Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793: Desires

Xiong Zi Ying pulled Tuzi AoFen back, subtly cautioning him against any rash actions, while Huang Bai Xing and Dongfang Moqing stood silently, their expressions betraying nothing as they regarded the intruder.

"Why are you here?" Shenlian Yingyue demanded, her frown deepening with palpable annoyance, a stark contrast to the worry she felt within.

"Why can’t I be here? Did you think you owned this world?" the figure laughed, playful amusement dancing in his eyes. The bemusement of the moment felt like a veil, hiding the darker realities that loomed over their lives.

The atmosphere was charged with tension; the stakes higher than anyone could easily comprehend. Each member of the circle steeled themselves for what was to come, the air thick with unspoken alliances and unaddressed grievances, their world ever teetering on the edge of chaos with the ever-unpredictable Shen Xian unsettling the balance.

"And what did I tell you? Did you turn a deaf ear to my warning?" The person’s laughter suddenly ceased; he tilted his head with a strange but gloomy smile when he noticed her hands were being held by Shenlian Yinzhu, Jun Mu Yang, and Zhiyi.

Her body tensed as she recalled his warning, not to let any man touch her, whether that man was her husband, brother, or companion.

"And these male beasts too. Woman, why do you always contract with male beasts?" Shen Xian laughed as he turned his face to look at Xie Xie, Feng Huang, Bing Xue, Tian Tian, Zhizhi, and Huan Huan. He deliberately ignored Xiao Mei, who had transformed into a male but was still a kid, as well as Xiao Nian, who was a cute teenage girl.

Xiao Yun, Xiao Li, Xiao Lan, Hong Zuan, Lu Long, and Xiao Qiu were also overlooked.

(Xiao Li, Xiao Lan, and Hong Zuan had already returned to their beast forms.)

"Do these men plan to seduce you, their master? It’s quite ridiculous and amusing, but can your small body bear the weight of so many men?" He disliked the idea of a woman surrounded by males. His words sounded harsh and full of insult, but to him, lust was a natural part of being human. He could not conceive of anything pure in the relationship between male and female.

In more nuanced depictions, demons viewed human lust as a reflection of their own nature. They possessed a deep understanding of human desires and recognized them as both strengths and weaknesses. Mostly, from the demons’ perspective, love and affection were dismissed as illusions created by lust.

Demons never denied their desires, such as lust and greed between genders. Unlike humans who often denied and concealed their desires beneath pure and hypocritical masks, demons openly displayed their lustful and cruel nature, unashamed to discuss lust, greed, jealousy, and more.

The crowd was instantly enraged as this man insulted her; their faces twisted with frustration and disgust at Shen Xian.

"What are you talking about? I don’t understand. And don’t slander them; they are my partners." Her tone was as cold as a frigid winter. She would not allow anyone to view her partners in such a light.
