Lan You shook his head. Faced with Bai Susu's situation, he didn't know what to do. All they could do was to stay by Susu's side and protect her. The rest was up to her.

Lan You had no other choice: "Susu is about to be promoted. She can only rely on herself at this time. We can't help her. If we force her to help, it may directly cause her to mutate."

Lan You glanced at Bai Mang who had rushed over and said, "Bai Mang, I'll have to trouble you to take your people to guard the surrounding area to prevent the leopard orcs from invading the tribe."

"I understand." Bai Mang nodded. When Bai Po left the tribe, he asked him to listen to Lan You and Cang Xiao. Now that Lan You gave him the task, he nodded in agreement.

After Bai Mang left, Lan You looked into the distance and muttered to himself, "I wonder how Mei Wuzhi and Bai Po are doing. Have they found the hiding place of the Red Eagles and Leopards?"

Cang Xiao fell silent, looking down at Bai Susu. He said in shock, "Lan You, something's wrong with Susu."

Upon hearing this, Lan You quickly rushed over to check, only to see a dark aura on Bai Susu's face. Under the light from the side, the dark aura became more and more obvious.

"Susu, hold on." Cang Xiao noticed that Bai Susu's breath was getting weaker and weaker. He held Bai Susu's hand, stayed by her side, his eyes fixed on her face.

He lowered his eyes, a little scared, afraid that something might happen to Susu, and tears could not stop flowing: "Susu..."

Lan You remained silent, with mist in his eyes. He suppressed the worry in his heart. They had to cheer up and not lose their composure at this time.

"Father..."

The sounds of animal cubs were heard from inside the house. Lan You thought of the animal cubs locked in the cellar. He hurried in to settle the cubs down, and then found some stones and wooden boards to block the damaged wall.

He looked at the transformed white tiger cub, Bai Yi, and warned him, "Bai Yi, you are the eldest brother. You must take good care of your younger brothers and sisters and don't let them run around."

Bai Yi: "Okay."

"Just stay on the first floor and call Father if you need anything, okay?"

The cubs were still too young to be left alone in the room, but the situation was urgent. The other old beasts, females and cubs in the tribe all hid, while the males went around looking for male leopards.

There were no extra people to take care of the cubs. Bai Yi and the other transformed cubs were only one year old. Everyone was confused, but they also knew that the situation was urgent.

Bai Yi nodded and said, "Don't worry, mermaid father. We will take good care of our other brothers and sisters."

The first group of transformed white tiger and fox cubs stood in the first row to protect their younger brothers and sisters. Lan You was very pleased. He touched the cubs' heads and went up to the second floor with a bow and arrow to continue checking the situation in the sky, fearing that there might be any unresolved male red eagles hiding in the dark waiting for an opportunity to strike.

……

[Have you thought it through? Accept me, and I will give you supreme power.]

It was pitch black around Bai Susu, with only some light where she and her inner demon were. Looking at the inner demon who looked exactly like her, she clenched her fists.

The inner demon has been tempting her, disturbing her thoughts: "Bai Susu, make a deal with me. Give me your body, and you will no longer suffer like this."

"Don't even think about it!" Bai Susu disagreed and kept resisting. She knew the consequences of making a deal with the inner demon.

Bai Susu was still a little frightened when she encountered this situation. She called out in her heart: System, is the system here?

She called the system, but she couldn't hear any sound from the system. At this time, the system kept responding to Bai Susu.

【Host, I am always by your side! 】

[Host, can you hear me? ]

From the very beginning, the system has been calling Bai Susu, but she was bewitched by her inner demons, blocking out the voices from the outside world and falling into confusion and fear.

Only when Bai Susu figures everything out, faces the fear in her heart, and confronts everything can she hear his voice.

As a personal system, the system can see everything clearly. Even though it knows that Bai Susu can't hear, the system still reminds her.

[Host, you are about to be promoted to a Five-Striped Beast. The inner demons you encounter are very powerful. If you are not careful, you will be devoured. Host, please be careful.]

The system kept calling out to Bai Susu, asking her to calm down: [Host, don't be deceived. This illusion is created by the inner demon based on the host's fear. It is used to break down the host's defenses. Host, hold on. Don't be afraid. Follow my instructions to defeat the inner demon...]

However, the system said a lot, but Bai Susu didn't hear a word. It was the first time Bai Susu faced such a situation and her heart sank.

What should she do?

She calmed down and remembered what the system had said before, that the inner demon was based on the thing that the orcs feared most in their hearts, and was used to crush the other party's mind. Once collapsed, they would agree to the deal, and would be devoured by the inner demon and disappear from the world, with their bodies taken away by the inner demon and mutated.

What she needs to do now is to stay calm. No matter what the inner demon says, she must not agree to it and find another opportunity to defeat the inner demon!

The inner demon looked at her, the evil intention on his lips becoming more and more intense: [Are you tired?]

Bai Susu's temper turned stubborn, and she sneered, "Whether I'm tired or not is none of your business."

The inner demon was stunned and continued to tempt her: "Bai Susu, you came to this strange world alone. You must feel helpless, lonely and scared, right? Do you miss your family?"

The voice of the inner demon was full of bewitching. Bai Susu was hypnotized unexpectedly. What the inner demon said was what she had hidden deep in her heart.

She was indeed lonely and helpless, and she missed her family in the other world.

She said dully, "I want to..."

Seeing Bai Susu being hypnotized, the inner demon seduced her step by step: "Do you want to reunite with your family? They are waiting for you in another world. They miss you very much and want to see you very much."

Bai Susu was also stunned and said: "I also want to see my family, but they..."

Before she finished speaking, the scene of her parents dying to save her flashed before her eyes again, and some fragments of memory emerged in front of her. In the scene, before her mother died, she had been holding Bai Susu and comforting her: "Susu, don't be afraid, mom and dad will always be with you.

Mom and Dad won't blame you. It's you who freed us. Susu, your parents can only help you up to this point. The rest of the way, you have to walk on your own.

Her parents were bitten by zombies while trying to save her. Her inner defenses were broken, and she collapsed. She pinched her thighs and told herself over and over again: "Bai Susu, you must be strong. Don't be deceived by your inner demon. This is an illusion deliberately created by your inner demon. Don't be afraid, don't be scared, and don't agree to anything she asks."

"My parents died trying to save me. Everything I see now is fake, all fake..."

She numbed herself and closed her eyes, but those fragments of memory reappeared in her mind again and again. In this illusion, she repeatedly experienced the pain of losing her loved ones.

She hugged her head in pain. The inner demon knew her weakness and had been tempting her.

The inner demon laughed and said, "It must be very painful to lose a loved one, right?"

"If you had been powerful at that time, you could have saved them instead of watching them die before your eyes. Do you want to change this?"
