Chapter 12 Cold Moon Palace
"Wow, wow, wow, boss, please take me with you!"
Even after becoming an immortal for so long, Zhang Huan had never been to the Heavenly Court, let alone the Nine Heavens, and had never even been to the celestial palace of the heavenly immortals.
This time, Guanghan Fairy invited the boss to go play, so I shamelessly tagged along to take a look.
The immortal realm is actually not much different from the mortal realm; both require connections. Without connections, one can only cultivate on their own. With connections, one can go places or embark on a secret realm adventure. With luck, one can ascend in a single bound.
"Of course, I'll bring you along."
So urgent, are they not together? If you recognize Zhang Huan as a friend, you won't abandon him. Although Chang'e is a rare beauty, brotherhood should not be broken. If you want to go to Guanghan Palace, go together. Besides, it's impossible to be alone with Chang'e. Not only is there the Jade Rabbit in Guanghan Palace, but also Wu Gang watching closely on the side.
"Nothing, I originally invited you both to come along. I don't have many close friends in the Heavenly Court, so it's rare for Brother Ye to come and keep me company and chat." Most importantly, Ye Qingxuan accepted her invitation.
Guanghan Fairy felt secretly delighted, and she wasn't too unhappy even with two unrelated people tagging along.
The unrelated nine infant snorted coldly. This woman was clearly trying to flirt with his boss. Looking at her smiling face, so full of joy, she was like a blooming flower, it was simply...
It's just...unbelievable!
Can't find a good adjective, nine infant can only silently criticize in my heart.
Seeing Ye Qingxuan chatting and laughing with someone, nine infant secretly curses the seductive beauty!
But he didn't dare to speak out openly. If the boss got upset, it wouldn't be as simple as just getting beaten up. Although he could take a beating, nine infant indicated that he was not immune to pain, especially considering that being beaten up by Ye Qingxuan would definitely be very painful, as he had already experienced before! "Then I'll thank the fairy."
How to say that I also borrowed the limelight from Ye Qingxuan, but now Zhang Huan's appearance to express gratitude makes it seem like being invited by Guanghan Fairy is a great honor.
"Let's go."
With a sly smile, Chang'e looked at Ye Qingxuan with silky eyes, startling the latter.
Wow!
Has the fairy been so thirsty for hundreds of years without getting married?!
It's a good thing to bring Zhang Huan along, in case the situation doesn't look good, at least there's a shield!
At this moment, Ye Qingxuan felt a bit of regret, but going back on his word halfway through was not the behavior of a mature man, so he could only grit his teeth and carry on. Fortunately, Chang'e's abnormal behavior was only temporary, and she quickly returned to her knowledgeable and reasonable demeanor. This put Ye Qingxuan at ease. It seemed that the earlier aggressiveness was just an illusion!
Guanghan Palace is extremely cold as the name suggests.
However, Ye Qingxuan has a different physique and doesn't feel anything at all.
Chang'e lives here all year round and is protected by spiritual energy, so she is not afraid of the severe cold at all.
Ancient monster nine infant and Zhang Huan need not be mentioned. Only ordinary people would fear the severe cold. In the eyes of immortals, ordinary weather changes are just fleeting clouds, not worth mentioning.
To say that they are not afraid is simply because they have not reached the critical point of the immortal body. Once that line is crossed, even with spiritual energy protecting the body, they will still feel uncomfortable.
The immortal palace is shrouded in mist, with a vast expanse of white everywhere, occasionally with a few trees drifting by.
Chang'e, accompanied by Ye Qingxuan and Luffy, swiftly arrived at the gate of the fairy palace, riding on clouds and mist.
"We're here. The fairy palace is a bit simple, I hope Brother Ye won't mind," she said, smiling slightly, a hint of embarrassment coloring her cheeks.
Ye Qingxuan comes from a place of great cultivation, and his profound abilities are unmatched. His residence is also quite impressive, making his own Guanghan Palace seem rather humble in comparison. "No, no, Guanghan Palace is quite nice," he said.
Take a look at this magnificent fairy palace, Ye Qingxuan's mouth started twitching.
If this is considered shabby, then what is considered high-class?
Judging by the looks of it, Ye Qingxuan feels that Yaochi Queen Mother of the West's fairy mansion is not as grand as Guanghan Palace here, it's just that it's really desolate.
I've been here for a while, and other than a few rabbits hopping around, I haven't seen anyone else at all. It's so quiet that it's almost eerie. "Do you usually live here alone?"
Living alone in such a large fairy palace, I actually feel a little scared when I think about it. No wonder Chang'e advised me not to be picky. Perhaps she was afraid that there would be no one to serve me. It's impossible for me to live alone with Ye Qingxuan, and it's impossible to bribe him with money! What's the point?
Do you want a bed that's tens of meters wide to sleep at night?
Or do you want to spend more than ten minutes looking for a bathroom when you wake up here?
Why bother with all this fuss!
"Yeah, I have raised several rabbits and I usually talk to them."
"Oh, I see."
Counting them, there are only a few rabbits, less than a handful!
"Didn't they say that rabbits have a strong reproductive ability? Why aren't your rabbits reproducing here?"
