Xiao Feng did not leave the Nine-Headed Lion behind; he wanted to deal with the traitor, the Bird Demon, himself.
Seeing the bird demon in front of him still begging for mercy and spouting nonsense, Xiao Feng immediately set up an array around him.
Some formations among humans have methods to extract the demonic power of demons. Xiao Feng wants to use these formations as a cover to conceal that he knows the Star Absorbing Technique.
This is, after all, the territory of the Nine-Headed Lions.
Xiao Feng felt that no matter how friendly the Nine-Headed Lion was to him, he should always be wary of others.
But Xiao Feng didn't know that when the Nine-Headed Lion said he was going back, he really meant it.
The nine-headed lion had previously doubted Taotie's identity, thinking that perhaps some overconfident demons were impersonating Taotie.
After all, in his mind, Taotie couldn't possibly be that stupid.
But now, both the bird demon and Xiao Feng have acknowledged the identity of that ferocious beast.
The nine-headed lion was genuinely frightened and, of course, dared not do anything inappropriate behind Xiao Feng's back, such as spying on him.
Even after returning to his room, the Nine-Headed Lion was still relieved that he hadn't chosen to oppose Xiao Feng or take advantage of him.
He showed some kindness to Xiao Feng when Xiao Feng needed help; otherwise, Xiao Feng would definitely have accepted him as a disciple.
On Xiao Feng's side.
After Xiao Feng set up the formation, the bird demon knew that he would not be let go by Xiao Feng today.
He asked in a lifeless voice, "When did you find out?"
Xiao Feng tilted his head, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I knew it from the very beginning."
The bird demon suddenly looked up, staring at Xiao Feng in disbelief, its voice filled with shock: "What do you mean you knew from the very beginning? What exactly did you know?"
Xiao Feng smiled and calmly walked towards the bird demon, saying, "I know everything. I know you wanted to kill me, and I know you deliberately lured me to the territory of the great demon."
The bird demon's eyes were filled with despair; he thought he and the Taotie had planned things very well.
It turns out that they had been living under Xiao Feng's surveillance from beginning to end.
It turned out that Xiao Feng was watching them like clowns, jumping around and putting on a show.
Xiao Feng really fooled them terribly.
"You're really stupid. You believed everything he said, and now that you've been tricked, you're only just realizing your mistake?"
The sarcasm in Xiao Feng's eyes nearly broke the bird demon.
The bird demon tried to plead with Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng's hand was already pressed on the bird demon's head.
The bird demon had experienced the feeling of all its demonic power being inexplicably drained away.
Xiao Feng was all too familiar with this posture.
"No, Master, I know I was wrong. I'm willing to serve you as my master. Please forgive me. I'll never do it again!"
The bird demon tried to stop Xiao Feng.
But under the constraints of the formation, he couldn't even move.
He could only plead with Xiao Feng, hoping that Xiao Feng could forgive him.
"I did consider letting you go, but unfortunately, you're too stupid. You're being led around by him. But it doesn't matter. After I deal with you, I won't let Taotie go either."
As Xiao Feng finished speaking these last few words, the suction force on his hand increased dramatically.
The bird demon once again felt all the demonic power in its body being absorbed by Xiao Feng.
His face was filled with despair, yet he was no longer able to speak.
Xiao Feng didn't actually go too far last time, otherwise the bird demon leader would have become an ordinary bird demon.
If Xiao Feng were to completely strip away all of his cultivation, he wouldn't even be able to speak.
Just like the ordinary bird demons he led before.
That was his original demonic power.
After careful consideration, Xiao Feng decided to keep his original demonic power for the time being, as it would be more useful.
Now that Xiao Feng no longer needs it, his original demonic power will also be absorbed by Xiao Feng.
The excruciating pain, as if his bones were being torn apart, constantly reminded the bird demon of the foolish choice he had made.
His regret and hatred were of no use.
This time, Xiao Feng left no cultivation for the bird demon; he became an ordinary bird demon.
Xiao Feng did not harm him. After stripping all the demonic power from his body, he removed the formation and prepared to release him.
The bird demon stared blankly at Xiao Feng, as if he didn't know why Xiao Feng didn't kill him.
The bird demon could no longer speak, so he could only stare intently at Xiao Feng with his tiny, beady eyes.
"You don't want to leave? But I don't want to kill you. You're still a life. I've already drained all your cultivation. Letting you live is the greatest torture for you."
The bird demon tried to attack Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng simply raised his hand and waved it away.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy enveloped the bird demon and carried him far away.
There are many demons like bird demons here.
Although he wasn't particularly strong, he was still able to become the leader of the bird demon clan.
He wouldn't be content to be just an ordinary bird demon.
But now, he can never return to the heights he once reached.
To kill someone is to destroy their spirit.
Of course, killing a demon also requires destroying its spirit.
This is what can torment him for the rest of his life, causing him lifelong suffering.
Now that we've dealt with the bird demon, it's time to settle the score between Xiao Feng and Taotie.
Xiao Feng released Taotie from the spatial dimension.
When Taotie saw that Xiao Feng and the others had returned to the territory of the Nine-Headed Lion, he knew that his and the bird demon's previous plan had failed.
Because he was trapped in space.
He was unaware that his plan with the bird demon had already been exposed to Xiao Feng.
Taotie pretended to know nothing and wanted to condemn Xiao Feng for his despicable act of not releasing the Devouring Python during their battle, intending to drag it down with him.
"You want to use the Devouring Python to kill me anyway, so what's wrong with me taking you with me to die?"
Xiao Feng used only one sentence to instantly put Taotie on its guard.
Taotie turned to look at Xiao Feng in disbelief, its voice trembling: "How did you know?"
Xiao Feng said calmly, "The bird demon has already told me everything. Guess how I know?"
Since the bird demon had already been sent a thousand miles away by Xiao Feng, he could say whatever he wanted now.
Taotie cursed the bird demon inwardly for being unreliable, then tried to adjust his expression and said awkwardly, "Don't listen to his nonsense. I've been with you for so long, how could I possibly betray you? This was all his idea..."
Taotie wanted to say something more, but saw Xiao Feng raise his hand and set up an array around them.
As an ancient ferocious beast, he immediately recognized that the formation Xiao Feng had set up was used to strip away demonic power, and he shrieked, "Xiao Feng, what are you doing? You promised you would let me go!"
Xiao Feng said calmly, "I just won't let you go, so what can you do about it?"
Taotie choked, realizing he truly had no way to deal with Xiao Feng.
