Bab 778: Starved Beast

"Yuan? What are you doing, standing so far away?" Chu Liuxiang asked him after entering the building and noticing that he was standing all the way on the other side of the room.

"I wanted to make sure that I don't accidentally hurt you." Yuan sighed.

"Ever since I consumed the demon core, I have been getting these unhealthy thoughts and the urge to destroy everything around me, and I am having a hard time controlling these emotions. I am worried that I might hurt you if you get too close."

Hearing Yuan's words, Chu Liuxiang smiled. She closed the door behind her and started approaching him in a calm manner.

"As long as I can help you, I don't care even if you hurt me."

Once she was close enough, she opened her arms and embraced Yuan.

"See? Everything is fine. Now, tell me what you need help with."

However, before Yuan could even respond, Chu Liuxiang felt something hard poking her legs.
