Chapter 478: Demon Realm (3)
There was singing and dancing all around the Jiaolong tribe's altar, laughter and joy everywhere, creating a harmonious and grand scene.
The dragons surrounding them had either already transformed or not yet, and there were even cubs that were halfway transformed.
There was a large stone pot on the altar, and the aroma of meat wafted from the pot.
The red fox was nestling in the grass, holding the breath-hiding jade given by the elders of the tribe. The little ghost squatted beside it, making sure it could return to the fox tribe safely.
As for the other red-eyed companion...
The little ghost believed from the bottom of his heart that as long as she didn't kill any of his own people, he would do anything.
The red-eyed companion sat on the tree with an expressionless face, and his hair, which had gradually turned black, began to turn red and purple again.
A sixth-rank demon beast appeared out of thin air on the steps of the altar and said with a smile, "The clan leader said that this thigh meat can be used to make soup, and all the demons in the clan can share it!"
There were bursts of cheers from below.
Tao Zi's eyes were so bloodshot that people dared not look directly at him, and the sword in his hand became sharper and sharper.
The red fox below raised its head and made a gesture, indicating that this was not the monster that had attacked.
But for Tao Zi now, it is not that important.
Perhaps because of the red fox's gesture, the demon beast noticed them. Its expression became fierce and it shouted, "Who's there? Get out!"
Tao Zi jumped down from the tree, twirling the sword in her hand. She smiled and said, "Who chopped off the hands and feet? Where is his arm?"
The sixth-level monster didn't react: "What?"
She didn't want to repeat the question again, so she just chopped it off.
At this moment, all the rationality in her eyes had disappeared, and all she wanted in her mind was to kill all the monsters present.
The little ghost counted them and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The most powerful of these monsters was only level six, which was equivalent to a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage. Even if the bonuses of blood and flesh were taken into account, it was at most the early stage of the Out-of-Body stage, which was not a big problem.
At this time, the red fox pointed at Tao Zi and was about to scream. Fortunately, the little ghost appeared in front of it in time, forced it to shut up with his eyes, and lowered his voice and said, "Don't cause trouble."
The red fox said in a trembling voice, "But...but she killed the cubs!"
The little ghost glanced back, then turned his head and said, "What would you do if a group of people cooked your brother's thigh and ate it?"
The red fox said without hesitation: "Kill them all."
The little ghost nodded in agreement: "Yes, kill them all."
"But they are cubs. They are still small."
The little ghost curled his lips and said, "So what if I'm small? Others are cruel to your relatives, and you still worry about this and that. Saint... No, holy beast? You should know that they are preparing to share the flesh of Junior Brother Tao Zi. Do you still expect Tao Zi to be magnanimous and kind and forgive them?"
“But they didn’t do it.”
"But it was their elders who did it, and they were happily sharing the food. My sacred beasts, you said they were still young, but Zhao Xue isn't even thirty yet. So, he's the most innocent one. You let Tao Zi feel sorry for the young beasts, so who will feel sorry for Zhao Xue?"
The red fox moved his lips and stopped talking, but there was still reluctance in his eyes.
The little ghost looked at him and sighed secretly. He was only twelve years old, which was equivalent to one year old for an ordinary mortal among monsters. It was normal that he had not seen the world.
Tao Zi's body was stained with countless blood. She looked at the monsters fleeing around her. It was too late to catch them one by one, so she killed whoever she saw.
Those sixth-level monsters were almost going crazy. They rushed forward to intercept Tao Zi while protecting the cubs and escaping.
She didn't care who she killed, she would just deal with any demon that came her way.
No one would have thought that Tao Zi, who had reached the great perfection of Nascent Soul, could defeat several sixth-level monsters.
In just a quarter of an hour, only one seriously injured sixth-level monster survived.
Just when Tao Zi was about to kill it, a young beast that had not yet transformed suddenly appeared, opened its arms and firmly protected the sixth-level monster.
She was stunned for a moment, but did not hesitate. She continued to chop down with the sword, but was blocked by a layer of barrier.
Looking closely, a red fox appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of the cub, holding a life-saving magic weapon given to it by the elders of the fox clan.
The red fox said in a trembling voice, "It knows nothing. Can you let it go?"
Tao Zi didn't even frown, and chopped straight down, not even letting the red fox go.
The little ghost's face changed drastically, and he stepped forward to stop her, but unexpectedly she dealt with him as well.
This man has really lost his mind.
The little ghost wanted to summon the ghost army to help, but he couldn't. After blocking a few attacks, his body began to become illusory.
Just when the red fox's life was hanging by a thread, two sharp shouts rang out:
"Tao Zi!"
"Yue Qiran!"
She paused.
At this moment, the little fox rushed over to block the red fox, and Jiu Qingling also appeared in front of her.
Tao Zi was in a trance for a moment. Jiu Qingling looked at her state and immediately understood. She said, "Zhao Xue is still alive. He wouldn't want you to become like this."
She gripped the sword tightly, and gradually forced herself to regain her sanity.
Seeing her gradually calm down, the demons and ghosts finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the red fox suddenly groaned, its eyes moved downward, and a bloody claw appeared on its abdomen.
Seeing that it was not dead, the young dragon gritted its teeth and wanted to stab it again, but the little fox was faster than it.
The red fox covered his abdomen and looked at the corpse on the ground, confused: "I obviously saved it, and I didn't kill them."
While the little fox was healing its wounds, it said unhappily, "You're the weakest one here, so of course it wants to take it out on you."
It said aggrievedly: "I don't understand."
"It saw you kill so many demons from the same clan, so it naturally regards you as an enemy demon."
It emphasized again: "I didn't do it, I saved it."
"So what?" The little fox felt even more helpless when he saw that it still didn't understand.
Jiu Qingling said succinctly: "We have different positions. Whether you fight or not, there is a grudge."
The red fox stood there blankly, feeling even more aggrieved.
The little ghost said earnestly, "If you are soft-hearted towards your enemy monster, you will be cruel and ruthless towards the monsters on your side. You must remember this."
It said in a small voice: "They are cubs."
The little ghost said expressionlessly, "So? Are we going to wait until they grow up and kill you and the monsters around you?"
The red fox felt aggrieved and confused.
In the silence, Jiu Qingling suddenly asked, "Awake?"
Tao Zi hummed softly and said, "I can barely control myself."
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to the seriously injured sixth-level monster and repeated the question: "Where is his arm?"
The sixth-rank demon beast laughed and said, "It was already eaten up by the clan leader and the others a long time ago. There's not a single drop left."
The little fox said quickly: "Tao Zi, calm down. Those monsters are equivalent to the Mahayana stage of humans. Don't act recklessly."
Tao Zi stabbed the monster to death with a single blow, walked towards the altar, and placed the soup and pot into the storage ring before answering, "I know. Where's he?"
Jiu Qingling knew who she was asking about and replied, "I don't know, but the nine-tailed fox has been guarding near the place where he disappeared."
She was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you."
The next moment, she appeared ten miles away, and the little ghost disappeared on the spot.
The little fox was dumbfounded: "Did this person run away?"
Jiu Qingling said: "She doesn't need a companion now. Let's go, we need to clean up the mess."
