The remaining few Taoist priests glanced at the beautiful female demon before them, then at their miserable companions nearby. They instinctively swallowed and took two steps back before turning and fleeing.
Seeing this, Ming Li calmly flicked her wrist. The next second, her silver sword and great iron hammer flew out...
Turning back, she glanced at the little peach demon being held down and almost having its dantian dug out. After some thought, and following the system's suggestion, she stiffly asked with a strained expression, "Are you... alright?"
The little peach demon nodded blankly and said in a daze, "I-I'm fine..." Holy cow! Is this little Li'er? Is this still the soft and adorable little Li'er? Is she really this powerful?
Hearing that it was fine, Ming Li nodded, walked over, and directly tore off the chains on the cages with her bare hands. She said, "Everyone, hurry back. Once you're back, tell those old deer to open the valley's protective formation."
The demons nodded dumbly, all looking at Ming Li in shock.
The woman with two deer antlers snapped back to reality and quickly asked, "Little Li'er, what about you?"
Ming Li paused and replied, "I have something to do, so I won't be going back for now."
The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "Then little Li'er, you must be careful outside. If you encounter danger, come back to Myriad Flowers Valley. We're all here."
Ming Li nodded, indicating she understood.
After sending the demons away, Ming Li calmly found her silver sword and great iron hammer.
At this moment, her silver sword and great iron hammer were fighting an old man with an ethereal demeanor.
Seeing her great iron hammer sent flying with a single slap, Ming Li's lips twitched. She instantly moved to catch the flying great iron hammer.
As its master arrived, the great iron hammer trembled slightly, conveying its grievance.
Ming Li paused and said in a faint voice, "What's there to be wronged about? Just fight back."
With that, she directly lifted the great iron hammer and went to attack...
"Boom—"
After a tremendous explosion, the old man with an ethereal demeanor was smashed away by Ming Li...
"Pfft!"
The old man spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at Ming Li in shock, and instinctively asked, "Who exactly are you!"
Ming Li twisted her neck and did not speak. The next second, she directly swung her hammer towards the old man.
Seeing this, the old man's pupils shrank sharply, and he quickly flashed away from his position.
The next second, the spot where he had been standing collapsed...
Seeing this, the old man instinctively swallowed and a hint of apprehension appeared in his gaze towards the woman before him...
Just as he turned to leave, a gleaming silver sword suddenly appeared before him. If he hadn't dodged quickly, the silver sword would have pierced his heart.
"Ching—"
Looking at the silver sword lodged in his shoulder blade, the old man's face was extremely grim. He quickly retreated, his figure escaping at lightning speed!
Watching the Bodhi Patriarch flee in disarray, Ming Li narrowed her eyes. After some thought, she decided not to pursue.
Her gaze fell upon the Taoist temple below. Ming Li's eyes darkened. The next second, she flicked her robe, and a strange power surged towards the temple below.
"Rumble—"
After several deafening roars, the luxuriously decorated Taoist temple collapsed completely, turning into a pile of ruins...
Within the ruins, Ming Li vaguely saw several stark white bones.
Suddenly, she sensed something and turned her head, looking towards a certain spot, only to see a swinging monkey tail.
Ming Li, "..."
Meeting Ming Li's gaze, the monkey scratched its head, its eyes bright. It quickly waved towards Ming Li and said loudly, "Master! You're so amazing!"
Ming Li's lips twitched. She put the great iron hammer and silver sword back into her spatial dimension. With a few flashes, she appeared before the monkey. After a long silence, she looked at the ruins below and said with some difficulty, "This is the place you were looking for. The one just now, was originally your master..."
