He hurried back to Zhou Qingyi and likewise laid a hand on her shoulder.
In the span of three breaths, he sucked every trace of demonic qi out of her as well.
Chun Xiaobai kept going back and forth like this, soon clearing all the demonic qi from the five of them.
Everyone else stared at Chun Xiaobai with wide eyes, as though looking at a monster.
Lu Qingshan in particular pointed at Chun Xiaobai and stammered:
"Y-you... you... you're not a demon too, are you?"
"What kind of talk is that?" Bai Jin'er immediately took offense, planting her hands on her hips and snapping at him.
"I think you're the one who looks like a demon!"
"How could my Great King possibly be a demon? Did you see any black qi around him when he acted? Was he anywhere near that creepy?"
"Well..." Everyone scratched their heads.
True enough.
They hadn't seen that kind of sinister aura around Chun Xiaobai when he acted.
Yet he could actually absorb demonic qi. That didn't quite add up either.
At their cultivation realms, they could naturally tell that Chun Xiaobai had drawn all the demonic qi out of the five of them and absorbed it into his own dantian.
Chun Xiaobai had no intention of explaining. He simply said:
"If you suspect this Great King is a demon, then hurry up and get lost."
"Not at all! Not at all!"
At that, everyone immediately forced a smile and shook their heads repeatedly.
What a joke.
After all the trouble of those two deals, they had taken a crushing loss of over ten billion spirit stones.
If they didn't earn that money back, it would remain a knot in their hearts for the rest of their lives.
How could they possibly just leave?
