Dust Demon? Poison Adept? (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Heavenly Departure Grassland—the sky here was exceptionally blue, and the green grass spread like shade.

Countless Green-Scaled Horses galloped across the grassland, their hooves rumbling like thunder.

Green-Scaled Horses were not rare in Heavenly Departure Grassland, but they were still among the demon beasts most favored by loose cultivators.

Yet the three did not give chase.

Instead, one of them spoke.

"Right. I heard those Daoists are exceptionally cruel in their methods. We'd best not get too close!" another said, still shaken by lingering fear.

All three immediately revealed regretful expressions before fleeing into the distance.

Ever since the Peachwood Demon had gained the ability to pass through certain formations, Ye Jingcheng had explored the Mirage Sand Forbidden Zone
