Chapter 221 Demon God
"A weakness...a Achilles' heel?"

An Yangli was stunned for a moment, a hint of confusion flashing in her obsidian-like eyes.

“That’s right.” Li Zhe nodded, a hunter’s glint in his deep eyes. “Everyone has their own ‘weakness,’ which is the deepest, most vulnerable, and least willing place in their hearts to be touched.”

Tell me, what is your weakness?

"I...I have no weaknesses!"

An Yangli subconsciously denied it.

But her shifty eyes had already betrayed her inner panic.

"is it?"

Li Zhe smiled and slowly took the huge wine gourd from her waist with his other hand.

"I've heard that you're a heavy drinker and can't be happy without alcohol."

He opened the gourd stopper, and a rich and vibrant aroma of wine instantly filled the air.

"This 'monkey wine' must taste pretty good, right?"

An Yangli looked at the wine gourd in his hand, and a trace of heartache flashed in her obsidian-like eyes.

But she remained biting her lip tightly, not uttering a word.

"It seems that alcohol is not your weakness."

Li Zhe shook his head and casually dumped the gourd of "monkey wine," worth a thousand gold pieces, onto the ground as if it were trash.

"you……!"

An Yangli looked at the wine spilled all over the ground and almost burst into tears from heartache.

But she still didn't speak.

Looking at her stubborn and unyielding demeanor, Li Zhe couldn't help but feel a little admiration.

This woman was even more principled than he had imagined.

but……

Even the hardest bone can be broken one day.

His gaze fell on An Yangli again, scrutinizing her carefully.

Finally, his gaze settled on her neck.

On that seemingly unremarkable necklace woven from the tendons of an unknown monster.

Below the necklace hangs a piece that has long been worn and blurred.

But you can still see the delicate outline of this small longevity lock.

"And what is this?"

Li Zhe reached out and gently grasped the longevity lock.

"No...don't touch it!"

An Yangli's body trembled violently.

For the first time, a deep-seated fear and pleading were revealed in those obsidian-like eyes.

"I beg you... please don't... don't touch it..."

"Oh?"

A playful smile curved the corners of Li Zhe's mouth.

found it.

……

Under Li Zhe's "friendly" communication, which was full of "coercion and enticement," An Yangli finally revealed her deepest secret.

It turns out that she was not an orphan without parents.

She was born in a remote mountain village to ordinary parents.

When she was very young, her hometown was invaded by a terrible demonic force.

Her parents died tragically at the hands of demonic cultivators while trying to protect her.

She was rescued by a passing elder of the Misty Cloud Sect and taken back to the sect.

That longevity lock was the only keepsake her parents left her.

It was also the only spiritual support that kept her going in this cruel world of cultivation.

The reason she cultivates so diligently and spends so many years training and fighting demons is because...

It was not for the sake of "restoring the righteous path" or for the sake of "sect honor".

She just wanted to...

To become stronger.

Then, he would take revenge for his parents with his own hands.

……

After hearing her story, Li Zhe fell silent. Looking at the woman in front of him, who appeared carefree on the outside but carried such a heavy past on her heart, he felt a complex and indescribable emotion welling up inside him.

He loosened the longevity lock.

"Feel sorry."

He spoke softly, his tone carrying a barely perceptible hint of apology.

"I have no idea……"

An Yangli was stunned.

She stared blankly at the man before her, who exuded an aura of mystery and power.

Those obsidian-like eyes were filled with unbelievable shock.

She never imagined that after learning her biggest secret, the other person would actually...

Apologize?

This……

This is completely different from what she imagined!

"I will avenge you."

Li Zhe's voice was calm yet powerful, filled with an unquestionable resolve.

"In exchange..."

He paused, a wicked smile curving his lips.

"From now on, you'll come with me."

……

After experiencing a "misunderstanding and reversal" that led to a "friendship through conflict" scenario.

Another person has joined Li Zhe's side...

He is incredibly strong, has a hot body, a bold personality, and is a devoted follower of his.

Meanwhile, the Misty Cloud Sect, through the combined efforts of Shangguan Wan'er, Lin Feifei, and An Yangli—three outstanding beauties with distinct styles—rose at an incredible speed.

Their fame quickly spread throughout the entire righteous alliance of the Tianyuan Continent.

Even the powerful figures of the demonic path who were entrenched deep in the demonic realm felt a deep sense of dread towards this legendary "beauty sect".

Of course, all of this is inseparable from the person behind the scenes who silently provides various "elixirs," "cultivation techniques," and "strategic guidance"...

The mysterious "Guest Elder".

……

After the Misty Cloud Sect got on track, Li Zhe did not choose to enjoy a comfortable "retirement" life with women on both sides.

My journey is far from over.

He wants to become stronger, strong enough to break free from the shackles of this world and find his way home.

He needed to find out who the "Observer" who had transported him to this world really was.

he wants……

I'll break its neck with my own hands.

After all the affairs within the sect were properly arranged...

He embarked on his journey once again.

This time, his target is that legendary place filled with death and taboos...

Demon domain.

……

The Demon Realm is a lawless land on the Tianyuan Continent, shrouded in endless demonic energy and filled with chaos and slaughter.

This place is a paradise for demonic cultivators and a hell for righteous cultivators.

Li Zhe ventured alone into this dangerous land.

He was like a calm hunter, moving through the darkness.

He hunts down those "prey" that he sees as full of "nutritional value".

Their own strength was also growing at an almost abnormal speed during this bloody and bloody "hunt".

In just one year, he completed the path that other cultivators would take hundreds or even thousands of years to traverse...

His reputation, like a plague, spread rapidly throughout the entire Demon Realm.

"Have you heard? A killing god has recently emerged in the Demon Realm!"

"Yes! I heard that he specializes in hunting down powerful demons, and then... he devours their golden cores and nascent souls whole!"

"Holy crap! That's insane?! Just who is that guy?!"

"I don't know, I only know that he calls himself... 'Demon God'."
