Chapter 475: Intervening. Distinguishing Bulls.

“Trust you? To let you mislead us?” someone said coldly. This group of young men appeared sharp. They were powerful cultivators.

The Bull Demon twisted its body and said listlessly, “It wasn’t me. Miss Gao Yue and I are in love. Why would I harm her father? Let go of me, if you capture me now, the actual murderer will be escaping!”

“Ha-ha, in love with Miss Gao Yue?”

One of the young men had a cold face on. “You’re lured by Miss Gao Yue’s beauty! You wanted to get hold of her but Master Gao objects, so you got angry and wanted to kill him!”

With that said, an uproar was heard.

The crowd made sense of it. They looked at the Bull Demon with disgust.

“I see, Master Gao’s been kind all his life, and yet, he was harmed by a Bull Demon! Sigh! What a pity!”

“The Gao family fed this yellow bull for more than ten years. This demon’s so cruel! What a cruel demon!”

“You never truly know someone completely. This yellow bull helped my farmland before. I thought it was a good demon, who’d have thought…”

“I pity Miss Gao Yue…”

The crowd was discussing and pointing at the bull.

Li Nianfan was curious and found out about it. He knew the story plot briefly.

So, this yellow bull had been plowing for the Gao family. Everyone thought it was an ordinary yellow bull that was hardworking and they all liked it.

However, as time passed, they gradually felt that the yellow bull was not ordinary. More than ten years had passed and it never aged. Furthermore, it seemed extraordinary from time to time. It was not only hardworking, it even protected the village from the surrounding demons. The crowd then realized that this yellow bull was a demon.

Although they were shocked, they were still able to accept it. After all, they had grown to know this bull well. They treated it as a good demon and liked it. It was quite normal in this cultivating realm.

However, some changes happened three years ago because…this bull demon fell in love with Miss Gao Yue.

It was taboo for a demon and an ordinary person to fall in love. It was not well-received.

They treated the bull as a good bull and yet, it fell in love with the master’s daughter?

This triggered Master Gao a lot. He was against this!

Therefore, no matter how the bull demon pleaded or how Miss Gao Yue pleaded, Master Gao did not budge. If it was not due to his inability to fight against this bull, he would have cooked it!

Last night, Li Nianfan even saw Black and White Impermanence bringing Master Gao back to the Underworld. He was thoroughly dead and it made sense to suspect the bull.

Watching the reaction of the crowd, Li Nianfan could not help feeling emotional. Men and demons were different. This was a deeply-rooted concept. Although the Bull Demon seemed okay normally, when something happened, it was the first suspect and target.

Meanwhile, a few more people walked out of the house. One of them was a woman, 28 years old. She was in her blooming age, dressed in a light green silk dress. She looked like a woman from a wealthy family.

She looked at the bull with her reddened eyes. Her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief as she questioned sadly, “Why did you kill my father?”

The Bull Demon looked at Gao Yue and said emotionally, “Gao Yue, I swear, I wasn’t the one killing your father! As I said, Ancestor Gao was kind to me, so I came here to return the favor. If Master Gao’s in trouble, I’d use my life to protect him! Why would I kill him? Trust me!”

Li Nianfan looked at the woman and the bull. He could feel the love and tension between them.

This Gaolao Village was indeed a strange land. It was either a human and pig or a human and bull. What a land of nice dramas!

“Ew! How daring of you, you demon! How dare you defend yourself!”

Behind Gao Yue, a tall, strong young man spoke. He was in a white robe. His face was handsome but he seemed flirtatious.

He said with a definite tone, “Master Gao’s body was obviously stabbed by a bull’s horn! Who else could it be other than you!?”

The Bull Demon cried out, “That’s impossible!”

The young man smiled coldly. He made a gesture and said, “Bring out Master Gao’s body! Show it to the Bull Demon!”

Instantly, four people carried out a stretcher with Master Gao’s body. On his chest, there was a terrifying hole stabbed through. Fresh blood was flowing out. It was terrifying.

Looking at her father, Gao Yue started wailing. By the side, the young man sighed and comforted her while glaring at the Bull Demon.

Master Gao was severely wounded and it was a big hole. It was indeed not caused by any weapon other than the bull horn.

The Bull Demon looked at Master Gao’s body. Its tears were streaming down as it sobbed, “I didn’t kill Master Gao. Gao Yue, please, trust me!”

