Chapter 942: Seeing Qianshou Xian Again

"Shut up, kneel down." The old woman was furious: "Useless thing."

Thump, Lu Yuanzhong didn't even dare to think, he knelt directly on the ground.

"Immortal, I am truly sorry. This dog thing had eyes but couldn't see and offended you. Please, you must not be angry. If you really can't let it go, I will swallow him myself," the old woman said respectfully.

"I remember, your name is Qianshou Xian, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, yes, the Immortal still remembers my name." Qianshou Xian looked flattered, and she knelt on the ground, weeping with gratitude.

"Although you haven't continued to do evil since you came out, the people of the Lu Family have been acting recklessly under your name. Do you know how many people have been killed by the Lu Family over these years?" Chen Yu asked.

"I, I don't know. I didn't tell them to harm anyone," Qianshou Xian said with a mournful face: "It is they who were fox-borrowing-the-tiger's-might, using my name to harm people."

"Is that so? Without this wisp of Demon Essence you bestowed upon Lu Yuanzhong, how could he have acted so recklessly? So, tracing the Karma, it is still your fault," Chen Yu said indifferently: "What do you say should be done about this matter?"

"I, I..." Qianshou Xian stammered and couldn't say a word. Suddenly, she said sharply: "You dog thing, daring to mess around using my name, I will swallow you today."

As she spoke, her figure suddenly expanded, then transformed into a trail of black smoke. This black smoke condensed into a bloody mouth in mid-air and lunged fiercely toward Lu Yuanzhong's figure.

The black smoke enveloped Lu Yuanzhong's figure, and then a scream came from within. A moment later, the black smoke floated upward, and Lu Yuanzhong, who had been kneeling on the ground, had already turned into a bloody skeleton.

With a flash of black smoke, Qianshou Xian transformed back into the image of an old woman. She knelt on the ground and begged: "Immortal, after I came out, I only ate the flesh and blood of livestock; I truly have never harmed any humans."

"Those who acted recklessly using my name were all foster sons I took in the past. I haven't appeared for a long time, and many things I didn't even know about. I beg you to spare me," Qianshou Xian pleaded.

"You still dare to quibble?" Chen Yu sneered: "Although you haven't done evil since you came out, the evil these people committed started because of you. Tracing the Karma, it is still your Karma. Spit out your Demon Essence now and start your cultivation over."

"No, Immortal, my Demon Essence is almost condensed into a Demon Core. If it is destroyed, all my previous efforts will be wasted." A look of fear appeared on Qianshou Xian's face.

"Will you do it yourself, or shall I help you?" Chen Yu stared at this Qianshou Xian and said.

A strange look flashed in Qianshou Xian's eyes. She suddenly said sharply: "Chen Yu, don't bully people too much. Seizing someone's Demon Essence is harmful to nature; aren't you afraid of damaging your hidden virtue?"

"I have plenty of hidden virtue, so damaging a little doesn't matter. Besides, a thing like you who acts recklessly has harmed so many people; seizing your Demon Essence is also removing a scourge for the world. Will I damage my hidden virtue?" Chen Yu sneered.

"Seizing my Demon Essence is equivalent to taking my Life. Either way is death, so I will fight you to the end." Qianshou Xian suddenly shrieked, then her figure swayed, revealing her true form.

A giant centipede, as thick as a python, suddenly poked out its head. It sprayed white smoke and attacked Chen Yu. Its two fist-sized eyes blinked with green light, looking extremely terrifying.

It was fortunate that usually no one dared to come to the Lu Family Ancestral Hall. If someone came and saw this situation before them, they would be scared to death.

Qianshou Xian's true form was a centipede, which was inherently highly poisonous. Coupled with her hundreds of years of cultivation, the poisonous gas was earth-shattering. With a flash of white smoke, several large trees as thick as a person's embrace in the courtyard withered instantly, and the small birds on the trees that didn't have time to escape fell to the ground with stiff bodies.

Unfortunately, Chen Yu had long since become immune to all poisons. Even if this poisonous gas was Demon poison, it had no effect on him.

"Overestimating yourself." Chen Yu sneered. He grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen suddenly appeared.

Chen Yu gestured with his right hand, and Lichen soared into the sky, then transformed into a sword edge in mid-air. The sword edge whistled as it arrived, attacking Qianshou Xian.

Qianshou Xian's body had been floating in the void, but six streaks of Sword Light struck down. Her body stiffened, and with a thud, she fell to the ground, simultaneously creating a large pit in the ground.

A miserable, earth-shattering scream came from the large pit. After a round of bombardment, Qianshou Xian immediately gave in.

Lichen was seen hovering over Qianshou Xian's hard skull. This creature had cultivated for hundreds of years, and her head was already as hard as iron. Ordinary guns and ammunition couldn't cause her much damage, but as long as Lichen in Chen Yu's hand moved, it could immediately make her brains splatter.

"Since you won't hand over your Demon Essence and even dare to fight back, it means your fierce nature hasn't been removed. Today, I will simply remove this scourge for the people and end your life." Chen Yu sneered. As his hand moved, a streak of Sword Radiance from Lichen attacked, about to extinguish Qianshou Xian's Life.

Just at this moment, a timid voice came over: "Uncle, don't hurt Grandma."

Chen Yu was slightly stunned. He looked back and saw that, he didn't know when, a little girl of five or six years old had appeared behind him.

This little girl was disheveled and dressed in rags, looking as if she had come out of a slum.

Although her little face was a bit dirty, it couldn't hide her innocent and cute appearance.

This little girl was human, but she was stained with a trace of Demon Power, likely because she had lived with Qianshou Xian.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned. He turned his head and asked Qianshou Xian: "Where did this little girl come from?"

"Cough, cough..." A cloud of dust passed, and Qianshou Xian transformed back into the image of that old woman.

She was seriously injured now and originally had no way to transform into human form again, but in order not to scare this little girl, she forced herself to transform and squeezed out a trace of a smile.

Chen Yu was slightly stunned. This heinous Qianshou Xian could actually show such an innocent and kind smile; this made Chen Yu feel it was incredible.

"Yinyin, Grandma is fine, don't be afraid." Qianshou Xian hugged the little girl.

"Uncle, don't hurt Grandma, she is a good person." Tears swirled in Yinyin's eyes, making one's heart ache to see.

"What exactly is going on here?" Chen Yu looked at Qianshou Xian.

"Immortal, can't you see if there is anything special about this little girl?" Qianshou Xian asked.

"Nine Extremes Body." Chen Yu furrowed his brows, looking at Yinyin carefully, and only after a long time did he blurt it out.

"Yes, Nine Extremes Body. Some cultivators with crooked minds would refine this kind of body into a Cauldron, which helps with cultivation. This little girl's family was persecuted by villains, and she was originally destined to become a Cauldron."

"But I met her by chance and saved her. I think she is smart, clever, and very cute, so I wanted to keep her by my side."
