After doing all this, Bai Qian looked at the lion demon.

The lion demon lay prone on the ground, feeling the girl's cold gaze, not daring to move, its body trembling with nervousness.

Bai Qian looked at the lion demon, then glanced around, and only then did a hint of doubt appear in her eyes.

"Where is this?" she asked.

The first question asked almost made the lion demon faint.

You've almost wiped out all the demons here, and you still don't know where you are?

"This is Xinglin Temple, located west of Taiheng City."

Bai Qian tilted her head upon hearing this, indicating that she had become interested.

"Are the apricots here delicious? Are they still available?" For her, this was probably a hundred times more important than any so-called Hundred Demon Pavilion.

The lion demon remained silent, unsure how to answer the question; how could it possibly know?

But she didn't need it to answer; Bai Qian simply looked at it.

"I don't know?" she asked, puzzled.

The lion demon felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave.

At this moment, it became certain that the girl in white opposite it was not human, but a monster wearing human skin, a thousand times more bizarre and terrifying than any demon.

She only ever saw herself as...food.

Love you all????

Volume 1: 237. We're friends, why are you running away?

The lion demon lay prostrate on the ground, feeling only a strange fear under the gaze of the black-haired girl in front of it.

This fear was not unfounded. After all, just thinking about the fate of Bu Chen and those bird demons made it clear that if it didn't find a solution, its own fate would not be much better than theirs.

As for hoping she'll let me off the hook?

It had never expected that. The gaze directed at it now was very similar to the gaze it had once given to those people—not one of equality, but merely the malice of seeing them as prey.

Bai Qian stood in front of the lion demon, blinking gently at the lion demon who was practically kowtowing to her several times. She hadn't yet figured out how to deal with the lion demon. Before coming here, she had mentioned it to Bai Yao, who hadn't stopped her, but still followed the previous instructions: as long as it wasn't too excessive.

Only the lion demon is left.

We can't just kill it directly. If we did, it would be no different whether it came or not. We wouldn't know anything about the monster's lifespan or blood essence.

But how do we conduct an interrogation?

I pondered for a while, feeling a little troubled, trying to figure out what to do.

But Bai Qian didn't need to think about what to do. The lion demon lay prostrate in place for a while, and before Bai Qian could figure out what to do, it had already scared itself half to death.

It has been confirmed that no matter what happens next, Bai Qian will definitely not let it go.

Although its idea is not wrong, it is a fact.

After cautiously glancing up at Bai Qian, he made up his mind.

The demonic energy flowed cautiously within its body. Taking advantage of Bai Qian's dazed state and lack of attention, the demonic energy within its body suddenly erupted, causing its reddish-brown fur to flutter automatically without wind.

Its massive body transformed into a wisp of red smoke, drifting straight out of the temple.

Bai Qian was still standing there in a daze when she saw the lion demon in front of her disappear from sight before she finally came to her senses.

But only after she realized what was happening, watching the red smoke quickly emerge from the main hall and drift away, she raised her hand, her white sleeves fluttering upwards before falling back down.

Perhaps crushing it would only take a finger, but after thinking for a while, he didn't do it. He just quietly watched the red smoke slowly disappear from his sight.

I don't know where it wants to go, but it doesn't really matter where it goes.

Following them was actually exactly what Bai Qian wanted to do. If she had just been thinking about how to ask these demons about what was behind them...

Why didn't they keep the monk who seemed smarter? There's no other reason than that he didn't deserve it.

Trying to reason with them is pointless; they're not worthy of it. What do you want to hear? Bai Qian didn't want to listen either. The lion demon was able to survive until the end simply because it was in a later position. But being last doesn't mean it shouldn't die; it just means it died a few minutes later.

With this thought in mind, Bai Qian lowered her sleeves and looked at the mess in the main hall, especially at the few broken corpses. Her dark eyes reflected the blood-stained Buddha statues.

The Buddha statue's face bore a kind and benevolent smile, but its faded gold body, mixed with the bloodstains, only gave off a chilling feeling, contrasting sharply with the corpses scattered on the ground.

Bai Qian stood there looking at the Buddha statues, which still wore the same kind smiles.

Bai Qian turned and walked towards the entrance of the main hall. The moment her boots stepped out of the hall, the hall collapsed with a roar, burying the smiling Buddha statues in the ruins.

Dust rose up from her feet, and Bai Qian looked up at the direction the lion demon had fled, about to follow that direction.

A dozen or so strange-looking monks had gathered around. They were all wearing brownish-yellow robes, but these robes were tattered, covered in dirt and blood.

Their appearances were incredibly varied; some had faces covered in tumors, while others were so old that just looking at them gave one goosebumps. Deformities like having six fingers or three eyes were actually quite normal among these monks.

They are not human, but demons.

Bai Qian remembered that when she came here before, besides the demons in the main hall, there were indeed these strangely-looking monks in the temple, who looked like demons and monsters, as if they were the product of two completely opposite auras colliding together.

When Bai Qian arrived, she ignored them, but now they were probably attracted by the noise of the collapsing main hall.

They have no sense of reason whatsoever. For them, the only things that matter are food and living people, just like now.

The moment they saw Bai Qian, their eyes blazed with lust, a pure emotion that yearned for fresh flesh and blood.

Bai Qian glanced at them, but that was all.

They didn't even bother to give them a second glance.

He walked toward the temple gate on his own.

These irrational demon monks, upon seeing Bai Qian's actions, could no longer suppress the evil desires stirring within them.

More than a dozen demonic monks rushed in from all directions, and the evil wind they stirred up made the girl's clothes flutter twice.

Bai Qian continued walking forward, and the demon monk who rushed the fastest had already arrived in front of her.

