My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel

As the battle continued, Gu Xing's control over his body became increasingly proficient, each punch executed with precise force.

But this also meant that the Blood Race Commander was starting to struggle.

Something's not right...

Gu Xing suddenly realized that from start to finish, this Blood Race hadn't managed a single decent counterattack.

He turned his head in confusion, meeting the innocent expressions of his three Guardian Beasts, who looked like they were saying, "We behaved ourselves."

His mouth twitched.

He understood the reason why this Blood Race did not attack him.

It turned out someone was meddling!

However, he had no intention of blaming the three Guardian Beasts.

After all, Liu Li, Qing Shuang, and others were also worried about his safety.

He turned again to look at the Blood Race Commander.

The commander trembled all over, eyes looking at Gu Xing and the Guardian Beasts as though staring at a group of devils.

Torture!

This human's various attributes were overwhelmingly strong compared to him.

However, this member of the Human Race didn't attack him with full force, only using him to test the power of his fists.

That would be quicker than ending him directly!

But now...

This human's atrocities finally came to an end!

He was going to be liberated!

As soon as Gu Xing stopped, the Blood Race Commander was almost moved to tears of joy.

Just...

Gu Xing turned to glance at the Guardian Beasts.

This Blood Race was intentionally left by him.

It was to understand what happened in the Blood-colored Church.

For matters like this, clearly, the Guardian Beasts were more adept than him.

Upon receiving Gu Xing's command, Vera, Qing Shuang, and Liu Li's eyes instantly became dangerous.

Earlier, this Blood Race dared to harbor murderous intent toward their master?

Unforgivable!

In the Blood Race's terrified gaze, the three Guardian Beasts surrounded him.

His pupils contracted, hands clutching his shoulders:

"What do you want to do?"

But the three seemed not to hear him at all.

Vera tilted her head, revealing a naive smile:

"Surely he won't reveal what happened in the Blood-colored Church, right?"

"I think so too," Liu Li said, an Ultimate Fire appearing in her palm, "we'd better beat him up first!"

Qing Shuang nodded in agreement, "No problem!"

Seeing this, the Blood Race Commander screamed in terror:

"Wait! I'll tell you everything you want to know!"

Unfortunately, the three showed no sign of stopping.

Next, he endured the world's top-notch treatment.

Three...four Myth Level Guardian Beasts attacked simultaneously.

Fei Yue emerged from the Void, kicking him several times.

When this interrogation ended, the Blood Race Commander was barely clinging to life, one breath away from the gates of hell.

Seeing them finally stop, he rolled and crawled to Gu Xing's feet:

"I'll tell! I'll tell everything!"

His voice was hoarse beyond recognition, fearful of being mistreated again if he was slow.

Trembling, he confessed everything without hiding anything.

From the Blood Race's internal turmoil to the movements of various factions, and even how this border town was raising humans—all was laid bare.

The more Gu Xing listened, the deeper his frown became.

This was nothing short of a classic rebellion script:

The Blood Race Ancestor was injured, and many Blood Princes joined forces intending to hunt down the Blood Ancestor to become the new Blood Ancestor.

However, the process failed.

Meanwhile, humans loyal to Lilith in the Blood-colored Church saw many Blood Princes rebel, and the Church Court Empress led a fierce conflict with the Blood Race.

In the end, neither side could triumph over the other.

Further complicated by Lilith's disappearance.

It created a stalemate.

But such a scenario was bitter for ordinary civilians.

Previously, ordinary Blood Race members were restrained by Lilith and dared not attack humans.

But now....

Without Lilith's restraint, all Blood Race members unleashed their true nature.

According to this Blood Race's description.

Now all humans in this city have been herded together and raised.

As food, to be disposed of as they please.

The Blood Race Commander finished explaining, trembling as he looked up to meet Gu Xing's icy stare.

"So, you treat humans as cattle for slaughter?"

Beneath the calm tone lay ultimate repressed killing intent.

The Blood Race Commander now suddenly realized——

The one before him was unmistakably human!

"M-Mercy, Sir! I can take you to..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xing's hand was already clutching his throat.

With a crisp "crack," the fleeting hope in those crimson pupils completely solidified, turning to ash which scattered in the wind.

Gu Xing slowly stood up, a trace of complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He hadn't expected that Blood Ancestor Lilith held such goodwill toward humans.

Under her restraint, this group of Blood Race members could coexist peacefully with humans.

But now...

Lilith's disappearance caused all order to collapse.

Yet this chaos became an opportunity for him.

Originally, he was troubled about obtaining the Light Divine Crystal and how to contend with the Blood Ancestor.

After all, this Blood Ancestor had previously desired the Divine Pattern in the Divine Secret Realm.

He suspected that the rumor of the Light Divine Crystal was deliberately spread by Lilith.

The aim was still for the Divine Pattern in his possession.

Fortunately, with the current turmoil, he could exploit the situation.

But before this, Gu Xing decided to first rescue the humans being raised in this border town.

Though unfamiliar, he couldn't stand idly by as a member of the Human Race.

...

At this moment, inside the church in the town's center.

Dim candlelight flickered, illuminating frightened faces.

Old men tightly hugged the children in their arms, and women silently wept.

All the town's humans were imprisoned in what should have been a sacred hall.

"Mom... I'm scared..."

"Hush... don't make a sound..."

The suppressed sobs echoed among the stone pillars, fear palpable among the crowd.

In front of the church, several Blood Race members lazily lounged on benches, scarlet liquid swirling in crystal glasses.

At their feet lay several still-warm corpses.

At this moment, their faces were filled with satisfaction.

"If it weren't for that woman's decree, we would never have lived side by side with these ants."

"Even protecting their safety! Really treated us like nannies?"

"Exactly, humans are just food for us, who knows what kind of insanity made the Blood Ancestor order us to protect these useless beings."

"She's not the Blood Ancestor anymore; when the Princes find her, the Blood Ancestor position will change!"

The Blood Race members discussed, casting glances over the humans.

Suddenly, one Blood Race member's gaze froze, having spotted something interesting.

His figure turned into blood mist, and upon reforming, he held a silver-haired little girl.

"When did this little thing sneak in? Never noticed her before!"

The Blood Race member scrutinized the silver-haired girl, puzzled.

Having occupied the town for years, they knew every human intimately.

"What's the act?" Another Blood Race member scoffed, "Just craving her blood, aren't you?"

The exposed Blood Race grinned horribly:

"Indeed, I love the blood of cute little things like her..."

His fangs suddenly elongated, glittering ominously in the candlelight.

Unexpectedly, the little girl merely stared at him blankly, her red eyes under the silver hair devoid of life, seemingly unaware of impending danger.

"Turns out it's a fool..."

"But that's good, I won't let you feel any pain!"

With that, he lunged to bite.

Only at that moment...

"Boom——!"

Amidst deafening noise, countless vines tore the church's dome apart.

Moonlight flooded in, illuminating the blood race's faces of absolute terror.

Their widened eyes reflected four figures standing in midair.

...
