Qin Shilei released his right hand from Su Xiaoxuan's waist, and a flickering lightning bolt appeared in his palm.
Upon seeing the lightning, the Soul Devouring Demon immediately stopped in its tracks.
The human opposite him had a faint aura of threat, coupled with the extremely threatening lightning that now appeared, it dared not act rashly.
Seeing that the Soul Devouring Demon opposite was scared off, Qin Shilei's heart immediately relaxed.
Only then did he have the time to activate his Purple Eyes of Illusion Shattering to examine the opponent.
Name: A sliver of the Soul Devouring Demon's remnant soul.
Description: A remnant soul after devouring vast amounts of souls, its strength is at the peak of the Silver realm, immune to physical attacks, and can possess living beings to devour their souls.
Indeed, this was a powerful Soul Devouring Demon.
Looking at the Soul Devouring Demon before him, Qin Shilei had little confidence in escaping Andre's pursuit with its help.
It and Andre were both demons, and he didn't know if they would join forces against him.
However, the appearance of the Soul Devouring Demon was the only chance he had now. He could only pray that the Soul Devouring Demon and Andre were not on good terms.
Before Andre could appear, the Soul Devouring Demon was already restless.
Facing the three delicious souls of Qin Shilei, it could no longer bear its desire and slowly floated towards them.
Purple Eyes of Illusion Shattering!
Qin Shilei instantly created an illusion filled with lightning and then pulled the opponent into it.
The Soul Devouring Demon, having fallen for the trap immediately, stopped in place, frozen with fear.
Just then, Andre kicked open the door and barged in.
Qin Shilei then dragged Andre into the illusion as well.
In Andre's eyes, the Soul Devouring Demon became Qin Shilei.
Without a second thought, Andre clenched his fist and struck at the Soul Devouring Demon.
"Have fun with my subordinate!"
Qin Shilei dispersed the lightning from his right hand, hugged Su Xiaoxuan, and teleported to the road outside.
He set off like lightning, rushing into the distance.
Behind him, as he had wished, came sounds of intense combat. kanδん
After running for several hundred meters, Qin Shilei casually summoned the Ghost Chariot.
"Get on quickly, hold on tight!"
Kong Qingshu was the first to mount the chariot, tightly embracing Qin Shilei's waist.
Su Xiaoxuan also climbed on, her hand encircling Kong Qingshu.
The Ghost Chariot, like a black bolt of lightning, silently shot forward.
Qin Shilei turned right at the next intersection.
After riding for another thousand meters, the sounds of combat from afar suddenly ceased.
Qin Shilei's heart stirred, and he rode the Ghost Chariot into a tall building nearby.
He stopped the chariot, put it away, and pulled the two women up to the eighth floor, where they hid in a random room.
"Why aren't we continuing to flee the city?" Su Xiaoxuan asked.
"I need to find out why Andre can always locate us accurately. Otherwise, even with the chariot, we won't escape his pursuit."
Qin Shilei explained as he checked his own body.
"I see."
Qin Shilei soon found a ball of black energy on his waist.
This ball of black energy was likely the same as the black energy surrounding Andre.
It was with this black energy that the opponent had been relentlessly tracking him.
Qin Shilei's heart moved, and a pure, Yang-infused lightning primal energy appeared in his palm, which he then pressed onto the ball of black energy.
With a hiss, the black energy was consumed by his primal energy and dispersed into the air.
"Let's move somewhere else."
Qin Shilei hugged the two women again and used his last bit of primal energy to teleport to a tall building across the way.
As soon as they appeared in the room, Qin Shilei collapsed onto the ground, completely drained.
The two women quickly held him up, asking in unison, "What's wrong?"
Qin Shilei said weakly, "Nothing, just depleted. Help me to the bed and then lock the doors and windows."
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Qin Shilei immediately took out two crystal cores and began absorbing them.
Kong Qingshu and Su Xiaoxuan went to close the doors and windows and draw the curtains.
Soon after, loud noises could be heard from afar.
Kong Qingshu walked to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain. Indeed, she saw that the wall of a room in the building opposite had completely collapsed.
Through the collapsed wall, she saw a figure wildly destroying things in the room.
Kong Qingshu did not dare to look closely, fearing her gaze would attract the attention of the other party, and quickly let the curtain fall back down.
Not long after, human screams and cries for help could be heard from outside the window again.
Kong Qingshu lifted a corner of the curtain again and quickly glanced.
This single glance ignited boundless rage within her.
That demon was chasing humans on the street in the distance.
Countless humans were crying and fleeing in all directions.
Andre was chasing them slowly but surely from behind, a cruel smile on his face.
With a casual wave of his hand, the black energy in his hand struck a fleeing human.
The human struck by the black energy began to dissolve at a visible rate, soon leaving behind only a bare skeleton.
Then, the larger ball of black energy flew back into Andre's body.
He had absorbed all of the person's flesh, blood, and soul.
"That's a demon, a real demon," Su Xiaoxuan lowered the curtain Kong Qingshu had lifted and murmured softly.
"If demons have appeared, is there still hope for us humans?" Kong Qingshu asked with a worried expression.
"It's been so long since the apocalypse, and we're still alive. We'll continue to live well in the future," Su Xiaoxuan comforted.
She paused and then introduced herself, "I'm Su Xiaoxuan, hello!"
Kong Qingshu extended her hand to shake hers, "I'm Kong Qingshu, hello!"
Su Xiaoxuan pulled Kong Qingshu to sit down and began to recount the events of the past few days.
Qin Shilei, with his mind focused, continued to recover his primal energy and mental power.
An hour later.
The screams from outside the window had faded.
Qin Shilei's eyes suddenly snapped open. His primal energy and mental power had been restored to their peak.
He turned to look at the two women and happened to hear Su Xiaoxuan ask, "Qingshu, are you and Brother Qin a couple?"
Kong Qingshu quickly denied, "Don't guess, we're just ordinary friends."
Su Xiaoxuan teased, "If you're not a couple, why would he travel so far to bring you to me for treatment, and why would you hug and kiss him as soon as you woke up?"
Her embarrassing actions from earlier being brought up again, Kong Qingshu's fair cheeks instantly turned bright red.
"I... I was confused for a moment and didn't realize it was him."
Kong Qingshu looked at Su Xiaoxuan's smiling eyes and playfully chided, "What are you looking at? I like Qin Shilei, so what? You little brat, you want to see me embarrassed, don't you? I'll tickle you to death."
After saying that, she guiltily glanced back towards the bed.
As she turned, she met Qin Shilei's dark eyes.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
Kong Qingshu once again wished she could dig a hole and bury herself.
Su Xiaoxuan, unaware of the underlying tension, enthusiastically played matchmaker: "Brother Qin, you traveled so far to bring Qingshu to me for treatment, you must have feelings for her in your heart. And Qingshu also loves you."
"You two love each other, why don't you be together openly?"
"It's the apocalypse now, and we might die any day. Why not follow your heart and have a passionate love affair?"
