Chapter 344 - Little Black Missing
Alright, alright! Does your Demon King know that all of you concede defeat so easily? He expected a fight in any case, and didnt expect that once Shen Ying came out, they gave themselves up immediately. How big was the trauma from last time?
Release the disciples first!
Yes, yes! The Skyfiends nodded hard like chickens eating grains. They hurried to wave towards the demons behind them, Hurry up and send oh, invite, them down!
Only then did the demon army escort down that row of disciples who were originally meant as hostages.
Lonemoon counted and realized the disciples caught by them were only a few dozen. His heart sank, What about the others?
Elder, they are still at the Demon Palace. a disciple answered.
His face darkened, and turned to glance at the nine still kneeling, and saw that they shook even more severely.
That I We dont know about it too. They were all captured by the Demon King with arrays.
Lonemoon frowned, glanced at the disciples in front of him and gave Yi Qing a look. Chef, Ill bring them in first, you and Shen Ying trap those outside.
Hmm. Yi Qing nodded and went right up to set an array, trapping the whole demon army in their original position. The arrays he made were of the dragon clan, and naturally the demons could not break out of them. He turned around, took the nine Skyfiends and went back.
When they reached the back palace, those disciples were already tended to. Most of them were badly hurt, and some had even injured their immortal bones. Fortunately, there was no shortage of elixirs in the sect, and they only needed more time to rest. Lonemoon was more worried about those who had not returned.
Say it, what is that happened in the Demon World? Lonemoon, Shen Ying and Chef sat at the dining table and looked towards the nine Skyfiends, who knelt down obediently once more in front of them.
The nine looked at one another, and all of them shook their heads. We are also not sure. We havent seen Li Yin since several months ago.
Whos Li Yin? The three were stunned for a moment.
Demon King Little Black, it is, The nine hurried to explain.
Uh, they had been so used to calling Little Black that they forgot that he had a name. What happened to him?
The last time we saw former Demon King Li Yin was when he commanded the whole Demon Palace to get the dowry prepared within three months.
So Little Little Black was actually quite sincere towards Yu Hong.
Wait, dowry? Lonemoon was stunned. Isnt it supposed to be bride price?
Healing the disciples at one side, Lan Huas mouth twitched, and he suddenly said, Because Yu Hong told him, Kindness and both of you were not around, she would not marry over, so
So he planned to come here? Lonemoon was speechless. Little Black was quite serious about getting married indeed. It seemed that the previous Demon King also ran away with his wife? Are all Demon Kings so irresponsible? How could he have suddenly felt a little worried about the future of demons?
And after that?
When we finish preparing and went to notify him, we couldnt find him in the whole demon palace, as if he had suddenly vanished.
What about the new Demon King now, then?
The new Demon King also suddenly appeared in the Demon World. We have no idea of his past. His cultivation level is high, and the combined force of us ten Skyfiends was not enough to defeat him. The nine continued to explain. According to the rules of demons, he was indeed qualified to become the Demon King. At first we wanted to notify Invincible Sect regarding the disappearance of Demon King Li Little Black, but the new Demon King said there was no need for such troubles, and we could just go ahead with the marriage. He also said he was going to come personally to explain to lady Little Hong. We didnt expect that
That he directly kidnapped Yu Hong, and severely injured Lan Hua who went after them, drawing the whole sect to the Demon Palace.
The nine looked up at Shen Ying meekly and continued, We thought at first that this new Demon King only took a liking to lady Yu Hong, too. We didnt expect that he would actually directly attack Bo Sea Shen Ying.
Others also nodded, and they started complaining.
Actually, we didnt want to come But the Demon King said those severely injured disciples were to be killed. We had to persuade him to keep them for hostage, and then we brought the demon army here.
Yes, yes. We havent fought for many years. We dont want to fight since long ago!
Exactly. I only got the directory to Feng Cang Continent last month and was at first planning to go on a vacation during the Demon Kings wedding.
Hmm-hmm. Ive tried hard and relied on relations to get some immortal brews, I wont be able to taste them after the fight begins.
What is this? I am supposed to participate in the Immortal Peaches Festival of Ten Continents tomorrow.
As the nine demons talked, they grew even sadder, and their faces were full of grievances.
Lonemoon was completely speechless. Seeing these demons who had not a hint of fighting spirit, he silently pitied the Demon World ancestors. He suddenly felt that in the recent thousands of years, the integration of immortal and demon worlds seems a bit fast. But thinking of Little Black, it seemed less strange after all.
He could actually see that these few indeed didnt have the intention of forcefully attacking Invincible Sect. Otherwise, they wouldnt have brought a large group and stood outside shouting instead of starting to fight. While the Protective Mountain Array outside Invincible Heavenly Palace was strong, it wouldnt have been able to stand the combined attack of ten Skyfiends. Except a certain confused Skyfiend who got beaten up by his own kind, of course.
Besides, at that moment, they didnt know yet that Shen Ying had already returned. Yet they didnt enter, and a big possibility was that they didnt want to fight this battle after all. But for the face of the Demon King, they had to come and shout a bit.
Where are the rest of our disciples kept? asked Lonemoon.
In the Demon Palace dungeons! A Skyfiend raised his hand and answered immediately. Exalted Goddess, are you going to Demon World to save them? Now? I can lead the way!
Me too, me too! Others nodded immediately, and they started discussing, excitement all over their eyes. It was as if they werent going over to dismantle their base, but to help them. Im most familiar with the dungeons. I even know the hidden passages.
I know them too. They are kept on the third floor of the dungeons, furthest inside.
Yes, yes. The new Demon King must be in the Demon Palace right now. I can bring Exalted Goddess inside.
Or we can simply go back fighting. Ive disliked him since long ago.
Indeed. Although Exalted Immortal doesnt need our help, we can cheer for you!
And
Shen Ying,
Lonemoon,
Yi Qing:
Is it only okay that you are selling your Demon King so thoroughly? He suddenly pitied that new Demon King.
Chef, go with me to save them. Lonemoon randomly chose a Skyfiend to lead the way, then turned to Lan Hua beside him and said, Boss Lan, these disciples are in your charge.
Okay. Lan Hua nodded.
Eh? Is Exalted Goddess not going? The chosen Skyfiend looked at Shen Ying, who was already leaning on the table, and then looked at Lonemoon, his face full of concern.
Lonemoons mouth twitched. What the hell is this doubting look? Cant they do without Shen Ying? They had practice in the Divine World at any rate, okay? Its merely taking care of a small Demon King. Besides, the sect was full of injured disciples. It was more appropriate for Shen Ying to stay here.
Lonemoon told others about some precautions, and without further delay, called towards Yi Qing, Chef, lets go!
Chef turned, took out a storage bag full of food, handed over to Shen Ying, before he flew up on his sword. They went towards the Demon World together.
