Chapter 157: 151. The Fox Demon is Resolved (2/2)

151. The Fox Demon is Resolved (2/2)

The night is like ink, the moonlight like snow.

Accompanied by a gust of evening wind blowing against her face, the woman in the purple dress holds various Talismans covered in runes in her left hand, and a Writing Brush stained with an unknown viscous liquid in her right, crouching on the ground to paint and draw.

As she paints with rapt attention, she mutters to herself unconsciously.

"That despicable and shameless wretch actually lives in this dark, sunless tunnel. No wonder his personality is so sinister and black-hearted; living in the ground like a rat every day, how could he not be dark?"

"Tonight, I will surely return the pain he inflicted upon me the last two times a hundredfold!"

"I will trample his dignity fiercely, make him kneel and lick my feet, and train him into a house slave!"

"Success at last!"

Saying this, the woman in the purple dress stops her brush and stands up gracefully, her stunning, pure-yet-alluring face filled with a morbid smile.

And just at this moment!

Chen An suddenly emerges from the shadow behind her, unleashing an Intentional Bombing Fist to smash fiercely at the back of her head.

Then, only a "Bang!" sound is heard!

The smile on the face of the woman in the purple dress freezes instantly; her head, having suffered a massive force, pitches forward, and her body topples over with it, hitting the ground with a "thud" and rolling several times before barely coming to a stop.

"Who... who is it."

The woman in the purple dress, her consciousness blurred by the punch, lies limp on the ground, gasping out in a dying breath.

Chen An does not give her a chance to recover, charging forward in a single bound, mounting her, and raining punches down on her peerlessly beautiful, nation-toppling face.

"Bang!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Bang! Bang!"

The sounds of punching follow one after another, ringing out continuously.

Fearing that the woman in the purple dress might be beaten to death, Chen An does not dare to strike too hard.

He uses at most seventy percent of his strength, beating the woman in the purple dress until she is nearly unconscious.

Once the woman in the purple dress has completely lost the ability to resist, Chen An spreads his Divine Sense to search her body, intending to empty out the treasures she carries.

However, the woman in the purple dress seems to be wearing a Dharma Artifact that can shield Divine Sense, making it impossible for his Divine Sense to extend inside to search.

There is no other way; he must use the clumsiest and most primitive method: reaching in with his hands to feel around.

Chen An quickly reaches his hand into the clothing of the woman in the purple dress, rapidly feeling up and down inside, not missing a single part.

A moment later, he pulls out several private, close-fitting defensive Dharma Artifacts, but he simply cannot find a Storage Bag.

"Where did she hide the Storage Bag?"

"Could it be she doesn't have a Storage Bag?"

Just as he is puzzled, Chen An's attention is suddenly drawn to a Ring worn on the index finger of the right hand of the woman in the purple dress.

Could it be a Storage Ring, a grade higher than a Storage Bag?

Thinking of this.

Chen An's eyes light up, and he quickly removes the ring from the hand of the woman in the purple dress.

Then he discovers that it really is a Storage Ring!

But he cannot open it; it seems to be a Dharma Artifact that has been bound by blood.

However, such restrictions are minor tricks for a Golden Core cultivator, easily wiped away with Divine Sense.

Soon, with a thought, Chen An wipes away the original ownership information on the Storage Ring.

Afterward, he condenses a drop of Essence Blood and drips it onto the Storage Ring to re-bind it with his blood.

Once the re-binding is successful, he does not waste time and immediately opens the Storage Ring to check.

One look, and he is stunned on the spot.

High-grade Dharma Artifacts, advanced formations, high-grade pills, high-grade Talismans... everything in the Storage Ring is a priceless, high-grade treasure.

Heavens, this fox demon is too rich!

To be this rich at only the Golden Core Mid-stage, she is definitely a second-generation demon!

And a second-generation demon with an extremely powerful background at that!

As for why a second-generation demon with such a background would run to the Red Cedar Forest alone, Chen An has no time to dwell on it right now.

He doesn't even have time to look at the treasures in the Storage Ring; with a thought, he takes out a fourth-grade Dharma Artifact, the "Demon-Binding Rope," and tightly binds the unconscious woman in the purple dress on the ground, restricting her movements.

"I have to say, this fox demon's figure is truly alluring."

Looking at the woman in the purple dress with her curvaceous figure on the ground, a trace of desire cannot help but rise in Chen An's heart.

But soon, this trace of desire vanishes, replaced by a wave of physical discomfort that makes him want to vomit.

It is the "sage mode" taking effect.

After steadying his body slightly and calming the nausea in his heart, Chen An's gaze falls back onto the woman in the purple dress on the ground, and he falls into thought.

Now that the fox demon is subdued, where to imprison her next is a question worth considering.

Imprison her in the tunnel?

No!

That is too dangerous!

If this fox demon were to break free one day while I happened to be out, my wife and daughter in the tunnel would likely suffer.

After thinking it over, Chen An finally decides to find a desolate, uninhabited deep mountain, dig a hidden cave inside, and keep the woman in the purple dress imprisoned there.

Once he successfully joins the Heaven and Earth Sect later, he won't have to worry about her anymore.

Thinking of it, he does it immediately.

Soon, Chen An picks up the unconscious woman in the purple dress from the ground and sets off via Sword Flight, carrying her to find a suitable desolate mountain.

Not long after.

Chen An found a suitable barren mountain.

The soil quality of that barren mountain was poor, with barely a few trees growing on it; it was a forbidden zone for life.

He circled the barren mountain using Sword Flight.

He searched for a location.

Chen An finally landed on the mountainside at the back and spent a little time carving out a hidden cave.

Then, he came back out and carried the still-unconscious woman in the purple dress into the cave.

Next, he took a Draw Ground as Prison talisman from the woman in the purple dress's Storage Ring and set up a Draw Ground as Prison array for the cave to prevent any living beings from approaching it.

After finishing all this.

Chen An found a random spot, sat down with his back against the cave wall, and silently began to inventory the assets in the woman in the purple dress's Storage Ring.

The more he counted, the more shocked he felt in his heart.

With the wealth this woman in the purple dress possessed, even a Nascent Soul titan would likely feel inferior upon seeing it.

It was truly too rich!

Just as Chen An was counting the spoils, the woman in the purple dress lying on the ground gradually regained consciousness.

She slowly opened her eyes, saw Chen An sitting in front of her in a daze, and suddenly realized something, her entire face turning terrified.

"You, how are you here, and where exactly is this?!"

As she said this, the woman in the purple dress tried to stand up from the ground, but her body was bound tightly by the Demon-Binding Rope, and she could not move at all.

Chen An withdrew his Divine Sense from the Storage Ring, looked at the woman in the purple dress before him, and said indifferently, "I haven't done anything to you; I just saw that you, a woman, were drifting outside all alone and felt a bit sorry for you, so I kindly built you a place to stay and collected a bit of rent in advance."
