Chapter 771: 323: Evil Doers Shall Eat Evil!
Outer Domain Demon Lord, Let’s End This (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_3 Chapter 771: 323: Evil Doers Shall Eat Evil!
Outer Domain Demon Lord, Let’s End This (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_3 At this moment, even if we had not yet investigated any genuine evidence, even if we really had evidence of Li Xue’s murder, who would dare to hold her accountable?
“So …
it’s not that the patrolling cultivators in the city didn’t notice, but once they did, they were terrified.
Some lower-ranking executives in Evergreen City didn’t dare to question me, hence everything was suppressed and kept secret…
Who will Martial Uncle Su expose?
...
No matter who he exposes, ultimately it still concerns me…”
Chen Dengming suddenly felt that he might have become what he despised.
Although he did not oppress or bully others with his power, his family committed evil deeds because of his power.
The Longevity Sect is truly a behemoth, so massive that the hundreds of thousands of cultivators living in Evergreen City and Longevity Island were merely its vassals.
As the Sect Leader, he rarely ventured outside due to his long-term closed-door cultivation.
As such, it was indeed difficult for him to be aware of some things happening under his feet.
Whatever happened in Evergreen City, even if it had something to do with his family, if it was deliberately suppressed and Li Xue disguised herself well, it certainly was difficult to find out.
Like those demon cultivators in the other sects, they were only discovered when their demonic nature suddenly took hold causing them to go crazily committing murders.
Before that, it was hard to notice the cultivators who had been controlled by demonic power invading their spirits.
His divine sense continued to deepen, ‘seeing’ that new tenants moved into those few courtyards later on.
But those new tenants were killed by Li Xue in various ways.
This state of Li Xue wasn’t normal lately.
She would often wake up suddenly at night while Chen Jing was sleeping soundly and go out to kill.
Upon waking in the daytime, she was still the gentle and experienced wife and mother to their child.
The locations where she murdered people kept repeating around those few courtyards as if it were predestined.
She seemed to believe in her mind that anyone who lived there and supposedly defamed her deserved to die, regardless of whether new tenants moved in afterward.
She would even grind their bodies to dust, leaving little trace to be found!
As a result, the executive in charge of this city district probably had no choice but to remove these few houses from the rental information.
This made the houses deserted for many years, creating an appearance of desolateness.
“Evergreen City has been under the jurisdiction of Elder Gongshu Zai over the years.
Issues related to city planning and resource utilization would definitely be recorded in documents and handed over to Elder Gongshu for review.
Wasn’t he alerted by the vacancies of these residential units?
Or…”
As Chen Dengming pondered this, he sighed inwardly and continued delving into the depths of Li Xue’s spirit.
As he invaded her spirit like this, gradually eliminating the demonic nature, it seemed as if Li Xue was following his lead, reviewing memories of the past.
Only then did she realize what she had done every night and how she had implicated and killed innocent people.
Her heart began to show signs of remorse.
This was a favorable sign.
If her nature could return to normal, perhaps the deep-rooted demonic nature within her could be eradicated, potentially saving Li Xue without him having to risk drawing the attention of the Outer Domain Devil Lord.
However, the scene that appeared in Li Xue’s memory in the depths of her spirit startled Chen Dengming.
He wanted to stop the recall of this memory, but it was one step too late.
The transition of thought is fleeting.
If one were to reckon what moves faster than light in this world, it would certainly be the speed of thought.
In that instant when Chen Dengming was too late to stop it.
He sees in the past recollections, another late-night scene emerges.
Li Xue leaves home mysteriously and wanders again to those few desolate courtyards.
This aimless wandering, which was reminiscent of sleepwalking, was the manifestation of demonic nature’s control over the spirit at night.
Driven by a deep-seated grudge and obsession in her spirit, the host under control of the demonic nature would often come to certain places and do specific things.
Demonic outrages would suddenly break out until the demonic nature was accumulated to a point that it could no longer be suppressed, or some stimulating factor caused a surge in demonic power.
