Summary[]
Xie Lian had said in the previous chapter the young solider is better off with a sabre. He asks why, Xie Lian explains using a sword is restrictive and difficult to extend out. The young soldier might be even more powerful with a sabre, he's attentive to his considerations. A rustling noise appear in the woods, making Xie Lian out of his relaxed posture, he asks the soldier to be alert.
A creature jumps out of a bush, Xie Lian shoots out a blast from his palm. The binu has human stench, oddly enough. That means it killed someone. Xie Lian follows the blood trail behind the bush and the young soldier follows him from behind. After coming to an end, they find a semi-large cave with many dead bodies on the ground. They're being chewed by binus, Xie Lian sees a young woman alive that's being currently eaten by them. She wears a red bright flower on her hair. Xie Lian saves her by slaying all the binus, he's rather shocked those victims are Yong'an civilians.
He believes the white-clothed being is responsible for bringing all those binus, but Xie Lian thinks things are much more complicated. The masked being saved Lang Ying in the previous chapter, so how could they slaughter his people? Perhaps those Yong'an civilians were the cost of Lang Ying's pact with the white-clothed being.
Xie Lian treats the woman with caution by pouring his medicine on her. She tearfully explains her family had been killed, Xie Lian asks who was the murderer. She replies savagely it was him, suddenly the woman embraces him tightly. The solider immediately stabs her heart, but the woman laughs maniacally before dying on the ground. The solider asks if he's okay, but Xie Lian is feeling increadibly dizzy. Another woman's laughter appears, it's from her red flower.
Xie Lian now understands he had fallen into a trap by Land of the Tender demons. This creature drinks the essence of men, they trick them by inhaling their scent. Xie Lian tells the soldier to cover his face and not to breath into it. The flower demons excitingly talk to each other that he took the bait. The whole point of luring Xie Lian was to ruin his cultivation, which that could be obtained by abstaining from alcohol and sex.
Xie Lian asks the for young soldier to come in his side.
