Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

"Who could it be so late? Could it be that bearded man?" Ning Caichen wondered to himself.

Seeing that there was no movement inside for a while, Nie Xiaoqian asked softly, "Is anyone home?"

Upon hearing that captivating voice, Ning Caichen felt as if his bones had lightened by two ounces.

Only after silently reciting the Analects in his heart did Ning Caichen calm himself down.

Reaching the door, Ning Caichen opened it and looked at Nie Xiaoqian standing there, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.

Ning Caichen had seen many beautiful women, but almost none could compare to the girl before him.

Looking at Nie Xiaoqian, Ning Caichen said politely, "Miss, may I ask what brings you here?"

Nie Xiaoqian smiled slightly, instantly revealing a myriad of charms that made Ning Caichen momentarily lose his composure: "Young master, my name is Nie Xiaoqian, and I live in Nie Family Village nearby. I'm a little tired from walking home today. Would you mind inviting me into your house to rest for a while?"

Ning Caichen had just snapped out of his daze and hadn't even had a chance to speak when Nie Xiaoqian squeezed into the room.

Ning Caichen turned around to speak to Nie Xiaoqian, but Nie Xiaoqian hugged him tightly.

Nie Xiaoqian also closed the door.

“Young master, it is fate that we met. Why don’t we…” Nie Xiaoqian said as she began to touch him inappropriately.

Ning Caichen had never seen anything like this before, and he quickly pushed Nie Xiaoqian away from his arms: "Miss, please have some self-respect! I am not a casual person!"

"Am I not beautiful enough?" Nie Xiaoqian asked Ning Caichen pitifully.

Ning Caichen felt a surge of warmth in his heart, but he still firmly waved his hand: "Miss, you are very beautiful! But you are demeaning yourself too much!"

Upon hearing Ning Caichen's words, Nie Xiaoqian was taken aback.

This is the first time I've encountered such a "foolish" scholar!

However, a thought then welled up in Nie Xiaoqian's mind: perhaps this foolish scholar could help her escape from the clutches of the Tree Demon Granny!

So Nie Xiaoqian, with tears streaming down her face, revealed to Ning Caichen that she was a wandering ghost and also explained her tragic past.

After listening to Nie Xiaoqian's story, Ning Caichen was naturally filled with a sense of justice and said that he would definitely help her get the urn back from the tree demon!

Seeing how easily Ning Caichen had taken the bait, a hint of guilt flashed in Nie Xiaoqian's eyes.

However, Nie Xiaoqian quickly dispelled this trace of guilt!

In order to escape the clutches of the Tree Demon Granny and be reincarnated as soon as possible, Nie Xiaoqian no longer cared about anything else.

Yan Chixia, who had been secretly watching Ning Caichen, thought to himself after watching Nie Xiaoqian's performance, "Indeed, not a single word of her nonsense can be believed!"

With Yan Chixia's experience, he could immediately tell that Nie Xiaoqian was using Ning Caichen to help him steal the urn of ashes.

No matter what, she was the Tree Demon Granny's most capable female ghost, so how could Nie Xiaoqian be someone who was only interested in love?

Moreover, Nie Xiaoqian also had her own ulterior motives.

After all, Ning Caichen and he both lived in Lanruo Temple, so he naturally couldn't just stand by and watch such a foolish scholar suffer a terrible fate.

So when Ning Caichen encounters danger while stealing the urn of ashes, I will most likely lend a helping hand!

"You audacious female ghost, you've really got a clever plan!" Just as Nie Xiaoqian was about to leave, Yan Chixia suddenly pushed open the door and entered, looking at Nie Xiaoqian with a smile.

Nie Xiaoqian was startled when she saw Yan Chixia suddenly barge in.

He then tried to escape through the window, but Yan Chixia stopped him.

"Master Yan, have mercy! This girl may be a ghost, but she's also a pitiful person!" Ning Caichen hurriedly stopped Yan Chixia as he blocked Nie Xiaoqian.

Yan Chixia said to Ning Caichen with some helplessness, "Foolish scholar, you actually believe nonsense! She just wants to play the victim and get you to help her steal the urn of ashes!"

"Do you know how dangerous that tree spirit is? Even if an ordinary person like you tried to steal an urn of ashes in broad daylight, you would still be doomed if it discovered you!"

Ning Caichen was naive, not stupid.

So after Yan Chixia said that, he realized that Nie Xiaoqian seemed to be using him.

