Chapter 2282: Chapter 2281: Subduing You, Demon Woman

Bai Ruozhu burst into laughter after she spoke, her laughter sounding extremely arrogant and sinister.

Qiu Zhi was shocked, grabbed by the wrist, wanting to say he couldn’t use such a method to save his master, that his master wouldn’t agree, but he found he couldn’t struggle at all, and couldn’t even speak!

He stared at Bai Ruozhu in horror, this, this is demonic magic, he shouldn’t have believed this woman would keep her word to save his master!

Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but chuckle at his gaze. She knew the young Daoist surely thought she used demonic magic, but it was just a bit of poison, nothing about demons. They probably always imagined subduing demons and driving out devils, bewitched themselves.

Furthermore, she noticed Qiu Zheng’s condition as soon as she entered. It wasn’t a serious illness, but not minor either, because it was a heart illness.

Perhaps he couldn’t prove that Master Pudeng was a demon, or Master Pudeng was alive and he couldn’t beat him. When the man passed away, he was bullied by a few of his relics, which then gave him this mental illness.

A heart ailment must be cured with heart medicine, which is simple to say, just renew his will to live.

So Bai Ruozhu used this antagonistic tactic.

As expected, it wasn’t long before Qiu Zheng struggled back on his feet, spat out the blood in his mouth, and pointed at Bai Ruozhu, ”Demon Woman, you won’t harm us master and disciple with this method. I must subdue you today!”

”Calling yourself an expert in slaying demons, yet you can’t even tell humans from demons, what demons are you catching?” Bai Ruozhu slapped away his pointing finger unceremoniously and said, ”I don’t have time to waste with you. If you’re not convinced, come and catch me, if you can’t, I’m leaving!”

Qiu Zheng grabbed the monster-reflecting mirror from the bedside in anger, directed it towards Bai Ruozhu, ”Demon, where do you think you’re escaping to?”

The monster-reflecting mirror can reveal a monster’s true form. If it’s a general demon, it might get sucked in by the mirror, but as Qiu Zheng cast the mirror over, Bai Ruozhu showed no reaction and continued swaggering out.

He hurriedly looked into the mirror himself, and by now Qiu Zhi could also move, quickly moved to view the mirror, and clearly saw a woman, she was unquestionably human!

”This, this...” Qiu Zhi was dumbfounded, ”Just now she even used demonic magic on me, how could it be...”

Qiu Zheng tossed the monster-reflecting mirror aside, and said somewhat vacantly, ”I was wrong.”

”Master, you’re better? You haven’t been affected by demonic magic?” Qiu Zhi hurriedly checked, found Qiu Zheng’s Daoist powers intact, and no signs of evil aura, finally relaxed.

”This, what on earth...”

Qiu Zheng seemed to have thought of something, hurriedly told Qiu Zhi, ”Relay the message, don’t stop her!”

Qiu Zhi was stunned, then realized his master referred to Bai Ruozhu.

Bai Ruozhu wasn’t worried about being stopped by Dragon Tiger Gate, she could just hide in Space, but her primary concern now was to contact Achun and the others, to save them from worry.

Luckily soon, Dragon Tiger Gate people dared not stop her, Bai Ruozhu smiled, seems that old Daoist figured it out.

She signaled as soon as she exited the mountain gate, indicating she was safe and heading to regroup with them.

To quicken her pace, Bai Ruozhu released Xiaohei to carry her forward, fortunately, the route was wild, sparsely populated.

Early the next morning, Bai Ruozhu successfully reunited with Jiang Yichun and the others.

”Ruozhu, are you okay?” Jiang Yichun rushed over on seeing her, examined closely, then pulled her into his arms.

Originally, Gao Zhou and the others stopped in their tracks, while the innocent Yizi still wanted to go forward, Gao Zhou lightly coughed, signaling Jianqi with a glance.

Jianqi hurriedly pulled Yizi back, whispered to her, Yizi blushed and stopped moving impulsively.

”I’m fine, that Qiu Zhi used spells desperately and dragged me to Dragon Tiger Gate, wanting to exchange his life for his master’s, thinking I’d save Qiu Zheng.” Bai Ruozhu blushed slightly with him holding her, struggling yet unwilling to part.

Just then, she overheard Jianqi speaking to Yizi beside her.

”The master and lord are reuniting, speaking in private, don’t go being a third wheel.”

Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched, is this still the aloof Jianqi? Even learning about being a third wheel, he’s surely been overtaken by the joker Muyu?

She nudged Jiang Yichun, hinting others were peeping at them. Jiang Yichun reluctantly released her, yet his big hand secretly pinched her waist, his wife was shy, but he deserved some compensation, right?

Bai Ruozhu’s face heated, blushing as she continued, ”I saw he was filial, so I helped, but they mistook me for a demon, even using the monster-reflecting mirror on me.”

She couldn’t help but laugh as she recounted, ”Seems the Daoists of Mount Longhu are quite amusing.”

The group couldn’t resist laughing, watching people mistaken for demons, surely they were catching demons until they got dumb?

”What demons are there in this world? They are probably so desperate due to having nothing to do, resorting to such behavior?” Fo Lanying teased.

”Anyway, they won’t trouble us again, let’s continue toward Capital City!” Bai Ruozhu recounted some details, then hurried everyone to proceed.

...

Meanwhile, at Dragon Tiger Gate, Qiu Zheng said with a face of shame, ”Zhi’er, it’s I, at my age, failing to see clearly, instead putting you in danger. You forcibly using spells harmed your meridians too severely, afraid it’s difficult to advance in Daoism hereafter.”

”Master, don’t say that, it was my decision. If I had spoken better with Bai Ruozhu, this might not have happened. Reflecting on my manner when inviting her, it indeed felt somewhat condescending.” Qiu Zhi admitted in shame, though now appearing much better.

”The master was bewitched inside, she probably noticed it, used that method to provoke me, otherwise I might already be dead now.” Qiu Zheng shook his head in remorse, ”My lifetime’s regret is failing to reveal Pudeng’s true form, but thinking back, it was my own obsession, my own heart demon.”

”Master, as long as you’ve figured it out, the sect still needs you in charge, you cannot fall ill.” Qiu Zhi had a slight smile, glad his master regained vigor.

”But I wish to venture outside, staying within the sect probably won’t enhance my Daoism, rather go out and explore, perhaps chance upon opportunities to change my current situation.” Qiu Zhi said, lowering his head, ”I want to find Bai Ruozhu, as I pledged to repay her with my life, she does not want my life, so I will serve her for ten years, not breaking my vow.”

Qiu Zheng was stunned, showing reluctance, but quickly nodded, ”Bai Ruozhu is someone of great fortune, serving her could bring opportunities to you, but remember, remember...”

He paused, ”Do not fall for her!”

Qiu Zhi’s face flushed to his neck, ”Master, what are you implying, Bai Ruozhu is a married woman, am I that kind of person?”
