Jiang Cong originally thought it was just a woman making a fuss, but when he returned to the banquet, he actually saw a monster!
The young man's appearance was definitely outstanding among humans. If he didn't have a third eye on his forehead and a black tail behind him, Jiang Cong might have mistaken him for a young master from the imperial city!
"There really is a monster here..." Jiang Cong's eyes slowly showed excitement: "Quick! Catch him! Be careful, don't kill him, I want to keep him alive!"
Jiang Cong's guards were waiting outside the banquet. They had been wary of the monster for a long time. When they heard Jiang Cong's order, they all rushed forward immediately!
"Sir..." Master Shi pretended to shout anxiously, but he didn't say a word afterwards.
He stood in the middle of the crowd, looking angry and powerless about his daughter's birthday party being ruined, but his eyes were full of calmness.
Although he was really angry about the appearance of this little beast, but...
In that case...
It would be good to let Jiang Cong solve the hidden danger.
Master Shi had long been uneasy about Shi Hengan's healing ability. He had a vague feeling that if Shi Hengan was kept, the Shi family would sooner or later suffer a disaster.
But he also didn't want to order the killing of the other party himself, because he believed in the law of cause and effect and didn't want to bear the sin.
Jiang Cong's order was exactly what he wanted.
Unlike Master Shi who was calm, the other people at the banquet were really terrified. They huddled together in panic, wishing they could escape from the Shi family immediately!
They had heard that the eldest son of the Shi family was different from ordinary people, but this was the first time they saw him!
I didn’t expect Shi Hengan to look so scary!
He won't kill anyone, right?
In the chaos, Shi Hengan ignored the guards who were rushing towards him, looked at Shi Wuqing who had just arrived in the distance, and curled his lips slightly.
Oh wow
[I understand. This guy came here on purpose to ruin Shi Wuqing's birthday party (laughing and crying). I thought he was fooled by Shi Wuqing's false feelings.]
[Hahahaha, although I know there might be big trouble later, but after understanding the male protagonist's thoughts, I was really happy]
[No matter what Shi Wuqing wants to do, the birthday party is really ruined! (Schadenfreude)]
[However, if it were only Shi's family, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now... Jiang Cong is here too. He has a high status. Let's not talk about what will happen next. What if Jiang Cong has a demon hunter by his side?]
【……Depend on!】
[What are you afraid of?! The hero's power is awakening!]
"Yes, I've already gone through the most agonizing decade. How much worse can the future be? I'm already invulnerable!"
[+1! What are you afraid of? Just do it!]
As soon as Shi Wuqing came over, he was met with the provocative smile of the young monster.
She was stunned for a moment, then, after seeing the situation clearly, she hurried forward: "Jiang Cong! Don't hurt him!"
“…” The noise of the crowd died down a bit, and many people looked at Shi Wuqing in shock.
What did she say?
Why would she help the monster?
Jiang Cong was also surprised, "Qingqing?"
The guards did not hear Jiang Cong's order to stop and had already arrived next to Shi Hengan. They picked up their spears and stabbed tentatively!
Although the young master's order is to keep the victim alive, no one dares to be careless when facing a monster!
They plan to first incapacitate the monster and then capture it!
"Brother!" The girl's anxious voice rang out again: "Stop it!"
As she spoke, she continued to run over there.
Jiang Cong frowned, grabbed her, and pressed her into his arms: "Qingqing, don't go over there, be careful not to get hurt."
He heard what Shi Wuqing said, but didn't take it seriously: "Qingqing, that's not your brother anymore. Remember what I just told you? Some humans are assimilated by monsters and become monsters!"
The struggling girl in his arms froze.
Jiang Cong continued, "Once these people become monsters, they'll be nothing like their previous identities! They'll also inherit the monsters' cruel habits, killing and eating people, and abandoning all human emotions..."
Jiang Cong was not lying to Shi Wuqing. What he said was true. Anyone who was transformed into a demon by a monster would become a brutal hunter.
If monsters that are transformed from animals and plants can be divided into good and evil, then humans who have been transformed into monsters are definitely 100% evil.
However, Jiang Cong didn't know that Shi Hengan was not in this situation.
But in the eyes of "Shi Wuqing", what he said was very consistent with Shi Hengan's situation.
The monster in front of her was not her brother. Her brother was still trapped inside the monster.
If she didn't try harder, her brother would really disappear and never come back.
The fog cleared and became quiet.
Shi Hengan witnessed her quietness with his own eyes.
These guards were different from ordinary servants. They were well-trained and equipped with elite weapons. It was impossible for Shi Heng'an to defeat them. Being in the center of the encirclement, he couldn't even escape.
But he had no intention of escaping.
Facing the guards' spears, the young monster just dodged a few times symbolically. When there was no way to avoid it, he stood there without dodging or evading, staring at Shi Wuqing with his dark eyes.
A spear pierced his abdomen.
Blood flowed out.
Shi Hengan smiled instead, his voice calm: "Qingqing, won't you save your brother?"
"……"What!
Shi Hengan saw clearly that as soon as he finished speaking, the girl not far away opened her eyes wide in astonishment, and her expression became shocked and incredible.
What do you want to do?
Puppet sister.
No matter what the reason for the changes in the past two days, you didn't want to act like a loving brother in front of others and just watch him die, right?
You're clearly planning something deeper and more difficult to understand, aren't you?
"Brother!" Shi Wuqing instantly grabbed Jiang Cong's sleeve, looked up and begged, "Hurry up and make them stop! Brother still has his own thoughts!"
Her fingers were trembling, and her panic and worry were visible.
Shi Hengan smiled even more happily.
He looked in a miserable state. In a short time, the second spear pierced his shoulder. However, his black eyes did not show any fear, but instead a hint of anticipation.
The people around him gasped at his smile and fled in fear. Only the girl was still begging for mercy and worried about his life or death.
Shi Hengan felt that his current mood was better than ever before.
