Qi Yu was pushed and fell to the ground, the Compassionate Sword slipped from her hand and fell behind the demon.
She turned her head in disbelief and met An Rong'er's malicious gaze.
"Eat her if you want! A disgusting monster and a piece of trash with five elemental roots are a perfect match!"
An Rong'er, who should have immediately called for help, kicked Qi Yu again and turned to run away.
The monster seemed amused by this betrayal, letting out a mocking "heh heh" laugh and stretching out its crimson hands.
An invisible force controlled Qi Yu, causing her to float uncontrollably in the air. She felt her energy being continuously drained away, and unbearable pain followed one after another.
Countless negative emotions in life, such as greed, anger, ignorance, love, hate, and evil desires, arise in the mind.
Despite being exceptionally talented, he was treated as a useless person.
He was trying to save someone, but was betrayed by the person he was trying to save.
In that world, only her aunt was truly kind to her. Was it worth it to go to such lengths to save that world?
Just as she was about to be overwhelmed by these extreme emotions, a holy light spread out from her, driving away all the negative emotions.
[A sharp decline in the host's vitality has been detected; the "Holy Mother Aura" has automatically activated.]
The monster recoiled as if burned, yet it couldn't help but want to get even closer to the light source.
With the monster's control loosened, Qi Yu, who had regained consciousness, seized the opportunity to roll over, pick up the Compassion Sword, and slashed it, piercing the monster's chest.
The demon desperately tried to pull the sword out of its chest, yet it couldn't resist getting closer to Qi Yu. The Merciful Sword penetrated deeper and deeper, piercing the demon through, but it refused to give up.
"Heh..."
Bright red blood gushed continuously from the wounds on its mouth and chest, while its eerie purple eyes reflected the holy halo, revealing a mixture of ignorance and longing.
Qi Yu drew his sword, and the demon fell backward, its purple eyes gradually turning black, until it fell silent.
[Congratulations on successfully completing the "Do a Good Deed Every Day" task! Your actions saved a vulnerable woman from being harmed. You are awarded 50 points as a token of your appreciation!]
[Host detected murdering another person, merit -1, host will be punished. System punishment: cannot use the Holy Mother Aura to heal.]
A familiar, sharp pain struck, and Qi Yu collapsed to the ground, the Compassionate Sword falling several meters away.
How can exorcising demons be defined as "murder"? Are demons even human?! Qi Yu endured the pain and cursed the unscrupulous system.
As if fighting against her, the pain became more and more intense. Qi Yu trembled uncontrollably, barely breathing, and was almost on the verge of death.
It felt like being thrown into a boiling oil pot, or like climbing a mountain of knives and wading through a sea of fire; an indescribable pain descended upon me.
She curled up, rolling on the ground in agony. The dirty dust stained her blue clothes black. She clenched her teeth, and large tears rolled down her closed eyes. She felt as if her brain had been thrown into a washing machine and churned back and forth. Her body felt as heavy as if it weighed a thousand pounds, and her consciousness was being ripped from her body.
Finally, her body twitched twice and then stopped moving completely.
...
"Clap clap clap"—three rhythmic claps suddenly rang out in the quiet alley.
"It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to you effortlessly."
One hand picked up the Sword of Compassion from the ground and lovingly stroked the bloodstains on it.
