Chapter 395: Demonic Seeds of the Dao Heart (3)
The still rising warm blood, drop by drop, dripped from the corner of the young boy\'s clothes onto the snow-covered ground, gradually dyeing the snow beneath his feet a blood-red color.
The lifeless body of the young boy, which he had ruthlessly slammed, collided heavily with the robust chest of the Red Devil, and ultimately fell to the ground, motionless.
The expression on the face of the Red Devil, slightly stupefied due to shock, didn\'t attempt to evade the lifeless body of the young boy that was hurled toward him.
Because his mind was filled with thick perplexity.
Until the moment the young boy drew his sword, none of the people present could have imagined that the one he would kill would be this little boy.
On the elevated platform, the Blue Devil, who was roasting human flesh, turned his head in astonishment, thinking that his psychic perception had been mistaken just now.
With closed eyes, waiting for the human flesh to be roasted to perfection, the tranquil soul of the Blue Devil suddenly opened its eyes and gazed at the half-bloodied young boy in the snowy landscape.
Xie Yunniang, who had remained silent all along, silently watched this scene, still without uttering a word.
The only one who spoke in the scene was the young boy with half of his body stained in red.
He coldly gazed at the Red Devil, tossing the blood-dripping slaughterer\'s sword at their feet, and emotionlessly uttered, "You promised that this girl belongs to me, that no one can harm her. I can keep her by my side indefinitely!"
After speaking, without paying any heed to the demons\' reactions, Sun Yan directly grabbed the collar of the nearby bewildered little girl and dragged her away from this place.
The body of the little girl left behind a long trail in the snowy landscape.
The icy wind and snowflakes were drifting in the village.
Upon witnessing this scene from the high platform, the Blue Devil burst into laughter, exclaiming, "Red Devil, you\'ve been played… hahaha…"
Ning Po closed her eyes once more and uttered with indifference, "The disciples of the Wolf God indeed differ from the mundane."
Xie Yunniang let out a contemptuous cold snort and remained silent.
Upon regaining his senses, Red Devil gazed at the lifeless body of the young boy at his feet, as well as the youth leading the little girl away. He contemptuously spat and remarked, "I believe this lad has a mind deranged. While the girl willingly courts death, longing for her brother to survive, this lad takes the life of the girl\'s brother and saves this girl who yearns for death."
"Does he truly believe that this little girl would be grateful to him?"
"The sister who, at the mere age of eight, understood how to protect her younger brother and would rather sacrifice herself, will certainly harbor resentment towards this lad, hating him for why he had to kill her brother."
"This lad insists on keeping this little girl by his side, clearly inviting trouble upon himself! Inviting trouble!"
Stamping relentlessly on the lifeless body of the young boy at his feet, Red Devil shouted loudly at Sun Yan\'s departing figure.
That piercing cry of the monster resonated and spread far away, echoing throughout the snowy mountain valley, reaching the ears of the entire village.
However, the partially bloodied youth continued to walk through the snowy landscape with an indifferent expression, showing no signs of hesitation.
He led the small girl, whose entire body was soaked in blood and now frozen, into the finest house in the village. Swiftly, he rummaged through the cabinet and pulled out several thick garments, placing them all upon the girl.
"Change out of your damp clothes, and if they don\'t fit properly, find ones that do on your own."
After saying that, Sun Yan turned around and walked towards the door, leaving the little girl behind in the room.
This is the yard of the village chief\'s residence, considered the most luxurious compound in the village. The room where the little girl is located is the granddaughter\'s room of the village chief.
When the Red-blue Twin Devils arrived in the village, they shattered the Human Emperor monument at the village entrance, and the first ones they killed upon entering were the village chief\'s family. At that time, the Twin Devils each devoured a few children from the village chief\'s household.
Sun Yan, who was standing beside, could see clearly, and thus he knew that there must be children\'s clothing in the room.
After a while, a little girl wearing a set of thick clothes emerged from the room, timidly gazing at Sun Yan outside the door, shivering with fear.
Upon seeing her in such a state, Sun Yan\'s expression turned cold as he said, "I understand that you will resent me, resent why I saved you and killed your brother. However, I must emphasize that you had no choice, and likewise, I had none either."
"I would rather save a selfless elder sister who is willing to sacrifice herself to save her brother, than to save a younger brother who, upon hearing his sister sacrificing herself, reacts with joy and excitement instead of worrying about his sister."
"Regardless of your mood, the situation has turned out this way, and neither you nor I have a choice."
"Desiring death, it\'s simple; just leave my side and seek that crimson creature. It would gladly devour you in a single gulp."
"If you wish to live, then obediently stay by my side. As long as I remain alive, I will do my best to ensure your safety and allow you to live for a longer period of time."
After saying that, Sun Yan walked straight towards the outside.
He was unwilling to reside in this courtyard that had recently been wiped out of its entire household. Within this courtyard, it seemed that every time he closed his eyes, the anguished cries of that family would resound in his ears.
With the little girl, dressed in freshly laundered clothes, Sun Yan returned to the central bonfire in the village.
There, the four wicked demons had already begun feasting on the cooked human flesh. Upon seeing Sun Yan return with the little girl, the Red Devil expressed some astonishment, "Oh… isn\'t this our disciple of the Wolf God? Why have you returned?"
The Blue Devil chuckled and said, "I thought you took this little girl and went off to cry somewhere."
The Red Devil laughed heartily and shook his head, saying, "Blue Devil, you\'re mistaken. Our young hero Sun is not hiding away with his little beauty to cry. They are certainly going to enjoy themselves thoroughly! This girl is fair and tender, quite enchanting. If not for indulging in her charms, why would he not have saved the boy?"
The Blue Devil smirked and said, "Red Devil, you are mistaken. Why should only girls be the ones to be enjoyed? Can\'t we do the same with young boys? You gender-discriminating folks are always harboring malice towards males. When will males ever stand up? It\'s infuriating!"
The Red-blue Twin Devils, with a sinister air, caused the little girl to tremble from head to toe.
However, this time, despite the provocation from the two demons, Sun Yan\'s expression remained indifferent, unlike the usual unpleasantness.
Under the gaze of the Four Demons, the frail young boy, accompanied by the little girl, arrived at the edge of the square and sat in the midst of the snowy ground. He stared coldly in this direction - surprisingly, it had been so long and yet the other party didn\'t avert their gaze upon seeing them, despite their cannibalistic tendencies.
For some unknown reason, the Red-blue Twin Devils felt somewhat uneasy when they were being stared at by Sun Yan\'s cold gaze.
The laughter of the two demons came to a halt.
The Red demon glared and cursed, "You little brat, what are you staring at? Haven\'t you seen a demon that devours humans before?"
Amidst the icy cold flurry of snow, Sun Yan gazed coldly at the group of demons and spoke, "Indeed, I haven\'t seen them before. That\'s why I want to have a look."
He raised his hand expressionlessly and gestured, "Eat, all of you. I want to observe closely how you devour humans."
