A woman standing in the garden while her blood dripped onto the flowers, but the flowers that were supposed to prove her innocence did not blossom. She bled to death in the end.

Mo Fan would never forget that woman. The truth he had dug up was too poignant and heartbreaking!

“Her special character was also qualified as a Soul Frame of the Temple of Evils. It was the Red Demon who took away her soul!” Apas declared.

Mo Fan took a deep breath. It turned out that he had already been that close to the Red Demon’s trail before!

“Does that mean the Red Demon already has three of the four Souls of the Good?” Lingling persisted.

“I believe he has all four of them now. Senior Hunter Leng was the final piece of the puzzle. His soul was upgraded to a Soul Frame after Lu Kun’s death,” Apas conjectured.

“Why is that?” Mo Fan was still confused.

“The Red Demon must be throwing out nets. There are many potential candidates for the Souls of the Good or the Souls of the Evil. He might even be watching and conditioning them, as the odds of being upgraded to a Soul Frame aren’t one hundred percent. It’s all up to the Heavens.”

“For example, in Yuria’s case, if the truth had not been found out, people wouldn’t be aware of her loyalty. The whole Institute might still have despised her, thus there was a great chance her soul might have turned into a vengeful spirit, and an extremely powerful one, too!” Apas pointed out for them.

Every soul had uncertainties regarding its fate.

Senior Hunter Leng was no exception. There was no guarantee his soul would become the Soul of Righteousness. His soul could not be upgraded as long as Lu Kun was alive. If another soul was upgraded before his, he would no longer have been the Red Demon’s choice.

Therefore, it was possible that the Red Demon was observing and conditioning those souls. He had been pulling the strings behind the scenes to upgrade Senior Hunter Leng’s soul into a Soul of Righteousness!

It had disclosed Senior Hunter Leng’s job letter so someone might inherit his spirit and fulfill his final wish, freeing his soul to qualify as the Soul of Righteousness.

“Did we end up helping or harming Senior Hunter Leng?” Mo Fan suddenly asked in dismay.

“What you did was definitely helping Senior Hunter Leng. Whether or not the Red Demon was involved, he would still become a Soul Frame in the Temple of Evils. The Red Demon was only using him as a source of power to evolve into the Sacred Evil God.

“It’s like ascension, but not only does one have to be sacred, they need a lot of disciples who have made great contributions to the world. The souls are basically the Red Demon’s disciples. If they are upgraded to Soul Frames in the Temple of Evils, they are helping the Red Demon with its ascension,” Apas explained.

Mo Fan finally understood the big picture.

The first Red Demon had exceeded the little red Demon’s level, which was just an evil spirit. The first demon’s goal was to ascend as a god!

There were four gods in the Dark Plane: the God of Darkness, the God of the Undead, the God of the Shadow Tribe, and the Sacred Evil God.

Khufu was now the only God of the Undead.

The identity of the God of the Shadow Tribe remained unknown.

The Red Demon was trying to become the Sacred Evil God, one of the four gods of the Dark Plane!

It was the reason why the Queen of the Netherworld had strongly forbidden Mo Fan from investigating the fate of Yuria’s soul.

If Mo Fan kept looking, he would have provoked an existence that was very likely to become the new Sacred Evil God!

Mo Fan took a deep breath.

It was truly a huge operation. If the Red Demon became the Sacred Evil God, it would be an Emperor-level creature!

An Emperor was strong enough to threaten the Sacred City. The previous God of the Undead, Zhan Kong, had infiltrated the Sacred City alone and caused a huge massacre. The Sacred City did have a Pyrrhic victory in the end, but if the two had not willingly ended their lives, the bloodbath would not have been stopped so easily!

“Is it true that the Red Demon has collected all four of the Souls of the Good?” Mo Fan pressed.

“Mm, there’s something else you might have forgotten. There was a fiery bird which kept trying to fly higher into the sky in the Qinling Mountains after sustaining serious injuries over and over again. Its soul dispersed following its death,” Apas reminded him.

“I don’t think that was just a coincidence. Don’t tell me the Red Demon was following us!” Mo Fan blurted out in shock.

Apas shook her head and said, “It’s not following us. It’s just casting its nets wide. The fiery bird represented the Soul of Resolve, but it wasn’t upgraded to a Soul Frame in the Temple of Evils because the Red Demon found a better choice.”

“Why didn’t you tell me that back then?” Mo Fan complained.

“Because I didn’t realize it until now. The legend of the Temple of Evils is something that is passed down to us. We will only learn these things after we have grown to a certain level,” Apas puffed out her cheeks, displeased by Mo Fan’s suspicion.

“Are you saying that you’ve grown stronger after your hibernation?” Mo Fan noticed something important.

Apas turned her head away and ignored Mo Fan.

Couldn’t Mo Fan tell she had grown stronger? She was already a powerful Ruler-level creature. Her power was only suppressed by their unfair Contract, because Mo Fan’s own cultivation was too weak.

Apas had not lied to Mo Fan about the Sacred Evil God. She had unlocked some of the knowledge about the Temple of Evils during her hibernation. She had only learned these things because she was the direct descendant of Medusa. Other lesser demon creatures would not learn these secrets!

As a matter of fact, the birth of a new Sacred Evil God was closely related to the Medusa Tribe. The Medusa Queen was also a candidate to become the Sacred Evil God!

Apas would be quite happy if the Red Demon was reckless enough to take out her two sisters after collecting eight Soul Frames!

“To be frank, I don’t want the Red Demon to become the new Sacred Evil God,” Mo Fan declared firmly.

“You won’t be able to stop it. You didn’t even know you were used,” Apas pointed out to him.

“Even if I know I’m being used, I would still have done the job. I gave my promise to Lingling and Senior Hunter Leng, but it’s a different story if the Red Demon is trying to become the Sacred Evil God. I doubt the Red Demon has collected all four Souls of the Evil too, right?” Mo Fan pressed.

“If it was done collecting them, my two sisters wouldn’t be living peacefully in Africa,” Apas agreed.

“Lingling, what do you think?” Mo Fan asked her.

Lingling had been silent throughout the discussion. She was obviously thinking hard. She was joining the dots between what they had been through and Apas’ explanation of the legend of the Temple of Evils to find important clues.

“Stopping the Red Demon from collecting the four Souls of the Evil isn’t our concern for now. If the Red Demon truly wants to become the Sacred Evil God, the Archangel of the Sacred City will step forward to interfere with its plan,” Lingling deduced.

“So we are not going to investigate it?” Mo Fan was surprised.

Lingling shook her head and said, “This is already the best outcome I could hope for.”

It was the best ending for Senior Hunter Leng and Lingling.

The first Red Demon, Kazuaki, had already reached a greater height. It was both good and evil.

The clone it had left in the form of Lu Kun was a representation of its filth and greed. Senior Hunter Leng’s aim had been to eliminate Lu Kun!

“What Lingling is trying to say is that you might die if you keep investigating the Red Demon while you aren’t strong enough,” Apas interpreted for Mo Fan.

“Apas, you are starting to behave like a bad girl. Is your master being too kind to you?” Mo Fan lifted his hand and smacked Apas’ butt.

The fingerprints would definitely last on Apas’ tender skin until tomorrow!