If they were reproducing, there should be at least seven or eight litters...
Well, Ye Qingxuan feels like he's getting off track."
Chapter 13 Guanghan Palace Day Trip
"Boss, what are you talking about? These rabbits are all female, they have no reproductive ability without males, unless..."
The second half of the sentence Zhang Huan deliberately didn't say out loud, giving Ye Qingxuan a meaningful look, which made the latter's whole body covered in goosebumps, falling to the ground.
Hiss~
Could this guy be thinking of impure things?
What kind of immortal appearance is this?!!! Fortunately, Zhang Huan only said "unless" and didn't continue, otherwise Ye Qingxuan would have changed his view of the immortals here. The colorful colors are not as brilliant as his thoughts!
"Hey hey hey, who are you all, don't you know that ordinary people are not allowed to enter the Guanghan Palace... Guanghan Fairy, why are you here?"
A man came in banging a broken gong and shouting loudly, with a determined look on his face, wanting to defend the territory of the Guanghan Palace from outside intrusion. But when he walked in, he saw Chang'e standing there, staring at him with a cold gleam in her eyes!
"Ahem, um... Fairy, weren't you supposed to be at Kunlun Mountain? Why did you come back so early?"
The man was none other than Wu Gang. He had been chopping trees outside and came in when he heard a sound from inside the Moon Palace. Little did he know that he would walk into such a misunderstanding. Chang'e probably hates him even more now...
"Is he your friend?"
Although Ye Qingxuan had some idea who the burly man in front of him was, he still had to pretend not to know, otherwise it would seem like he knew everything and would cause misunderstandings.
"No, he's the one chopping trees next door. Actually, I don't know him very well."
Gently pulling up Ye Qingxuan's sleeve, Chang'e spoke softly, afraid that the person in front of her would misunderstand her relationship with Wu Gang. "Brother Ye, you must believe me!" Afraid that he wouldn't believe her, she emphasized her tone. "Um..."
I'm just talking casually, no need to take it so seriously!
When he heard the words of Guanghan Fairy, Wu Gang was first stunned, then a touch of desolation flashed in his eyes, "Since you are a friend of the fairy, I shouldn't disturb you here."
With that, Wu Gang picked up his axe from the ground and walked out, feeling dejected.
A little episode passed quickly, strolling around Moon Palace and feeling like it's just the same, big as always, with not a soul in sight on the road.
In the end, Ye Qingxuan concluded that if he lived here for a long time, he would definitely go crazy.
"When are we leaving?"
Look, even Zhang Huan feels that Guanghan Palace is very boring.
It's really regrettable how excited we were at the beginning, and now we're regretting it. But Chang'e is still excited, laughing and talking, and she hasn't noticed that the two people and a snake behind her have slowly fallen behind.
"Let's sneak away quietly."
While Guanghan Fairy wasn't paying attention, Ye Qingxuan secretly took them and slipped away.
Moon Palace is so big, if we keep wandering like this, our legs might break...
Rumors are really unreliable!
Thought Moon Palace was so great, but in the end... sigh, better not to mention it!
After coming out, looking at the boundless white clouds below, Ye Qingxuan remembered something very important.
Sigh, I don't think I can ride the clouds and mist, can I?
"What kind of person dares to trespass into the forbidden Moon Palace!"
A soft and petulant voice sounded, with a hint of ferocity, "Stop right there, trying to escape will only make things worse!"
Seeing Ye Qingxuan and the others' posture, Jade Rabbit thought they were trying to escape, so she hurried over to stop them, even summoning her magical weapons.
"I said, have you misunderstood something? Do we look like bad people to you?"
At this point, nine infant had already disguised himself as a small snake, coiling steadily around Ye Qingxuan's wrist. When needed, he would come out without the need for his master to call him.
Seeing that this rabbit demon didn't seem threatening, he decided to restrain the imposing aura of the great demon beast on himself and began to rest with his eyes closed.
"Yeah, seeing you, a young girl, do we really need to lie to you?" Zhang Huan also chimed in. He had intended to say something serious, but when he saw the newcomer was a cute girl, the words at the tip of his tongue abruptly swallowed back down.
"So, how did you two end up here in the forbidden area? Don't you know that Moon Palace is off-limits? Normally, people aren't allowed to enter. If the fairy comes back and sees you wandering around Moon Palace, she definitely won't let you off easily!"
Little Beak blabbered on and on, Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but wonder if they were still inside Guanghan Palace, and the door they just went out of was just one of its doors?
Damn, why build such a huge palace!
Just to show off!
"You said you wanted to see the fairy, is it Chang'e, the owner of Guanghan Palace?"
Before the cute girl could answer, Ye Qingxuan continued, "We were just invited as guests by Chang'e and are now preparing to leave. We won't make things difficult for you."
"Oh, I see. Then I'll see you off."
On the road, Ye Qingxuan also knew that this cute girl was Jade Rabbit, and unexpectedly, she was quite adorable.
Her chubby cheeks made people want to pinch them, and she had a lively personality, truly living up to her rabbit nature, hopping around and very endearing.
After bringing the person to a mountain peak, Jade Rabbit seemed to be in a hurry, "I'll just leave you here, I have something to attend to as well."
