Panda Novel

Shen Ying walked a few steps closer and looked in the direction of the demonic Qi. It seemed as if there was a figure inside the demonic Qi that resembled a deadwood. She did not know if she was mistaken, but the demonic Qi really did seem thinner. Could it be that they’re growing too many plants in the sect, so that the black fog is being affected?

This was not good. Afterall, the demonic Qi was Father Niu’s business tool. It was akin to losing piles and piles of immortal stones.

Just as Shen Ying was thinking about whether to keep all the plants, the demonic Qi in front of her surged and began to condense toward the bottom.

“Little Big Sister, the demonic Qi… is disappearing!” Radish, which was still holding on to Shen Ying’s thigh, started to panic. “Why is this happening?”

Huh?

Shen Ying looked toward whether the demonic Qi was condensing and then jumped down toward it, as if discovering something.

Sitting at the bottom of the hill with his legs folded was a man in a black robe. He conjured a spell with his hand and was muttering something. At once, a huge amount of demonic Qi surged toward him, as if they were being summoned. His body absorbed all the demonic Qi. As the demonic Qi began to bloat, demonic scars appeared on the man’s face. His clear eyes slowly turned red.

Lan Hua tried to contain his excitement and focused his energy on absorbing the demonic Qi. He did all he could to cleanse his body of the remnant immortal bones. He had already quashed his cultivation and began training as a demon a long time ago, yet he could not get rid of that last bit of good-heartedness within him. That was stopping him from becoming a true Skyfiend. Who would have thought that he would find so much demonic Qi hidden away in such a deserted area of the immortal realm. Heaven was really helping him. With this demonic Qi, he would finally be able to rid himself of the immortal bones and become a true Skyfiend.

The more he tried to absorb the demonic Qi around him, the more he could feel his energy increasing. The crazed excitement began to overwhelm him. His spirit stage became darker and darker, until the last shred of light disappeared.

If he absorbed every single bit of the demonic Qi, he would be able to. He would be able to…

“Hey, Big Brother!” He felt a weight on his shoulder.

Lan Hua, who had been concentrating on absorbing the demonic Qi, started. His absorption process came to a halt. Before he could respond, a huge face filled his vision.

A strange woman was squatting in front of him. Her head was resting on one of her hands as she stared at him. “You’re here… to absorb the fog?”

“Huh?” He could not think of a response. He stared blankly at her and nodded.

“You’re not an air purifier.” She looked at the demonic Qi around her, which had become significantly thinner. There was so little demonic Qi left. Father Niu would definitely be hounded by the next batch of clients he lets in to this place. “Absorbing too much fog is bad for you.”

“Huh?” Subconsciously, Lan Hua relaxed his hands. Two seconds later, he regained his senses and his eyes widened. Wait, why am I listening to her? “Who are you?” How could I not have sensed that there was an outsider nearby!

“My name is Shen Ying. I live here,” she said as she pointed behind her.

Live here?

How could it be! People of the immortal realm have always been so afraid of demonic Qi that they could not get far enough away from it. How could there be people who live in…

Subconsciously, he turned to look in the direction that Shen Ying was pointing in. Indeed, there was an immortal hill there, and he could sense the aura of immortals. There were so many of them.

There were really people living inside the demonic Qi!

He was too excited when he spotted the demonic Qi earlier. In addition to the richness of the demonic Qi, it was no wonder that he failed to notice that there was an entire immortal hill hidden inside the demonic Qi. Are these immortals crazy? How could they live here?

His heart sank and he was suddenly filled with the urge to kill. He had not completed his demonic training and he had not gotten rid of the last bit of good-heartedness in his body yet. He absolutely could not give away his whereabouts now. “Since you’ve discovered me, I cannot leave…”

He waved his hand and it became a claw, which shot straight toward Shen Ying’s chest, aiming to go right through to her heart.

“You want to eat this?” From out of nowhere, Shen Ying retrieved a fruit and handed it over, placing it in his claw.

