not even human screams!

Looking at the cute girl, she was actually a mad Devil!

A true mad Devil, Luo Zhou felt like a normal, good person compared to her after killing those Woodworm Devils!

She was desperately seeking an opportunity, to find her own fault and use it to kill him.

Luo Zhou smiled, "Friend, Dragon-Slaying Thrust is not easy to refine. Can I have it back after you're done?"

With that, he looked at Fang Ningshuang with a smile, neither servile nor overbearing!

Perhaps dying like this would be dignified!

Fang Ningshuang looked at Luo Zhou, and the frenzied sensing in her mind suddenly dissipated.

"This kid is quite good-looking, tall and slender, like a green pine..."

The endless killing intent vanished in an instant!

Luo Zhou felt even more afraid at this moment.

What normal person acted like this!

She was truly deranged, truly mad!

Luo Zhou was immensely grateful to his teacher at this moment.

Hinoki Force User, Bamboo-Thin Pine-Slender, being good-looking really gave one an advantage with girls. She didn't want to kill him anymore...

"What are you thinking?"

Luo Zhou cupped his fists and said, "Heaven and Earth Dao Academy Class Three Luo Zhou, greetings, Princess. I was fishing for birds!"

Fang Ningshuang said nothing, only staring at Luo Zhou.

"Why can't I see what you're thinking?"

Hinoki Force User, Bamboo-Thin Pine-Slender, like a pine tree, tenacious and unyielding. Luo Zhou resisted most of her Spiritual Power, a sensing-type spell.

Luo Zhou smiled but didn't answer!

"Why do I want to get close to you, to be near you, why don't I want to kill you anymore!"

Could this be the Bamboo-Thin Pine-Slender's instinct for a good perch? As a large pine tree, would avian creatures naturally be drawn to him?

Her spirit beast, Blood Parrot, was a bird after all. Was it influencing her in return?

But he had to answer this!

Luo Zhou smiled and said, "Because I am kind!"

You couldn't have a normal conversation with a lunatic like her!

To his surprise, Fang Ningshuang actually nodded in agreement.

"You kid, are very Monster-like. I can't see through you, and I like you...

Most importantly, you're not afraid of me?"

Suddenly, Fang Ningshuang's heart was filled with boundless rage again, like the roar of thousands.

"Why aren't you afraid, why aren't you afraid of me!"

"They're all afraid of me, afraid of me! My brother, my sister, my father, my master, they're all afraid of me!

Why aren't you afraid of me, why aren't you afraid of me!"

"Kill him, kill him, kill him..."

She was having an episode again!

He absolutely couldn't let her continue thinking.

Luo Zhou pointed at the sky and said, "Look at that cloud, doesn't it look a bit like a horse?"

Nonsense, just to interrupt her!

Fang Ningshuang's thoughts vanished. She looked at the cloud.

"That's just a cloud, a cloud is a cloud, how could it look like a horse?"

"If you look at it this way, aren't those the horse's legs? And that's the horse's head? Your angle is wrong..."

The angle is wrong? She suddenly lay down on the ground, looking up at the sky, at the cloud.

Luo Zhou shook his head and, ignoring the dirt on the ground, lay down beside her.

"Look closely, isn't that a horse?"

Pointing at the cloud and calling it a horse!

"No, what horse? Isn't that a steamed bun?"

"A steamed bun? How can I feel like it's a high mountain."

"Are you blind? That's a steamed bun..."

The two chatted idly, back and forth.

During this time, Fang Ningshuang had two more episodes, her heart filled with the urge to kill Luo Zhou. Both times, Luo Zhou managed to deflect her intentions with a change of topic.

The most crucial factors were Luo Zhou's Hinoki Force User, which resisted mental intrusion, attracted birds, and made him handsome, along with the Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil, which allowed him to hear her inner thoughts. This was how he managed to avert danger each time.

However, for some reason, Luo Zhou felt a peculiar sense of familiarity towards Fang Ningshuang.

It was an innate, natural feeling, as if he understood her intimately, like a childhood friend, a confidante of many years.

This was why he could resolve every crisis in time.

As time trickled by, Luo Zhou suddenly stood up and said:

"It's late, I have to go home. If I'm back too late, I'll get scolded!"

Fang Ningshuang asked pitifully, "Will you come back tomorrow?"

Luo Zhou listened to her inner thoughts. She was having another episode. If he said he wouldn't come, she would die!

"I'll come, I must come!"

With that, he snatched back his Dragon-Slaying Thrust.

This was a treasure refined over nine years of true qi.

"I'm leaving, see you tomorrow!"

He left without looking back.

Fang Ningshuang watched Luo Zhou depart, and her heart erupted again:

"He's ignoring me and ran off!"

"Kill him, kill him, kill him..."

Luo Zhou, already far away, pretended not to hear.

If she wanted to attack, she would have done so already. He had saved his own life!

In truth, Luo Zhou's inner clothing was already soaked in cold sweat.

As Fang Ningshuang disappeared from view, Luo Zhou vaguely heard the urge to kill him change.

"Kill me..."

In a daze, a figure flashed. A young girl, delicate and fair-skinned, with skin like congealed fat, her beautiful eyes shedding silent tears!
