Realizing what the tengu was about to do, Lu Qing's eyes narrowed:
"Stop right now, or you'll be annihilated!"
The tengu forcibly and rapidly absorbed the power of the moonlight into its demon core. When the demon core could no longer withstand the power, it would explode, generating enough force to level everything within a hundred miles.
Da'an Mountain is right on the edge of this city. Once the demon core explodes, the city's defensive formation will be impacted, and Liao Cheng can take the opportunity to escape.
This was all part of the Heavenly Dog's plan. If things didn't work out, it would sacrifice itself to make Liao Cheng leave.
"Tengu, stop right now!"
Liao Cheng shouted hurriedly, clearly not knowing at first that Tian Gou would do this.
"Liao Cheng, let's go!" Tian Gou shouted.
Lu Qing was truly surprised that the Heavenly Dog would pull this stunt, and was somewhat speechless.
"Tiangou, can you stop? I promise to let Liao Cheng go, I'll just remove the evil energy from his body, and I promise not to hand him over to the police, okay?"
Tengu: "Humans are fickle, I don't believe you!"
Lu Qing: "You can't condemn everyone just because Liao Yangping is fickle. Liao Cheng is also a human being, and he's Liao Yangping's own son. Is he fickle too?"
"Liao Cheng is different from you! He's even more different from Liao Yangping!" Tian Gou roared.
"Fine, I'll swear! I swear I absolutely won't arrest Liao Cheng!"
Lu Qing raised his hand as if to swear an oath, but this only made Tian Gou angrier.
"I don't believe it! Your human oaths never count. Liao Yangping once swore he would love his wife forever, but in the end he still killed her with his own hands!"
Lu Qing couldn't help but rub his forehead; Liao Yangping had really done a lot of harm to dogs.
Now we have no choice but to take a hard line!
Lu Qing squinted at the location of the Heavenly Dog Demon Core.
The only way now is to release these powers slowly, preventing them from exploding inside the Tengu Demon Core.
The Tengu is at the center of the power, and Lu Qing must ensure that his attack hits the mark on the first strike, otherwise there will be no possibility of a second strike.
Lu Qing pondered for a moment, then controlled the Nine Nether Lotus Fire to enter Liao Cheng's body and dispel the evil energy.
Liao Cheng suddenly let out a scream, attracting the attention of the Heavenly Dog.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Qing channeled all his strength and rushed towards the Heavenly Dog, pressing his two fingers together like a sword to stab at the location of the Heavenly Dog's demon core.
With a snap, a small hole was pierced in the demon core.
Lu Qing used his own body as a medium to slowly disperse the power within the demon core.
The powerful demonic energy surged through her meridians and internal organs, causing her to cry from the pain.
Just when Lu Qing felt like she was about to die from the pain, the power in the demon core suddenly slowed down, as if someone was helping her withstand the impact of the demonic power.
Lu Qing came to her senses and turned around to see that it was actually her master!
Her eyes suddenly brightened, but before she could call him "Master," she was flicked on the forehead.
"Silly girl, leave it to your teacher!"
Yu Hengzi smiled, escorted Lu Qing to a safe place, and then lightly released all his powerful demonic energy with a flick of his finger.
A strong gust of wind blew by, and all the trees in the mountain forest were bent out of shape.
Once the wind died down, the Tengu's demon core shattered.
It lay on the ground, too weak to get up.
Yu Hengzi came to Lu Qing and looked at her pale face, a trace of heartache flashing in his eyes.
Lu Qing didn't seem to care about the injury at all, and chuckled as she put her arm around Yu Hengzi's, asking:
"Master, what brings you here?"
"If I hadn't come, you would have suffered terribly today!"
Yu Hengzi reached out and tapped Lu Qing on the head, feeling both angry and heartbroken:
"You, don't you know your own limitations? You think you're some kind of ventilation duct?"
"Master, I had no other choice!"
Lu Qing sighed helplessly: "There are so many people within a hundred miles. If its demon core really explodes, how many people will die!"
Upon hearing this, a look of satisfaction flashed in Yu Hengzi's eyes.
"It's good to have the world in your heart, but you also need to protect yourself. Other people's lives matter, but your own life doesn't!"
Lu Qing: "Master, have you forgotten that there is a formation you planted in my body? I only dared to go up because I was sure I wouldn't die. Otherwise, I probably would have hesitated for a few more seconds."
Yu Hengzi couldn't help but chuckle: "Alright! Go and deal with those two!"
"What about you, Master? Are you leaving?" Lu Qing quickly grabbed Yu Hengzi's clothes.
Yu Hengzi laughed and said, "Master isn't leaving. We've finally made it down the mountain, how can we go back so soon!"
Lu Qing then smiled:
"Okay! Master, please wait for me, I'll go and deal with them right away."
After saying that, Lu Qing ran up to Liao Cheng and Tian Gou.
At this moment, the evil energy in Liao Cheng's body had been cleared away, and he hugged Tian Gou, crying uncontrollably.
"Hey! What are you crying for? It's not dead yet!"
Liao Cheng was taken aback when he heard Lu Qing's words.
Lu Qing gently tapped the celestial dog's forehead, and it woke up shortly afterward.
"It didn't die, but its demon core shattered, so now it's just an ordinary little dog."
“I told you, I won’t arrest you. Now that the evil has been cleared away, you should return to a normal life.”
Upon hearing this, Liao Cheng and Tian Gou both looked at her in surprise.
"You...you really won't arrest me?"
Lu Qing said helplessly, "I told you long ago, but you two are both so stubborn and just wouldn't believe me."
"Liao Yangping should have paid with his life for murder, but he was only sentenced to three years. You killed him to avenge your mother, and you were driven by evil spirits. Strictly speaking, it's not your fault, and it's understandable."
"Come back with me and explain everything. You'll be released in a month or two at most. Then you can start a new life with Tengu, okay?"
Liao Cheng couldn't help but burst into laughter through his tears, nodding repeatedly:
"Okay! Okay! I'll go back with you!"
Lu Qing immediately called Gu Xicheng and Jian Ming.
They were already on their way; they arrived less than ten minutes after the call.
Lu Qing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth beforehand and even greeted Yu Hengzi:
"Master, please don't tell Gu Xicheng that I'm injured. I don't want him to worry."
Yu Hengzi verbally agreed, but as soon as he saw Gu Xicheng, he began to interrogate him:
"Xiao Gu, how could you be such a good fiancé? How could you leave Qingqing to face the Heavenly Dog alone?"
"Do you know that if I had arrived even a moment later, Qingqing might have been seriously injured!"
Gu Xicheng's expression tightened, and he quickly asked Lu Qing:
"Are you injured? Where? Let me see!"
Lu Qing quickly said, "Gu Xicheng, I'm fine, don't listen to Master's nonsense!"
"Still trying to act tough!"
Yu Hengzi patted Lu Qing on the back, and Lu Qing immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.
Gu Xicheng was so frightened that his face turned pale. He quickly picked up Lu Qing and rushed to the hospital.
Lu Qing was speechless.
This blood was actually stagnant blood in her body; she could have absorbed it herself even without vomiting it out. But Yu Hengzi insisted on slapping it out for her.
This old man just loves to stir up trouble!
Lu Qing glared at Yu Hengzi, who then sent a cheerful telepathic message back:
"Little Qingqing, you don't understand! A man's guilt is a woman's best weapon. Don't thank your master too much!"
