Chapter 579: Profound Foundation! Magical Artifacts at Hand! Tablet Origins! The Third Year of Emperor Jing’s Reign! One Strike!
“Fellow Daoist, don’t worry. I have a magical artifact that can alter my appearance and conceal my aura,” Minghe said with a faint smile.
Li Yanchu couldn’t help glancing at her.
Seeing the surprise in his eyes, Minghe asked, “What is it?”
“You flaunt your artifact so openly... aren’t you afraid I’ll kill and steal it?” Li Yanchu said calmly.
Minghe paused for a moment, then covered her mouth and laughed. “Fellow Daoist, you saved my life. If I am to return the favor, I will give it to you freely. Why would you need to kill me?”
Reasonable enough... Li Yanchu twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled slightly, and said nothing.
Then, Minghe produced a jade pendant and silently recited a spell. In an instant, her entire body transformed into a fox demon, the same as the fox demon women they had seen at the gates of Shituo City earlier. She assumed the form of a beautiful maiden with slender figure, long flowing hair, and a large bushy tail swaying behind her.
Turning into a fox demon... so basically she just gained a tail?
“Why a fox demon? Isn’t this a bit conspicuous?” Li Yanchu asked.
“Fox demons are beautiful. The other demons are all too ugly,” Minghe said with a look of disdain.
After observing for a while, the two noticed a human cultivator boldly barging into Shituo City. He was a stern-faced man in a cyan robe with his hands tucked in his sleeves, moving stiffly like a jiangshi dressed in human attire.
As he reached the front of Shituo City, he was immediately stopped by the city’s demon soldiers. Because they were far away, Li Yanchu and Minghe could not hear what was being said.
