Chapter 202: You Are Welcome to Try

Bai Si was completely stunned.

The scene before her eyes had completely exceeded the scope of her brain's comprehension.

She could not for the life of her understand why a human could emerge from the belly of a Soul-Devouring Demon Beast, and even less could she understand why a human would have such an exaggerated, heaven-startling giant kun growing on their body.

"Eh? It's you?"

Ye Lin, who had crawled out of the Soul-Devouring Demon Beast's belly, recognized Bai Si.

Isn't this the little girl who was picking up scraps of flesh under the sacrificial stone platform earlier?

Ye Lin's voice also brought Bai Si back to her senses from her shock; she wore an expression of extreme fright and said, trembling.

"Uncle, I'm scared..."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. It's safe now."

Ye Lin smiled, then raised his hand and twisted the head off another Soul-Devouring Demon Beast; the powerful Soul-Devouring Demon Beast was as fragile as paper in front of Ye Lin.

Bai Si's breathing became rapid as she watched; she had guessed correctly, this man was the key to saving Bajin City!

But when Ye Lin turned around, swinging his body, Bai Si's pupils instantly shrank violently.

"Uncle... can you please stop swinging? I'm scared..."

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment, only then realizing he wasn't wearing anything. He hurriedly skinned the Soul-Devouring Demon Beast he had just gutted on the ground and simply fashioned it into a fur skirt.

"My bad, I was in too much of a rush to leave."

Ye Lin scratched his head in embarrassment; even with his thick skin, he couldn't help but feel a bit shy at a time like this.

If he had been seen by a peerless beauty, he might have just stood tall and shown off, but being seen by a child was a different story.

Ye Lin might be lecherous, but he had principles; finding an adult who looks like a loli is fine, but you can't go after a real seven or eight-year-old loli—pedophilia must be humanely eradicated!

"Uncle, can you save Bajin City? Daddy is dead, Mommy is dead, so many, many people are dead. Sisi is scared," Bai Si asked, tugging at the hem of Ye Lin's skirt.

"This..."

Ye Lin was in a bit of a bind now. He had just crippled that so-called Butterfly Emperor; if nothing went wrong, the Demon race would be coming to hunt him down before long.

The current Ye Lin was like a clay bodhisattva crossing a river—he could barely save himself, so how could he have any way to save Bajin City?

Bai Si didn't say anything, just stood there quietly, tears streaming down her face, watching Ye Lin intently.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying? Isn't there no more danger?" Ye Lin couldn't help but crouch down and ask.

"Because you look like my daddy."

Bai Si reached out her chubby little hand and stroked Ye Lin's face.

Ye Lin fell silent, then took a deep breath, his gaze gradually becoming firm.

The first two lines of Zhuge Qianxing's prophecy had already been fulfilled; now only the last line remained!

When sunlight shines upon this city, the guardian deity of Bajin City awakens from its origin.

Ye Lin believed Zhuge Qianxing wouldn't speak without reason; if this line of the prophecy could be fulfilled, Bajin City should be saved.

But sunlight shining upon this city... in the depths of this Soul-Crying Secret Realm, where would sunlight come from?

Ye Lin looked at the thick stone wall above his head. Should he punch through the ceiling?

No, this is the depths of a secret realm; what if he punches through and goes straight to the Demon World? Wouldn't he be walking right into a trap?

And even if it wasn't the Demon World, what if it was a cloudy day after punching through? Sunlight isn't there every day.

Zhuge Qianxing shouldn't have meant that.

"Sunlight... sunlight... where can I find sunlight..." Ye Lin muttered to himself, completely baffled.

"Uncle, look out!" Bai Si exclaimed.

A ferocious demon had discovered them. That demon was covered in hard, crimson scales, had two horns on its head as sharp as knives, and opened its mouth to spray violent flames at Ye Lin!

The flames spewed from the demon's mouth were scorching and fierce, containing terrifying power, as if they wanted to burn everything in sight to ash.

The blazing fire reflected red on Ye Lin's face, but instead of being afraid, Ye Lin's eyes lit up, his face full of pleasant surprise.

"That's it! Fire!"

Ye Lin used a spatial jump to dodge the incoming flames. The flames struck the ruins of Bajin City, and the hard steel and concrete were instantly scorched black.

And Ye Lin appeared directly in front of that demon.

The demon was startled, clearly not expecting a human like Ye Lin to be so fast. Just as it wanted to guard against Ye Lin's attack, Ye Lin hugged the demon and gave it a fierce kiss on its body.

"Thanks, buddy! You've pointed me in the right direction!"

The demon was stunned, and Bai Si was stunned too.

Neither of them expected Ye Lin to suddenly rush up and kiss a demon, and such an ugly one at that.

Could it be that when you're being loved, it doesn't matter if you're not pretty?

The demon was even left at a loss by this sudden kiss from Ye Lin, and she raised her head, feeling somewhat shy.

The next second, Ye Lin twisted her head off and threw it aside.

"I'm cleaning up the battlefield, children shouldn't look."

Ye Lin covered Bai Si's eyes, then activated Endless Devour to dispose of the three demon corpses.

"Alright, let's go! I might have a way to save Bajin City! Tell me, do you know where the central area of Bajin City is?" Ye Lin asked Bai Si.

"The sacrificial platform!"

"Good! Let's go!"

Ye Lin picked up Bai Si with one hand and rushed toward the direction of the sacrificial platform.

The sacrificial platform was built very high and could be seen from any corner of Bajin City.

The demons blocking the way were no match for Ye Lin; at first, Ye Lin didn't even need to use forbidden spells, relying solely on his physical strength to blast the demons into blood mist with a single punch.

But the closer they got to the sacrificial platform, the more terrifying the demons became. Ye Lin unleashed a World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder, carved a bloody path through the demon horde, and charged in.

At this moment, a true member of the Demon race appeared before Ye Lin. He was folding his arms, had a pair of fleshy wings on his back, and his skin was incredibly smooth. Strangely, his face had no features, only a mouth of ferocious fangs.

"Soul-Devouring Demon Beast? No, Soul-Devouring Demon race!" Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

The demon seemed to have sensed something, suddenly raised its head, and then spoke in a threatening tone.

"Job-changer? Are you a human from the outside world? This is not a place you should be. Get out immediately! Otherwise, death without mercy!"

Hearing this, Ye Lin raised an eyebrow and then revealed a faint, confident smile.

"You are welcome to try. Even if I am unarmed and have to carry Bai Si with one hand, I, Ye Lin, am still invincible in Bajin City!"