Lan Hua halted and looked at the fruit in his claw. He seemed to have been stunned by this.

“… For me?”

“Yes,” Shen Ying replied, nodding. She gave him a fruit on account of the fact that he was Father Niu’s client. “You don’t like it? I have no other fruit – this is my last one.” She retrieved an identical fruit and bit down on it.

“…”

“You’re so hungry that you’re even eating the fog. That’s really pitiful,” Shen Ying sighed.

Lan Hua looked again at the fruit in his hand. It was an Immortal Retention Fruit. Although not fully ripe it still had good healing effects. It could not be that she did not realise he was a demon. Why was she treating a demon immortal…

He just managed to suppress the desire to kill her. A silence fell between them and the fading light on the spirit stage suddenly intensified. The demonic Qi mixed together with his blood, breaking his meridians. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Oh no! He was still holding on to that last shred of good-heartedness…

“Hey, hey, hey… What are you doing? Shen Ying was obviously shocked. She held him up by his robe and tried to clean up the blood. “Don’t scare me by throwing up so much blood.”

“Don’t touch me!” He panicked and pushed her hand aside. The blood in his heart was now in more of a mess than ever. No way, he could not control it anymore.

“…”

“You…” He looked up fiercely and glared at her with his red eyes, looking like he wanted to swallow her up. “Why did you do that?”

He had spent tens of thousands of years and worked so hard… so hard to suppress that last shred of good-heartedness left within him. Yet, that bit of good-heartedness awoke inside him just because of one fruit that she gave him.

“Huh?” Shen Ying was so confused. “What did I do?”

“You… You did it on purpose, didn’t you?” He was so angry that his features were being twisted with rage. He continued to glare at her. “So what if you managed to awaken my good-heartedness? Today, you shall die here!”

As he finished speaking, the demonic Qi suddenly exploded and a black sword appeared in front of them. The sword shot down toward Shen Ying.

“Hey, hey, hey…” Shen Ying looked even more confused than before. Why was he acting this way all of a sudden? She reached out to defend herself.

He stopped two steps in front of her, bent over and spat out another mouthful of blood. The demonic Qi around his body dissipated, along with the black sword. He fell down onto the ground and began retching and coughing, throwing up more blood.

Lan Hua was so angry that he even wanted to curse Shen Ying’s parents. Damn it! He could not do anything to her anymore. The good-heartedness inside him sprouted because of her. She was his good-heartedness. His body fought itself when he tried to hurt her – it turned on itself instead.

No way! I must kill her, or I will never become a Skyfiend!

He ran the risk of breaking all the meridians in his body, and charged at her again with a new black sword.

“No matter what, you need to…” The word “die” hadn’t even left his lips when he fell onto the floor. The sword in his hands stopped in mid-air and his tone changed against his will. “Go… to the rock over there and rest. The demonic Qi here is really strong; you might get sick!”

“…” Huh?

He kept his sword and used his sleeve to sweep the dust off the rock.

Wait! What was he doing?

Lan Hua pulled himself together and once again looked furious. He drew his sword the third time and charged toward her.

“I don’t believe I can’t kill- You can’t stand here. The demonic Qi is too strong. Come, maybe if you hold this top-grade weapon, you would feel better.”

Shen Ying: “…”

Why was he saying this?

He tried the fourth time.

“Nobody can stop me from becoming a true demon. You… why don’t you have a single immortal weapon on you? Here, hold this. I used this when I was still an immortal cultivator.”

He tried the fifth time.

“I will not be controlled by my good-heartedness. You… do you want a fruit? This Immortal Retention Fruit is too ordinary. I have a Treasure Spirit Fruit. It’s one in a million, and it can increase your cultivation. Do you want it? ”

He tried the sixth time.

“I also have an immortal talisman here, and a dharma treasure…”

The two people who were watching this entire process: “…”

“Radish.”

“Yes.”

“Have you seen someone as crazy as this?”

“Never before, but now I have.”

Shen Ying: “…”

Radish: “…”
