"Jiang, Jiang Qian..."
Ye Xiaojing's long hair lay scattered across the ground in an arc. Her chin was tilted up, sweat covered her face and neck, and her body trembled faintly from the excruciating pain.
Her face flushed as she watched Jiang Qian reach into his pocket and pull out a black porcelain doll.
"Let's do what we discussed," Jiang Qian said, staring at the black doll.
The doll answered in a voice Ye Xiaojing could not hear. "Hmph, as you wish. We'll see whether this little girl's life is tough enough~"
The voice sounded tender and affectionate. It belonged to the Love Demon incarnation among the Seven Emotions Demon's incarnations!
Earlier, while Ye Xiaojing had calmly faced death and Jiang Qian had lain in wait on the outskirts, he had already communicated with the three demon incarnations he had brought with him, hoping to resolve the crisis with the strange power of these living items.
Just as he had hoped, he had indeed obtained several possible solutions.
For example, the Love Demon incarnation could infect a target with the emotion of "love." It would guide the iron wireworms into mistaking Ye Xiaojing's body for their mother, causing them to cease their attacks and harm, then leave Ye Xiaojing's body in a gentler manner.
This method caused the least harm, but the process would be relatively long.
