After I stopped trying, a rich woman trained me into a demon emperor.

Lin Qingxue's consciousness remained in a state of confusion.

She was being led by Zhou Ran's hand until she got into the bulletproof Panamera, at which point she came to her senses.

The carriage was dark and quiet.

There were only the two of them.

Zhou Ran turned around, his deep gaze falling on her, who still looked shaken.

"Now, let's get down to business."

"What...what do you want me to do?"

Lin Qingxue unconsciously hugged the "Burial Classic" in her hands tighter.

"I want you to take me to that port ruins."

Zhou Ran got straight to the point.

"In that place, only your eyes can see the way."

Zhou Ran pinched the bridge of his nose; in truth, he didn't want to take Lin Qingxue with him.

Aside from those special eyes, she is now nothing more than a helpless burden.

Unfortunately, before reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, his Demon Eyes could not completely penetrate illusions.

Lin Qingxue did not answer immediately.

Everything that happened tonight completely overturned her worldview.

Especially when Zhou Ran pointed out, lightning flashed.

She could see those cold, ghostly figures that had lingered around her all day melting away like ice and snow under the blazing sun in the lightning.

At that moment, the burden that had been weighing on her for twenty-two years, suffocating her, suddenly lifted.

All demons and monsters would flee at the mere sight of this man.

She bit her lip and made up her mind.

"I can take you there, but I have one condition."

"explain."

"You need to help me completely seal these eyes, or... teach me how to control them."

I don't want to see those things every day anymore; I want to live a normal life.

She mustered her courage, took off her thick black-rimmed glasses, and revealed her unusual gray-white pupils.

In the dim light, without the lenses obscuring their view, those eyes revealed a broken and eerie beauty.

Zhou Ran reached out, his fingertips slightly cool, and gently touched her warm eyelids.

Her delicate skin trembled slightly.

"It's such a pity to seal it away."

Zhou Ran's voice was very low, with a hint of seduction.

"This is a gift from God, not a curse."

"As long as you follow me, I will teach you how to master it and make it your capital to look down on everyone else."

As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle yet domineering demonic energy surged from his fingertips and slowly seeped into Lin Qingxue's eye meridians.

Lin Qingxue shuddered, feeling an unprecedented coolness instantly wash over her eyes, and the stinging and burning sensation that had accompanied her for years vanished.

The lingering, distorted shadows in my field of vision have also vanished without a trace.

The world is clearer than ever before.

"This...that's it?"

She touched her eyes in disbelief.

"It's just a temporary suppression; as long as you don't think about it, you won't see it."

Zhou Ran withdrew his hand, the lingering touch on his fingertips stirring something within him.

"After this is accomplished, I will teach you a special technique for cultivating eye techniques."

Lin Qingxue looked at Zhou Ran and nodded vigorously.

Just then, Zhou Ran's phone rang urgently.

It was Qin San who called.

As soon as the call connected, Qin San's anxious voice came through.

"Master Zhou! Something's happened!"

My men found traces of the 'Seven-Leaf Lingzhi' in the abandoned factory in the west of the city, but...

"But what?"

Zhou Ran's eyes narrowed.

"But there's an extremely powerful formation there; we lost two brothers and still couldn't get in!"

and……

Moreover, I felt like the Song family was performing some kind of ritual inside; the smell of blood was terrifying!

Send me your location.

Zhou Ran hung up the phone, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.

"Hold on tight."

He said something to Lin Qingxue, then stepped on the gas pedal to the floor.

With a roar, Paramela tore through the night and sped off toward the west of the city.

Tonight, that factory must be reduced to ashes!

Abandoned chemical plant in the west of the city.

This area was originally a heavy industrial zone in Jiangcheng, but it has been abandoned for many years and is overgrown with weeds.

But at this moment, the factory was shrouded in a layer of dark red mist that was barely visible to the naked eye.

Zhou Ran turned off the engine from a distance and parked it 500 meters away from the factory.

As soon as she got out of the car, Lin Qingxue covered her mouth, her face pale.

"good……

Such strong resentment!

The soil here is all red!

In her view, the entire factory resembled a gaping maw, within which countless wronged souls wailed.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Zhou Ran grasped her icy hand, and a warm current instantly dispelled the chill in her heart.

What he perceived was something more fundamental than what Lin Qingxue saw.

A fierce aura and resentment soared to the sky.

"It seems the Song family has killed quite a few people for this medicinal herb."

The two sneaked to the outskirts of the factory.

Just as Qin San had said, a maze had been set up here.

If an ordinary person goes in, they will only keep going around in circles and eventually die from exhaustion.

This formation is a hundred times more sophisticated than the one Xing Lie set up; it was clearly the work of a true formation master.

It would indeed take some effort to forcibly break through it.

"Can you see the core of the formation?"

Zhou Ran asked.

Lin Qingxue suppressed her discomfort, and light once again flickered in her gray-white pupils.

"Over there!"

Beneath that abandoned chimney, there's a black stone; all the black smoke comes from there!

She pointed to the southeast corner.

"very good."

Zhou Ran flashed and instantly covered dozens of meters, appearing under the chimney.

Without any fancy moves, he simply threw a punch!

"boom!"

The Yin Sha Stone used to suppress the array's core shattered into powder.

With the destruction of the array's core, the mist shrouding the factory dissipated, revealing its true form.

That was hell on earth.

The entrance to the factory's basement was wide open, and a strong smell of blood wafted out.

Zhou Ran led Lin Qingxue into the basement.

The sight before her made Lin Qingxue unable to hold back any longer, and she vomited.

In the center of the basement, a huge pool had been dug out.

The pool wasn't filled with water, but with thick, sticky blood!

Countless white bones floated in the blood pool, and at the very center of the blood pool.

In the center of the blood pool, there was a strange, blood-red Ganoderma lucidum with seven leaves.

Just like a heart beating slightly, it greedily absorbs all the life essence in the pool.

Seven-leaf Ganoderma!

This elixir should have taken a hundred years to form, absorbing the essence of corpses.

They were actually forcibly nurtured and cultivated by the Song family using the blood and flesh of living people!

"Who goes there!"

Three dark figures darted out from the shadows and blocked their path.

These are three assassins with eerie bluish-gray skin and lifeless eyes. They are clearly under the control of drugs, feeling no pain and possessing immense strength.

"A master-level puppet?"

Zhou Ran grabbed Lin Qingxue and leaped onto the five-meter-high crossbeam with a light touch of his toes.

"Hide here and wait patiently for me to come and get you."

He put her down, and then, like a falling leaf, drifted to the ground.

Three assassins roared and charged forward.

On Zhou Ran's outstretched palm, a ball of dark purple flame silently ignited.

"Fire Cloud Whip!"

Under his mental control, the demonic fire instantly lengthened, transforming into a long whip burning with purple flames.

This is the demonic magic he obtained by exchanging that small piece of black spirit stone with Ye Futian!
