Chapter 381: We Didn't Laugh, Indeed!

Upon the long street, incessant cries of demons echoed.

Lu Heng, who, in the end, had not yet reached the innate realm, found it challenging to inflict harm upon these two innate demons by means of conventional magical techniques. He could only rely on the Requiem Seal to gradually erode and annihilate the souls of these malevolent creatures.

However, the piercing and mournful cries of these two demons attracted unexpected individuals.

"Who is wailing there?"

In the instant when the voice of a woman resounded, the long street suddenly fell into silence.

Lu Heng, who was emanating an aura of lifelessness, instinctively halted his movements.

And under the Requiem Seal, the two demonic souls that had been relentlessly battered and smashed by the sweeping waves of deathly light, their bodies covered in cracks, on the verge of shattering at any moment, finally found a moment of respite.

They huddled in the corner, filled with an immense fear as they gazed upon the madman of darkness before them, and the crimson-clad woman who appeared suddenly not far away, unaware of what had occurred.

At the end of the long street, Lian Cangqing, adorned in a crimson garb, appeared less composed than the two demonic beings.Rread latest chapters at n/ov(e)lbin(.)co/m

Upon catching sight of the lifeless Lu Heng, her eyebrows furrowed instantly, her countenance filled with astonishment and anger.

"The Heavenly Demon Lord!"

On the long street, the chilly gusts of wind howled incessantly.

With fury in her eyes, Lian Cangqing, locked her gaze upon Lu Heng, gritted her teeth and uttered the words, "You... you haven't died?!"

Upon the long street, echoed the laughter of a woman gone mad.

"Hahaha... Heaven aids me too! Heaven aids me too! If you haven't died by the hands of Lu Heng, it shall be my duty to slay you, you scoundrel! Hahaha..."

Amidst the hysterical laughter of the woman in red, the two demonic beings in the corner grew increasingly terrified in their expressions.

It's done. Another lunatic...

Upon witnessing Lian Cangqing's intense reaction, Lu Heng's heart skipped a beat, and he hastily responded, "You've mistaken me, I am not the Heavenly Demon Lord!"

Lian Cangqing, however, sneered repeatedly and said, "You exude an aura of death, coupled with your persistent deception... You say you are not the Heavenly Demon Lord? Do you take me for a fool?"

"If you claim not to be the Heavenly Demon Lord," Lian Cangqing said, "then I shall give you a chance. Unveil your deception and let me see your true form! If you are not the Heavenly Demon Lord, I will immediately let you go!"

Lian Cangqing's gaze fixedly locked onto Lu Heng, who stood on the long street.

The questioning from Lian Cangqing left Lu Heng feeling helpless.

He said, "The Heavenly Demon Lord has not been annihilated by me, but rather sealed within a divine demon burial ground, alongside numerous ancient demons. It was purely by accident that I obtained the 'Demon Sutra' when I mistakenly entered that burial ground. I truly have no connection with the Heavenly Demon Lord."

Lu Heng spoke the truth, but little did he expect that Lian Cangqing, upon hearing his words, would suddenly burst into a contemptuous laughter.

She said, "The Divine Demon Tomb is the Emperor's burial ground for countless beings, and it is an absolute dead place. It wouldn't be surprising if the Heavenly Demon Lord were buried within it. However, for you to enter that tomb and still come out alive? Do you take me for a fool to be deceived?"

Lian Cangqing's voice was filled with anger, "Tell me! How did you acquire the 'Demon Sutra'? Where exactly is that scoundrel, the Heavenly Demon Lord? If you don't provide a clear explanation today, I assure you, you will beg for death but it will be denied to you!"

Amidst the chilly gusts of wind, Lian Cangqing approached Lu Heng directly.

It was evidently an eruption of her anger that had reached its limit, no longer able to be restrained.

Upon witnessing this situation, Lu Heng felt a deep sense of helplessness, realizing that words alone could no longer bring calmness to this woman who resembled a madwoman.

He took a step back, saying, "Xiao Ai, the Heavenly Thunder Sword."

With a casual remark, Lian Cangqing, who was originally furious, instantly retreated several meters, maintaining a safe distance while assuming a defensive stance.

"Very well! Today, I shall have the pleasure of experiencing your... Lu Heng!!!"

The woman's hysterical roar of fury reverberated throughout half of the city.

As Lian Cangqing stepped back, creating distance and assuming a defensive posture, Lu Heng, who had assumed a sword stance, swiftly and without looking back, fled with Xiao Ai.

In a blink of an eye, the two of them vanished at the end of the street, their whereabouts unknown.

This scene drove Lian Cangqing into a furious frenzy.

However, within this peculiar city, she found herself unable to easily pursue the scent like she could in the real world.

This time, losing the trail meant truly losing it.

Lian Cangqing, who had lost her target of hatred, clenched her fist slightly and remained silent for a while. Then, she slowly turned her head towards the two demonic spirits huddled in the corner.

She said in a cold voice, "Do you find it amusing?"

In the corner, the two demonic spirits huddled and trembled, instantly freezing in place.

They weren't laughing at all!

However, the woman in the crimson attire had already begun to approach them slowly.

At that moment, the two demonic spirits were enveloped by an immense and desperate shadow...
