Ma Lin said, "We must eliminate it."
The monster was covered in black hair, with distinctly feminine features, fair skin, but it had extremely long fingernails, reaching two feet in length, sharp as knives. Its lips were a bright red. When its mouth opened, it was as large as a water jar, capable of spewing out thick black smoke. Its teeth were white, and it had four eyes on its face, all misplaced, often emitting the wailing of a woman.
It was a monster formed from Su Lanji's guilt. He regretted not giving her something to eat and forgetting to tend to her after she fainted.
It wreaked havoc in the temple, leveling all the buildings, uprooting a tree by the roots, and then went on to destroy the village a hundred meters away, demolishing the houses and snatching pedestrians to stuff into its mouth, as though starved.
In Su Lanji's subconscious, he believed this to be his dark history, unable to face such a woman.
