Chapter 2022 - 2022: Forcibly Eating the Devouring Demon Flower

"Ouch!" A sharp pain made Ye Qing involuntarily let out a low cry. To be honest, ever since the Buddha's Relic entered his palm, Ye Qing hadn't felt this kind of stabbing pain again.Ye Qing looked down at his hand, which had a Vajra Indestructible, impervious even to the Metamorphic Iron Dagger, and saw a blood mark, a wound that had been cut open.

This made Ye Qing's eyes widen. He stared in astonishment at the demon pet on his arm. This was the Buddhist Vajra Indestructible Body, the highest physical manifestation of the Buddhist Sect, and it was said only the Xuanyuan Sword and Minghong Knife could break the Vajra Indestructible Body. Yet, a swipe from the little guy's claw had actually cut it open? How could this be possible? The little guy's claws were just too sharp!

The little guy didn't care about Ye Qing's gaze; it was still staring at Ye Qing's palm. Blood was flowing from the cut on Ye Qing's hand, though not much. Moreover, Ye Qing could see that the blood was tinged with a faint golden hue, not purely red, which surprised him even more.

"What...what's going on?" Ye Qing couldn't help but murmur, the color of the blood tinged with the faint gold of the Buddha's Relic was just too strange. Could it be that the Buddha's Relic had melted inside his body?

Seeing this faint gold, the little guy seemed a bit surprised as well. It scratched its head with its little paw, not sure what it was thinking. After a while, it suddenly jumped off Ye Qing's arm and ran into the nearby cave.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qing quickly ran after it, only to see the little guy jump onto a vine and bite down a Devouring Demon Flower from above. The little guy, dragging this Devouring Demon Flower much larger than itself, ran straight into the cave where the Great Demon King Coffin was located.

Seeing the little guy enter the cave, Ye Qing naturally dared not follow and could only wait outside. However, he knew that since the little guy was a demon pet capable of controlling the Demon Hideout Cave, it must also be an extraordinary creature. Since it could use its claw to cut open the Vajra Indestructible Body, it must have a deeper meaning for doing so, only he didn't know what it was intending exactly.

After a while, the little guy ran out of the cave again, dragging the Devouring Demon Flower behind it. But this time, it didn't go elsewhere; it placed the Devouring Demon Flower directly in front of Ye Qing, gesturing for him to eat it.

"You want me to eat this?" Ye Qing looked at the Devouring Demon Flower in surprise; it was huge, each petal as big as a door panel. One Devouring Demon Flower could fit a whole elephant inside.

The little guy nodded at Ye Qing, signaling for him to eat the Devouring Demon Flower. Ye Qing had eaten the Devouring Demon Flower before and knew that it wasn't harmful to humans. Besides, he was indeed hungry at the moment, so he didn't hesitate any further and tore off a large piece of the Devouring Demon Flower, eating it in big mouthfuls.

The little guy watched from the side, and upon seeing Ye Qing finish eating that piece of the Devouring Demon Flower, urged him to continue eating. Ye Qing didn't hold back, eating two more petals of the Devouring Demon Flower, and his stomach no longer felt hungry. He was just about to stop, but to his surprise, the little guy pointed to a third petal, indicating for him to keep eating.

"Eat more?" Ye Qing widened his eyes and said, "But I'm not hungry anymore."

The little guy couldn't speak, it just pointed at the Devouring Demon Flower, gesturing for Ye Qing to keep eating.

"Why eat so much?" Ye Qing muttered lowly, but as the little guy kept gesturing for him to eat, he had no other choice but to eat another piece of the Devouring Demon Flower.

Eating a petal the size of a door panel, it was fortunate Ye Qing was starving; otherwise, he couldn't have managed it. After eating three petals, he really couldn't take it anymore. Seeing the little guy still pointing at the Devouring Demon Flower for him to continue eating, Ye Qing quickly shook his head and waved his hands. If he ate any more, he reckoned he'd burst.

Seeing Ye Qing's state, the little guy didn't insist further, running into the nearby cave and picking another Devouring Demon Flower.

Watching the little guy drag out another Devouring Demon Flower, Ye Qing's face changed slightly, nervously saying, "What...what are you trying to do?"

The little guy ignored him, dragging the Devouring Demon Flower back into the cave with the Great Demon King Coffin. Seeing this, Ye Qing almost spat blood, guessing that this little guy intended to prepare another flower for him; how long did it plan to have him eat?

At this moment, the Buddha's Relic in both of Ye Qing's palms suddenly stirred, and its power surged forth nonstop, wreaking havoc inside Ye Qing's body. Previously, eating a bit of the Devouring Demon Flower would stir the Buddha's Relic. This time, having eaten so much, the Buddha's Relic was even more stimulated. However, after consuming all those Devouring Demon Flowers, the strength of the flowers in Ye Qing's body became stronger. While the power of the Buddha's Relic was formidable, it couldn't budge Ye Qing's internal organs one bit, merely stirring conflict within his body.

