The surroundings were filled with white mist, and only the lanterns hanging on the covered bridge could be vaguely seen.

Li Huaiyun squatted down slightly and got into a punching stance.

His sharp eyes quickly passed through the white mist. He couldn't see it, but he could feel that the evil spirit was quickly approaching him.

"Hiss!" The sharp claws struck at his back.

Li Huaiyun dodged sideways, but he was still a step slower. This fox demon was very fast.

The clothes and flesh on the back were torn open by the claws, and blood was slowly flowing out from the wounds.

Immediately afterwards, the fox demon hid in the white mist and attacked several times.

Fortunately, after suffering the loss, Li Huaiyun dodged in time. Apart from his clothes being torn apart, he was not seriously injured.

"That's it?" Li Huaiyun looked around and said in a provocative tone, "Is this your level? Not as powerful as the courtesan in bed!"

These words obviously angered the fox demon, "Stinky human, watch me for a moment, how I bite off your neck."

Li Huaiyun tilted his head and wiped his hand on his neck, "Here, hurry up and bite!"

"court death!"

At this time, Li Huaiyun had gathered a lot of energy in his fists, the muscles in his arms had swelled, and veins protruded from the skin.

He sensed that the monster was approaching quickly and punched the ground directly.

The fist force collided with the ground, creating a high-speed upward airflow. For a moment, all the smoke was blown upward.

The fox demon was in mid-air, opening its mouth full of sharp teeth, ready to bite Li Huaiyun's neck.

When it saw that the white fog dissipated, there was no hidden object, and its position was completely exposed, it immediately gave up the attack.

Li Huaiyun stood up slowly, "Now, you won't have anywhere to hide!"

The fox demon glared at him with that ferocious look, "I've killed several demon hunters with your level of cultivation, so there's no need to hide."

"Then why did you release all that white mist?"

The fox demon showed its sharp claws and pounced directly on Li Huaiyun.

"Do you really think I came here alone?" As soon as he finished speaking, a black monster that looked like a stone lion sprang out from the darkness outside the covered bridge.

The monster intercepted the ferocious bite of the fox demon, and the two monsters struggled together. However, although this monster looked ferocious, it was not very resistant to bites.

After being bitten by the fox demon a few times, it quickly turned into black water and sprinkled on the ground. However, the fox demon was also bitten a few times. It stared at Li Huaiyun with its hateful eyes, "Now it's your turn!"

Li Huaiyun shrugged, "Look at you, you're a monster who's not familiar with the world! You won't think of that thing, just this one!"

At this time, under the sweet-scented osmanthus trees, more than ten such monsters walked out, letting out slight roars.

The fox demon looked around and found that he was surrounded, and the expression on his face became obviously gloomy.

"If you surrender without mercy, the Demon Slayer Division might be able to let you go!"

"I won't believe your nonsense!" It lowered its head and slowly exhaled bursts of smoke from its mouth.

"This guy wants to escape! Catch him!" As soon as he finished speaking, the white mist quickly dispersed around him, and the fox demon also disappeared into the mist.

"It's this fog again, it's so annoying!" Li Huaiyun stood there, waving his arms vigorously, trying to disperse the surrounding fog.

At this moment, a breeze blew, taking away the white mist, and a figure appeared on the covered bridge.

When Li Huaiyun saw the man, he immediately stepped forward, cupped his fists and saluted, "My subordinates have seen Master Liu, and the fox demon has run away! Can he be tracked down?"

"Don't worry, it's stained with ink and can't escape my grasp."

The monster that looked like a stone lion just now was the method used by Liu Pingzhong of the Iron Painting Pavilion. He painted the object with ink and used his own spiritual power to control the monster and walk out of the painting.

This ability is particularly useful in investigation and investigation, especially tracking.

Li Huaiyun nodded, "That's good. As long as we track where it hides, we might be able to find other clues."

Lieutenant Liu Ping put away the brush in his hand and asked with a little curiosity, "I can't believe that you would actually ask someone to come to me! Why don't you go to the helmsman of your sword pavilion?"

Li Huaiyun explained, "That's because Captain Yuan is not good at this. It's easy for him to kill monsters, but when it comes to investigating and tracking, Captain Liu is the best at it."

"I didn't expect that you only met me once and you already know my abilities. As Sikyong said, you are really talented and intelligent and a rare talent."

Ah! It turns out that Sikyong even praised me behind my back! Li Huaiyun felt happy for a moment, clasped his fists and thanked me, "The helmsman was so complimentary!"

Liu Pingzhong still wants to win over such a talent. "With your intelligence, you can definitely come to Tiehua Pavilion or Qianji Pavilion. Why do you want to stay in Jiange Pavilion, where only warriors stay?"

"If you are practicing martial arts outside your subordinates, you will naturally go to the Sword Pavilion. Besides, practicing spiritual energy internally requires more resources and luck!"

