Chapter 292 Nie Xiaoqian’s confession.
Lu Yuan seemed not to notice Nie Xiaoqian's anxious look and hugged her tightly as he spoke.
"I won't leave. I know what you mean, but I can't live without you!"
Nie Xiaoqian was suddenly hugged by Lu Yuan. At this time, she saw two tree roots by the lake crawling towards them quickly.
So she could only push Lu Yuan away, then hold his hand and talk as they walked.
"Let's go quickly, it will be too late if we don't leave now! What the bearded man said is right, I am indeed a ghost, the kind that specializes in killing people."
When Lu Yuan heard that Nie Xiaoqian had exposed herself so quickly, he opened his spiritual sense and took a look.
They discovered that the two tree roots had already crossed the pavilion and were rapidly approaching them.
"Be careful!" Lu Yuan shouted, and quickly pushed Nie Xiaoqian away, then punched the tree root.
Nie Xiaoqian was suddenly pushed away, and then saw Lu Yuan punching the tree root.
Then Lu Yuan was knocked away by the tree roots, with blood constantly oozing out of his mouth.
He lay on the ground, and after seeing that Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen seemed fine, he smiled and said.
"As a man, how can I let a woman stand in front of me? Unless I die."
When Nie Xiaoqian heard Lu Yuan's words, she immediately flew over, but before she could say anything, the tree roots continued to attack.
At this moment, she couldn't care about so many things. She could only hug Lu Yuan and fly towards Ruolan Temple.
The tree roots behind her followed her figure closely.
On the other side, Yan Chixia came to the place where the tree demon made the noise and found that it was just the tree demon hitting two trees.
"Oh no, it's a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain!" Yan Chixia said, pulled out the sword on his back and then used the sword-controlling technique.
He stood on the sword and flew towards the direction of Ruolan Temple.
When he returned to Ruolan Temple, he found Nie Xiaoqian flying towards him holding Lu Yuan.
He saw blood at the corner of Lu Yuan's mouth, and two huge tree roots behind the female ghost.
He quickly drew a talisman on his palm and shouted loudly.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, Qiankun borrows the power, female ghost, get out of the way!"
When Nie Xiaoqian heard Yan Chixia's words, she quickly dodged and a stream of magic power shot out from the palm of Yan Chixia's hand.
With a loud bang, it hit two tree roots.
At this time, the voice of the tree demon sounded.
"Nie Xiaoqian, you actually dare to collude with others.
Humph! When you come back, I will skin you alive!"
As for Lu Yuan, when he was in Nie Xiaoqian's arms, he took away Nie Xiaoqian's urn.
Only a jar with nothing in it was left.
As the tree finished speaking, the two roots quickly shrank back.
At this time Yan Chixia looked at Lu Yuan in Nie Xiaoqian's arms and said.
"Boy, now you know, I didn't lie to you! This woman is a ghost.
You leave immediately and let me kill her!"
Lu Yuan struggled to get out of Nie Xiaoqian's arms, then protected her behind him and said.
"Big Beard, what right do you have to say that about her? Do you think ghosts will always harm people?
Just as people can be divided into good and bad, ghosts can also be divided into good and bad ghosts! As long as I'm here, you can't touch her!
Also, I don’t care whether she is a human or a ghost, she is mine for the rest of her life.”
Nie Xiaoqian was very moved by Lu Yuan's words.
When Yan Chixia heard Lu Yuan's words, his beard almost stood out with anger.
"You are so ignorant of good people! Don't you know that humans and ghosts are different?
Not to mention anything else, as long as she is with you all the time, it doesn’t matter whether she absorbs the yang energy in your body or not.
The yang energy in your body will dissipate due to the yin energy in her body. In long run, you will become sick due to the lack of yang energy.
Then you will be dead!"
Lu Yuan said indifferently after hearing Yan Chixia's words.
"What does it matter? In this world, even if I don't die at her hands, I might die at the hands of bandits.
Or it could be in the hands of an official, so it’s harmless.”
Yan Chixia wanted to refute, but when he thought about the state of the world, it was just like what Lu Yuan said, let alone dying at the hands of a female ghost.
Even if you are walking on the road, you might be killed by the police instead of the bandits.
"Forget it, I don't care about you. Do whatever you want!" After Yan Chixia said this, he used his lightness skills to fly towards the sky above the house.
Nie Xiaoqian kept staring at Lu Yuan and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
The words Lu Yuan said, "She will be mine for the rest of her life," kept lingering in her mind.
"Xiao Qian, are you okay?" Lu Yuan looked at Nie Xiaoqian and looked her up and down and said.
"No, it's okay! It's just..." Nie Xiaoqian didn't know what to say at this time.
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay!" Lu Yuan said, holding her hand and walking towards the room.
Back in the room, Nie Xiaoqian didn't know how to tell Lu Yuan, so the two of them could only remain silent for a moment.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan thought that this couldn't go on like this! He had to do something to change the situation.
"Uh, that... Xiaoqian! The bearded man said you are a ghost, so can you tell me how you died? Also, why didn't you reincarnate?" Lu Yuan asked softly.
After hearing Lu Yuan's question, Nie Xiaoqian slowly raised her head and began to tell her life story.
“I was born into an official family, but in that chaotic era, my whole family was murdered by villains.
