After following the bird for a certain distance.

Chen Yuan discovered that only he could see this bird.

He was originally worried that the bird flying over the busy city would cause a sensation among ordinary people.

Now it seems that he thought too much.

The birds flew in front, Chen Yuan chased behind, but Wu Qingping followed behind Chen Yuan.

Soon the two of them left Pingliang County and continued traveling southeast.

"Brother and sister-in-law, you can cut and even almost kill the fox demon who can turn into human form. Are you not an ordinary person? Are you also a practitioner?"

Chen Yuan asked Wu Qingping who was following him.

He has long been curious about the true identity of his brother-in-law Wu Qingping.

"I am not a spiritual practitioner."

Wu Qingping shook her head.

"I was born in a small family in the south of the Yangtze River. I practiced swordsmanship passed down from my family since I was a child. I have been making waves in the world since I was twelve or thirteen years old. I have gained some fame in the world by helping those in need."

"Later, I met your brother, and after we made a private decision for life, I put my sword away in the cabinet and just wanted to be an ordinary woman who supports her husband and raises her children."

Wu Qingping explained.

"It turns out that my brother-in-law is a chivalrous woman."

Chen Yuan suddenly realized.

"I never knew before that my brother and sister-in-law had such a hidden side."

Chen Yuan said a little surprised.

"I asked your brother not to tell you. Anyway, everything in the past is in the past."

Wu Qingping said.

Chen Yuan thought for a while and stopped worrying about this issue.

Perhaps her brother-in-law Wu Qingping was tired of the fighting and killing in the past and wanted to live a peaceful life again, so it was reasonable to ask her brother to help her hide the fact that she was once a chivalrous woman.

"Brother and sister-in-law were able to almost kill a fox demon in disguise. Their martial arts skills were no small feat back then, right?"

Chen Yuan asked again.

"It's not that I'm strong, but that fox demon is too weak and hasn't developed magical powers. I killed countless little monsters when I was wandering around the world."

"But when I encounter a real big monster, I have no choice but to run for my life."

Wu Qingping shook her head.

Chen Yuan nodded secretly, this is the truth.

Just like the turtle demon he and the monk Shimo Teng got rid of for Mr. Li a few days ago, the same is true.

In fact, monsters, whether they are breath-taking, demon pills, or in the realm of transformation, are almost all weak to humans.

Except for some monsters with extraordinary talents and who are at the top of the food chain, such as tigers and leopards, black bears, ordinary gas-eating, demon pills, and monsters in the realm of transformation, they can only do some small tricks that are not even spells.

Once these little tricks are encountered by practitioners or mortals who know the weaknesses of monsters, they can be broken.

Some monsters that are naturally weak can even be caught by ordinary people. Such cases are not uncommon.

Of course, the big monster Wu Qingping talks about is another matter.

While talking, the two walked southeast for two hours, covering nearly thirty kilometers.

Before the sun was about to set, they came to a barren mountain one hundred and seventy feet high. The trees were not very high, but very lush.

"The sun is going to set!"

Looking up at the sun that was setting on the horizon, Wu Qingping said to Chen Yuan.

"Let's go into the mountains."

Chen Yuan said without hesitation.

One "tracing charm" can only be used for one hour, and he only drew three tracking charms, which means that if they can't find the fox demon within three hours, they will have no choice but to go home.

With the flame bird leading the way, there is no risk of getting lost. But the problem is that the flame bird doesn't know how to find the way. It just flies straight to the target.

It doesn't care whether it's a river or a cliff.

Ordinary people would have been thrown away by this flame bird. Fortunately, Chen Yuan and Wu Qingping, one is a chivalrous woman and the other is a practitioner in the elixir realm. They are agile in movement and have abundant physical strength. In the end, they followed closely.

Behind the bird.

……

Deep in the barren mountains.

In a cave covered by weeds and about seven feet high.

"How many times have I told you not to go out and cause trouble, but you insist on going out. It's okay now. You almost died in it!"

In the center of the cave, on a huge stone platform covered with bedding, lay a gray fox with a sword wound in its abdomen.

Around the stone platform, there are more than a dozen foxes of different fur colors, all guarding the stone platform with concern. An old woman wearing a double-breasted blue robe with gray hair and a black bead on her forehead was lying on the stone platform.

The fox on the stage was applying medicine while chattering.

"She is greedy for people's energy, but she doesn't want to think about whether people's energy is so good?"

An old man sitting on a stone bench next to him, with a somewhat hunched back, was smoking a welding pipe, wearing a slanted gown and with triangular eyes.

"In the city outside, there are not only the ghosts and gods under the command of the Yins City God, but also Buddhist and Taoist practitioners. Even if you don't meet these people, with your meager Taoism, you will still be able to meet a more powerful knight or country hunter.

It’s a matter of death.”

The old man took a big puff of tobacco and puffed away the smoke for a while before continuing.

"Dad, I just met a powerful woman this time. I'm afraid she is a knight. Who would have thought that a person I just found would have such a powerful woman at home. I will never go out next time."

The injured gray fox lying on the stone platform opened his mouth, but it was the voice of a young woman, who was a little weak and afraid.

If she hadn't used the enchanting fox fragrance to confuse the man's mind and let him protect her at critical moments, she would have been stabbed to death by the man's wife with a sword.

"There's still next time!"

"Fortunately, I only met a chivalrous woman this time. If you were an expert in Buddhism and Taoism, you might die without knowing how."

The old woman applying medicine to the gray fox's airway.

"Although the human essence is good and can speed up the cultivation of our fox demons, it also depends on whether you have the ability to take away this essence."

The old man sighed.

"You all should remember this. Your second sister is a warning to you. You should not risk going to the city again in the future. If you are really too greedy and can't stand it, you can at most hook up with a man or woman in the countryside to replenish your energy."

The old man did not forget this lesson, guarding a bunch of foxes next to the stone platform.

"Got it."

"Dad, don't worry."

"With the lessons learned from the second sister, we will never follow in the footsteps of the second sister."

Some of the foxes in the group spoke human language, while others cackled.

These are dumb foxes, who make up the majority.

"Wrong."

At this moment, the old man suddenly stood up, and the dry tobacco pole in his hand fell directly to the ground, but he rarely picked it up immediately.

"What's the matter, old man?"

The old woman said puzzledly.

"I suddenly had an uneasy feeling in my heart. I'm afraid my second son may be in trouble this time."

The old man looked solemn and said.

"Let's go, let's leave here immediately. If we don't leave, it will be too late."

Then the old man immediately made up his mind.

The reason why he survived so many years as a demon and gave birth to such a large brood of children was entirely because of his caution.

"I want to leave now, but I'm afraid it's too late!"

At this moment, a bird with flames all over its body flew in from outside, and a woman carrying a sword and a man carrying a sword box walked in from outside the cave together.

Seeing this scene, the faces of the fox demon family changed.
