Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 731: Chapter 731: National Demon Sprite (22)

Chuzheng looked at the dead demon, Is it so fragile to a step?

I just stepped on it once...

”Miss, the little one just now was trying to self-destruct using its inner core.” The King’s Account said speechlessly: ”You stepped on it once, and the poor creature was suffocated by its own inner core’s power.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

That scared me to death.

Luckily, I stepped on it back in place.

”...Violent maniac!”

Just now, all those demons died so thoroughly that only dust remained.

This one, however, was intact. Chuzheng searched the body but didn’t find anything useful, just a compass-looking item.

The compass was very retro, with patterns carved on it, though Chuzheng couldn’t make sense of the messy designs. However, the compass seemed like a very ancient item.

Chuzheng tried to move the compass.

A chill suddenly rose up Chuzheng’s spine.

She quickly turned her head to look.

Monster Qi filled the air above the ancestral hall, spreading rapidly outward.

Chuzheng’s heart skipped a beat.

The defense around the courtyard seemed to be recovering, but compared to the speed at which the Monster Qi was spreading above the ancestral hall, it was far too slow.

Chuzheng quickly threw out the Yin Xian, which danced in the air, weaving a protective shield.

Before the Monster Qi could spread any further, it was blocked by the shimmering silver light of the protective shield.

-

Demon Hunter Alliance.

Inside the Alliance, members were having a meeting to discuss the competition for the vice-chairmanship.

”For this election, I believe the personal qualities and upbringing of a Demon Hunter are very important.”

”Strength has always been paramount, adding rules suddenly this term might cause discontent among some.”

”The position of vice-chairman is no joking matter; it should not be that just anyone can fill the role. Therefore, I say the rules of the competition are flawed.”

”What’s wrong with them? Isn’t this the fairest method?”

”Fair? Who among us isn’t forming cliques and factions?”

The people in the meeting room started arguing more and more heatedly.

A few Demon Hunters felt that the Alliance couldn’t go on like this, otherwise, it would eventually become nothing but a vassal for the wealthy.

But this proposal threatened the interests of those backed by the wealthy elites, and naturally, it faced resistance.

While both sides were in heated disagreement, someone suddenly pointed out the window in a certain direction.

”Chairman, Monster Qi!”

The middle-aged man also saw the Monster Qi shooting into the sky, but in an instant, it vanished without a trace.

But everyone still felt the power of that Monster Qi; it was terrifying, unlike any they had ever seen before.

The crowd, previously arguing about the election for the vice-chairmanship, instantly shifted their focus to the new topic.

”That’s over by Chunxia Street. Old Lu disappeared around there; I told you that Great Demon is definitely still there.”

”So much time has passed; that Great Demon must have fully awakened by now.”

”I said we should search house by house; we would have found it, but you wouldn’t agree. Now look what’s happened.”

”Easy for you to say, with so many ordinary people living there, how were we supposed to search?”

”Didn’t Old Lu send a message at the end?”

”Old Lu’s last message was also unclear...”

The Chairman slammed his fist on the table, his face stern.

The chaotic meeting room fell silent.

”Send someone to check out the area,” ordered the Chairman. ”Do not act rashly, just observe first.”

Moving blindly towards such Monster Qi was akin to courting death.

”Yes!”

-

Others who had detected the Monster Qi included more Demon Hunters and demons.

However, the Monster Qi disappeared too quickly; most had not even gotten a clear feel of it before it was gone.

Just that brief moment was enough to terrify every demon in the city.

Meanwhile, the owner of that Monster Qi was curled up on the Beauty Couch.

The man’s handsome face was still somewhat pale, but the agony had faded from his brows.

His pitch-black eyes stared at the screen, unfocused, and his whole body exuded a seductive aura of evil that was truly intimidating.

Chuzheng came around from behind the screen.

She stopped at the edge of the screen, not going any further.

The man on the Beauty Couch slowly raised his eyes, his lips parting slightly, ”Xiao Yao, I now believe you are not Xiao Yue.”

I told you I wasn’t!!

So the question is...

How come the original host had that... aura of Xiao Yue?

Chuzheng suppressed this doubt and asked him, ”What happened just now?”

Xun Yin shifted his gaze away, propped himself up to sit on the Beauty Couch, and as his elaborate and luxurious clothing unfolded, he was once again that enchantingly handsome Great Demon.

”This thing locks not just my body, but once I am moved emotionally, it will be like just now...”

Xun Yin paused, ”a burning desire so fiery it’s as if the soul itself is being scorched.”

It was a true blaze, as if the soul was on a grill.

He had thought Xiao Yue had tricked him, but it turned out to be true...

Chuzheng’s voice was cold as ice, ”That damn... Does Xiao Yue like you?”

Xun Yin gave Chuzheng a glance and complimented her, ”Xiao Yao, you’re quite clever.”

”Do you like her?”

Xun Yin scoffed coldly, ”If I liked her, I wouldn’t be here now.”

”That’s good to hear.”

Xun Yin looked at her.

The latter met his gaze calmly. What are you looking at?

After thinking for a moment, Chuzheng asked, ”Is Xiao Yue dead?”

”I don’t know. When I was locked up here, she was injured,” Xun Yin said. ”You have her aura; you’ve had contact with her. It seems she must not be dead.”

”Oh, soon enough.”

If she’s not dead yet, once I find her, then she’s as good as dead. Let me pre-order a luxury death package for her.

Chuzheng tried to walk forward, and seeing that Xun Yin had no objections, she approached him and lifted the chains with her fingers.

”How can this thing be removed? Cut through it?”

”Are you going to help me remove it?” Xun Yin was somewhat surprised.

”You seem to be in pain.”

A Good Person Card can be confined, but you can’t let it suffer; you must be a good person who pampers the Good Person Card!

Chuzheng spoke in a calm tone, her facial expression unchanged, and Xun Yin couldn’t fathom what she meant.

Remembering he could be moved emotionally by her, Xun Yin felt a peculiar sensation deep in his heart.

In his previous dream, he only felt uncomfortable, but he wasn’t completely caught up in it...

He had seduced her just to deceive her into releasing the chains that bound him, never really planning to do anything with her.

However, now, Xun Yin was starting to want...

Xun Yin gathered his scattered thoughts, ”I thought you were Xiao Yue before, but you’re not her, you won’t be able to unlock it.”

There’s nothing I can’t do!!

Chuzheng grasped the chains, trying to shatter them with demonic power.

But as soon as the demonic power touched the chains, it was absorbed instantly.

Xun Yin leaned against the Beauty Couch, his voice somewhat low, ”It’s no use.”

If it were that simple to break free, he wouldn’t need someone else’s help.

Chuzheng, acting like a brother, patted his shoulder with the swagger of a boss, ”Don’t be afraid.”

Xun Yin: ”...”

Chuzheng followed the chains to the wall and examined it.

All four chains were embedded in the wall.

The chains were covered with a force of demonic power, which didn’t seem too formidable—at least on the surface.

”The only way is to find Xiao Yue...”

Before Xun Yin could finish speaking, a loud rumble sounded.

The entire wall behind them collapsed.
