Is it really that important whether she is a demon or a human? Just because she is a demon, do you want to void all the years we spent together, and then slam her heart to the ground and trample it with your feet?! Why not?
What? Why?!
A mouthful of blood spurted out of the girl's mouth, and the moment it was sprinkled on the ground, it corroded the green grass into withered yellow——
"He is indeed a complete monster! A guy like you only deserves to live with a guy who is neither human nor ghost!"
The merciless sarcasm was like a sharp slap on her face, mocking her ignorance and even more so her stupidity.
She thought that Chen Ruo was different. After being together for so long, he would have some feelings for her, and he would not abandon her at the most critical moment because of a mere identity. Now that she thought about it, her idea was so naive and ridiculous.
!
The so-called separation between humans and monsters is such a sad and profound thing. Even if it is hidden deeply enough, no matter how high it is built, it will collapse the moment the truth is ruthlessly revealed.
After working hard for so long, it was still in vain. She was already tired... All the prejudice and hatred that Chen Ruo had suppressed burst out at this moment.
The people from the Demon Hunting Association rushed forward again, but Yaoyao had already made a decision at this moment - she stabbed her chest directly with her sharp claws, and the people from the Demon Hunting Association were also struck by the girl's
Zhenzhan was frightened. Her chest was completely pierced by her own palms, and black airflow was released around her trembling body. What was even more terrifying was that the facial features on her face disappeared at the moment when her fingers and claws merged into her body.
It has become an empty piece of skin.
"Exchange my true appearance for my strength, my true blood for my eternal life!!!"
At that moment, Dongfang Yaoyao lost his face, but in exchange he gained the posture that the Face-stealing Demon should truly have.
In the face-stealing demon clan, there are two ways to practice. One is to abandon one's own face and constantly devour other people's faces to quickly increase strength. However, this method will cause the body to age quickly. The more it devours, the more it ages.
Quickly, the second type absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like ordinary monsters, and then continuously accumulates it to climb towards the side of the monsters and immortals.
As the most gentle descendant of the Face-stealing Demon, the Dongfang family will expel any clan members who practice the first path for serious crimes that violate clan rules. Dongfang Yaoyao has also been growing up under this kind of education, but even if he knows he can't do something, he can't do it.
It means she won't. If possible, Dongfang Yaoyao really doesn't want to take this step under any circumstances, because once you step into this evil path of eating human blood, it will basically be the same as eternal damnation.
"What are you doing standing still? Come on!!"
The man was completely panicked at this moment, and Dongfang Yaoyao had already completed the sacrifice of her strength. She did not hurt anyone. What she sacrificed was her original face. It is precisely because of this that Dongfang Yaoyao later
She did not continue to practice the first path, so that she could have the conditions and qualifications to start a new life.
The girl's body grew suddenly, and she soon turned into the appearance of a mature woman. The scary thing was that her face was still empty, looking extremely weird.
"Now...you have...no room for regret!!"
The shadow under Dongfang Yaoyao's feet seemed to have heard the call of its master, and slowly climbed up from the ground. The black mist wrapped around the woman's graceful and perfect body, and finally rushed out as if it had become conscious.
It entangled the bodies of those gangsters and drained their vitality in an instant. In the blink of an eye, the people who had just been alive turned into dust and fell to the ground together with their clothes.
The man wanted to say something to beg for mercy, but he saw the faceless monster slowly pull out the palm inserted into his chest, and then the flesh and blood proliferated, leaving a scar that could not be healed at all.
This is also the price, including her original face, for trusting mortals.
But she doesn't regret it. One face changes her life and she remembers a lesson. That's enough!
The black mist wrapped around her body had not yet completely formed. She stroked the smart black energy lovingly, and when she raised her hand, the black energy rushed out according to her will, and then turned all the enemies into
Powerless dust.
After completing the strangulation of these people, Dongfang Yaoyao's strength was completely exhausted, but the black energy was extremely strong at this moment. The flesh and blood of these guys was the best tonic for him to regenerate.
Dongfang Yaoyao's figure looked lonely and desolate under the bloody moonlight, and the black air caressed her face, and she seemed to be comforted——
"I only have you left now..."
And all this did not end with the annihilation of these pursuers. Dongfang Yaoyao's whereabouts have been unknown since then, and the strange deaths of the men in black have also spread in the town, and the whole town is filled with a sense of danger.
Weird atmosphere.
Chen Ruo has been looking for the missing Dongfang Yaoyao since then. He has searched every corner he can think of.
