Work hard for the shadow guard

Ying Jiu slashed several times on the black tentacles with a short knife, but the tentacles were as hard as iron, leaving no scratches.

In an instant, the two of them were dragged into another cave. This cave seemed to have just been dug out, and the smell of damp soil came over their faces.

Ji Yuheng and Ying Jiu were thrown to the ground, and when they took a closer look, there was a huge black python in front of them, with a pitch-black body and a golden mark on its forehead.

Yingjiu was shocked, the golden seal python in the demon realm!How would it appear here?It can be seen that its cultivation base is at least above the golden core period.

Ji Yuheng had just finished performing "Flowing Gold Over the Sky" and exhausted all his physical strength. Now he can't even beat a gopher, let alone the giant python in front of him that is several levels higher than the gopher at first glance. .

He held Ying Jiu's hand, leaned against the damp wall, and watched every move of the python in front of him vigilantly.

"Why did I catch two, which one is the one I want to kill?"

The boa constrictor spit out dark red snake letters, and the sound came from the snake's belly.

In order not to attract attention, Yingjiu wore white clothes that were similar to the uniforms of the disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, so Jinyinxuanbo couldn't tell which one was the heir of Mozun for a while.

He can speak human words!Ji Yuheng was shocked, "Are you a monster?"

If I remember correctly, he was the one who was tied up by the python just now, and Ying Jiu followed him in.

"For you have vision," the boa constrictor spat out the snake letter again, "Since two of them were caught, let's kill them all."

After all, the boa constrictor opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Ji Yuheng and Ying Jiu. Ying Jiu grabbed Ji Yuheng's waist and quickly dodged.

Seeing that the sharp fangs of the boa constrictor are about to bite the owner, it is not an option to continue like this!

Yingjiu gritted her teeth and moved Ji Yuheng behind her. A complicated magic seal was condensed between her hands. The many seals on her body were released, and the magic power that had been suppressed for a long time reached its peak in an instant.

The Jinyinxuanbog in front of him is the cultivation base of the peak of Jindan. In the eyes of the Second Highness Ji Chu, it is more than enough to deal with Ji Yuheng in the foundation period and Yingjiu who needs to suppress the magic power.

But he didn't expect Yingjiu to open the restriction on himself at the risk of being discovered.

Yingjiu is the most powerful of this group of shadow guards. The other shadow guards are generally middle-level or high-level Golden Cores and can be assigned to their masters. Only Yingjiu has been practicing to the peak of Golden Cores.

It's just that because he hasn't passed the shadow guard assessment, everyone underestimates his strength, otherwise he wouldn't be assigned to the illegitimate child of the human world who is the least valued.

Although the punishment nails on the back restricted part of Yingjiu's strength, his devilish aura was exposed, and relying on the innate suppression of the demon race on the demon race and his superb cultivation, he killed the mysterious python to the ground within ten moves.

Ji Yuheng looked at the posture when Ying Jiu put him down, watching his shadow guard suddenly filled with black demonic energy, his movements were several times faster than before, and he could hardly see his figure clearly. His subordinates couldn't even walk for a stick of incense.

If Yingjiu had shown her current strength just now at the gopher base camp, she might be able to wipe out dozens of gophers with one move.

The huge golden-sealed black python was cut into several sections by Ying Jiu, completely losing any signs of life, and a golden ball quietly floated on the dead python's body.

Yingjiu didn't look at the corpses and demon pills on the ground. He looked at Ji Yuheng nervously, and found that his master was looking at him with heavy eyes, and there was something unclear in his eyes besides shock.

Yingjiu's heart skipped a beat, has the master discovered his identity as a demon?

He touched his forehead subconsciously, great!The demon horns are not exposed, maybe the master didn't notice it, maybe I can make up another lie to deceive the master.

He is willing to do anything as long as his master doesn't hate him.

However, Ji Yuheng's next sentence shattered Yingjiu's last hope.

"Are you a demon?"

Ji Yuheng's voice was light and light, with a trace of exhaustion after exhaustion.

But such a voice seemed to weigh heavily on Yingjiu, hitting Yingjiu's heart word by word.

Whether she was in the Immortal Sword Sect or passing through various cities in the human world, Yingjiu could clearly feel that humans and demons had accumulated grievances for many years, and everyone was eager to get rid of the demons.

Ying Jiu followed Ji Yuheng's line of sight to look at her collarbone, and found in despair that countless black magic lines had climbed up his body like vines, entangled all the way to the side of his face.

The master finally found out. "Owner."

Ying Jiu knelt on the ground with a bang, all the deceit and concealment before was intentional, he had no way to defend himself, he only hoped that Master Nian would not abandon him in his previous service.

Ji Yuheng thought of the books he had read, "The demons have horns on their heads, black stripes all over their bodies, scantily clad, brutal and strong..."

All bullshit!

In his imagination, the demons are no different from uncivilized savages, how can they be as delicate and lovely as Yingjiu in front of him.

"Cough cough" Perhaps he had been accidentally injured just now, so Ji Yuheng clenched his fist and coughed twice.

"Master!" Seeing that Ji Yuheng was injured, Ying Jiu anxiously walked forward on her knees, hoping to come to the master's side.

"Don't move!" Ji Yuheng couldn't see Yingjiu kneeling, let alone kneeling. These days, he managed to raise him less respectful, and he recovered all of a sudden.

Yingjiu heard Ji Yuheng's voice of refusal, and stopped slumped. He is a demon that everyone hates, and he has been hiding his identity to stay by the master's side. The master is already wary of him.

