The dense forest at midnight was already eerie, and with quite a few corpses accompanying him, even though Wencai had been chasing corpses for days, he was actually a little spooked.

But he was young, and always wanted to save face. Even though he was scared to death inside, he just stubbornly refused to say it.

"The dead pass on, the living avoid."

"Jingle jingle."

Here, Wencai shook his bell while urging the walking corpses forward with hops.

Suddenly, his vision blurred, and a white figure flashed before his eyes.

However, the white figure moved so fast that he couldn't see it clearly at all.

"What was that?"

Muttering to himself, Wencai looked around, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings, but he found nothing.

Wencai shook his head, thinking he had seen an illusion, and immediately continued to shake the bell in his hand, moving forward.

After walking for a while longer, as he passed a bend, Wencai's eyes suddenly went wide.

It turned out that not more than ten meters ahead of him, a woman with a charming face and thin clothes was leaning on the ground, her snow-white thighs fully exposed to Wencai's sight.

Even as Wencai saw the woman for the first time, seductive music still lingered in his ears.

"Young master, come here."

With lightly parted lips, the woman in white, born with innate charm, spoke softly, her soul-stirring voice reaching Wencai's ears.

But surprisingly, apart from a flicker of surprise in Wencai's eyes when he first saw the woman, even as she unleashed all her seductive tricks, he remained as steady as a mountain, even stopping his forward progress.

After feasting his eyes, Wencai directly shouted loudly.

"Senior brother, get up and work, there's a fox spirit blocking the way."

This shout startled the white-clothed woman not far away.

What kind of development was this? Had her charm spell failed?

As the white-clothed woman was wondering, she suddenly saw another person jump out from behind the foolish young man opposite her.

This person was dressed in short clothes, looking very energetic, and possessed a thick aura of pure yang, which was simply a feast for her.

The moment the white-clothed woman saw Qiusheng appear, she couldn't help but stick out her delicate tongue, lightly licking her lips, her seductive demeanor becoming even more astonishing.

But all of this was completely meaningless to Wencai.

As a disciple of the Daoist sect who cultivated the Golden Dragon Locking Jade Pillar and showed extraordinary talent in this technique, Wencai now had the will but not the strength.

As for Qiusheng, with his Heavenly Eye opened, he had already seen the true appearance of the white-clothed woman before him.

No matter how beautiful the fantasy was, he still couldn't do anything with a fox.

"Hmph, a mere fox demon, I knew you weren't human at first glance."

"You dare to show off in front of this Daoist priest, you're asking for death."

Qiusheng didn't waste any words, directly exposing the true form of the white-clothed woman opposite him, then his magic power surged, and he instantly moved more than ten meters, appearing beside the fox demon, reaching out to grab her by the neck.

"Hmph, so it's a bull-nosed Taoist, no wonder you have such a pure yang aura."

The fox demon snorted coldly, and naturally wouldn't be captured so easily.

Without any visible movement, a white dress suddenly surged up in front of Qiusheng, directly obscuring his eyes and blocking his punch.

"Lightning Bolt Fist."

Seeing his punch blocked by the white dress in front of him, Qiusheng's magic power surged again, and instantly, countless electric lights erupted, instantly blasting the white dress under his fist into scattered pieces.

As the dress tore, a white fox with three tails appeared.

This white fox was pure white, with only two blood-red eyes that looked particularly terrifying.

"Hmph, beast, you have indeed taken human lives."

"Today, I will capture you and scatter your soul."

Upon seeing the white fox's true form, Qiusheng no longer held back. He unleashed the full power of the Lightning Bolt Fist, and instantly, infinite lightning flashed within the dense forest, like divine punishment descending upon the world.

Seeing Qiusheng's might, the white fox was greatly alarmed. Suddenly, it shook its tail, and a snow-white fox tail fell to the ground. Illusions suddenly appeared before Qiusheng.

This was the white fox's innate life-saving divine ability. At the cost of breaking its tail, it could maximize its illusionary talent. Generally, it would not be used unless it was a matter of life and death.

After all, for the white fox demon race, one tail was equivalent to a hundred years of cultivation. To break off a tail meant to deplete a hundred years of their cultivation.

The price was not small, but fortunately, although the price was high, it did have a miraculous effect.

Qiusheng was now trapped by the white fox's desperate act of breaking its tail, completely ensnared within the illusion before him.

At this moment, in Qiusheng's consciousness, he was lying on a bed with the delicate Ren Tingting by his side.

Ren Tingting was dressed in a phoenix coronet and robes, lying beside him.

And he himself was also dressed in a festive red robe.

"I'm getting married?"

Qiusheng's first thought was this, and then his head felt dizzy, as if in the blink of an eye, decades had passed.

At this moment, he was already withered and aged, standing alone before a tombstone.

Ren Tingting's photograph was affixed to the tombstone.

Looking at everything before him, Qiusheng felt only a dizzying heaviness in his head, his heart consumed by sorrow.

The person who had accompanied him his entire life was gone just like that, leaving him alone to live a life of bitter solitude in this world; how could one not be overcome with grief?

But just at this moment, a strange voice resonated within the depths of his heart.

The voice was very faint, so faint that he had to concentrate with all his might to catch even a glimpse of what it was saying.

"System..."

"System..."

Amidst the ethereal, drifting sounds, Qiusheng only managed to make out those two words.

"System?"

"System!"

"That's right, where is my system!"

In an instant, the dizzying sensation in Qiusheng's head vanished, and he began to frantically call out for his system in his mind.

Outside, White Fox saw that Qiusheng had been ensnared by her innate divine ability and immediately prepared to leave.

But then she reconsidered; her century of cultivation had been spent in vain, and if she were to return empty-handed like this, it would be a massive loss.

Her gaze flickered, and she immediately locked onto Qiusheng, who was currently standing there with a vacant expression.

With a flash of her figure, she began to flee toward the distance, while a white silk ribbon flew from her body, binding Qiusheng's body and dragging him toward the depths of the dense forest.
