A righteous young hero? But I am a demonic cultist.

Chapter 29 The Second Transformation of the Heavenly Demon, Bloodlust Fills the Sky

After Ren Yingying and Green Bamboo Elder parted ways, she ran into the mountains, where the vegetation was lush and there were plenty of places to hide.

However, she was unaware that Yue Yuan's sword was extremely sensitive to "human scent." Relying on the sword's sensitivity, Yue Yuan quickly caught up with the fleeing Ren Yingying.

With a few leaps, he blocked Ren Yingying's escape route.

"Miss Ren, where are you going?"

Seeing that her route was blocked, Ren Yingying immediately stopped running away, saying, "Where I am going is none of your business, you evil Taoist."

As Yue Yuan wiped his sword, he said calmly, "Actually, I have no intention of being enemies with the Holy Maiden. I just want one thing."

"What is it?"

"The Three Corpse Brain God Pill and its antidote."

Ren Yingying was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.

This mad Taoist priest, whether hiding his face or not, is either a member of the Divine Cult, because only a member of the Divine Cult can wield such a powerful weapon.

Either this mad Taoist priest wants to use the pills to stir up trouble in the martial arts world, or whatever the case, she will not allow it, and the pills must not be handed over.

"Holy Maiden, you're not unwilling to give it to me, are you? I've given you the chance, so don't take it for granted."

Yue Yuan oversimplified things, thinking he could exchange Ren Yingying's life for the Three Corpse Brain God Pill and the antidote. But who was Ren Yingying? She was a little devil who had grown up under Dongfang Bubai's command since childhood, and she was not afraid of such threats at all.

She calmly took out a bottle of pills and handed it to him. Yue Yuan quickly reached out to take the pills.

To everyone's surprise, Ren Yingying shattered the porcelain bottle and the pills with a single palm strike.

"No~~"

Yue Yuan stared blankly at the powder on the ground, muttering, "Why did you have to force me? Why did you have to challenge my bottom line?"

He raised his head, revealing his blood-red eyes, and stared fiercely at Ren Yingying. The sword in his hand trembled as it sensed his anger.

The malevolent energy within the sword began to invade Yue Yuan's body.

[Warning, warning, the host's body is about to overload]

Yue Yuan ignored the system; he had only one thought in his mind: to kill Ren Yingying.

He began to absorb the murderous aura of the sword. The malevolent energy entered his body, suppressing his reason. Before long, the enchantment was completed.

Ren Yingying looked at Yue Yuan's blood-red eyes and the tangible murderous aura emanating from his body, and dared not linger for a moment, quickly running into the forest.

Seeing this, Yue Yuan chased after her relentlessly and soon forced her to the edge of the cliff. Ren Yingying then leaped off the cliff.

Yue Yuan followed closely behind and jumped off the cliff.

Unexpectedly, Ren Yingying did a somersault in the air and threw out a thin rope with a sharp spike at the end, which pierced directly into a big tree on the edge of the cliff.

Yue Yuan, on the other hand, fell straight down.

Ren Yingying smiled contemptuously, "A brainless demon dares to fight me." But before she could be happy for long, a red longsword pierced through the clouds and directly cut the tree in half.

"Ah~~~~"

Ren Yingying fell off the cliff along with the tree.

The two were lucky; there happened to be a large pool at the foot of the mountain. After Yue Yuan fell into the pool, his consciousness began to return, and the evil aura slowly dissipated.

However, his body was already severely damaged at this moment, and his meridians in his dantian were broken.

He struggled to his feet and slowly swam back to shore.

Just then, a small, jade-like hand grabbed his ankle and dragged him into the deep water. He struggled a couple of times, thinking of using the sword to kill Ren Yingying, but the system had already forcibly sealed the sword.

[Warning, warning! The host's meridians are currently severed, and the dantian is shattered; the system is beyond its capacity.]

He choked on the water twice and felt a sense of despair.

Am I going to die here?

No, I haven't reached the top yet, I can't die.

Oh, and he also has the Heavenly Silkworm Demon Art.

The moment he sank into the water, the Heavenly Silkworm Demon Art began to circulate.