After finishing speaking, I was about to leave, but was stopped by Ye Qingxuan, "We can help with important matters. Where are you going?"
Chapter 14 Heading to the Demon Realm
After leaving Guanghan Palace, Ye Qingxuan still didn't know where to go. Following the routine of taking it step by step, isn't this just like falling asleep and being handed a pillow?
Of course we have to go see the bustling! Um, it seems a bit unkind to think like this... "Are you... are you really going?"
Jade Rabbit took a look at Ye Qingxuan and shook his head when he saw that he had no spiritual power, "I am heading to the demon realm, it's no use for you to come along with no cultivation."
Even if there is a Hermit-Immortal by his side, if the Hermit-Immortal can't even defeat it, how can he go to the demon realm to help himself?
But they are still well-intentioned, Jade Rabbit did not mean to look down on them, just expressed his gratitude in a tactful way.
"You are friends of the fairy, if something happens, I won't be able to explain to the fairy." This time she rushed to the demon realm to save people, not to have fun in the past. Besides, the people in the demon realm don't really like the fairy realm. She has to go there secretly. After all, she is a fairy who has cultivated into an immortal, so even if she is discovered, it won't be a big problem. If Zhang Huan, a hermit-immortal, can't win, he can still run away, but Ye Qingxuan, a mortal, probably won't be enough in the demon realm!
Shaking his head, the Jade Rabbit indicated that he didn't want to burden Ye Qingxuan and the others by following them. "Even if I'm just a mortal, I'm a different kind of mortal. Trust me, I can definitely help you when the time comes." That is, if I feel like it!
As he sized up the Jade Rabbit in front of him, Ye Qingxuan recalled that in mythology, the Jade Rabbit wasn't actually a bad person, at least not doing anything to interfere with fate.
Forget it, isn't going to the demon realm just to see the bustling scene? If Jade Rabbit has ulterior motives, wouldn't it be better to cause more chaos?
Ye Qingxuan is unaware of Jade Rabbit's bad intentions and even feels a sense of goodwill towards his sense of justice.
"Never mind, you can come with me, but don't cause trouble for me."
I am alone, and if something unexpected happens, perhaps Ye Qingxuan and the others can really help. So it doesn't matter if I bring them along. I can just find a way to hide the aura of that mortal.
"Don't worry, I promise not to cause trouble," Ye Qingxuan thought to himself.
"Boss, are we really going to the demon realm?"
The three realms of humans, gods, and demons have always refrained from interfering with each other, unless necessary. Generally, immortals rarely return to the demon realm. The demons who have not become immortals are all unreasonable and rely solely on their brute strength. Even if you are in the right, it's like a scholar encountering soldiers in that place.
When Zhang Huan expressed his concerns, Ye Qingxuan looked at him without any change in expression. Suddenly, he remembered that this person's cultivation was unfathomable, so profound that even the Queen Mother of the West wanted to befriend him and he could easily defeat people like nine infant. Did he still need to fear the barbarians of the demon realm?
This person would resort to using force at the drop of a hat, so Zhang Huan was no longer worried.
What is he worried about?
What should be worried about are those little animals in the demon world. No one can predict this person's temper!
After reaching an agreement with Jade Rabbit, the group traveled through the clouds and mist to the Mount Buzhou vein.
At this moment, the sky above Mount Buzhou is clear, with birds circling as if it were a paradise. However, Ye Qingxuan looked around for a long time but still couldn't find the Imperfect Circumference Pillar. This is a bit strange. Could it be that the world here is not what he originally thought it was? You could say that the characters inside have everything, and if that's the case, many details have been changed.
After thinking for a while, Ye Qingxuan couldn't figure it out and had to ask, "Mount Buzhou has a Sky Pillar, right? Where is it?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Huan and Jade Rabbit both widened their eyes, with Zhang Huan even daring to come over and extend his "magic hand," saying, "Are you not feeling well? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Through this exchange, Ye Qingxuan finally understood that Mount Buzhou never had a Sky Pillar to begin with.
Sorry, perhaps it's because Zhang Huan and the others are too young, and there are some things they don't fully understand. So they don't know that Mount Buzhou actually has a Sky Pillar, but it was accidentally broken later on.
Of course, all of this is just Ye Qingxuan's own speculation. He doesn't really want to figure it out, so he didn't ask much in the end.
However, when they were just talking, the nine infant hanging on Ye Qingxuan's wrist moved a bit, and then returned to its original state.
Based on intuition, Ye Qingxuan believes that Nine Infant has something on his mind. After some thought, since he is an ancient monster, he must have experienced many things. Ye Qingxuan wonders what role Nine Infant played in the battle at the Sky Pillar. However, he decides that it's not necessary to understand everything and that there will be opportunities to discuss this issue in the future. In Ye Qingxuan's view, since Nine Infant is his little brother, he will protect him no matter what happens in the future.
The person who wants to bully him?
First, pass this test of Ye Qingxuan!
"This is Mount Buzhou. You have to enter the demon realm from here. Are you ready?" Jade Rabbit said, looking at Ye Qingxuan and frowning as he pulled them both over.
