"But as long as Xing Xian succeeds in shape-shifting, she will be able to bring people in from the outside, and we won't have to suffer here anymore," Elder Eighteen said, his tone carrying a hint of longing.
"Haha, I can't wait, I haven't had a full meal in years," Ling Kongzi said with a big laugh.
The five of them looked at the Scholar as if he were a delicious dish, nearly drooling.
They emitted a spine-chilling laughter, step by step approaching the Scholar, yet at this moment, the Scholar's face showed no signs of panic or fear.
A smile appeared on his face, as he looked with interest at the five demons drawing near.
"Could it be that the Scholar has gone mad from fear, why else would he start laughing?" Master Skyward exclaimed in surprise.
"Humans are indeed enigmatic creatures; who knows what they are thinking!"
Hearing this, Master Skyward said no more but extended his arm, the branch-like tentacles densely attacking the Scholar.
