"Uh... let’s not talk about other things for now. If humans were truly inferior beings, then they would be the ones trapped on the mountain right now, not us," Little Nian Beast said. "And as for those who fear death and betray their own kind, choosing to devote themselves to so-called ’inferior beings,’ they’re probably even worse than inferior beings." After speaking, it yawned and walked away without looking back.

The skull on the cross narrowed its eyes slightly, a fierce light flashing in its pupils. At that moment, a cold wind blew over Spirit Heart Lake, brushing past the silver cross, causing Little Nian Beast’s purplish-red fur to sway in the wind.

In fact, even if the "Furious Demon" wasn’t actually an inside agent planted by Lake Hunting, Ji Minghuan was determined to take it down tonight. After all, Xia Pingzhou’s Celestial Driver still had an empty slot waiting for a demon to fill it.

After all, his Number Two machine already had Catastrophe-Level strength. If it wasn’t a Catastrophe-Level being, it wouldn’t be worthy of the Contracted Demon position.

Even if we take a step back, Ji Minghuan never intended for the demon forces of Lake Hunting and the Nian Beast to actually start fighting. Instead, he planned to lure them to Hof Glacier on Iceland.

By doing so, on the day the mission to rescue the body starts, he could use them to divert the Salvation Society’s attention.

And once Little Nian Beast took control of the demon forces on Hai Fan Mountain, then the only uncontrollable factors left on the mountain would be these three demons from the Seven Deadly Sins.

If these three intruders from the Seven Deadly Sins caused trouble, it could significantly impact the situation, disrupting Ji Minghuan’s plans. To be on the safe side, it would be better to eliminate them before the battle begins.

The worst scenario would be dealing with the "Furious Demon" and the "Lazy Demon," leaving only a "Gluttonous Demon."

That demon, whose body is a heap of rotten flesh resembling a mud mountain, doesn’t seem to have a brain. Leaving it behind wouldn’t have a fundamental impact on the situation.

Time quietly passed, and the sunset slowly dipped towards the horizon, taking with it the light scattered on Hai Fan Mountain.

And on that night, Little Nian Beast lay on a high cliff, using its keen sense of smell and vision to observe the Seven Deadly Sins’ movements. "Lazy" and "Furious" had left their nest.

They seemed to want to descend the mountain. The "Rat Demon" of the Zodiac Team appeared to have received orders from the Great Monarch, following secretly behind them. Little Nian Beast also detected its scent, as the body of the Child of the Year Beast was particularly sensitive to the smell of demons.

And just at that moment, Xia Pingzhou took action with Yanmo Lin under the pretext of "the Queen’s Statue had found the Seven Deadly Sins."

To be honest, if it weren’t for the White Crow Travel Brigade’s main quest still unfinished, he might have considered slaying Yanmo Lin here, but doing so would mean losing out on a few attribute points and skill points, rendering it meaningless.

So, at the very least, he had to wait until the mission "hunt down one member of Lake Hunting alongside the White Crow Travel Brigade" was completed before considering dealing with the task of killing Jack the Ripper.

At this moment, under the night moon, on the long street situated on the mountainside, Xia Pingzhou and Yanmo Lin walked out of a fairly modern hotel, looking at the vehicles coming and going on the street, both expressionless. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Let’s go."

Xia Pingzhou said, picking up the Queen’s chess piece from the Black and White Ring Road, summoning the Queen Giant. The Queen Giant slightly bent down, half-kneeling on the ground, as Xia Pingzhou sat on her shoulder.

"For helping you this time, I’ll put it on your tab." Yanmo Lin pulled out a dark red knife sheath from the tennis racket bag.

"Alright, I’ll definitely repay you well later," Xia Pingzhou said expressionlessly.

In the next moment, the figures of the two and the giant statue disappeared into the night street, shooting straight towards Hai Fan Mountain.
