Yang Rongrong looked at the Demonic Tree up and down and asked curiously. "How did you become like this?" Seeing that she didn't answer his question, Yan Hemei frowned even deeper. Although he was dissatisfied, he still answered her patiently. "My soul is forced to be bound to the Demonic Tree." It was a very concise and concise answer, but Yang Rongrong figured out the reason immediately. She rolled her eyes and said slowly: "Is this the price for borrowing the power of the Demonic Tree?" Yan Hemei said nothing, acquiescing. Back then, in order to seal the demon species and Yan Linyuan, he used the power of the demon tree. But the Demonic Tree is not a philanthropist. If you want to borrow power from it, you have to pay a corresponding price. Not only was all the cultivation in Yan Hemei's body absorbed by the Demonic Tree, but his soul was also forced to be bound to the Demonic Tree and could no longer be separated. Yang Rongrong found a relatively clean place and let the unconscious Linyuan lie down.
She casually took out a formation disk and set up a protective formation around him. Yan Hemei looked at her series of actions and became more and more dissatisfied. "He is a demon and does not deserve your kindness to him." Yang Rongrong raised her eyes and glanced at him: "Aren't you also a demon now?" These words seemed to poke Yan Hemei's lungs, and he immediately became angry. "I am human!" Yang Rongrong sat down next to Linyuan and said to Yan Hemei while trying to contact Luo Luo and Liu Lang through the contract. "Look at what you look like now. How can you look like a human being?" Yan Hemei argued: "In order to seal Yan Linyuan and the demon species in his body, I had to turn myself into this!" Yang Rongrong smiled: "No matter what the reason is, the result is that you have become a demon now... No, to be precise, you are not even a demon. You can only be regarded as a monster at best." Seeing Yan Hemei's eyes widening with anger, she waved her hand. "Don't stare at me like that. What I'm telling you is the truth. With your current appearance, once you leave the demon world, those cultivators outside will definitely cut you into pieces and even burn the roots of the tree." Yan Hemei knew that she was telling the truth, but because of this, he felt even more agitated. As the former leader of the righteous path, he had killed countless demons, but now he was forced to be tied to the Demonic Tree. How could he accept this? ! As if sensing his emotional changes, the tree roots that had been sleeping quietly on the ground suddenly began to twist. They waved like tentacles, and the black soil fell down. Coupled with the thick tree trunk with a human face and the dark mist surrounding it, there is an indescribable feeling of terror. Yang Rongrong felt like something was wrapped around her ankle. She looked down and saw tentacles growing from the roots of the tree. The tentacles were black, long and thin, and tightly wrapped around her ankles.
She drew out the Wuwu Sword and slashed it down, cold light flashed, and the sword cut off the tentacles. The broken tentacles fell on the ground, arched their bodies like earthworms, and then disappeared into the soil. Tentacles grew again on the surface of the tree roots where the tentacles had been broken. The regenerative ability of this thing is extremely powerful. Unless you can find its vital points, it is impossible to kill it. Many tentacles crawled towards Linyuan, but because he was protected by the formation around him, those tentacles could not penetrate the formation and could only twist desperately outside the formation. Yang Rongrong also hid in the formation. She injected some spiritual power into the formation plate to make the protective formation more stable. After a while, Yan Hemei calmed down from the frantic state. His face looked bad. Since he was forced to be bound to the Demonic Tree, his mind has also been affected by the Demonic Tree, making him irritable and easily losing control of his emotions. Every time he loses control, he forgets who he is and has only one thought in his mind, which is to kill all the living creatures around him. He knew that it was the Demonic Tree invading his consciousness. Killing is the instinct of monsters, but he is not a monster, he is a human! He shouldn't be like this! He's been losing control more and more recently. He had a vague premonition that if things continued like this, his soul would be completely devoured by the Demonic Tree, and he would eventually turn into a complete monster. He is Yan Hemei, the former leader of the righteous path, and a hero in many people's minds who slayed demons and defended the path. He would rather die than let himself degenerate into an evil monster. Thinking of this, Yan Hemei suddenly stretched out a thick tree root and stabbed it in the direction of Linyuan! The attack power of tree roots is much stronger than that of tentacles. It slammed into the protective formation. There was a click, and a crack opened in the array disk. Yang Rongrong's expression changed, and she hurriedly input spiritual power into the formation disk, hoping to repair it as soon as possible. The tree roots hit the protective formation one after another, and the formation finally couldn't support it and completely shattered. Yang Rongrong quickly threw out a handful of flame talismans. The flame talisman hit the root of the tree, and the gas burst into flames. Tree roots are of wood nature and are flammable when exposed to fire. The thick tree roots were ignited, and the flames spread rapidly along the roots. It twisted in pain and slapped hard on the ground. The fire was extinguished by the soil, and the charred black skin of the tree roots fell off, and new skin soon grew. Immediately afterwards, several more tree roots stabbed towards Linyuan. Looking at that posture, it was clear that he wanted to kill Linyuan.
Yang Rongrong threw out another flame talisman, and the tree roots were ignited again, and they had to retract to put out the fire. Yan Hemei couldn't understand: "You are obviously a human race, why do you want to protect a demon race?!" Yang Rongrong still has a lot of flame talismans in her Qiankun bag, but this is not a long-term solution. The opponent has too many tree roots, and sooner or later her flame talismans will be used up. She had to hold Yan Hemei steady for a while and wait for Luo Luo and Liu Lang to arrive. So she said: "Linyuan is your son. You have raised him for sixteen years. Even if you keep a pet, you should have some affection. What's more, he is still your biological son. How can you bear to kill him?" Yan Hemei said coldly with no expression on her face. "He is a demon. Demons have no humanity. They kill people like crazy. Keeping him alive will only harm more people." "Human nature?" Yang Rongrong thought this word was very interesting and smiled lightly with unclear meaning. Yan Hemei was confused: "Why are you laughing?" "If Linyuan was really inhumane, he wouldn't risk his life to come to the Endless Abyss to find you. Do you think he didn't think that this might be a trap? He thought about it, but he still came. Do you think about why? ?" Yan Hemei remained silent. Yang Rongrong said carefully: "Because he still had a trace of kindness in his heart, but you killed it with your own hands." Yan Hemei denied: "He is a demon. Demons are inherently evil. He cannot have good intentions!" Yang Rongrong did not argue with him whether the demons were good or bad. He was too paranoid. In his opinion, all demons deserved to die, no matter whether they were good or bad.