This continual wandering at night had been maintained by Li Xue for many years.
Given her strength as a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, unless there were cultivators of the same realm monitoring her day and night, it would be challenging to trace her nocturnal departure.
After it became clear that the courtyards were deserted, she would unconsciously wander there and leave on her own if she couldn’t find any targets in the house to release her resentment on.
As a result, her resentment and demonic nature accumulated day by day, becoming deeply rooted.
In the memory fragment, Li Xue should have left without finding a target to vent her hatred on.
However, this time, there was a twist.
A person who shouldn’t have appeared in the courtyard, a close person who noticed Li Xue’s abnormality and hid in the house in advance to observe secretly, was discovered by Li Xue, who had even higher cultivation base, and was killed.
His body was reduced to ashes.
This person was none other than Li Xue, who had returned to normal during the day.

She had been desperately searching for many years, yet she had been unable to find her lost kin…
“Li Rong!”
A bolt of lightning streaked across Chen Dengming’s mind, filling him with grave apprehension, silently proclaiming danger.
“No!”
Similarly, recollecting the flash of this memory in her spirit made Li Xue suddenly tremble, letting out a heart-wrenching scream.
Her anguished voice was full of pain and regret.
The flesh clump filled with demonic power held in her hands, already withered and silent, suddenly swelled and wriggled again.
Sharp flesh buds even sprouted from the heart of the flesh clump, drilling into Li Xue, desperate to return to its original body and continue drawing power.
Driven by hatred, she had hunted those who harbored resentment against her, day and night.
However, she ended up hunting down her own father, both blinded and deceived by the demonic nature, remaining ignorant the whole time.
Now that she suddenly knew the truth, Li Xue, who was gradually returning to her true self, was on the brink of her transformation into a demon once again.
“Outer Domain Devil Lord!”
A flash akin to silver lightning erupted within Chen Dengming’s frosty gaze.
“You’ve caused no small measure of harm!!”
Rage, rage, rage, rage, rage, rage, rage!
An unprecedented fury erupted within Chen Dengming’s spirit, shaking his very soul.
This strong anger immediately set off the raging emotion in his heart, making the crumpled flesh clump that was seeking a source of power to restore its demonic nature instantly attracted.
“Ah!
——”
Suddenly, it dislodged from Li Xue’s hands, let out a sharp noise like a baby’s cry, and its resentful eyes seemed to have found an opportunity.
It headed straight for the cracks of Chen Dengming’s emotional upheaval.
But just as the flesh clump drew near, Chen Dengming, whose eyes had previously been filled with rage, regained his clarity.
His gaze was cold and dignified, and full of silver light.
Water arrows made of raging seawater suddenly flew out from the surrounding waves, tearing the air with friction and piercing towards their target instantly.
“Splatter, splatter, splatter!”
Without a chance to evade, the demonic flesh clump was suddenly pinned to the ground beneath Chen Dengming’s foot.
A towering figure radiated blue energy, epitomizing spiritual might, descended from the sky.
At its forehead, a blue flame-like light flickered, the glow in its eyes emanating a strong belief similar to incense faith.
Heart of the Ocean—Incarnation of Faith!
Upon the appearance of this Incarnation of Faith, the pinned flesh clump jerked as though it had received a strong stimulus.
Its bulbous eyes filled with increasing hatred as it let out a piercing howl, its demonic nature rapidly escalating.
A vast and evil conscience, seemingly attracted, swiftly descended.
“Come!”
The eyes of Chen Dengming, bursting with cold silvery light, were filled with murderous intent as he transformed into his Human Immortal form.
A dangerous, elusive aura emanated from him, coinciding with the flurry of his silver hair.
The Outer Domain Devil Lord, the source of all this sin, it’s time to put an end to this.
“This damn lad, wherever he goes, trouble always seems to follow…”
Meanwhile, in his Sea of Consciousness, Dongfang Huayuan too sensed the strong demonic power descending…
