Chapter 80 Demons are far more righteous than humans.
"Kill...kill this lowly cat demon!"
Someone shouted, and the Zeng family soldiers guarding the area all charged towards the cat demon with their weapons raised.
The few Imperial Guards who remained behind were stunned for a moment, and at the same time, they remembered Li Yang's words.
"Don't rush into doing anything; the most foolish person is the one who sticks their neck out."
Several Imperial Guards exchanged glances but did not step forward. Their deep-seated hatred for demons prevented them from saving the cat demon.
Anyway, the princess will be here soon, so let's wait and see.
"what!!"
Zeng Yao's pupils suddenly turned black as she struggled to rush forward and protect the cat demon.
“Sister…don’t…”
Because the cat demon was facing Zeng Yao, its back was completely exposed to the people and soldiers.
The pain of her flesh being pierced caused her body to spasm, but she still reached out to protect Zeng Yao who was rushing towards her.
Sister, don't be afraid. You saved me once, and I'll repay you with my life.
Zeng Yao opened her mouth, and two sharp fangs pierced the cat demon's neck. The cat demon didn't even cry out in pain. Her tearful eyes followed Zeng Yao's face, and she weakly helped her kneel down.
"I beg you, please save her! I'm willing to be torn to pieces if you're willing to save her..."
What an ironic scene.
The human's blade pierced the cat demon's back, leaving it a bloody mess, yet the cat demon protected a human, willing to endure its own suffering so that the human could save its kind.
"Bah! How dare this lowly demon speak to us? Everyone, demons are cunning and treacherous. It's very likely that this is the one who caused Miss Zeng to be tainted by evil spirits. Everyone, don't let this lowly cat demon get away with this!"
People become bolder when they gather together. At this moment, their prejudice against demons has overshadowed their fear of evil races. It's like struggling in the darkness for a long time. When a ray of light shines in from a gap, everyone will rush to tear the gap open with their own hands, as if grasping the only lifeline in front of them.
"How is it? Is the master satisfied?" Two men in black cloaks sat in a teahouse pavilion in the distance, taking in everything.
The man sitting in the main seat raised his head slightly, and the slight upturn of his lips revealed his pleasant mood.
"Well done. As expected of the person who has been by my side the longest, you did a much better job than those two good-for-nothings from the Xia family."
Sha Yi took a sip of tea and continued to look into the distance, where the common people were faintly surrounded by black mist and were attacking the cat demon with red eyes.
"Don't use too much evil energy. Li Yang is almost here. She's accompanied by the Empress of Fengyang Kingdom. It would be troublesome if she were discovered early."
Upon hearing Dong Xiubei's words, he flicked his finger to retract a bit of the black energy. "Yes, Master."
Dong Xiubei looked at him with satisfaction, held the teacup slightly, and took a sip before Sha Yi could return the greeting.
Meanwhile, below, Li Yang, who had sensed the overwhelming evil power from a great distance, rushed over and witnessed Zeng Yao stretching out her fingernails, preparing to pierce the cat demon's neck and kill it instantly.
"Oh my God!"
Seeing this, Li Yang had no time to think. He quickly pulled out his Peach Moon Fan and rushed towards Zeng Yao. He was so fast that only a blur could be seen. Zeng Yao, who was caught off guard by Li Yang's aura, was knocked away. The cat demon fell to the ground helplessly. At this moment, she was too weak to support herself. The blood beneath her flowed into a winding blood path. Half-congealed, it was stepped on by someone. The person who stepped on it spat out a mouthful of phlegm in disgust and cursed the cat demon for being lowly.
"hiss!"
Zeng Yao, who had been kicked away, quickly got up and breathed on her. The ferocity in her eyes, like that of a wild beast, made the person who had just attacked the cat demon take a big step back in fright.
"Princess, quickly teach this lowly cat demon a lesson! It's utterly lawless!"
"That's right, this cat demon dares to bewitch the Zeng family into working for her. We must eliminate this threat completely!"
Before she could even catch her breath, Li Yang cursed, "A bunch of idiots! They were used and they're still counting money for the other party! Xiao Jin, come out here and give each of them a good whack on the back!"
A golden light flashed, and everyone with demon blood on their hands was flung to the side by something hard, their faces twisted, and even the weapons they were holding were knocked to the ground.
The cat demon, lying in a pool of blood, stared in shock at the scene. She opened her mouth with difficulty, but could not utter a word.
After completing Li Yang's instructions, Jin Guang transformed into a golden rope that bound Zeng Yao, its raised snake head dangerously flicking its tongue.
"A demon, a snake demon..."
"The princess actually keeps a snake demon!"
A scream erupted from the crowd, but the Imperial Guards remained calm. Having received instructions from Li Yang, they were surrounding Zeng Yao and the cat demon, but no one made any further moves.
Today, Li Yang wore a light blue gauze dress. The delicate woman stood in front of the Imperial Guards, confronting the angry people. Her expressionless face and disdainful gaze pierced their hearts inch by inch. The once bustling street suddenly fell silent.
Only Zeng Yao, struggling in pain, could utter a sobbing sound.
Rou Sheng, who was standing at the very back, couldn't help but stop in her tracks. Lian'er, who was standing next to her with her arms crossed, had a playful look in her eyes.
Her partner seems to have some presence; if she were to fight her brother, they should be able to fight to a draw.
"Quiet now? Look at your hands, look at what you've done!" Li Yang said firmly, her cold gaze sweeping over each of them, watching their expressions change from confusion to shock, and then to fear.
They now realize that their anger has clouded their judgment, causing them to attack a cat demon that was protecting its master.
No one dared to accuse Li Yang of raising demons anymore.
"what!!"
A roar came from behind her, and the Imperial Guards nervously approached her. "Princess, Miss Zeng seems to be almost there..."
"Li Yang! Go easy on him!"
The sound of galloping hooves grew louder as they approached. Li Yang looked up and saw Zeng Xu, who was at the head of the group, looking tense, while Li Su and Mo Yixing, who were following behind, also looked anxious.
Li Yang raised an eyebrow slightly and looked behind them.
Although they were still quite far away, the bright yellow robes that were surrounded in the middle clearly belonged to Feng Mo.
Li Yang turned around, squatted down, and lifted the cat demon's face. "Want to save her?"
The cat demon had been resigned to her death, but upon sensing the aura of the demon king emanating from Li Yang, her lifeless gaze rekindled, and she nodded with all her might.
She wanted to save her sister!
It's not just to repay the debt of saving my life, but also to repay the debt of protecting me for so long.
Li Yang stood up, and Zeng Xu rushed over and grabbed her hand. "That's my sister! Can you please save her? Please!"
Li Yang glanced at Feng Mo, who nodded to her and stood with Rou Sheng.
"I can't save him," Li Yang said calmly.
Not far away, a couple who had come with Feng Mo walked over with red eyes. "Yang girl, do you really have no other choice? Just name whatever the Zeng family can give!"
At this moment, the Zeng family of three stood in front of her, looking at her pleadingly.
Li Yang glanced at them carefully, then looked at the cat demon on the ground.
“I can’t save her, but if the cat demon is willing to burn its demon soul to burn away the evil spirit power in Zeng Yao’s body, that would be a solution.”