Then, in the next instant, its body leaned forward, its lower body separated from its upper body, breaking off at the waist. Its lower body collapsed, blood rolling uncontrollably on the ground, while its upper body slammed onto the antique wooden floor.

Its upper body was still somewhat responsive, and it supported its upper body with both hands as if it still wanted to get closer to Bai Qian. Bai Qian slowly walked past it, and its hands were less than a finger's width away from the girl's boots. It desperately tried to crawl forward.

Bai Qian tilted her head to look at the hand under the boot, her deep eyes reflecting the monk's blood-covered face.

Step on it.

Its struggling upper body went still, and at the same time, the dozen or so demonic monks that had gathered around it also stopped moving.

It was as if a strange white lotus flower was quietly blooming, starting from the fingers, palms, arms, chest, internal organs... spreading all over their bodies, as if by divine intervention, or like a flower blooming. They peeled off piece by piece, raindrops falling to the ground, but what spread was blood.

Layer upon layer, first the circle of demon monks closest to Bai Qian, then the middle, and finally the outermost layer, until finally, all that remained around Bai Qian was blood flowing all over the ground and bones floating on the blood.

The restless and malevolent air calmed down, leaving only the girl in white standing quietly in the blood.

Seemingly regaining her senses, she looked ahead again and continued walking towards the temple gate.

The boots were stained with blood, and footprints were left one after another on the ground.

We left the desolate temple.

---

The lion demon flew in mid-air, looking down at Taiheng City, but felt no sense of luck whatsoever.

After all, there is a living Yama chasing after them. If they harbor even the slightest bit of wishful thinking, then that will be their fate.

Escape from Taiheng City? Its thoughts now aligned with Buchen's; they feared they would be caught up as soon as they left the city.

As for finding the demon king hiding in Taiheng City? The problem is that it has no idea where he is hiding or how to contact him.

In this situation, there is only one option to survive.

Almost as soon as the idea came to mind, he took action and flew towards the nearest lotus altar.

Although they were at odds with the Lotus Life Sect, the Lotus Life Sect had extended olive branches to them several times. Looking at the entire Taiheng City, the Lotus Life Sect was probably the only one who could save them now.

Without the slightest hesitation, it landed beside the lotus altar. The Lotus Cult members guarding the area were initially taken aback when they saw the lion demon land, but then a smile appeared on their faces.

Just as he was about to say something, the lion demon hurriedly spoke.

"Quickly, summon the altar master of your altar over here." The altar master of the Lotus Altar is similar to himself, both at the third level of divine intent, but when facing that master, they are probably all the same.

But this is still the altar of the Lotus Life Sect. If we can borrow a little bit of that deity's power, we might be able to survive.

The Lotus Cult member was taken aback upon hearing this. Although the lion demon appeared extremely anxious, he simply approached without showing any emotion.

"I don't know, why are you looking for our altar master?"

The lion demon was furious when he saw him like this.

At a time like this, you're still trying to play these tricks on me.

"If he doesn't come to me, then I'll go to him. Otherwise, I'll come over later..."

Before it could finish speaking, it heard a soft sound, like the rustling of clothes or the sound of boots hitting the ground.

Its body froze on the spot, not even daring to turn around, for fear that it would see that white-clad figure if it did.

The Lotus Cult members beside them paid no attention and looked at the white-clad figure.

"Is this your friend?" he asked Bai Qian curiously.

The lion demon remained silent upon hearing this, but Bai Qian took the initiative to answer.

"Yes." Saying this, she slowly walked over.

The footsteps grew closer and closer to the lion demon's ears, and cold sweat dripped incessantly from its forehead. It dared not turn around at all, and in that instant, it turned into a wisp of red smoke, trying to escape again.

This time it didn't escape.

A clear sword light flashed across the sky, and it crashed to the ground again, its limbs and torso separated, rolling in disarray.

Bai Qian walked to its side, gently squatted down, hugged her knees covered with white socks, and looked at the lion demon that was now just a torso.

"If we are friends."

"Why are you running?" she asked.

Hopefully, I can get back to my previous state next month and get rid of this useless, snack-like state!

Love you all! Please keep reading! ヾ(?°?°?)ノ?

Volume 1: Chapter 238, Please Pay a Friend Fee

The Lian Sheng believers, who were just a little normal and curious about Bai Qian's origins, have now changed completely, looking panicked.

Although this bloody scene was already something they were used to, after all, if the Lotus Cultists were not used to such things, they would have long since become nourishment for the flesh lotus.

Whether it's skinning, dismembering, or removing a person's limbs, it's not a difficult thing for it to do.

However, all of this is based on people.

It had some impression of this lion demon. The altar master had been trying to contact the demons recently. According to her, if they could win the lion demon over to their side, the altar master's chances of choosing the Taiheng City headquarters would be much greater. She had always been dissatisfied with the current altar master.

The impression of this lion demon was that it was ferocious. It was said that it usually ate human organs as its food. Although it was about the same as them, it was certain that the lion demon was among the top small group even in the entire Taiheng City.

Then suddenly, right in front of him, his limbs disappeared.

It couldn't even quite figure out how it lost its limbs.

What terrified it more than any bloody scene was the bizarre and incomprehensible imagery.

Bai Qian hugged her fair legs and squatted down next to the lion demon. The lion demon was not dead yet; she had left him alive.

As for why it was spared...

There's no particular reason, but honestly, it might just be because it's so useless.

He had hoped it would lead him to the remaining demons of the Hundred Demon Pavilion, but instead it led him to this place.

However, it's clearly not the Hundred Demon Pavilion that has come to the Lotus Life Sect.
