True Purpose, Fox Demon Puppet

"Demon-Revealing Eye?"

Looking at the new Destiny before him, Zhao Huai felt a slight surprise in his heart.

This Destiny was simply too useful for him right now.

It could sense the demons lurking in the dark. Even if they were wearing human skin, he could quickly find them.

Moreover, it had a special penetrating effect. As long as he found the true form of the demon, he could lock onto it, and it wouldn't be able to escape.

It was equivalent to a tracking compass.

The final weakness characteristic was also crucial, because after seeing through the weakness, dealing with Demons and Monsters would be much easier.

[Do you want to fuse with the Destiny?]

Fuse.

Zhao Huai said silently in his heart.

In the next second, the bright orange [Demon-Revealing Eye] Destiny light orb bloomed.

It turned into a stream of light and entered Zhao Huai's eyes.

He only felt his eyes suddenly become hot, as if a flame flower was blooming in his eye sockets.

At the same time, a vast amount of spiritual energy poured into his eyes, causing Zhao Huai's eyes to glow slightly.

After a while, it calmed down again.

On the surface, Zhao Huai's pupils and eyes didn't seem to have changed much.

But in his own eyes, it was a different scene.

His eyes were bright, and everything in front of him became dim. Even the bright peony in the vase by the bed was no exception. All he could see were strands of black threads, particularly obvious, leading towards the outside of the house.

With this Destiny, there was no need to worry about Demons and Monsters lurking around him.

Zhao Huai thought with satisfaction.

With the [Demon-Revealing Eye], he could sense that there was still a faint demonic aura around him.

The source of these demonic auras all came from Li Yanqing on the bed.

At this time, Li Yanqing was a furnace producing demonic aura, with a steady stream of demonic aura overflowing from his body.

Zhao Huai guessed that the guards and the steward outside the house had all been manipulated, and the root cause must be these black auras on Li Yanqing's body.

These black auras could affect people's brains, causing hallucinations and making them irritable and chaotic.

But now, these black auras were all suppressed in his body by the Talismans set by Zhao Huai.

"Brother Zhao, it's a good thing we have you."

Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the situation in front of him had stabilized.

"Thank you, young hero."

Li Chong also cupped his hands towards Zhao Huai, but his voice was a little trembling.

He now felt that his legs were weak.

If it weren't for Zhao Huai, he would have fallen here today.

"Why did these Demons and Monsters target my son?" Li Chong looked at his son lying on the bed, sighed, and couldn't help but say.

Zhao Huai's Treasure Sword was not put away, but stuck in the ground. He said lightly, "Is it possible that the demon's initial target was not your son, but you?"

"How did the young hero see that?"

Li Chong asked in surprise.

"At first, I wasn't too sure, until I heard the demon say that the next one would be Jin Province City, and then I realized."

Zhao Huai had just wondered why the Fox Demon would place such an important mark on Li Yanqing, who was just a playboy.

The demonic aura mark was like a brand, which was quite difficult to make and took a lot of effort.

It could allow the demon's spiritual imprint to descend on a person.

Such an important item must have been placed on Li Yanqing for a reason.

Currently, only one explanation makes sense.

The person the Fox Demon wants to kill.

Or rather, the person she wants to control, is actually Prefect Li.

Her controlling Li Yanqing was also to get close to the Prefect's Residence.

The servant she controlled earlier was also trying to assassinate Li Chong.

This shows that this Fox Demon really wants to deal with Li Chong.

"But why would she target me?"

Li Chong asked, puzzled.

Yan Jing, who was beside him, thought for a moment and quickly came to a conclusion. He said with a solemn expression:

"Because the Prefect governs the entire Jin Province. If you, the Prefect, fall, or are controlled by a demon, then the entire Jin Province will be finished."

"If the government falls, there will be no one to report to the Sect, which will greatly slow down the arrival of Sect disciples here."

"That's right."

Zhao Huai nodded slowly.

That was exactly what he was thinking.

"This demon is so insidious?"

Li Chong was surprised after hearing Yan Jing's words, obviously not expecting Demons and Monsters to have such a trick.

Zhao Huai walked to the door, looked at the courtyard, and said with a calm expression:

"The crisis has not been resolved. The Fox Demon's true form has not yet arrived, and may still attack."

At the same time, he glanced at the Divination Sign in front of him, which was still "Misfortune."

In other words, there are still unknown dangers waiting for him.

Zhao Huai pondered.

Demons and Monsters' multifaceted divine pupil, what does this mean? Is it looking at eyes? Whose eyes? The Demons and Monsters' eyes? Or my own Demon-Revealing Eye.

The result of the divination remained unchanged, indicating that he had not yet found the key.

Zhao Huai thought for a while, but still had no ideas.

He simply started drawing talismans, placing the newly learned Dao Talismans in the center of the courtyard.

Black Wood Dao Thunder Talisman.

Born to protect the house, it can block Demons and Monsters. As long as it is not a great demon in the Foundation Establishment Realm, one talisman can block its path.

In this way, the safety of the people in the house need not be worried about.

"Bang, bang!"

Just then, the vermilion gate of the residence was suddenly knocked on.

The banging was loud, the movement was great, and the knocking was very rapid.

Zhao Huai came to the door, but did not open it.

Everything must have a reason. It's already this late, the sun is about to set, and dusk is approaching.

Who would come to knock on the Prefect's Residence's door? And knocking so loudly and urgently, without any etiquette.

Zhao Huai narrowed his eyes and activated the [Demon-Revealing Eye] Destiny.

Clusters of black Qi threads were connected outside the door.

That's right, not just one cluster, but roughly seven or eight.

Of course, Zhao Huai would not open the door.

Not only would he not open the door, but he would also draw a few more Dao Talismans at the door.

Draw Five Elements Thunder Talismans on the door in advance, both on the door itself and around the edges.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

A series of knocking sounds rang out continuously.

After a long silence in the air.

"Boom!"

A loud noise came as the vermilion door was blasted open directly.

Zhao Huai seized the opportunity and detonated the Dao Talismans on the door.

"Rumble!"

A large amount of flames surged from the doorway, like man-eating waves, rushing towards the outside.

With a "sizzle," a burning sound came from the doorway, and something was blasted away.

Once things calmed down, Zhao Huai activated his Demon-Revealing Eye to investigate.

The surrounding black threads had already been severed.

He saw an extremely thin, wretched-looking man lying blankly on the ground, his eyes vacant.

At the same time, he wasn't the only one; there were many other men with pale skin lying quietly around him.

Zhao Huai took a closer look and realized that these were all corpses; they were no longer human.

They didn't even have bones; they were completely just skins!

Shriveled human skins, barely able to move through the demonic power of the Demons and Monsters.

"These are the human puppets?"

Zhao Huai muttered to himself, finally realizing that all of these before him were human puppets refined by the Fox Demon.

At that moment, his Demon-Revealing Eye sensed a change.

Wherever his gaze landed, a large amount of black gas gathered together.

Turning into a person.