"Preparing what..."
Before Zhang Huan could finish his sentence, Ye Qingxuan was also pondering the question when they were pulled over by Jade Rabbit and directly jumped off the cliff on Mount Buzhou.
Now, there was no need for Jade Rabbit to explain, and they also knew what he had just said.
Chapter 15 Like a Wolf and Tiger
"Damn, before the big sister jumps off the cliff, please remind me! I think I'm starting to feel a little scared of heights!" Looking down from the top of the cliff, you can hear Zhang Huan's screams echoing throughout the entire bottom of the cliff.
I don't know if I've become close to Ye Qingxuan or not, but now he's also starting to say some unconventional words. Sometimes these words inexplicably fit the mood.
A master is a master. Zhang Huan regards all this irrationality as part of his practice that hasn't reached its peak, so he can't see through it.
Look at Ye Qingxuan's profound cultivation, that's why his speech and demeanor are so elegant, calm, and yet humorous. I really hit the jackpot by choosing to follow such a great leader!
His thoughts, of course, Ye Qingxuan would not know, because at this time Ye Qingxuan had just adjusted from weightlessness.
"I'm not asking if you're ready, who knows that you, a Hermit-Immortal, have never even been to the demon realm."
God knows that Jade Rabbit initially thought Zhang Huan had been to the demon realm, although the three realms are not in harmony, they are still temporarily in a state of truce on the surface.
So if an immortal enters the demon realm and is not a powerful being, the guardians of the realm will turn a blind eye as long as they don't cause too much trouble. "Then you..." Forget it, let's just consider it a good deed for the day and not argue with a little demon.
Speaking of Jade Rabbit, this little demon is quite talented in cultivation. After all, it only took 300 years for it to become an immortal. Zhang Huan then recalled his own miserable journey of cultivation...
Well, forget it!
Bringing it up will only cause sadness and tears for those who hear it!
Fortunately, the weightlessness didn't last long. In less than fifteen minutes, they arrived in the territory of the demon realm. Unlike the ethereal mist of the immortal realm or the bustling atmosphere of the mortal realm, the demon realm seemed to be situated between the two. Its atmosphere lacked the tranquility of the mortal realm and was filled with a sense of lurking danger everywhere.
"Hey, the demon realm is quite scary!" Following behind Ye Qingxuan, Zhang Huan tried hard to ignore the gaze fixed on him, swallowing hard. Those eyes made him feel like he was being dissected alive. Ye Qingxuan didn't feel any better, but because he had no spiritual power, the gaze fixed on him wasn't as intense.
An ordinary person who tastes bland has no flesh fragrance filled with spiritual power like an immortal. Even foolish monsters know to hunt and catch the best prey first.
"Don't say anything, just follow me!"
Although she has cultivated into an immortal as a monster, she is still an immortal now, and this is the border area belonging to the three unmanaged zones.
The monsters here are very ferocious. Once they sense your fear, their gaze becomes even more intense. Those with lower cultivation levels would probably be eaten as soon as they arrive here. I secretly congratulate myself for not slacking off in my cultivation. I am now in the later stage of the Earthly Immortal realm, and I can vaguely sense the threshold of the Heavenly Immortal realm. These monsters are wary of me because I deliberately released the aura of the early stage of the Heavenly Being. That's why they dare not act recklessly for the time being. If I weren't here, Zhang Huan, the Hermit-Immortal, would probably have been captured as soon as he entered the monster realm, and the result would undoubtedly be death.
"Immortal realm is still better..."
Muttering complaints, but not daring to speak loudly, the body moved closer to Ye Qingxuan, almost squeezing the person out of the narrow path.
"I didn't think you were so scared?"
He's still just a mortal, why is he so timid in the demon realm? Even if Zhang Huan is a coward, he can accept it, but there's really no need to be so afraid.
Does he really think he can't handle a few small animals?
No, he probably means he doesn't need to do it himself, he can just release Nine Infant to instantly kill a large number of demons here.
So... what is he really afraid of? Rolling her eyes, Ye Qingxuan seriously doubted how she had ever taken Zhang Huan as her little brother. How could she have assumed that? At the very least, he should be as mighty and domineering as the Nine Infant Great Demon Beast. Just the prototype alone could crush these little animals. What's there to be afraid of?
"I... I don't know, I'm just scared!"
So many monsters staring at me like wolves and tigers, anyone would be scared!
He himself had practiced for hundreds of years to barely become an immortal, and he was the lowest level at that. It's just so sad!
"I'm so hungry. It's been a long time since I've eaten human flesh!" Just as Ye Qingxuan and the others walked to a large tree, the Wolf demon lying next to it couldn't help but drool.
Drip, drip, the ground was covered in saliva. It seems like they have been craving the three of them for a long time, and now smelling the spiritual aura on Zhang Huan has made their mouths water even more.
The three people in front of them, except for the Rabbit spirit who is not easy to deal with, the other two can be said to be caught without any effort.
The flesh of mortals is generally edible, and can be easily criticized in front of Ye Qingxuan by Wolf demon, who occasionally reveals a covetous gaze, which can be described as extremely obscene. Damn, drooling in front of me, I would think you have a crush on me!
