Seeing that Li Mu didn't respond for a long time, Fan Ji asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
Li Mu hurriedly said: "Master Fanji has misunderstood. You are very kind to the little demon. The little demon can give everything for Master Fanji, but..."
Fan Ji asked: "Just what?"
Li Mu explained: "It's just that not all snakes are venomous. The little demon happens to be the non-venomous kind, and it can't squeeze out the venom no matter what..."
"If I didn't tell you earlier..."
Fan Ji glanced at him and left disappointed.
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he reacted quickly. He was just pretending. Even if Fan Ji squeezed him dry, he wouldn't be able to squeeze out a drop of venom.
The life of an undercover agent is indeed full of dangers, and if you are not careful, there is a risk of exposure.
In the past night, Li Mu didn't sleep well. He was not worried about being exposed, but thinking about how he could tell Hu Jiu tactfully that he always liked women with big breasts and perky butts. No matter how beautiful a man is, he
It won't change my preferences.
To say it directly would seem offensive and a bit inexplicable, but to say it euphemistically, Hu Jiu would not understand.
How about asking him to go to a brothel in the city for health care?
Some female monsters in the city, because their cultivation talents are not high, do not mind selling their bodies in order to obtain cultivation resources. This is of their own free will, and it is legal in Qianhu Country. If Hu Jiu is invited to go to such a place, he should do it.
Do you understand what you mean?
No, the identity he plays here is still an innocent little white snake whose purpose is to get close to Fan Ji. Doing this kind of thing may lower his impression in Fan Ji's mind. It is completely a waste of time.
After thinking about it all night, Li Mu decided to remind him without showing any trace.
After Li Mu got up and just finished washing, a dull bell suddenly sounded outside.
This is the signal for Mei Zong to summon everyone.
Li Mu quickly walked out of the yard and came to the front yard.
There were already more than ten figures gathered in the courtyard, all with dull expressions. Li Mu didn't know what happened. He was about to ask Hu Jiu, but glanced around the crowd, but did not see Hu Jiu.
Several demons who followed Hu Jiu on the mission yesterday have returned, but Hu Jiu is missing.
Li Mu looked at Yi Yao, who went on the mission with Hu Jiu yesterday, and asked, "Where's Brother Hu Jiu?"
The fox demon lowered his head and said sadly: "We fell into the trap of the evil cultivator. In order to cover our departure, Brother Fox Jiu stayed behind to break up the rear. Then, then..."
The fox demon didn't say any more, but someone had already recounted the whole story.
Since the last time they caught those five evil cultivators, Mei Zong has obtained a lot of information about the evil cultivators by searching their souls.
Using this information, they destroyed several evil cultivator dens and rescued dozens of fellow demons in more than half a month, but they were also noticed by the evil cultivator organization.
This time, the evil cultivator organization deliberately released false news to attract them, and then set up an ambush early. If the demons had not sensed the danger in advance, none of them would have come back this time.
Even so, it was Hu Jiu who paid the price with his life to create a chance for them to escape.
Fan Ji walked out of the backyard and said in a deep voice: "Follow me!"
A fox demon stood up and said to Fan Ji: "Master Fan Ji, this matter needs to be considered in the long term. Each of those five evil cultivators has the cultivation level of the fifth realm. They are compatriots from the same mother and father, and they have joined forces to form an array.
, it is even more powerful than the Sixth Realm, we will die if we go there..."
"Master Fan Ji, think twice, you can't let Master Hu Jiu sacrifice in vain."
"Sooner or later this revenge must be avenged, but not now..."
…
Listening to everyone's dissuasion, Fan Ji took a deep breath, and her figure turned into a stream of light and flew towards the highest mountain peak in Qianhu Kingdom.
Not long after, we reached the top of the mountain.
The handsome man shook his head at Fan Ji and said: "Father, I am in seclusion. I have to guard here and cannot leave. Besides, you don't know the rules of the Demon Kingdom. No matter what grudges the people below have, no matter how big the trouble is, the Sixth Realm
The above powerful people cannot take action. Once we break this rule, others can also break it. At that time, this place will become disordered again, and more people will fall in the fifth or even sixth realm..."
Fan Ji didn't force herself anymore, she just gritted her teeth and said, "Then I'll go by myself!"
The handsome man shook his head and said, "You can't go, you are no match for them."

Fan Ji said: "I want to avenge Hu Jiu."
After saying that, she left in the air.
However, as soon as she flew into the void, her body stopped in the air and she could no longer move forward.
Fan Ji said angrily: "Let me go!"
The handsome man shook his head and said, "I can't let you go. If you make any mistake, I can't explain it to my father."
He waved his hand, and Fan Ji flew into the cave. The handsome man arranged a formation and said, "You should calm down inside first. I will let you avenge Hu Jiu's revenge when the time is right."
