"You..." the female demon soul's hand, pointing at the wolf demon, trembled slightly. She said, "Do you think you're so good-looking? In my eyes, you're just a brat. Killing you is as easy as crushing an ant."
"You're just a demon soul, and you talk about crushing ants? Daydreaming," the wolf demon retorted, reaching out and grabbing the female demon soul's fingers.
"What are you doing?" the female demon soul asked, looking at the wolf demon's hand in surprise.
The wolf demon smiled. "Hand it over, or I'll take it."
"You..."
"Hurry up," the wolf demon said coldly.
The female demon soul snorted and shook off the wolf demon's hand. "If you can catch me, I'll give it to you." With that, she turned and flew away swiftly.
Mu Anxiao saw this and quickly said, "There must be a trap."
The wolf demon's lips curled. He said, turning his head, "If there's no trap, it won't be interesting." After speaking, he quickly pursued the female demon soul.
Mu Anxiao took a step forward.
Feng Qishi stared at the artifact in his hand and asked, "Hu Yuan's past life was a woman, right?"
"Yes," Mu Anxiao nodded.
"A woman," Feng Qishi continued, his eyes still fixed on the artifact in his hand. "A woman using a plain wood spear as an artifact. It's no wonder he's a man in this life, being such a tomboy in the last."
"It suits you," Mu Anxiao said, pointing at Feng Qishi.
Feng Qishi gripped the plain wood spear tighter. "No, this is Hu Yuan's artifact. I need to ask him first. Otherwise, I feel uncomfortable taking his artifact like this."
"Alright, you ask," Mu Anxiao said casually.
"Do you have an artifact?" Feng Qishi asked with curiosity.
"Yes," Mu Anxiao nodded.
"Show it to me," Feng Qishi raised an eyebrow.
Mu Anxiao looked at her hand. "Even if you want to see it, I can't conjure it." A hint of loneliness flickered in her eyes.
Feng Qishi sensed Mu Anxiao's mood and said softly, "Then what is your artifact?"
"Silver rope," Mu Anxiao replied.
Feng Qishi frowned. "Isn't that something used by the Yin Messengers from your place?"
"You know?" Mu Anxiao was surprised.
Feng Qishi's eyes darted. "I was there last time too. You forgot."
Mu Anxiao nodded without thinking. "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot."
"It's alright," Feng Qishi said, smiling. "When we get back, once I've cultivated, I'll give you an artifact too."
"No need," Mu Anxiao shook her head slightly.
"Why? You look down on what I give you?" Feng Qishi put on a mock unhappy expression.
Mu Anxiao shook her head again. "No, I think this is something I should do, and you're not suited for it."
"Why?" Feng Qishi asked again.
Mu Anxiao said, "I am your master. If I were to take something from you, it wouldn't look good."
"Don't you not care about what others think?" Feng Qishi's lips curved. "Why are you suddenly saying this?"
"I can't reconcile it with myself, it has nothing to do with others," Mu Anxiao said.
Feng Qishi was speechless.
Meanwhile, the wolf demon and the female demon soul had exchanged several blows, with no clear winner.
"Your demon arts are really quite lacking," the female demon soul said as she flew above the hospital rooftop.
The wolf demon looked down. "Using human misfortune as demon arts, that's truly despicable."
"If you have the ability, use it too," the female demon soul deliberately said, clenching a mass of dark energy in her hand before launching it fiercely at the wolf demon.
Seeing this, the wolf demon quickly dodged.
The female demon soul's lips curved. "When you used Hu Yuan's soul essence as demon arts, did you ever think about whether you were despicable? Now you're saying that about me." Her eyes turned cold. "Don't you think you're ridiculous!" With that, she unleashed the energy from both her hands towards the wolf demon.
The wolf demon continued to dodge and said, "I always have objectives in what I do. I'm not like you." As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed a mass of dark energy. "So bored." He then directly attacked with the mass of energy.
The female demon soul stared at the wolf demon's actions in astonishment. "How could you possibly catch it?" She dodged away.
The wolf demon said coldly, "I not only have objectives in everything I do, but more importantly, I have purposes. Today, my purpose isn't to harm, but to take your thing." His eyes suddenly glowed red. "I've had enough fun playing with you."
"You..."
Before the female demon soul could utter a word, the wolf demon transformed into a red light and shot towards her. She spun rapidly in place.
In a short while, the female demon soul's hair, which had been tied up, became loose. The wolf demon zipped back to his original position, holding a pill in his hand. "I didn't expect this was made with your demonic energy."
The female demon soul looked at the wolf demon in disbelief, then down at her pouch that had fallen onto the rooftop. "Since you know, return it to me."
"You deliberately said that to Mu Anxiao, didn't you?" the wolf demon said. "Because you knew Mu Anxiao wouldn't obediently hand over her body to you, so you refined this thing with your own demonic energy, right?"
"Do you know what that is?" the female demon soul asked, glaring at the wolf demon.
The wolf demon frowned at the pill, then sniffed it. "Wrong, it smells of human."
"As expected of a wolf, your nose is sharp," the female demon soul said.
The wolf demon asked, "What will happen if I eat this?"
"This is made with my demonic energy and the soul essences of those I've killed. If you eat it, those sins will devour you alive. Eat it, if you dare," the female demon soul said.
The wolf demon looked down at the pill. "You're quite ruthless."
"Ruthless, but I can't be as ruthless as you, a wolf," the female demon soul narrowed her eyes.
"No, you're more ruthless than me," the wolf demon said, looking at the pill. "If I'm not mistaken, after you ate this, the moment you entered Mu Anxiao's body, this thing would flow into Mu Anxiao's body with your soul. Once Mu Anxiao resisted, the energy in this thing would condense into a force that would expel Mu Anxiao's soul from her body, thereby absorbing all the soul essences from her soul. This way, even if she got out, she wouldn't live for more than three days before her soul dispersed," he said. "Am I right, ugly woman?"
"As expected of a learned demon, you could see through this," the female demon soul smiled and extended her hand. "Since you know this thing is useless to you, return it to me. We have no connection."
"If," the wolf demon flew back a distance, "if I give this to you, then I won't be the only powerful demon... demon soul anymore. No, I can't do that." He raised the pill.
"What are you doing?" the female demon soul's eyes widened as she flew closer to the wolf demon.
