The voice seemed to have replaced his consciousness, replaced his ability to think, enchanting him to take the next action.

......

"Wait, this aura..."

Standing on the cliff, watching the homes collapse and the flames fiercely blaze, the witch frowned.

Although she didn't know why the other party wanted to take down the Peach Man alone, she was still ready to intervene at any time if things went wrong. After all, even though she had started to become familiar with Gu Mo, she couldn't say she understood him deeply —

As a half-demon, his abilities are somewhat unique...

He carries a piece of Four Souls Jade Fragment, his strength is considered moderate...

During the previous times, Gu Mo hadn't really shown his hand in front of her; he hadn't even truly used the Ninety-nine Weapons. During the time he resided in the village, those cannon fodder demons that came to attack could be killed easily without revealing any trump cards, so the witch naturally guessed his level based on general half-demon standards.

His strength was considered pretty good, but facing a vicious demon like the Peach Man, especially when the opponent also had some powerful magical treasures, the count of Four Souls Fragments being roughly equal, the witch subconsciously felt that Gu Mo probably was not at much advantage.

However...

Soon after the other party kicked the door open and barged in arrogantly, the Peach Man's aura quickly weakened, and now it had ceased completely, clearly slain.

The witch was shocked not just by how easily this person killed the Peach Man but also by the aura that just manifested. Moreover, what's with the consecutive display of two different demon qis? She hesitated slightly, slowly stepping closer, gently pushing open the half-burnt wooden door, the roaring sea of flames met her eyes.

It appeared like a heap of meat mountain, or like a round and solid stone sculpture of the Peach Man lying silently on the ground, his belly crudely excavated leaving a large hole, with non-stone organs and intestines spilled all over... his frozen pupils were filled with confusion but had completely lost vitality.

The young man standing within the sea of flames was quietly looking at his palm, his nails turning sharp and elongated.

A pair of fiery red fox ears had appeared on his head, and behind him, a flaming-like tail had sprouted; his demon qi no longer seemed so shallow and unstable as before, but rather exceedingly pure, and... terrifying, even the witch rarely felt uncomfortable.

Demon Fox...

But this aura...

The witch felt a slight sense of uncertain suspicion in her heart, and countless thoughts streamed through her mind in an instant. She hesitated a bit, called out, "Gu Mo..."

She knew the other party's name but rarely called it, after all, it's hard for her to be familiar like the other party, as if there is no sense of distance—upon first meeting, he could easily call "Kikyo" and had been doing so all this time, to the point even she was used to it.

"Ah, Kikyo, you're here... I got this."

The young man turned around, glanced at her, then extended his palm, revealing a fragment lying quietly in his hand.

The witch slightly breathed a sigh of relief; her gaze fixed on the fragment in his hand momentarily, then she looked at the gruesome death of the Peach Man, quickly reconstructing the last scene based on the situation on site...

It seems the Peach Man, for some unknown reason, dug out and handed the fragment to him?