"let me out!"
"Huanyun, you bastard, let me out!"
"Let me out, and I'll curse you to never get a wife!"
…
Fan Ji yelled and cursed loudly in the cave, but the handsome man just shook his head helplessly and flew away.
Master Hu Jiu died at the hands of the evil cultivator. This matter soon spread throughout Qianhu City. All the demon people in the city were filled with righteous indignation. Some of them were rescued by Hu Jiu from the evil cultivator.
However, the news that came later made them even more angry.
Those evil cultivators actually hung Master Hu Jiu's body on the mountain gate to expose it to the sun...
This is a naked insult!
For a time, the people in Qianhu Kingdom were furious and wanted to wipe out the Xie Xiu Mountain Gate, but the Mei Sect did not take any action.
Those evil cultivators are too strong. If the Great Elder doesn't come out, even if they go, they will die in vain.
In the Qianhu Kingdom, in the cave at the highest peak, Fan Ji's silver teeth were about to be chewed to pieces, "I must kill them!"
At the entrance of the cave, a fox demon told her about the situation in Thousand Fox Kingdom in the past two days. He remembered something again and said: "There is one more thing that I dare not speculate on. I don't know if I should tell Master Fan Ji."
.”
Fan Ji took a deep breath and said, "Say."
The fox demon said: "The snake demon we brought back from outside last time has disappeared for two days. He must have left Qianhu City. He didn't tell anyone about this. Could it be that he was greedy for life and afraid of death?
He ran away..."
Fan Ji said coldly: "You can leave if you want. One more Mei Zong will not be more than him, and one less will not be more than him. Next time we meet, we will be enemies."
The fox demon said angrily: "This demon doesn't know how to repay kindness at all. If it weren't for Master Fan Ji, he would still be just a little demon in disguise, and he might not be able to condense into a demon elixir in this life..."
Fan Ji shook her head and said: "There is no need to mention him anymore. Think of a way to bring Hu Jiu's body back."
There was a look of humiliation in the fox demon's eyes, but he still sighed and said: "This is obviously a bait. They insulted Hu Jiu's body like this just to lure us there. The trap must have been laid there long ago. Wait.
Let us deliver it to your door..."
…
The strong men in the clan were killed and their corpses were exposed and humiliated. These days, Qianhu's country was extremely depressed.
The people of Mei Sect have not shown their smiling faces for a long time.
Hu Jiu was killed, and there was a traitor in the sect. The snake demon escaped from the Thousand Fox Kingdom less than a month after joining the Mei Sect, which was a shame for the Mei Sect in recent years.
"Let me just say, that snake demon is very timid, who forced him to join the sect?"
"It's Hu Jiu..."
"Hu Jiu is confused. I know he is attracted by the beauty of the snake demon, but when recruiting people in the Mei Sect, you can't just look at beauty, but also look at character and character..."
"Some time ago, he pretended to be brave and not afraid of death, but now he shows his true colors, right?"
…
At the gate of Qianhu City, two powerful men from the Mei Sect guarding the city gate were still very angry when they talked about the snake demon.
At this moment, a figure slowly walked from outside the city gate.
It was a figure that was not tall, its clothes were in tatters and covered in blood, limping from a distance.
"who?"
"This is the Kingdom of Thousand Foxes, and those who come will be stopped."
…
Two powerful men from the Charm Sect flew forward, but the next moment, their expressions changed.
At the city gate, there was something else on the man's back.
He wrapped vines around his waist and tightly connected them to the things on his back.
The two people quickly saw clearly what was on his back. It was a corpse. When they caught a glimpse of the corpse's face, the two people exclaimed again.
"It's Hu Jiu!"
"Hu Jiu's corpse!"
The figure walked step by step, and when he reached the city gate, he slowly raised his head, revealing a handsome and delicate face under the blood stains.
He smiled at the two of them and said in a hoarse voice: "I brought Brother Hu Jiu's body back..."
After saying that, he fell down.
The two people hurriedly stepped forward to support him, their faces full of shock.
"It's him!"
"He didn't run away!"
"He actually brought back Hu Jiu's corpse..."
"How did he do that?"
The two of them hurried back to the city, carrying one person and one corpse. Not long after, a piece of news came from the Mei Sect, causing the entire Thousand Fox Kingdom to completely boil.
Master Hu Jiu's body was brought back, and the person who brought his body back turned out to be the little demon from the Mei Sect who had defected for half a month.
Soon everyone realized that he was not defecting.
Everyone in Qianhu Kingdom wanted to bring back Hu Jiu's body, but no one took action because they knew that this was a trap, a trap where whoever goes and who dies.
These days, they can only condemn.