"It's not a bad idea for you to practice again. Iron Painting Pavilion can take full responsibility for it. Enter Iron Painting Pavilion and use your talent to learn this spirit-controlling art. By then, you will definitely be able to achieve great success!"

"Although martial arts is strong, you may have the resources and talent, otherwise it is very likely that you will work hard all your life and stand still."

Such a good offer! He really didn't expect it.

Li Huaiyun was silent for a long time. He just wanted to ask Master Liu for help. He never thought that he would be so sincere in poaching himself to the Iron Painting Pavilion.

He cupped his fists and saluted, "What the helmsman said is absolutely true, but my subordinates have their own ideas. If there is an opportunity in the future, they will definitely consider Iron Painting Pavilion."

When Liu Pingzhong heard this, he couldn't say anything more, "Of course it's best!"

He looked towards the direction where the fox demon was escaping, "Leave it to me to track down the fox demon. Let's see you in the Demon Slayer Division tomorrow."

Li Huaiyun bowed and thanked, "Then I'd like to thank Master Liu."

In the blink of an eye, Liu Pingzhong had disappeared into Bailu Tower.

Li Huaiyun stood on the covered bridge, thinking in his mind, after catching the fox demon, the next step in this case is to interrogate the official. Everyone who colluded with him has been caught, so he doesn't believe that the official still doesn't tell the truth.

He raised his head and looked at the top floor of Bailu Tower. He originally wanted to go back and continue to enjoy the personal service of the two oirans. Through this method, the essence in his body could continue to gather, and then he would slowly adjust his breath and release the essence.

Qi is everywhere in the three bodies.

Especially by using the special way of breathing in and out, you can further control the leaked energy.

As long as you don't break your body and follow this method, you can continuously gather and integrate your own essence.

However, at the moment, he still thinks it is better to go back. After all, with two plump beauties by his side, he is a grown man and he may not be able to hold himself back at any time.

At the same time, he couldn't let his aunt worry too much. Besides, after this experience, he decided to go to Fengxin Tower tomorrow, have a tea party, and let someone know that he could see the two oirans at any time.

The days are long! The days are long! Unable to rush, Li Huaiyun turned around and left Bailu Tower.

When he returned to Li's house, the door was closed. He couldn't bear to knock on the door at such a late hour and disturb others' rest, so he directly climbed over the wall to get in.

As soon as he walked out of the yard, a figure suddenly appeared in the darkness not far from the corridor, standing straight there.

Li Huaiyun was shocked, raised his fists vigilantly, and asked in a low voice, "Who?"

"Me!" A familiar voice came from the figure, "You bastard, I didn't come back until midnight."

He saw Hong Yun walking towards him. What was this woman doing in the corridor of the courtyard after she had not slept at night? She was still wearing the same clothes she wore when she went to the lantern festival. Could she have been waiting for me?

"Auntie! What are you doing here?" Li Huaiyun said with a smile, "Oh! I see, you won't be so happy that you can't sleep because you have money!"

Hongyun knocked on his head and said, "Why can't your aunt not sleep because of these hundreds of taels? It's not because of you!"

"Auntie, do you miss me so much that you can't sleep?"

"You little brat! You're not serious!" Hongyun raised her eyebrows and opened her big eyes, "Is there anything going on between you and those two oirans?"

"What what?"

"That's what!"

Li Huaiyun smiled bitterly and said, "No! Aren't you doing something for the Demon Slayer Division? If you don't do it for real, how can you let that monster fall into the trap?"

"real?"

"Of course it's true!"

Hong Yun quickly reached out and grabbed Li Huaiyun's wrist, so fast that he didn't react at all.

"Plenty of energy and blood, full of essence! It's a sign that the body has been hollowed out!" She nodded happily, "Yes, as long as you continue to hone your own essence in the essence refining realm, and then rush into the god refining realm, then your body

The inner energy will be improved to a higher level."

Li Huaiyun is quite curious, why does Hongyun know so much? Isn’t my aunt a doctor? How come she even knows about martial arts cultivation?

"Auntie! Why do you know so well?"

"I am a doctor. I have cured hundreds of people, including many high-level people, and of course many animals!"

"Ah! My aunt has also cured monsters?"

"No! It's a guy like you who has good concentration and is worse than an animal."

Li Huaiyun was speechless at once, "Hey, aunt, I have earned you several hundred taels, why are you scolding me?"

"This little money is not enough!"

"It's not enough. I won't spend hundreds of taels of gold on my trip to prison, right? I won't have to go to prison for half my life, right?"

Hong Yun snorted, "Half your life, you'd better give me a ride in the next life!"

"Then you can't be my aunt in the next life!"

Hongyun glared at him, "You bastard, you want to talk nonsense again! Okay! Go back to your room and rest quickly," she sniffed lightly, "remember to take a shower, this smell of vulgar powder."
