Chapter 108: You're feeding me medicine again?
"Si Nanyan must be insane!"
Wen Zhixing executed the Blood Escape Skill, transforming into a blood mist and speeding frantically towards the outside world!
His expression was grave, and he was thoroughly perplexed. Si Nanyan's purpose in coming to the Righteous Sun Sect should have been solely to capture me. Why is she now suddenly involved with that so-called devil race? I can't figure it out. Si Nanyan shouldn't have slaughtered these outer sect disciples of the Righteous Sun Sect. If she did such a thing, the Righteous Sun Sect could fully retaliate in kind, leading to a fight to the death between both sides. This was the same principle Liu Qingxuan and the others had abided by when they stormed the Wonderous Palace; they hadn't killed anyone indiscriminately then either. What's more, the Wonderous Palace is a notch weaker than the Righteous Sun Sect.
What Wen Zhixing did not know was that Si Nanyan had not intended to make an enemy of the Righteous Sun Sect either. All she wanted to do was capture Wen Zhixing and, along the way, stir up some trouble. Creating the devil seed was also meant to secretly control some disciples of the Righteous Sun Sect.
Who could have known that Elder Wu would suddenly attack...
It could only be said that it was a misunderstanding that led to a bloody incident...
"Eh, you sure run fast for a two-legged sheep."
Suddenly, a strange laugh sounded beside his ear, and a devil shadow abruptly appeared before him.
Wen Zhixing's pupils shrank. He was currently using the Blood Escape Skill. But this devil general's speed was even faster than his!
"Suppress!"
The devil shadow raised its hand, and an overwhelming oppressive force bore down.
Wen Zhixing felt his body sink; the blood mist scattered abruptly, and he was forced back into human form, fixed in place.
His face turned deathly pale, then quickly recovered its color.
"TEEHEE."
The humanoid devil shadow floated down. Its huge black wings unfurled and the Devil Qi dissipated, revealing a voluptuously curved and seductive body. The rigid armor covered only her vital areas.
Wen Zhixing looked up, only to see a pair of wicked, peach-blossom eyes looking intently at him. Flaming red hair framed a face so beautiful it was beyond mortal comparison.
"You..."
Wen Zhixing was stunned. The devil before him was nearly indistinguishable from a human. Except for an extra pair of wings. No, there was also a slender tail above her curvaceous rear. It was uncertain if the two small black horns on her head were part of her or attachments on her armor.
"You... smell so good..."
However, the female devil general suddenly leaned in close, sniffing with her delicate, upturned nose. Her senses were extremely sharp. The primordial yang on Wen Zhixing was extremely pure; even though he masked it well, she still caught a whiff of it.
"I like your scent..."
Her nose came closer and closer, her pert, full chest brushing lightly against Wen Zhixing's body. An itch tickled Wen Zhixing's neck; he could even feel her hot breath on his skin.
"If I ate you, wouldn't that be a great tonic!"
She extended her crimson tongue, licked her lips, and revealed terrifying fangs, her expression like that of a hungry wolf eyeing its food, drooling with anticipation.
"Which part of me do you want to eat?" Wen Zhixing frowned. Though unable to move his body, he still stubbornly opened his mouth to speak.
At that moment, his mind was stable. This female devil general won't kill me. If she had wanted to kill me, she wouldn't have merely suppressed me.
"You two-legged sheep are quite amusing." The female devil general pinched his cheek, her eyes gleaming. "You look okay, just a bit too thin. Feeding you something should fatten you up nicely."
The next moment, a black bead appeared in her palm.
"This is..." Wen Zhixing's expression stiffened. Isn't this bead the very thing Si Nanyan collected earlier? Damn it! We've left the Wonderous Palace; how can this drug-feeding scenario be happening again? I was fed medicine by Qiu Yinger of the Third Realm when I was only in the First Realm. Now that I've reached the Third Realm, I'm encountering a Fifth Realm devil race member about to feed me medicine again. This is truly bizarre!
BOOM!
Ink-colored flames blazed fiercely on the bead. The bead then plunged directly into the center of his forehead.
Wen Zhixing's brow furrowed tightly. He could feel an unknown force burrowing into his mind. The next moment, he felt the black bead enter the space above his Sea of Sense.
The ink-colored flames spread wildly, sweeping through the surroundings.
His eyes instantly turned black.
Ink-colored flames surged from within his body, coalescing into devil runes that etched themselves all over his body.
"Clear Heart Incantation!"
Wen Zhixing realized his mind was being invaded and immediately began to recite the Clear Heart Incantation internally. However, this time, the Clear Heart Incantation seemed to have lost its effect. The devil runes all over his body flickered with light, shredding his awakening reason.
"This is so troublesome!"
Wen Zhixing didn't panic and quickly gathered his thoughts. He stopped trying to expel the devilish intent and instead used the Clear Heart Incantation to protect his last vestiges of consciousness. I shouldn't panic. I still have methods, but it's not necessary to use them now.
Soon, devil runes covered his entire body. All the flames retracted, coalescing into an ink-colored seed that then entered his Sea of Sense.
THUMP.
The seed emitted a faint glow, slowly rotating within his Sea of Sense, dyeing the originally clear expanse an inky black. At the same time, Wen Zhixing's Sea of Sense began to expand. This was the power of the devil seed being absorbed by the Sea of Sense, the two complementing each other.
"It's done. A lower devil servant," the female devil general smiled slightly, nodding in satisfaction.
Then, she grabbed Wen Zhixing by the back of his collar, spread her black wings, and flew back the way they had come.
Wen Zhixing's head drooped; he didn't resist. His remaining consciousness retreated further, hiding itself to avoid detection. Good. I'll preserve my life first and infiltrate the enemy to assess the situation.
「Moments later,」
The female devil general returned to the previous battlefield with Wen Zhixing in tow.
By now, Elder Wu had been mercilessly suppressed and was surrounded by three devil generals. A vast Array had been set up around them, preventing his escape and blocking any messages he tried to send.
Although Elder Wu was a Fifth Realm Spirit-traveling Realm cultivator, he was no match for three Fifth Realm devil generals, not to mention Si Nanyan of the Sixth Divine Communication Realm was also present. The outcome was predictable.
"AH!"
Elder Wu let out a pained scream, his previously dignified, sage-like appearance gone. Just as Wen Zhixing had experienced earlier, ink-colored flames engulfed his body. However, as a Fifth Realm cultivator, he was not so easily controlled.
"Elder Wu, stop struggling. You'll only cause yourself more pain," Si Nanyan, in the guise of Hua Yourong, stood by with an enchanting smile, though her eyes were icy.
"You… who exactly… are you!" Elder Wu's eyes bulged, his voice hoarse. He had probed with his spiritual sense before but found nothing out of the ordinary.
"Stubborn fool." Hua Yourong snorted coldly. With a flip of her slender white hand, several more black beads shot into Elder Wu's forehead.
BOOM!
This time, Elder Wu could no longer bear it. His eyes gradually turned pitch black. His consciousness began to falter.
Wen Zhixing watched the scene before him and sighed inwardly. In a way, I'm the one who caused Elder Wu's downfall. I really didn't mean for this to happen. Who could have guessed Si Nanyan was so insane, attacking so directly?
