Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty

It takes a lot of walking and a long time to get from the Daybreak Desolate Mountain to the Central Plains.

Fortunately, despite spending hundreds of years imprisoned in a sword, Long Yuan was still able to recall the general direction to their destination.

To get to the Central Plains, they also have to pass through the White Jade Snow Mountain. Crossing the mountains is already the fastest route there is. The disadvantages are that the path they go through is sparsely populated, the environment is harsh, and there is a pretty high chance of encountering many wild and ferocious monsters on the way.

However, Yue Ran was not worried about these issues. Her sole concern is about the fact that she would not be able to eat any delicious and appetizing food on such a long journey.

There is a high possibility that, in the end, all she can eat and drink to fill her stomach and quench her thirst is only melted snow.

How unpleasant is that? Just imagining such a scenario would already make Yue Ran frown in distaste. Therefore, the young woman had to make Long Yuan hunt a few more creatures for their meat to save some more gold and silver for travel. She also did not forget to buy more food to store them in her spatial ring in case of emergency, like being stuck somewhere with no food, no water, and no way to get out.

It was soon after the two embarked on their journey that the news that the Demon Cult had once again appeared swept across the world like a storm.

Word quickly spread to everyone's ears that the evil witch Yue Ran was going to wield the Sword of the Demon to harm the world. For a while, the masses inevitably fell into a panic.

But in reality, only those lower-class members of society, those individuals at the bottom of the food chain, meaning the slaves and the commoners, would be terrified of this. The rest of the aristocrats and nobles from the upper classes have already invited several immortal masters and martial artists to serve and guard them as their staff members.

In any case, Yue Ran was the only person wielding one demonic sword.

What was there to be afraid of when the evil witch, Yue Ran, was the only one against the whole world, right? After all, the destruction of the Demon Cult happened hundreds of years ago, and very few people today have actually witnessed firsthand what the Demon Cult is and what had transpired in such a turbulent period of time.

However, the two of them—Yue Ran and Long Yuan—had already entered the outer area of the White Jade Snow Mountain, so they naturally did not hear about the rumors running like the wind in the outside world.

The forest path that they chose to walk through was gradually covered with more and more snow.

Yue Ran is an immortal cultivator, and Long Yuan is a sword spirit, so they are not afraid of the cold. However, Yue Ran's cultivation was a little lower, so she had Long Yuan hunt a beast to use its skin as a coat to warm her body.

(World setting information: The line between immortal cultivation and martial arts is very thin, with almost no difference other than the fighting styles and teachings.)

The deeper they travel, the bigger the snowstorm falls, and the thicker the snow beneath their feet gets.

Not only does the snow obstruct their vision at night, but the vast snow will also sting their eyes in the morning. Ordinary people generally will not go up this mountain full of snow, so both the sword spirit and the young woman could not see anyone around at this time. Every now and then, they would come across one or two demon beasts. And when they did, Yue Ran would call for Long Yuan to release some spiritual pressure so that the demon beasts could hide away in fear to avoid unnecessary battles that would waste their energy.

"Master, there are movements ahead," Long Yuan suddenly notified Yue Ran amidst the comfortable silence.

"I see," Yue Ran said. "Let us observe it first."

With those words, Yue Ran and Long Yuan walked over to where the source of the disturbance was.

From a distance of a few kilometers away, the two—one human and one sword spirit—could vaguely see figures moving back and forth, apparently engaged in combat with a demon beast. Between the flashes of sword lights and shadows, the demon beast appeared to grow weaker and weaker, seemingly not able to hold on to its current state any longer.

When Yue Ran moved closer to the fight, she heard the man leading the group against the demon beast shouting fiercely at it.

"You evil beast!" the leader exclaimed. "You killed eighteen people from the Silver Wood Village in such a vicious way! Today, I will make you pay for your crimes with your life!"

The demon beast was not willing to show any weakness toward the human. It let out a roar and attempted to stand up, albeit stumbling to its feet, before stabilizing its body again.

"Yin Lao Ba sought me for my beauty and cheated me of my body," it said in a low, terrifying, and hoarse female beast-like voice. "I worked like a slave for him, for the Yin family, for so many years without any dignity. For more than twenty years, I have been the one doing all the housework, cooking, and cleaning tirelessly. He took advantage of my pregnancy to not only cheat on me but also beat me up! Although I am a demon beast, I have never done anything evil ever since I met him. On top of that, his mother kept getting upset at me and hit me for no reason because of him. Not only did he betray me by cheating on me, but he also gave me to others!"
