This feeling made the Mind-Disrupting Demon extrely uncomfortable.
It was an eerie and indescribable sense of horror.
"Q-Qingling Taoist?"
The Mind-Disrupting Demon trembled, cautiously probing with its voice.
But the latter suddenly flashed a wide smile at him.
"The sll is quite alright. But the Silver Lion King Demon you ntioned..."
Qingling Taoist twitched his nose twice, regretfully shaking his head.
"There seems to be no scent more delicious than yours nearby."
What is he talking about?
What is Qingling Taoist talking about??
Facing the bizarre Qingling Taoist, an instinctive fear rose in the Mind-Disrupting Demon's heart!
It suddenly rose and fled!
But before it could escape more than a few steps, it stumbled and fell to the ground.
Too heavy.
Its injuries were too severe!
First injured by the resurrected human, then severely wounded by the pursuing human, it was already exhausted, with no strength left to resist.
Looking back at the slowly approaching Qingling Taoist, a sense of sorrow rose in the Mind-Disrupting Demon's heart.
He, a great demon of all demons, ends up dying tragically in such a desolate wilderness! Just like those fellow demon bodies, ultimately unable to escape death!
Just as the Mind-Disrupting Demon thought this was his worst fate... he saw Qingling Taoist's head twisting.
Gululu!
Gululu!
Like boiling water, or a water balloon filled to burst, Qingling Taoist's head suddenly expanded!
In the blink of an eye, his head beca larger than the demon body of the Mind-Disrupting Demon, an enormous entity, starkly contrasting with the diminutive human body.
In the Mind-Disrupting Demon's bewildernt, that gigantic human head opened a mouth like an abyssal maw, abruptly devouring him!
"No!!!!"
The Mind-Disrupting Demon cried out, but his voice was muffled halfway, swallowed into the big mouth!
With a single bite, both the Mind-Disrupting Demon's body and the soil beneath were consud by Qingling Taoist!
With chewing and digestion, Qingling Taoist's head rapidly shrank, returning to a normal human size and posture.
Qingling Taoist touched his face, where spots like a skin disease appeared.
"To completely transform the body, it will take quite a bit of ti."
He then touched his belly.
This bite could only barely fill his stomach, temporarily relieving the hunger.
"So, where will the next lucky demon be?"
Qingling Taoist's gaze turned to the distance, faintly sensing scattered and chaotic demon Qi fleeing outward.
"Strange, I restrained my aura, yet why did all the food flee?"
Saying such words, Qingling Taoist floated up, heading away from Sunset City, pursuing those fleeing demons.
...
Sunset City.
Chaos.
Confusion.
The city defense formation enveloping the entire town now confines everyone like birds in a cage.
Blood plague chaos, Sunset City is in turmoil.
Qing Anshun leads the Qing Family forces, constantly fighting on the front lines.
The blood plague, once humans, had families too.
But now they suddenly went mad, attacking on sight, so they must be dealt with.
Facing unfamiliar blood plague victims, Qing Anshun could kill swiftly without hesitation.
But when a novice of the Qing Family also turned into a blood plague victim, roaming the streets, Qing Anshun's expression changed drastically.
"Capture them, control them, and later escort them back to the Qing Family for detention."
Qing Anshun felt it was a disease, a poison, infecting these people.
As long as the source is found and an antidote is made, they can regain their sanity.
"Why..."
Behind him, soone suppressed their emotions and spoke.
Who?
Qing Anshun turned his head to find it was Chen Keqing in the team.
The mastery of the Willow Leaf Swordsmanship was quite exquisite. Approximately two or three years ago, he was personally invited to join the Qing Family.
However, at this mont, Chen Keqing seed to have gone mad, his face twisted while staring at Qing Anshun, questioning him loudly.
"Why!! Why don't you kill the Qing Family's people, yet you wanted to kill that woman just now! She was just a weak woman; even if she turned into a monster, why insist on killing her!"
Qing Anshun frowned.
Earlier, when he killed the blood creature of that courtesan, he had noticed sothing seed off with this Chen Keqing.
Now it was indeed causing trouble.
"She attacked us."
Qing Anshun frowned, pointing out the core of the issue, but Chen Keqing didn't buy it at all.
"It's all a damn excuse! Killing the innocent, double standards, is this the Qing Family's style? I, Chen Feng, must have been blind back then to join your family, which murders like it's nothing, as a guest elder!"
Smack!
Chen Keqing threw his Guest Token to the ground.
"From now on! I have nothing to do with the Qing Family!"
Chen Keqing imdiately turned and left!
"Chen Keqing?!"
"Lord Chen! There must be so misunderstanding here, please listen to Lord Qing's explanation!"
Soone in the group hurried to speak on his behalf, but Chen Keqing's figure was already getting further and further away, soon disappearing without a trace.
"Coward!"
"What a show! Just running away to save his skin, trying to make it sound noble!"
"I heard, just rumors I heard, that this Chen fellow has been making lots of money in the past couple of years and spent it all on brothel girls. Maybe the woman Lord Qing killed just now was his sweetheart, which is why he acted like that."
"It's shaless to bite the hand that feeds you, taking our Qing Family's salary and then causing a fuss with us!"
As soon as Chen Keqing left, the atmosphere in the group changed drastically.
You can't really bla them; the strength of blood creatures varies. So blood creatures even put enormous pressure on Qing Anshun.
It's understandable that the guest elders in the group found excuses to leave and save themselves.
However, understanding aside, settling scores with the Qing Family afterward is a different matter.
In so sense, this could be considered a kind of optimization and iteration for guest elders in the Qing Family.
The guest elders who remained in the group now had passed through trials of true silver and gold, and were genuine insiders.
And this group would beco the firm bedrock of the Qing Family in the future.
"Forget about him, let's continue our advance."
This was a task arranged by his father. Naturally, Qing Anshun wouldn't defy it. As for the battle results on the city wall, that kind of top-level battlefield wasn't sothing he needed to worry about.
With a wave of his hand, the group was about to continue forward when suddenly, around a corner ahead, a blood creature with eyes glowing red leaped out.
As if slling sothing, it rushed toward them while babbling incoherently.
That weak body and not-at-all-fast sprinting speed gave the group no sense of pressure whatsoever.
Faced with this level of enemy, Qing Anshun didn't even need help from others in the team; he could handle it alone.
Drawing his sword to et it head-on, Qing Anshun was about to cut down this blood creature when suddenly...
Rumble!!
The city defense formation above trembled twice, then abruptly shattered and disappeared, countless translucent fragnts falling like teors and vanishing into the air.
The formation was lifted??
Before Qing Anshun could react, the blood creature ahead visibly lost its blood-red hue from its eyes and let out a loud shout.
"Whoa! I can control my body now!!"
"Damn! What kind of hard control is this, lasting so long? How are we supposed to play! It felt like the server was down for maintenance!"
Saying this in words Qing Anshun didn't understand, the person then seed to notice the large group here and frightfully turned around to run away.
"Lord Qing?"
A subordinate requested instructions.
"Go catch him back."
Waving his hand, Qing Anshun made the arrangents, and his gaze fell on the young Qing Family mber just captured. The blood-red in his eyes was fading, and he was gradually regaining clarity.
"Uncle Anshun?"
He called out in confusion, seemingly having no mory of his experience as a blood creature.
But sothing wasn't right.
How co the guy who ran away seed to retain his mory?
Qing Anshun was puzzled.
Yet the disappearance of the formation and the blood creatures regaining consciousness was undoubtedly good news.
"Could it be... the battle in that direction has concluded?"
Qing Anshun looked into the distance, feeling sowhat anxious and uneasy.
