The sickly girl is killing her way through the weird world

It feels a bit too little.

I wonder how this monster's lifespan is calculated. Is it based on its combat power? Then this rat demon that was covered in flames could probably take on several of the rat demons we encountered in the dilapidated temple, right?

But is the difference in lifespan between the two demons really that small?

And that rat demon that I just casually cleaved in two only had thirty years of lifespan for a demon, so the two combined have less than a hundred years of lifespan for a demon.

Looking at my own stats, all I can do is upgrade [Cloud Willow].

After thinking about it, I decided to invest twenty years' worth.

There wasn't a sound.

It should be possible to continue improving, but the exact lifespan required is unclear.

Perhaps, she could learn some other martial arts and integrate them together?

I'm thinking of going back to study these things later.

Bai Qian wanted to go straight back.

My gaze inadvertently fell upon a figure sprawled against a dilapidated wall.

...

Men are making a great effort to minimize their presence.

He had to reduce the number of rats. He had personally witnessed that man kill two rat demons with a wooden stick in Pengzhai. Here, he easily killed the two rat demons who could run rampant in Baifeng City.

First, let's talk about how he used the iron rod to achieve the effect of an axe. Just from the blow he just gave himself, he is still completely limp and can't muster any strength.

What you fear will come to pass.

The man walked up to him.

"The Lai family?" He heard a cold voice.

He nodded hurriedly, wanting to speak, but his weak physical condition prevented him from uttering any words.

Bai Qian gazed at him with a quiet, melancholy expression.

"Go back there after daytime and tell them."

"I will go to their homes later and ask them to find a suitable reason to persuade me."

"Or else."

"Kill them all."

Volume 1: Chapter 19, Practicing Martial Arts and Slaying Demons

Bai Yao got home very late.

The moon has been hanging in the sky for quite some time.

I was still a little dazed when I got home.

After all, what I just learned was quite disorienting.

Most of Liang Du's clan members have died, and now the entire clan is leaderless.

Bai Yao had considered this matter before, but when it was actually presented to her, it still left her slightly stunned.

Or rather, I should say I'm sad.

All that is presented to me are words.

But people are complex; seeing these words will remind them of the corresponding people.

But... no matter what I think now, they're all gone.

He was killed by the demons of Liangdu.

Doesn't this prove that what I did before was right?

Escaping Liangdu was the right thing to do. It was a way to escape from that demon-infested cave and find a peaceful place in the countryside to live a quiet life.

The affairs of Liangdu, the affairs of Daliang, and the affairs of the family are all unrelated to me.

It's right to be a coward.

You can use this excuse to comfort yourself, and you can use this excuse to escape all of these things.

I am already very weak, and I don't understand martial arts. As for other aspects... they are of little use to me.

Liang Du's situation cannot be salvaged simply by learning something new.

After the Liang Kingdom spent so much money to establish the Demon Slaying Bureau, only to have most of its troops slaughtered by demons within days.

It's only a matter of time before the entire country descends into a demonic frenzy.

The best course of action is to do what I did: find a place to hide, or simply go to another country.

They were stubborn, unable to think things through, like stones, determined to fight those demons to the death.

So he died.

At this point, you should be glad you made that choice.

But Bai Yao felt very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.

Why is this happening? Why should this happen?

As Bai Yao walked to the courtyard gate, she still felt as if a huge stone was lodged in her heart, making it hard to breathe.

Carefully pushing open the door, I saw Bai Qian squatting beside the wooden basin in the moonlight.

Clothes are being washed in a wooden basin.

Upon seeing that petite figure, Bai Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

I feel much more at ease now.

I want to forget everything I just saw.

Why did this girl suddenly want to do laundry? Normally, she wouldn't be interested in such things at all.

This question arose in her mind, but her restless thoughts made her not want to care about these things anymore.

Bai Qian, who was washing clothes with her back to the door, noticed Bai Yao entering the courtyard and turned to look at her.

