When Nie Xiaoqian heard this, she looked at Qin Ming in shock. She didn't understand how a weak scholar like Qin Ming dared to boast!
"Since Brother Chan has agreed, you can stay here! We will definitely protect your safety!"
Jiu 'er smiled sweetly and said to Nie Xiaoqian when she saw Qin Ming agreeing to let her stay.
When Nie Xiaoqian heard that Jiu 'er had agreed, she felt more confident. She stopped in her tracks and gave Qin Ming and Jiu' er a gentle bow. Her beautiful face was filled with gratitude.
"Thank you, Miss. Young Master will grant your wish!"
Nie Xiaoqian thought that when the thousand-year-old Tree Demon came to capture her, Jiu 'er would help, so she thanked them.
Then, Nie Xiaoqian looked at Jiu 'er and said to her hesitantly,""Miss, I have another request. My grandmother has hidden my ashes. Without the ashes, I can't leave this mountain. Therefore, I would like to ask Miss for help. When dawn comes, go to the mass grave and dig out my ashes.”
"Stop! Xiao Qian, since I've already taken you in as my maid, you don't have to be so polite! Your business is my business!"
Qin Ming heard Nie Xiaoqian's request and raised his hand to interrupt her. Then, Qin Ming saw a trace of worry on Nie Xiaoqian's beautiful face and couldn't help but say to her,"It's just taking the ashes. Why wait until dawn? You lead the way, I'll go and destroy that monster now!”
"This, Young Master, you, don't you want to ask for Young Lady's opinion?”
Nie Xiaoqian couldn't help but say to Qin Ming when she heard him boasting again.
"What Brother Chan wants is what I want!”
Before Qin Ming could say anything, Nie Xiaoqian saw Jiu 'er's beautiful eyes looking at Qin Ming affectionately as she echoed.
When Nie Xiaoqian saw this, she didn't understand. She thought that Jiu 'er liked Qin Ming's refined and handsome face, so she was obedient to him.
Nie Xiaoqian felt a little disappointed, but she did not show it. She knew that as a servant, she had no right to interfere with the feelings of her master, so she nodded and replied,"Since that's the case, Xiao Qian will lead the two of you to find that thousand-year-old tree demon. If you can deal with it, it won't continue to harm people. If you're not its match, you can just run away.”
Nie Xiaoqian said with a determined look on her face.
"What a lowly servant. She really has second thoughts and actually colluded with outsiders to plot against me! However, do you think that any cat or dog can threaten grandma? Since it's all better, let's add more nutrients to my roots!”
Just as Nie Xiaoqian finished speaking, a voice of a man and a woman came from outside the temple. It was very terrifying!
"Not good, it's coming!"
When Nie Xiaoqian heard this voice, her expression changed and she looked at Jiu 'er nervously.
Immediately after, a disgusting, long tongue broke through the door of the temple and attacked the few of them. There was still mucus flowing on it.
"A little tree demon dares to be so arrogant!"
When Qing Qiu and Silver Fox saw this long tongue, they frowned slightly. There was some disdain on their beautiful faces.
"Jiu 'er, let me do it!"
Qin Ming saw Jiu 'er was about to release the fox flame and hurriedly took the lead to rush out.
Qin Ming knew the power of Jiu 'er's fox flames. He was afraid that Jiu' er would directly burn the tree demon to ashes!
If even the corpse was gone, then Qin Ming would not be able to devour the tree demon's magic power.
Thus, Qin Ming planned to personally make a move. Qin Ming rushed up to the disgusting long tongue. Then, he used his great strength divine art and grabbed the tree demon's long tongue that was as thick as a bucket!
When the tree demon saw this, its long tongue struggled with all its might, wanting to break free from Qin Ming's embrace!
How could Qin Ming be willing to give the tree demon this chance? He exerted strength with both his arms, and with a 'he', he actually forcefully broke this big tongue from the middle.
"Ah! Just you wait! I won't let you off!"
The tree demon's tongue was broken. It wailed and retreated with half of its tongue.
And that half of the long tongue in Qin Ming's embrace turned into a branch!
"Discovered the remains of a tree demon. Do you want to devour it?”
At this moment, the system's voice sounded.