But there was a person, no, there was a demon. He didn’t say anything and left Qianhu Country alone. When he came back again half a month later, he had brought back the body of Hu Jiu, Mei Zong and Qian Hu.
the dignity of the country.
Although they don't know what happened in the past half month, it is said that when the little demon returned to Qianhu City carrying Master Hu Jiu's body, he had nearly a hundred wounds, large and small, on his body, and his life was exhausted.
First line, if Master Fan Ji hadn't saved him with precious elixir, I'm afraid he would be dead now.
That little snake demon caused widespread discussion in the city.
"I want to apologize to him. I scolded him for defecting a few days ago."
"What a good man!"
"He is a true hero, a hero worthy of everyone's admiration!"
"That gentleman also took a bath in our bathhouse. I saw that he was handsome and pleasant, but I didn't expect him to be so bloody..."
…
In Fanji Mansion, countless figures stood in the courtyard, and many people's faces were still full of disbelief.
“Incredible!”
"Even the Great Elder may not be able to escape intact. How on earth did he, a little demon in the fourth realm, do it?"
"I have never seen such serious injuries. What on earth did he go through?"
"Even if he doesn't die, what is supporting him?"
…
Everyone couldn't understand why a little demon with low strength could accomplish such a great thing that even a strong person in the sixth realm could not easily accomplish. What happened in the middle?
In the room, Li Mu opened his eyes, looked at a figure standing in front of the bed, struggled to get up, and said: "I have seen Master Fan Ji..."
Fan Ji pressed his shoulders, pushed him back to the bed, and said, "You are seriously injured and need to rest. There is no need to salute."
After speaking, she looked at Li Mu's face and asked, "How did you do it?"
Li Mu's eyes showed sadness and said: "Brother Hu Jiu is the best person to me here. I can't watch his body after death and be insulted by others, so I used the hidden magical power of the snake clan to hide it there.
I lurked in front of the evil cultivator's mountain gate for half a month before finally waiting for the five powerful evil cultivators to leave..."
Fan Ji shook her head and said, "Even so, you can't get Hu Jiu's body..."
Li Mudao: "I know that there must be an ambush around Brother Hu Jiu's body. If I fight hard, I will die. I can only outwit them. So half an hour after the five evil cultivators left, I became one of them.
With the appearance of a person, did he deceive their men and let them put down the body of Brother Hu Jiu? Unfortunately, it was discovered in the end. I managed to kill him out. Fortunately, after the five strong men left, there was no third
Five realms, otherwise, I won’t be able to see Master Fan Ji..."
Fan Ji blurted out: "This is impossible. The art of transformation requires at least the sixth level of cultivation. Even I can't do it, and you can't have false talismans and elixirs..."
Li Mu looked at her and said gratefully: "I would also like to thank Master Fan Ji. It was you who allowed me to break through to the fourth realm. At the same time as I broke through in cultivation, I awakened an innate magical power..."
"Snakes don't have magical powers of transformation, unless..." Fan Ji looked at Li Mu with doubt on her face. She quickly thought of something and said suddenly: "Do you have the blood of the lizard clan?"
Li Mu nodded and said, "My grandmother is from the lizard tribe."
The lizard tribe is known as the "four-legged snake". The snake tribe and the lizard tribe often intermarry. Fan Ji finally no longer had doubts in her heart and said: "You shouldn't make your own decisions..."
Li Mu shook his head and said, "Even you are imprisoned. If I were to bring back Brother Hu Jiu's body, I would definitely not be allowed."
Fan Ji asked: "Are you even willing to risk your life for Hu Jiu's body?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "My father told me that when a demon is alive, he can do something or not do something. I can't let Brother Hu Jiu be humiliated after death because I am afraid of death. Otherwise, even if I am alive, I
I also feel guilty..."
"I didn't expect you, little snake, to be so attached to love and justice..."
A shadow floated in from outside, looked at Li Mu movedly, and said, "I really didn't love you in vain. You are actually willing to die to get my body back. Are you also attracted to me..."
Li Mu looked at the spirit that looked exactly like Hu Jiu, his expression gradually dulled.
Fan Ji explained: "Although Fox Jiu lost his body, his demonic soul finally escaped."
Hu Jiu sighed and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I didn't listen to Master Fan Ji before. If I also practiced Taoism and cultivated the soul, I could find a new saying and be reborn, and I wouldn't become like this ghost.
…”
He looked at Li Mu and asked, "Little snake, you won't stop loving me just because I turned into a ghost, will you?"
Li Mu lay on the bed, raised his hand with great effort, gave Hu Jiu a middle finger, and said, "I love you mom."
After saying that, he fainted again.
Just as Hu Jiu was about to step forward, Fan Ji waved her hand and said, "He almost died. Let him have a good rest. He will be of great use to me in the future. You are not allowed to have any ideas about him again."