Looking into those clear, spring-like eyes, Bai Yao's thoughts calmed down a little.

Let's put aside the matter of Liangdu for now.

An idea did pop into my head, but I didn't know whether I should do it or not.

After all, doing it would be no different from sending someone to their death.

"I'm a little late, something came up and I was delayed." She looked at Bai Qian and said with a hint of apology.

"It's nothing." Bai Qian shook her head upon hearing this.

She had only just returned not long ago.

"The garlic should be peeled by now. I'll cook the dumplings in a bit," Bai Yao said softly, a gentle smile on her beautiful face.

"Not yet." Bai Qian blinked upon hearing this.

I had completely forgotten about that.

After Bai Yao left, she left with him.

I originally intended to ask the carpenter if there were any monsters in Bai Fengcheng, and then go look for them tomorrow.

And then it inexplicably turned out like this.

Of course, the result should be considered good?

"Then let's peel them together." Bai Yao didn't mean to blame Bai Qian, as if Bai Qian not peeling the garlic wasn't unexpected.

"I'll go cook the dumplings first."

What kind of filling is it?

"From chives."

What other fillings are made with chives?

“Only chives are available,” Bai Yao replied with a smile.

"Oh." Bai Qian gave up.

---

"Let me see if there are any caravans these days. Let's go to the county town." With slender, white fingers peeling off the outer skin of the garlic, Bai Yao looked at Bai Qian across from her, who was pinching the garlic with her fingernails, creating one wound after another.

The same clove of garlic, compared to the garlic peeled by Bai Yao, was about one-third smaller than the garlic peeled by Bai Qian.

"These past few days?" Bai Qian tilted her head upon hearing this.

"Hmm..." Bai Yao hesitated.

She didn't know how to bring it up with Bai Qian.

“The county town is definitely safer,” she said.

"Once we get there, someone will come to pick us up."

"Others?" Bai Qian frowned slightly.

She had no recollection of it.

At least, Bai Qian did not have such a thing in her memory.

Of course, this memory begins when Bai Yao adopts the original body.

For the past six months, Bai Yao has been alone, except for Bai Qian, a fact that Bai Qian is certain of.

Of course, it's also obvious that Bai Yao is no ordinary person.

At least in Bai Qian's memory, the two of them did not seem to have any worries about money. The amount of money Bai Yao carried was obviously not the amount that an ordinary farm girl would have, let alone her daily living habits.

The most prominent characteristic is literacy.

Bai Yao's eyes flickered, but she did not answer the question.

She didn't know what to do next, let alone explain it to Bai Qian.

"I'll go check on the dumplings. They should be almost done cooking. I just need to mince the garlic later."

Bai Qian looked at Bai Yao's figure, tilted her head slightly in confusion, not quite understanding what she was thinking.

Something's strange, what happened?

......

Just as Bai Qian had thought, the chive dumplings weren't very tasty.

Although she hadn't eaten much in her previous life, there were still some things she simply didn't like to eat.

Not to mention the pure chive filling, which contains neither eggs nor meat.

However, it's still okay if you dip it in garlic?

Bai Yao didn't say anything during the meal.

After finishing the meal, he didn't teach Bai Qian to read or write, since it was already very late.

That means I just went to sleep.

The room wasn't big; it only contained a bed and a blanket.

But for the two slender individuals, the space was still sufficient.

Normally, we each take half.

Bai Qian leaned against the pillow, her long black hair cascading lazily across the bed, staring at her control panel as she pondered how to allocate the remaining lifespan of the demons.

If we go to Changcheng Prefecture in the county town in the next few days as Bai Yao suggests, then I should hurry up and find all the monsters in Bai Fengcheng.

And then there's the Lai family.

It's not that we want to wipe them all out, but we need a satisfactory answer, or rather, protection money?

If things don't meet people's expectations, it's easy to handle; Bai Qian doesn't feel guilty.
