"No, impossible!"
The Purple Lion Deputy Hall Master let out a terrified cry, then the poison hidden inside its body exploded.
"Sikong, you little beast, don't get smug."
"Those who oppose us will come to no good. Everyone connected to you will die without exception."
As a Demon Race beast, it was larger and did not die instantly like Hang Kui. It could still utter a few more words.
Just then, Sikong Jing suddenly rode the Sword Tiger... Bzzz!
With one sword strike, he burst apart the Purple Lion Deputy Hall Master amid the spreading poison gas and tore out its inner core. Sikong Jing said coldly...
"One Eternal Night Female Wolf King isn't enough."
"Since you're doomed to die anyway, your inner core can be given to me for devouring."
As his words fell, Sikong Jing swallowed it on the spot. "Fortunately, your inner core hasn't been contaminated by your poison yet."
At the sight, the Purple Lion Deputy Hall Master toppled straight to the ground.
Its poison had flared, and it had lost its inner core. It died.
Its poison-wreathed spirit shadow floated out, staring fixedly at Sikong Jing as it asked...
"Why is there a bloodline on you that fills me with fear? What exactly are you?"
"Why did our Hall Master clearly leave power inside your body, yet you can still devour our inner cores?"
This question had never been answered...
Sikong Jing's Magic Beast bloodline had clearly been crippled. The Demon-Dispelling Pill clearly contained residual power from the Purple Extreme Heavenly Demon Lion. Yet Sikong Jing had previously devoured the Eternal Night Female Wolf King, and now he had devoured it as well.
The Hall Master's residual power should not have been removed by Sikong Jing so quickly.
In the end... Boom!
The Purple Lion