Hu Jiu had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and finally sighed and said, "I know..."
After one person and one ghost left, the door closed automatically.
On the bed, Li Mu opened his eyes again.
He exhaled softly, with a smile on his face.
After spending many days together, even a dog will develop some feelings.
Regardless of race, these monsters are actually more worthy of close friendship than humans. He is very pleased that the spirit of Fox Nine is still there.
Although the reason for retrieving Hu Jiu's body this time was to gain Fan Ji's trust, more importantly, it was because of the friendship between the two.
This ending can be said to be a happy one for everyone.
Everything he said to Fan Ji was true.
Although Li Mu had the ability to break into the evil cultivator's gate and snatch Hu Jiu's body, after the robbery, he had no way to explain the process to Fan Ji and the Mei Sect's people.
So he can only use tricks.
It was true that he had been lurking near the evil cultivator's lair for half a month, and it was true that he had patiently waited for the leader of the evil cultivator to leave. He had also truly transformed into one of them and deceived their men.
But the flaw was deliberately exposed by Li Mu. If he easily carried Hu Jiu's body back, it would be too fake. It would be strange for Fan Ji not to doubt it.
On the contrary, if he narrowly escaped death and snatched back the bodies of his compatriots with his life hanging by a thread, those who doubted him would feel ashamed.
Li Mu didn't believe it. He had worked so hard. Wouldn't Fan Ji let him be her personal guard?
If he can't get to the top this time, Li Mu really won't be able to do this job.
The elixir that Fan Ji gave him must be of the highest quality. He rested quietly in the room for three days, and his injuries were almost fully recovered. Not even a scar could be seen on his body.
In the past three days, he had been cared for by cute little fox demons. These little fox demons who had just transformed looked at him with stars in their eyes.
On the afternoon of the third day, a little fox demon walked in, looked at Li Mu with admiration, and said softly: "Sir, Master Fan Ji, please come over."
Li Mu got out of bed for the first time in three days and came to Fan Ji's courtyard.
In the courtyard, Fan Ji looked at Li Mu and asked, "How is your cultivation?"
Li Mu cupped his fists and said, "It's almost done. Thank you Master Huan Ji for the pill."
Fan Ji nodded and said: "Although you carried back Hu Jiu's body and made great achievements, there are still many people in the sect who don't believe you can do it. Therefore, I need you to show your magical powers in front of me. As long as you
If you can prove that what you said is true, I will not let anyone dare to criticize you in the future."
Li Mu had long expected this scene, and he was not afraid. He covered his face with his sleeves. After a moment, when he removed his sleeves, he had transformed into Fox Jiu.
Fan Ji had a strange look on her face and said: "There is no one in a certain demon clan who can awaken this level of innate magical power. You are the first one I have ever seen."
In fact, the innate magical powers of the major demon clans are not so difficult to awaken at all, but they don't know the methods. If they know the methods, humans can also use demon magic to cast them, but it's just not as easy as the demon clans.
Li Mu changed back, looked at Fan Ji, and asked: "Master Fan Ji, is it okay?"
Fan Ji nodded and said, "You can go back."
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave when Fan Ji suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait..."
Li Mu turned around and asked, "Does Master Fan Ji have anything else to do?"
Fan Ji thought for a while, pointed to the statue covered with sword marks next to the rockery, and said, "Change him and show me."
Li Mu looked at the statue, swallowed, and whispered: "Master Fan Ji, I, I have never seen him, I'm afraid I won't be good..."
Fan Ji crossed her arms and said, "It doesn't matter, just change."
Li Mu tentatively asked, "Then, let me try?"
Fan Ji nodded and said, "Let's get started."
Li Mu once again covered his face with his sleeves, and after a moment, slowly removed his sleeves.
Fan Ji walked over step by step, looked at him for a long time, and finally stretched out her hand, patted his face gently, and pulled it again, with a meaningful smile on her face, and said: "Okay, very good..."
Li Mu's face was pale and full of fear, and he said in a trembling voice: "Huan, Master Huan Ji, please don't do this..."
Fan Ji looked at this familiar face, and certain pictures emerged in her mind. She couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, showing a smile that could charm all living beings, and said: "From now on, you will stay with me."
The meaning of this sentence is that Li Mu is already her personal guard, and a personal guard. Li Mu has taken a big step forward from his ultimate goal.
His face showed joy and he said: "Thank you, Master Huanji!"
Fan Ji thought for a while and then said: "I will change your name again, and I will call you that from now on."
Li Mu bowed and said, "My subordinates are entirely at the mercy of Master Huan Ji."
Fan Ji pinched his face again and said, "Remember, from now on, you will be called Li Mu..."
