Standing atop the Morimoto Building in Kyoto, Jiang Wen overlooked the night scene. An endless stream of cars flowed, and lights shone brightly. Even after seeing this prosperous景象 countless times, he never grew tired of it.
On Jiang Wen's shoulder, Bai Jing also looked at the night view and asked, "Why not just take the child away directly?"
"If we forcefully take her away, I'm afraid she wouldn't be willing. After all, judging by her attitude towards that shrine maiden, she seems to have some affection for her. We can't be so heartless in our actions; it's better to give her a choice," Jiang Wen said.
"I didn't realize that benefactor is so sentimental. This humble servant thought that all you cultivators were ruthless and heartless," Bai Jing said, licking her paws, a smile on her face. There was a hint of teasing in her tone as she brushed Jiang Wen's cheek with her tail.

"Aren't you slandering me? I treat you with just as much affection and loyalty," Jiang Wen said unhappily, rubbing Bai Jing's head as he looked down.
He frowned slightly, then stretched his muscles. He leaped from the hundreds-of-meters-tall building, stepping into the air towards a certain place.
"I think I saw something I shouldn't have seen." The sound of wind whistled in Jiang Wen's ears, and the rapid speed of descent made everything appear blurry.
He spread his arms, enjoying the feeling of freefall. It was a more thrilling experience than flying on a sword. Inside the building next to him, various lights were clearly visible, and many people working overtime could be seen clearly.
When he was less than tens of meters from the ground, Jiang Wen righted himself and stepped onto his flying sword. With his leap, he flew into the darkness in the distance.
He saw several people surrounding a six-legged demon in the dark corners of the old city district.
They each wore masks and black trench coats.
Taking out a talisman and sticking it on his body, Jiang Wen and Bai Jing concealed their figures. The two sat next to the group, observing these busy people with great interest.
Bai Jing couldn't understand the group's chattering language, so she patted Jiang Wen's face with her paw and asked, "Benefactor, this humble servant doesn't understand what they're saying."
"Wait a moment." Seeing her perked ears, Jiang Wen stuffed a talisman into her mouth.
Once Bai Jing swallowed it, she could understand what the group was saying.
"Nakata, are these guys really useful? Why can't they even deal with one girl?!" The tall man among the group asked the thin man beside him.
"Mr. Takeo, these monsters are all creatures we've experimented on. It's impossible for them to be defeated so easily. Look at the wound on this test subject; it looks like it was cut open by a sharp blade. In my opinion, there's no cold weapon that can do this right now. So there must be some secret, or even something we don't know. After all, we were able to obtain the monster's corpse for research, and others can too."
"What you said makes sense, but this is the task the department heads gave us. Once we determine that this kind of test subject can be put into use, it will be helpful to our various endeavors. Mr. Nakata, you don't want to see us continue to be treated like dogs by those white people, do you?" The tall man's voice was calm. He kicked the six-legged demon's corpse on the ground, making a light snort.
"Also, step up the collection of more monster corpses, which are invaluable to us. The cabinet has already agreed to our demands and will invest more financial resources into this biological weapon research. As for the girl's identity, I don't know if you've investigated it."
"Obviously, none of them are good people," Jiang Wen said. "The six-legged demon is originally hatched by relying on dead people, and it must be someone who has just died. This group of people can create two six-legged demons, I am afraid they have done a lot of bad things."
The six-legged demon was not a naturally born monster, but was artificially refined. Feeding the corpse of a dead monster to ordinary people, and then cutting off their limbs to make them die, can catalyze the six-legged demon.
It's just that this demon damages Yin virtue, and usually no one will refine it.
I just didn't expect that after coming to the overseas country, Jiang Wen actually had the opportunity to see the six-legged demon, which is really a bit ironic.
"They must be hiding the corpse of the monster, why don't we go and see what it's like?" Bai Jing was eager to try. She had been in the Taoist temple for a long time, and she felt a little uncomfortable all over.
This time, coming out with Jiang Wen can be regarded as fulfilling her wish. After all, she is still a big demon, and Yan Gongli has always been very wary of her, for fear that she will cause any trouble.
"Then we'll follow them later and go see what's going on with them." Jiang Wen agreed with Bai Jing's idea. After the other people finished their work, they were ready to follow and leave.
It's just that after packing up the corpse of the six-legged demon, the tall man not only didn't leave, but walked towards the depths of the old city district.
Jiang Wen was curious as to why he didn't follow the others back, so he landed behind this person, wanting to see what he was going to do.
But he saw the tall man circling around the old city district a few times. He seemed to be particularly familiar with this place. After coming to an apartment in a corner, the tall man who returned home turned on his computer.
Then he picked up the phone on the table and dialed a special phone number.
"Master, the things you ordered have been taken care of."
"I have already found a suitable virgin for the master, just waiting for the master's order."
"Thank you, master, thank you, master. I will definitely be a good dog for the master."
The tall man licked his face, looking flattering. Listening to the voice on the phone, his expression was extremely docile, completely different from his arrogant appearance just now.
When the call ended, the man put down the phone. He took out a bottle of medicine from the bottom of the drawer and showed a happy expression after taking it.
"As expected of the San Shen Shui bestowed by the adults, if I can drink a few more bottles, I will definitely be able to be a few years younger. I have to help the adults collect more virgins, and then I may be able to get more San Shen Shui." The tall man muttered, but Jiang Wen frowned when he heard it.
San Shen Shui, he really didn't want to hear this name. He thought that everything had been settled in Yunze, and San Shen Shui had also returned to the dust. He didn't expect San Shen Shui to appear in the present world, what is going on?
Jiang Wen stared at the person not far away who was still taking San Shen Shui, and decided to take him down first and ask about the situation.
