Chapter 276: The Yandere Demon Lord 30

Although Lin Tongyin had long known that the current Tang Wan was no longer the original owner—

Seeing her utterly chaotic fighting style still left him momentarily speechless.

With that level of combat awareness…

She actually dared to face the Red Devil alone?

She truly had too much courage for her own good.

Not to mention—

The person she was currently fighting happened to be one of the most infamous protectors of the Demon Race.

The Red Devil.

The cultivation technique the Red Devil practiced allowed him to hide perfectly within black mist infused with aphrodisiac poison.

Once a female cultivator became trapped inside that mist, almost none could escape his grasp.

In the end, they would lose consciousness entirely before being drained dry through his dual cultivation technique—

Leaving behind nothing but shriveled bones.

If this had been in the past, Lin Tongyin wouldn’t have cared in the slightest what happened to some random female cultivator.

But now—

The person entangled by the Red Devil…

Was the woman he had set his sights on.

How could he possibly tolerate that?

Cold light flashed through his golden eye.

The next moment, Lin Tongyin swiftly took out a silver mask from his spatial ring and covered his face before instantly rushing toward Tang Wan.

He tightly pulled her into his arms.

Then—

The Scarlet Flame Sword flashed out.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Tongyin struck directly at the Red Devil.

…

The instant the Red Devil saw the Scarlet Flame Sword, his expression changed drastically.

“The Scarlet Flame Sword?!”

“You—who are you?!”

But before he could react further—

The Scarlet Flame Sword had already slashed across his body.

Blazing demonic flames instantly ignited his wounds, rapidly burning away flesh and blood until only bone remained.

The Red Devil staggered backward more than a dozen steps in terror.

Then he stared at Lin Tongyin in disbelief.

“You… you are Lord Demon Venerable?!”

Immediately afterward, confusion filled his face.

“Lord Demon Venerable, since you survived…”

“Why have you never returned to the Demon Race?”

“And why are you attacking your own subordinate now?!”

Hearing this, Lin Tongyin’s voice turned ice-cold.

“Because…”

“You touched someone you should never have touched.”

The moment his words fell—

Lin Tongyin’s figure flashed through the air.

Before the Red Devil could even attempt escape, the Scarlet Flame Sword had already pierced straight through his heart.

“Why…?”

The Red Devil’s body gradually dissolved within the flames.

Even at death, he still couldn’t understand—

Why the Demon Venerable would kill one of his own former protectors for the sake of a righteous cultivator.

…

After killing the Red Devil, Lin Tongyin immediately lowered his gaze toward Tang Wan.

At this moment, Tang Wan’s eyes were unfocused, her cheeks flushed an abnormal red.

Clearly—

The Red Devil’s poison had already taken effect.

Then suddenly—

Tang Wan softly murmured something unconsciously.

Lin Tongyin immediately focused all his attention on her voice.

“T-Tongtong…”

Tang Wan called out softly.

The instant he heard his name, Lin Tongyin’s eyes brightened sharply.

After all—

Once infected with this kind of aphrodisiac poison, a person would subconsciously imagine the one they desired most.

In other words—

At this moment, the person Tang Wan instinctively longed for…

Was him.

Did that mean—

He already existed within her heart as well?

The thought instantly filled Lin Tongyin with uncontrollable excitement.

Just then, Tang Wan let out another soft sound before instinctively reaching up to tug at her own clothes.

Seeing this, Lin Tongyin’s gaze darkened immediately.

Without another word, he carried Tang Wan in his arms and rapidly headed toward the distant Xingyue Forest.

…

Not long afterward, Lin Tongyin arrived at a hidden cave deep within the forest.

He had discovered this cave previously while training here with Li Yan.

The interior was clean and secluded, with even a spiritual spring inside.

Before leaving previously, he had already set up protective formations around the cave.

And now—

It was the perfect place.

…

After spreading a complete tiger pelt across a smooth stone platform, Lin Tongyin carefully placed Tang Wan upon it.

Then he slowly lowered his gaze toward her flushed face.

His eyes burned with dark intensity.

A low chuckle escaped his lips.

The next moment, he reached out and began stripping away Tang Wan’s outer robes with practiced ease.

“This time…”

“I finally won’t need to rely on perspective vision to look at Master’s body anymore.”
