Something's wrong with this demon.

Chapter 57 Ending

"Smack..."

Zhou Yan's body, now dried up from being sucked dry, lay slumped on the ground.

Its eyes bulged out, its teeth were exposed, and its entire face was skin and bones, withered and twisted, looking extremely ferocious and terrifying!

In the forest, a cold wind blew, chilling to the bone.

Zhang Jiu's smile had frozen, the knife in his hand began to tremble, and his wide pupils were filled with terror.

Sun Tong, who was just about to coordinate with Zhou Yan's attack, was now frozen in place, his fists raised, his body still in the fighting posture, but he couldn't help but tremble all over, and his face had turned deathly pale.

"You...you..."

Zhang Jiu suddenly felt his throat go dry, swallowed hard, and his voice, like the knife in his hand, began to tremble violently.

A dried corpse! A dried corpse!

It was him!

It was him!

Chen Ju, Wang Long, Wang Hu, Yang Guang...

Luo Qingchen looked at him coldly, and walked towards him step by step.

"You...you stay away!"

Zhang Jiu hurriedly retreated, immediately pressing the knife against Zhao Yun's neck on the ground, trembling as he cried out, "If you take one more step closer, I...I'll kill her!"

However, even he himself knew how ridiculous this vicious threat was.

Zhao Yun was already on the verge of death.

Now, his body has been hacked to pieces, and he is barely clinging to life.

If he were to kill him with a single blow, it would be a relief.

"Brother Luo..."

Zhang Jiu suddenly burst into tears, pleading, "I have no deep-seated hatred for you. I've always treated you like a brother. Why turn against your brother for a prostitute, especially a ruthless, heartless monster? It's not worth it, it's not worth it at all!"

Luo Qingchen stopped in front of him, still staring at him with icy eyes.

Zhang Jiu hurriedly added, "My brother is above, and my master is also a disciple there, and he knows your master. If you kill me, you won't survive either. Let's shake hands and make peace, as if today's events never happened, okay?"

"boom!"

Luo Qingchen threw a punch.

Zhang Jiu hurriedly rolled backward, and at the same time, he threw the knife in his hand at him.

He shouted urgently, "Brother Sun! Run! Go and inform Captain Zhou!"

Actually, Sun Tong had already started trembling and quietly backing away as Luo Qingchen walked towards him, even before he shouted. When he heard Luo Qingchen shouting loudly, he cursed under his breath and immediately turned and ran.

However, Luo Qingchen had just broken through to the Blood Exchange Realm and was at the peak of his physical condition.

Zhang Jiu's dodges appeared to him almost as slow motion.

"Bang!"

The fist, brimming with power, slammed into Zhang Jiu's chest the instant he leaped from the ground!

Zhang Jiu was sent flying by the impact.

Luo Qingchen didn't even glance at him before turning around and chasing after Sun Tong, who was fleeing in panic.

The strength of the Bone Strengthening Realm and Blood Exchange Realm was fully demonstrated at this moment!

In the blink of an eye, Luo Qingchen had caught up with Sun Tong, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him up.

At this moment, Sun Tong, who had just been evenly matched with him, suddenly became so vulnerable.

"Bang!"

He punched him in the chest.

Sun Tong's chest caved in instantly, and he flew backward, returning to the spot where he had been standing, crashing heavily to the ground.

That punch actually took his life.

His eyes were wide open, his mouth agape, all his ribs were broken, his heart was shattered, and a large amount of blood was gushing from his mouth.

He only twitched once before dying instantly.

Luo Qingchen walked over, placed her hand on his chest, and sucked all the blood from his body.

Another mummified corpse.

At this moment, Zhang Jiu, after being punched, no longer had the strength to run away. He could only stare wide-eyed in horror at the scene, crawling on the ground in a sorry state, trying to get away from there.

Luo Qingchen looked up at him, then walked over step by step and stood in front of him.

"Wait! Brother Luo, do you remember? I was the one who greeted you when you first came to Bai Xiang Lou! I..."

"boom!"

Luo Qingchen punched him in the face, denting his entire cheek and rendering him unable to utter a single word.

"boom!"

Then, another punch landed on his left arm, breaking it with a "crack," and then he ripped his left arm off!

Then, his right arm, left leg, and right leg were all smashed and torn off!

"ah--"

Zhang Jiu finally let out a scream!

The sound was like a pig being slaughtered, shrill and terrifying!

But at that moment, Luo Qingchen punched him in the heart. With a "poof," the fist shattered his heart and pierced through his body!

Zhang Jiu's body jolted, his eyes widened, he trembled a few times, and then he died.

Luo Qingchen pulled out her blood-soaked arm and sucked all his blood dry!

When Zhang Jiu's face contorted into a grotesque, dried-up corpse, Luo Qingchen carried his body to the girl and slowly placed it before her eyes.

At that moment, the ferocity on his face and the bloodlust in his eyes turned into tenderness.

He said softly, "Those who hurt you are all dead."

