Chapter 430 - 429: Unexpected Demon Power Fluctuation

Chapter 430: Chapter 429: Unexpected Demon Power Fluctuation

Lai Xin’s condition was far from good; if not for Lai Fan’s desperate support, beastification could have occurred long ago.

Just...

Lu Zixun could faintly feel the presence of the Demon Core within Lai Xin’s body.

It seemed, then, that the set of theories from Zhenfei had a certain theoretical feasibility.

After asking everyone to leave the room, Lu Zixun summoned the Spiritual Fire and began to burn away the Demon Ability User blood within Lai Xin’s body.

"Ah!"

With the start of the burning, Lai Xin let out extremely painful cries, continuously screaming.

Hearing this sound, Lai Fan’s heart clenched, and just when he was about to rush in, he found he couldn’t move his body.

Lai Fan, frozen by Bing Xue Ning’s Spiritual Energy, watched Lai Xin anxiously, his face filled with prayers.

After a long while, Lu Zixun withdrew his Spiritual Energy, his expression grave.

Indeed, he had succeeded in burning all the Demon Ability User blood within Lai Xin’s body to nothing, but due to the long-term invasion of that blood, her body had become extremely weak.

If she couldn’t become a Spiritual Ability User and nourish her body with Spiritual Energy, she likely wouldn’t live past the age of twenty.

For a young girl of just twelve, this was undeniably too cruel.

"It’s done."

Turning back to look at Lai Fan, Lu Zixun informed him of the potential danger.

Lai Fan’s fists clenched tightly, and he took a deep breath. "I understand, Lord Xun."

"Let’s go."

With a slight nod, Lu Zixun said nothing more and jumped onto Tang Tianyu’s shoulder, speaking indifferently.

Not many steps away, Lai Fan called out to Lu Zixun. "Lord Xun, I want to work for you."

Hearing this, Lu Zixun’s eyes narrowed.

If Lai Fan were to work for him, then perhaps he could infiltrate Zhenfei.

After all, with the resources provided by the Demon Country, advancing to S-level wouldn’t be difficult.

Spiritual Ability Users did not need to consume the Power of Faith to advance, and what the Demon Country had in abundance were the materials needed for Spiritual Ability Users to level up.

After weighing the situation for a moment, Lu Zixun gave Lai Fan a way to contact Shadow.

Walking onto the streets of the slums, Tang Tianyu’s expression was quite grim. "I didn’t expect Zhenfei to be doing such malicious things behind the scenes and even stretch their claws into Sha Fei’s territory."

For his part, Lu Zixun didn’t share Tang Tianyu’s righteous indignation, shaking his head, he said, "With the Three Prefectures setting a precedent, Zhenfei does not want another force to share the pie. It’s normal for them to act this way."

Everyone is no saint; it’s just a matter of who has a better bottom line.

But it is the high moral ground of the Demon Country that has made them such a target for Zhenfei.

Now a fatal problem has arisen: Zhenfei knows that the Demon Country would not strike at humans, no matter what.

That is the confidence they have to act recklessly.

Lu Zixun suddenly found it rather amusing.

Zhenfei, regarded by the Human Gathering Places as a guardian deity, didn’t really treat humans that seriously in private.

Yet the Demon Clan, which always harbored good intentions towards humans, was seen as dangerous and rampant. Indeed...

Humans only believe what they choose to believe.

The ingrained subjective bias towards the Demon Clan combined with the objective influence of Zhenfei, the Demon Clan’s goodwill towards humans, would sooner or later be exhausted.

This was tricky.

Lu Zixun, who wished for peaceful coexistence between humans and demons, now sincerely understood the kind of helpless mentality Yue Sichen must have felt.

"Sigh."

At this, Tang Tianyu let out a sigh and said no more, obviously agreeing with Lu Zixun’s views.

As he headed to the truck, Lu Zixun suddenly sensed the fluctuation of demon power in the air of the slums and called out to Tang Tianyu, "Wait, something’s not right."

Logically speaking, Zhenfei wouldn’t put all their eggs in one basket.

If they wanted to experiment with humans possibly becoming half-demons, it should have happened in a hidden place, so why was Lai Xin able to run out?

With Lai Fan’s abilities, taking Lai Xin away from Zhenfei was undoubtedly a pipe dream.

Yet he had done it, and it was very likely that Zhenfei had deliberately made it happen, with the purpose...

of possibly trying to disrupt the order of Zone 11.

After telling Tang Tianyu, Lu Zixun summoned the Night Evil Sword and rushed towards the source of the demon power fluctuation.

The humans protected by Zhenfei believed eight out of ten rumors targeting the Demon Country.

But Sha Fei maintained a neutral attitude.

If such a situation arose within Sha Fei, it would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the Demon Country,

and then they would indeed find themselves utterly isolated.

Realizing that Zhenfei had intentionally let Lai Xin go, Lu Zixun arrived outside the room where the power fluctuation had occurred.

However, when Lu Zixun got there, the presence strangely disappeared.

Sniffing slightly, Lu Zixun furrowed his brows; a faint scent of blood permeated the area, leading him on like an invisible thread.

This particular room in the slums was exceptionally secluded; one had to delve deep into the alley to see it.

As the scent of blood grew stronger, Lu Zixun crouched in front of a room door.

The bloody smell was coming from inside.

The door of the room was slightly ajar, and Lu Zixun held his breath as he slipped inside.

A cat’s night vision is always strong, but at that moment, Lu Zixun wished he couldn’t see the scene in the darkness.

The walls were covered in red and white—the red was naturally blood.

The white... was brain matter.

On the floor, one could see various limbs; if you looked closely, you’d even see tooth marks on them.

Blood had soaked into the ground such that Lu Zixun had nowhere to plant his feet.

"Crunch, crunch."

Chewing sounds came intermittently from deep inside the room, and considering the state of the room, Lu Zixun felt nauseated.

Suppressing the revulsion rising within him, Lu Zixun moved deeper into the room.

He could see a person with disheveled hair and dirty clothes crouching in a corner.

With a fair arm held in their hands, they continuously chewed, occasionally spitting out a bone or two.

"Die!"

The Night Evil Sword, hidden in the dark, burst forth with fierce Sword Qi as Lu Zixun infused it with his Spiritual Energy, slashing viciously towards the neck of the person.

"Ding—Teasing value from Shiqian detected: +24000."

"Damn."

Lu Zixun, who was on his way to make the kill, had not expected the Shiqian in front of him to possess J-level strength.

Shiqian raised a hand and blocked Lu Zixun’s Sword Qi with just their fingernails, then turned to look at Lu Zixun with a fierce smirk.

Clutching his fist tightly, "Ring Ghost Technique: Inversion."

The entire room flipped in an instant, and Lu Zixun, reeling as if the world were spinning, had to utilize Magnetic Field Control to stabilize himself.

Shiqian was already in front of Lu Zixun, their claws slashing viciously towards his chest.

The Night Evil Sword was drawn across to block Shiqian’s long claws, and as sparks flew, Lu Zixun activated the Heavenly Eye to investigate Shiqian’s intel.

Before Lu Zixun could check the Heavenly Eye’s alert, Shiqian had already kicked him hard in the chest.
