As soon as she entered, the demon soldier guarding the gate sensed something, looked at the barrier outside, and exclaimed, "I feel like the barrier loosened just now, and it seems like something ran in?"
Demon Soldier B looked at the barrier outside. The barrier had been restored. He looked at the intact barrier and raised an eyebrow: "It's not loose. You must be mistaken."
Demon Soldier A curled his lip: "Maybe so."
Chu Yu entered the first floor of the tower. It was empty and there was nothing inside. A cold wind blew a few leaves through the air, making it feel rather desolate.
Chu Yu thought to herself, "No wonder the door was open; there was nothing there."
She carefully went upstairs, and as soon as she reached the second floor, a wave of heat suddenly hit her, making her feel as if she were in a temperature of over 40 degrees Celsius, and she broke out in a sweat.
She wiped the sweat from her brow, raising an eyebrow in puzzlement. "The first floor is so cold, how come the second floor is so hot?"
She looked ahead and saw a large furnace with a roaring fire burning inside. On a grill above the flames sat a black egg the size of a washbasin.
Chu Yu's eyes lit up. Was that the Demon Egg?
The two demon soldiers guarding the area watched the demon egg being roasted by the flames and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"This demon egg has been roasted by fire for a year. It's so blackened. I reckon the inside must have been charred black long ago."
"It's possible. This is the Demon Lord's offspring, which the Demon Lord has carefully nurtured for 300 years. If we crack open the shell and pour out the egg liquid to cook, it would definitely be delicious. It's just a pity that the Left Wise King doesn't allow anyone to eat it."
"Sigh, what a waste that they've been roasted to a crisp now!"
Hearing their conversation, Chu Yu looked at the dark egg and her heart skipped a beat. The demon egg had been roasted to a crisp.
Forget it, even if this magic egg is ruined by the heat, she's still taking it with her.
She made a hand seal and chanted a hypnotic spell. As the spell was chanted, the guarding demon soldier's vision went black and he fainted to the ground.
Chu Yu's eyes lit up; this spell was really useful.
She went to the stove, took out a large fork from her storage bag, and used it to pry the demon egg off the grill and place it on the ground.
The magic egg was extremely hot, and she dared not touch it at all.
She took out a specially made cardboard box from the underworld from her Qiankun bag, put the demon egg inside, closed the box, and put it back into her Qiankun bag.
Having done all this, Chu Yu quickly went downstairs and left the tower.
She hadn't taken more than a few steps when a loud bell suddenly rang out from inside the tower. The demon soldiers guarding outside changed their expressions drastically, and one of them exclaimed, "Oh no! Someone has broken into the tower and stolen the demon egg! Go and catch them!"
Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat. Holy crap! They found out so quickly?
She had to get away quickly.
She ran forward quickly, reaching for the teleportation token in her storage bag as she ran. Before she could even take the token out, a thunderous voice came from the main hall behind her: "Who dares to break into the pagoda and steal the demon egg?"
The sound wave, carrying extremely strong demonic energy, attacked. The invisibility talisman on Chu Yu's body instantly turned to ashes. She was blasted several meters away and fell to the ground with a thud.
She felt a sudden pain in her chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
She was startled; such powerful sonic energy had instantly neutralized her talisman and injured her.
Ignoring her pain, she looked up at the main hall behind her and saw a general, over two meters tall, wearing black armor, wielding a large sword, and with a fierce face, fly onto the roof.
He noticed Chu Yu's appearance, his face darkened, and he pointed in her direction, angrily shouting, "The little thief is right there, grab her now!"
The surrounding demon soldiers all turned to look at Chu Yu, and instantly, their killing intent surged as they charged menacingly toward her.
Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, with so many demonic soldiers attacking, we can't possibly win. I doubt even hypnotic spells will work.
The demon soldiers closest to her had already rushed up, and the demon soldier at the front raised his sword and slashed down.
The sword energy was sharp and its attack power was extremely strong.
Chu Yu's expression changed, and she quickly dodged the attack, but was still knocked back several steps by the powerful sword energy.
Her eyes widened in surprise. Such powerful swordsmanship! This was just an ordinary demonic soldier, yet it was already this strong. There were so many more demonic soldiers behind it. Wouldn't she be instantly reduced to dust?
In the critical moment, she pulled out the demon-slaying tranquilizer gun from her pocket and fired at them.
Bang bang bang...
Several gunshots rang out, and the demon soldiers fell to the ground, all wounded.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chu Yu took out a small electric scooter from his Qiankun bag, quickly jumped on it, stepped on the gas, and with a whoosh, the scooter sped away, racing along the palace road.
Seeing her escape on her electric scooter, the general angrily shouted, "Chase her!"
He led his demon soldiers into the air and gave chase.
Chu Yu's electric scooter had been upgraded and was extremely fast; they couldn't catch up with it at all.
The general, his face grim, gave the order: "Archers, prepare to fire!"
The demon soldiers drew bows and arrows from their backs and fired at Chu Yu as they chased after him.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
In an instant, countless arrows whistled through the wind and shot towards Chu Yu.
Chu Yu saw this scene in the rearview mirror of her electric scooter, and her heart jumped into her throat.
With so many arrows, she would be riddled with holes.
She gritted her teeth, floored the accelerator, and the electric scooter sped forward like lightning.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Countless arrows rained down on her, instantly planting countless arrowheads in the ground. Had she been any slower, she and her carriage would have been riddled with bullets.
Seeing that Chu Yu had dodged again, the general, who was chasing after him in mid-air, turned ashen with rage and gritted his teeth, ordering, "Keep firing!"
Soon, another volley of arrows came flying.
This volley of arrows was faster and fiercer, and just as it was about to hit Chu Yu, the electric scooter flashed white light and unleashed a defensive barrier, blocking all the incoming arrows.
Chu Yu was overjoyed. The electric donkey produced in the underworld was really good; it ran fast and even had a defensive barrier.
Not long after, Chu Yu rode his electric scooter to the vicinity of the palace gate.
Seeing that she was trying to escape from the palace, the general who was chasing after her shouted urgently to the demon soldiers guarding the gate: "Close the palace gates quickly!"
The demon soldiers snapped out of their daze and hurriedly went to close the palace gates.
Seeing that the palace gates were about to close, the electric scooter accelerated once more, and with a whoosh, it sped out like a hurricane at the last moment before the gates closed.
The general and the demon soldiers' expressions changed drastically.
She actually managed to escape.
There was a barrier above the palace walls, so they couldn't fly out directly to chase after them. The general shouted anxiously, "Open the palace gates and continue the chase!"
The demon soldiers guarding the gate immediately opened the palace gate, and the general led them out to continue the pursuit.
After rushing out of the palace gates, Chu Yu sped along the streets on her electric scooter. She glanced back and saw that the demon soldiers were chasing after her again. Remembering the teleportation token given to her by the Demon Lord, she realized that she hadn't had time to take it out because she was being chased so closely earlier. Now that she was out of the Demon Palace, she quickly took it out and used it.
She took out the teleportation token, chanted an incantation, and the moment she finished, with a whoosh, a flash of white light, and she and her car instantly disappeared from the street.
The general and the demon soldiers who had caught up were stunned.