This idea gave Ye Qingxuan himself the chills, and he clearly also saw this Wolf demon.
No way, hey, the Wolf demon is standing in the middle of the path, pretending not to see it is not an option!
They are not blind...
Chapter 16: Extremely Arrogant
"Hey, you two, stay behind!"
Wolf demon said unapologetically, with an air of arrogance. If it weren't for the fact that he had two ears on his head, he would be no different from those landlord tycoons. They were all bullies who abused their power. Looking behind him, it's no wonder Wolf demon had such confidence. He was backed by a group of monsters, all with two ears on their heads.
Originally, they have a team, no wonder they are so arrogant.
"Outrageous, they are the people I brought. If you want to make a move, you have to ask me first!"
I didn't expect the Wolf demon to be so openly snatching people, this is something Jade Rabbit did not anticipate.
"Bold, how dare you speak to our Great King like that? Behave and hand over those two, and maybe our Great King will forgive you!"
The henchman of Wolf demon smirked at his boss and then turned to Ye Qingxuan and his group with a fierce and menacing look, instantly transforming from a smiling lackey to a fierce thug.
"No, I can't leave anyone behind from the people I brought."
Looking at the situation, it's clear that the problem won't be solved without a fight. Saying this, Jade Rabbit brandishes its magic weapon and assumes a fighting stance.
"You don't know your place!"
A late-stage Earth Immortal thinks they can deceive Wolf demon with a little mist, but Wolf demon quickly sees through Jade Rabbit's disguise.
Dealing with a Heavenly Being level Wolf demon doesn't have much certainty, but dealing with an Earth Immortal is still possible, especially since he brought so many lackeys with him. Taking down these three people is only a matter of time.
Thinking that the Wolf demon is still complacent, it's fortunate that I resisted bringing the lackeys over earlier. Otherwise, it would have been quite a challenge to face two immortals alone, even if I could manage to beat them.
As for Ye Qingxuan, he seems to be a mere mortal with no spiritual power, not worthy of being included in my scope of battle.
In the eyes of the Wolf demon, Ye Qingxuan is already a dead man, a lowly mortal who can only be divided and eaten by a group of lackeys after death.
Despite being looked down upon, Ye Qingxuan remains calm, completely unaware that he is already considered dead in the eyes of the Wolf demon.
As the battle is about to begin, Ye Qingxuan also does not want to waste time here.
"I said, can I say a few words..."
Before the words were finished, Jade Rabbit with her impulsive nature rushed up and hammered Wolf demon fiercely. The monster was not easy to deal with, and soon had her retreating in defeat, with hundreds of moves bringing her down.
"Uh..."
The battle ended so quickly, I didn't have any time to prepare at all!
You said you're a noob in battles, so if you can't beat the Wolf demon, don't be so impulsive. Can you let me finish my sentence?
Ah, Ye Qingxuan thinks the teammates this time are really bad, they are so hard to lead!
"I see that you have good looks. If you are willing to stay with me, I will reluctantly spare your life."
I thought it would take some time to deal with this earth immortal, but I didn't expect it to be so easy. Hundreds of them couldn't hold up. It seems that these immortals are all very weak.
But Wolf demon doesn't know that, in fact, Jade Rabbit does have good talent for cultivation, and her cultivation level has been increasing rapidly, but she rarely has the opportunity to practice.
This is different from the Wolf demon who has been through countless battles in the demon realm before rising to power. Strictly speaking, Jade Rabbit's cultivation and combat power are not directly proportional, so it is expected that he was defeated so quickly.
"Ha, do whatever you want to kill or torture me!" Jade Rabbit refused to yield.
"Boss, what should we do? If Jade Rabbit can't win, I definitely can't beat that monster either."
The demon realm is different from the other two realms in that, besides having a different origin, demons can also take on human form. However, when on their own turf, they have a habit of more or less revealing a distinctive feature of their true form. For example, Wolf-sheep has two ears visible on his head, but this doesn't prevent him from taking on human form and being a demon hunter. However, there are exceptions, such as nine infant, who, even in human form, doesn't have any additional features, strictly speaking, still belonging to the category of demons.
"Wolf demon It's outrageous, actually wanting to eat swan meat without reflecting on one's own behavior!" Zhang Huan feels like his mouth is getting more and more venomous. The old him would never have uttered such ferocious words!
It must be the influence of the boss, yes!
"...Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Cursing me will bring down lightning on you."
The misty sky suddenly rumbled with thunder, startling Zhang Huan. "Haha, boss, I wouldn't dare speak ill of you. I haven't even finished praising you yet!" Almost forgot, Ye Qingxuan not only has profound cultivation, but he's also like the son of the heavens, able to receive a response from the heavens no matter what he says.
"Ah, this is the difference between me and the boss!"
"Alright, alright, don't cling to me!"
Tearing the person off himself, a big man always hugs and embraces himself. I guess he has never been to a place called Jinjiang in his life. If he had, he would know to avoid suspicion!
"It's your turn to perform."
I don't know if Ye Qingxuan was talking to the air or to someone, but just as the Wolf demon came over to make a fuss, he happened to see this useless mortal muttering to himself.
