Lin Yi quickly pinpointed the location, and without bothering to punish the two scoundrels, rushed towards the direction of the monster.

At that moment, in a secluded little house in the village, a little girl lay on the bed, her breathing hot.

She had a high fever, but no one was there to take care of her, and her head was spinning.

In her hazy state, she heard a grinding sound, very close to her, as if it were right next to her bed.

She was terrified, but she couldn't open her eyes.

But she could almost see that the monster had red eyes and sharp fangs...

Her heart was overwhelmed by fear, as if she were about to be bitten off by a monster at any moment...

However, this did not happen.

Lin Yi rushed over and saw this scene. According to custom, he should have beheaded him with one sword and the matter would have been over.

However, when he raised his sword, he noticed something amiss.

The monster did not attack anyone.

She rolled on the ground in agony, letting out low growls.

The monster seemed to be conscious, and she dared not make too much noise.

It was because he discovered something strange that Lin Yi stopped.

Since he's already there, nothing will happen.

Taking advantage of this free time, Lin Yi began to examine the newly opened page of the Demon-Slaying Manual.

[Corpse Demon Jiang Linglong: A zombie transformed by a curse and tainted with demonic characteristics, but retains a degree of rationality due to her strong will and unwillingness to harm humans. Killing her grants 50,000 years of cultivation and the blood of a drought demon.]

Upon seeing her name, Lin Yi was immediately stunned.

She is Jiang Linglong!?

Lin Yi remembered this person very clearly.

She was a brave and wise woman who overcame the odds and remained steadfast and unyielding.

This was also the first person he killed who he was very unwilling to kill.

Out of respect for her, he buried her himself.

Could it be that I chose the wrong place, causing her to turn into a zombie?

If that's the case, he'll really have to take the blame.

Jiang Linglong was still writhing in agony, and the direction she was rolling was away from the helpless girl on the bed.

She tried to climb out of there to avoid endangering the girl. To do so, she even opened her mouth and bit down on a ceramic bowl that had fallen to the ground.

Jiang Linglong has excellent teeth, so she easily crushed the pieces. Using the fragments to get stuck in her mouth, she struggled to crawl out.

Such a gesture moved Lin Yi deeply.

Jiang Linglong didn't notice Lin Yi; she just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

If she could, she would wish to be killed soon.

She knew that one day she would lose control of herself.

She began to suppress her bloodlust from the very first moment it arose.

She discovered that she had become a non-human monster, so she began to hide in the mountains, but her bloodlust grew stronger every day.

Sometimes, a voice inside her would urge her to drink the blood of beasts.

As long as it's not about killing people, drinking animal blood shouldn't be a problem, right?

But she knew she couldn't do that.

Once the bottom line is crossed the first time, there will be a next time.

For several months, she tried her best to suppress herself.

Until the night of a full moon.

She woke up to find herself covered in blood, with a drained tiger lying beside her.

After that, she began to hide deeper into the mountains and forests, but every full moon night, she would go mad.

The scariest thing is that her instincts will lead her out of the mountains and forests.

She longs for places where there are many people.

When she's rational, she runs into the mountains; when she loses her rationality, she goes outside.

As the struggle continued, her rationality waned.

Recently, she has been seen in areas where people are active.

Today, she sensed an incredibly delicious aroma and even managed to find her way to a village of mortals.

When she saw that girl, her blood boiled.

It was an instinctive desire.

Fortunately, she regained consciousness with tremendous willpower.

Despite the physical pain that brought her to the brink of madness, she still found her own way to stay conscious.

Get out of here!

Go and seek liberation!

Jiang Linglong has realized that she may not be able to hold on next time.

So she went to find someone who could kill her.

As luck would have it, just as she climbed out the door, she saw a man wearing a silver-white mask and dressed in all black.

This person is very strong.

Clearly, he must have come to kill him.

"Finally, I'm free."

Jiang Linglong finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to die at someone else's hands than to become a monster.

Her tense nerves relaxed, and her body followed her instincts, launching her into the air and heading straight for Lin Yi.

This is the instinct of hunting.

Lin Yi looked at her, covered in dirt, and suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

She was originally a princess, but she has fallen to this state.

In retrospect, all of this is related to him.

If he hadn't failed to choose a queen, the Yuezhi tribe wouldn't have suffered such a devastating blow.

If he hadn't had compassion and hadn't scattered the enemy's ashes as usual, she wouldn't have turned into a monster.

At that moment, Lin Yi suddenly realized a truth.

There must be some kind of cause and effect between him and Jiang Linglong.

"Although I don't know how you ended up like this, I will do my best to help you get out of this predicament."

Lin Yi calmly dodged Jiang Linglong's attack, easily grabbed her wrists, and pinned her hands behind her back. Lin Yi quickly took out a rope and tied her up.

This is certainly not an ordinary rope; it was made from the skin and tendons of a powerful monster he killed, making it extremely tough.

Even with Jiang Linglong's immense strength, she couldn't break free and could only let out screams.

Now everyone in the village heard it, and for a moment, the breathing of every household subsided.

The couple who had been having sex in the wild were now completely limp.

I thought the vampire monster was just scaremongering, but I never expected it to actually reach the village.

Lin Yi ignored the panic caused by Jiang Linglong. He went into the house and cast a spell on the poor child with a fever.

Healing mortals is quite simple.

Lin Yi could save her temporarily, but not forever.

Thinking of her disgusting mother and the villains who coveted her, Lin Yi didn't hesitate any longer. He casually cast a lightning spell, which accurately struck the couple.

comfortable.

Although killing is wrong, Lin Yi is not pretentious.

"You are a lucky person. Now that I've made a move, I can't just leave you behind."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi took out a spirit sword he had forged himself from his cloud bag, and also left a sword manual and cultivation techniques.

He still had to take care of Jiang Linglong; that was the plan for now.

If fate allows, we will meet again in the future.

Lin Yi picked up the screaming and struggling Jiang Linglong and flew away. After passing a small river, Lin Yi threw her directly into it.

Jiang Lingling was covered in dirt, so Lin Yi decided to wash her first.

It's strange, really.

Despite how dirty she was, Lin Yi could smell a pleasant scent emanating from her.

He couldn't quite describe the taste, but in short, he liked it quite a bit.

After falling into the water, Jiang Linglong regained some of her senses.

She stopped struggling and, taking advantage of her regained senses, said to Lin Yi, "Kill me."

Is there any way to save you?

Seeing that she was able to communicate, Lin Yi asked the question directly.

Jiang Linglong initially thought this man was there to kill her, but to her surprise, he actually wanted to save her.

This stunned her for a moment before she said, "I don't know, you might as well kill me."

Next time, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself.

What's more terrifying than death is seeing yourself become a walking corpse.