Gao Yue shook her head. “How am I supposed to trust you?”

“Gao Yue, a demon is a demon. They’re not like us humans. Now that we have all the evidence, there’s no way for it to defend itself!” The young man scoffed. He continued, “Go ahead, kill this heartless Bull Demon!”

Whoosh!

With that said, the flying sword appeared again with a whooshing sound. The sword was dangerously sharp as it went right into the bull demon’s head!

The sword was powerful, just like the cultivators.

Gao Yue could not bear to watch it. She parted her mouth but hesitated.

Meanwhile, a voice was heard from the crowd. “Stop!”

However, the sword did not stop. It did not care. It was about to stab right into the Bull Demon’s head.

Right at the moment before the sword went through, a small hand reached out by the side and precisely caught the flying sword.

The sword was making a buzzing sound but it was unable to get out of the grip.

Nanan played with the sword in her hand. She said coldly, “My Brother asked you to stop, didn’t you hear?”

The flirtatious young man frowned. His eyes were glowing. “Who are you? Are you with this Bull Demon?”

The young man controlling the sword said anxiously, “Let go of my sword!”

“I don’t care who you are.” Nanan raised her hand and the sword instantly fell before the man.

The man picked up the sword and looked at it with pain in his eyes. “How dare you do this to my treasure!?”

Nanan’s eyes glinted with a piercing chill. She said coldly, “Hmph! How dare you ignore my Brother! I’m being nice to you by not killing you!”

To her, Li Nianfan was her world, her everything. Everyone had to obey every word he said!

Li Nianfan asked them to stop and yet, this man did not seem to care. This triggered Nanan a great deal. If it was not for Li Nianfan who told her not to kill the innocent, she would have killed them all!

Other than Li Nianfan, everything was nothing to Nanan!

The man was intimidated by Nanan’s Qi. He could not help taking a step backward. He said in a trembling voice, “Demon…demon!”

Nanan scoffed back at him, “You’re the demon! You’re all demons!”

The flirtatious young man’s eyes glinted. He frowned and asked, “May I ask what you mean by that?”

He was not brainless. Nanan was able to easily catch the treasure sword. This showed that she was way more powerful than that man. She was at least a Golden Core cultivator!

Furthermore, Nanan was so young with such high cultivation. It was best to not offend her.

“I asked you all to stop.”

Li Nianfan gradually walked out from the crowd. He smiled and made a gesture, “My name’s Li Nianfan, greetings to you all.”

The Bull Demon looked at Li Nianfan and Nanan. It was perplexed. It did not expect anyone to save it. It was feeling very grateful. “Thank you so much for helping me. I didn’t kill Master Gao.”

The young man asked, “Can you give me a reason?”

Li Nianfan said, “The reason’s simple. Master Gao was not killed by this bull demon.”

With that said, everyone was shocked. Gao Yue’s eyes lit up. She looked at Li Nianfan and asked, “Could you please explain why? I thank you for this.”

Li Nianfan shook his head. “Simply because the wound wasn’t caused by the bull horn.”

“Nonsense!” Someone doubted it right away. “If this wasn’t caused by a bull horn, what weapon could cause this?”

“It’s indeed caused by a bull horn, but not the horn of a Bull Demon.” Li Nianfan smiled. He continued, “If I’m not mistaken, this wound was caused by a female bull! And the Bull Demon’s a male bull, so it’s different.”

Instantly, everyone was stunned. They were confused and did not think about this.

Li Nianfan picked up the chopped-off horn from the ground and looked at it in his hand. He said, “Look, the male bull’s horn is bent. If one was stabbed by this horn, more than one hole would be made. The wound will open up on two sides. On the other hand, a female bull’s horn is straight. That’s what caused the wound on Master Gao.”

Everyone fell silent. Everyone was stunned. Thinking back, this did make sense.

One had to admit that the way to examine a dead body was too far behind in this realm. They could not even distinguish wounds and tell the difference. This was the key.

Even the flirtatious man was stunned. He could not help looking at the other young man. He asked with voice transmission, “What’s the matter? I asked you to find a bull horn and you did this?”

The other young man felt wronged. He said bitterly, “Young Master, I didn’t mean to. I didn’t know there were male and female bulls!”