Ye Qing ate too much; he lay on the ground, feeling too full to care about what was happening in his body. He decided to just rest here. This journey had been exhausting, and he soon dozed off. When he woke up, he had no idea what time it was, but three gigantic Devouring Demon Flowers had been placed around him, enclosing him completely.

Having eaten so many Devouring Demon Flowers, Ye Qing's first reaction upon seeing them again was to jump up frantically, his face slightly panicked. If he had to eat more, he really couldn't handle it.

However, jumping up, Ye Qing also saw the demon pet sitting atop one of the Devouring Demon Flowers. The little creature was perched on the flower, tidying its white fur. Seeing Ye Qing jump up, it eagerly leaped onto Ye Qing's shoulder.

Ye Qing hugged the little creature and pointed at the Devouring Demon Flowers, his voice trembling, "You... you brought so many Devouring Demon Flowers, you're not planning to make me eat them, right?"

The little creature seemed to understand Ye Qing's words, nodding vigorously while pointing at the nearby Devouring Demon Flower, indicating Ye Qing should begin eating.

"Oh my god!" Ye Qing nearly collapsed; though Devouring Demon Flowers had amazing effects, eating them continuously was too much.

Yet, the little creature disregarded Ye Qing's feelings, insisting Ye Qing eat the Devouring Demon Flower. Unwilling, Ye Qing found the little creature unceremoniously tearing off a piece of the flower and stuffing it into his mouth.

"Are you crazy?" Ye Qing didn't expect the little creature to pull such a move. He quickly grabbed the creature, attempting to remove the flower from his mouth. However, the little creature became feisty, twisting out of Ye Qing's grasp and knocking him to the ground.

Despite its size, the small creature had terrifying strength. Regardless of Ye Qing's current state, even in peak condition, he'd likely have no power to resist. Pinned on the ground by the little creature, Ye Qing reached out to counter, but the little creature jabbed his arm muscles twice, leaving Ye Qing's arms powerless.

"What do you want to do?" Ye Qing was nearly breaking down; the creature's strength was astonishing. His arms were supposed to be Vajra Indestructible Body, yet they couldn't withstand the creature's tiny paws which managed to hurt his muscles. Moreover, it struck with precision, merely causing pain without injury. This pain only temporarily disabled Ye Qing's arms, leaving no after-effects.

Ignoring Ye Qing's concerns, as Ye Qing raised his legs to jump up, the creature mimicked the move, jabbing the muscles in Ye Qing's legs, rendering them equally powerless. This rendered Ye Qing completely unable to resist, and as the creature tore off a large piece of Devouring Demon Flower, Ye Qing grew anxious.

"Stop messing around!" Ye Qing pleaded urgently, "I really can't eat anymore, you can't force me..."

Before Ye Qing finished speaking, the creature stuffed the flower petal into his mouth, ignoring his protests completely.

Ye Qing hoped to spit out the Devouring Demon Flower, but the creature's strength was far greater than his, making resistance futile. Furthermore, the Devouring Demon Flower melted upon entry; despite its size, once in Ye Qing's mouth, it quickly dissolved into a refreshing liquid, flowing down Ye Qing's throat. Throughout the entire process, Ye Qing couldn't utter a word, helplessly consuming the flower. In less than a minute, Ye Qing had devoured the entire flower.

Nearly choking on such a big piece of Devouring Demon Flower, Ye Qing gulped several deep breaths to regain composure. Wanting to speak, he found the demon pet approaching with another flower petal.

"Wait a moment." Ye Qing wanted to buy time, but the creature wouldn't show restraint, swiftly cramming another petal into Ye Qing's mouth. Ye Qing couldn't struggle, forced to swallow the flower. After consuming this piece, the creature promptly fetched a third, repeating the process.

After eating three pieces, Ye Qing felt nauseous, his stomach bloated painfully. Seeing the creature aiming for a fourth piece, Ye Qing shouted hoarsely, "Enough, enough, anymore and I'll burst! Are you trying to kill me?"

Finally, the creature listened to Ye Qing this time. It blinked, looking at Ye Qing to confirm he truly couldn't eat anymore, deciding to set the fourth petal down and nuzzling affectionately against Ye Qing's shoulder.

Seeing the creature finally cease offering Devouring Demon Flowers, Ye Qing could finally heave a sigh of relief. Had he continued, his stomach might have indeed ruptured. He couldn't fathom what had gotten into the creature, forcing him to consume so many Devouring Demon Flowers.
