Reincarnated as a demon from Douluo Continent, guarding peace in the human world.

Chapter 7 Not Much Time Left? Then Die on the Road

"Xiao! Are you there?"

Qian Renxue's gentle voice sounded from behind the door.

Xiao breathed softly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and as his hand slid down, pale red water droplets clung to it.

The inhuman torture he had just endured had made him lose track of time.

His vision was blurry and the pain was still lingering. He managed to stand up, but didn't want to speak.

"Squeak..."

The sound of the door opening rang out.

Footsteps approached quickly, and Qian Renxue came to Xiao's side, helping him up.

"Xiao! What's wrong with you? Why are you like this?" Qian Renxue asked worriedly.

She looked at Xiao, who was soaking wet and almost covered in blood, and felt a pang of sympathy.

Helping Xiao to sit in a chair, Qian Renxue turned to her attendants and instructed, "Summon a healing soul master! And bring up some nutritional supplements..."

"unnecessary."

Xiao gave a curt refusal.

Qian Renxue frowned as she looked at Xiao, "But your injury..."

"unnecessary."

"Also, don't come near me... otherwise, you'll regret it."

Xiao's voice was calm, but it possessed an undeniable power.

Qian Renxue sighed inwardly and stopped her attendants from doing anything.

Looking at Xiao's current state, she didn't know how to feel.

They were initially wary of the other party, but now that the Porcupine Douluo had followed them, they were planning to carry out Emperor Xueye's plan to incite Xiao to clash with the Spirit Temple.

But I never expected that Xiao would fall to this state.

It seems that the massacre in the palace was also a huge burden for Xiao!

Qian Renxue looked at Xiao, who seemed to be rejecting everything around him like a hedgehog, and a pang of heartache inexplicably appeared in her eyes. She said gently, "Xiao, don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you."

"His Majesty did not blame you for what you did in the palace, but those Soul Masters did deserve to die."

"Look outside, all that gold and silver jewelry was given to you last time. His Majesty even bestowed upon you the title of Honorary Earl and the honorary title of Unparalleled National Hero! This honor is second only to those who are offered sacrifices."

Qian Renxue smiled gently, but her eyes were fixed on Xiao.

Xiao's current aura is so weak that she is even worried that Xiao might suddenly die.

Xiao remained silent, his sharp, knife-like eyes now like sheathed swords. In his quiet state, he concealed his sharpness and became a graceful young immortal.

Her detachment from the world and her serene, otherworldly demeanor make it hard to look away.

Qian Renxue was like that; she pursed her lips and started a conversation.

"Xiao, I want to be your friend. You stand up for the common people, even at the risk of offending the royal family. I admire your benevolence very much..." Qian Renxue looked at Xiao gently.

She was serious about this; if she had a better understanding of Xiao, she might even be considering recruiting him now.

Not as Xue Qinghe, but as the young master of the Spirit Hall!

Xiao lowered his eyes and didn't pay attention to Qian Renxue.

The remaining karmic burdens are still raging within my body, but they are no longer as unbearable as they were before.

But we must also do our best to resist.

Xiao stared at the ground without making a sound.

Qian Renxue waited a moment, and seeing that Xiao didn't react, she became a little worried. She reached out and grasped Xiao's wrist. "Xiao, are you still feeling unwell? I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xiao's wrist, which was being held, was suddenly assaulted by karmic obstacles.

A sharp pain erupted, and Xiao gritted his teeth, letting out a muffled groan as he managed to endure the agony!

"!!!" Xiao's face was contorted with rage, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Qian Renxue quickly released her grip, exclaiming in surprise, "Did I hurt you?"

Xiao took a few deep breaths, shook his head, and muttered:

"Their voices often echo in my ears. Roaring, howling, screaming about killing—this is my own choice and retribution, it has nothing to do with you."

Xiao spoke with a hint of self-abandonment.

Having just experienced that terrifying brush with death, Xiao was caught up in the same emotions he had just gone through.

Faced with such suffering, four companions have already perished.

Now that he is the only one left, without the Emperor and without the sound of the flute, he probably won't last much longer.

He only hoped to eliminate as many demons as possible before he died.

To bring peace to the people of this foreign land.

"I want to know, who is the culprit who endangers the common people here?" Xiao suddenly turned to look at Qian Renxue, his eyes incredibly sharp. At this moment, he seemed to have regained his strength.

When Qian Renxue was stared at by that gaze, she was momentarily dazed and suddenly wanted to look away.

He unconsciously uttered the crimes of the Spirit Hall of Heaven Dou City.

"...This is evidence of their crimes, but Xiao, the Spirit Hall is not a weak force. Even our Heaven Dou Empire must be careful in dealing with them."

"You can't act recklessly like you do in the palace. At the very least, you have to wait until you regain your strength..."

"Where are you going?"

Qian Renxue tried to persuade him with kind words, but Xiao had already finished looking at the evidence. His face was cold, and he stood up and walked towards the door.

Qian Renxue followed behind, a helpless expression on her face. "Xiao, you're already in this state, why do you still want to go against the Spirit Hall? With your current strength, you can't do anything, and you might even..."

Xiao ignored her completely and quickly left the National Academy.

Watching his departing figure, Qian Renxue sighed, but she couldn't continue chasing after him. Among her entourage were loyal followers of Emperor Xueye, and she couldn't show any abnormality.

"We can only hope that the Hall Master of the Spirit Hall won't harm Xiao... Xiao's body is just too strong!"

Why are you so persistent? You're clearly seriously injured.

"Going now would mean risking being subdued..."

Qian Renxue was helpless; she simply couldn't persuade Xiao.

……

Meanwhile, in the room of the Hall Master of the Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City, the obese Hall Master, who was as fat as a pig, was blindfolded, lewdly grinning as he reached out to grab a scantily clad beauty.

The beauties let out silvery laughter, and the palace master chuckled, "Beauties, don't run away, don't run away..."

The next second, his two chubby hands touched the Serpent Spear Douluo who had suddenly appeared.

The icy touch immediately made the Hall Master retreat, tearing off his blindfold as he instinctively exclaimed, "Who goes there? How dare they cause trouble at the Spirit Hall?!"

Upon seeing the golden armor worn by the Serpent Spear Douluo, the Palace Master's expression changed, and he hurriedly bowed in respect.

"Your subordinate greets Your Excellency!"

Serpent Spear Douluo sneered, saying, "You pleasure-seeking scoundrel! It seems you've become too accustomed to being bullied and oppressed in Heaven Dou City! You've even neglected your duties and are committing illegal and disorderly acts!"

The fat palace master trembled and dared not utter a sound.

The Serpent Spear Douluo, clearly impatient and extremely displeased with this guy, patiently relayed Qian Renxue's instructions to him, coldly stating, "If you are killed, no one will avenge you!"

The portly temple master repeatedly replied, "Reporting to the elder, I've handled the situation perfectly; he will never find out. Rest assured, I have a foolproof plan..."
