Liaozhai Great Sage

But then again.

Nie Xiaoqian has cultivated such a skill, and she is not forced by life.

If he didn't have the ability to shine, he would have been treated as dispensable cannon fodder by the dryad's grandmother, and would have been killed at some point.

"There is movement underground..."

Suddenly, not long after Li Xiuyuan walked into the back mountain, he felt a slight vibration coming from his feet.

It seemed that a big python was walking under the soil, causing the ground to vibrate slightly.

He is a master of martial arts, his body has already cultivated strength, and he has a very keen perception of every move around him, even a mosquito landing on his body, not to mention the movement from his feet.

"So, this tree demon is hiding underground." Li Xiuyuan immediately realized it in his heart.

Soon, following Nie Xiaoqian, he came to the dense forest in the back mountain.

The trees here are also strange, as if they all disappeared overnight, leaving a huge open space.

And there is a luxurious and exquisite mansion on this open space. Inside the mansion, there are rockery and flowing water, corridors and pavilions. It can be said that even the gardens in Suzhou, Jiangnan are much inferior. To build such a house, in addition to In addition to spending a lot of money, it will take at least ten years to do it.

But this mansion appeared out of thin air within a day.

Looking at the red lanterns hanging everywhere in the mansion, the red light came out, which seemed particularly strange and terrifying in this dark forest.

"What a thousand-year-old monster." Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly.

This luxurious mansion looked different in his eyes.

The entire mansion is made of coiled tree roots, the courtyard wall is made of densely packed small tree roots intertwined, the rockery inside is transformed from grave mounds, the flowing water is just a dirty stream in the forest, and the gazebo is just a dead tree. The big trees and the palace buildings are just stones and wooden piles.

It's all fake, all illusions.

"Mr. Li, what are you still standing there for? The servant's mansion has arrived. Come in quickly."

Nie Xiaoqian urged, but saw that her face had shown a bit of fright, as if she had been targeted by the tree demon's grandmother.

Seeing Nie Xiaoqian's expression, Li Xiuyuan knew that he had been secretly watched by the tree demon.

"Hehe, just come, just come."

He smiled, and immediately strode towards the changed mansion of the tree demon.

The tree demon didn't seem to know that besides ghosts and gods, he also had the ability to see through all illusions.

These ordinary changes and tricks are about to be revealed in front of him immediately.

"This scholar has already entered the tree demon's lair, and we are ready to attack at any time."

In the dark, Yan Chixia watched Li Xiuyuan walk into the ghostly mansion from a distance, and immediately said in a low voice.

"Don't worry, as long as there is any movement, I will kill him. He saved my life. Naturally, I will not let him be killed by the monster, but this scholar is really brave. He dared to face the tree demon alone. "Xia Houwu said a little nervously.

After all, he is not a cultivator, and he has no ability to subdue demons and demons, and only relies on the sword in his hand.

"He has the heart to eliminate demons and protect the way, to help the world and save people. Naturally, he is not afraid of evil spirits and dangers. This kind of heart is not something ordinary people can have." Yan Chixia said, and she also admired Li Xiuyuan in her heart.

After all, this tree demon has nothing to do with him, so there is no need to fight to the death with the tree demon.

But Li Xiuyuan's reason for wanting to exterminate the tree demon is very simple. This tree demon has done evil and will harm the world and the people in the future, so he has to get rid of it.

Chapter 248 The Old Demon of Montenegro

Inside the mansion on the mountain behind Lanruo Temple.

"Mr. Li will come here to have a cup of tea first, and the servants will go to take a bath and change clothes first, and then come back to accompany Mr. Li."

Nie Xiaoqian forced a smile, left Li Xiuyuan in a room, and quickly left with a sway.

Then, two beautiful maidservants came over and brought tea and water.

Li Xiuyuan took a look. These two beautiful maidservants were just two mummified corpses with grim faces exuding a heavy yin energy.

The tea in front of me was just black muddy water, with strange insects beating in it.

"Interesting." He smiled lightly, but he was ready to fight the tree demon.

At this moment, after Nie Xiaoqian left, she was entangled by a tree root before she had gone far, and was dragged into a room.

One door after another opened, as if it were endless, and finally flew a full distance of tens of feet before stopping, and then Nie Xiaoqian fell heavily on the ground.

A middle-aged male and female stood there with a smile on his face: "Xiaoqian, you did a good job, and you did not disappoint grandma. You lured that Li Xiuyuan here."

"This is what I should do." Nie Xiaoqian hurriedly said respectfully.

"Crack~!"

However, the tree demon grandma turned around and slapped her violently, knocking her to the ground: "But Xiaoqian, you have disappointed grandma again. Don't think that grandma doesn't know what you and Li Xiuyuan said. Let Li Xiuyuan know about the trap I set up, and let him come here with you according to his plan, so that you can save me from grandma, and when grandma dies, you will be free and unrestrained, right? "

Nie Xiaoqian was shocked when she heard the words, and trembled all over: "Grandma, grandma, I definitely don't have such thoughts."

"Hey, no, how can you hide it from me with a little thoughtfulness, but I don't expect a little trap to kill this Li Xiuyuan. His ability is not simple, but it doesn't matter, even if he knows that I want to kill him, so what He still came here after all, hey, hey, this Li Xiuyuan is too big, he came to my territory, it may not be the winner."

The dryad's grandmother restrained her violence and let out a series of strange laughter.

She couldn't see Nie Xiaoqian's thoughts, but she didn't point it out, anyway, it's enough to achieve the goal.

"Since grandma knows everything, please let me go, I have already brought Li Xiuyuan and fulfilled my grandma's entrustment." Nie Xiaoqian said with fear and fear.

"You are useless to me. I will give you to the old Heishan demon as a gift today. He just needs a beautiful concubine." The tree demon grandma smiled heavily.

Nie Xiaoqian's face turned pale with fright. Although she didn't know who the Black Mountain Old Demon was, she knew from the name that she was also a thousand-year-old demon. To be his concubine would be bad luck.

"Grandma, Xiaoqian is loyal to you, you should keep Xiaoqian and don't give me to the old demon of Montenegro." Nie Xiaoqian knelt down and begged for mercy.

"The matter has been decided, and you can't go back on your word, get out."

The dryad grandma heard it, and with a wave of her hand, dense tree roots gushed out around her, bound Nie Xiaoqian, and dragged her down.

"There is no need to prepare a gift for me so soon. Li Xiuyuan is not as easy to kill as imagined. Even if we work together, we may not be able to do it."

Suddenly, a hole was opened in the surrounding walls, and a tall, stone statue whose body was condensed from countless broken stones walked in.

"I have fought against Li Xiuyuan before. It is a little tricky, but it is just a little special. His life is extremely expensive, ghosts and gods can't get close to his nine-foot range, and spells seem to have no effect on him, but he is just an ordinary person. You don't necessarily need spells to kill someone sometimes," said the dryad grandma.

The old Heishan demon said: "You only know that ghosts and spirits are not close, but you don't know why he is not close. You have spent thousands of years near Guobei County, and you really don't know anything about it."

"So, you know this Li Xiuyuan very well?" the tree demon grandma asked.
