Chapter 101: Chapter 12: Demons Lurk in the City, Identity Mystery
Jinzhou, early in the morning.
The carpenter’s shop was already open.
A mature beautiful woman in black silk clothes walked out of the house, holding a heavy bundle wrapped in cloth in her hand, dripping wet with red liquid, it was unclear what it was.
She placed it at the door near a fire, taking advantage of the quietness of the early morning to burn it.
But it was inevitable for some early-rising farmers to see her.

“Good morning, Aunt Zhu!”
Passers-by would always praise her, not for anything else, but for her attractive figure that drew the eye.
In their minds, it was strange that they never knew the carpenter had such beautiful relatives before.
A nice pair, tall and petite.
They envied them, thinking it would be great to have their kind of relatives, living with them for a lifetime would be acceptable.
“Morning.”
The mature beautiful woman raised her head, responding with a smile.
As the passerby walked away, her smiling face quickly became expressionless, her gaze indifferent as she watched the bundle in the fire, slowly turning black, and the flames dimming.
A girl in a green robe walked out of the house, yawning.
“Grandma, we should go back and report the situation. Our recent plans have gone surprisingly smoothly, so it doesn’t seem too difficult.”
The mature beautiful woman spoke solemnly, “It’s smooth because no one is blocking us. We had encountered cultivators in the previous two times, but we haven’t met any so far, which is why we still can’t be careless.”
“Furthermore, those Bat Demons have been unable to keep their mouths shut since we entered Jinzhou, always feeding in the middle of the night, nearly attracting the attention of the government office.”
There was an inevitable disgust in her tone when mentioning the so-called Bat Demons.
If it weren’t for the Spider King’s orders, she wouldn’t have bothered with these stinking bats.
The girl in the green robe laughed softly, “They can only act at night, and they fear light, so they probably can’t contain their anger right now.”
“Enough talking, let’s go back to the cave”, the mature beautiful woman said indifferently.
“Understood, Grandma.”
“Take care of the house.”
Before the two left, the beautiful woman instructed the two dull figures inside the house.
The two figures inside nodded blankly. Upon closer inspection, one would notice their faces had caved in, as if their entire beings were empty.
Tn the Tianmll Mountain area-
Located hundreds of miles away from Jinzhou City, the area was densely covered with jungle, steep mountains, and deep valleys, easy to defend and difficult to attack. This place should have been where bandits gathered, but a terrifying powerful demon emerged a hundred years ago. It occupied this place and named it Blackwind Cave. Since then, this area has become a gathering place for many demons.
Although Blackwind Cave was named after a cave, it covered a large area. Over the past century, any famous demon appearing in the Tianmu Mountain area would reside in Blackwind Cave, effectively creating a brand effect.
Because of the terrain, there were many demons here, constantly emerging. Even if the sects made an effort, it would be difficult to completely eradicate them.
Killing them would only produce more, like cutting grass and attempting to remove the roots, but to no avail. Furthermore, the demons had become smarter and hid without revealing themselves.
The sect could only watch and wait for a moment of unguardedness.
Today’s Tianmu Mountain remained peaceful.
Deep in the forest was a pitch-black cave, wet and damp inside, filled with the sound of dripping water and exuding an eerie atmosphere. Standing at the entrance, one could smell a strong bloody stench mixed with the foul odor of corpses.
Entering the cave, skulls were piled up like mountains, and bones littered the ground, forming a ghastly white path. Human skin and flesh had turned to mud, and even some intestines remained tangled on sharp rocks.
This scene resembled purgatory on earth.
A giant spider stood in the bloody pool formed by the bone pile. One of its legs was as tall as three people. Its bulging abdomen was covered with sharp black spines, which looked like hair.
Strangely, the spider’s head had a woman’s face. Its eerily beautiful features were disconcertingly charming and exquisite, with long eyebrows, charmingly mischievous smile, and raven hair draped over its enormous body.
At this moment, she was using her over-a-meter-long tongue to suck the essence from the bloody pool.
“Hahaha! It’s so much more leisurely in the cave. Being in the human world these days has been suffocating me!”
After the Blackwind Granny absorbed the essence and blood from the bloody pool, she still seemed unsatisfied. She stretched out two thin fingers like onion roots into the bloody mist and rummaged around. Soon there was a black object in her palm, slowly pulsing as if it were a heart.
Human hearts were her favorite part, always insatiable.
After examining the heart for a while, she swallowed it.
The rich qi and blood instantly spread throughout her body, increasing her strength
“Hahaha! ”
Blackvvind Granny suddenly laughed loudly, the sound echoing and shaking the entire mountain range, making the whole 800-miles of hills tremble as if an earthquake had occurred.
Her eerily bizarre face showed a trace of pleasure, as if she took great joy and satisfaction in devouring these people.
“I’ve finally recovered almost completely! ”
“Immortal Yearning Sect, I will make you pay with your lives!”
Back then, Lu Wanqiu’s sword shattered her flesh body, but now, thanks to the bloody pool, she had finally cultivated it back again.
Whoosh-whoosh!
A demon wind blew from the deep mountains, the leaves rustling.
A huge black shadow loomed over the mountain range, landing on the hillside and arrived at the entrance of the cave. It revealed a rat-like face, with blood-red eyes and sharp fangs, seemingly shaped like a bat.
Its body quickly shrank, eventually transforming into a man dressed in black..