Ji Yuheng suppressed the inexplicable itchiness in his throat, and walked slowly to Ying Jiu.

Ying Jiu looked up at him, her black pupils became bigger due to the transformation of demons, which made her look a bit pitiful.

The loyalty in his eyes was the same as before, but this time there was a little bit of panic about being abandoned.

Yingjiu's identity is abnormal. In fact, Ji Yuheng has already noticed it, including the Qiwu Villa, which he has never heard of, which is also full of doubts.

But Yingjiu didn't want to say it, and Ji Yuheng didn't want to force him. Sometimes people are very strange, but they can trust a person inexplicably.

Maybe when he put away Yingjiu's whip and antidote, he was defenseless against him.

Ji Yuheng pulled Yingjiu up, so that the eyes of the two were even, "Ajiu, I need an explanation."

The sound of "Ajiu" made Yingjiu's pupils tremble, and the magic patterns on her body disappeared like the tide receded, and the dilated pupils returned to normal.

The master did not give up on him, the master still called himself Ajiu.

Ying Jiu looked into Ji Yuheng's eyes, and there was no disgust or defense as imagined.

"In the human world, the demons are the existence that everyone screams and is afraid of fear. The subordinates are afraid of hurting the master and being rejected by the master, so they have been hiding the identity of the demons. But the subordinates grew up in Qiwu Villa, and have never Anyone who has ever harmed the human world."

"So the reason why your injury was eroded by the elixir is because you are a demon? You are obviously a tenth-level cultivation talent but you have a disabled spirit root. Is it also because you are a demon?"

Ji Yuheng's previous questions were solved one by one.

Knowing that her master had recalled her previous deception, Yingjiu took the initiative to tell the whole story, "Master, this subordinate has lied to you three times."

It is a taboo for the shadow guard to lie to his master, so he bent his left leg and knee, trying to put on a pose of apologizing.

Seeing that Ying Jiu was about to kneel again, Ji Yuheng simply pulled him into his arms, but he was not sure of his strength, so he was pushed back a few steps by Ying Jiu.

"Master..." Knowing that the master was exhausted, Yingjiu struggled slightly to get out of Ji Yuheng's arms.

But Ji Yuheng thought that he was struggling and had to kneel down, so he didn't have the energy to say more, so he tilted his head and blocked Ying Jiu's mouth.

"Well!"

Ying Jiu's movements stopped suddenly, he opened his eyes wide, looking in shock at the infinitely enlarged face of his master in front of him.

The master already knew that he was a demon, but he still accepted him without any grievances, and even made such an intimate move.

"Now you know I won't blame you."

Ji Yuheng moved his mouth away, just watched Ying Jiu's lips move up and down, and kissed her without thinking. The thin lips were cool and soft, just like the feeling Ying Jiu gave him.

"I know that you lied to me three times. At that time, I thought you had some unspeakable secret, so I didn't go into it. I didn't expect that this unspeakable secret was because you were a demon."

Ji Yuheng pulled Ying Jiu against the wall, and every time Ying Jiu lied or concealed something from him, her eyes would stare at herself nervously, as if to see if she had noticed.

Usually, he would talk about the so-called "Shadow Guards should not look directly at their master", but Ji Yuheng would be impressed by those black eyes staring at him occasionally.

The first time I asked Yingjiu if he had seen the Mozu, he replied no.

The second time was when Yingjiu's back was corroded by Zhuyu Shengji Ointment. He said it was because of conflicting exercises.

The third time was when the spirit root was found to be invalid. Yingjiu explained that the attributes of the spiritual power she cultivated could not be detected by pointing the spirit stone.

In fact, apart from the first time, the other two times were not deceit in the strict sense. Yingjiu's explanation was not unreasonable, but she didn't tell Ji Yuheng the most fundamental reason.

Ji Yuheng actually sensed something was wrong at the time, but he convinced himself. It wasn't until Yingjiu said that he had lied three times that Ji Yuheng connected the previous series of events.

"Ajiu, don't lie to me again." Ji Yuheng held Ying Jiu's already flushed cheeks and said seriously.

"This subordinate obeys the order, and this subordinate will never commit another crime in the future." Yingjiu agreed.

"Also, don't use honorifics to me in the future, just address me as you and I, understand?"

Yingjiu's face was held by Ji Yuheng, he wanted to lower his head but couldn't do it, but in the end even his eyelids were red, he was embarrassed to look directly at Ji Yuheng, and agreed with a wandering gaze, "Master, I understand."

"That's about the same." Ji Yuheng put Ying Jiu's face down, and he realized that if he didn't let go, his shadow guard would turn into a boiled shrimp.

Ji Yuheng took a pill and rested for a while, his strength recovered by [-]-[-]%, and he turned his attention to the golden beads on the python's corpse.

"Ajiu, is this the legendary demon core? It seems that this giant python has already cultivated to the golden core stage."

"This golden seal python has been cultivated to the peak of the golden core, master, you can refine and absorb this demon core, which will be of great benefit to improving your strength."

Ying Jiu said that he obediently did not use honorifics, and changed "you" to "you".

After hearing this, Ji Yuheng got up and walked over. The golden seal python was dead, but as soon as he got close to the demon core, he could still feel the cold and bloodthirsty breath of the great demon.

Ji Yuheng concentrated a ray of chaotic spiritual power on his fingers, and reached out to take the demon pill.

After the silver-white chaotic spiritual power touched the demon core, it was like meeting prey. More chaotic spiritual power gushed out from Ji Yuheng's spiritual sea and wrapped it towards the demon core.

He wanted to absorb the energy of the demon pill on the spot!
