Chapter 76.1 What Is a Demon? (1/2)

News about someone attempting to murder the Sacred Child was spread across the Divine Dragon Island within a day! Many of the demonic disciples were overwhelmed by disbelief. Who would be as bold to do that?

The title ‘Sacred Child’ was given by the Demon Sovereign himself, which was an identity equivalent to a crown prince in the human empires. Who would dare kill the Sacred Child? A depressive atmosphere loomed over the entire Divine Dragon Island.

At the same time, news about another person was disseminated all over the island. And that was about Wang Ke!

Wang Ke had rescued many demonic disciples from the Great Qing Royal Palace. And just recently, he had jumped into the Ten-thousand Serpent Pool to save the Sacred Child without the slightest hesitation. Such courage and generosity characterized his persona in the demon’s eyes as someone “loyal and faithful” and a “future pillar of the demonic sect.”

Everyone who spoke about Wang Ke had to give a thumbs-up; Mahjong—Wang Ke’s creation—had also become popular all across the island.

Wang Ke had yet to learn that he had become the center of attention in the entire island. He was led by a demonic disciple to Zhu Hongyi’s palace.

He saw She Qingqing in one of the great halls. She was still very weak.

“Qing’er, Wang Ke is here. He tried to kill you that day, and yet you’re going to spare him?” Zhu Hongyi asked, frowning.

She Qingqing looked at Wang Ke with conflicted eyes. She thought that she would perish along with the demons. Little did she expect that neither she nor Zhu Hongyi had died.

“I don’t blame him!” She Qingqing shook her head.

“Why?” Zhu Hongyi asked in frustration.

She Qingqing looked at Zhu Hongyi with cold eyes. The latter immediately swallowed the words he was about to say. Qing’er wanted to die. Why would she blame the person who tried to end her life?She would be thanking him instead!

“Okay, okay. We won’t blame him. But please don’t do something so foolish again!” Zhu Hongyi urged.

“Wang Ke? What do you say?” She Qingqing laughed bitterly, while looking at Wang Ke.

Zhu Hongyi creased his brow due to the shock. You’re asking for Wang Ke’s opinion on this?

Zhu Hongyi threw a stare at Wang Ke, warning him to not speak recklessly.

“Heaven by virtue desires life. The way I see it, why die if you can stay alive?” Wang Ke tried persuading her.

She Qingqing looked at Wang Ke and gave a bitter laugh.

“Qing’er?” Zhu Hongyi was worried.

She Qingqing took a deep breath and requested, “I want to speak with Wang Ke for a while, just the two of us!”

“Just the two of you?” Zhu Hongyi was obviously reluctant.

“Why? You think I might have feelings for this little brat?” She Qingqing asked Zhu Hongyi with a cold face.

“Of course not! I’m just…. just…!” Zhu Hongyi tried to explain himself.

He believed in She Qingqing’s love for him, so he didn’t think of it that way. Instead, he stared at Wang Ke, making signs to convince her into staying alive.

“You mustn’t eavesdrop!” She Qingqing looked at Zhu Hongyi again.

“Don’t worry. I promise there won’t be a third person listening to what you and Wang Ke speak!” Zhu Hongyi nodded eventually.

He felt frustrated as he walked out of the great hall. After that, She Qingqing cast an essence energy barrier to isolate Wang Ke and her, ensuring that no one could hear them speak.

Only She Qingqing and Wang Ke were left in the hall at that moment.

Wang Ke had a bitter smile on his face by then. “Hall Lord She, I didn’t expect… Please forgive me for the many misunderstandings we’ve had!” he said.

She Qingqing looked at Wang Ke and sighed, “So, you weren’t able to escape that day!”

“There was no way! The demons thought I killed you. All of them were so passionate about thanking me. I…!” Wang Ke laughed helplessly.

“You are lucky to stay alive until now!” She Qingqing sighed again.

“Luck? I’m quite lucky! But I should be safer now that Hall Lord She is awake. Shall we find an opportunity to return to the Heavenly Wolf Sect?” Wang Ke asked hopefully.

“Return to the Heavenly Wolf Sect? Heh, I can’t go back. I can never go back!” She Qingqing laughed in despair.

Wang Ke persuaded her by saying, “Why? Just because you became a demon? I can see that your heart is still on the righteous side! You are not a demon! My Revered Teacher will surely believe in you!”

She Qingqing shook her head and replied, “You don’t understand. You still don’t understand! ‘Demon’ …Do you know what that is? Why would an ordinary human become a demon? What distinguishes the two?”

“A demon? I only know a little about it!” Wang Ke frowned, not knowing the answer.

“There’s something called the “demonic seed.” Once implanted into a human body, it’ll fuse with the consciousness of the human soul. If that person is willing to go through the fusion, the result will be a demon! If the person’s soul is unwilling, the demonic seed can’t do anything and will later disintegrate. So, whether one becomes a demon depends on his will!” She Qingqing explained.

“Demonic seed… It fuses with the consciousness of the human soul? Demonization? Where did the demonic seed come from?” Wang Ke asked in astonishment.

“Normal demonic seeds are formed by the previous generation of demons!” She Qingqing answered.

Wang Ke frowned, falling into a spell of deep thought. This sounds similar to the vampire movies on Earth. After biting their victims, didn’t vampires inject their own blood essence into their victims so they could turn them into vampires.?

“Whether one is willing to become a demon or not depends on the moment that person was implanted with the demonic seed, doesn’t it ? All the demonic disciples have chosen to fuse with the demonic seed? They were all willing at the moment?” Wang Ke was truly surprised.

“Heh, who would be willing? I can straight out tell you that it inches forward to alter your will and turn you into another person! Are you willing to let the demonic seed fuse with your soul?” She Qingqing asked.

Wang Ke’s face froze. You must be joking! After the fusion, I won’t be myself?No way I would want that!

“The body will become immensely powerful after the fusion, often bringing people on the verge of dying back to the living! Some don’t want to die, so they compromise by accepting the demonic seed!” She Qingqing explained further.

Wang Ke came to a realization. “Now I understand. Your grand-nephew She Tianba came back to life because of that. The demonic seed was implanted in his body when he was about to die, which he agreed to fuse with. After that, the demonic seed aided in his recovery!”

“Yeah, but at the cost of turning into a demon. Once you become a demon, you will never be human again. Hahaha, She Tianba is not a human, and neither am I. I’m not a human anymore!” She Qingqing declared sorrowfully.

“Hall Lord She, I don’t see any difference between how you are now and back then. You are still you!” Wang Ke was curious.

“I’m still me? Heh, soon I won’t be!” She Qingqing shook her head.

“That’s odd. Zhu Hongyi must have been a demon for a hundred years already. He’s still him, isn’t he?” Wang Ke asked.

She Qingqing shook her head and said, “Is that so? No, he changed a long time ago!”
