Gu Qianying raised an eyebrow slightly, directly spread out her palm, and smiled exceptionally brightly.
"Your acting is too poor. Although what you said sounded real, your eyes can't deceive others."
"And just now, you wanted to make a move on me. That evil aura is something I'm most familiar with. No matter how deeply it's hidden, it can't escape my sight."
Gu Qianying thought of something else, her eyes filled with amusement, and she mockingly said, "By the way, you suffered a backlash from that evil fire. Are you better now?"
She was clearly provoking him and didn't wait for him to speak before continuing.
"I forgot, you still have to act in front of me, how could you possibly recover? It's truly a pity, you can only endure the suffering for nothing."
From the moment she got into the carriage, she had already realized something was amiss with this person.
The spiritual energy within this individual was mixed.
If what she said was true, and they hadn't eaten anything these past few days, their spiritual energy should have been weak, not so complex.
Within this spiritual energy, there were many other energies intertwined.
Gu Qianying had encountered demonic possession before and was very familiar with this feeling.
That was why she had already become very vigilant at that time.
Later on, this person couldn't hold back and repeatedly tried to attack Gu Qianying.
Gu Qianying didn't want to alert the enemy.
So, just as they were about to make a move, she used various methods to dodge them directly.
Xiao Zhudan, however, acted in haste and couldn't control the chaotic aura within her body, ultimately leading to her body suffering a backlash.
All of this was within Gu Qianying's calculations.
Upon learning the truth, Xiao Zhudan was furious. The anger in her nostrils almost erupted.
She let out a roar, angrily got up from the ground, and repeatedly pounded the railing in front of her.
"Let me out, let me out."
Gu Qianying burst into laughter. "Let you out? Don't dream. If I let out someone as ambitious as you, wouldn't I be the one to suffer in the end?"
Bai Yufeng held his long sword, still silent.
She sensed the fluctuations in this person's aura, which seemed to indicate signs of an outburst.
Finally, she spoke to remind Gu Qianying, "Be careful. This person seems to be revealing their true form. Can this iron cage of yours hold them?"
Gu Qianying retreated backward subtly, the corner of her mouth twitching.
"Naturally."
"Can it hold them?" Bai Yufeng raised an eyebrow.
Gu Qianying wore a bitter smile. "Of course not. Hurry up and disperse the crowd. This thing can eat people."
Bai Yufeng drew his long sword and stood his ground. The power emanating from it tore through the air, bringing a hint of enraged energy.
Because the aura here was soaring, the previously clear sky began to turn extremely gloomy. A few dark clouds condensed together, and lightning suddenly struck.
Gu Qianying took the opportunity to run out from behind and shouted at the people on the street.
"Run quickly, the blood-sucking beast is here. Don't stay here any longer."
The citizens of the city valued their lives. Before Gu Qianying's words had even fallen, they all broke into a run, fleeing frantically into the distance.
In just a moment, the place was silent, with no crowds remaining.
And behind them, Xiao Zhudan, the Blood-Sucking Beast King, had revealed its true form.
This creature had a green face and fangs, its body even larger than those blood-sucking beasts in the cave. The two sharp teeth at the corners of its mouth jutted wildly upwards, reaching towards the sky. Its eyes were hollow and bottomless, with blood constantly flowing from them. Behind it, it was covered like snakeskin, with chilling scales.
This creature, because it often fed on human blood,
Its scent was even more nauseating. With every step it took, it could stir up a patch of flesh and blood.
Flies from afar were drawn by the sound.
They circled around the Blood-Sucking Beast King.
The Blood-Sucking Beast King had fallen into a frenzy. It roared and shouted, "I will kill you all, I will kill you all, I will kill you all!"
Gu Qianying felt a chill and quickly hurried away, landing in front of Bai Yufeng, while also complaining, "If I had known that little girl was such a disgusting thing, I shouldn't have touched her."
Bai Yufeng gloated, "Do you remember what I told you originally?"
Gu Qianying pouted, helpless. "Young Master, is this the time to say such things?"
As the two of them argued, the smoke from the poisonous gas emanating from the Blood-Sucking Beast King quickly rose, surrounding them.
Gu Qianying was suddenly choked, and she quickly covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve.
"This thing is poisonous."
Bai Yufeng nodded slightly, tapped his toes, and his figure landed in mid-air. He beckoned to Gu Qianying, "Hurry over."
Gu Qianying smoothly leaped up, simultaneously channeling spiritual energy to fan the white mist in front of her, scattering it back towards the Blood-Sucking Beast King.
A pill was thrown into Bai Yufeng's hand, and Gu Qianying clapped her sleeves. "Take this, or we'll turn into monsters like Bai Wenshan."
Although Bai Yufeng was disgusted, he still followed Gu Qianying's words and swallowed the item.
A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he spoke with unusual gravity in front of Gu Qianying.
"This thing is not easy to deal with."
Gu Qianying gritted her teeth, her gaze sharp, staring intently below.
"I know, you don't need to tell me."
As the words fell, spiritual energy erupted from their bodies, transforming into a heaven-shattering technique that matched the heavens and earth, directly surging towards the disgusting creature in front of them.
The Blood-Sucking Beast King roared several times, continuously opening its bloody maw, devouring almost everything in front of it.
As it moved, the world instantly changed drastically. Lightning struck the ground, followed by countless dust and smoke.
The commotion was so great that everyone in the city turned their heads.
"What on earth is this thing?"
"The Blood-Sucking Beast King has appeared."
Upon learning of the Blood-Sucking Beast King's appearance, everyone was shocked.
It was known that this creature, which fed on human blood and flesh, had always been confined to a forbidden area and could not have appeared before them. It had taken the Holy Feather family a great deal of effort to subdue it back then. Its reappearance today caused unease in everyone's hearts.
The two sides engaged in a fierce battle.
Although the Blood-Sucking Beast King's power was immense, Gu Qianying and Bai Yufeng, working together, finally subdued it at the last moment.
As the Blood-Sucking Beast King calmed down, it staggered and fell to the ground.
Gu Qianying finally let out a long sigh, clapped her hands, and thanked Bai Yufeng with a bow. "Thank you, Young Master. You saved my life."
During the tense moments, Gu Qianying was almost hit by the Blood-Sucking Beast King's palm. Fortunately, Bai Yufeng reacted in time and saved her, thus preventing her death or injury.
Bai Yufeng's eyes remained calm, without any reaction. He simply strode to the front of the Blood-Sucking Beast King and retrieved its beast core.
"Less nonsense, hurry to the Bai family."
Gu Qianying pouted. "Got it."
If she had known this, she shouldn't have thanked him just now, wasting her energy.
After obtaining the item, the two of them rushed to the Bai family without delay.
Bai Yangping's entire family, old and young, were anxious and uneasy. Gu Qianying had not yet returned, and they had already been waiting at the entrance for a full day, without stopping for a moment.
