The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

Lin Du carried Hu You in one hand and held a fan in the other. He showed no mercy, killing one person with each step. His icy power was extremely deadly, freezing everything in its path. One fan froze the ground, another slashed it away.

The dark blue brocade robe, already stained with demonic blood, was heavy and made even more so as it tumbled through the air, making Lin Du appear like a heavy iron weapon. Wherever she went, either she flew away or demons' limbs flew off.

Under the siege of this group of demons, Lin Du could only leap into the air repeatedly to dodge attacks from all directions.

From Fox's perspective, it was a dizzying, disorienting experience, with the world spinning around and him jumping back and forth.

It truly showed Fox You what real genius speed and fighting skills are like. Lin Du could easily spin and flip in the air, not to mention his speed that made it impossible to see anything passing by.

Fox cursed inwardly. He might be a dog, but Lin Du was definitely not a human.

On the other side, Hou Cang's sword energy crisscrossed like a rainbow piercing the sun, yet he fought back and forth with the Third Elder and his capable subordinates.

Finally, the sword energy roared like a dragon, carrying a merciless killing intent, and formed a cage of sword energy that trapped the three people inside.

Lin Du had nearly killed half of the demons summoned by the Third Elder. Seizing the opportunity, he called out, "Senior Brother!"

Hou Cang's body reacted before his brain; his instinct was that he had to run.

Run! Run as far as you can!

As expected, Lin Du threw out three Heavenly Thunderbolts, then turned and ran.

The two rushed out at the same time, their starting points one after the other, but they quickly converged and moved forward.

Thunderclaps exploded behind them, crackling and popping like water being poured into a frying pan, accompanied by the continuous screams of the demons, which only stopped after a long time.

Only the Third Elder and two subordinates emerged from the turbulent flow of lightning, each carrying a strange umbrella, their expressions inscrutable.

"Elder, aren't we going to pursue them?"

"Let those busybodies have their fun first. You all wait in the back. Don't worry about Hou Cang. Capture Lin Du, and take him alive." The Third Elder seemed to have thought of something. He raised a hand and instructed, "After you capture him, don't let anyone else know. Lock him up in the cave beneath the water dungeon."

"Yes!" they both answered simultaneously.

"Hou Cang is not easy to deal with. Let's release the Strange Mountain and give it a break."

"Yes, Elder, but what if those with ulterior motives see this? Won't they cause you trouble...?"

"No need, I've already made arrangements, someone will take the blame." The Third Elder said, frowning slightly.

Lin Du must stay today, otherwise none of this can proceed.

The two demons vanished from the spot, while the Third Elder, holding an umbrella, looked at the group of cultivators whose bodies were smoking from the lightning, shook his head with a smile, and said contemptuously, "A rabble, utterly worthless."

After rushing out, Lin Du sensed with his divine sense that a number of demons were rushing towards him, clearly after the bounty.

She frowned slightly; this was not a good matter.

"Is it too late to get a face transplant now?"

"The face doesn't matter. It's the spiritual power that matters. No matter if the demon has recognized us or not, as long as it attacks and we retaliate, it will still recognize us. There's no need to waste that effort. With me here, I can always lead you through a bloody path." It was rare for Hou Cang to be able to say so much in such an emergency.

Lin Du sighed softly, "Fox You, I was originally planning to have a detailed talk with you."

Fox said with difficulty, "Master, I have a house in Fanqian City. Why don't we go there to hide? At least we can disguise ourselves for a while. If you keep fighting like this, you'll not only get injured, but what if you run out of spiritual energy?"

There is no spiritual energy to replenish this environment.

Fanqian City is located in the desolate wilderness at the border of Zhongzhou and the Demon Realm, closer to the Demon Realm. It is home to more misguided evil cultivators, individuals, and demons. Only those who are exceptionally vicious and unacceptable to the world will live there. With so many people and such a mixed bag of people, it is chaotic, but chaos has its advantages.

"The problem now is that we need to get to Fanqian City at least first."

The scenery on both sides rushed past rapidly. Lin Du used the fastest speed he had ever traveled, while simultaneously focusing his divine sense on the outside, trying his best to avoid the pursuers coming from all directions.

With Hou Cang around, it was indeed much easier. Many times, Lin Du didn't even need to lift a finger; his sword energy had already arrived.

Ordinary demons could not withstand his attack.

As they drew closer to the desolate wilderness, Hu You couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed that Lin Du and Hou Cang had stopped at the same time.

Fox looked closely and saw a stunningly beautiful woman appear before them, dressed in a light gauze robe, exuding boundless allure.

And before they knew it, the surrounding scenery had transformed into a field of fragrant flowers.

The two humans and the fox simultaneously raised their hands to check if the masks covering their mouths and noses were intact.

"Everyone says that Master Hou Cang of the Supreme Sect cultivates the Dao of Forgetfulness, but seeing him today, he truly is the image of a heartless lover, making me... quite drool over him." The woman smiled, her gaze fixed on Hou Cang. "I really want to cut open your heart and taste it to see if you are truly so heartless."

Lin Du raised an eyebrow, holding Hu You in his arms, "Who is this from the Demon Realm?"

"The Seventh Elder beside the Demon Lord, don't be fooled by her appearance as someone who practices the art of charm. She is actually one of the top ten strongest beings in the Demon Realm, and her magical artifact is a divine bone."

"What did you say? Divine bone?" Lin Du was stunned for a moment.

"People in the Demon Realm say that these are the bones of an ancient demon god, emerging from the very source of demonic energy." Fox You, having spent a year in the Demon Realm, knew this very well.

Hou Cang ignored all this nonsense and rushed forward.

The two forces collided, the sword energy was sharp, and the demonic energy was even more domineering. Lin Du could even clearly feel that there was a stronger suppressive force in the opponent's power.

Lin Du frowned. "This is not a good sign."

Demon gods are demon gods, but they were gods of rules born when the rules were unstable at the beginning of chaos. They are not the same as the evil spirits of today. You can't just randomly claim someone as your ancestor.

Demons cannot master the power of rules, nor can they ascend. They are like alien species that appeared out of nowhere in history. The demon gods they talk about are probably just gilding their own lily.

Lin Du raised her hand and swung out a fan. In just one exchange, she sensed that this magical artifact was enhanced by the power of rules.

As expected of the bones of an ancient god, they still retain the power of the rules, but have been corrupted by the source of demonic energy, which is why they are so powerful.

An extremely oppressive force shattered the spiritual energy Lin Du had unleashed, directly pressing it towards her face.

Amidst Hu You's piercing scream, Lin Du abruptly put away the Floating Life Fan. Hou Cang rushed to her side in time, his longsword shattering the dark power.

Lin Du was certain that there was something wrong with the source of that demonic energy.
