Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 81 Escape
what happened! ?
Yun Guanxia's fox head transformed into a beautiful woman's head again. Just as she was puzzled and frightened, the red-robed monster arrived.

Upon seeing Yun Guanxia, ​​he urgently urged, "Sister Xia! Let's escape together!"

Yun Guanxia snorted sarcastically and said, "Escape? Where can we escape to? Not to mention that the elders in the cave are all more powerful than the last, just look at the top of Chiyuan Cave, that's Lady Xinyue! Do you think we can escape from Lady Xinyue's grasp?"

The red-robed monster advised again: "How could Lady Xinyue possibly have any interest in little demons like you and me? Besides, we have a place to stay in the Ten Continents and Three Islands, inside and outside the Ruins of Return, or even in the Nine Netherworlds for a while. We shouldn't fight over a moment's anger!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Guanxia hesitated for a moment before patiently explaining, "The one shouting outside is Hu Shi Zijun. Although I am a fox spirit of the Yun clan, I know her. That fellow has a thousand years of cultivation and is one of the most talented and powerful demon spirits in the Hu clan. Even among all the fox spirits in the entire Chiyuan Cave, she is considered one of the most outstanding! She rarely leaves Chiyuan Cave, and when she does, it must be for important matters! With her watching over us, it would be difficult for you and me to escape!"

The red-robed monster remained silent for a long time before suggesting, "Why don't we ask the Mirror Immortal?"

Yun Guanxia lowered her eyes in thought. Although she did not speak, she slowly took out a palm-sized shard of mirror from her bosom.

The mirror fragments were crescent-shaped, entirely silvery-white, with a surface that seemed to ripple with regular patterns, like gentle waves on a lake, radiating a soft light.

The red-robed monster reached out as if to take the mirror, saying, "Let me ask you; I can't bear to see you get hurt."

Yun Guanxia held onto the mirror tightly, glared at the red-robed monster, and said, "Hmph, you're always good at making me happy. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Go ahead and ask me!"

The red-robed monster's expression stiffened, and he complained casually, "Fine, fine, you ask like that, yet you're still so wary of me!"

Yun Guanxia was getting annoyed: "Are you going to ask or not?"

"Ask me!"

The red-robed monster quickly tapped the mirror surface with his finger and asked respectfully, "May I ask, Mirror Immortal, is there a way to escape this time?"

After being asked three times, the mirror suddenly became brighter. Then, grayish-white smoke billowed up from the mirror, and soon a large black character appeared in the smoke: "Danger".

Yun Guanxia's face paled, but the red-robed monster comforted her, "Don't panic, wait a moment. It's just 'dangerous,' not a perilous situation!"

Sure enough, after the character "危" disappeared, another line of words appeared in the fog: "Death is life, life is death!"

Wait a moment, and the last line of text appeared: "Escape!"

Upon seeing the word "escape," Yun Guanxia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xia-mei, just as the mirror says, you shall enter my belly and stay for a while!"

As he spoke, the red-robed monster suddenly transformed into a giant red python, its enormous head hanging in front of Yun Guanxia's eyes, its tongue flashing intermittently, its entire body making the cave room feel cramped.

Yun Guanxia frowned: "I'm afraid we can't outrun Hu Zijun!"

"Not necessarily. You should disperse the clouds and I will go underground. She won't even see me, so how can she catch up?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Guanxia finally showed some interest: "What about my two nephews?"

"Come and stay inside me!" Yun Guanxia transformed into a fox, her size greatly reduced, and spoke in human language: "My dear nemesis, whether I live or die this time depends on you!"

"I will certainly live up to Xia-mei's expectations!"

With that, the red-robed monster swallowed the three foxes whole and sped off into the depths of the cave.

Outside the cave, Hu Zijun and Baili Shuang were discussing the matter of catching foxes in Chiyuan Cave.

It turned out that there were many fox cubs and their offspring in the Crimson Plains Cave, and some of them would inevitably stray into the wrong path without realizing their own mistakes. If they could be saved, they would be brought back to the cave, locked up, and tortured; if they could not be saved, they would be killed on the spot. Because the Star Lord of the Heart Moon valued this greatly, the elders of the Crimson Plains Cave who captured the wicked foxes were extremely ruthless. Few fox cubs dared to escape, and those that were discovered mostly begged for mercy or confessed their crimes, still having a sliver of hope for survival. If they dared to escape, they would surely die.

No sooner had they finished speaking than they noticed the rosy clouds in the distance dissipating. Hu Zijun's face darkened instantly, and she spat out, "This beast probably knows he has committed a terrible crime and is doomed to die, yet he dares to run away right in front of me!"

After speaking, she immediately rode a cloud and rushed into the Three Stone Cave.

Seeing that Baili Shuang didn't make a move, Zhao Qing asked, "Senior Sister, what should we do? Should we just wait here?"

Baili Shuang nodded slightly, her tone gentle, but her words were chilling: "Now that they've informed Chiyuan Cave, it's their own business to clean house. Don't worry, they can't hide forever. Those monsters will definitely not survive!"

Baili Shuang said this because Fang Xianyu had already marked all the monsters in the Three Stone Cave through the system while Bai Chenxue was combing the fox demon's tail when Wang Ergou and the others were captured. No matter where they escaped to, they could be easily found, so Fang Xianyu was not in a hurry.

Unlike Bai Chenxue and Jia Xiaoren, who had always thought it was just a game, Zhao Qing knew the truth. She had thought that she would be scared half to death if she really came into contact with the demons and monsters of this world, but now that she had actually encountered them, her anger far outweighed her fear.

Monsters, relying on their magical powers, treat humans like pigs. The law of the jungle is magnified countless times in this world. Even the seemingly reasonable Chiyuan Cave, in Hu Zijun's words just now, only mentioned that those monsters who committed heinous crimes were "caught and punished." The principle of paying for murder with one's life, which should be a matter of course, seems to be an unattainable fairness at this moment.

Zhao Qing couldn't help but ask, "But according to Chiyuan Cave, the evil foxes they captured won't die?"

Baili Shuang smiled slightly: "If they had discovered this on their own, the monsters in the Three Stone Cave might have survived, but this time we came to them, so they won't survive."

At this point, Baili Shuang suddenly sighed: "I just don't know whether the fox demon will be completely destroyed, or just have its physical body killed to settle things."

"If the physical body dies, can it come back to life?"

"Yes, there are many insidious methods such as possession of corpses and body snatching. More difficult methods include reshaping the physical body and reincarnation. After all, the Red Plains Cave has a deep foundation, so it's hard to guarantee that there aren't some exquisite methods for 'resurrection'. Although demon cultivators are selfish and short-sighted, their clans are extremely protective of their own."

"Isn't there any way to truly punish them as they deserve?"

"have,"

Baili Shuang's eyes were fixed on the illusory figure that Hu Zijun had released with her magic weapon in the distance, which blotted out the sun. This time it was an unknown bird with wings that almost covered the sun. After seeing the bird suddenly swoop down to the ground, she said, "Our Taiyin Sect... no, it will soon be the Taiyin Clan. As long as our Taiyin Clan has a strong enough backer, it will be fine."

"Taiyin Sect!?"
