"What?" I jumped to my feet. "Where is she?"
"The direction indicated by the copper coin points to the Wan She Lin at the border of the demon tribe!" A Jing paused, "But Xiaoman, this has nothing to do with you. Are you sure you want to go?"
I clutched the copper coin, my mind in a chaotic swirl.
Logically, I shouldn't wade into this murky water, but I couldn't shake off the image of that Little Fox Spirit's guilty expression when she was caught sneaking a bite last night, along with her smiling face saying, "It tastes good..."
I gritted my teeth and tucked the Copper Scraper into my waist.
"Let's go! She ate so many skewers of Da Yao Zi last night and hasn't paid me yet!"
"A Jing, do you know who the opponent is?"
"It's... Jiang Haotian..."
I paused in my tracks. "Ha, it's actually my 'good big brother'..."
In an instant, some long-buried memories surged forth to attack me—
The Jiang Family Ancestral Hall, rainwater dripping from the eaves...
The righteous Jiang Haotian stood at the door, looking at me with disdain, while behind him were the indifferent gazes of the clan elders...
"Worthless waste, you are unworthy of the Jiang family's bloodline."
...
Jiang Haotian would never act against Su Yan without reason. I knew this person all too well; he was always ruthless and likely had his eyes set on seizing demon power!
Could it be?
Suddenly, a thought struck me, and I stumbled slightly, nearly hanging onto a tree branch.
Could it be that Jiang Haotian dared to disregard clan rules...
And activate the family taboo of the Refining Demon Technique?!
If that's true, then that would truly be an act of great rebellion!
Wan She Lin was thick with demonic energy.
I ran frantically and finally found Su Yan in a clearing within the forest. She was surrounded by several of Jiang Haotian's subordinates, clearly at a disadvantage.
"Stop!" I shouted, swinging my blade towards the two closest men. They were caught off guard and were knocked to the ground with a heavy thud.
"Jiang Xiaoman?" Jiang Haotian, watching from the side, squinted his eyes in shock as he sized me up. "I thought it was someone important, but it turns out to be you, the useless one."
I positioned the Copper Scraper in front of me. "You'll find out whether I'm useless or not very soon!"
With that, I raised my hand and unleashed a blade of light aimed directly at Jiang Haotian. He didn't expect me to take the initiative and hurriedly stepped back to regain his balance. The two large trees beside him bore deep gashes from my attack.
"Your cultivation level..." Jiang Haotian stared at me in disbelief, and soon his gaze fell on the Copper Scraper in my hand.
His expression changed suddenly. "Copper Scraper? That old man actually left the Copper Scraper to you, a useless one?! Why?!"
I rolled my eyes. "Because I won't go against the clan rules he established! Using the Refining Demon Technique to seize power from the demon race? Jiang Haotian, you're insane!"
Jiang Haotian was taken aback, clearly not expecting me to guess about the Refining Demon Technique so quickly. His expression hardened as he stepped closer to me. "You know nothing, you useless fool! Once I complete what the Jiang family has been striving for over centuries, even Grandpa in spirit will know how foolish his choice was!"
He suddenly waved his hand, unleashing a powerful surge of spiritual energy that forced me back a few steps.
Jiang Haotian sneered. "A useless one is still a useless one. You think you can stop me?"
I tightened my grip on the Copper Scraper and stepped in front of Su Yan. "Whether I can or not, we'll find out!"
