"Senior Brother Gu, I heard you want to seek blood revenge on someone?"

The fox girl rested on the Buddha statue's shoulder, her slim legs in black stockings and boots swinging. She squinted her lovely eyes and smiled sweetly at Gu Wanglan.

In an instant, alarm bells went off in Gu Wanglan's mind.

This aura of seductive witch was unmistakable - it must be the infamous Pleasure Demon who had long terrorized the Western Regions!

Some said the Pleasure Demon was a voluptuous elven beauty addicted to poison...

Others said she was an elusive fox girl who liked to catch naughty children who stayed up late at night...

Now that Gu Wanglan saw her with his own eyes, it was clear the fox version of the Pleasure Demon was the real one!

The elven race of the northwest forests had always been known for their nobility and elegance, which didn't fit the image of a poison addict at all.

But the fox race, long famous for their seductive arts, sounded much more in line with the concept of "pleasure" just by name!

"I think I've seen you at Wuji Sect before..."

"Are you really the legendary Pleasure Demon? So you've been hiding in Wuji Sect all along?"

Gu Wanglan spoke cautiously and with heightened alertness.

On the Buddha's shoulder, the fox girl was briefly stunned, then broke into a sunny, cheerful smile: "What do you think~"

"Wait! I think there may be some misunderstanding between us!"

Gu Wanglan felt a chill down his spine as her bewitching eyes kept staring at him.

He lowered his voice, racking his brains to ingratiate himself:

"I'm actually an undercover agent for the Full Moon Cult, and historically, the Full Moon Cult has had no grudges with the Witch Tea Party. Moreover, our Holy Maiden is even considered a member of your Witch Tea Party!"

While he spoke politely to build rapport, his right hand secretly gripped the sword at his waist, ready to fight at any moment.

As Gu Wanglan's words faded, the main hall fell into eerie silence once again.

The fox girl tilted her head, yawning sleepily, her tone languid and melodious: "Are you done with your nonsense?"

"I was waiting for my illusion spell to take effect, but what were you waiting for by stalling for so long?"

As she finished speaking, a playful and mocking smile tugged at her lips.

It seemed that in an instant, the fox girl dropped all pretense, and the kaleidoscope of illusions hidden deep in her red crimson eyes shone brightly without disguise.

At the same time, Gu Wanglan realized he suddenly couldn't move!

"You—!"

He grew more anxious, breaking out in a cold sweat.

What he thought were life-saving words to buy time had instead enabled the Pleasure Demon's illusion spell!

If he had just run away, perhaps her spell wouldn't have had time to take effect.

"Damn it..."

Veins popped on Gu Wanglan's forehead.

"Everything I've done was by the Holy Maiden's orders!"

"If you kill me, the Holy Maiden won't let you off!"

"If you really are the Pleasure Demon of the Witch Tea Party, don't you know the Life Witch?"

Gu Wanglan's body was completely under control, and all he could do now was continue trying to build a connection with the Pleasure Demon.

But the fox girl kept yawning, walking towards him with an unchanged expression.

"Alright, alright, I know you're Liuli's dog..."

"If you really die someday, please make sure she comes to [Pleasure] for revenge."

She smiled mischievously, finally stopping in front of Gu Wanglan.

Facing his desperate expression, Jinyue raised her hand, releasing a pattern of illusion magic.

Although Gu Wanglan gritted his teeth in resistance, his consciousness ultimately couldn't withstand the witch's illusion, and he lowered his head, falling unconscious.

*Tap, tap, tap...*

"Damn it..."

As a few drops of bloody tears fell to the ground, Jinyue finally closed her enchanting eyes in pain.

She leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, and rested by the Buddha statue for a long time.

"Today I've been exhausted by Yino, you're really lucky!"

She said through gritted teeth, sounding somewhat weak.

When she had recovered some energy, Jinyue supported herself again, opening her bloodshot eyes with blurred vision, and stood up in front of the blank-faced Gu Wanglan.

"Moreover, why would I kill a good toy like you, just help you correct your memory a bit."

"Alright, clear your mind, let's reimagine - how could the harmless little junior sister possibly be the deer thief?"

"The one who really rescued the nine-colored deer."

"Shouldn't it be the talented young swordsman from the prophecy, who dreams of being a great hero and is favored by destiny?"

"After all, is there anyone in this world who fits the role of a heroic young man saving a beauty better than him?"

As she finished speaking, Jinyue smiled mysteriously.

After setting up the hypnotic illusion, she no longer paid attention to the unconscious Gu Wanglan, instead turning to look at the pre-dawn night view outside the mountain temple.

"In the past, I didn't believe it either..."

"But tonight, I found that there really seems to be someone in this world who can defy fate."

...

...

...

"Achoo—_—!"

Early morning, just as the sun was rising.

Chen Jianxin, who had gotten up early to diligently practice swordsmanship, suddenly shivered.

He curiously looked back, but the messy room behind him was still empty.

"How strange."

"Senior Brother Gu said he'd come find me to practice swordsmanship in the morning, but..."

"Where on earth did Brother Gu rush off to so early in the morning?"

...

...

...

Morning, when the sun was already high in the sky.

But halfway up Ranmo Peak, the white-robed young man still refused to get up.

Yino was truly exhausted to the point of vomiting.

Ever since saying goodbye to Jinyue at four in the morning, he had returned to Ranmo Peak early and started climbing the mountain.

But with Yino's Foundation Establishment strength, he could handle fighting breeding worms with technique, but he really couldn't endure long-term aerobic exercise like mountain climbing.

However, at four in the morning when it was quiet and dark, Yino was too embarrassed to call Yuyan to pick him up for a sword ride.

So, he could only grit his teeth and climb the mountain with the little deer following behind.

But by the time Yino was completely exhausted and lying flat, he suddenly realized that the little white deer behind him was full of energy, showing no signs of being out of breath—

"Wait, Wangxue, is your stamina this good?"

Yino raised his head, looking at the little deer with surprise.

"Meh!"

The little deer raised her face, looking quite proud.

Seeing her so energetic, Yino couldn't help but smile and say: "As a good friend, how can you bear to watch me freeze to death halfway up this mountain?"

"Meh?"

"So, for the rest of the mountain path, why don't you let me ride you!"

As he said this, Yino beamed with joy and suddenly got up to hug the little deer.

Instantly, the little deer's eyes were full of disdain, turning her face away haughtily and shaking her head vigorously, like a little princess from the snowy north.

"Bad little sheep! Bad little sheep!"

Yino pointed with his hand, immediately not having it.

"We just went through life and death together at the mountain temple! We've only been together for such a short time, and you're already looking down on your lifesaver and the world's best friend?"

He spoke righteously, and his previously exhausted body suddenly found new energy.

The more the nine-colored deer disdained him, the more he rubbed against her. Even if it meant clinging to her legs like a burden, Yino was determined to stick to this divine deer today.

The man and the deer, like a bickering couple, made a fuss halfway up Ranmo Peak for quite a while.

At some point, the little deer stopped struggling and raised her already reddened face. Its nine-colored glazed antlers also radiated powerful waves of spiritual energy—

-No——-

-Stop rubbing your face against me!!!-

-I'll carry you, okay!-
