Y City, on Tonghua Street.

After being stunned by a fart from Tang Chao, the Soul Devouring Beast took ten minutes to recover. "Moo!" it bellowed, and its deflated body lying on the road instantly puffed up into a ball.

"The Soul Devouring Beast is awake!" Tang Jing, who was hiding in a building nearby and keeping an eye on the beast, said excitedly.

Xie Xiaofeng frowned and grunted thoughtfully. He wondered if the Soul Devouring Beast, being formed of gas, might be particularly sensitive to smells? Perhaps that's why Tang Chao's fart had been enough to knock it out.

"Moo!" The Soul Devouring Beast's cries grew louder, and a chill radiated from its black-spotted eyes as it filled with rage, smoke billowing from its nostrils. It turned its head, looking toward the brightly lit, bustling area of Y City, as though searching for food.

"What do we do?" Tang Jing asked anxiously, "When will my brother and Chen Hao be back?"

Helplessly, Xie Xiaofeng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Just wait, your brother and Chen Hao should be back soon!"

"Moo!" The Soul Devouring Beast howled as it floated forward, drifting toward the densely populated commercial streets of Y City. Tang Jing clenched her teeth in urgency, not daring to imagine the scene if the Soul Devouring Beast reached the commercial street—the death toll would be catastrophic!

Suddenly, a piercing wind arose! Even hidden in the room of the building, Tang Jing and Xie Xiaofeng could feel the wind's ferocity through the violent trembling of the glass in front of them. Then, they saw a woman clothed in white stepping on the head of the Soul Devouring Beast.

In this world, no one except a Yin Soul could be light enough to step on the head of a Soul Devouring Beast. And through their Yin Yang Eyes, Tang Jing and Xie Xiaofeng realized this woman was not a Yin Soul.

"Ah!" Xie Xiaofeng gasped, unable to help asking, "Who is this woman? She can step onto a mount of gas so lightly. Could there really be immortals who can ride clouds and control mist in this world?"

"Not an immortal!" Tang Jing looked sternly at the woman, "If I'm not mistaken, she must be the legendary Wind Girl?"

"Wind Girl?" Xie Xiaofeng looked puzzled, "A woman like the wind?"

"Moo!" The Soul Devouring Beast roared furiously after being stepped on by the Wind Girl.

The Wind Girl glared at the Soul Devouring Beast, her eyes sharp as knives, and asked in a stern voice, "Was it you who swallowed the Shadow Demon?"

"Moo!" The Soul Devouring Beast roared again. Unable to speak or show expressions, it could only express its rage at this moment.

With a light jump, the Wind Girl conjured a strong gust beneath her feet and charged at the Soul Devouring Beast. Immediately, the green gas that made up the beast's body scattered, blown away in all directions by the wind.

The sound of the wind was sharp and cold as the Wind Girl vanished from sight.

When the winds had fallen and the gas had reassembled itself into a lump after a while, the Wind Girl suddenly reappeared in the middle of the green gas. In the blink of an eye, she turned into a fierce whirling wind, stirring up the green gas that formed the Soul Devouring Beast into chaos, preventing it from regaining its shape.

From a distance, it looked like a green tornado!

Seeing this, Xie Xiaofeng couldn't help but remark, "So wind can counter the Soul Devouring Beast!"

"Yes, that's right!" Tang Jing agreed, "The Soul Devouring Beast's body is made of gas, so it can be dispersed by strong winds! Although the Wind Girl can't kill it, she can prevent it from reforming."

All of a sudden, the green tornado dissipated. It wasn't until the Soul Devouring Beast had reformed into a huge ball of gas that the Wind Girl reappeared, stepping on its head once more.

"Moo moo!" the Soul Devouring Beast howled, its voice no longer filled with anger but instead heavy with sorrow, as if pleading for the Wind Girl to spare it.

Wind Girl lowered her head, glaring at the Soul Devouring Beast's already dimmed black-patch eyes with a gaze still as sharp as a knife. She said with a harsh voice, "Cough up the Shadow Demon! Although I can't kill you, I can chop off one of my arms, turn it into a fierce wind to churn around you, making it impossible for you to ever revert back!"

"Moo! Moo!" The voice of the Soul Devouring Beast became deeper and more sorrowful, almost like crying.

"Are you going to spit out the Shadow Demon or not?" Wind Girl's voice now carried a barely suppressed murderous intent, matching the look in her eyes at this moment.

"Moo!" The Soul Devouring Beast let out a sudden startled bellow, as billowing cyan smoke poured out of its black-patch nostrils like surging waves.

Wind Girl let out a disdainful snort and with a flick of her sleeve whipped up a gust of wind in front of her, blowing the rolling cyan smoke back into the Soul Devouring Beast's nostrils.

While Tang Jing and Xie Xiaofeng were watching the battle between Wind Girl and the Soul Devouring Beast intently, all of a sudden, two hands landed on their shoulders. They were startled into trembling and immediately turned around, only to see Tang Chao standing behind them, which relaxed the tense strings in their minds.

"Brother!" Tang Jing's tone was filled with reproach, "You almost scared us to death!"

Tang Chao scratched his head helplessly with a bitter face, "Our footsteps weren't light at all, didn't you hear us?"

"Ah!" Xie Xiaofeng sighed with sullenness. After a pause, he and Tang Jing almost simultaneously asked, "Where are Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao?"

Tang Chao looked towards the window and said, "Downstairs!"

Tang Jing and Xie Xiaofeng turned their heads only to see that Chen Hao had already reached behind the Soul Devouring Beast; and Ye Yuqiao was hiding behind a wall.

"Beauty!" Chen Hao shouted towards Wind Girl who was standing atop the Soul Devouring Beast.

Wind Girl looked back, then vanished.

"I was just about to come looking for you!" Wind Girl's voice suddenly sounded in Chen Hao's ear, and then she materialized in front of Chen Hao. "You lied to me, didn't you? The Soul Devouring Beast never swallowed the Shadow Demon!"

Chen Hao turned around. Looking at Wind Girl, he couldn't help but feel pity for her as he recalled the words the Shadow Demon had entrusted to him before it left. He really wanted to tell Wind Girl what the Shadow Demon had said, but right now, he needed to deceive Wind Girl to help him with a favor.

Seeing Chen Hao silent for a long time, Wind Girl grew unhappy. Her light yet icy hand reached for Chen Hao's neck again and she demanded, "Did you lie to me?"

Chen Hao shook his head repeatedly, bringing the small wooden box he was holding in front of Wind Girl.

Wind Girl hesitated for two seconds before taking the small wooden box from Chen Hao's hands, then asked, "What's inside?"

"It's a Yin Soul worm!" Chen Hao explained, his voice hoarse from Wind Girl's grip on his throat. "This bug acts like a laxative. As long as the Soul Devouring Beast absorbs this worm, it will expel all the Yin Souls it has absorbed these days..."

Chen Hao wanted to say they would be expelled or ejected, but fearing Wind Girl would take offense, he left his sentence unfinished.

As he expected, Wind Girl indeed looked very displeased upon hearing this. Who in the world would want their loved one to be pulled out from the stomach of some monster?

At that moment, the Soul Devouring Beast suddenly transformed into a cyan stream of air and sped away.

"Hmph!" Wind Girl sneered, "Nothing in this world can be faster than me!"

No sooner had she spoken than Wind Girl had already moved instantly in front of the stream of air that the Soul Devouring Beast had turned into, and then she transformed into a gust of wind...