"Hey, who are you chanting to?" The extremely arrogant Wolf demon still didn't realize that he was about to meet his end.
"To be honest, on my turf, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save... save... save me!" Chapter 17 Death Approaches. Before he could finish his sentence, Wolf demon saw something spring out from Ye Qingxuan's wrist, moving so fast that it left an afterimage.
Before Ye Qingxuan summoned him, nine infant wanted to come out and teach this uncultured Wolf demon a lesson, which is really embarrassing for their monster race.
It seems that the demon world is no longer the same as it used to be after tens of thousands of years. Talent is withering, and shameless people are rampant. No wonder the demon world suffered the most in The Three Realms War.
Even the weakest human race, relying on the wisdom inside their brains, quickly withdrew from the Battle of the Three Kingdoms, although there were losses, they were not fundamental and were quickly recovered in the subsequent recuperation.
The demon realm has been recuperating for so many years, and it hasn't even recovered to its former peak. If it could, nine infant wouldn't even want to acknowledge this family anymore!
Now that he recognizes Ye Qingxuan as his master, isn't the demon realm his family?
With his family being so arrogant towards his master, Ancient monster nine infant's anger is not easily appeased!
"Is that so."
After landing, the nine infant reverted to its original form. The small creature gradually grew larger, expanding until its body crushed the nearby trees, only to be stopped by Ye Qingxuan. Otherwise, it could have grown even larger.
"Alright, alright, let's clean up and hit the road."
Glancing at the already lying dead Jade Rabbit, her spiritual power was almost completely depleted, and her body's functions were gradually weakening due to excessive blood loss. It was clear that when she had just fought with the Wolf demon, the latter had shown no mercy at all. In Ye Qingxuan's view, no matter how much Jade Rabbit showed weakness, the Wolf demon would not spare her due to her insatiable greed. Seeing Jade Rabbit's miserable state, Ye Qingxuan frowned and casually instructed nine infant, "No need to hold back, show no mercy!"
When nine infant came out, Jade Rabbit fainted, a bit of a pity that he couldn't see Wolf demon being beaten up unilaterally by nine infant, until in the end not even a trace of soul was left, the whole demon was directly swallowed by nine infant!
After burping, nine infant returned to Ye Qingxuan's wrist, as an inconspicuous decoration, to the amazed eyes of Zhang Huan.
"He he he he he he... nine infant he... he... he ate, he ate Wolf demon!!!"
I'm about to die, I'm about to die. Not long ago, I had a direct argument with him and even quarreled. If nine infant is not happy, will he swallow himself as well?!
He's much weaker than Wolf demon, so it's no pressure for him to eat!
Zhang Huan is so scared right now. Is it still possible to go and make amends with nine infant?
He promised not to joke about the embarrassing deeds of nine infant at the Peach Banquet in the future. In case he went too far, with nine heads and a frail body, he would be done for! "…Zhang Huan, excessive imagination is a disease, it's better to treat it early," Ye Qingxuan didn't know what to say. Isn't nine infant just a bad monster who bullies them? How could Zhang Huan associate it with himself? I'm afraid his imagination is too rich.
While Zhang Huan was thinking about how to regain some favor in nine infant's heart, the timid monsters who had just gathered in small groups were already scared to death by Ye Qingxuan's appearance. They scattered in all directions, fearing that they would suffer the same fate as the Wolf demon if they were late.
These monsters were at most a little over a thousand years old, and they couldn't even recognize what kind of monster nine infant was. In any case, it seemed like a kingly pressure was pressing down on them, making them feel submissive. If they didn't leave soon, they probably wouldn't even be able to leave their corpses behind!
"Watching Jade Rabbit here, I'll go find some herbs."
There's only so much blood in the body, and even if it runs dry, no one can just let this Rabbit spirit go.
After all, they came here together. Ye Qingxuan is not the kind of person who would stand by and watch someone die. After confirming that there were no threats around, he walked alone into the depths of the forest.
Sorry, just now he scanned the surroundings and didn't find the kind of herb that was used to save nine infant, so he had to go deeper into the woods to look for it.
What? Why not look for a substitute?
Sorry, because Ye Qingxuan himself knows of a kind of herb that can stop bleeding, and who knows if the others picked are poisonous or not.
Moreover, the Hemostatic herb is quite effective. It had an immediate effect when used on nine infant, so it should be even simpler to use on a mere little rabbit. Watching Ye Qingxuan's figure gradually disappear into the woods, knowing that he vanished into the forest inside, Zhang Huan nervously looked around, afraid that a monster would jump out the next second. "Oh Jade Rabbit, Jade Rabbit, you better pray that boss Ye comes back soon. Otherwise, if those monsters return, I won't be able to handle it!"
At this moment, Zhang Huan suddenly felt very powerless. His cultivation as a Hermit-Immortal was mediocre in the Three Realms, and as a member of no sect or school, he had nowhere to complain when bullied.
After waiting for half an hour, Zhang Huan still hadn't seen Ye Qingxuan return. The surroundings were quiet, and no one dared to come and seek death recklessly.
"Oh no, could the boss have gotten lost?!" If that were true, it would be a disaster, Zhang Huan thought to himself.
