This gaze further shocked Gu Qianying.
Baili Su possessed a pair of crimson eyes, a devilishly charming smile plastered on his face.
His raven hair had turned fiery red, reminiscent of Gu Qianying herself when she had become the Demon Empress, controlled by inner demons.
The familiar aura widened Gu Qianying’s eyes.
“Baili Su, you…”
Seeing Baili Su like this, Gu Qianying was stunned.
“My dear wife, do you not recognize me? I am your husband, Baili Su. My dear wife, do I look good like this?”
Baili Su slowly approached Gu Qianying.
Gu Qianying, in turn, retreated step by step.
“My dear wife, are you afraid of me? My dear wife, you cannot be afraid of me, for I am your husband. My dear wife, do you no longer love me?”
His voice was laced with seduction.
“Who are you?”
Gu Qianying held the Scarlet Blood Saber, pointing it at Baili Su, preventing him from getting any closer.
“My dear wife, I am your husband, Baili Su. My dear wife, do you not recognize me? We just got married. My dear wife, do you not remember?”
Baili Su showed no fear of the Scarlet Blood Saber in Gu Qianying’s hand.
He moved behind Gu Qianying, watching the approaching man-eating bats.
His smile grew more sinister, “My dear wife, it matters not if you do not recognize your husband. As long as you obediently become their food, it will be fine. My dear wife, your flesh is very fragrant, hahaha…”
What Baili Su said made Gu Qianying turn around warily, almost at the very moment several man-eating bats attacked her.
Gu Qianying leaped lightly, holding the Scarlet Blood Saber, slashing at the surrounding man-eating bats.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Qianying was heavily surrounded by a dense swarm of man-eating bats.
Meanwhile, the “Baili Su” still standing on the rooftop watched as Gu Qianying was completely enveloped by his beloved pets, leaving no room to escape.
A triumphant smile spread across his lips, “My darlings, enjoy your meal. Her flesh is the most exquisite taste in this world.”
“No! Qianying!”
A voice suddenly exploded in the “Baili Su’s” mind.
“Baili Su!” His gaze turned icy cold.
He spread his palm, pressing two fingers against his chest.
Another spiritual entity within him was stirring.
“You monster, let me go! Don’t hurt my wife! Let me out!”
The true Baili Su shouted from within the man.
He felt as if he were imprisoned in a dark chamber, with no exit to be found.
No place where light could reach.
Yet, he could see Gu Qianying’s situation through the eyes of this body.
Listening to the desperate cries from within his own body.
The man chuckled sinisterly, “Baili Su, you are a useless wretch who can do nothing. A wretch like you, wanting to save your wife? Haha, how utterly laughable. Baili Su, I don’t care what your identity was before. Now you are qualified to be my vessel. Just obey me obediently.”
“I guarantee that as long as I live, you will not die. You and I, we will achieve eternal youth and live forever. Isn’t that good? Why do you insist on Gu Qianying?”
What was so special about her that she could grant you eternal life? Hmph!
It was Baili Su’s blood that awakened him. At that time, his consciousness was weak, and he had been recuperating and cultivating within Baili Su’s body.
As his strength gradually recovered, he could finally emerge.
He had seized Baili Su’s consciousness and his body.
The current Baili Su was him.
No, he was not Baili Su. He was the Demon Lord Moluo, the king of all ghosts, the most powerful being in this world, using this body.
Under his suppression, the true Baili Su gradually fell silent.
Meanwhile, Gu Qianying, still fighting off the numerous man-eating bats, continued to slay them.
On the other side.
Gao Tian Shou, who had been waiting for a long time, waited for twice the normal duration a man would take.
Only then did he disable his visual and auditory senses, transform back into human form, and return to the dungeon.
He intended to ask his master and Young Master Baili Su if they required him to prepare a bath.
Upon entering the dungeon, he found it completely empty.
Gao Tian Shou, who had come out to search for Gu Qianying and Baili Su, immediately saw the dense swarm of man-eating bats.
At this moment, terror flashed in his eyes again.
Not good! That thing is out!
Though he felt a pang of fear, he had no time to think. He immediately drew his sword and flew towards the area surrounded by the man-eating bats.
Gu Qianying had killed many man-eating bats.
These man-eating bats were no match for her.
She was unharmed, and her robes were not stained with any blood.
However, after fighting for so long, she was indeed tired.
There were too many man-eating bats. For every group she slew, another would fly towards her.
Gao Tian Shou arrived at this moment. With his assistance,
The two quickly finished off all the man-eating bats present.
The dead man-eating bats fell to the ground in a black mass, their blood concealed by their dark wings.
Seeing his pets all killed, not a single one left.
The man occupying Baili Su’s body, his bloodthirsty eyes ignited with killing intent.
He raised his palm, leaped forward, intending to attack Gu Qianying and Gao Tian Shou.
Suddenly, the voice in his mind spoke again.
“Don’t hurt her! If you dare to hurt her, I will take my own life! I will prevent you from obtaining me as your vessel, and I will make you vanish into thin air!”
This voice, with a startled cry, broke through the barrier and reached his ears.
The man frowned.
Damn it!
He turned around, fearing Baili Su’s self-destruction, and prepared to fly away.
Gu Qianying, who had been looking in his direction, saw him about to leave.
“Stop him! Don’t let him escape!”
As she gave the command, Gu Qianying also pursued.
Gao Tian Shou was closer to the “Baili Su” than Gu Qianying.
Receiving his master’s command, Gao Tian Shou paused, suppressing the fear within him.
Gao Tian Shou stepped forward to intercept.
His sword swung, blades clashing.
Gao Tian Shou was clearly no match for the man before him.
After a brief exchange, the man wounded Gao Tian Shou with a black sword.
As Gao Tian Shou stumbled backward, Gu Qianying arrived.
Several black threads wrapped around Gao Tian Shou, stabilizing his landing.
At the same time, Gu Qianying unleashed her demonic power and engaged in a series of fierce battles with the man.
“My dear wife, why are you in such a hurry to kill your husband? Do you wish to become a widow?”
The man taunted Gu Qianying as he attacked.
The voice within him continued, suppressed by his immense effort.
“You are not him! Hand him over!”
Gu Qianying knew Baili Su better than anyone.
It was precisely because of this that Gu Qianying was absolutely certain that the person before her was not Baili Su.
Of course, she also believed that the one who married her in the dungeon was Baili Su.
But the one now was not.
She had seen this before – using an ordinary person’s body as a vessel and usurping their consciousness.
But… she did not know who the person before her was?
No, she should ask, who was this soul occupying Baili Su’s body?
His identity exposed, the man no longer bothered to pretend.
“Hahaha, they say the Demon Empress is quite formidable, not only intelligent but also a leader in the demonic realm. Originally, this Lord did not believe it, but what I see today has truly surprised me.”
As the man looked at Gu Qianying, a greedy glint appeared in his eyes.
“Demon Empress, how about marrying me? We can cultivate together, and I will grant you eternal youth. What do you say?”
