How could the hot-blooded Liu San still maintain his cool when he saw the coquettish and charming fox demon?

After that, not only did Liu San not kill the fox demon, he even spent several nights with her. After a few moments of courtship, the fox told Liu San that someone wanted to harm her and told him to help her.

How? According to the demon fox, it was like signing a contract and borrowing a few years of his lifespan. Liu San didn't agree at first, but after the demon fox's hard grinding, he obeyed the fox demon in the end.

However, a day or two later, Demon Fox used the same method to trick Liu San into signing another contract in the name of the family. However, after signing this contract, the Demon Fox's attitude towards him drastically changed.

So it turned out that this contract was not a simple contract to borrow lifespan. Rather, the fox demon was constantly absorbing yang energy from Liu San and his family members to help the fox demon cultivate.

Seeing that he had been tricked, how could Liu San not be angry. Not only did he have to break off all relations with the fox demon, he also had to destroy the contract. His actions completely infuriated the fox demon. In order to continue controlling Liu San, the fox demon killed Liu San's family in a fit of rage.

Seeing his family's tragic death, Liu San was furious, but didn't dare to say anything. In order to protect his own life, he had helped the fox demon in such a short period of time, causing many people to die.

However, Liu San was still a human. When he saw a familiar stranger lose his life because of him, his conscience grew more and more uneasy. Helpless, he finally moved to a new village seventy kilometers away.

Liu San originally wanted to escape so far, but the fox demon wouldn't find him again. However, Liu San was wrong. Not only did the fox demon find him, it also threatened to help him kill more people.

Hearing Liu San's words, without waiting for me to say anything, the four youngsters, led by Gangzi, rushed in front of Liu San in a fit of rage and threw punches and kicks, knocking him to the ground.

Liu San did not fight back nor did he dodge. Instead, he just stood there, allowing Gangzi to continuously beat him up. When Gangzi was on the ground, he finally said, "I deserve death. You guys can beat me to death."

Actually, from Liu San's words, I could already hear his regret. Other than the first time when he voluntarily signed the contract with the fox demon, the rest of it was due to the threat of the fox demon.

As for Liu San's unpardonable crime, he was killed just like that, so there was nothing much to say. After all, he had been an assistant for years and had caused the death of a lot of people.

However, when he thought about it again, what he did was not what he wanted. Instead, under the pressure of the fox demon, he had no choice but to save his own life.

Thus, Liu San can be killed or not, it all depends on me.

I didn't have anything difficult to do if I wanted to spare his life, but how could I explain it to the villagers and suppress the emotions of Gangzi and the others? This has made me feel troubled. I can't just help Liu San speak up for him and make so many villagers angry, right?

Liu San's original intention was not bad, but after all, he had done so many bad things. Especially now, there were even a few villagers who were bedridden because of him.

Just as I was thinking about this, Gangzi suddenly shouted to me, "Little Heavenly Master, is Liu San still of any use to you? If not, I'll kill him now to avenge the village's bedridden uncles."

Liu San lay quietly on the ground, looking like he was begging for death. He didn't even say a word of begging for mercy for himself.

After thinking about it again and again, I decided that I should first protect Liu San's life. After I finish dealing with the matter of the fox demon, I will let the village chief and the other villagers decide for themselves.

Thinking about this, I said to the furious Gang Zi, "Liu San is still useful. Without his help, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch the fox demon. Let's just let him off for now and let the Village Chief decide when we return to the village."

Gangzi thought for a moment, then looked at his companion and nodded, saying: "Alright then, we'll follow the arrangements of the Little Heavenly Master. However, if Liu San dares play any more tricks, we definitely won't let him stay."

I reached out to help Liu San up. I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Dying is not the best solution. Don't you want to avenge your family? Don't you want to avenge those who died because of you?"

Hearing me talk about this, a hint of expectation flashed across Liu San's empty eyes. "Can we really take revenge?"

"Yes, but it will put you in danger. Are you afraid?"

"I am an extremely guilty person, so I can't blame you for your death. As long as I can kill the fox demon, I can take however big of a risk I want." Liu San said firmly with a face full of anger.

"Very good." I smiled and nodded towards him. Afterwards, I called everyone to my side and made arrangements in a low voice by their ears.

That night, Liu San stood by the side of the well by himself, waiting for the arrival of the fox demon. The rest of us hid behind the huge rock not far away, constantly watching Liu San's movements.

Around midnight, a white shadow flashed before drilling. Beside Liu San, a fairy-like woman appeared. However, her every move exuded charm and frivolity.

"Little Heavenly Master, that fox demon is here."

I got up and looked over the side of the boulder. I saw Liu San was talking to the fox demon, but the fox demon was smiling proudly as he listened. It seemed like she was very satisfied with Liu San's words.

At this moment, Little Heavenly Master, you said that Liu San would not lie to us, right? If he was just trying to lie to us and now he's telling the fox demon everything, that would be troublesome.

"I'm not afraid, as long as the fox demon can appear, then it's fine. Isn't it just a small fox demon? I even killed the demon king, why would I worry about her."

Gangzi responded with admiration, "That's right, the Demonic Lord is much stronger than this fox demon, and he also died at the hands of the Little Heavenly Master. If only I could follow by his side and learn a few powerful Dao arts, then let's see who dares to bully me."

I glared at him. Based on his thoughts, I wouldn't call him a Tao technique even if he had been by my side for ten years. What's more, I don't even know a Tao technique.

I stared at Liu San's side. According to the agreement, it was about time, so I signaled to Gangzi and the rest, "It's time for us to go up. Remember what I said. When we reach the drilling site, you don't have to worry about anything else. Just protect yourselves."

"How can we only protect ourselves? We still need to protect the young mistress. Hehe."

Qing Qing blushed when she heard his words. She even secretly patted me. Honestly speaking, Gangzi really knows how to speak. This way of calling her 'young mistress' made me feel elated.

However, the current situation did not allow for me to be distracted. After taking in a deep breath, I said, "Let's go. We're leaving."