In the depths of the forest, Ye Qingxuan didn't actually get lost. He was just hungry, so he solved the problem of food while gathering herbs. Chapter 18: The Recluse. He walked and ate a few spiritual fruits, and also held a wild chicken. After filling his stomach a bit, Ye Qingxuan casually hummed a tune as he walked out.
In my pocket, I still have a few left. I plan to save them for Zhang Huan and the Rabbit spirit later.
"Boss, you're finally back! I thought you got lost because you were gone for so long."
Seeing Ye Qingxuan made me as happy as seeing my parents. I hurried over to him as if taking two steps in one, "Jade Rabbit just woke up a moment ago, but now it's passed out again."
After losing so much blood, being able to wake up again shows that the Rabbit spirit's physical condition is quite good. It's probably because she eats well at the Guanghan Palace, after all, it's the heavenly realm, where things are not ordinary.
"It's okay, help her up," Ye Qingxuan crushed the herbs and chewed them, then carefully applied the juice to Jade Rabbit's wound.
Even though he had experienced it before, Zhang Huan was still stunned to see the medicine's effect evaporate so well.
Soon, under the effect of the herbs, Jade Rabbit quickly woke up, and her wounds disappeared. "Did you save me?" She looked at her body and found it strange, "I remember being scratched by a Wolf demon here, but now..."
The wound is actually gone now, which is hard to believe for Jade Rabbit!
"Your injury is..."
"It wasn't us who saved you, unfortunately the powerful one who saw you were fine has already left," Zhang Huan said, slapping his forehead with a look of distress.
"I forgot to ask the name of that expert, what a mistake!" He kicked the nearby tree trunk. "Jade Rabbit girl, I'm sorry I didn't keep your lifesaver." The reason why he didn't let the boss tell Jade Rabbit the truth was to protect Ye Qingxuan. Zhang Huan also knew that his boss was very strong, but even if he was strong, he couldn't compete with the immortals of the three realms. Not to mention the abundance of talents in the immortal realm, there were also many great abilities in the Western Buddhist realm.
If the boss's secret is exposed and spread by someone with ill intentions, it may not be good news for them.
"Well, makes sense," Ye Qingxuan nodded rarely after listening quietly to Zhang Huan's analysis.
He really doesn't care if the people here know his secrets, but that way he can't walk freely in this world. He'd rather not be bothered by the possibility of being hunted down by people from the three realms. He's not a person of this world, so the rules and such don't affect him, unless Ye Qingxuan himself is willing. Otherwise, no one can do anything to him. If someone is blind enough to provoke him, he gets very angry, explosively angry.
At that time, Ye Qingxuan wouldn't mind bringing their Tian Dao here to vent their anger!
"Yeah, so in the future, boss, don't casually show off like that again. If the effect is too good, it will arouse suspicion."
Not everyone is as pure as he is, knowing such a shocking secret and still being able to keep it a secret for Ye Qingxuan.
The nine infant who saw all of this has completely changed his view of Zhang Huan at this moment, and no longer remembers the things he used to mock himself for. This page can be considered turned over now.
Zhang Huan doesn't know any of this. He has already received a "good person card" from nine infant, so he doesn't have to worry all the time that nine infant will perform a big-mouthed monster show for him if he's not happy!
Big brother nine infant, scaring him is really not fun at all!
"Hey, what are you two whispering about behind my back? Is there something you don't want me to know?"
As soon as she arrived, she asked the soul-piercing question. Zhang Huan didn't even know when Jade Rabbit came over. Wasn't she supposed to be resting on the side?
When did she run over?
Is there no sound when you walk?
"Well... it's nothing. We're discussing some things that only men understand. Are you sure you really want to know?"
Looking at Jade Rabbit with a mischievous smile, Ye Qingxuan suddenly really wanted this rabbit to say she really wanted to know, that would be fun.
"What... what a mess. I'm not interested in what I just said to you."
Both of them had a bad expression, and Jade Rabbit indicated that she should not speak too much.
But in the immortal world, who has the ability to save her from the hands of Yama King when she was almost dead? Such deep wounds cannot be healed instantly even with the spells of a great immortal.
Is Ye Qingxuan really lying, or is there really such a person?
"Oh, I remember now. I heard that he can instantly repair wounds and restore the spiritual power of severely injured immortals. If sage can do it, then the person you met must be a saintly immortal who has reached a certain level of cultivation and doesn't care about worldly affairs!"
The more Jade Rabbit thought about it, the more certain he became of his idea, but all of this is just a legend.
For tens of thousands of years, people have been passing it down, but no one has ever seen anyone able to cultivate to the level of a holy immortal or deity. Could it be that I've encountered one myself?
This luck is just too good!
"Hehe, as long as you're happy."
"It must be, oh, it's really impolite not to have been able to properly thank them in person." Jade Rabbit stomped its foot, looking reluctant and unwilling, completely different from its half-dead appearance just now.
"......"
"Um, can we continue walking now?"
After finishing speaking, Ye Qingxuan went to tidy up the nearby bonfire and put out all the firewood.
