The next day.
Around ten in the morning, Ye Fan groggily woke up.
His right arm felt numb, and Ye Fan, with a dull ache, turned his head to look.
As expected.
The little demon girl was hugging his arm and fast asleep, her drool soaking through his sleeve...
While sleeping, she mumbled in her dreams, "Ye Fan, these pig trotters smell so good..."
Ye Fan sighed dejectedly.
Fortunately, at least this brat now always wore clothes during sneak attacks and hadn't touched him inappropriately anymore...
Originally, with the little demon girl's cultivation level, she wouldn't need to sleep. But she claimed it was a sequela from a previous brain injury.
Ye Fan felt it was either nonsense, or the damned system was up to something...
After settling the bill, the two left the inn.
What followed were scattered villages every few days, not much different from what they had seen yesterday.
At noon, the two arrived near a forest on their flying bed.
The little demon girl excitedly went in and caught a wild boar, then eagerly waited for Ye Fan to feed her.
It seemed there were no demon beasts in the forest, otherwise, the little demon girl wouldn't have caught such an ordinary beast.
Half an hour later.
The aroma of stewed meat wafted out, making the little demon girl drool incessantly.
Also attracted by the smell were a group of uninvited guests.
Three cultivators surrounded them, appraising them with ill intentions.
Judging by their lecherous gazes, they were driven by lust.
After all, the little demon girl's attributes were excellent, and her body, nourished by demonic energy, exuded a seductive aura.
This wasn't something the little demon girl intentionally did; it was more like a passive skill...
"I don't recommend you do this," Ye Fan said kindly. "Really."
It wasn't that Ye Fan had any particular affection for them.
He just didn't want them to be free charging sources for the damned system...
Seeing Ye Fan's composure, the three hesitated.
They exchanged glances quickly, then nodded resolutely.
This kid was bluffing!
True powerhouses wouldn't come to these fringe areas.
Even if they did, they wouldn't be dining like this!
Just two newbies at the Foundation Establishment stage, no problem!
This woman exuded a seductive aura all over, clearly a top-tier beauty.
If they captured her and sold her to the brothels in the city, they would make a fortune!
"Kid, you'd better behave!" one cultivator glared fiercely at Ye Fan. "Or we'll sell you to a brothel too!"
"Senior brother," another cultivator looked at Ye Fan with excitement. "This kid looks tender and fair-skinned. Why don't you let me have some fun first?"
"You rascal..." the senior brother chuckled and cursed. "Go ahead, but don't take too long."
"As you command, senior brother. I'm quick," the cultivator said, then walked towards Ye Fan.
The remaining two cultivators reached out to grab the little demon girl.
The little demon girl was very unhappy right now!
She hadn't eaten for the past two meals, making her extremely hungry.
Now that she could finally enjoy a good meal, these scum had the audacity to interrupt her!
She couldn't be bothered to pretend anymore; she'd just kill them and be done with it!
"Don't kill them too quickly," Ye Fan said with a dark expression.
These guys actually wanted to engage in philosophical research with him!
Damn it!
He couldn't stand for this!
Even if it benefited the damned system, he had to vent his anger!
The battle was simple.
The little demon girl snapped her fingers, and it was over.
It couldn't even be called a battle; it was a one-sided massacre...
The three unfortunate souls lay on the ground, their faces filled with pain and despair, tightly bound by ropes made of condensed demonic energy.
The little demon girl used the same binding technique the system had used on her.
The difference was that her binding was even tighter this time.
Ye Fan's backside clenched when he saw this.
If he heard correctly, there seemed to have been a faint tearing sound in the air just now...
After eating their fill, Ye Fan began to focus his attention on the three people.
As a former powerhouse, Ye Fan naturally possessed many methods of torture.
Although he couldn't use most of them due to his lack of cultivation, he had the little demon girl.
An hour later.
The three cultivators lay motionless on the ground, their eyes completely devoid of spirit.
It was clear they had been thoroughly broken...
The little demon girl, however, looked at Ye Fan with an expression of disbelief, too shocked to speak!
The torture methods Ye Fan had made her use were beyond her understanding!
Her worldview had completely collapsed!
Were these things humans could come up with?!
They were too perverted!
As she thought, the little demon girl suddenly found it rather stimulating.
Whatever she imagined, her face turned red...
[Holy crap!]
[I never knew you were that kind of host!]
[Truly eye-opening!]
[Learned something new!]
[So stimulating!]
...
"Little demon girl, go catch some wolves, tigers, and leopards," Ye Fan casually ordered. "Preferably ones that haven't eaten yet."
The little demon girl didn't ask any questions and, blushing, plunged into the forest.
Ye Fan was bewildered.
Why was she blushing like a teapot brewing bubbles?
Women's minds were indeed an unsolvable mystery...
Before long, the little demon girl returned, carrying two large tigers.
The former kings of beasts now cowered like two startled cats, allowing the little demon girl to hold them by the scruff of their necks...
Although ordinary beasts had no concept of cultivation, their instincts told them this food was dangerous and could cost them their lives...
So, even after the little demon girl placed them on the ground, they didn't dare to escape.
Then, Ye Fan directed the little demon girl to chop up the three cultivators and throw them in front of the two tigers.
The little demon girl soothed them with demonic energy, and the two large tigers happily began to feast.
After they finished eating, Ye Fan poured two large buckets of laxatives into them.
The laxatives worked very well, and soon the two tigers produced two fresh piles.
Ye Fan crossed his arms and entered spectator mode.
This time, it was the system's turn to be dumbfounded...
It had been so focused on watching Ye Fan's performance that it forgot to recharge.
Tiny specks of light floated up from the warm excrement.
However, this time they didn't directly enter Ye Fan's body but hovered there.
It seemed the system was making some difficult decisions.
A few seconds later.
The fluorescence fell back down and dissipated...
[Intelligence module adjusting...]
The system's intelligence module was at a very high level, so high that it was almost indistinguishable from human intelligence.
But sometimes, being too intelligent was not a good thing...
"That's disgusting," the little demon girl pouted, pinching her nose. "Ye Fan, you have such hobbies?"
"Yes, I am a scummy person like this," Ye Fan said happily. "If you find it disgusting, you can go back to the contract space."
"Forget it," the little demon girl shook her head. "Who doesn't have flaws..."
"Since we're bound by life and death now, I'm already yours." The little demon girl then smiled and hugged Ye Fan's arm. "You'll never get rid of me in this lifetime."
Ye Fan's face turned ashen.
Damn it!
Why did he feel like he was in an arranged marriage?
...
