Chapter 94: Cursed with the Love Gu
The moment Yun Jiao spoke, not only Qi Cheng but also the village chief and the four exorcists broke out in a cold sweat.
Perhaps because Yun Jiao had chatted so casually with that little cat demon earlier, they had subconsciously downplayed the girl’s identity. They’d even worried that Yun Jiao had been too trusting—believing the demon’s words and letting her return to the demon realm so easily.
Now that they thought about it, they realized how naïve they’d been.
Clearly, Yun Jiao had known exactly who that cat demon was, which was why she’d avoided any direct conflict.
If they hadn’t been so weak—if they had actually killed that snake demon, and then decided to “take care of” the cat demon while they were at it…
All four of them shuddered simultaneously, unwilling to imagine what might have followed.
“So,” Yun Jiao said, taking a deep breath, “this is no longer just about returning the demon core. This could become a war between the human and demon realms.”
Her words might have sounded exaggerated, but they weren’t empty threats.
If not for her master’s presence, if not for that fox who’d conveniently summoned her for a house call, this incident could easily have escalated into a full-blown interrealm crisis.
