Human Realm

Today is the third day that Qingcheng has been trapped. After being bitten by the venomous snake for the second time, he has not been able to get even half a step closer to the cave entrance.

After the two-headed water dragon detoxified him, it also sealed the cave entrance with a barrier, claiming it was to prevent the snakes from getting close to Qingcheng. In reality, it was to trap Qingcheng inside the cave and kill her. Now that Qingcheng had lost her spiritual power, she really couldn't escape.

"Oh dear, Qiyou, it's been three days already! You should have realized I'm missing by now. Please come find me quickly, I don't want to get married!"

Feeling utterly hopeless, Qingcheng lay on the bed eating fruit. He was already somewhat desperate. Although he had no spiritual power before, the two-headed water dragon at the cave entrance hadn't sealed it off. If he could deal with the group of snakes, he still had a chance to escape.

But now things are really bad. The entrance to the cave is completely sealed off, and his hopes have been dashed. Unless Qi You can find his way out, he has no chance of getting out.

"Qiyou~ Please come quickly! If you come and rescue me, I will definitely repay you properly~ Waaah~ Why am I so unlucky?"

Qingcheng, who was muttering to himself in bed, was on the verge of tears. He desperately hoped that Qiyou would come to save him, otherwise he would really be doomed!

Near the cave where Qingcheng was imprisoned, Yue Jiunian was picking fruit. They had been searching this mountain for two days, and today was the third day, but they still couldn't find Qingcheng. So everyone was worried that Qingcheng might have really encountered some danger.

Yue Jiuling and Qi You stood atop the tree, looking down. Seeing that many demon subordinates had come to help search, but still hadn't found the person, Yue Jiuling said, "Tsk~ How can this be? It was one thing for us to not find the person, but how come so many people searching together still haven't found a single clue?"

The people who helped find the Demon King were all found by Qi You in the Demon Realm. Qi You wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "There's nothing else we can do. I can only hope that Qingcheng can pull herself out of this situation, otherwise it's really over."

Yue Jiuling said, "Although the tail feather in your hand indicates that Qingcheng is not in mortal danger, what if he is trapped and unable to get out, and can only wait for us to rescue him?"

"That's what I'm worried about right now," Qi You said angrily. "Tsk! That damned Greedy Wolf, if anything really happens to Qingcheng, I will never let him get away with it!"

Just as they were talking, Yue Jiu Nian called to them from a wild fruit tree: "Jiu Ling, Qi You, come quick! There's been a discovery here!"

When Yue Jiu Nian shouted, everyone heard it and gathered around. Yue Jiu Xing and Yue Jiu Yue also rushed over and asked, "What's wrong, Jiu Nian? Did you find something?"

In this place, no one needs to hide their strength, so Yue Jiuling flew directly over and asked, "Jiunian, what did you find?"

When Yue Jiu Nian saw that Qi You and Yue Jiu Ling had arrived, she pointed to a wild fruit tree and said, "Look at this tree, it's so strange. I just saw some black snakes picking fruit. Snakes don't eat fruit, so I think something's not right."

Upon hearing this, Yue Jiuxing immediately ran to the tree, picked a small fruit, and put it in her mouth. She said, "Oh, this fruit is not bad, it's sweet and sour. But snakes eat meat, so why would they eat fruit?"

When Yue Jiuyue saw Yue Jiuxing eating fruit, she wanted to eat some too. However, she happened to be coming from the other direction and wasn't looking where she was going. So, halfway to the wild fruit tree, her foot suddenly slipped and she fell into a big pit with a 'plop'!

"Oh my god! Who was so heartless as to dig such a big hole here? I could have fallen in and died!"

Yue Jiuyue, clutching her backside, crawled out of the huge pit, cursing as she went: "Damn it, the person who dug that pit is so annoying! I curse him to fall to his death someday!"

After seeing Yue Jiuyue fall into the pit, Yue Jiuxing kept laughing. She covered her mouth and laughed, "Hahaha~ You deserved it! Who told you to run so fast and not watch where you were going? You deserved to fall and die~"

Yue Jiu Nian laughed as well. She helplessly reached out to help Yue Jiu Yue and said, "Didn't I tell you to be more serious? You're always so reckless. You'll fall and kill yourself sooner or later."

Yue Jiuling also said, "Exactly, you guys are always acting like you're never going to grow up, I'm so annoyed with you."

Just as Yue Jiuling was about to pull Yue Jiuyue away, Qi You suddenly jumped into the large pit and said with a serious expression, "Wait, there seems to be Qingcheng's aura in this pit."

After Qi You finished speaking, he reached down, grabbed a handful of soil, smelled it, and said, "That's right, there is indeed the scent of Qingcheng here, and there's also a fishy smell mixed in. This smell, tsk, why do I think it smells a bit like snake?"

Upon hearing the mention of snakes, Yue Jiu Nian immediately realized what they meant. She said, "Snakes? Could it be those snakes I just saw? Qi You, come and look at this tree. You should still smell their scent on it."

Upon hearing this, Qi You jumped out of the pit and walked towards the wild fruit tree. He sniffed it and said with a look of surprise, "That's right, that's the smell! It seems that Qingcheng must have had contact with those snakes before she disappeared. Maybe her disappearance is related to those snakes!"

Hearing this, Yue Jiuling looked at Yue Jiunian happily and said, "Jiunian, what about those snakes? Do you remember where they went?"

Yue Jiu Nian looked around and said with some difficulty, "Oh no, I was so busy calling you that I forgot to pay attention to their movements. Qi You, can you use the scent on these trees to find the snakes?"
