Chapter 29

After the heavy rain, the lake water flowed very rapidly, rushing downstream with a whooshing sound.

Li Nianfan didn't dare to get too close to the lake, letting Dahei lead the way.

"Woof woof woof!"

Dahei suddenly stopped, turning his head to bark loudly at Li Nianfan.

Li Nianfan's brows furrowed slightly, and he quickened his pace, "Dahei, did you find something?"

He looked into the distance, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

About a hundred meters ahead, there seemed to be a figure lying there.

He didn't dare to delay and hurriedly stepped forward.

To his surprise, it was a naked woman.

Her skin was fairer than snow, her flawless white skin tinged with a faint pink, as if emitting a glow. Her long, black hair hung straight to the ground, her arched eyebrows framed closed eyes, and her long lashes trembled slightly. Her thin lips were as tender and dewy as rose petals.

She was beautiful, exquisitely so.

For some reason, the moment Li Nianfan saw the woman, two words involuntarily came to his mind.

"Disaster to the nation!"

"Su Daji!"

Her beauty even surpassed that of Lin Qingyun and Luo Shiyu.

The woman's eyes opened slightly, watching Li Nianfan approach from a distance, her blurry figure overlapping with a memory from three years ago.

Three years ago.

He was just a fox, and when he was on the brink of death, a figure emerged from the forest, helping him regain his life.

This time, almost the same scene, the figure appeared again.

The woman's lips curved slightly, and a tear appeared in her eyes.

Li Nianfan quickly glanced away, focusing only on her face. Seeing the tears streaming down her cheeks, he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, you'll be fine."

At the same time, he took off his coat and covered the woman's body.

"Mm." The woman softly responded, her beautiful eyes fixed on Li Nianfan.

Not far from there, a snow-white six-tailed fox peeked out from behind a tree.

Tears streamed down its eyes.

"Sister..."

It cried, baring its teeth at Li Nianfan's back.

If it weren't for this man, her sister wouldn't have chosen to take human form and wouldn't have died.

It hated this man to death!

If it weren't for her sister's desperate plea, it would have wanted this man to die with her.

This woman was naturally a nine-tailed fox. Although she had successfully passed the heavenly tribulation, her life force was also scattered by the tribulation, and she could only survive for a month on her last breath.

The six-tailed fox wiped its tears. Although it had promised to spare Li Nianfan, it still had its own thoughts.

It followed its sister's wish and brought her to Li Nianfan, but deliberately didn't dress her, to test Li Nianfan's character. If Li Nianfan had any lustful thoughts, it could have killed him openly!

Unfortunately, when it saw Li Nianfan cover its sister with his coat, it could only clench its teeth in anger, feeling even more sorrow.

Li Nianfan looked at the woman and asked, "How did you end up here?"

"I..." The woman started to speak, but a streak of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, her face as pale as paper.

"You don't have to say anything, just rest for now."

Li Nianfan wiped the blood from her mouth and said, "I guess you were affected by the lightning. There must have been cultivators fighting just now. You should have stayed far away; it's too dangerous."

The woman looked at Li Nianfan and nodded lightly.

"Let's go, to my place. I'll help you treat your injuries." Li Nianfan said with concern.

The woman nodded again.

Li Nianfan rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "Sorry, but in an emergency, I have to do this."

He then picked up the woman and carried her on his back.

This woman should be a mortal like me, a perfect match.

Am I bringing a beautiful wife home?

The cultivation world is too dangerous. She's a mortal woman and so beautiful; she could encounter danger at any time. She'll be safest with me.

Li Nianfan thought about the feasibility of keeping this woman by his side the whole way.

The woman lay quietly on Li Nianfan's back, a smile on her lips, her gaze soft. She was content to be with him as a human, even if it was only for a month.

The six-tailed fox followed behind, watching its sister being taken away by the mortal.

At this moment, within a hundred miles, both cultivators and great demons were in an uproar.

Streams of light shot through the sky, rapidly converging on the place where the tribulation had just occurred.

In the Dry Dragon Immortal Dynasty.

Luo Shiyu looked in the direction of the lightning, her face showing a hint of amazement, and she whispered, "I didn't expect a demon to actually choose to take human form. It's been a hundred years since the last one."

"This demon has abandoned a thousand years of cultivation and risked a great danger to take human form, which is indeed very rare," Zhong Xiu nodded.

For a demon to take human form, the chances of survival are one in ten thousand. It's rare for even one to survive.

What kind of courage does it take to choose to take human form?

"Mother, look in that direction. It's not far from where the great person lives," Luo Shiyu frowned slightly, looking at the horizon.

Zhong Xiu nodded, "It is indeed very close. I wonder if it will disturb the great person's cultivation."

"Mother, this is a big event. Many people will be attracted here. I need to go to prevent anyone from offending the great person," Luo Shiyu said solemnly.

Just as they were speaking, the Holy Emperor hurriedly arrived.

"Shiyu, I'll go with you! The great person's cultivation place must not be disturbed!" The Holy Emperor's tone was firm and brooked no argument, "This is the will of the entire Dry Dragon Immortal Dynasty!"

Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu were taken aback.

"Father, aren't you going to see where the demon is taking the tribulation?" Luo Shiyu asked.

Now is undoubtedly the most vulnerable time for the demon taking human form. If they could find it, it would be an immense treasure.

The Holy Emperor shook his head, "Although a demon taking human form is rare, compared to a great person, it's nothing. For a great person to choose to live in our Dry Dragon Immortal Dynasty is an honor for the entire dynasty. If they leave because of a disturbance, the loss would be great!"

Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu nodded in agreement.

If the great person left the Dry Dragon Immortal Dynasty in anger and went to live elsewhere, it would be a loss for the entire dynasty!

"Let's go together!" Zhong Xiu also said hurriedly.

They didn't dare to delay.

Immediately, the three highest-ranking people in the Dry Dragon Immortal Dynasty set out quietly, heading towards Li Nianfan's residence without disturbing anyone.
