Chapter 71.2

Shen Yuan was taken aback, “Jiujiu?”

Tang Mianmian also jumped, “Qiuqiu! What are you doing?”

However, Xiao Tangqiu turned a deaf ear. He had a death grip on Shen Yuan’s neck.

Xue Junli’s expression tensed at this sight and he was about to rush to help, but was stopped by Shen Yuan, “Don’t come over!”

Shen Yuan called Xiao Tangqiu’s name, “Jiujiu!”

Tang Mianmian was confused, “What’s the situation? Did Qiuqiu lose his memory, too?”

Xue Junli’s expression kept changing and he finally responded, “He was scratched by a low-level demon, plus he was bitten by a devil worm before… He may be infected by demonic energy.”

“Infected?” Tang Mianmian’s face changed drastically, “Would he also become a low-level demon?”

Xue Junli looked grim, “Before the transformation to a low-level demon is completed, it can be reversed. But…”

Tang Mianmian quickly asked, “But what?”

Xue Junli was silent for a while, then said, “But someone has to willingly absorb the demonic energy from his body.”

Tang Mianmian immediately said, “I can!”

Xue Junli, “No, you can’t.”

Tang Mianmian became anxious, “Why?”

Xue Junli paused and said, “Only people with demonic abilities can do this.”

Shen Yuan said without hesitation, “I can!”

Xue Junli bit his lip, “No! You can’t either!”

Shen Yuan asked coldly, “Why not?”

Before Xue Junli could speak, Yu Fuling immediately said, “Captain, that’s crazy! In your current state&#k2026; You might turn into a demon at any moment! If you absorb demonic energy again, you might directly become a demon!”

Xue Junli then said, “Captain, the demonic power in your body is chaotic but in a stable state. Once the balance is broken, you are likely to change. No one knows where the breaking point is. If…”

Shen Yuan emphasized each word, “I want to save him!”

Xue Junli took a deep breath, “Captain, you have amnesia now. If you recover your memory, you will regret it!”

Shen Yuan still said, “I want to save him.”

Xue Junli paused and continued, “Then have you thought about Xiao Tangqiu’s own wishes? Is he willing to see you transform into a demon for him?”

Shen Yuan said calmly, “I want to save him.”

Xue Junli was silent for a while, and finally sighed, “…Forget it, you can save him!”

Tang Mianmian had an internal struggle, but he was naturally biased and wanted to see Shen Yuan save Xiao Tangqiu. He quickly asked, “How?”

Xue Junli shook his head, “I don’t know either.”

Shen Yuan glared at Xue Junli.

Xue Junli gave a bitter smile, “Captain, it’s useless to stare at me. We haven’t encountered this situation before. Before the fully transformed, the transformation is indeed reversible in theory, but we don’t know how…”

Before he finished speaking, Shen Yuan eyes darkened and he flipped Xiao Tangqiu over.

Although Xiao Tangqiu’s strength had increased, he was completely unable to move Shen Yuan. He was turned over so his back was to Shen Yuan. He struggled desperately, but Shen Yuan pinned him with one hand.

Shen Yuan held Xiao Tangqiu with one hand and lifted his clothes with the other. He ignored the sight of the people around him and looked at the blackening wound on Xiao Tangqiu’s back. Then he bent down and licked it.

Xiao Tangqiu struggled, but couldn’t break free.

Shen Yuan began to lick the long and deep wound that went down Xiao Tangqiu’s entire back and almost reached the tailbone.

Xue Junli wore an extremely complicated expression, “Captain…”

The corner of Duan Hongzhen’s mouth twitched and he turned away in silence.

Yu Fuling and Sai Lulu looked at each other and also turned around with gritted teeth.

When Tang Mianmian saw this, he had to turn around. When he turned, he faced the enthusiastic residents of Hundred Ghost Town.

The residents of Hundred Ghost Town saw this group of outsiders unscrupulously ignoring them and became angry and quickly formed a circle, surrounding them. Seeing Tang Mianmian turned their heads, they immediately yelled, “Who are you people?!”

Tang Mianmian didn’t want to confront these furious people at all, but he could only bite the bullet, “We are here to save you!”

They naturally didn’t believe it.

“Liar!”

“You destroyed our idol! That is the idol of the mountain god!”

“Our Hundred Ghost Town has always worshipped the mountain god and you actually destroyed our god!”

Tang Mianmian couldn’t dispute it. At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.

“That’s not your mountain god.”

He turned his head and saw that it was the Miko, Kisaragi who spoke.

Kisaragi looked at the angry crowd and spoke calmly, “That may have once been your mountain god, but it is no longer your mountain god.”

“Who are you?”

“You are also a liar! You’re with them!”

In the face of everyone’s doubts, Kisaragi’s tone remained very calm, “The mountain god of Hundred Ghost Town disappeared many years ago.”

“Liar!”

“Bullshit!”

Kisaragi said indifferently, “Many years ago, when Hundred Ghost Village was still Hundred Ghost Town, the villagers worshipped the mountain gods religiously, praying for good weather and abundant harvest. Under the protection of the mountain god, the soil in Hundred Ghost Town was fertile every year… but with time, as years passed, the mountain god gradually became a distant legend. People no longer firmly believed in the mountain god. After several major disasters, they lost their piety even more. When the villagers of Hundred Ghost Town no longer believed in the mountain god, the mountain god disappeared.”

“Liar! Our mountain god is still there!”

“The mountain god had disappeared, but it has come back… Filled with unwillingness and resentment, it no longer protects the followers who were once pious yet abandoned it. It has become an evil god, a completely fallen god! It absorbs the power of your belief, accepts your faith and worship, but it wants to ruin you!”

Kisaragi said coldly, “It accepts your prayers, absorbs your aspirations, and becomes stronger and stronger. When its power returns to the peak of a mountain god, it will bring disaster to Hundred Ghost Town!”
