The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 1040 942: Yu Beibei's Demonic Transformation

Mu Rongyiming's death shocked all of Huaxia. After all, they've never seen such a case; a living man strangled himself to death. Either he had mental issues, or he was possessed. The deceased belonged to the Murong Family, which added to the sensationalization of the news.

The local government placed great importance on this matter, establishing a special task force to solve the case within half a month. However, after checking all surveillance footage from the hotel, they couldn't find any clues. And since it's the peak time for Good Voice, they had no choice but to speed up the investigation discreetly.

Soon, they found that Mu Rongyiming's friends had vanished, as if into thin air. Even the surveillance footage from all hotels near West Lake couldn't reveal their presence. This puzzled them, since Mu Rongyiming disappeared with these friends at night. Who could delete all video records?

Yet, upon further checking, they found all the videos complete.

This shocked them even more: could ghosts really exist?

Huaxia's Good Voice was held by the beautiful lakeside of West Lake. Combined with a mysterious suicide case, it made Good Voice even more attractive. Suddenly, audiences nationwide turned their focus here, inadvertently advertising Good Voice. However, for the Murong Family who hosted Good Voice, Mu Rongyiming's death brought anger and tension.

That night, Mu Rongyiming's father, Murong Guangxian, personally came over.

The Murong Family didn't want Murong Guangxian involved, fearing it would affect Good Voice's hosting. But Murong Guangxian was adamant about coming to investigate, so the family set a condition: everything must be handled privately.

At that moment, Yu Beibei knelt on the hillside by West Lake while Yang Tian's soul floated in mid-air. He probed Yu Beibei's body with his Divine Sense and found a pure Soul Breath floating within her soul. He decided to help Yu Beibei because of that pure Soul Breath, potentially the purest soul he's encountered.

No matter how pure, a soul without cultivation is useless. The purity of the soul has nothing to do with one's cultivation.

Yet, in Yang Tian's mind, he recalled a Demon Manual he saw in the Demon Realm, knowing that pure souls could refine a Demon Technique, which could elevate one to a Demon Immortal per Demon Realm lore.

The Demon Manual wasn't much use to Yang Tian due to the dark nature of the Demon Path; cultivating it makes one unruly. But he can let Yu Beibei cultivate it because her soul is pure enough to withstand the unruly aura of the Demon Manual.

Thinking this, Yang Tian waved his hand, revealing the Demon Manual and said indifferently, "You're my slave now, so I'll teach you a Demon Path as a gift."

Yang Tian operated his Spiritual Breath, and the Demon Manual transformed into a Demon Aura and entered Yu Beibei's body.

Yu Beibei shuddered violently, her body stiffening, then her eyes turned blood-red. She clearly felt the Demon Manual turning into three demonic streams within her soul, continuously circling as if trying to devour her soul. This made her extremely uncomfortable, losing consciousness every time the demonic stream hit her soul.

But she dared not question, only resisting the demonic stream's devouring with all her might.

Yang Tian coldly snorted, "I know you're doubting the Demon Path I gave you. You're already my slave, so I wouldn't lie to you, but whether you can cultivate the Demon Path depends on your ability."

After speaking, Yang Tian's figure flashed, and he disappeared.

Yu Beibei knelt there for a long time, finally struggling to get up and heading towards the Good Voice hotel.

Meanwhile, Yang Tian returned to the hotel, where Ling Ying immediately asked, "Yang, I heard that Mu Rongyiming of the Murong Family, who organized Good Voice, died by killing himself—didn't you do it?"

Beside her, Eliza also looked over, "This Mu Rongyiming was Murong Yinghao's competitor, right? I heard Murong Yinghao came too, are you helping him eliminate competitors?"

Yang Tian shrugged, "Murong Yinghao did come, but Mu Rongyiming wasn't killed by me."

"Not by you? Then who killed him?"

Wu Zetian looked puzzled.

After all, news reports said Mu Rongyiming strangled himself. If Yang Tian wasn't behind it, then who?

Could there be other cultivators here?

Beside them, Chen Xiaoli suddenly said, "Big brother, just now I sensed a Demon Breath, what's the situation? I also felt a trace of residual Demon Breath on you..."

Yang Tian smiled, "Li, you're sharp, you saw right through it. Yes, a female contestant in Good Voice was exploited by Mu Rongyiming, and I gave her a Demon Manual."

"You gave a Demon Manual to a female contestant? What is this Demon Manual? Won't she become a demon?" Ling Ying was filled with doubt but mostly fear, "Any Demon Manual can make one unruly. Could this have serious consequences?"

"I saw her soul was exceptionally pure, so she should absorb the unruly aura from the Demon Manual." Yang Tian said.

"Pure soul?" Chen Xiaoli said, "Alright, I'll go to Good Voice tomorrow to check on this contestant!"

"We're going too! It's boring here, we'll go to Good Voice as Yang Tian's relatives." Ling Ying quickly said.

After all, Yang Tian passed the blind selection, chosen by a mentor. Next, he can start the group elimination round. Over the past month, Hangzhou was shocked by Mu Rongyiming's death, and everyone's focus was on the mysterious suicide case.

"Then everyone can go to the venue with me tomorrow!"

That night, Yang Tian and others prepared, and the next morning, they headed to Good Voice's building. After a month of blind selection, the four mentors selected enough contestants, with twelve contestants in each team.

Yang Tian and the others arrived at Good Voice's building and were warmly led to a VIP room by the staff, where Murong Yueyue had been waiting for some time. But when Yang Tian entered the VIP room, he saw a woman sitting quietly, none other than Yu Beibei, now exuding a powerful Demon Breath. Yang Tian probed with his Divine Sense, furrowed his brow, and was startled.

He clearly sensed that Yu Beibei's pure soul had been devoured by three demonic streams...
