Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 340 This is no ordinary turtle; we must strike hard!
Duan Huaige was shocked. He glanced at the adorable look in Little Jiang's eyes and was immediately moved to tears.

I'm back! I feel like everything is back! My sweet and innocent childhood friend!

"Xiao Jiang, you're finally back to normal!" Duan Huaige hugged the girl tightly and said with emotion, "You were almost killed by Uncle Xie just now."

"What are you talking about? Didn't you just say you were going to invite the gods? Could it be... that you've already finished?" Xiao Jiang asked, looking completely bewildered. "This time it seems a little different from before. I didn't feel anything at all before it was over."

"And...where did this skirt come from? It's so long...won't it get dirty dragging on the ground? My mom will kill me if she sees it!"

Xiao Jiang frowned and began criticizing her future self's aesthetic sense. Duan Huaige listened to the girl's complaints and thought to himself that the current Xiao Jiang was better; at least she wouldn't threaten to die together with him at the drop of a hat...

"Kid, are you sure she's safe now?" Xie Changming asked from a distance, still maintaining his vigilance. After all, the most important thing for them on this mission was the safety of the bronze chariot. If this demoness was feigning indifference and then suddenly attacked, he wouldn't be able to explain it to his superiors.

Duan Huaige was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and seemed to realize what was going on. He subtly pushed Xiao Jiang away a bit and asked suspiciously, "Jiang Xiyu... are you the eldest Jiang or the youngest Jiang now?"

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is... is the god we just invoked still attached to you?"

"Really?" Jiang Xiyu said with a blank look, "I feel perfectly normal."

Duan Huaige pondered for a moment, then waved to the two princes, Yan and Qin, in the distance.

Qin Yan and Qin Shuangjiang seemed still resentful about the red-skirted witch Jiang Xiyu's immediate attack upon her arrival, and remained wary of her. Qin Shuangjiang, in particular, had a furrowed brow, seemingly pondering the reason for her arrival.

"Brother Huaige, be careful, don't get slapped to death by Xiao Jiang..." Qiuqiu called from not far away, "Come over here quickly."

Duan Huaige did not answer, but flew to Yan Qiuxi and Qin Shuangjiang's side and said seriously, "It is still uncertain whether Xiao Jiang is really safe now... so I need you to cooperate with me to conduct an experiment to test her."

"What kind of experiment?" Yan Qiuxi asked curiously, "Are we going to tie her up and ask her questions?"

"No need," Dr. Duan said confidently. "Don't worry, my experiment is extremely precise. Come here and stand still."

As he spoke, Duan Huaige stood between Qin Shuangjiang and Yan Qiuxi, embracing them on either side, and then turned to look at Xiao Jiang.

Little Jiang the Great Demon King: ? Duan Huaige, what are you up to?
At this moment, Yan Qiuxi, who possessed an extraordinary bond, suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I understand! Duan Huaige, you want to use that red-skirted female demon's jealousy and possessiveness, which are beyond A Jiang's level, to test whether she is still secretly hiding in Xiao Jiang's body, right!"

Qin Shuangjiang: ?

What do you mean by jealousy and possessiveness beyond my control? Yan Qiuxi, it seems your legs recovered too quickly, and you haven't deeply remembered the pain I caused you.

Upon hearing this, Duan Huaige sighed with emotion. Indeed, Qiuqiu understood him best. He nodded, about to say that perhaps Xiao Jiang's shell was too thick, and that simply holding Qin Yan's waist wasn't enough to elicit a strong reaction, when he heard Miss Yan Wang excitedly say:
"In that case, let's continue the experiment! In my opinion, Xiao Jiang's dark personality is deeply hidden. This is no ordinary turtle; we must strike hard!"

As she spoke, she turned around and cupped Duan Huaige's face in her hands, kissing him deeply in front of everyone. While kissing him, she gave Xiao Jiang a provocative look, like the one given to a woman with dyed yellow hair…

Jiang Xiyu: ? ? ?

Yan Qiuxi! What are you doing! Aren't we good allies?
Duan Huaige thought to himself, "What courage this heroine has! You're not afraid of the fierce witch Xiao Jiang after she turned evil... If she really is still hidden inside your body, wouldn't you be tormented in the Emperor's Banner for three days and three nights by Xiao Jiang?"
However, instead of Xiao Jiang's attack, Qin Shuangjiang's sword light arrived first. The enraged King Qin separated the two with a single sword strike, and the Longing for Autumn Water Sword was almost left as a blur by her swing.

Are you trying to pull a stunt in front of me? Or are you trying to assert your dominance in front of all these people? Yan Qiuxi, I'll beat you half to death today, or I'm not a Qin!
"Hey... Ah Jiang, what are you doing? Duan Huaige and I are doing an experiment! This is related to whether our good friend Jiang Xiyu can return safely... Don't go too far!"

Xiao Jiang also flew over quickly, angrily wiping Duan Huaige's mouth as she said, "Yan Qiuxi, what are you doing! Who gave you permission to be so bold!"

Hearing Xiao Jiang's familiar turtle-like voice, Duan Huaige breathed a sigh of relief and gave Xie Laodeng and the others an OK sign.

It's confirmed, it's indeed Xiao Jiang logging in right now...

Thinking about it that way, it seems to make sense... The Red-Skirt Witch was able to successfully descend from the future by relying on the causal knot and connecting with Taiqing. After Taiqing chose to escape by self-destructing the twelve secondary banners of the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Soul Banner, the Demon Lord Xiao Jiang also lost the causal connection left in this place.

Everything seemed to have settled down, but looking down, the entire Longhu Mountain was devastated, clearly affected by the recent battle, with considerable casualties. The other sects on Longhu Mountain had also participated in the battle of the demoness's attack on the mountain, fighting against the living souls in the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Soul Banner.

The demonic souls released by Taiqing alone were already troublesome enough, not to mention the later battle between the witch Xiao Jiang and Taiqing's soul banner, which directly caused some cultivators with insufficient spiritual strength to vomit blood and be injured on the spot. The battle situation was extremely tragic.

Zhang Mingyi from Longhu Mountain rushed to catch the little girl Zhang Zhiyao, while the old Celestial Master, despite his injuries, immediately went to the protective array of Longhu Mountain to resolve the trouble left behind by Taiqing. Duan Huaige also went over to check on the situation and found that the black-hearted little Celestial Master was unconscious, seemingly due to excessive consumption of his soul power.

Come to think of it... When Taiqing possessed her before, Zhang Zhiyao managed to briefly regain consciousness through her willpower and even relayed a message to Duan Huaige, urging the Old Celestial Master to kill her... With such amazing talent, it's no wonder she can become the only female Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain in the future.

However... if I were to invoke the gods and rewrite the fate of the massacre at Longhu Mountain, wouldn't that also rewrite Zhang Zhiyao's future position as a Celestial Master?
Duan Huaige suddenly remembered what the corrupted Xiao Jiang had said: Taiqing used to be a chess player, but now she's just a pawn? Could it be that there are other players playing this game?
So from the moment he acquired the system, did he become a pawn, or did he have the opportunity to sit on the chessboard and play against others?
