Chapter 161: Is She Really Blood Ancestor Lilith?!
The other side.
Inside a town inn within the Blood-colored Church's territory.
During this time, he swept through several towns with his three Guardian Beasts.
At this moment.
Gu Xing held the silver-haired little girl helplessly, trying to negotiate with her:
"Little one, would you like our older sisters to take you for a bath?"
As a Commander-level expert, he and his Guardian Beasts had long since been able to stay clean without washing.
But this little creature is different...
Days of travel have given her a faint odor.
Gu Xing wasn't a clean freak, but he didn't like carrying around a dirty child either.
Moreover, this little girl insists on sticking to him all the time.
Recently, he hasn't even had a chance to fight.
Yet, this was exactly what the Guardian Beasts preferred.
If Gu Xing doesn't fight, it means there won't be any danger.
"Hmm..."
The little girl, who usually appeared dazed, seemed to understand Gu Xing's words at this moment and decisively shook her head.
Then she pressed her little face tightly against Gu Xing's chest, unwilling to let go.
Gu Xing: "..."
Vera shrugged helplessly, indicating she couldn't help either.
She also didn't understand why this little girl would only get close to Gu Xing.
"Forget it..."
Gu Xing sighed, "I will do it!"
Upon hearing this, Vera's eyes suddenly lit up.
She looked at her petite figure, then glanced at the silver-haired little girl, and suddenly blurted out:
"Master~ I'm dirty too, can you wash me as well..."
Before she could finish speaking, Liu Li and Qing Shuang had already stopped her on both sides.
"Eh? Hold on!"
"Master, she seems to have a fever and is talking nonsense," Liu Li said, her face unchanged.
"We'll take her to 'clear her head,'" Qing Shuang coldly added.
Not giving Vera a chance to speak, the two had already dragged her out of the room quickly.
Witnessing this, Gu Xing twitched his lips.
He didn't understand why Vera, not being a match for Liu Li and Qing Shuang, still liked to act recklessly in front of them.
Shaking his head, he turned his gaze back to the silver-haired little girl.
Recently, he also discovered the source of his affinity.
He reached out to touch the divine pattern on his forehead.
It's not that he is fond of this little creature, but rather the divine pattern on his forehead has an affinity for this little one.
Finding no answer, his eyes turned towards the bathtub in the center of the room.
Giving a child a bath was a first in both of his lifetimes.
But at this moment, this girl only listens to him...
"Take off your clothes!"
The little one tilted her head, took two seconds to react, and then slowly untied her worn-out white dress.
Gu Xing swiftly scooped her up and gently placed her into the bathtub.
"Splash——"
Water splashed as the little creature sat stunned in the bathtub, silver hair wetly sticking to both sides of her cheeks, completely unable to understand what was next.
Gu Xing resignedly rolled up his sleeves and picked up a towel to start wiping her down.
What was all this...
...
Meanwhile.
A stream of blood-red light was streaking across the night sky at an astonishing speed.
It was Lilith's Spiritual Body, furiously chasing the body she had left behind.
"Damn it!"
Lilith gritted her silver teeth.
Though the last self-destruct was with full force, she was very aware——
Given the Demon God's power, he definitely wouldn't die.
It was the second time she had been forced into such a humiliating position:
The first time was in the Divine Secret Realm when humans destroyed her Blood Body, and now demons forced her to abandon her body again.
Just then, Lilith noticed something unusual.
The body she left should have been near the initial town, so why was the sensed position so far away now?
Was it taken by someone?
This thought made her heart tighten.
The body now lacked any self-preservation power, no different from an ordinary human child.
If it fell into malicious hands...
Soon, under her full speed, Lilith's Spiritual Body darted toward the sensed location.
She was so eager she didn't even observe her surroundings, charging straight into the body she sensed.
"Hmm?"
While wiping the silver-haired girl's hair, Gu Xing suddenly frowned.
He seemed to perceive a slight spiritual fluctuation.
But scanning around, he found nothing.
An illusion?
He shook his head and turned to fetch clothes for the little girl.
He didn't notice, however, at that moment of turning away, the little creature behind him was undergoing a startling transformation.
Crimson eyes began to form, delicate features grew even more flawless.
When Lilith's consciousness fully awakened, the first thing she felt was...
This body...
Had it been washed?
Her vision gradually cleared, and the first thing she saw was a strange hotel room, and...
A black-haired young man turning his back to her.
Human?
No way!
The sudden trembling from the divine pattern within made Lilith's pupils shrink abruptly.
When she saw the golden pattern on the forehead of the person before her, a hint of greed instantly ignited in her crimson eyes.
Divine Pattern holder!
The same human from the Divine Secret Realm.
Such luck indeed!
If she could consume this human's blood, at least thirty percent of her power could be restored!
This thought made her show her fangs without hesitation, and her legs suddenly exerted force——
"Whoosh!"
Her petite frame shot toward Gu Xing like an arrow, sharp fangs aiming directly at his carotid artery.
However, Gu Xing turned at that very moment.
Hmm?
The Commander-level reaction speed made him instinctively reach out, accurately grabbing the shoulders of the small figure lunging toward him.
Lilith's sharp fangs were only inches from his neck but could no longer move forward.
Holding the suddenly transformed little creature, Gu Xing was completely dumbfounded.
"What the hell!"
The formerly adorable human child was now glaring at him, clawing aggressively.
Crimson eyes, sharp fangs, with small bat wings fluttering behind her.
The only thing unchanged...
Was her bare body!
Lilith hung mid-air, her little legs kicking futilely.
She then realized a serious problem...
The newly merged body didn't have any strength!
Even her power was almost nonexistent, now only slightly stronger than ordinary human children.
"Let me go!"
She threatened with bared teeth, albeit with a somewhat cute aggression.
Gu Xing's lips twitched; he casually grabbed a bedsheet and wrapped the little creature like a dumpling.
This was clearly a member of the Blood Race!

Gu Xing stared intensely at the information jumping off the attribute panel, his pupil shrinking violently.
The striking text nearly made him bite his tongue...
What kind of joke was this?!
He mechanically lowered his head, looking at the bundle that was still wriggling.
The silver-haired girl he picked up, bathed and dressed, turned out to be...
Blood Ancestor Lilith?!
