The cat demon suppressed his smile, stood up, leaned close to her ear, and whispered softly, "The key to unlocking the Ji Ming magic circle is hidden in Jiufang Mingyuan's study. The magic circle is hidden in the one next to Ji Ming..."
After informing him of the method for unlocking the sealing formation, the cat demon offered a thoughtful plan: "Demon Lord Jiufang Jie is in seclusion at the highest point of Cloud Peak. If something happens there, the demons will surely flock there, and stealing the key will be a piece of cake."
After taking careful note of the words, Feiqin waved away the cat demon and immediately went to the Snake Queen's cave to claim credit.
She reported everything the cat demon said to the Snake Queen. Sure enough, the Snake Queen was ecstatic. She granted Feiqin one of her wishes on the spot and asked her to summon the cat demon to go to the top of the cloud together.
The Snake Queen couldn't wait even a moment longer, and immediately summoned her demon tribe and sneaked into the top of the cloud under the cover of night.
She was so eager for revenge that she didn't even have time to think about how such an important secret could be known by a little cat demon.
At the summit of the cloud, after Qingpu had bought the wine, Yiwu lay down on the tallest branch of the locust tree in her courtyard, sipping it slowly before finally falling asleep with her eyes closed. Some curious person saw her and reported her to Jiufang Mingyuan.
"I am truly worried. The Saint Lady has not recovered from her serious injuries yet, and now if she drinks and catches a cold, I'm afraid her health will be even worse..."
Seeing Jiufang Mingyuan leave with a gloomy face, the worry in the maid's eyes completely disappeared, and she smiled maliciously, "I don't know where this wild thing came from, and you also want to be the young master's wife, you're dreaming."
Before long, Jiufang Mingyuan had arrived outside Jiyu Palace. Looking up, he spotted a figure sprawled on the highest branch. The faint aroma of wine wafted over him, suggesting he'd drunk quite a bit.
After watching for a long time, he just stepped into the Jiyu Palace when a guard hurriedly ran over, shouting: "Oh no, Young Master, the forbidden area is on fire, Young Master, the forbidden area is on fire, go put out the fire quickly..."
The entire demon clan at the top of the Clouds was suddenly in an uproar because of the fire in the forbidden area. Perhaps there were other things as well. In short, there was commotion everywhere.
Yi Wu seemed to be awakened by the guard's voice, frowned and opened her eyes.
Sensing something approaching quickly, she rolled over and stood three feet behind Jiufang Mingyuan, immediately raising her arms to block it.
The next moment, her skin was pierced by a sharp object, and two bloody holes suddenly appeared. Then, a pair of venomous fangs emerged from the blood holes, and the Snake Queen slowly emerged.
Seeing that she had bitten the wrong person, she swung her tail hard, hitting Yi Wu so hard that she vomited blood and flew backwards.
Hearing the noise, Jiufang Mingyuan quickly turned around and caught Yi Wu who was being blown away.
The last injury had not yet healed fully, and he suffered this heavy blow again. In addition, he had just drunk a lot of alcohol, so the snake venom took effect quickly. Yi Wu fainted directly, sliding to the ground with blood in her mouth.
Jiufang Mingyuan raised his hands to embrace her, quickly sealing her heart meridians and glaring fiercely at Sheji. "Someone, call the magic doctor!"
Qing Pu immediately ran out to call the magic doctor. The guard who reported the fire finally ran to the door, gasping for breath, "Young Master, the forbidden area... is on fire!"
Then, another guard came running over to report, "Young Master, something bad has happened! The demon tribe is attacking!"
There was a fire in the forbidden area and a surprise attack on the top of the cloud. It was obvious that the demon clan came prepared this time.
Hearing the news, and seeing the person in his arms on the verge of death from the snake venom, Jiufang Mingyuan's eyes erupted with rage, shooting straight at Snake Princess, "I think you are tired of living."
"It doesn't matter whether I'm tired of living or not. What's important is..." Snake Queen smiled evilly and attacked again, "If you kill my son, you demons won't be able to survive either."
Yi Wu was completely unconscious. Jiufang Mingyuan held her in his arms, making it inconvenient for him to fight. After finding an opportunity, he slapped Snake Queen away with a palm, then slipped into the house and gently placed her on the couch.
Snake Princess came back soon and the two fought again.
Jiufang Mingyuan is young but extremely powerful. Even though Snake Queen has practiced for ten thousand years, she still needs to use all her strength to barely fight him.
It was inevitable that surrounding objects would be destroyed during the fight. Considering the injured people in the house, Jiufang Mingyuan led the Snake Queen away.
Soon, he discovered that Snake Queen rarely took the attack head-on, but always dodged left and right, pestering him and trying to get away.
Thinking of the fire in the forbidden area, Jiufang Mingyuan immediately reacted and said in a cold voice, "If my uncle makes even the slightest mistake today, I will tear you all into pieces."
As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped out with all his strength, knocking the Snake Queen back several meters.
The guards quickly surrounded the Snake Queen. Taking this opportunity, Jiufang Mingyuan flew away and headed for the forbidden area.
Snake Queen managed to steady herself with great difficulty. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, her eyes, filled with hatred, were fixed on Jiufang Mingyuan.
"Want to run? Impossible." She swung her thick snake tail vigorously, knocking the demon guards away and chasing after Jiufang Mingyuan.
Having lost her beloved son and with no way to seek revenge, Snake Princess has been blinded by hatred. No matter what, today, she will hold Jiufang Mingyuan back, leaving him no time to worry about anything else.
When the immortals regain their freedom, it will be the day when you, the demons, will suffer.
Seeing this, the guards in charge of guarding the Jiyu Palace chased after them and fought with the demon soldiers who had sneaked into the top of the cloud.
