Chapter 454: Demonic Cultivator (2/2)

Glancing at me with looks of disgust, I pretended to see smiles and admiration. After all, this is what they are truly feeling. They are just hiding it well!

”Let's go,” Said Sigried bluntly.

”Dicks,” I muttered beneath my breath as they left without looking back at there future lord.

Catching up with my team, a rather joy-full day began to trickle by as I began to hear about Lilith's rather bloodthirsty quest for blood. She had really requested her own mother give me blood, along with having Levi head back to paradise just to collect some blood samples. Then there were the people Lilith had killed leaving entire vilages in a river of blood.

Glancing at her silently humming off in her own world, I felt a little conflicted. She is crazy, but she still needs to be punished. What shall I do? No sex? Nope, I suffer in that scenario, lol. Guess it's cosplay, with hot wax and a whip... Yeah, let's go with that.

Finding a smile, Lilith suddenly turned to me. I could see the very hairs upon the nape of her neck rise. She shuttered, ”Sene?”

”It's nothing.” I answered secretively, ”Let's go.”

Moving on past the instinctive demoness on alert, my lips suddenly curled down at the familiar scent of ash fluttering down in the breeze.

”That smell. Ash. Let's take a look.” Kurt hastily uttered, rushing ahead, with Sigfried hot on his heels followed by Cleo, then Yu Jing.

”Are they going to help? Do people still do that? Have they not heard of stranger danger?” I barked annoyingly, sending a subtle glance at Lilith, staring with alertness.

'Demon lord, and the Innocent princess. That could be a nice theme. Naw Demon Lord and Cop, never seen that one. Don't worry, Lili. As your husband, I will train you to never screw me over like that again.

Rushing off after the others on a hilltop, a blazing sea of flames began to grow, causing my brow to drop at the rather demonic nature of those flames. It was a dark emerald shade, twisting about upon the village below.

”A Demon!” Cleo darkly uttered, confusing me.

That was definitely no demon. While the flames were demonic, he lacked in well everything. There was not even a trace of Hellish qi around his body, but rather a sinister qi that was corrupted.

Screams of both young and old howled in my ears like drums as a bald-headed man with a third eye stepped out from the flames with a devilish smile. He was tall, with muscles larger than an infant. His jaw was as sharp as his eyes, which shone the color of his flames.

”A Demonic Cultivator seems he is trying to become a demon.” Said Cleo darkly, a little pale at the death and ash below.

”It's not our problem,” Chimed in Yu Jing, ”This is the cultivation world; the strong eat the weak.”

Clapping my hands, I smiled, having gotten an idea, ”Indeed that is so true, but Yu Jing, as your Step-Father, I think it's my duty to help you see that the world doesn't have to be so cut and dry.”

She stared with smoldering hatred, unable to believe what she had just heard. ”You are not my Fath--”

”It's semantics. But you are not your Master, Jing. You are your own person, don't you think you should help your comrades? Look at them: Kurt, Cleo, even Sigfried is more than willing to help out of kindness? Why not assist them? If not for the people below, do it because they want your help. Cleo did say you all were family.”

Smiling warmly, my gaze fixed upon the little devil's heart worming deep into her core. She killed her own father, rejected her own mother, all for her master. Not everyone can be innately cold like me, Lilith or Aiza. Yu Jing was lonely, having pushed everyone away since birth.
