ACER-Chapter 26: This Is Human Nature

Di Yange’s speed was very fast, and the five early Golden Core tigers weren’t slow either.

Along the way, she encountered two groups of people. When those two groups saw Di Yange and the five Soul-Devouring Tigers chasing her relentlessly, they were stunned.

Just what did she do for her to be chased like this by five Golden Core demonic beasts?

Did she obtain some treasure?

Greed filled their eyes, but upon seeing the five demonic beasts, they immediately shrank back and didn’t dare step forward.

At this moment, Di Yange was filled with excitement, because these five Golden Core demonic beasts were lively and very strong, and for the sake of escaping, she could only exhaust all her spiritual power.

Exhausting spiritual power was a good thing, this way it would help her court death.

She had already planned that after going back, she would use what she learned to start a company, get rich, become a domineering female CEO, and reach the peak of life. (～﹃～)

Finally, Di Yange could feel that her spiritual power was almost depleted.

Her small face was full of seriousness.

This was a hard-earned opportunity, no one was allowed to stop her.

Outside the light screen, the onlookers were also a bit excited. Especially since Luo Ziyin was currently dejected and had no mood to care about them, their voices grew louder and louder.

“Haha, Di Yange has run out of spiritual power, right? Now, there’s a good show to watch. With his Foundation Establishment level, trying to attract five Golden Core beasts just to seduce the Demon Venerable, it’s about to backfire on him.”

“Waiting for Di Yange to get beaten. I want to see how he escapes the five Golden Core demonic beasts.”

“He’s out of spiritual power now, and he gave all his pills to the demon. This time he’s dead for sure.”

The voices of the melon-eating onlookers made Long Yanche and the others somewhat displeased. What did they mean by seducing the demon? She clearly seduced them. But being able to see Di Yange suffer, they tacitly remained silent and watched the show.

They all stared intently at the light screen.

Finally, Di Yange stopped. The five Golden Core demonic beasts saw the enemy who burned their fur right before them and all pounced at once, determined to tear her to pieces.

The mere aura of the five Golden Core demonic beasts made Di Yange spit out a mouthful of blood.

Everyone saw that Di Yange just stared blankly at the five Golden Core demonic beasts without making any move. Her expression seemed to look like someone righteously going to her death.

The crowd sneered.

Did the demon emperor know that she was no match but still deliberately lured the demonic beasts away to let the demon escape?

Absolutely impossible, there must be some conspiracy.

Until one of the Golden Core demonic beasts bit off one of Di Yange’s arms in a single bite and ate it, everyone then realized that this was all real.

Seeing the relieved smile on her face, everyone was a bit surprised.

This…who wouldn’t mentally collapse from watching demonic beasts devour themselves? Had Di Yange gone mad?

This wasn’t what they expected.

If they didn’t know that she was their demon emperor, they would’ve thought that she was some saint saving the world.

Then came several tearing sounds, and the crowd gasped again.

Until the last demonic beast prepared to bite her head.

At that moment, the scene on the light screen suddenly changed.

Di Yange stood there with all four limbs intact and not a trace of injury.

“How did you see through my illusion?”

Standing before Di Yange was a stunning woman, with bright eyes, black hair tied up with a jade hairpin, making her swan-like neck even more slender.

She wore a moonlight dress, with a yellow floral tassel at her waist, graceful and unforgettable at a glance.

But Di Yange ignored her and kept touching her intact limbs.

Damn it, no wonder she felt like something was off earlier.

The woman before her was clearly losing her patience, her beautiful face showing anger, “Did you hear what I said? Don’t you want to know how your little lover is doing right now?”

After confirming that her limbs were intact, Di Yange instantly glared at the woman.

“I don’t know what nonsense illusion you’re talking about, and I don’t have any dog shit little lover.”

The woman glared at her darkly, “You really resemble her. Always pretending to be innocent, always sacrificing yourself to save others. No wonder he likes you so much.”

“I don’t understand a word you’re saying. What exactly do you mean?” Di Yange pointed at her and snapped, “I just want to know, were you the one who said at the entrance that intruders die???”

“You don’t need to deny it. If you don’t believe me, I can show you.”

The woman waved her hand, and a water mirror appeared before them.

In the mirror, Xiao Jue had somehow reached the place where she was ‘killed’ by the beasts, and he was fighting the five Golden Core beasts alone, covered in wounds.

“Why is he so… stupid?” Di Yange felt some sympathy, then suddenly thought, “But… this is fake, right? Just like me earlier.”

“Only those with strong willpower can see through it. Otherwise, to them, everything is real.”

Seeing Xiao Jue injured by the demonic beasts again, Di Yange felt a moment of sympathy.

The woman continued, “I know you feel bad. If you want him to live, it’s very simple. Just stay here forever.”

Di Yange hesitated.,“If I stay, will I die?”

The woman’s beautiful face showed madness, “Yes.”

Di Yange looked at her in shock.

She didn’t expect that there would be such a good thing.

Without hesitation, she said, “I agree.”

“You actually agreed so quickly, and you still say you have nothing to do with him?” The woman became excited again, madness filling her eyes.

Di Yange blinked innocently, “What relationship? I’m still a child.”

“Enough with the nonsense. Since this is your choice, I won’t let him off easily.”

As she spoke, another ‘Di Yange’ appeared in the water mirror.

In Xiao Jue’s surprise, that ‘Di Yange’ struck his dantian with a palm.

At the same time, ‘Di Yange’ said, “Xiao Jue, you’re clearly just trash. Why do you deserve to have the same cultivation as me? Trash like you should die. Let me tell you, I’ve long known the secret here. Only when all of you are dead will the treasures of this secret realm belong to me alone.”

Xiao Jue looked at ‘Di Yange’ in disbelief, a trace of grievance flashing in his eyes.

Who could’ve thought that the person he finally tried to trust with difficulty would deceive him in the end.

He bitterly felt the chaotic spiritual power in his dantian from the heavy blow.

The pain of the chaotic spiritual power was far less than the pain in his heart.

Looking at ‘Di Yange’, hatred flashed in his eyes, and he swung his sword at her.

The woman laughed loudly after watching this scene.

“See? This is human nature. You almost died for him, yet he only believes what he sees in front of him.”
