The Yandere Male Lead Chases Me-Chapter 763: Demon King Going Dark (Part 26)

Chapter 763: Chapter 763: Demon King Going Dark (Part 26)

Hua Qing watched as his legs transformed into a snake tail.

The first thing he did was not about the Scepter.

But rather, he embraced the petrified Su Yan and moved her to the side.

Following that, his eyes were pitch black, and his aura exuded an unknown fury.

He drifted step by step towards the Scepter.

He extended his hand towards the Scepter.

Then, the Scepter emitted a dreadful hissing sound like a snake’s tongue.

Under the utterly dark sky, it sounded especially sinister.

Hua Qing reached out and grabbed it.

He pulled the Scepter, which was about to fly towards the sky, down forcefully.

When he grasped the Scepter, for some unknown reason, the Scepter let out a faint hum.

It was as if a resonance had been created.

It seemed to have waited for a long time, and finally palpitated in Hua Qing’s hand like it had found its master.

Following that, those pitch-black patterns on the Scepter vibrated.

They began to spread downwards, alive like tendrils, crawling onto Hua Qing’s arm.

It continuously meandered until it reached his shoulder blade, where the dark lines bloomed like thorns, flashing gold.

Branding into his skin.

Thus, the contract was formed.

Hua Qing’s entire body levitated, hovering in mid-air.

Looking at the Scepter in his hand, he raised an eyebrow.

He closed his eyes.

An hour later.

The Scepter in his hand gradually shrank, becoming smaller and smaller, until it disappeared from his hand.

Hua Qing opened his eyes.

It seemed, different from before.

The previous menacing aura had dissipated somewhat.

Was there an added hint... of enticing allure?

He lifted his eyelids, a smile in his eyes, still looking the same as before.

Yet it felt unusually seductive.

As if compelled by a force, one would want to prostrate and kiss it.

One look could captivate the soul.

He descended slowly from mid-air, and the people of Snake-man Village were still kneeling.

Even more devout than before.

The elder from Snake-man Village spoke with humble reverence

"My lord, please accept your devoted servant."

His attitude was completely different from the previous threatening and hostile manner.

Hua Qing’s eyelids twitched, adjusting his sleeves

"Recruit a bunch of useless people as servants? Do you think I am free?"

His words fell, and he no longer cared about the more devout and somewhat fearful villagers.

He stepped off the platform and approached the petrified Su Yan.

His gaze remained fixed on her without making a sound, lingering for a while.

Behind him, the elder hurriedly spoke out

"My lord, this lady has a way to be cured and restored to normal."

Hua Qing finally listened to this sentence.

His voice was languid

"Speak."

Right after, Elder Zhao said

"Behind our village, there lies the Holy River.

Simply immerse the lady in the water, and she will recover quickly."

Hua Qing listened, glanced at the elder, then at Su Yan.

He smiled.

After a while, he uttered,

"Lead the way."

"Yes."

The elder prostrated himself and stood up.

Su Yan carried the petrified figure.

Following the elder, they walked deeper into the village.

As they walked in, they discovered a hidden paradise.

Ancient trees spiraled, a clear river trickled.

The lush, vibrant scent hit them in waves.

The elder pointed to the distance,

"This is the place."

As he spoke, a villager behind him was holding a white cloth in his hands.

He approached.

The elder took it, bowing his head and said

"Petrification needs to be undone within an hour to avoid harm, but the lady’s clothes will also dissolve away."

Hua Qing reached out and took the white cloth.