Tears welled in the girl's eyes as she looked at him through her blurry vision. Her lips trembled slightly as she managed to say with her last strength, "Ah... Brother Chen, thank you..."

Then, she slowly closed her eyes.

The ferocity and resentment on her face were gone, replaced only by the tranquility and peace of a young girl.

She felt relieved and content.

Those who hurt her are all dead.

Those who care about her will likely live better lives.

She liked the ending.

At this moment, the black aura surrounding her began to change, as if it were struggling or fighting.

Sometimes they scatter, sometimes they gather together.

But it eventually disappeared quickly.

"Waaah—"

A cold wind blew through the forest, and black, withered leaves swirled and fell from the branches.

Then, it gently landed on her, as if tenderly covering her with a blanket.

"rustle……"

Suddenly, a series of noisy footsteps echoed through the silent, dark forest.

When Zhou Qingyang arrived with his men, covered in soot, the battered girl was already lying in a pit, her body engulfed in flames.

Luo Qingchen stood in front of the pit, quietly watching her, holding the pink money bag in her hand.

"Demonic energy! Such dense demonic energy!"

"Damn it, that monster actually escaped here! We've searched its lair for ages!"

"Captain! Look! A dried-up corpse!"

"There are three bodies! And...this person's clothes...look like Zhang Tou'er's!"

The garrison officers began to exclaim in alarm.

Zhou Qingyang, his face ashen, arrived at the pit where the flames were burning and looked at the mangled corpse inside.

Then, his gaze turned sinister as he looked at the boy in front of him.

"Guard Luo, what's going on? What happened here?"

He questioned in a cold tone, his right hand already on the hilt of the knife at his waist, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

Luo Qingchen seemed not to hear his words, her gaze still fixed on the burning girl in the pit. Then, she gently tossed the pink purse in her hand into the flames.

"Bang!"

Zhou Qingyang suddenly drew his sword and shouted sharply, "Guard Luo, I'm asking you a question!"

Luo Qingchen seemed to only hear him then, turning to look at him: "Didn't you see? There are demons in the pit, and Zhang Jiu and the others over there. I'm burning the demons."

Zhou Qingyang angrily demanded, "How did the demons escape here? How did Zhang Jiu and the others die? Why did you burn the demons?"

Luo Qingchen calmly said, "I don't know how the demon escaped here. I only know that I came here with Zhang Tou'er and the others. Then, the demon killed them, drained their bodies, and finally died from its own injuries. I saw that she still had demonic energy on her body, and I was afraid she would be resurrected, so I set her on fire. Is there a problem?"

Zhou Qingyang sneered, staring intently at him, and said, "All three of them are dead, so why are you unharmed?"

Luo Qingchen looked at him strangely: "Why do I have to die just because all three of them died? Does it mean that if Captain Zhou leads a team to capture monsters, and one teammate dies, all the others have to die with him?"

"presumptuous!"

Zhou Qingyang immediately shouted angrily, pointing his knife directly at him, and said, "Who do you think you are, daring to speak to me like that? Did you really think that just because I was polite to you before, you're someone important?"

Luo Qingchen remained calm: "Of course I'm no big deal, but Captain Zhou, what do you want me to say? Do you want me to tell you how I colluded with this monster?"

Zhou Qingyang snorted coldly and said, "Keep being stubborn! We'll see how stubborn you are when we get to the town guard's cell!"

He immediately shouted, "Tie him up and take him away!"

Two officers from the town's garrison immediately came over with ropes.

Luo Qingchen reached out and brushed aside the blade in front of her, saying, "Captain Zhou, I'm afraid you're no longer in a position to tie me up."

Zhou Qingyang was taken aback upon hearing this, and just as he was about to ask a question, a fist suddenly came hurtling towards him.

He felt a chill run down his spine and immediately threw a punch to meet the attack.

"Bang!"

Clench your fists together.

The two men jolted and took a few steps back.

Zhou Qingyang steadied himself, his blood surging within him. He stared at him in astonishment, then paused, suddenly realizing what had happened: "You...you've broken through?"

The two team members holding the rope froze on the spot.

Luo Qingchen said, "Indeed, you've broken through."

The room fell silent instantly.

The fact that the medicine man has broken through to the Blood Exchange Realm is absolutely explosive news here!

Some of them have been stuck at the Bone Strengthening stage for five or six years.

And many more are no longer here.

Their only goal here is to get up there.

Now, looking at the boy in front of them, suddenly able to go up there, their feelings were naturally very complicated.

They wanted to ask something, but Luo Qingchen had no intention of lingering there.

He still had to go back to Baixianglou to face Tian Feng.

"Captain Zhou, I've said everything I needed to say. If you want to continue questioning me, you can come find me at the higher-ups. According to the sect's rules, I can cooperate with you or not. Unless, of course, you're from the enforcement department above."

After Luo Qingchen finished speaking, she turned and left.

The people surrounding the town's garrison at the front had complicated expressions and unconsciously made way for them.

From this day forward, his status and position will be completely different from theirs.

He has officially become a disciple of the sect.
