Turning Wine into a Blade to Slay the Cat Demon

Fang Zelin hung behind these people; it was already dark by then.

The people in front carried torches, barely illuminating the surroundings.

A group of people walked into the mountains.

After a short while, they arrived at a valley.

"Your Majesty, we have brought the people we brought today to you. When can you return our children to us?"

As soon as the words fell, a group of people knelt down in a flash.

Old Zhang in front of him did not kneel down, but simply stared indifferently at the somewhat profound distance ahead.

"These are the people you are to sacrifice today?"

Upon hearing this, there was finally a response from the front.

A gigantic cat demon slowly emerged at that moment.

His green eyes gleamed in the darkness, and a fierce glint appeared in his eyes as he glanced at the old man beside him.

"Yes."

Upon hearing the question, the villagers of Zhang Family Village immediately spoke tremblingly.

"Are you trying to fool me? This old codger, trying to chew my teeth?"

As the cat demon finished speaking, it opened its mouth, revealing a set of fangs.

"Your Majesty, if you are not satisfied, there is another person in the village. We will send him to you right away. He is young and handsome, and you will surely like to eat him."

The woman standing nearby trembled with fear and immediately knelt down to answer.

"Shut up! I said I'm here to replace him, you can't mess with him!"

Upon hearing this, Old Zhang became furious and shouted at the woman who had spoken.

The woman, however, remained undaunted by these words: "I'd rather die than let my child be saved!"

"I'm so sorry for what I did to you all today. If there's an afterlife, I'll be your servant!"

At this moment, all she could think about was her child, wondering if he would survive.

As for the rest, she had long since forgotten about them.

"What's all this noise about! You're ruining my appetite, can you afford to take responsibility for that?!"

The cat demon let out a strange cry, which shocked all the villagers present, causing them to fall to the ground in agony and writhe in agony.

Fang Zelin couldn't stand it anymore; who could say he still didn't quite understand what was going on?

But if we capture this cat demon, we'll have plenty of opportunities to torture it later.

"You monster, how dare you!"

Fang Zelin shouted sharply and lightly leaped from behind, landing in front of the villagers.

The cat demon lowered its head, warily eyeing the person before it. "Who are you?"

"Those who cultivate the Dao have heard that a demon seems to have emerged in Zhang Family Village, and today I see it is indeed so!"

Fang Zelin had no intention of wasting words with the cat demon; he only wanted to capture it first.

Thinking of this, Fang Zelin flicked his sword finger, and the words in the wine gourd immediately flew out.

Seemingly sensing a strong Yao Qi, the small seal script immediately emitted a bright, shimmering light.

There was no water to be seen on either side.

Fang Zelin, feeling a pang of heartache, tapped the bottle again, and a sip of wine immediately flew out, then condensed into a small knife.

This cat demon looks like it has a hundred years of cultivation.

Fang Zelin pondered for a moment, and then the three small seal characters were attached to the small knife formed by the wine.

In an instant, the originally clear and bright wine knife suddenly shone brightly, and before the knife even flew to the cat demon, it had already dispelled the Yao Qi surrounding the cat demon.

Upon seeing this, the cat demon let out a sharp cry, its fur bristling.

He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of green mist towards Fang Zelin.

"Disease!"

Fang Zelin didn't hesitate at all. He pointed at the cat demon, and the throwing knife immediately flew towards it.

Before the cat demon could react, the dagger had already pierced through its body.

A flash of light appeared on the blade, and beneath the light, the cat demon let out a shrill scream before its body melted away.

However, in just a moment, the cat demon had already turned into a puddle of water.

"Huh? A demon with a hundred years of cultivation, so easily defeated?"

Fang Zelin was about to draw out another blade, but stopped when he saw this.

Judging from this, using three small seal characters to deal with the cat demon is unnecessary.

If we need to deal with demons who have cultivated for a hundred years, using two small seal characters should be enough, right?

Fang Zelin pondered for a moment, then suddenly noticed the spot where the cat demon had died, where dozens of souls were wandering.

It looked as if it had emerged from the cat demon's belly.

The villagers of Zhang Family Village stood there dumbfounded.

They were still in the dark when this young man suddenly appeared.

Then, after opening the gourd, he condensed water into a blade that could fly, and then slew the cat demon in front of him.

"Your child's soul has been taken away?"

Fang Zelin looked at the remnant souls before him, then glanced back at the villagers.

"Yes, yes, our child's soul has been captured by the cat demon. They say that we must offer one person every day, and only after offering seventy-one people will they release our child."

Upon hearing this, the woman beside him immediately knelt down at Fang Zelin's feet and kowtowed repeatedly, pleading, "Immortal Master, please save my child!"

Seeing this, the other villagers also immediately knelt down and begged for help, kowtowing repeatedly.

She only wanted to save her child's life.

Fang Zelin sighed upon hearing this, "Alright, your children should be fine. Take the torches, call out your children's names, and walk home. When you reach your doorstep, call out, 'We're home!'"

"Do you understand?"

In the Comprehensive Regulations of the Underworld Bureau, there is a practice called "calling back the soul."

The spirits of these children are right here; their relatives can simply call them back.

Fang Zelin watched from the side to make sure nothing unexpected happened.

The villagers were overjoyed upon hearing this, and they quickly kowtowed again, then called out the names of their children.

Fang Zelin watched carefully from the side, and after the spirits began to call out, they started to follow.

Fang Zelin lagged behind, and only after returning to the village and seeing the children's spirits return to their respective homes did he feel relieved.

Fang Zelin didn't put away the dagger that had killed the cat demon; he felt it was a bit dirty.

The knife hovered beside Fang Zelin Fang Zelin, following him into Zhang Family Village.

After a moment's thought, Fang Zelin arrived at Old Zhang's door and flicked his finger.

A small seal script character flew out from the wine knife and landed on the door lintel.

Then Fang Zelin arrived at the village's local Land God Temple.

Before Fang Zelin could even call out, the Earth God appeared on his own.

"This humble deity greets the Immortal Master."

The Earth God glanced at the gleaming little knife flying beside Fang Zelin, which was now emitting a dark glow, and stood respectfully before him.

"Is there a cat demon causing trouble here? Are you lacking in divine power to protect the villagers?"

Fang Zelin looked at the Earth God, but didn't immediately berate him for being incompetent.

He could tell at that moment that the local earth god in front of him was not as powerful as the cat demon from before.

Upon hearing this, the Earth God nodded somewhat ashamed and said, "Your Excellency has such discerning eyes; this humble god is already finding his abilities insufficient to guard this small plot of land."

"The cat demon led the villagers out of Zhang Family Village, leaving the lesser deity with no way to intervene."