"Devour! I need magic power!"
Qin Ming immediately replied.
The vine immediately disappeared into Qin Ming's arms, and the system's voice sounded again.
"Congratulations to host Qin Ming for obtaining ten years of magic power.”
It was through this system that his magical power could be obtained!
Qin Ming felt the increase in magic power and felt very comfortable.
"Hehe, Brother Chan, how is it? Are you done playing?”
Jiu 'er saw Qin Ming's reaction and thought that he was just playing around. She didn't think that Qin Ming was trying to devour the tree demon's mana. Thus, she looked at Qin Ming and smiled.
Nie Xiaoqian looked at Qin Ming and widened her eyes in shock!
Nie Xiaoqian never expected that Qin Ming, who looked like a weak scholar, would have such great strength to break the tongue of the thousand-year-old Tree Demon, which was usually successful.
"There's no time to lose. Let's go and find it! Don't let it escape!"
Qin Ming said to Nie Xiaoqian after he absorbed the tree demon's branch and tasted the sweetness.
"Alright, please follow me! The main body of this tree demon was rooted in the mass grave a few miles west of the temple. Its main body was a thousand-year-old willow tree! The trees in the Mass Grave were intertwined. In fact, they were the main body of the Tree Demon. In the forest over there, the other trees had long been killed by it because they were competing with it for nutrients. The trees now were all separated from the ground by its roots!”
Nie Xiaoqian introduced the two of them as she led them to the Mass Grave.
At this moment, after discovering Qin Ming's abilities, Nie Xiaoqian's heart suddenly gained a bit more confidence. Her steps couldn't help but become much more cheerful, and even her tone became a bit lighter.
The three of them soon arrived at the Mass Grave.
Qin Ming took a look and it was just as Xiao Qian had said. A tall old willow tree with mottled bark was standing in the middle of the mass grave.
"Bastards, how dare you come here! Since he was already here, he could forget about leaving! I've already sent a message to Black Mountain Lord. He's rushing over from the City of Vain Deaths! When he comes, I'll give him this cheap servant and that beautiful woman. Black Mountain Lord will definitely be very happy and help me destroy you! I want to suck your flesh and blood dry to take revenge for the broken branch just now!”
From the trunk of the willow tree, a androgynous face suddenly appeared and changed. The voice was also threatening Qin Ming.
"Yo, you're quite arrogant! I'll pull out your roots now so that you won't be able to see your Black Mountain Lord!”
When Qin Ming heard the tree demon's words, he laughed loudly and walked towards the tree demon.
Qin Ming had seen the movie A Chinese Ghost Story, so he knew that this tree demon only had a few moves and was not a threat to him at all.
When the tree demon saw Qin Ming coming over, it activated hundreds of vines and waved them towards Qin Ming!
Then, the old willow tree's main body moved quickly in the soil of the Mass Grave, staying far away from Qin Ming as if it was really afraid that Qin Ming would uproot it!
Qin Ming directly grabbed the vines that were attacking him. He grabbed dozens of them and pulled hard. All of them were broken by him!
The tree demon was so frightened that it quickly retracted the other vines. It didn't dare to attack Qin Ming anymore and stayed far away from Qin Ming and the others!
This was all magic power! Qin Ming looked at the vines in his embrace and sighed. After which, Qin Ming absorbed all of them and actually obtained fifty to sixty years of magic power!
Hence, Qin Ming looked at the tree demon's main body, his eyes shining.
"Magic power, quickly pour into the bowl!"
Qin Ming looked at the thousand-year-old tree demon's main body, and it was as if he was looking at a large ball of magic power waving at him. He was somewhat salivating!
However, Qin Ming discovered that this tree demon seemed to be afraid of him. It actually acted like a turtle hiding in its shell. As long as Qin Ming got close, its main body would quickly escape. It only shot out two or three vines to stop him, as if it wanted to delay time!
At this moment, Qin Ming felt a little unhappy!
This large ball of magic power that was almost in the bowl was actually hiding from him, allowing him to see it but not eat it!
"Stupid host, have you forgotten what your original body is?”
At this moment, the cute voice of the system loli, Little Dao, suddenly sounded in Qin Ming's heart.
