"Of course not, the Heavenly Demon Kings would never do such boring things," declared the Tetrahedron Heavenly Demon. "The impulse to erase emotions is left by the ’Liberator.’"
"The Liberator wrote the Holy Prayer, which is the origin of the Heavenly Demon’s life."
"But the Liberator also left a rule within the Holy Prayer."
"Just that one rule."
"To erase all intelligent life on Earth, except for us."
"Your current state is still good, some lower-level Heavenly Demons can’t even perceive the impulse to erase, only thinking it’s their own idea."
Xing Jun frowned, "Then why... can ’Ji’ recruit me?"

Heavenly Demon King ’Ji’ was one of the twelve Heavenly Demon Kings who recruited Xing Jun. Aside from the Heavenly Demon Empress, she stood at the pinnacle of Heavenly Demon life forms.
Tetrahedron Heavenly Demon: "No life in the universe wants to be bound, even we Heavenly Demons are no exception. Therefore, while erasing humanity, Her Highness the Empress is also striving to find a way to break through the Holy Prayer, and isn’t your current situation with Donghua City the result?"
As they spoke, they walked through the base, releasing different colored light waves and splitting parts of their bodies to fly back and forth, inspecting the whole underground base.
Xing Jun continued, "The Holy Prayer, why can’t I feel it?"
"Only Her Highness the Empress has the authority to weave the Holy Prayer!" Tetrahedron Heavenly Demon said calmly, "Her Highness the Empress is our savior. She is our only hope to lead us from bondage to freedom."
Xing Jun nodded, said nothing, but suddenly paused slightly, "Yan was killed, and the guards from Dao School discovered it."
"It seems the situation at Dao School is not as good as we anticipated," Tetrahedron Heavenly Demon’s body suddenly lit up, "Found it... the Twentieth Hexagram."
...
On a crimson cliff, Li Xiuzhu hunched his body and sat on a large rock.
At that moment, he appeared extremely thin and emaciated with hollow cheeks and pale skin, looking like someone who had just recovered from a serious illness, visibly weak.
Annie came from behind and reported, "’Kite’ found a Heavenly Demon near Xiao Pei and killed it together with the guards."
"Heavenly Demon?" Li Xiuzhu frowned, "It seems that Dao School might have been extensively corrupted. However, as long as Jiaojiao is still there, the core of the Three Pure Dao Sect is still intact, so it shouldn’t be a big problem."
"Tell ’Kite’ to be careful of Xiao Pei, she might be compromised," Li Xiuzhu said, rubbing his forehead. "No, have her be cautious of everyone around Xiao Pei. Now that the Heavenly Demons can subjugate humans, they’re like ants, and finding one ant means there might be a whole nest nearby."
Just then, another young girl came flying from afar, shouting as she flew, "Brother Li! Brother Li! It’s done! I’ve succeeded!"
Li Xiuzhu smiled at the approaching young girl, "What’s done?"
"That... computer," the young girl shouted. "I fixed it!"
"Really?!" Li Xiuzhu’s eyes lit up instantly, "Quick, take me to it."
...
The next day, Zhou Bai got up early from bed, starting his day of vigorous training. He and Christina had had a rare good night’s sleep after being busy the previous day.
Realizing the dreadful state of humanity and possibly the large number of Heavenly Demon infiltrators, Zhou Bai felt a great weight of pressure, forcing him to train hard, striving to become stronger.
But as soon as he opened his eyes, Zhou Bai felt his body tightly embraced.
Turning his head helplessly, he saw Elsa’s little face pressed against his shoulder, carrying a mysterious smile.
"Silly child." Zhou Bai pushed Elsa away, looking at her drowsy appearance and said, "How many times have I told you ’Elsa’, don’t hug me in your sleep, your drool is all over my clothes."
"I’m sorry." Elsa apologized shyly. "But Zhou Bai, you are so warm."
"Haha, with all these muscles, it’s normal for you to feel warm," Zhou Bai said. "However, there’s a difference bewteen men and women, Elsa. You might still be young, but you should be careful and not always hug me in your sleep."
"If you feel cold," Zhou Bai thought and then said, "You could turn into a dog, and it would be warm."
"Oh." Elsa’s eyes suddenly brightened, happily looking at Zhou Bai, "Zhou Bai! If I turn into a dog, can I hug you in sleep? There’s a difference between humans and dogs, right?"
Zhou Bai hesitated slightly as he pondered. Just then, Christina slapped Elsa on the back of the head and shouted, "Stupid dog! Keep blabbering and I’ll make you sleep on the floor every day."
Zhou Bai looked at Elsa’s aggrieved face and patted her on the head, "Elsa, you stay home and wait for me to come back, I’ll bring you a big bone later."
Elsa’s eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course, it’s true. I’ve recently found some angel investors, so we won’t have to worry about food and drinks anymore."
Zhou Bai left the dorm and first arrived at Zheng Wentian’s doorstep. Seeing him sneakily leave early, he greeted him, "Morning, Old Zheng."
Zheng Wentian’s body shuddered, turned around, and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Me, Zhou Bai, points."
...
Zhou Shan stepped out of his door and saw Zhou Bai already waiting in front of him.
He nodded and took the points card that Zhou Bai handed him.
Then, Zhou Bai said, "Teacher, let’s go have breakfast together. Could you lend me some points while you’re at it?"
A flash of anger crossed Zhou Shan’s eyes, "What did you say?"
Zhou Bai smiled, "I see there are still over five thousand points on your card, I just need another 100 points for a meal. Convenient, isn’t it?"
...
"After eating Zheng Wentian, eat Zhou Shan, and after Zhou Shan, eat Xiao Pei."
Zhou Bai then arrived at Xiao Pei’s door, knocked, and pushed the door open.
Xiao Pei looked at Zhou Bai with surprise and said, "Zhou Bai? What brings you here?" However, deep inside, she was extremely displeased, thinking, ’What is he doing here? If not for him, I could have completed the reincarnation ceremony in a month, but now it only adds complications.’
Zhou Bai said, "Xiao Pei, I came to borrow some points from you." He couldn’t help but feel a bit astounded by her beauty again.
’Such a beautiful young girl, why would she side with the Heavenly Demon?’
"From me, borrow points?" Xiao Pei was shocked. She looked at her own legs, which were now gone, then back at Zhou Bai.
Since she had become disabled, many people had come to see her, all saying various things. But asking for points, Zhou Bai was the first.
’Asking a disabled person for points?’ Xiao Pei furiously thought, ’Is he heartless?’
Zhou Bai thought for a moment, "How about I just borrow 200?"
As he assessed Xiao Pei’s unhappy face, seemingly about to refuse, he quickly said, "180, let’s settle on 180."
"150?"
"120! 120 should be okay, right?"
Xiao Pei softly smiled, "I really don’t have any points, I can’t lend you any. Maybe try asking someone else, Zhou Bai?"
Zhou Bai, "100."
"How would I lend them to you?"
Leaving Xiao Pei feeling like exploding yet finding everything oddly normal, Zhou Bai cheerfully walked out of the room, looking at the card in his hand, "Heh, women."
He had earned several hundred points early in the morning, all of which he exchanged for laziness value, increasing his laziness value by over 6000 in an instant.
He looked at the auxiliary panel, where his laziness value had now reached nearly thirty thousand points.
"Ah, once I’ve exchanged all my 2400 points (monthly received points), not only will it be enough to unlock "Ugly Picture," but it will also be enough for star points."
"Indeed, diligent cultivation is the only path to growing stronger," Zhou Bai lamented as he shook his head.
