Chapter 190: #190 - Immortal Flying Knife

“If what you say is true, then the man-eating demons in this world are mostly members of the former imperial family?”

Chi Yao's words truly shocked everyone. After all, ancient books have always recorded that demons are ancient beings, existing since the beginning of time. Even when humans were still in their infancy, demons existed in the world.

Demons are transformed from the spiritual essence of heaven and earth. Those who are foolish and do evil in the mountains are called beasts. Those who bring good fortune to all living beings are called spirits. Those who do not compete with the world are called sprites.

After many years of enlightenment, in the eyes of the world, demons are fierce creatures, evil beings that harm people's lives.

If a person encounters a demon, their life is often in danger.

Many immortals subdue demons and eliminate evil, unable to tolerate the existence of demons in the world.

But what I never expected today is that among the many demons in this world who harm people, there are actually humans.

“The Jiang clan studied the way of demons, taking the spiritual charm of demons into themselves to obtain the power of creation. They naturally have long lives, hoping for the joy of longevity. But they never expected that heaven and earth have their own cycles. Transforming into demons can grant longevity, but it is also defying the heavens. Their various evils will eventually be rewarded. They often have to eat their own kind to maintain their sanity. If they do not eat humans for a long time, they will lose their sanity and turn into foolish creatures in the mountains. The destruction of Taicang should also be like this. If destiny is not righteous and harms the world, who in the world will not attack it?”

“I became like this because of them. They said that I am the last descendant of Taicang and should take on the responsibility of heaven, reorganize the rivers and mountains, and recreate the universe. But they turned me into this inhuman, demonic appearance. Snakes are inherently lustful, and I have become like this, driven by them day and night.”

As Chi Yao spoke, her eyes glared at the surroundings. The walls of the cave were covered with dense human skulls. A hint of pleasure appeared in her eyes, and even a trace of warmth appeared on her face.

“The bloodline of the Taicang imperial family can alleviate the drawbacks of transforming into a demon, and they turned me into a snake demon just for their own selfish desires. What about reviving the Taicang dynasty? What about righteousness? It's just their lies. I finally escaped from here and got rid of their shackles.”

Jiang Wen listened to Chi Yao's words and saw that everyone had fallen into silence. After thinking for a while, he asked, “Then why did you come back here? Where are those people?”

“I naturally want to come back here. I want to repay my pain a hundredfold!” Chi Yao said with a cruel smile, her expression quite joyful.

“I killed them all, killed them all! Then I washed their bones clean and hung them on the walls.”

Everyone then understood that the bones on the wall were actually the remains of the predecessors of Taicang.

“Since you hate what the Taicang people did, why do you harm innocent people like them?!” Jiang Wen asked again.

“Harm innocent people? How did I harm them?” Chi Yao looked at Jiang Wen contemptuously. “I have never stained my hands with the blood of innocent mortals. I just spent some money, and cultivators and mortals tried their best to find all kinds of people for me. If we really want to talk about this, aren’t the people of Dagan the ones who harm innocent people?”

As she spoke, Chi Yao looked at the giant cauldron not far away. Then she smiled: “How would you know that even the cauldron used to perform the secret technique was made for me by someone. I just moved my hands and performed the secret technique. In the end, no matter how evil I am, it is not even one ten-thousandth of the evil in the world.”

“You demoness are still arguing, if you didn’t act like this, how could child trafficking have happened.” Li Yunshang rebuked. “Don’t always portray yourself as so innocent. Although there are evil people in the world, you are the one who ultimately gave the driving force. And look at how much evil you have done. Isn’t that San Shen Water so poisonous, all because of you?”

“Little girl, you are eloquent, but unfortunately you found the wrong person. I didn’t refine the San Shen Water.” Chi Yao smiled. “You should have seen it in the cave that day. Those snake eggs are the things used to refine the San Shen Water. And I just cultivated these things and then sent them out. As for where they ended up, that has nothing to do with me.”

“… … So that’s how it is.” Jiang Wen was also a little stunned. He then understood why Chi Yao was so angry at the beginning. It turned out that the origin of the raw materials was destroyed.

“Naturally, there is a true dragon entrenched below. And I just used the aura of the true dragon to mix these snake eggs into the souls of the dead, and finally I can get the things needed to refine the San Shen Water. Now that it has been destroyed by you, I am afraid that San Shen Water will also become extinct.” Chi Yao shrugged her shoulders, looking indifferent. Her eyes looked elsewhere, and then she said with a smile. “It’s getting late, I won’t play with you anymore. Shougui, how long are you going to wait?”

Chi Yao's words shocked everyone, saying that this demon also had accomplices, and they all looked around.

Before they could find that person, they saw a two-edged flying knife piercing through the air, turning into a blood-red streamer and piercing through Chi Yao's head.

Chi Yao covered her neck and looked up in shock. She staggered a few steps and then her head fell to the ground.

“The Immortal Slaying Flying Knife passes, gods and ghosts are destroyed. So it turns out that I have never gained your trust… …” Chi Yao said, her eyes losing their luster.

All this happened too suddenly. Jiang Wen activated the Four Elephants Formation and looked around. But he failed to see the person who attacked, and he failed to save Chi Yao.

Several people surrounded Chi Yao's body, looking at the sadness that had not yet dissipated on her face, and remained silent.

“Even the soul has been taken away?” Hearing Ziyun’s words, Jiang Wen’s fear of the flying knife deepened again. That flying knife can not only kill people, but also destroy people’s souls. It is really a terrifying magic weapon.

Fortunately, the other party did not attack them, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

“The water of this God Worshipping Society is really deep.” Lu Shiming smiled.

“Let’s clean up and leave. Since Chi Yao is dead, the matter of Su City can be considered to have come to an end. There are still many trivial matters to deal with later.”

After a few people checked the situation of the temple and took away some useful things, they left the cave.
