Mo Ke didn't eat the two human traffickers on the spot, not because he didn't want to, but because Wu You felt that eating them in such a bloody scene would be mistaken for a murder.
In Journey to the West, there is a scene where a demon sweeps away Tang Sanzang with a gust of wind.
Although the methods used by Moke are slightly different now, they are indeed quite similar.
Each of its two front paws was hooked onto the clothes of a human trafficker, and a gust of wind was "lifting" them from below.
At an even faster speed than when it went there, Mo Ke quickly landed at the foot of the mountain tree.
Gao Rufeng and his accomplices were now truly awake and huddled together in fear.
They had no idea where they were.
Even though it was nighttime and there were hardly any stars around, strangely enough, the surroundings were quite visible.
Besides the lush and diverse vegetation all around, the most breathtaking sight is undoubtedly the mountain range behind us.
I realized that this was not the kind of scenery that could be found around Qiantang, and it shouldn't even be considered a normal beautiful scene in the human world.
But at this moment, my heart was filled with fear, and I was unable to appreciate the wonders around me.
The accomplice immediately knelt down in front of Qiongqi.
"Great Demon Lord, I have committed countless evil deeds, I am utterly wicked, I was wrong, please give me a chance to repent..."
Gao Rufeng also wanted to beg for mercy, but his heart and lips were trembling so badly that he admired his accomplice for being able to speak so coherently and clearly in this situation.
His accomplice banged his head repeatedly on the stone on the ground.
I had just raised my head and hadn't even had a chance to see how the demon in front of me would react when everything went black and I lost consciousness.
"Ah~~~ Ah~~~" Gao Rufeng screamed.
Mo Ke chewed his food, making a "crunching" sound.
The remaining body of the accomplice was gushing blood from its neck, like a small fire hydrant that had been smashed open.
Not a single red raindrop fell to the ground; they all spun in the air and flew into the monster's mouth.
After the blood stopped flowing, Mo Ke smacked his lips and then swallowed the rest of the corpse in a few bites, without even spitting out the clothes, shoes, or other odds and ends.
Wu You witnessed the entire process and, strangely enough, felt no discomfort whatsoever. He even wondered if the filth in the person's stomach had been digested by the demon.
Gao Rufeng received no special treatment and soon followed in the footsteps of his accomplices amidst screams.
Wu You had initially considered asking the police for some clues, but after thinking about it again, she decided it was better not to do it.
With Gao Rufeng's lost cell phone and van, the police should be able to find some clues.
...
After swallowing the last bite, Mo Ke was somewhat unsatisfied, but he did not move again.
The already extremely thick black smoke that had surrounded Qiongqi began to seep into its body through its eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and even its fur.
Of course, it wasn't just black smoke; it also contained many small, free-floating specks of light that contained unknown energy.
Hint: The critically endangered beast, Qiongqi Moke, is about to undergo a transformation into a mortal being, and will begin to be tempered by attracting natural energy.
"Is the evolution finally about to begin?" Wu You wondered to himself.
Unlike the Azure Dragon and the Mountain Tree, Qiongqi's body did not grow larger; it remained about the same size as a rhinoceros.
However, it became more solid, and although the color was still black, it began to become deeper.
In observation mode.
Wu You is the same as Mo Ke.
They "heard" faint sounds coming along with the black smoke and dust, including laughter and crying.
This relatively peaceful process of transformation gave Wu You a very peculiar experience.
Emotions and desires—that's a magical realm.
The demon can sense and absorb these, and can even influence some of them.
...
A peaceful beginning, a peaceful end; the demon swings on, adapting to its new self.
System notification: Qiongqi Moke has successfully completed his transformation into a mortal.

...
Two days later.
"The city recently launched a joint operation with police from Xiangnan, Bonchuan and other places to crack down on a major domestic human trafficking gang."
"The gang members are spread across nine provinces in China and have been involved in trafficking women and children for many years. So far, a total of 27 key suspects have been arrested, and two are still at large."
"The cracking of this case has resulted in the rescue of 43 abducted children and 19 abducted women, and has also identified multiple locations where abductions occurred."
"This operation dealt a powerful blow to criminals engaged in human trafficking in China."
...
"News program compilation and reporting."
The TV was showing news from Qiantang City, and Wu You watched it with his father as they passed by.
"Serves them right! Those damned human traffickers should all be sent to jail to rot in jail."
Wu Jianguo said with satisfaction.
But deep down he knew that those people couldn't possibly stay in jail for long; even the ringleader would only get five years or more at most.
...
Just then, Wu You's phone rang. The caller ID showed it was Zhu Xiaoyuan, the administrator of Zhuchong.
It seems the results of the first round of selection are in.
I went into the hallway to answer the phone.
"Hello, Beastman... is this Mr. Wu?"
"Hello Mr. Zhu, this is Wu You. Have the results of the selection been announced?"
"Yes, Mr. Wu, we have selected five options and sent them to your email. You can then choose the best option."
"Okay, I will go see it, thank you."
Wu You hung up the phone, opened the mobile app, and found that there were indeed 5 huge emails in her QQ mailbox.
I went upstairs and turned on my computer.
Select to download attachment.
Even with fiber optic cable, it took almost an hour to download this nearly 5GB compressed file.
After downloading all the games, Wu You closed the mobile game and then unzipped each one.
I glanced through it.
Of course, based on his architectural knowledge, he only looked at the renderings once.
All five are beautiful, and it's difficult to rank them.
Could it be that they are really going to muster troops and generals?
Just as I was thinking that, I suddenly noticed the designer's signature on one of the designs.
"Nickname, Shishishi? Hu Lei?"
I remember, he was the first person to submit a proposal.
How can the quality be so good even with such fast shipping?
This young man is good, he's the one.
I dialed Zhu Xiaoyuan's number directly, and it was answered after two rings.
"Hey Mr. Zhu, I've made my choice, the metal and wood design. Yes, yes, I'm sure. I'll announce the results in the post later."
"But Mr. Wu, less than an hour has passed, how could it be so fast?"
"That's right, let's do it this way."
Wu You hung up the phone immediately.
Zhu Xiaoyuan, on the other side, was feeling a bit overwhelmed.
