I killed her? Now?
Yes! Before she commits any evil, sir, you should kill her quickly; it would be a great act of merit.
"But you also said that she hadn't done anything wrong yet, and I killed her. Are you sure that's a great act of merit? Wasn't she an innocent person who hadn't done anything wrong? Considering her current actions, if someone had tortured and killed my sister's body and extracted her sacred bones, my methods of revenge wouldn't have been any gentler. So, am I also a demon child?"
[How can this be compared? How can she be worthy of being compared to adults!]
She's a demon, does that mean she deserves to die?
"If she doesn't die, are we supposed to die?"
"But just because she might do evil in the future, I have to kill her now. Isn't that a strange reason? I might kill someone in the future, right? Besides, who doesn't kill on the path of cultivation?"
Fang Ruotang felt that this logic was not quite right.
Stand still and argue with the small mirror.
All six of them, including Gu Yanjin, could hear it.
The person at the center of the discussion glanced at them, and seeing that they had no intention of stopping her, ignored them and turned back to continue the cruel torture of slowly slicing the woman on the ground.
"Keep shouting!"
"Help! Help me!"
The woman weakly called out to a small bell-like magical artifact, her voice echoing in waves.
Fang Ruotang and her group then understood why their cries for help could travel so far.
Whom is she trying to lure here?
The woman who obtained her sister's sacred bone was the junior sister of the woman on the ground.
Fang Ruotang: ...
what to do?
She was even more convinced that there was no problem with the demon.
Is her thinking not quite right either?
Look, are her parents dead?
[He's not dead, but he's nearing his end. He's trapped in the Nine Nether Blood Sea, where almost everyone who goes there dies. It's formed from the malevolent energy of the primordial beginnings of heaven and earth, and it has never dried up. Legend has it that it's the burial ground for primordial demons.]
[Demon?]
"My lord, you mustn't! If the demon child gains power there, countless people in this world will die."
Why did her parents go there?
[Rumor has it that there are treasures there that can suppress demonic energy. The couple wanted to obtain these treasures to suppress the demonic energy within their daughter, not wanting her to be confined to a small, square room for the rest of her life.]
[Tsk!]
Fang Ruotang was somewhat moved.
"If I go there, might I be able to rescue them?"
"My lord, why?"
[For no particular reason, I just miss my parents.]
Little Mirror: ...
Gu Yanjin and the other six looked at Fang Ruotang with pity.
Suddenly I understood why she had been rambling on and on.
Fang Ruotang was physically weak and intellectually deficient since childhood. In the mortal world, wasn't he a demon child, the kind of child whose parents would abandon at birth?
But the people in the Prime Minister's residence did not abandon her and took good care of her as she grew up.
Si's parents did not abandon this troublesome child and secretly raised her to adulthood, even though their actions seemed selfish to others.
After all, they were born with demonic bodies, and once they grow up, there will surely be rivers of blood in the future. But since they are on different sides, it's hard to say who is right and who is wrong.
"Alright! Let's go save the sect disciples first."
Fang Ruotang spoke up and had the little mirror point the way.
As Fang Ruotang passed by Mo Tong, she glanced at her. Mo Tong coldly raised her eyes, which were devoid of any light or humanity. Her eyes were filled with killing intent and bloodlust, and she even seemed to find excitement in torturing and killing people.
Fang Ruotang frowned but said nothing.
They made their way to the lair of the human-faced demon spider and saw disciples bound to the spider silk, unable to move. Two disciples even had their heads stuck to the spider silk and could not move. Only their eyes could move, and they looked like they were waiting to die. But when they saw Fang Ruotang and her group, their eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sect Master, Sect Master, save me! I am Qingyu, a disciple of the Third Elder. Please, Sect Master, save me!"
"Stop yelling. I only entered the cave to save you because I sensed you were in danger. How did you end up in such a terrible state?"
"Greetings, Sect Master. This disciple is Fuyu, also a disciple of the Third Elder." The man who spoke was more reserved than his senior brother beside him.
Moreover, when her master was mentioned, she seemed a little embarrassed, as if she felt she had disgraced her master and that it was inappropriate to mention her name at this time.
However, since the Sword Pavilion had just joined the Heavenly One Sect, if they didn't announce their master's name, the sect leader probably wouldn't even know who they were.
"When the two disciples entered the secret realm, they happened to land in the same place. After receiving the message from our senior brother to gather, we rushed to his place. Unexpectedly, we had terrible luck along the way. We encountered either demonic plants or monsters, and they were all at a level that the two disciples were struggling to deal with. While dodging the poisonous frogs in the swamp, we saw a fellow Daoist who was deeply trapped in it. We wanted to help her out of the swamp with good intentions, but we did not expect that she was not human at all, but a human-faced demonic spider."
Qingyu wore a bitter expression, but kept talking.
He had been living under the shadow of death for a long time, and now that he knew he didn't have to die, his mouth was out of control and he couldn't stop talking.
"Does it really look like a human?" Fang Ruotang entered the cave but had not yet seen the human-faced demon spider.
I initially thought it would be disgusting, but now I'm actually a little curious about it.
"They look incredibly similar. If you hide the spider's body and only look at its upper body, it's just like a human. Whether it's male or female, they look exactly like humans."
Fang Ruotang listened with a grimace.
While they were talking, Da Mei had already burned the spider silk with fire and rescued the two people. There were three other people locked up with them.
The three were clearly in much worse condition than the disciples of Tianyi Sect. They were already unconscious when they arrived and have not yet woken up.
“When we arrived, these three were already unconscious. We don’t know which sect they belonged to, but judging from their appearance, they had been locked up for a long time.”
"Um!"
Fang Ruotang gave two disciples pills to restore their energy, and then also revived three other disciples.
Two women and one man, when they woke up, their eyes were filled with panic.
Upon seeing the group of normal cultivators in front of him, he hurriedly stood up from the ground.
"Thank you for saving us, fellow Daoist. May I ask which sect you belong to? Once we leave the secret realm, we will definitely report to our sect and repay you handsomely."
"The Sect Master of Tianyi Sect is Fang Ruotang."
Fang Ruotang always introduces herself by name, without waiting for others to give her a formal introduction.
Upon hearing that he was the leader of a sect, the three disciples who had been rescued immediately changed their tune.
"Thank you for saving me, senior."
"Thank you, Sect Master Fang."
It conveys a similar meaning, but with a greater sense of respect.
"Sect Master Fang, I have a favor to ask, and I hope you will lend a hand." One of the female cultivators suddenly knelt on the ground and begged for help.
Gu Yanjin and the other five immediately frowned.
Huo Zhige acted as a mouthpiece for the other five, and he said impatiently, "Shut up and don't make any requests you shouldn't make. We have no obligation to you."
Without even thinking, it's obvious that some fellow disciples were eaten, and they need to help them take revenge.
