There was a lamp on at the door of the farmer's house and a white banner was hung at the door. Hua Yanyue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then walked in. Lu Yiming hurriedly followed.
When we arrived at the farmer's house, we passed the courtyard and came to the main hall. We saw a coffin in the hall with candles lit. A woman in mourning clothes was kneeling on the ground in front of the coffin, burning paper money.
"Are you here to mourn? The incense is over there, take it yourself." The woman spoke softly, her voice hoarse, as if she had been crying for a long time.
Hua Yanyue glanced at the woman, walked up to her, took a stick of incense, lit it, bowed, and put it in the incense burner.
Lu Yiming also stepped forward, offered incense, and then stood next to Hua Yanyue.
"May I ask, who is the deceased? Why is this village so deserted?" Hua Yanyue asked, her eyes dim and unclear.
The woman burned paper money and didn't speak for a while. After a long time, she finally spoke, "It's my husband who passed away. The village is deserted because everyone is dead."
"They're all dead?" Lu Yiming said in shock, and asked hurriedly, "Why are they all dead?"
There are at least a hundred people in this village. How could they all die?
"Yes, they are all dead." The woman said in a strange voice, "Because I killed them all~"
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and saw that the face was not a human face at all, but a black fox head. The fox's eyes were glowing red, fierce and weird. It had a human body but a fox's head.
Lu Yiming was frightened by her appearance. He immediately drew his sword and pointed it at her with a cold expression, "You are the demonized fox. Why did you kill the people in the village? Why did you harm those sect disciples?"
"Hahaha..." The fox demon laughed loudly. From the fox's head, the laughter sounded particularly strange. "Why? You ask me why?"
"You disciples of the immortal sect, you keep saying you are serving the people and are righteous! But you are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites, you kill any monster you see, regardless of whether it is good or bad!"
"I have clearly never harmed anyone. I only want to practice cultivation and become an immortal! But you, the immortals, won't let me go and keep chasing me! You have seriously injured me and ruined my hundred years of cultivation!" Its voice was sharp and full of anger.
"Only my husband... My husband is a good man. He brought me home and healed my injuries. Even though he knew I was a demon, he never despised me and was very kind to me. We spent every day together and developed a friendship. I have already planned to spend the rest of my life with my husband, and then I will let him go." The words were full of sadness and grief, and the voice was hoarse and choked.
"But...but later...I accidentally ran into those sect disciples, and they insisted that I was a harmful monster. They kept saying they wanted to eliminate demons and uphold justice, and they wanted to kill me without any reason! Everyone in the village knew I was a fox demon."
"They want to burn me to death! My husband...he...he died in the fire trying to save me, and not even a body was left!" it screamed, its words filled with anger and pain.
"It's all your fault! You forced me to do this. You forced me to become a demon, forced me to kill people. I didn't want to do this... I didn't want to do this... I just wanted to spend the rest of my life with my husband. Why did you force me to do this?"
The fox demon was crying and laughing, looking crazy.
"So you killed everyone in the village! And those sect disciples, right?" Lu Yiming questioned.
"That's right! If it weren't for those disciples who insisted on chasing me! If it weren't for those ignorant villagers who insisted on burning me to death! How could my husband die! What if I killed them? They deserved to die!"
The fox demon shouted back, the black evil spirit and red demonic spirit around him blending into one, his eyes filled with terrifying red light.
"Not just them! Today I want you to leave your lives here too! Come and pay tribute to my husband's spirit in heaven!"
"All of you, the immortal sect members, deserve to die!"
After the fox demon finished speaking, its ten fingers transformed into fox claws, powerful energy burst out from its hands, and it rushed towards Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming hurriedly raised his sword to resist, and the two soon entangled in a fight. After a while, the fight spread from the lobby to the yard.
In the courtyard, the two people were fighting so fast that their figures could not be seen clearly.
Hua Yanyue stood inside the door, quietly watching the man and the demon fighting in the yard, without taking any action.
He shrugged his nose, turned around, and his eyes casually fell on a place in the house. He said in a cold voice, "Come out."
"Tsk~ You're still so perceptive. You spotted me right after you arrived."
The voice of the Lust Demon came with a smile. He appeared out of thin air, and his demonic energy transformed into a chair, sitting on it elegantly.
"Heh... You went to so much trouble to do all this, wasn't it just to seduce me? Is it difficult to find you?" Hua Yanyue looked up at him, curled her lips and smiled, her tone casual.
When the Devil heard this, his face changed, his figure swayed, and he almost fell from mid-air.
He sat up straight, unable to maintain his elegant posture, and hurriedly shouted, "Hey, hey, hey! Don't talk nonsense! What seduction! What seduction?! I'm very normal, I don't like men!"
Hua Yanyue folded her arms across her chest, leaning against the door frame behind her. She looked at him with a half-smile and said lazily, "Oh~ seduce me out, or should I say...seduce me into becoming possessed? Sorry, I didn't finish my sentence."
The lust demon breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Could you please stop panting when you speak?
Can you finish it in one go?
My thousand years of innocence was almost ruined. If word gets out and those demons really think I like men, will my reputation as one of the Four Demon Lords still be in jeopardy?
"How do you know it was me?"
The lust demon straightened his clothes, propped up his chin and looked at him, then spoke curiously.
"Is it difficult to detect?" Hua Yanyue taunted, a strange smile in her eyes. "After you knew about this fox demon, you bewitched it and made it become a demon. It killed those disciples at the sect meeting. Lu Yichan happened to see it and mistakenly thought I killed them. She then pointed out my demon identity. Wasn't this your plan?"
