The Demonic Man

"You court death!" Zhouzhou exclaimed furiously, abandoning all pretense of civility. She thrust her peachwood sword towards him with sudden force.

Seeing her, Old Li was taken aback. Wasn't this the child he had seen in the cemetery during the day? How had she come to be here?

But since she had arrived, she wouldn't be leaving. Old Li licked his lips, his eyes glinting with greed as he looked at Zhouzhou. She was so young, her lifespan would likely extend for decades, providing him with ample use.

With this thought, he suddenly raised his hand and threw a talisman towards Zhouzhou. Qin Xu's face tightened, and he prepared to intervene, determined not to let Zhouzhou come to harm while saving his son.

However, Qin Lie stopped him. Qin Xu turned his head in confusion, only to hear Qin Lie say, "Don't go."

"But Zhouzhou..." Qin Xu worried for Zhouzhou's safety.