He was very frightened, but he had to relate the death of the men in black to the departure of Dongfang Yaoyao, and he secretly felt that there must be something wrong with the medicine those people gave him, and he was the one.
The person who hurriedly cooked the medicine that was a potential threat to Yaoyao and made her take it...
Chen Ruo's unreasonable guilt and confusion made Chen Ruo suffer internally, and made him curious about Dongfang Yaoyao's true identity.
The way those men in black died was obviously not the work of mortals. If those people really came here for Yaoyao...and her counterattack caused the current situation...how should he face her?
He really doesn't care, doesn't care if she is a non-human being, doesn't care how long she can stay with him, doesn't care if she will leave sooner or later, he is really grateful to have a girl in his life, no matter what, she makes him monotonous
Life has color and rich meanings.
Chen Ruo clutched a small bottle in his hand, which was the bottle into which Yaoyao would drop a drop of blood every year on his birthday.
He had long since forgotten his birthday, but the girl remembered her own and wanted the boy to celebrate it with her.
"If you don't remember your birthday, let's celebrate it on the same day! We give each other gifts, and there's no need for a big meal!"
The girl endured the pain and bit her finger open, then put it to the mouth of the vial and squeezed the blood in bit by bit.
Chen Ruo asked her several times what the meaning of this was, but she just said it was a gift she gave him on the day they parted.
"It would be meaningless if the secret of the gift was known first!" The girl plugged the bottle mysteriously, and no one knew what method she used. Chen Ruo couldn't open the bottle no matter how hard she tried - "Wait until I'm not around
I will tell you the day I am with Aruo!"
The girl's smile was so beautiful and bright that he would never forget it, but now he was the only one left in the empty cave - she finally left without saying goodbye.
Chen Ruo felt a little disappointed. He had clearly been accustomed to living alone before meeting Dongfang Yaoyao. Now he was just getting back to his original shape... But why... was he feeling so uncomfortable?
A drop of clear tears slid down Chen Ruo's mottled cheeks, and then more and more. The boy seemed to have turned back into the boy on the rainy night many years ago. His encounter with her saved a down-and-out girl, and even saved a lonely man.
soul.
Holding the quilt covering her, Chen Ruo sobbed——
"Yaoyao... where have you been... come back, please... I will correct whatever mistakes you made... you come back..."
The cave is empty, and the heart of the young man is also empty.
But his sincere desire not only failed to bring about the girl's return, but instead brought about a nightmare.
Not long after, another pair of men and horses rushed into the town. This time, a man with the same terrifying scarred face came down. After he dismounted, he immediately rushed towards the mountain. The people around him felt the murderous aura in the man, and they all stopped.
If you dare to step forward, it would be a sin to even look at each other.
After they went up the mountain, they immediately walked towards the cave where Dongfang Yaoyao once lived, but only the young man who was still immersed in a sense of loss was left there.
Chen Ruo stood on the cliff with a basket of medicine on his back in despair, looking at the riverside and grassland where he and Yaoyao had played together, and the sourness in his heart rose to the tip of his nose - he was indeed a evil star, who killed his parents and sister.
He can't even keep the girl he picked up.
He really has nothing left now...
"Boy, if you just stand there stupidly, that mask-stealing demon won't come back."
Chen Ruo turned around suddenly, and the man saw his face covered with scars, and actually laughed——
"I didn't expect your face to be as good as mine! That face-stealing demon wouldn't show any concern when looking at such a face day and night?"
The man is telling the truth. It is precisely because of the same ugliness that he can understand the hardship and pain.
"She won't...never do it from beginning to end."
The man was also stunned. He couldn't see the falseness in the young man's eyes and could only assume that what he said was the truth. But he didn't have the time to care about these things now, so he put a knife directly on Chen Ruo's face.
On the neck——
"Where did the Masked Demon go?!"
Chen Ruo just smiled bitterly - she was indeed a demon... But was this really the reason why she left him?
You don’t believe him that much? Don’t believe he doesn’t care whether she is a human or a monster?
"I still want to ask you," Chen Ruo took a deep breath, eyes brewing with sharpness, "Did you tamper with the medicine I gave Yaoyao?"
The man also sneered——
"You already have the answer to this question, don't you?"
The young man looked at the joking expression on the man's face and felt a chill in his heart...
Sure enough, he was too impatient and harmed her!
"I'll tell you the truth, that medicine is the catalyst that stimulates the demon power in her body. Originally, after the medicine was taken by the monster, it would not only reveal its prototype, but also greatly stimulate its true nature. The fact that you can survive until now means that the mask-stealing monster is here.
In the end I would rather run away than hurt you!"
