Xuān Cāng Shàngshén would not let the female lead Bai Lian die, after all, it wouldn't bring him any benefits. He only wants to expose Lu Lin's true nature in front of Bai Lian. As long as they turn against each other, he will naturally save her before she dies.

  And if Bai Xiang is obstinately ignorant, he will choose to watch Bai Xiang die - even if it means giving up this world.

  In the end, Xuan Cang's condescending attitude was only because he had many worlds where he could accumulate aura, and Bai Lin was not his only female lead. If she were to infuriate him like the previous two worlds' female leads, he would rather let her die. So even though he knew that putting aside his pride and appeasing her might be more useful for Bai Lin, he still didn't want to abandon his dignity and dominance. His superficial personality's love for the female lead was mostly based on plundering, occupying, and controlling desires, and when it came to his inner self, he couldn't possibly have any genuine affection for these female leads who were completely different from him and looked down on him.

  He still hopes to achieve his desired victory through coercion and destruction.

  But this time, he felt he would win.

  ……

  Lu Linsheng had already eaten a lot of demons, but he didn't stop. Bai Ling stood at the foot of the demon corpse mountain and looked up for a long time, only to see him constantly devouring above. The more he ate, the more greedy he seemed, this situation made Bai Ling feel very ominous.

  She shouted his name from below, "Lu Linsheng!"

  He seemed to have not heard, still crazily swallowing, with blood pooling at the foot of the demon corpse mountain, Bai Ling lowered her head and looked at her white boots stained with blood.

  She didn't call out to Lu Linsheng again, but instead retreated to a distant place on the Demon Corpse Mountain, focusing her gaze upwards. That was where they had entered from, and if other places were impassable, perhaps only that place still held possibilities.

  She has a severe case of acrophobia, and although her masters and seniors would laugh at her awkward gait when she walks on the ground with a dragon shape, it's actually not something to be laughed at, because it's extremely frightening for her. Bai Xiang belongs to the most severe type of acrophobia, which may be genetic or caused by stimulation from her father when she was young, or maybe both. In her daily life, she completely avoids high places and tall buildings.

  If it's a mild case of acrophobia, people in high places may just feel dizzy and chat with like-minded people about "Female leads and male seconds", "hot web novels" or discuss favorite books with more book friends.
