Chapter 282: "Freak"
Chapter 282: "Freak"
The demons made a loud noise and quickly decided on an escape plan.
As for the soul of the woman in purple, no one intended to retrieve it for her.
However, the body of the woman lying in the center of the formation...
"Let's go, hurry up and take her away! This is not the place to divide the spoils!"
"Damn it! Do you want to take it all for yourself? Slow down and let's all go together!"
"That's right! Everyone has a share in seeing this body, don't even think about taking it all for yourself!"
"What do you mean by taking it all for myself? I'm afraid the Wolf God will catch up with us! Are you planning to divide the spoils here? Let's escape from here first, then divide the spoils in a safe place!"
The demons argued incessantly, shouting and scolding while running away.
Because the white thunder's fastest demon carried away the body of the woman in the purple clothes, the rest of the demons held on tight behind it, unwilling to let go.
For demonic cultivators, the body of a Daoist cultivator is a rare and valuable source of nourishment that comes once in a hundred years!
The bodies of highly cultivated cultivators like the woman in the purple clothes are even more treasured. Eating one piece is more nourishing than eating a hundred ordinary people.
All the demons present refused to let go of this heaven-sent delicacy and clung tightly behind the demon who ran the fastest, the white thunder, afraid that it would devour the woman by itself.
In the wilderness, the demonic horde fled while the white thunder flickered.
Inside the Water Palace of Pang River, Lu Heng stood in the courtyard as schools of colorful fish swam by his side.
At a certain moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and lifted his head to look above.
A dim yellow light pierced through the surface of the Pang River and fell into the river, hastily passing through the surging river water and flying straight towards this place.
Seeing this scene, Gu Zhou the River God quickly dissipated the formations around the Water Palace, allowing the mysterious yellow seal to enter.
As the great mysterious yellow seal flew in front of Lu Heng, it trembled slightly and directly shook off two translucent soul shadows from within.
They were a bewildered and shocked boy named Shen Wuyou, and a purple-clad woman with a terrified expression.
"This..."
The moment the woman in purple opened her eyes and regained consciousness, what she saw was the Water Palace beneath the Pang River and the white-clad man in front of her with an indifferent expression.
When she used the Chaotic Soul Technique to peek into the boy's memory earlier, she saw the appearance of the Wolf God, which made her instantly recognize the white-clad man in front of her as the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain, Lu Heng.
With no time to think about how she suddenly came to this place, the moment the woman in purple regained consciousness, she immediately knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy in a loud voice.
"The Wolf God, have mercy! The Wolf God, have mercy!"
The woman in purple exclaimed in terror, "I was forced and used by others! I was helpless and didn't intend to harm the young Wolf God!"
In the face of the notorious Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain, the woman in purple had no thought of resisting at all.
Shen Wuyou looked at the scene in astonishment, still a little confused after just recovering from the confusion of the Chaotic Soul Technique.
Lu Heng coldly watched the kneeling woman in front of him and asked, "What is your name? What is your background?"
Lu Heng asked, and the woman in purple, dare not hide anything, hurriedly replied.
"My name is Purple Fish, and I come from the West. This time, I was coerced by a powerful sorcerer, who forced us to use the Chaotic Soul Technique to summon the soul of the young Wolf God. If we didn't agree, we would have nowhere to die. I did it to save my life. Otherwise, I would never dare to offend the majesty of the Wolf God. Please, Wolf God, judge for yourself."
The woman in purple's cries and shouts sounded sincere and heartfelt. It was evident that she had been frightened out of her wits.
She looked extremely pitiful.
But Lu Heng remained unmoved and asked again, "What about the others? Do you have any companions who are also coerced by the powerful sorcerer like you?"
The woman in purple nodded repeatedly and said, "If no one coerces us, we small characters wouldn't even dare provoke the majesty of the Wolf God."
The woman in purple's aggrieved and tearful pleading made Lu Heng shake his head and scoff.
"Your cultivation level is not low, and out there you could be considered a leader of the demonic path. Even compared to the Four Elders of the Green Hell Cave, you are not far behind... The idea of you being a small character is too modest. "
The woman in purple quickly said, "Although I have some strength, I'm really nothing but a small character in front of the Wolf God. Compared to the Wolf God's divine might, someone like me is a speck of dust while the Wolf God is like the blazing sun in the sky. I am simply incomparable to the Wolf God."
Lu Heng shook his head in response to these sincere and heartfelt words.
"Among all the demons I've encountered, you are the most shameless."
Lu Heng gave his evaluation.
The woman in purple shook her head vigorously and said, "Every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. I am not uttering a word of insincerity, nor do I dare to offend the divine might of the Wolf God. If the Wolf God has any questions, I will speak without reservation and leave nothing unsaid."
"As for my accomplices and the demons who forced me and gave me orders, I can reveal everything without any concealment."
Before Lu Heng could even question her, the woman in purple spoke up enthusiastically.
"The demon who forced us to capture the Wolf God said that if we bring the Wolf God's soul to the Floating Jade Mountain, we can exchange it for a piece of the flesh of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng."
"However, its cultivation level far surpasses mine, I couldn't see its appearance, nor its origins, I only know that it has a high cultivation level, it should be a demonic entity from outside the country, not a local evil demon from the Fire Pass Country."
"As for my companions, all sixteen of them are demonic beings who came from outside the Fire Pass Country, they are all taking advantage of the chaotic situation here. The strongest among them has only condensed the five qi in their chest, and has not yet formed the three flowers atop their head."
"They are, respectively..."
Facing Lu Heng's gaze, the woman in purple didn't hide anything. She poured out everything she knew piece by piece, like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
This includes the names, origins, characteristics of her companions, as well as how to go to the Floating Jade Mountain to find that evil cultivator.
Lu Heng listened quietly on the side before speaking up.
"You confessed quite readily... but are you not afraid that once you have confessed to everything, you will lose your value to me and be eliminated?"
The woman in purple had a bitter look on her face as she said, "The moment I saw the Wolf God, I was already dead. Rumors in the martial world say that the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain is vicious and never negotiates with demons."
"So I know that if I resist stubbornly, I will only be subjected to more torture in vain. Falling into the hands of the Wolf God, for a demon like me who wants to survive, it is nothing more than a pipe dream."
"So I can only confess everything and hope that the Wolf God will give me a quick and painless death."
Lu Heng shook his head as he listened to the pitiful narrative of the woman in purple.
"Your character can indeed be considered a unique freak among demons..."
If the Moluo Evil Spirit had been as straightforward as this woman, Lu Heng would not have needed to torture and imprison the demon for five years.
So even though Huo Feng has now regained the appearance of a man, he is still being kept underground in the divine palace, unable to reunite with his wife and children.
