"It looks like something's coming straight at us!"
Shen Yunhao turned his head and saw that in the darkness of the night, he could only see a small black dot in the far distance.
The little fox also turned its head to look, its eyes flashing with intelligence. After a moment, it was startled. "What the hell? Shouldn't it be those Dragon Blood Sect elders? This looks like... a big monkey?"
Shen Yunhao's expression was rather grim. "Are you sure? They should have gone into the Demon Tower to destroy the evidence, then framed us, and sent elders to hunt us down. How could a giant monkey have escaped?"
"It's too far away, but my senses about demons shouldn't be wrong. It's a giant ape with very high cultivation..."
After the ground trembled, Shen Yunhao quickly realized what the other party wanted to do.
With four powerful experts at the Spirit Void Realm protecting them, the Dragon Blood Sect Master knew very well that it was unlikely to capture everyone here and block the news, so he could only choose to destroy the evidence in advance.
What is the evidence?
Everything inside the Demon Tower is evidence!
Once the Demon Tower is completely destroyed, Shen Yunhao's words will become meaningless...
A few captured Qi Refining Pills are simply not enough to prove the numerous crimes committed by the Dragon Blood Sect!
The ground trembled because the Dragon Blood Sect was beginning some kind of destruction process.
Moreover, Shen Yunhao was well aware that with these people's inhuman methods, this process would not only kill all the monsters in the Demon Tower... but even the disciples of the Dragon Blood Sect would not escape death!
In this way, after the Demon Tower collapses, the Dragon Blood Sect can shift the blame for the deaths of their disciples onto Shen Yunhao and Bai Xiaoruo, and then send elders to hunt them down.
They could even conveniently pretend to be the victim and seek the protection of the Moon Palace... At that time, whether it is the North Sea Dragon Clan or the Li Continent Demon Clan, they will face considerable resistance when they seek revenge.
It was precisely because he foresaw this that Shen Yunhao took Bai Xiaoruo and fled quickly. However, the sudden appearance of the giant ape was indeed beyond Shen Yunhao's expectations.
After thinking for a while, Shen Yunhao seemed to understand something. "If I'm not mistaken, this thing should have been released from the lower level of the Demon Tower. It seems to have been affected by the evil soul's blood energy and lost its mind..."
"This monster's cultivation is even more terrifying than those elders. If it's released, the surrounding towns will surely suffer a great calamity!" the little fox said viciously. "Aren't they afraid of retribution for doing this!"
“Retribution…” Shen Yunhao lowered his head and sneered, “With someone taking the blame for them, what retribution are they afraid of? It’s just that… in this way, the conflict between the human race and the demon race seems to be becoming more and more irreconcilable!”
"They're irreconcilable! Disgusting humans..."
"..."
At this point, Bai Xiaoruo felt her words had gone a bit too far, so she coughed twice and said, "Um...you...you're rather cute...unlike them..."
"Enough of that. We need to figure out how to deal with this monster right now. If it gets to Qiyue City, all the people will suffer!"
"Strange, why is this guy chasing after us like this?"
"Using someone else to do the dirty work..."
"What?"
Shen Yunhao explained, "The ferocious beast has appeared and is heading straight for us. Senior Zhu Hong and the others' primary goal should definitely be to stop the beast... But now they are letting this ferocious ape come and hunt us down. The only explanation is that the higher-ups of the Dragon Blood Sect have intervened!"
"Now that I think about it, this ferocious beast was most likely released by the Dragon Blood Sect on purpose, to use someone else to do their dirty work! It's much better for us to die at the hands of this monster than for them to do it themselves!"
"And the reason why this monster keeps chasing us is probably their doing!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaoruo was so angry that she gritted her teeth. "What a vicious scheme! Damn humans! Since that's the case, why don't we lure this monster to the Dragon Blood Sect's headquarters, destroy the Dragon Blood Sect's gate, and let them suffer the consequences of their own actions?"
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yunhao shook his head. "Firstly, these high-ranking members of the Dragon Blood Sect only care about themselves and never care about the lives of their disciples. No matter how much trouble this demon beast causes, the demon race will ultimately bear the blame... and even you and I will have to take the fall. This will deepen the conflict between the two races, which is not what you or I want..."
"Secondly, assuming the Dragon Blood Sect is prepared and sends Void Soul Realm experts to intercept us in advance, it would put us in a pincer attack, making things even more dangerous!"
"This won't work, that won't work..." the little fox said in exasperation. "These are demons comparable to those in the Spirit Void Realm. They'll catch up sooner or later! Won't we still be doomed to die then? I'll let it go, my father certainly won't let me die, but what about you?"
"..."
Shen Yunhao lowered his head, looking at the large fox flying through the air, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
He bent down and gently stroked the long, white hair on its neck.
"You! What time is it? How can you still be thinking about this..."
"Please retrieve the Wind Chariot for me!"
"What?"
The little fox was taken aback.
"Let's just go our separate ways!"
"Separate...?"
“The Wind Chariot is faster than a Soul Control Realm cultivator. Without me slowing you down, you can also use the Body Borrowing Technique to increase your speed. We’ll go in two directions… Demons whose minds have been devoured can’t use magic, so the black ape can only chase one of them, giving the other person a chance to escape.”
"this……"
Bai Xiaoruo felt her mind suddenly go blank.
No matter how dangerous things were before, the two of them had overcome them together. Now that they were suddenly saying they had to separate, she was at a loss for what to do.
"Don't hesitate!" Shen Yunhao scolded in a low voice, "Didn't you just say that with your father protecting you, you would definitely be fine? But I don't have a father like that. If I get caught, I'll die... As long as we separate, and that giant beast goes after you, I'll survive, right? With your father protecting you, you'll be fine too, right!"
"..."
That's the logic...
But upon hearing this, the little fox felt an indescribable sadness welling up inside her, as if an invisible hand had gripped her heart and twisted it hard.
The oppressive pain made her tremble slightly.
Even when she witnessed the ruthless actions of the Dragon Blood Sect members before, she hadn't felt this suffocating emotion.
And now, a casual remark from Shen Yunhao can make her so upset...
Where the little fox couldn't see, a hint of reluctance flickered in Shen Yunhao's eyes, but it was ultimately replaced by a resolute rejection.
"If you insist on dragging me down with you, we can be a pair..."
Before the words were even finished, the little fox made a sharp turn in the air and landed on a nearby hilltop with a whoosh.
After landing, Bai Xiaoruo transformed into human form and took out the Wind Chariot, placing it on the ground.
"Get lost, I'll go lure the giant beast! Consider it... consider it my way of repaying you for risking your life to accompany me this time!"
The girl's face was cold.
Shen Yunhao had only ever seen this expression in the Demon Tower back then.
Bai Xiaoruo had the same expression when she saw the imprisoned and murdered demons.
Shen Yunhao opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing. He started the Wind Chariot and flew south!
"You damn bastard! Don't come back!"
Seeing that Shen Yunhao had really flown away, the little fox finally couldn't hide her emotions and sat on the ground, hugging her legs and crying...
