"Don't kill me, please, don't kill me," Mu Long pleaded desperately.
The fake Lin Yan remained unmoved, his grip tightening on Mu Long's neck. "Your grandfather died very peacefully back then, but... the residual poison in his body required a lot of my demonic arts to clear. You're a cripple now, but you're young and strong, so it won't take much of my demonic art. Come on." With that, he began to cast his spell.
Seeing this, Lin Yan quickly shouted, "Don't do this."
The fake Lin Yan heard him and, as if on cue, directed the accumulated demonic energy towards Lin Yan, engulfing him in its glow. Even then, he continued to cry out, "No, don't kill him." xxs壹贰
Outside.
The wolf demon crossed its arms, leaning against a swaying pillar. It looked down at the dog soul cowering at its feet and said, "This is not what I expected."
The dog soul let out a yelp.
"The vine demon seems to favor these crooked demonic arts. It seems," the wolf demon shook its head slightly, "that it has a strong connection with the vine demon."
As Lin Yan's bodyguard, he had been following Lin Yan since his capture. He had stayed hidden, waiting for an opportunity to clearly expose the fake Lin Yan's true nature.
Patience paid off, and an opportunity presented itself. The fake Lin Yan had finally revealed his villainous facade in front of Lin Yan.
The dog soul nudged the wolf demon's leg with its paw.
The wolf demon looked down at the pleading dog eyes, a smirk playing on its lips. "You're quite kind-hearted, but I have no intention of saving the ghost who brought you here."
Upon hearing the wolf demon's words, the dog soul withdrew its paw.
Wolf Demon: "Disappointed?"
The dog soul turned its back.
The wolf demon gazed at the back of the dog soul's head, then glanced at the dilapidated door blocking its view. It lowered its head and said, "I can help, but you have to tell me about Lin Yan's condition." Worried that the dog soul might not understand, it emphasized, "I'm talking about the one with the hole in his stomach."
The dog soul turned back, tilting its head up and barking twice at the wolf demon.
Hearing the barks, the wolf demon quickly crouched down, clamping its jaws shut. "Don't bark, or the imposter inside will hear us, and it'll be over."
The dog soul stared at the wolf demon, unmoving.
Inside, the fake Lin Yan, about to attack Lin Yan, heard the dog soul's barks. He paused, then looked at the fleeting figure of the female ghost who had just rushed out, and quickly followed.
Outside, the wolf demon saw that the dog soul seemed intelligent and released its grip. Just as it was about to continue its interrogation, the female ghost appeared behind it. "What are you doing?"
Hearing her, the wolf demon sighed and turned to look at the female ghost's anxious expression, its lips curling. "I'm not doing anything." It then turned back to the dog soul, "I told you not to bark, but you barked anyway. See, you attracted a ghost." It patted the dog's head.
The female ghost's voice was angry. "Who told you to hit it?"
The wolf demon, hearing the questioning tone of the female ghost, grinned and stood up. "I'm not hitting it, I'm just gently patting its head."
"You twist words."
"Yes, say whatever you want."
With things having come to this, the wolf demon decided not to hide its intentions any longer. It reasoned that if the dog soul's barks could draw out the female ghost, then the fake Lin Yan was bound to come out and investigate as well.
Therefore, after saying this, it deliberately ignored her and looked at the still and silent door.
As expected, the next second, the fake Lin Yan stepped over the threshold and emerged. "It's you." He recognized the wolf demon at once.
Wolf Demon: "Villain." He deliberately provoked the fake Lin Yan.
The fake Lin Yan sneered upon hearing this. "Since you know, then you're not leaving."
"You dare to do it but not say it, you're truly a coward." As the wolf demon turned as if to flee, the dog soul bit onto its shoe. Wuyou
The fake Lin Yan, who had already started to move, halted his step the moment the dog soul bit the wolf demon. "It seems it doesn't want you to escape."
The wolf demon had intended to use this moment to contend with the fake Lin Yan, to show him how strong it was.
Now, it seemed that was unrealistic.
"Let go," it said, feeling no pain. It looked down at the dog soul with a helpless expression.
The dog soul braced its hind legs firmly on the ground, its front legs planted, biting down hard on the wolf demon's boot. Growling sounds of gnawing occasionally came from its mouth.
At this moment, the wolf demon was truly grateful for its habit of wearing oversized shoes. Otherwise, its foot would surely have been bitten through by this dog soul. Even if that were to happen, it wouldn't feel any pain, but the scene would not be a pleasant one.
"..." The female ghost watched her dog soul, saying nothing.
The fake Lin Yan chuckled.
Hearing the fake Lin Yan's laughter, the wolf demon felt a sudden surge of annoyance, clenching its fist slightly. It said sternly, "I told you to let go, or I'll make you pay."
The hidden meaning of these words was: I'll help you.
The dog soul understood the wolf demon's intent from its agitated tone and promptly released its bite.
Seeing this, the wolf demon gasped and turned to face the fake Lin Yan, who continued to mock it. "Since you've invited me, I'll go inside with you."
"Your body is quite good," the fake Lin Yan suddenly said.
The wolf demon frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
"It means nothing. Come, let's go inside." The fake Lin Yan made a gesture, stepping aside, indicating for the wolf demon to enter first.
The wolf demon smirked at the fake Lin Yan's feigned politeness, glanced at the dog soul and the female ghost, and then entered.
The fake Lin Yan smiled down, turned to the dog soul, and said, "Stay here, don't come in. If you hear anything, bark."
The dog soul tucked its tail, not daring to make a sound.
The female ghost, worried that the fake Lin Yan might harm the dog soul, replied for it, "It understands."
"That's good," the fake Lin Yan said, not even looking at the female ghost. He glared fiercely at the dog soul and then turned to enter first.
After he went in, the female ghost hurried to the dog soul, crouched down, and stroked its head. "I won't let anything happen to you."
The dog soul rubbed its head against the female ghost's arm.
The female ghost asked, "You mean, you did that on purpose?"
The dog soul met the female ghost's eyes.
Seeing this, the female ghost understood again. "That demon is helping us?" she whispered.
The dog soul couldn't help but yelp.
Hearing this, the female ghost hurriedly called out, "Yes, if something happens later, just bark like this. Good boy." She then stood up, gave the dog soul a faint smile, and said softly, "Don't move."
The dog soul heard her and leaned against the pillar.
Inside.
The fake Lin Yan paid no attention to the sounds from the female ghost outside. On the contrary, just as he had done with Lin Yan, he fixed the wolf demon in place beside Lin Yan.
The moment the wolf demon entered, Lin Yan's eyes widened and had not returned to normal since. "How did you get here?" He tried to find the wolf demon with his peripheral vision.
The wolf demon did not deliberately move its body, staying close to the wall. It stared directly at the fake Lin Yan, who had retracted his hands, and said, ignoring Lin Yan, "I can say that you've captured the right person."