However, Ning Caichen then said to Yan Chixia, "Hero Yan, although this girl wants to use me to help her steal the urn of ashes, she is truly pitiful as she is imprisoned by the tree demon! So why can't we help her escape the tree demon's clutches? This way, we can rid the world of one more wandering ghost that harms humanity!"

Yan Chixia glanced at Ning Caichen speechlessly. He never expected there to be such a naive person in the world!

"I really don't know how a fool like you has lived this long!" Yan Chixia said helplessly.

At that moment, Nie Xiaoqian tried to escape again.

He was struck to the ground by Yan Chixia's palm lightning.

After Nie Xiaoqian fell to the ground, the bell on her ankle made a crisp sound.

Upon hearing the sound of the bell, Nie Xiaoqian's expression changed.

With a look of struggle on her face, Nie Xiaoqian said to Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen, "Big Beard, Young Master Ning, you two run! Grandma is coming soon!"

Unfortunately, the Tree Demon Granny arrived even faster than Nie Xiaoqian had imagined, and even overheard Nie Xiaoqian's warning to Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen.

"Xiaoqian, how dare you betray me?" As the ground began to churn violently, the voice of the Tree Demon Granny echoed in the meditation room.

Yan Chixia looked at the thick tree roots that kept emerging from the ground and said coldly, "Tree demon, it seems you've forgotten your promise to me?"

"You stinking Taoist priest, are you trying to ruin my plans again today?" The Tree Demon Granny, clearly having fought Yan Chixia many times before, said with resentment.

Yan Chixia snorted coldly: "Hmph! Since you've broken our agreement, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"You stinking Taoist priest, who are you trying to scare! Come at me if you dare!"

Yan Chixia stopped wasting words with the tree demon and drew his sword, slashing out with it.

As a sword beam flew out, all of the tree demon's thick tree roots were severed.

"How is this possible? You stinky Taoist priest, how could you be so powerful?" the Tree Demon Granny exclaimed in disbelief.

After all, Yan Chixia was not as strong as him in their last encounter.

But now Yan Chixia's strength is far superior to his own!

In the eyes of the Tree Demon Granny, how much time has passed? Even if Yan Chixia eats spiritual medicine every day, his strength cannot improve so quickly!

Unfortunately, the Tree Demon Granny had no idea that such a bizarre thing as chat groups existed in the world.

Since joining the chat group, Yan Chixia's strength has increased from the fifth rank to the seventh rank, making him far beyond the reach of the Tree Demon Granny, who is currently below the sixth rank.

Nie Xiaoqian, who was standing to the side, was also stunned. She never expected that such a big beard would be so powerful.

No wonder Grandma warned them not to mess with that bearded man!

If I hadn't encountered Ning Caichen, this "foolish scholar," today, I probably would have been slain by Yan Chixia long ago!

Yan Chixia naturally wouldn't waste words with the tree demon, and unleashed another sword beam.

Faced with an even larger sword beam than before, the Tree Demon Granny decisively chose to run away.

However, while fleeing, the Tree Demon Granny didn't forget to throw out a harsh threat: "You stinking Taoist priest, you've got guts today! But I'll be back for revenge sooner or later!"

Chapter 268, Driving Away the Black Mountain, Slaying the Tree Demon! (Please Subscribe!)

Hearing the Tree Demon Granny's harsh words, Yan Chixia sneered, "Come back for revenge? I don't think you'll have the chance!"

"Xuanyuan Divine Sword, exorcise demons and subdue monsters!"

Countless flying sword phantoms appeared behind Yan Chixia, and then, with a flick of his finger, they chased after the direction in which the Tree Demon Granny had fled.

Faced with these flying sword phantoms, the Tree Demon Granny barely managed to survive, even after exerting tremendous effort.

But before it could even catch its breath, Yan Chixia had already flown towards where it had landed.

In its current state, it has absolutely no chance of survival against Yan Chixia.

So, in order to save her own life, the Tree Demon Granny crushed the jade pendant that the Black Mountain Demon had given her.

The Tree Demon Granny is a subordinate of the Black Mountain Demon, and she needs to make offerings to the Black Mountain Demon every six months.

Every time she made offerings, the Tree Demon Granny would crush the jade tablet, and the Black Mountain Demon would appear.

While taking away the offerings, they gave away a new jade tablet.

Even though the offerings are not yet ready, summoning the Black Mountain Demon will surely anger him.

But to save her own life, the Tree Demon Granny couldn't care less about anything else.

The moment the Tree Demon Granny crushed the jade tablet, the moon was instantly shrouded in dark clouds, and a fierce wind arose.

Then Yan Chixia saw a crack suddenly appear in the sky, from which a large amount of nether energy emanated.