The noise faded away, Yiwu opened her eyes quietly, listening to the sounds of the cicadas beside her ears.
Qing Pu rushed all the way to find the magic doctor to save Yi Wu's life. But when he arrived, he found that the magic doctors had also been ambushed by the demons and were engaged in a fierce battle.
She resolutely joined in just to bring the magic doctor back to the Jiyu Palace.
"I'm sorry, Qingpu." Yiwu sat up, adjusted her breathing to suppress the poison, and calmed her mind.
The Snake Queen's mind was much more ruthless than she had imagined. In addition to setting fire to the forbidden area, she also ordered the demon clan to launch sneak attacks everywhere, and even personally restrained Jiufang Mingyuan. In this way, the demon clan had no way of guessing her true intentions.
After the last incident, a large number of demons were recalled to the top of the cloud, and the guards were strengthened a lot. I wonder if the people arranged by Snake Queen found the black wooden box.
Time is running out and Yiwu cannot afford to delay.
She waved her sleeves towards the couch, and an identical body appeared, taking Yiwu's place. She herself transformed into a black cat, leaping onto the rooftop while no one was paying attention and leaving.
Although she borrowed the help of the demons to steal the key, Yiwu had to open the seal herself.
To prevent accidents, she could not leave directly. She had to go to the Winged Demon Palace first and take away the fake black wooden box in Jiufang Mingyuan's study.
The sound of fighting continued all the way, black smoke rose from the highest point of the clouds, and raging fires could be vaguely seen.
The fire glowed green, not an ordinary flame, but a demonic fire. Adding to the demonic obstruction, it was even more difficult for the demons to extinguish it.
The black cat gently landed on the roof of the Winged Demon Hall and looked around. Outside the hall, demons were restraining the demon guards, while inside the study, seven or eight demons were rummaging through the cabinets.
"Hurry up and find it. If we can't find it, Lady Snake will definitely kill us."
"Feiqin didn't tell me where the key is hidden. This study is so big, and there are so many things..."
"Stop talking nonsense and find it for me! I'll dig three feet into the ground to find it!"
…
The black cat jumped down and rushed into the study. Its pupils narrowed as it scolded, "You are a bunch of useless people. You can't even find anything. What's the point of Lady Snake keeping you?"
These words instantly angered all the monsters in the study, and they all looked at her angrily.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you yell at me?" The poisonous scorpion's tail swayed left and right behind it, ready to sting the black cat at any time.
He was Snake Princess's most trusted confidant, and the one responsible for obtaining the key to unlock the seal today. Poison Scorpion was the first to object to Black Cat's scolding.
"It doesn't matter what I am, but if you can't find the key today and delay important matters, you will all die."
As it spoke, the black cat quickly sniffed around the room with its nose, raised its paw and patted a wall, "Here, take it out quickly."
The demons were originally angry at her outrageous words, but now that they saw that she had found the key, they were all overjoyed and rushed over.
The Black Bear Demon smashed the wall to pieces with one palm, and a delicate black wooden box four fingers wide fell into the cracks between the rocks. He quickly and carefully took it out and handed it to the Poison Scorpion, "Protector, I found it."
The scorpion took it, opened the lid and took a look, nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at the black cat, "Since you have done a good deed, I will forgive your disrespect for the time being."
"You all, quickly go help Lady Snake. Make sure you hold back the demons. This guardian will go and break the seal." Excitement spread across the Scorpion's face, and he ran out laughing wildly. "This world is about to get interesting..."
The remaining monsters rushed out of the study, spread out in all directions, and restrained the demons.
The sounds of weapons clashing, screams, and houses collapsing filled the entire top of the cloud. Fighting, destruction, bloodshed, and death occurred in every corner.
Yi Wu didn't dare to stop for a moment. She jumped out, ran and jumped between the roofs, chasing after the poisonous scorpion.
The sound of fighting from Little Golden Cicada's side gradually became smaller. She heard Qingpu swinging his sword and stabbing the demon clan. At the same time, he let out a muffled groan, obviously injured.
Fortunately, the demon guards arrived in time to help deal with the demons. Qing Pu finally found an opportunity and grabbed a nearby demon doctor, saying anxiously, "The Saint was bitten by the Snake Queen. Go and save her."
Unexpectedly, Demon Doctor Weng forcefully threw her away and angrily scolded, "Can't you see the forbidden area is on fire? Do you think the Demon Lord is more important, or that saint with unknown origins?"
Qing Pu staggered to his feet. Without time to argue, he chased after the other doctor and grabbed him, begging him urgently, "Please save the Saint. She's been poisoned by the Snake Queen. If..."
"Get lost." Doctor Wei kicked her away and rushed towards the forbidden area, cursing. "Yiwu is just a lowly thing that the Young Master brought back from somewhere. If she dies, then she dies. Don't delay us from saving the Demon Lord."
Qing Pu fell to the ground, feeling wronged and bewildered. She pounded the ground with both hands and yelled at their backs, "This is the Young Master's order. Are you going to disobey?"
No one paid any attention to her as everyone hurried to the forbidden area to help put out the fire.
The Demon Lord is the faith of their demon clan and must not be lost.
Qing Pu was so anxious that tears came to her eyes. She was unwilling to give up, so she got up from the ground and ran to the forbidden area. She wanted to tell Shao Zun that these evil doctors had disobeyed his orders and refused to treat the Saint Girl, and Shao Zun would punish them severely.
The fire in the forbidden area grew more and more intense, almost burning down most of the palace, but the demons were helpless against the evil fire.
Jiufang Mingyuan was temporarily entangled by the Snake Queen and had no time to split himself.
Time is running out. With the speed of the poisonous scorpion, it is likely that it will be discovered by the demons before it finds the cave.
