126: Living Demon

This thing seemed very agile, constantly observing Lu Ze's movements and reacting accordingly.

"This Demon is quite interesting."

Lu Ze sneered. Up until now, he had never encountered a Demon with such power.

"In that case, I'll have to use my real skills to kill you! Shadow Kill Art!"

Suddenly!

Lu Ze's body split into a Clone!

The two Clones were identical, even their Spiritual Qi was chaotic!

The figure at the edge of this world was also stunned to see this!

Lu Ze's two figures, one in front and one behind, rushed forward with extreme speed!

Countless stars also appeared around the thing at this moment!

The stars rapidly dimmed, and countless sword lights slashed down, forcing the thing into a corner!

And Lu Ze's first figure had already arrived, the sword in his hand gathering Spiritual Qi and swiftly slashing down!

The thing immediately revealed its true form, raising both arms to block!

"Whoosh!"

The moment the sword of Lu Ze's first figure touched the Demon, it, along with the figure, vanished!

The Demon was also stunned. Just then, Lu Ze's second figure, which was his true body, had already arrived in front of it!

The sword rapidly slashed down, and the Demon instinctively looked up!

"Bang!"

The sword swung, and a head fell to the ground!

"Buzz!"

This world suddenly shook violently, and the originally enchanting peach blossom paradise quickly disappeared, replaced by barren land, full of hard dirt and rocks, with not a blade of grass in sight. The sun hung far away, a crimson expanse, like the end of the world!

Fu Liang and the others' bodies trembled, and the bloodshot in their eyes quickly faded. They only felt a slight pain in their eyes, and it seemed as if something had disappeared from their minds, but they quickly returned to normal!

Fu Liang was the first to regain consciousness. Looking at Xiong Lu directly in front of him, he was so startled that he took a few steps back, "Why are you here? Why am I here? Why are we here?"

The others also noticed that their positions had slightly changed; they had actually surrounded Xiong Lu.

Seeing them return to normal, Xiong Lu's body also relaxed, and she let out a breath, "It's finally over."

Fu Liang and the others were puzzled.

Xiong Lu said, "We fell into a trap set by a Demon as soon as we entered. You all were instantly entranced by the Demon and even controlled by it. If Young Master Lu hadn't killed the Demon, if it had controlled you for a little longer, it would have caused irreversible damage to your minds!"

Hearing this, the group felt a chill down their spines and quickly checked their bodies. They found that, apart from a slight pain in their eyes, everything else was normal, which brought them some relief.

Fu Liang looked at Lu Ze, only to see him standing with his sword, looking down at something.

He walked a few steps closer, "Young Master Lu, thank you for your help. If it weren't for you..."

The moment Fu Liang walked beside Lu Ze, his voice abruptly stopped!

He saw!

In front of Lu Ze, a corpse lay on the ground, head separated from body.

Looking closely, the corpse was clearly humanoid!

The figure was about the size of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, wrapped in animal skin, dirty and disheveled, with all limbs intact and distinct fingers.

The head lay on the ground, eyes wide open, hair covering its face, but it was still clear it was a young girl.

Qin Wan and the others also followed.

Lu Ze looked down at the corpse, blood dripping from his sword, staining the ground, his expression full of confusion.

The others who had been rescued from the control also walked over. Seeing the corpse, they immediately exclaimed, "Is this a human? Did you kill someone?"

Fu Liang frowned, stepped forward to investigate briefly, then took out a lighter, lit it, and threw it onto the corpse.

A fire quickly consumed the corpse of this thing.

"This is just a Demon in human form."

Fu Liang spoke with certainty, defining the nature of this thing. He then glanced at the others, "If Young Master Lu hadn't stepped in to save you, you would have already been controlled by this Demon and become its slaves! Can't you see that now? Aren't you going to thank Young Master Lu?"

The others were actually somewhat disbelieving in their hearts, but they now understood that their previous state was indeed being manipulated by something. Now that Fu Liang was so stern, they all thanked Lu Ze and then left.

After the others had walked away, Fu Liang spoke, "Young Master Lu, let's go."

Lu Ze watched the fire gradually consume the face of the corpse, and suddenly spoke, "Is this... a Human Demon?"

Cheng Ran had told Lu Ze before that the corpse Meng Yanxing and the others wanted was a Human Demon!

A Demon with a human appearance!

But didn't Cheng Ran say that these things were very rare?

In this world, he should have only seen one corpse.

If this thing in front of him was really a Human Demon, wouldn't that mean Human Demons were already multiplying in this world?!

Fu Liang, being well-traveled, explained to the others what a Human Demon was.

Qin Wan and the others didn't know much about this thing, having never even heard of it until today, and Fu Liang had only heard of it but never seen one.

Based on its appearance, this thing was indeed human, with human facial features, organs, but it possessed strange powers.

However, if one were to compare this power to Martial Skills, then this thing could also be considered human.

Whether it was human or a Demon, it actually depended on whether it had independent consciousness and whether it randomly attacked normal humans.

But now that Lu Ze had killed it with a single sword, it was impossible to distinguish whether it was a Demon or not.

"It is a Human Demon."

Fu Liang answered directly, "Young Master Lu, this is a Human Demon!"

Fu Liang was unsure if Lu Ze killing an ordinary person would affect his state of mind.

If Lu Ze's state of mind were to be disturbed by this, leading to mental obstacles in his cultivation path, the loss would be too great!

So Fu Liang immediately defined the situation, eliminating all possibilities of it becoming a mental obstacle for Lu Ze's cultivation.

The others also shared this sentiment but remained silent. If they all agreed, wouldn't it seem unnatural and only add to Lu Ze's psychological burden?

Lu Ze was silent, frowning deeply.

Actually, he had never doubted himself.

Because, the moment he killed the Human Demon, the System had already given a prompt.

【Congratulations to the Host for slaying a Human Demon, granting the Host Demon Points: 500!】

Five hundred Demon Points… Slaying a Tier 3 Demon was 100 Demon Points, and a Tier 4 Demon was 1000 Demon Points.

These 500 Demon Points, falling between the two, indicated that the rank of Human Demons was independent of other Demons!

How many such Human Demons were there in this world, and how strong was the strongest Human Demon?

Everything was an unknown.

"System, what are the Demon Points for killing Human Demons of various ranks?"

Lu Ze asked directly in his mind.

【System Prompt: When slaying Human Demons, Demon Points are not differentiated by rank. As long as the Host kills a Human Demon, 500 Demon Points will be granted!】
