Junior Sister is skilled in subduing demons.

Chapter 31 The first confrontation
As night falls, Jingdezhen's nightscape is picturesque, captivating visitors with its tranquility and beauty. Along the town's river, lights are reflected on the water's surface, resembling a winding, meandering Milky Way.

The chandeliers, stone bridges, and lanterns under the eaves on both sides of the river adorn Jingdezhen like a dream.

Hengfeng Porcelain Shop

Inside a brightly lit courtyard, Liu Yulin was engrossed in writing "On Porcelain," while the candle beside him burned halfway down. A gentle breeze outside caused a bonsai tree by the window to sway precariously.

"On Porcelain" is a book written by Liu Yulin over fifteen years about the production methods of Jingdezhen porcelain. It details the production methods of more than two hundred types of porcelain in Jingdezhen, as well as various legends and promotional methods of Jingdezhen porcelain.

More importantly, "On Porcelain" provides guidance for the future development of Jingdezhen porcelain.

It can be said that "On Porcelain" is the culmination of Liu Yulin's life's work.

crunch...

As the door opened, Ding Tianfeng walked in, wearing thick clothes, and shivered as he turned to close the door.

"My wife, it's windy and cold outside tonight."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yulin put down his brush and stepped forward to help Ding Tianfeng take off his thick cloak: "Have you seen the ancient kiln? The forty apprentices recruited today have already moved in, and the ancient kiln must be started as soon as possible."

Seeing Liu Yulin still writing "On Porcelain" late into the night, Ding Tianfeng said with some concern, "Don't worry, I've read it. I guarantee the fire will be lit on time and won't delay your training. By the way, why are you recruiting apprentices so quickly this year?"

Ding Tianfeng was curious. In previous years, it would take at least three days to recruit forty apprentices, but this year it only took one day.

“Our Jingdezhen porcelain is already renowned in the surrounding areas, and we have many apprentices from outside, and they all seem to have good talent. In particular, there is a girl named Shen Anzhi today who is very talented.” Liu Yulin said, his mind still replaying Shen Anzhi’s answer when asked why she came to learn porcelain making: “To inherit the craftsmanship of Jingdezhen.”

"Shen Anzhi?" Ding Tianfeng repeated the name with a furrowed brow.

“Yes!” Liu Yulin said, recalling her conversation with Anzhi at the door: “Her purpose is different from the others. We need people like her to promote Jingdezhen porcelain.”

Seeing that Liu Yulin couldn't stop talking about work, Ding Tianfeng said with some annoyance, "Yulin, you should also take care of your health. Look at you, you've gone bad and look haggard."

Seeing her husband's concern for her, Liu Yulin was also very moved. She handed Ding Tianfeng a cup of hot tea and said, "I have to finish writing 'On Porcelain' as soon as possible so that Jingdezhen porcelain can reach all parts of the country and that every household can use Jingdezhen porcelain."

Ding Tianfeng took a sip of hot tea and looked at his wife's haggard face, feeling even more heartache.

Liu Yulin seemed to sense Ding Tianfeng's worry, so he reassured him, "Don't worry, I'm in great shape."

Ding Tianfeng walked to the desk, picked up Liu Yulin's "On Porcelain" and started reading. Every word and sentence in it was written by Liu Yulin himself over the years...

"Tianfeng, I am determined to make Jingdezhen porcelain reach every corner of the country and enter every household." After saying this, Liu Yulin began to look forward to that day, which was her lifelong wish.

Ding Tianfeng put down his book "On Porcelain" and pulled Liu Yulin into his arms, saying, "That day will come."

……

Time passes slowly.

Soon, midnight arrived.

Ding Tianfeng, who had been busy at the kiln site all day, was the first to break down. He kept yawning and prepared to go to sleep.

"Yulin, don't be so busy, take a rest," Ding Tianfeng advised.

Seeing that Ding Tianfeng was also extremely sleepy, Liu Yulin closed "On Porcelain" and prepared to rest in order to comfort him.

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew in and opened the window.

Liu Yulin sensed the emergence of a circulating spiritual energy.

Oh no! A demon hunter. Regardless of whether someone is a demon hunter or not, as long as they don't circulate their spiritual power, Liu Yulin can't sense their presence. Only when the other party circulates their spiritual power, even just a little bit, can she sense it.

Liu Yulin was puzzled. How did a demon hunter infiltrate Hengfeng Porcelain Shop?
"Tianfeng, you should rest first, come here."

Liu Yulin coaxed her husband Ding Tianfeng to bed, and just as Ding Tianfeng yawned, Liu Yulin exhaled a light puff of smoke.

Immediately, Ding Tianfeng fell asleep and began to snore.

With a sense of unease, Liu Yulin went to the window. For the past fifteen years, he had been living a secluded life in Jingdezhen, busy with his career, and had never interfered with the demon hunters. How could he have been targeted by the demon hunters today?
Moreover, as the circulating spiritual energy grew stronger, Liu Yulin became increasingly uneasy.

She reached out and closed the window, then slowly walked to Ding Tianfeng's window.

Looking at her husband sleeping soundly, Liu Yulin's unease turned into fear.

Being targeted by demon hunters is not a good thing; it threatens one's career and family.

Liu Yulin was originally a sixth-level blue-and-white porcelain demon who had cultivated for three hundred years. He was capable of all kinds of transformations and was dedicated to studying ceramic art. He wanted to promote Jingdezhen porcelain, so he had been lurking in Hengfeng Porcelain Shop.

As the impact of this circulating spiritual energy on Liu Yulin intensified, her fear grew stronger.

As the window was blown open by the wind once again, Liu Yulin turned around, opened the door, and went out.

Before leaving, he made sure to lock the door from the outside.

At this time,

Kui Ran was sneaking around in the porcelain warehouse of Hengfeng Porcelain Shop when he noticed a powerful demonic aura.

Compared to her daytime attire, Kui Ran's evening outfit perfectly reveals her characteristics as a demon hunter.

The sword behind him was wrapped tightly in cloth, and the gourd at his waist seemed to be full of wine.

More importantly, the celestial pendant worn at the waist flashed brightly from time to time.

It was this light, combined with Kui Ran's powerful spiritual energy, that led him to this place.

"Hehe, now you can't escape, can you?" Kui Ran said to herself.

The wind outside is getting stronger.

Hengfeng Porcelain Store's warehouse is very large, with well-organized shelves filled with various porcelain pieces ready for sale, estimated to be over a thousand pieces.

suddenly,

A cat darted out from the shelf, startling Kui Ran.

whoosh...

A wisp of red mist drifted past behind Kui Ran, making him shiver involuntarily.

Kui Ran slowly turned around, but there was nothing behind him. However, he already sensed the approaching danger.

The murderous aura was so intense that it made him feel suffocated, making the already dark warehouse even darker.

This porcelain demon is probably not only at the sixth rank, but its level is only the sixth rank, yet its abilities are those of a seventh-rank demon.

Kui Ran slowed her pace...
