Record of a Demon’s Cultivation

After dealing with the bodies, Song Wen turned and left the cave. After walking a few dozen miles, he confirmed that there was no one around. He took out the spirit beast bag he had obtained from Elder Huang and released the spirit beast inside.

 

It was a deer-like spirit beast with the strength of a Qi Refining ninth layer cultivator.

 

As soon as the spirit deer emerged from the spirit beast bag, it sensed its master was dead and attempted to attack Song Wen.

 

Song Wen slapped its head with one hand. The powerful force crushed the spirit deer's brain into a pulp, and it immediately lost its breath.

 

Just as Song Wen was about to dispose of the spirit deer's body, the Sacred Gu suddenly appeared and sent him a message: it wanted to eat the spirit deer.

 

Song Wen looked at the sesame-sized Sacred Gu and then at the spirit deer the size of a small calf, shaking his head in refusal.

 

It would take who knows how long for the Sacred Gu to finish eating the spirit deer. This place wasn’t safe, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.

 

Unexpectedly, the Sacred Gu became anxious.

 

It suddenly rushed toward the spirit deer’s corpse, its head the size of an egg, biting through the spirit deer’s skin and burrowing in.

 

Soon, a lump the size of an egg appeared under the skin of the spirit deer, moving quickly. The spirit deer’s body rapidly collapsed at a visible speed.

 

After about twenty breaths, only a thin layer of skin and flesh remained of the spirit deer, with all its blood, flesh, bones, and internal organs having vanished.

 

The Sacred Gu, now back to its normal size, crawled out from the skin.

 

Song Wen looked at the sesame-sized Sacred Gu, somewhat dazed.

 

Previously, when the Gu was not yet at the second level, it could eat a lot but never to this extent. He wondered where all the spirit deer’s blood and flesh had gone.

 

Song Wen took out another spirit beast bag, which he had obtained from a Qi Refining ninth layer Beastmaster Sect cultivator. Steward Qin and another person didn’t have spirit beasts; not all cultivators in the Beastmaster Sect raised spirit beasts.

 

Opening the spirit beast bag, a gray wolf of Qi Refining eighth layer appeared.

 

As soon as the gray wolf appeared, the Sacred Gu eagerly rushed forward, burrowing into the gray wolf’s open mouth and killing it instantly.

 

After another twenty breaths, only a gray wolf pelt was left on the ground.

 

After consuming two spirit beasts in a row, the Sacred Gu seemed a bit full and retreated into Song Wen’s body, disappearing.

 

Song Wen flicked his fingers, shooting out a flame to ignite the two beast pelts. Then, his figure turned into a blur as he headed toward the market.

 

On the way, he casually threw the two spirit beast bags into a beast den.

 

...

 

The next day.

 

Neighbors discovered that Qin Shi and her son had been brutally murdered in their home, dismembered and thrown all over the place.

 

Their fresh blood was used to write ten bloody characters on the wall.

 

"For the sake of my friend Hu Yun and his daughter, for revenge and justice!"

 

The massacre in the eastern district of the market, which was filled with various influential families, immediately drew the attention of the market’s law enforcement team.

 

After contacting the sect, they intended to inform Steward Qin about the death of Qin Shi and her son. However, they learned that Steward Qin’s soul presence in the sect had also dissipated.

 

The Qin family of three had been completely wiped out.

 

The Beastmaster Sect’s Law Enforcement Hall, upon investigation, learned that:

 

Steward Qin, before his death, had invited Elder Huang and two Qi Refining ninth layer cultivators to go out. The exact location was unknown to others, but all four had died.

 

The Law Enforcement Hall’s head, Luo Lianggong, was somewhat flustered.

 

A few days ago, two direct disciples of Golden Core cultivator Che Wanying had died mysteriously.

 

Luo Lianggong suspected that this might be closely related to Lei Tianyu of the Lei family.

 

At the auction, someone had seen Lei Tianyu and Kou Chang leaving together.

 

But there was no substantial evidence to implicate the Lei family.

 

Later, Luo Lianggong managed to bribe members of the Lei family, only to find out that Lei Tianyu had also been killed.

 

This situation led to a complex investigation.

 

Lei Tianyu had initially planned to fake his death to escape, making it impossible for the Beastmaster Sect to find him. However, the fake death turned into a real one.

 

The simultaneous deaths of two direct disciples and the continued inability to find the culprit had already caused Che Wanying to make several disturbances in the Law Enforcement Hall.

 

Now, with the death of Steward Qin and his family, it added to the chaos.

 

Although the Beastmaster Sect had cases of disciples mysteriously disappearing or dying every year, it was rare to have three Qi Refining late-stage disciples and a Foundation Establishment elder all die at once.

 

...

 

Outside the Qin family’s residence, a large crowd of scattered cultivators had gathered.

 

Most of these people had expressions of delight, and many hurried to spread the news, sharing this heartening update with friends and family.

 

Within less than half an hour, the news of Qin Shi and her son’s tragic death had spread throughout the entire market.

 

Song Wen also joined the crowd, standing at the edge, observing the Qin family’s residence. His gaze, however, was intentionally or unintentionally directed toward the small courtyard at No. 87 at the other end of the alley.

 

Soon, a woman with an enchanting figure, beautiful as a flower, and with skin as white as jade, appeared, holding a little boy with a tiger-like face.

 

This woman was Jing Yu, the concubine that Heng Cheng kept outside.

 

Jing Yu glanced at the crowd outside the Qin family’s residence and then turned to walk toward the other end of the alley.

 

She moved like those shopping women, browsing various beauty and clothing shops, looking at everything with interest.

 

After visiting nearly a dozen shops, she entered a guesthouse.

 

The guesthouse was large, with several small courtyards scattered throughout.

 

Without needing a guide, she navigated through the maze of small paths inside the guesthouse with ease.

 

Soon, she arrived outside a small courtyard and gently knocked on the door.

 

After a moment, a young man with a handsome face and a slightly slender build opened the door.

 

The young man, seeing Jing Yu standing outside, displayed a look of joy.

 

“Yumei, you’re here. Come in quickly.”

 

Jing Yu, holding the child, entered the small courtyard.

 

The young man closed the door and reached out to touch Jing Yu’s slim waist.

 

Before his hand could land, Jing Yu deftly avoided him, saying with a hint of reproach, “The child is still here.”

 

The young man cast a dark glance at the boy and then bent down, putting on a false smile.

 

“Baby, do you want to play with some toys?”

 

The three-year-old boy, not understanding much, looked up with excitement and said, “Play! Play!”

 

The young man took the boy to a large tree in the courtyard, where there was a big wooden box filled with various small toys.

 

The boy’s eyes immediately lit up as he began to play with the toys.

 

The young man turned and walked to Jing Yu’s side, reaching out to touch her perky buttocks.

 

Jing Yu, blushing, gave him a reproachful look.

 

“What if someone sees us outside?”

 

Despite her words of refusal, her body was leaning into the young man’s embrace.

 

They quickly moved into the house, closing the door behind them. The sounds of their passion soon filled the room, lasting for more than a quarter of an hour.

 

With a satisfied flush on her face, Jing Yu lay in the young man’s arms, caressing his not-so-strong chest, and said with a delicate voice, “Zheng Ge, take me far away! I don’t want to serve Heng Cheng anymore. Every time he touches me, I feel dirty and guilty to you.”
