In this space without sun and moon, no one knew how long had passed.

Fu Huaiyu woke up in the dim light. She felt like she was lying on a damp ground. Her skin was smooth and sticky, and her whole body seemed wet.　　

She shook her groggy head and held out her hand. She was shocked to find that the color of her entire arm had changed to a weird slate gray, and even her nails had become disgusting dark green.　　

She wanted to stand up, but her legs were weak and she could hardly feel the hardness of her bones. As if she understood something, she trembled, turned back in horror, saw her legs, and finally made a sharp scream.　　

Below her waist, her legs had been glued together and turned into a translucent mollusk, which was wetly pulled on the ground.　　

“No, it’s impossible,” Fu Huaiyu crawled forward two steps and sadly found herself starting to flick the lower body and tail naturally.　　

“Look, it’s really beautiful,” Ah Xiao sat in front of her.　　

He had lost his youthful and handsome appearance, and looked old.　　

The dark and dull world was gone, and the feathered girl Xiaoyan, with her black wings gathered, stood silently behind him.　　

Zhong Lixiao stretched out his skinny hands and lifted Fu Huaiyu’s tearful face, “Now you can’t be a human being, and you can’t even become a real demon. No matter who gets the final victory of the war between men and demons either way, you can only live in hiding like the waste you most despise.”

He bent down and looked at Fu Huaiyu, “How is it, isn’t it a very beautiful life?”

Fu Huaiyu burst into tears. She was trembling, “No…I don’t want it.”

“Well, don’t you? But this is the fate that you imposed on us at the beginning!” Ah Xiao’s fingers forced Fu Huaiyu’s cheeks to be covered with wrinkles and age spots.　　

“I used to beg you to let me go? But has anyone heard my request once? Now I will let you taste the pain we had at that time.”　　

He shook his hand hard, “Go away, far away. Like the ones you most hate and live a humble life in the gutter like a mouse.”　　

Fu Huaiyu stumbled forward with her wet body crawling away.　　

Xiaoyan turned her face and watched the demon just like herself go on a journey.　　

Her face was covered with dense black feathers, and only a face was exposed in the middle. The clean and pure appearance did not match with the huge feathers. It was human-like but unacceptable.

“Should we just let her go Brother Axiao?”

“Xiaoyan, sometimes there are things more terrible than death when living is the biggest torment. But don’t be afraid, I will give them the taste of the same pain we suffered. All the people in this world will suffer.”

After the catastrophe, the Spring City resumed its past liveliness.

The large number of people stranded in the city because of the cold weather made the market more prosperous than ever.

The city wall was being repaired urgently. The construction was extremely difficult due to the freezing cold. But the incomplete wall must be repaired as soon as possible.

A huge pot of bricks of several hundred catties fell accidentally from the slippery high wall due to the slipping of the rope during the lifting process. The worker on the wall exclaimed and watched the huge stones from a dozen meters. The high wall of the building smashed the scaffolding all the way and rolled toward the leader of the construction worker at the lower level.　　

Unexpectedly, the huge stone of one hundred or two hundred pounds suddenly stopped stiffly in the air halfway, turned around in thin air, and slowly fell back to where it should have been. Almost no one noticed that there was a faint yellow sand in the air, which had disappeared without a trace until the people had responded.　　

The horrified construction staff knew that a high-level ability holder helped. The person was able to mobilize hundreds of pounds of boulders that fell from the sky, but they didn’t appear.

They looked around and wanted to express their gratitude.

But the market was not far away as usual, people still walked through, and no one seemed to pay attention to the thrilling scene that just happened. They couldn’t find where the person was hiding.　　

In front of a small fruit stand on the side of the city wall, a man wearing a silver mask bent over to pick the frozen pear in front of him, and quietly retracted his arm behind his back.