Through the crack, one can vaguely see a huge black mountain getting closer and closer.

Upon seeing this scene, Yan Chixia knew that the Tree Demon Granny had summoned his backer—the Black Mountain Demon.

However, the Black Mountain Demon's strength had already reached the eighth level, surpassing Yan Chixia.

But Yan Chixia wasn't really afraid of him.

Because the true form of the Black Mountain Demon resides in the Netherworld, it cannot appear in the human world.

As long as he doesn't venture into the underworld like in the future video, the Black Mountain Demon is no match for him in the human world.

Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian were stunned by the crack that appeared in the sky.

Although Ning Caichen was somewhat frightened, he still subconsciously shielded Nie Xiaoqian behind him.

Looking at Ning Caichen blocking her way, Nie Xiaoqian's eyes were filled with complex emotions.

At the same time, the Black Mountain Demon's voice traveled through the crack to the ears of everyone present: "Tree Demon, did you awaken me because you have prepared offerings?"

"Lord Black Mountain, the offerings are still a little short!" The Tree Demon Granny looked expectantly at Black Mountain in the crack. "Please save me, and I will definitely make up for the missing offerings later!"

The Black Mountain Demon's voice rang out again: "Tree demon, you're utterly useless! A mere Taoist priest has beaten you up like this?"

"It is my incompetence that I beg Lord Black Mountain for your help!" The Tree Demon Granny said humbly in the face of the Black Mountain Demon's disdain.

"I have no problem with making the offer, but this time the tribute must be doubled! And you also have to give me your subordinate, Nie Xiaoqian!"

The Tree Demon Granny had no room for negotiation regarding the Black Mountain Demon's opportunistic behavior: "No problem, everything will be done as the Black Mountain Master says!"

Seeing that the Tree Demon Granny had agreed to his request, the Black Mountain Demon immediately dispatched a large number of ghost soldiers.

These ghostly soldiers burst into the human world from the cracks, howling as they rushed towards Yan Chixia and his companions.

Faced with this situation, Nie Xiaoqian's eyes were filled with despair.

The Tree Demon Granny, acting all high and mighty, smugly shouted at Yan Chixia, "Yan Chixia, Lord Black Mountain is here! Let's see where you can run this time!"

"Run? You're the ones who should be running!" Yan Chixia drew the Xuanyuan Sword from his back and pointed it at Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen. "The sword transforms into countless forms, boundless and immaculate!"

Then they saw the Xuanyuan Sword in Yan Chixia's hand transform into countless light swords, forming a circle around Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, protecting the two of them.

Then, turning to look at the charging ghost soldiers, Yan Chixia shouted, "Xuanyuan Divine Sword, exorcise demons and subdue monsters!"

Countless flying swords surged towards the ghost soldiers like ocean waves, obliterating them completely.

Even if some managed to slip through the net and try to rush towards Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, they were instantly eliminated by the lightsabers protecting them.

Seeing that the ghost soldiers under the Black Mountain Demon's command had no effect on Yan Chixia, the Tree Demon Granny had a bad feeling: Could it be that even the Black Mountain Demon is no match for this stinky Taoist?

Seeing that all his ghost soldiers had been annihilated, the Black Mountain Demon was clearly furious: "You stinking Taoist priest, you're asking for death!"

As the Black Mountain Demon finished speaking, a giant rocky hand emerged from the Black Mountain in the Netherworld, bursting through the cracks and slamming down towards Yan Chixia.

"Righteous spirit of heaven, swords return in an instant!" Facing the Black Mountain Demon's palm strike, Yan Chixia pointed to the countless flying swords hovering above his head.

Countless flying swords merged into a giant sword, which slashed directly at the Black Mountain Demon's palm.

boom!

With a deafening roar, the Black Mountain Demon's outstretched hand, which had reached into the human world, was severed by the giant sword and shattered into countless fragments.

"Ah! You stinking Taoist priest, you've really angered me!" As his hand was severed, the Black Mountain Demon from the Netherworld roared loudly.

Unfortunately, at this time the cracks in the sky began to slowly heal.

Clearly, the jade pendant that the Tree Demon Granny crushed had reached the end of its effective period.

Faced with the slowly healing crack, the Black Mountain Demon dared not forcibly bring his true form through, and could only rant from the underworld: "You stinking Taoists, you're lucky this time!"

As the tree spirit gritted her teeth, she gritted her teeth and tried to crawl into the crack.

The Tree Demon Granny knew very well that entering the Netherworld at this time meant completely entrusting her life to the Black Mountain Demon.
