My Butt Is About to Catch Fire
However, with her spiritual power sealed, how could she possibly escape?
Suddenly, her neck tightened—someone was choking her.
She darted her eyes to the left and saw that it was the stunning male demon who had grabbed her.
Um... You two must be joking, right? With cultivation as strong as yours, you must have long stopped eating. Why would you bother with something as lowly as roasted meat?" Lily Bai grinned obsequiously.
"Sometimes, when the mood strikes, one must satisfy a craving." The male demon gripped her neck and shoved her straight toward the fire pit.
Lily Bai instantly felt her butt was about to catch fire.
"Hey! Hey! Wait!" Lily Bai clung desperately to the male demon's arm.
"If you have any last words, it won't matter to us." The male demon said coolly.
"It's not a last word! It's... her!" Lily Bai pointed at the girl. "She's been hit with the Moonbound Ice Curse! I can pull it out!"
"You?" The male demon paused and asked.
You—just step away from the fire first!" Lily Bai used one hand to shield her butt; it was burning hot.
The male demon finally stepped back.
But he still didn't let go. She was like a kebab, her neck stuck, ready for the grill.
But Lily Bai's butt felt much better, so she put on airs and asked, "Do you know who I am?"
"Which one are you?" the male demon asked.
"I'm... Lily Bai." Lily Bai said, bracing herself.
She was one of the twelve Heaven-Bestowed Demon Slayers, officially seal-stamped by the Divine Realm.
And she was ranked quite high.
Her reputation was known throughout the land.
Sure enough, the male demon knew her.
The grip on her tightened. "Lily Bai? Heaven-Bestowed Demon Slayer?"
Ahem! Demon Slayer is just my side gig! My main job is Rune Master—actually, Supreme Rune Master! I can help this girl remove the Moonbound Ice Curse!
The male demon looked at the girl with the fire mark on her forehead.
Unexpectedly, the girl spoke calmly: "No need."
"How could you not need it?" Lily Bai exclaimed. "The Moonbound Ice Curse is nasty and vicious! It draws on the moon's yin energy, making you suffer freezing cold. By the full moon, you could turn into an ice pop! If you don't get rid of it, no matter how strong your cultivation is, it'll kill you eventually!"
"I said, no need." The girl remained unmoved.
"Why put yourself through this?" Lily Bai pleaded. "Let me go, I'll help you remove the curse, and we can all walk away. Isn't that better for everyone?"
The fire-marked girl looked at the male demon and said, "I can remove it myself."
The stunning male demon nodded and shoved Lily Bai toward the fire again.
Lily Bai grabbed the male demon's collar, panicking: "If you do it yourself, you'll lose half your cultivation! After all these thousands of years of training, is it really worth losing half your power?"
But the girl was utterly calm. "The Soulveil Clan's grudge must be avenged. Even if I lose half my cultivation, I'm willing!"
Soulveil? Lily Bai was stunned. "You mean... the Soulveil Shark I just hunted?"
She'd been caught by these two right after hunting the Soulveil Shark.
"What else?" The stunning male demon shoved her toward the fire again.
Hey—wait! Don't roast me yet! I have something to say!" Her butt was about to catch fire again as she clung desperately to the male demon's collar.
She tugged so hard his clothes came open, revealing skin as flawless as jade and impressively strong.
The male demon glanced down, tossed her aside, covered his chest, and straightened his clothes.
Lily Bai hurried away from the fire, gesturing for them to stop. "Don't do anything yet! Just hear me out! Roast me after I've finished talking!"