Chapter 19: Rainbow Turkey
Just now, a wild turkey was shot, with tender and delicious meat, a rare delicacy. Ye Qingxuan plans to improve the food during this time in the demon realm.
The unknown wild chicken is now clearly on Ye Qingxuan's menu inside.
"You guys... wait, what did you just roast?!"
Jade Rabbit saw the miscellaneous hair on the ground, the more he looked, the more familiar it became. He picked up a few particularly bright ones to inspect, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.
"Wild chicken, didn't you just eat it too?" Not only did you eat it, but you also kept praising it non-stop, with no trace of being messy while eating, and you didn't even look up.
It's over, it's over, it's over!
"You roasted the Rainbow turkey, if the one from Ten Thousand Demons Hall comes looking for you, it's not my problem!"
Ten Thousand Demons Hall That is his pet, the Rainbow turkey, which is said to have been raised for two thousand years, but has never grown intelligent, just a little prettier than the usual wild turkey.
Being more than just a little prettier with its seven colors, it lowers the status of Rainbow turkey by ten times compared to the unknown wild turkey.
In the end, no matter how good-looking it is, it cannot change the fact that it is a breed of chicken. Even after being raised for two thousand years and nourished by numerous precious spiritual fruit, it has not been able to develop intelligence, showing that it is a stupid turkey.
I can't resist the charm of the demon king in the Ten Thousand Demons Hall. Rainbow turkey has been wreaking havoc in the demon realm for over two thousand years. I don't know if it's just retribution, but in the end, it couldn't escape death.
I even had a chicken leg myself. Jade Rabbit, who had just narrowly escaped death, couldn't help but feel sorrowful, "I'll have to think about how to die later..."
"It's just a chicken, isn't it? Its name, Rainbow turkey, sounds terrible. Apart from its meat being decent, it has no other merits."
The demon king of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall probably has terrible taste, being infatuated with a turkey for two thousand years. It's probably just idle. "But to live for two thousand years and not die of old age, it seems to be a long-lived turkey. Case closed." The Jade Rabbit, who has already lost the will to live, still has to endure occasional comments from Ye Qingxuan about the Rainbow Turkey, which is undoubtedly pitiful, like being dragged out for a beating after death.
"Don't say anymore. Let's hurry and leave before the demon king finds us." At least there's still a chance to struggle at the end, but Jade Rabbit didn't hold much hope. It's only a matter of time before they are discovered for causing trouble in someone else's territory.
Unfortunately, they roasted and ate the Demon King's beloved heart, so once the Demon King finds out, they won't be able to escape! Ah, if only I had known that these two would cause so much trouble, I wouldn't have brought them to the Demon Realm in the first place. Right now, Jade Rabbit is filled with regret!
But regret is useless, we can only hurry to leave this place of trouble while dragging the two who are almost dying. There's no need to be afraid. I estimate the emotions of Ye Qingxuan and also act with her. I was pulled by her to the other side of the forest in one breath.
"Here... here should be temporarily safe," gasped Jade Rabbit as she did not give up on Ye Qingxuan at a critical moment.
In fact, she could have left them behind and fled on her own after knowing that Ye Qingxuan had angered the Demon King by roasting his beloved pet. This way, she might have bought some time to return to Moon Palace before the Demon King found her.
Under the protection of Chang'e, she could stay safe in the Demon Realm for a while even if she didn't come out, as in the heavens, one day is equivalent to a year on earth. A period of time could be a very long time in the Demon Realm's time, perhaps long enough for the Demon King to forget this unpleasant past.
Jade Rabbit chose to escape with Ye Qingxuan and the others, showing rare courage. Since Jade Rabbit has a good nature, Ye Qingxuan also wants to do something for her. "What did you come to the demon realm for? You can tell me now, right?"
We are all grasshoppers on the same rope, there's no need to hide it. The more people, the more strength!
"Um, this... "
It's not that Jade Rabbit doesn't want to speak, she just doesn't know how to start.
"It's okay, take your time to think about it." Ye Qingxuan didn't urge her either, quietly waiting for Jade Rabbit to tell the story.
In fact, they knew from Jade Rabbit's words and actions that this trip to the demon realm was to save someone. As for who they were saving, Ye Qingxuan had no idea.
It turned out that Jade Rabbit's parents had been captured by a demon king in the demon realm, who wanted to kill her parents to vent his anger.
In general, in this kind of situation, people wouldn't just arbitrarily arrest someone and publicly execute them.
"Did your parents offend that demon king?"
"No, my parents are law-abiding good citizens of the demon world. Since I willingly chose to become an immortal, my family has been enduring unfair treatment from the surroundings."
Originally, Jade Rabbit wanted to wait until after the Peach Banquet to ask Guanghan Fairy to borrow his parents. Immortals don't have as much prejudice against fairies, as long as Jade Rabbit and Guanghan Fairy agree, it's just a matter of minutes. However, because of the Peach Banquet, a day in the sky is a year on earth. Jade Rabbit is anxious to have his parents in the demon world, but he has no choice. He needs to ask for his master's permission to come and live here.
She had always been in contact with her parents, but suddenly it was cut off, with no news at all. After inquiring multiple times, it was discovered that she had been captured by the demon king.