On the way of escape, I unfortunately caught a cold and eventually died of the illness.
My father had no choice but to bury me under an old locust tree nearby.
However, I never expected that this old locust tree had actually cultivated into a demon. When I woke up again after my death, I found that I had become a ghost.
What’s even more terrifying is that this tree demon actually took away my urn and imprisoned me here with a group of other female ghosts.
From then on, we became her puppets and had to obey her orders.
Furthermore, we are forced to go out and seduce men and collect their spirits for the dryads to feed on.”
As Nie Xiaoqian narrated her experience, she couldn't help but shed tears of sadness, looking very pitiful.
Lu Yuan quickly hugged her tightly in his arms and comforted her righteously.
"Okay, Xiaoqian, I'm here with you now. Since she's a tree demon, why don't we just burn her?
Wouldn't you be saved this way?"
Nie Xiaoqian shook her head and said: "It's not that simple, the tree demon has been practicing for many years and has very strong magic power.
Even if it was during the day, if we tried to burn her, she would definitely use her magic to extinguish the flames. We are no match for her at all."
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said: "Then we can ask the bearded man for help. Just now, we saw his moves and his skills were very advanced.
He beat the tree demon away in one blow, so there must be a way to deal with it."
Nie Xiaoqian still said with some concern: "Although Big Beard hates evil by nature, will he be willing to help us?
After all, grandma is not a pushover, I’m afraid she’s not willing to fight for us!”
Lu Yuan looked at Nie Xiaoqian, wondering whether he should expose himself now.
After thinking about it, he decided that he should not expose himself, but he could let his clone come.
So he moved his mind and released a clone from the Qianyuan Realm.
Then he simultaneously made his clone look like an accomplished Taoist master.
……
"No matter what, we have to give it a try, right?" Lu Yuan said, taking her hand and walking outside.
At this moment, the clone descended from the sky and came to Lu Yuan and Nie Xiaoqian.
"Young Master! Why are you with a female ghost?" The clone bowed and asked Lu Yuan respectfully.
"Uh, why are you here? Didn't I get rid of you?
But you came just in time, quickly kill the tree monster here for me." Lu Yuan said in surprise.
Nie Xiaoqian looked at the old man in front of her who was very respectful to Lu Yuan.
She found that this person seemed to be able to kill her with just a glance, which was very terrifying.
However, when the clone heard Lu Yuan's words, he shook his head happily and said.
"Master, don't you know that we are not allowed to act arbitrarily in the mortal world? However!
You can let the female ghost next to you do it."
"You are blind, this is my wife, you should call her Madam. I don't like to hear any ghost words like 'ghost girl'.
And if she can beat the tree demon, does she still need to work so hard for others?" Lu Yuan shouted at the clone without any hesitation.
Anyway, the clone is controlled by him, so what he says is not allowed.
"Young Master, just because it's not possible now doesn't mean it won't be possible later! Look what this is?" After the clone said this, he took out a spiritual fruit of the Dragon Ball from his arms.
"What's the use of this thing! Isn't it just a fruit?" Lu Yuan said pretending to be ignorant.
However, Nie Xiaoqian's eyes were fixed on the fruit at this moment.
Her consciousness told her that as long as she ate this fruit, her strength would definitely increase greatly.
How could Lu Yuan not know the power of this thing! It was originally food for the gods to eat.
Although in the netherworld a planet is needed to support the growth of a spirit tree.
But in the Omni-King God Realm and the Destroyer God Realm, these trees are everywhere.
"Hehe, Master, you may not know this, but this fruit can greatly improve the cultivation of ordinary ghosts after eating it.
For example, those in the Qi Refining Stage, with just one fruit, can reach the late Golden Core Stage, or even the Nascent Soul Stage.
Madam, as long as you eat it, a tiny thousand-year-old tree demon will definitely not be your opponent." The clone said with a flattering look on his face.
Although Nie Xiaoqian really wanted to eat the fruit, she looked at Lu Yuan and said.
"Master? Who are you? Why would such a powerful person call you Master?"
Lu Yuan: "Well, can you not talk about this now?"
"No, you have to say it!" Nie Xiaoqian stared at Lu Yuan and said.
"Madam, let me tell you! The young master is actually out for fun.
It's not some wedding drama, don't worry."
When Nie Xiaoqian heard this, she immediately relaxed.
She knew that normal people who ran away from home were usually forced to get married or something like that, right?
Now after hearing the words of the clone, she continued to ask.
"Then why did you come out alone?"
"Haha! Isn't it boring to stay at home? So I came out for a stroll." Lu Yuan scratched his head and said with a smile.
Nie Xiaoqian looked at Lu Yuan and smiled, but soon she frowned and said.
“Even though my strength has improved, my urn is still in my grandmother’s hands.
If I don’t go back tonight, I will…”
"Young Madam, take a look, is this yours?" the clone said as he took out a jar.
Lu Yuan asked his clone to take out the urn he had just brought back from the Qianyuan Realm.
Nie Xiaoqian looked at the jar in the clone's hand, sensed it, and then drilled into it.
Then she floated out again, hugged Lu Yuan happily and shouted.
"Yeah, it's really mine. How did you do it?" Nie Xiaoqian hugged Lu Yuan and said to the clone in surprise.
"Well, this! I went to get it back when you were carrying the young master out of the pavilion just now." The clone responded.
