"Little sister, I'm practicing and can't get up. Why don't you take the spirit wine outside the cave and let's taste it together?"
Xiao Hua began to test with half-truths and half-falsehoods.
"Why do you want to go outside the cave? Can't you make a decision for now? Forget it, since you don't have me in your heart, then you can continue practicing. I'm really leaving this time."
"Don't, don't go, little sister, I have you in my heart."
Xiao Hua's mind immediately flashed back to the scene where he was looking for Zou Shuniang everywhere, and the unforgettable feeling of parting and death came to his mind again.
"Then if you don't stop practicing and come back to drink, I'll tell you, the wine I make this time is better."
"this……".
Xiao Hua is very torn.
He really wanted to get together with Zou Shuniang, but what happened to Huang Ming before made him feel a little weird, and he always felt that something was wrong.
"Little sister, I have you in my heart, but it's really inconvenient now. Why don't you come to me and let's drink by the lake."
"What's the inconvenience? Isn't it just practice? What will happen if I stop for a while?"
"You said you still have me in your heart, who are you kidding? In fact, I already knew that the person you really care about is Juan'er."
"Juan'er?".
Xiao Hua was stunned for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat.
He mentioned to Zou Shuniang that he went to Qiuye Valley to find Juaner for help.
But he had always regarded Juan'er as a cute little sister, without any relationship between man and woman. Why would Zou Shuniang suddenly say this?
"Little sister, what's wrong with Juan'er? If you really think so, then go away."
Xiao Hua held back. He felt that this Zou Shuniang was also weird, so he decided to continue testing.
"What? You really let me go?".
As soon as she finished speaking, Mother Zou Shu flew out of the cave on her magic weapon.
Still wearing that ancient gown, and still wearing her charming smile.
"You, are you really Miss Zou? Did you really not leave?".
Xiao Hua was shocked in his heart.
Did Mother Zou really not leave? Did she really stay?
"Xiao Hua, I didn't expect that you would end up giving up. I misjudged you."
Zou Shuniang turned her head angrily.
"I started to be confused and finally gave up? No! Little sister, do you know how much I have missed you in the past six months?"
"Do you know how I spent these days? I regret it every day, I blame myself every day, do you know?".
Xiao Hua choked up a little as he spoke.
"Hmph! What you say is true. If you really missed me, how could you let me go just now?"
"If you really care about me, let's break up now and let's go back to the cave together to drink and talk."
Zou Shuniang turned around after speaking, with a charming but slightly charming expression on her face.
Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat, and then he felt something was wrong.
Although Zou Shuniang had feelings for him, she would never be so direct.
When he got close to Zou Shuniang, he used wine as a matchmaker. Otherwise, it would be impossible. There might be something wrong with this Zou Shuniang.
"Little sister, why do you insist on me relaxing and drinking now? What are you afraid of if you wait a little longer?"
"Anyway, we have a lot of time in Lingshan, so why do we have to rush?"
Xiao Hua tested again.
"I don't care, either you finish your work immediately, or I leave immediately",
Zou Shuniang's attitude was very firm.
"Then you go, I will never let go now."
Xiao Hua is already certain that this person is definitely not Zou Shuniang.
Because if Zou Shuniang wanted her to do something, she would definitely find a way to get around her instead of forcing her.
"You really let me go? Well, I am really a blind donkey who met a lame horse, you are ungrateful!".
This fake Zou Shunian was really stupid. She wanted to scold Xiao Hua, but ended up scolding herself too.
"Okay, stop pretending, who are you? What do you want to do?".
Xiao Hua said while secretly injecting mana into the thunder flag.
"I'll say it again, either you quit or I leave."
This fake Zou Shuniang continues to pretend.
"Go my way".
"Chi la".
A white lightning ball flew towards Zou Shuniang.
The ball lightning directly hit Zou Shuniang who was close at hand, but the lightning ball did not explode.
The sound of "chila" turned into a large net composed of countless small arcs, tightly covering Zou Shuniang.
"I didn't expect that you actually learned the spirit-binding thunder net?".
Zou Shuniang's voice changed and turned into a man's voice that was both strange and familiar to Xiao Hua.
Zou Shuniang, who was covered by the thunder net, also disappeared instantly and turned into a black mist.
The black mist continued to transform into various faces that Xiao Hua knew or were familiar with in the thunder net.
Not only Huang Ming, Zou Shuniang, Zhang Zili and Juaner, but also the Minotaur who escaped in the cave.
Looking at the ever-changing black mist in the thunder net, Xiao Hua couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Fortunately, he entered the later stage of foundation building and understood and refined another spell to draw the thunder flag, otherwise he might not be able to trap this thing.
"Who are you? Why do you interrupt my practice so many times?"
Xiao Hua asked.
"Hahahaha..., I am you and you are me. You are in me and I am in you. I will be with you for the rest of your life, hahahaha...".
The black mist in the thunder net finally transformed into Xiao Hua.
"You are me and I am you? You, you are the inner demon? Holy shit, you are my inner demon?".
Xiao Hua was shocked.
He immediately remembered the time when the Minotaur made him swear to his inner demon in the cave.
Did he really have inner demons because he didn't keep his oath and let the Minotaur go?
Xiao Hua was confused again.
He finally understood why cultivators valued their oaths so much.
It turns out that once the oath is violated, inner demons will appear, and inner demons will appear at the critical moment of each immortal cultivator's advancement.
If it is not enough, it will be interfered by it and the advancement will fail, or even directly explode and die.
"Yes, I am your inner demon. I was born because you broke your oath."
"As long as you still have emotions and desires, as long as you haven't become an immortal, I will always be by your side, haha...".
The inner demon in the black mist laughed wildly.
"Damn, that Minotaur is not of my race, so I don't have to keep my promise. I don't care what inner demons and liver demons you have. You dare to interfere with my practice. Go to hell."
Xiao Hua couldn't help but become angry from shame.
Unexpectedly, my perfunctory remarks about the Minotaur actually caused inner demons in me.
This is not a good thing. If this inner demon is not extinguished today, it will be dangerous in the future.
Xiao Hua didn't hesitate anymore, he raised the thunder flag and "chi-la", and another bolt of lightning struck the thunder net.
The spirit-binding thunder net began to shrink violently under the stimulation of this lightning.
In the end, a "bang" sound shattered the black mist in the thunder net, and the inner demon also turned into several streaks of clear smoke drifting in the air along with the black mist.
Xiao Hua breathed a sigh of relief. Since the inner demon can be killed, he no longer has to worry about being disturbed by it in the future.
but.
Just when Xiao Hua thought the inner demon was gone, the voice of the inner demon came again in the air.
"It's not that easy to kill me. You're lucky this time. It won't be that easy next time, ha...".
Xiao Hua was stunned again.
Didn’t expect that the inner demon is really unkillable? What to do next?
Do you have to fight your inner demons again every time you advance? Isn’t this endless?
This is trouble.