At that very moment, his heart began to pound violently, and his body turned fiery red, as if a red-hot iron had been dropped into water. The river water around him began to boil and evaporate, and the entire valley was soon shrouded in mist.

Ren Yingying's hand was also burned, so she had to let go and swim towards the shore.

Just as she was about to reach the shore, several bundles of fiery red silkworm silk bound her limbs and pulled her back into the blood-red cocoon in the center of the pool.

The intense heat from his body had burned everything on Yue Yuan's body to ashes. The copper coin mask had melted into a pool of molten copper, his hair had turned fiery red, and his body was covered with dark brown scabs, which were the impurities that had been removed after he underwent the reshaping of his entire meridian system and the cleansing of his marrow.

This is the second transformation of the Heavenly Silkworm Demon Art, with blood and evil filling the sky. With his current strength, Yue Buqun should not be his match.

He also awakened a new skill, Mind Eater.

He looked at the girl he had tied into a cross shape and felt that Ren Yingying was very suitable for his experiment.

He dragged his still-unshed body to Ren Yingying, who was trembling, and reached out to play with the jade pendant she wore around her neck.

"You said I only wanted one Three Corpse Brain God Pill, why won't you give it to me!"

Ren Yingying turned her head to the side. "Kill me if you want, but I will never give you the Three Corpse Brain God Pill."

Yue Yuan listened to her words as if they were the biggest joke in the world. "Give? Why should I need you to give me anything now? If I make you my puppet, my furnace, then everything you have will be mine."

As soon as he finished speaking, he placed his hand on Ren Yingying's forehead, activated the Heart-Eating Demon Art, and Ren Yingying cried out in surprise before fainting.

"Tsk, sorry, I might have used a little too much force the first time, it'll be over soon."

In about fifteen minutes, he had implanted the entire Heart-Eating Demon Seed into Ren Yingying's brain. He took two steps back, snapped his fingers, and said, "Wake up!"

Ren Yingying did indeed open her eyes. Unlike before, she no longer resisted; instead, she obeyed him.

He snapped his fingers at Ren Yingying and released the silk threads binding her.

"Raise your left hand!"

Ren Yingying obeyed the order and raised her left hand.

So obedient, that's good.

He slowly began to shed his outer shell and then walked up to Ren Yingying.

"Unveiling the mystery."

Ren Yingying blankly removed her black veil, revealing a stunningly beautiful face with skin as smooth as jade, a neck as delicate as a cicada's, and eyes as bright as water—truly a beautiful woman.

Unfortunately, she met Yue Yuan and could only become a fire extinguisher as a sign of respect.

He patted Ren Yingying's shoulder, gesturing for her to kneel down so he could borrow a fire extinguisher from her.

When the red-hot steel was immersed in cold water, it began to hiss, the sound echoing throughout the misty valley.

If there's one thing about Ren Yingying that pleases him the most, it's the way she looks at him pitifully while she's eating.

He felt great pity for Ren Yingying and fed her even more each time. With Yue Yuan's silent support, she became more and more motivated.

She ate her fill three times in just one hour.

An hour later, the two emerged from their cocoons.

Having obtained what he wanted, Yue Yuan arranged for Ren Yingying to return to the Divine Sect, while he rushed to Hengyang City.

When he returned to the Huashan Sect's headquarters, Yue Buqun happened to be returning with a group of disciples, including the Liu siblings and Qu Feiyan, whom he had just taken in that day.

Hearing the sound, he quickly went back to bed and continued to play dead. Fortunately, he had released himself a few times earlier, so he could fall asleep with his eyes closed now. Pretending to be asleep was too uncomfortable.

He had just fallen asleep when the door was pushed open. Yue Lingshan entered and closed the door again. Then she sat by his window, propped her chin on her hand, and told him what had happened that day.

"Junior brother, when will you wake up? Yilin said you were alright, but why won't you wake up?"

"You have no idea how much happened today. First, Uncle Liu's plan to retire was thwarted, then many people from the Demonic Sect came, but in the end we drove them away."

"Let me tell you, a crazy Taoist priest showed up at the conference today. He was wearing a dark red Taoist robe and looked absolutely disgusting. You're so much better; you're always clean-cut and handsome."

Perhaps due to the day's fatigue, her voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, and her eyes slowly closed.
