Chapter 351: Chapter 349 Human Demon Embryo

In the dim room, a sinister figure lay hunched over the table, staring at the dozen dolls on it.

The round dolls were painted with facial features and other traits, and each had a name written on its belly. If one looked closely, one could see that one of the dolls represented Wang Zixuan.

"Hatch quickly, my darlings, I’ve waited too long already!"

The voice spoke in a sickening tone, unable to hide its anticipation—it had been lurking in this city for over three years for these dolls!

"Breeding Demon, your room is still so dark and filthy. This isn’t the Abyss, and making it look like this is too ominous."

A disgusted voice cut through as a man pushed open the door and entered. Upon entering, he covered his nose, and a tuft of flame lit on his tail, illuminating the room thoroughly.

Only then was the odd figure’s form clarified; it was a monster with a swollen, large belly and limbs as thin as dead branches, with two rows of black horns growing from its head to the tip of its tail.

The man who entered wore a pure white suit, his skin slightly flushed, two crimson horns on his head, and black and red hair tied in a ponytail, his fiery tail flicking actively.

If one overlooked the monstrous traits on him, he was exceptionally handsome.

"Damn Little Flame Demon, extinguish your flame. These little treasures are very sensitive to temperature and light!"

The Breeding Demon said irritably. It used to be alone in this place, only needing to breed Human Demon Embryos. It could do what it wanted at other times.

But a few months ago, these overlords, who had been causing trouble in other cities, had returned to Lugang City for unknown reasons and made it their stronghold. It went from living leisurely to being restricted everywhere.

The man known as Little Flame Demon extinguished the flame on his tail, then wrapped his long tail around the Breeding Demon’s neck, his sharp teeth bared as he stared fixedly, significantly raising the room’s temperature.

"Show some respect, mongrel. I could kill you at any time!"

"Cough, cough. If anything goes wrong with these eggs, who do you think the Faceless Demon Lord will punish?"

"In the Abyss, lowly breeds like me are everywhere, but here, I am more important than you, a noble Flame Demon."

The Breeding Demon struggled, knowing its words would only infuriate the Little Flame Demon, but it was not afraid, for it was indeed more important here than the Flame Demon, as it had said.

For this lower-class demon, speaking to the Flame Demon in this manner was more gratifying than anything, and once all the Human Demon Embryos hatched, it would no longer need to fear the Little Flame Demon.

Little Flame Demon glanced at those dolls, spat a magma-like spit, and reluctantly let go of the Breeding Demon.

All these dozens of Human Demon Embryos were close to hatching, and any mishap now would certainly lead to punishment.

He was thinking about another way to punish the Breeding Demon when he heard a crack. A Human Demon Embryo moved!

Little Flame Demon’s heart clenched suddenly. Could it be that the Human Demon Embryo had failed to hatch because of the high temperature he had just released?

He peered at the slightly moving doll, which cracked open like an eggshell, releasing stinking, blood-streaked egg white and yolk, leaving only a twitching eyeball inside.

The Breeding Demon laughed maniacally, crawled over to the eyeball, picked it up, and indulged in swallowing it.

Then its body twisted irregularly, and after it stopped, an eye had appeared on its forehead!

The Breeding Demon, looking pleased, glanced at Little Flame Demon and said, "Now the first Human Demon Embryo has hatched. For the next while, let no one disturb me!"

The Little Flame Demon fell silent for a while, then retreated from the Breeding Room. The Human Demon Embryo began to incubate. During this period, the Breeding Demon became the most important demon at this stronghold.

Moreover, the Little Flame Demon could sense that after swallowing that eyeball, the strength of the Breeding Demon had increased. Once all sixteen Human Demon Embryos hatched, its strength would definitely not be weaker than its own, it might even be stronger!

The Little Flame Demon watched the Breeding Demon crouched next to the desk, gazing at those puppets with an intoxicated look.

"Hatch quickly, my precious ones, let more of our kind descend upon this unexploited world, to herd the humans for the great Overlord, to harvest the suitable souls!"

In the midst of breathing, a few more puppets began to show tiny cracks, including the one representing Wang Zixuan.

The gaze of the Breeding Demon became even more enraptured.

...

Wang Zixuan coldly watched his father and mother argue, a scene he had grown tired of.

From that day three years ago, he had changed, and he was well aware of that.

If he wanted, he could easily tear his parents apart without anyone noticing.

He had the capability, and the impulse had always been there, as the delicious flesh and blood that moved around him daily was very enticing.

But he hadn’t done so because he still retained his memories and personality, and he knew they were his parents, so they needed to stay alive until his transformation.

It was also because his personality remained within him that he hadn’t drawn the attention of the Hunters Association over these three years.

But recently, his strength seemed to be getting stronger, and his personality more blurred, like that time Yu Hui wiped his mouth, and he wanted to bite off her hand, or let insects crawl all over her body!

This thought frightened him, not because he feared harming his parents, but because he felt his own existence was growing weaker, as if something was about to replace him...

The fear only lasted a moment before he pushed it to the back of his mind, his human emotions had long been weak to a certain extent.

Or rather, whenever he experienced intense emotions, they would vanish without a trace, keeping him perpetually calm.

Today, Wang Junyi was looking for someone to cure him again, which Wang Zixuan found somewhat amusing since he knew very well that this was not a sickness, but a gradual transformation into something else.

A being superior to humans.

But before the complete transformation, he had to abide by the rules of the human world if he wanted to survive, so he continued to endure.

Each time he watched those foolish beings earnestly persuading him not to get angry with his parents, deep down he wanted to silence those folks forever.

Suddenly, Wang Zixuan thought he heard the sound of something shattering, followed by an intense pain in his mind that made his consciousness increasingly blurry.

He knew that something was going to disappear forever from within him...

And as those things vanished, another urge flooded his mind.

It was... hunger!
