Suddenly, Li Gan made a move, and a large amount of demonic energy transformed into a black rope that nimbly wrapped around Li Molin's body, binding him tightly.
The other end of the rope extended into Li Gan's hand. He held the rope with only one hand, looking unusually relaxed, but Li Molin could not break free from the rope's bindings no matter what he did, nor could he take a step forward.
"Father!" Seeing that Liuli was about to run out of the main hall, Li Molin turned to Li Gan and pleaded, "Father, let me go! Liuli cannot go to the Central Plains alone, absolutely not!"
Li Gan said indifferently, "Don't worry, she won't die. If you really want to go, try the clan elder's ancient prescription first."
Li Molin was extremely anxious, but he knew that since Li Gan had said that, he would definitely not let him go now. So he nodded and said urgently, "Alright, then please, elders, begin the trial now!"
"Okay." Li Gan loosened his grip, and the rope made of demonic energy quietly disappeared.
Li Molin turned his head and looked around, only to find that Liuli was no longer in the hall. He felt a deep sense of loss and was very worried about Liuli's safety. He turned back to Li Gan and pleaded, "Please, Father, keep an eye on Liuli's safety at all times. If anything happens to Liuli, I will wish I were dead!"
Li Gan remained silent for a while before nodding and replying, "Okay."
Li Molin was slightly relieved. He turned to look in the direction of the palace gate. Although he could no longer see Liuli's figure, he still stared at her intently, unwilling to look away for a long time.

After leaving the Winged Lord's Palace, Liuli strode forward with a cold smile on her face. Just thinking that no one would stop her from leaving the Demon Realm filled her with joy. The thought that she could soon avenge herself and the entire Nine-Tailed Fox Clan made her eyes slowly fill with a fierce light. Her gaze was so sharp that it shrouded her entire face in a sinister cold light.
"girl!"
"Miss Liuli!"
Two calls suddenly rang out from the path behind Liuli. She turned around and saw a young man and a young woman running towards her.
The two women ran to Liuli's side and walked behind her, one on each side. One of the women said, "Miss, we just received news that someone attacked you just now?"
The man then said, "Please don't blame us, young lady. We rushed over as soon as we received the news, but we still couldn't help you."
Liuli smiled coldly and said indifferently, "Those who fought with me were a bunch of trash, so I don't need your help."
These two young men were subordinates that Liuli had recruited a few years ago. The woman's name was Yu Xin and the man's name was Ge Yiyuan.
The demon race is a race that respects the strong. Over the years, Liuli has been unable to leave the demon realm, so she has been causing trouble everywhere in the demon realm, stirring up conflicts for various reasons. In the process, many demons hate Liuli, but there are also some who admire Liuli's ruthlessness and strength and want to pledge their allegiance to her.
With a wicked sense of humor, Liuli made the hundreds of people fight each other for a day and a night, and finally chose these two from among the winners.
Both of them were young and had good aptitude. Yu Xin's cultivation had already reached the early stage of the Demon Heart realm. She was alluring, had a wicked personality, and was intelligent.
Yu Xin was dressed provocatively, her clothes extremely revealing, exposing large expanses of her snow-white skin. Not only was she alluring in appearance, but every movement, every smile, was exceptionally captivating.
This woman was truly wicked. She often used her seductive manners to provoke many demon men to fight for her. And when the fighting was at its most intense and people were about to die, she would clap and cheer from the sidelines. She was someone who feared nothing more than a peaceful world.
Ge Yiyuan's cultivation level was somewhat lower, at the late stage of Demonic Thought. He was considered handsome among demons, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. His personality was flamboyant and carefree, and he loved to laugh and joke, which was quite different from the sinister and cold nature of ordinary demons.
"Let's go." A wicked smile played on Liuli's lips as she tossed her chin up and laughed, "I'll take you to the Central Plains to wipe out all those bald Buddhist monks!"
Yu Xin smiled charmingly and said lazily, "Miss, are you going to the Central Plains? Will Young Master Lin let you go?"
Liuli sneered, "Li Gan let me go, he can't stop me!"
Yu Xin raised an eyebrow, surprised, and asked, "Did His Majesty personally order the release of the young lady?"
Liuli nodded and replied, "Mm."
Ge Yiyuan laughed and said, "The Central Plains is a good place. I remember the last time I went to the Central Plains was several years ago."
Liuli endured the complex gazes and hushed whispers of the many demons lining the road. Annoyed, she curled her lip, lightly touched the ground with her toes, and took flight. The instant she took off, she called out, "You two, follow me! Let's go!"
Yu Xin and Ge Yiyuan nodded to each other, then flew up and followed closely behind Liuli.
After leaving the Demon Realm, Liuli first had Ge Yiyuan inquire about news from the many demonic birds scattered in various places. They learned that the Central Plains had been unified again, and Xuanyuan Hao, who possessed the Imperial Seal, had defeated Xuanyuan Lie and unified the Central Plains with the support of a group of strategists and famous generals.
After unifying the world, Xuanyuan Hao rewarded the Northern Rong handsomely. He allowed Yelü Yan to retain the title of King of the Northern Rong and the throne to be hereditary. He also married his princess to the crown prince of the Northern Rong, thus completely appeasing the Northern Rong.
Next, he implemented Lao Tzu's philosophy of non-action, refraining from excessive intervention in the lives and production of the people. He ordered reduced taxes and corvée labor, restoring many beneficial systems established during Emperor Yan's reign. He was compassionate towards his subjects and frugal in his own life, earning him widespread praise for his virtue.
At this time, Buddhism and Taoism coexisted in the Central Plains without any distinction of strength or weakness. However, Emperor Chang believed in Lao Tzu's philosophy and inevitably showed great respect for Taoism. It was feared that Buddhism would gradually decline and never regain its former glory.
“Xuanyuan Hao…” Liuli’s gaze was blank, and she quietly thought of a gentle and refined man, and his warm smile.
After a moment, Liuli changed her mind, her gaze gradually turning cold. She gave a cold laugh and said in a chilling voice, "Buddhism, not to mention the suppression of Taoism against them, just the fact that I, Liuli, am lucky enough to survive means it's time for them to pay for their blood debts!"
Yu Xin and Ge Yiyuan exchanged a glance, noticing the icy glint in Liu Li's eyes as she spoke. Yu Xin shrugged and muttered under her breath, "Looks like Buddhism is in for trouble..."
Ge Yiyuan nodded in deep agreement.
The Northern Rong Grasslands are very close to the Northern Demon Realm, and Liu Li and Yu Xin arrived there quickly. It was early summer, and the climate in Northern Rong was cool and pleasant due to its northern location.
This vast grassland occupies a large area in northern Central China, with its widest point from north to south measuring over 600 li and its widest point from east to west measuring over 1,000 li. The entire grassland is lush with water and grass, and has gentle slopes. Fresh winds blow from time to time, causing the grass to ripple like waves, forming a green ocean. The grass blades are bent by the wind, revealing the silhouettes of numerous cattle, sheep, and horses.
