The tree demon still looked like a tree at this time, with thorny vines growing out from her body and circling around her.

Demonic power was constantly spreading from her branches and leaves, and from afar one could see ripples in the surrounding miasma caused by the demonic energy.

The tree demon used all of her power to maintain the barrier to attack Zhong Xian and others. Plants were summoned by her continuously, and no matter how hard she tried, there was no end to the killing.

Just when she thought she could definitely kill these foreign monks, she suddenly sensed that someone was approaching.

When she opened her eyes, she found that Yu Xi and Gu An were very close to her.

Only the demons can break through her barrier.

She let out a short scream, and the leaves crowded around her body trembled nervously. When she noticed the characteristics of Yu Xi and Gu An's demon clan, she belatedly said sharply:

"You are the demon race? The demon race actually acts as the lackeys of the monks?!"

After realizing that Zhong Xian and the others were cultivators, she directly activated the barrier and trapped them inside, without noticing that there were demons among the group.

As she spoke, she did not conceal her anger. The vines surrounding her body stretched tightly and pulled towards Yu Xi with a sound of breaking through the air.

These vines have sharp thorns, and one hit from them is enough to cause skin and flesh to burst. This is no joke.

"Senior sister!"

Gu An subconsciously wanted to protect Yu Xi, but his arm felt heavy and he was blocked by Yu Xi first.

Yu Xi ignored the cane and walked forward. When the cane came at her, she didn't even use her floating light, but accurately grasped the cane that was coming towards her face with her bare hands.

She wrapped the vine around her hand with her backhand, and the sharp thorns touched her skin, but because of the protection of the magic energy, it could not hurt her at all.

The tree demon realized something was wrong and wanted to pull back the vine, but Yu Xi pulled it back hard and broke the vine.

The vine connected to the tree demon fell to the ground in severe pain. It wanted to rise up to fight back, but Yu Xi had already stepped on it and crushed it to pieces with his demonic energy in a quick and decisive move.

Her brothers were still trapped in the barrier, and she didn't have the patience to fight with the tree demon.

The tree demon let out a scream after the vine was swallowed by the evil energy, and its entire body began to tremble.

Compared to the spell that trapped them before, the tree demon was much more fragile at this time, and there was not much demonic energy left around it.

"We are not immortal monks, we are demons."

Yu Xi raised his sword and placed it on the tree demon, then smiled harmlessly and said, "Let my brothers out, or I will chop you down right now."

"Are you demons? How did you get in?"

The tree demon seemed to be dazed and hesitant for a moment.

But when her sight fell on the desolate and smelly illusion around her, fear became less important, and her anger was rekindled. Even though Yu Xi's sword was already on her vital points, she still screamed murderously again.

He gathered all his available demonic powers together, condensed several vines with his demonic powers, and attacked Yu Xi fiercely from all directions at the same time:

"The demons are also monks! None of the monks are good, no!"

Gu An saw that the number of vines attacking Yu Xi increased several times at once, and each one was stabbing towards Yu Xi's vital points. His eyes changed slightly, and he wanted to help, but seeing Yu Xi's attitude of not dodging or evading, he still did not make a move. He just stood there quietly with his hands hanging down.

He believed in his senior sister.

This time Yu Xi did not retreat, nor did he pay any attention to the canes.

When the tree demon thought Yu Xi had given up resisting, he discovered that these vines formed by demonic energy not only did not hurt her after touching Yu Xi's body, but all disappeared.

No, it didn't disappear.

It was all integrated into Yu Xi's body.

The tree demon could even feel that his demonic power was being rapidly drained.

Having lost its demonic power, the tree demon could no longer maintain its demon form. Its branches and leaves withered, its vines fell apart, and its body gradually shed its rough bark and transformed into a human form.

The human form of the tree demon is a child who looks slightly older than Yu Xi.

At the same time as the tree demon transformed into a human form, the barrier that trapped Zhong Xian and the others also disappeared. The plants that were constantly emerging from the ground soon lost their aggressiveness and gradually turned into dust and disappeared.

Yu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the barrier disappear.

After absorbing the tree demon's power, she could feel that her cultivation had improved again.

Just when she was about to tie up the tree demon in front of her, he suddenly knelt in front of her, crawled on the ground, and rested his forehead heavily on the ground.

"What are you doing?" Yu Xi frowned.

Who would have thought that the tree demon would excitedly say, "Master Demon God!"

"what?"

Yu Xi looked puzzled.

Gu An also subconsciously looked at Yu Xi.

The tree demon didn't even raise his head, but continued to speak excitedly: "Master Demon God, did you appear because you heard my prayer? I was blind and actually attacked you. You can punish me however you want!"

At this point, the tree demon's voice was choked with sobs, and tears dripped down, soaking the rotten soil beneath him:

"But can you please save my grandpa first? As long as you can save my grandpa, I am willing to offer all my demonic power, including my own life!"

When the tree demon said this, people began to tremble with fear.

She didn't hear Yu Xi's answer for a long time, and thought that Yu Xi was still angry with her, so she immediately kowtowed vigorously and said:

"Please, our tree demon clan has served you, the demon god, for generations, and my grandfather has served you for thousands of years! At least save him, please..."

Yu Xi hurriedly stopped the tree demon from kowtowing. She used all her strength and blood was already coming out of her forehead.

"You got the wrong person. I'm not a demon god. What is a demon god?"

Yu Xi quickly explained: "I am a demon, and I am also half human and half fox."

"Half-demon?"

The tree demon was supported by Yu Xi and could not kowtow anymore. She could only raise her head and look at Yu Xi. When she noticed Yu Xi's fox ears and tail, more tears came out of her eyes.

Yu Xi thought she was crying out of disappointment, but she struggled and kowtowed again:

"Are you really still angry? I know that only the Demon God can absorb demonic power..."

She was crying so hard that she could hardly breathe. "Grandpa said that as long as we pray sincerely, the demon god will help us. I have been praying every day since I escaped. That's why you showed up, right?"

Yu Xi pressed his forehead.

She didn't know why she could absorb demonic power, but she was really just a half-demon.

No matter what she said, it would be hard to explain it now. The tree demon in front of her had already determined that she was the demon god.

She could only calm the tree demon down first.

Seeing that the tree demon was only two or three years older than her and looked only eight or nine years old, she immediately took out the cookies that Nan Lingjun had given her and fed them to the tree demon:

"Would you like to try this first?"

The tree demon ate the most delicious dessert he had ever tasted and was stunned for a moment. Although tears were still flowing, his emotions at this moment were a little more stable than before.

Yu Xi seized the opportunity and asked, "What's your name?"
