The cat master of this seat

Song Shiyue took a sip from the teacup, looked at Yao when he heard this, and cut to the chase: "Do you know Hui Yao?"

"Hui Yao?"

"It's the inflammation in your mouth." Yun Chi added.

Yao looked down at a fine white petal floating on the fragrant tea, and slowly recalled the past.

Yan is a tree demon, and Mr. Yuan grew up near the cave where Yao Hou hid.

In the past, because Yao was a half-monster with a fatal weakness, he was often bullied by other monsters. He didn't dare to fight back, and usually swallowed his anger.

The other monsters worked even harder, often pouring water on Yao's body to beat him back to his original shape.

They knew that Yao didn't like killing people, and they wouldn't absorb human souls, so they deliberately grabbed a half-dead person and brought him to Yao, forcing him to suck that person dry.

Yao didn't want to, so the group of monsters rose up and attacked him, even urinating on him, forcing him to show his original shape.

At that time, Yao was still just a little black dog, curled up on the ground like that, bearing their punches and kicks silently.

When he was dying, a few tree vines stretched out from the dark place, wrapped the little black dog up, and dragged him into the hiding place. The group of demons couldn't find him, so they let him go.

Afterwards, he hid in the cave with Yao, and used his own leaves and vines to create a secret space for him.

Since then, Yao and Yan have become good friends.

It was only later that Yao found out that he Yan had a secret to hide from him.

Ordinary monsters suck the essence of human beings as a way of cultivation to improve their cultivation.

However, Yan practiced the art of soul-stimulation in private, which captured the souls of spiritual cultivation and transferred their cultivation level to himself. The people who were soul-stimulated would not die, but the lost souls were lifeless.

Slowly, Yao found out that something was wrong with him, and had no choice but to stay away after repeated dissuasion to no avail, but Yan died after ingesting too much soul and exploding his body.

The body was buried by Yao himself, just a year ago.

"But I sensed the breath of Yan from that person, that is what you call Hui Yao."

Yao is very sure: "I will not admit my mistake, it is the breath of Yan."

"It's just that for some reason, he seems to have aged a lot."

The more Yao spoke, the more uncertain he became: "It seems that... a different body."

change body?

Yunchi had a bold guess in his mind.

"When you saw the black robe in the east wall, your state was not right, why?"

Yao frowned, hesitating a bit: "When I saw him for the first time, I felt very familiar, even though he was wearing a mask. It's strange... I thought he was Yan."

"But the breath on my body was completely different, so I was very confused at that time."

Yun Chi narrowed his eyes, and expressed his conjecture in his heart: "Besides the spirit-taking, there is also a technique of changing spirits, do you know?"

"Change souls?!"

Yun Chi turned to look at Song Shiyue: "Which one do you think is the real Hui Yao? The former subordinate of the Demon Lord."

Song Shiyue narrowed his eyes: "The Huiyao I saw from the beginning was hunchbacked. It's just that he disappeared for a while before Mozun passed away a year ago, and he came back later. I was not familiar with him before, so I couldn't Find something unusual."

Both Huiyao are wearing masks, and their outfits are very similar. If the black robes also bend down, people who are not familiar with them will definitely not be able to tell the two people apart.

"A year ago, Huiyao disappeared for a while, and the time of Yan's death happened to coincide." Yun Chi tapped the table lightly with his fingers bent.

"Master, do you think that Hui Yao and Yan exchanged souls?"

Yun Chi nodded, but he was still not sure, because the danger of changing spirits was too high, and the uncertainty was too strong. Under normal circumstances, there was no need to do so, unless...

"If there is something wrong..." Song Shiyue thought back: "I remember that Huiyao's health has always been poor, and he often coughed up blood in front of everyone, but it seems that this has never happened recently. I just thought He has taken care of it."

But if the soul becomes healthy because it puts a good body on the soul, it is justified.

Yao began to become a little dazed again, he pressed his temples, and seemed to try to calm himself down, his voice trembling a little: "You are talking about changing souls... What are the signs?"

"Before changing the soul, you need to soak in water for seven days and seven nights, which symbolizes washing away the filth of the past and starting over. After the change, there will be marks on your body." Yun Chi said, frowning.

Both of them are wearing masks, could they be hiding something other than covering up their appearance?

Listening to Yun Chi's words, Yao's expression became more and more serious, "The latter doesn't know, but the former...he did it before he died."

"No." He suddenly smiled bitterly: "Perhaps it should be called 'deception'."

It's just that he couldn't figure out why Yan would do this.

"So Yan's soul is now in that old body, and Hui Yao's soul is living in Yan's body?"

"No wonder the breath of the person I recognized at first sight didn't match."

The moonlight slowly moved down, but the few people were silent for a long time.

After a long time, Yao finally spoke.

"So, you have to kill him before those people can be saved, right?"

Yun Chi was silent, Yao looked at Song Shiyue.

The latter looked at Yun Chi and finally nodded emphatically.

"He and I once swore to cultivate hard on our own. Not all demons will harm people, we have to rely on our own true abilities. I don't know what happened to him, and how he exchanged souls with Huiyao , but I believe that if we go back to the days we agreed in the past, he will definitely not want to do such a thing.”

"So, as his friend, I should stop him."

Yao stood up: "If he must die, then I hope to see him off for the last time, just like I buried his bones back then."

As soon as the voice fell, Yao had already turned into a cloud of black smoke and dissipated in the air.

Yun Chi pressed his brows, his chest was full of emotions, he should breathe a sigh of relief, but he couldn't relax no matter what.

"Master, this is already the best result." Song Shiyue held his hand and squeezed it carefully.

***

Yan was injured, coupled with his old age and chronic illness, the two of them couldn't walk fast at all.

Following his breath, Yao caught up with them.

"The mere little demon also wants to stop me?" Hui Yao sneered, and placed Yan's remnant body aside at will, flexibly using this young and healthy body.

Worried that Lingyun Immortal Venerable would come after him, Hui Yao didn't want to tangle with him, but just wanted a quick fight, so he released [-]% of his demonic energy to suppress him.

The black cloud seemed to be pressing down a bit, it was so heavy that it was almost suffocating, the wind was rumbling, and the surrounding leaves fell down, hovering on the ground, but they never fell.

The green leaves visibly withered and yellowed until they turned black, and in the end, as if they had been sculpted by the gods, an arrow point was born, facing the direction of Yao, like a sharp knife out of its sheath, and struck him with lightning speed.

The silhouette is reflected in Yao's dark pupils.

"Puff puff--"

"inflammation!"
