That night, became a demon!

Two years ago, at the beginning of summer, late at night in Lujiagou.

The first thunderstorm of the summer came without warning. The first half of the night was still filled with a bright moon and stars, but suddenly the wind picked up in the second half of the night. Within moments, dark clouds covered the sky and lightning split through it like a fork. Then came rolling thunder and raindrops fell like beans hitting against surfaces.

Soon enough, ankle-deep water flooded over ground level.

On such a rainy night, few people would venture outside their homes.

Most were sleeping soundly inside their rooms.

However, amidst this pouring rain on top of a hill in Lu Family's courtyard there was someone groping around for something despite being drenched by heavy rainfall.

He paid no attention to getting soaked by raindrops falling from above; his mind only had one name on it.

But he ultimately failed to find who he was looking for. He grew anxious and helpless as well as lost and panicked.

He didn't want to leave just yet so he walked towards the front yard where he faintly saw dim light coming from behind one windowpane - that belonged to Lü Dakun's bedroom where his wife also slept beside him

Lü Dakun was head of household for Lu Family; surely he knew about Xiaoping's whereabouts best?

That person never intended to force Lü Dakun into revealing Xiaoping's location because back then they lacked courage; all they wanted was eavesdrop on what Lü Dakun said hoping that maybe they could get some clues out of it instead

As it turned out though when that person listened closely enough after approaching closer than before they heard something extremely shocking:

First off they heard Lü Dakun's wife ask: "Master have you taken care everything?"

Lü Dakun replied: "Don't worry everything has been taken care off."

Hearing Lü Dakun's words, his wife grew worried and asked: "Master, are you sure we won't get into trouble? This isn't the old days anymore. If someone finds out about this it could be a capital offense."

"Women have long hair but short sightedness; they're brave only with their fingers," Lü Dakun sneered. "I bought that girl before she even had teeth and kept her hidden in our backyard all these years. Only a few people in the village know of her existence so what's there to worry about?"

"But aren't we being too cruel?" Lü Dakun's wife continued to hesitate.

Hmph, what's so cruel about it? You're only concerned about her pain. What about Xiaolian? He died at a young age and you forgot how you cried back then? Think about him, he's been lying on that mountain for many years now. As parents, if we don't do something for him, how can we face ourselves? Moreover, once this relationship is established, not only will Xiaolian have happiness below us but our whole family will also benefit from it. Do you remember what the fortune teller said back then? The place where we buried Xiaolian is not an ordinary spot; it's a double Yin-Yang auspicious site. Now that we've buried this girl there too, they'll become the dual ancestral gods protected by the energy of the land and protect our family for generations to come. This is a great strategy; understand old lady?" Lu Dakun spoke with pride.

As Lu Dakun was speaking smugly, suddenly there was a loud noise as someone smashed open the window on the wall and rushed towards him with a shiny axe in hand.

"Lu Dakun! I'm going to kill you!" The person roared angrily as he swung his axe towards Lu Dakun who instinctively raised his arm to block it resulting in his left arm being chopped off.

"Ah - help! Murder!" Lu Dakun screamed in agony while clutching his bleeding stump as his wife ran away screaming in terror.

"Where is Xiaoping?! Where is she?! Where - " The attacker grabbed Lu Dakun by the neck and demanded to know where Xiaoping was buried just so he could save himself.

Go to hell!" The figure shouted, gripping the axe handle with both hands and swinging it towards Lu Dakun. However, Lu Dakun rolled suddenly and dodged the attack. Then, when he tried to pursue and continue his attack, members of the Lu family arrived.

Seeing this situation, the figure could only grit their teeth and escape by jumping out of a window.

The rain continued to pour down as flash floods raged on.

The figure went against the current of the flood, stumbling along until they finally climbed up to an old banyan tree at the top of Nanshan Mountain.

There was a large tomb there; although new soil had been covered with weeds and decorations on top of it, under heavy rain it still collapsed in a big chunk.

The figure rushed over frantically, digging into the soil on top of the tomb with both hands.

"Xiaoping! Don't die! Hold on! Sobbing... Xiaoping wait for me... Xiaoping--"

As they dug through dirt layer by layer while crying out loud,

"Crackling - Crackling - "

A lightning bolt pierced through like a sharp sword across sky-high mountains before striking fiercely onto that old banyan tree. It sparked flames and smoke which were then extinguished by heavy raindrops soon after.

After who knows how long has passed since then, finally breaking through all layers of dirt covering it up did they manage to pry open that coffin lid from within its depths

"Splash-splash-"

Rain poured heavily onto that coffin lid making dense sounds akin to continuous wooden fish strikes

Gritting their teeth tightly while holding onto an axe in hand did they swing fiercely towards that coffin lid again and again...

One time... two times... three times… countless times later did those pieces fly everywhere as if sawdust filling up every corner around them completely shattering apart!

Then trembling arms reached inside pulling out a black sack, and with shaking hands did they untie it.

As the sack loosened up, a girl's figure appeared. Her mouth was stuffed with rags while her whole body was tied up tightly with ropes.

She had been dead for quite some time now; her face was purple-red and iron-blue while her body had already stiffened.

The figure held onto her tightly, glaring at the sky as they let out an evil wolf-like howl.

"Xiaoping, I will definitely kill them to avenge you!"

That night...they became demonic!
