Chapter 205 Damn it, they're in cahoots (First Update) Okay...
Jing Yue suddenly appeared next to Song Yin, and Shen Yuzhu and the others instantly drew their swords and aimed them at her.
Mo You said fiercely, "This is not Mo Jin's territory. Go back to Mo Jin's territory!"
Jing Yue looked Song Yin up and down, carefully examined her, then glanced at Shi Heming a few times before turning her gaze back to Song Yin, even taking a few sniffs.
"Why is Senior in the Demon Realm?" Song Yin broke the silence.
Jing Yue beckoned with her finger, snatched Mo You's chair, and sat down without any politeness. "You two know my situation, but there's a big problem now. I haven't been able to ascend. I heard there's a Blood Demon Cave and a Blood Demon Pool in the Demon Realm, so I came here specifically. It's been hundreds of years since we last met, and I didn't expect your cultivation to have improved so quickly."
"I see." Song Yin introduced to Shen Yuzhu and the others, "This is a senior that Shi Heming and I met when we were young. His surname is Jing. We met back then in the Xuan Tian Realm."
Back then, Jing Yue was already at the Mahayana stage, and she was a demon clan member by Mo Jin's side. They were acquaintances, or rather, familiar demons.
Since they were acquaintances, Shen Yuzhu and the others sheathed their swords and greeted each other warmly as "seniors."
"This is Mo Ying's territory. Are you planning to help Mo Ying?"
"I haven't agreed yet."
Jing Yue glanced around, clearly understanding their cultivation levels; Song Yin was the one with the highest cultivation among them. She remembered Song Yin for two simple reasons: first, because Song Yin had helped her escape the Floating Dream Secret Realm; and second, because she had consistently possessed pure wood-attribute spiritual energy throughout the year.
Upon seeing Song Yin, Jing Yue instinctively wanted to ask her to share some of her spiritual energy. However, she quickly realized this was the Demon Realm, where human cultivators couldn't cultivate without spiritual energy. While her demon race also needed spiritual energy for cultivation, she was a plant-based demon, not entirely reliant on it; she could cultivate as long as there were plants. To her, the plants of the Demon Realm were like heavily seasoned food, lacking the mildness of spiritual energy.
Jing Yue: "Since you're already here, I suggest you go through the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool."
Mo You: "You...you're all in cahoots?!"
Damn it, those annoying demons are actually in cahoots with Elder Song and his group!
Jing Yue automatically filtered out Mo You and started telling Song Yin other things, "The Demon Emperor is dying, and he won't see anyone except his close ministers, and his close ministers..."
Jing Yue laughed out loud and secretly transmitted the second half of her sentence to Song Yin: "His close ministers also want the Demon Emperor's throne. Whoever is strong can become the Demon Emperor. It doesn't matter if the bloodline is impure. After passing through the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool, the bloodline can still become pure. The current Demon Emperor is a minister of the previous Demon Emperor. He killed the previous Demon Emperor and also killed the previous Demon Emperor's offspring."
This is all information that Jing Yue collected during her time in the Demon Realm. The news that her close advisors also wanted to become the Demon Emperor was unknown to the Demon Emperor himself, nor to his ten offspring.
Jing Yue: "The matter concerning my close advisor is a secret. I'm telling you such a big secret. How about you give me some pure wood-attribute spiritual energy after we leave the Demon Realm?"
Song Yin transmitted her voice: "I've always had a question: why hasn't Senior Jing Yue ascended yet?"
Jing Yue curled her lip and transmitted her voice: "You girl, your words are like stabbing me in the back. If I could ascend, I would have done it long ago. My strength is enough, but I'm always just one step away from ascension. I couldn't find an opportunity in the Demon Realm, so I came to the Demon Realm. Do you have any suggestions? You helped me leave the Floating Dream Secret Realm back then, so helping me ascend now shouldn't be too difficult."
Song Yin transmitted her voice: "I also want to ascend, senior, how about you help me?"
Jing Yue transmitted her voice: "Okay, I'll take you to the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool."
Song Yin transmitted her voice: "Senior has already been to these two places?"
Jing Yue transmitted her voice: "I went, but unfortunately it didn't help much. Cultivation is like water in a cup. My cup is always full. No matter how much water comes, it can't be contained unless I ascend to the upper realm and make the cup bigger. You are different. Some of your cups have a lot of water, and some have a little water, but none of them are full."
To others, Jing Yue and Song Yin's sudden silence was obvious, but everyone knew they were communicating telepathically.
Meanwhile, Mo Ying arrived at lightning speed, without any obstacles along the way.
Mo Ying muttered to herself, "Damn it, I should have kept an eye on Mo You first. Now he's exposed to that woman again! I just hope that the human cultivators can help us when a fight breaks out. Otherwise, Mo You, who hasn't experienced the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool, will only get beaten to death."
Having finally arrived, Mo Ying strode into the unclosed gate. "Mo Jin's supporters aren't staying by Mo Jin's side, but instead coming to my territory to cause trouble. Do they think I, Mo Ying, am easy to bully, or do they think I, Mo Ying, have no demonic support behind me?"
In an instant, seven human cultivators, one demon, and two demon princes gathered together.
As soon as Mo Ying arrived, the few insignificant demons immediately retreated. Mo Ying's subordinates then arranged for other demons to surround the area.
Jing Yue wasn't afraid of Mo Ying, nor was she afraid of any demon. "It's you, you fierce-tempered and scheming demon girl."
Mo Ying laughed instead of getting angry, "You call me so affectionately, what? Do you want to abandon my elder brother and support me instead?"
Jing Yue: "Okay."
Mo Ying: "I know you won't... what?" I couldn't get her to agree to anything I offered her before, so why did she agree to it so easily today?
Jing Yue: "I said okay." It doesn't matter who she supports, since she has already been to the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool, and she can leave at any time.
Meeting Song Yin in the Demon Realm was completely unexpected, but it also made her realize something: perhaps she could ascend to immortality because of her, just as she had been freed from her predicament back then.
Although Song Yin did not agree to support Mo Ying, she and her entourage brought Mo You back and lived on Mo Ying's territory. Mo Ying himself even brought them back. These actions undoubtedly declared to the outside world that several humans had joined the Third Prince Mo Ying's camp.
Jing Yue agreed not because she chose to stand by Mo Ying's side, but because she chose to stand by Song Yin's side.
Mo Ying's arrival and Jing Yue's immediate betrayal sent things spiraling in different directions.
"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful!" Song Yin exclaimed, then transmitted her voice to the other six people.
Chu Tang transmitted her voice: "Master, there are some things I don't understand."
Even Han Wuyue couldn't help but send a telepathic message to everyone: "If the Crown Prince knew that this senior had switched his support to his rival, would he be so angry that he would vomit blood?"
Ling Zixian transmitted his voice: "Elder Song, has your life always been this exciting?" His topic veered off course, as he was astonished by Song Yin's extraordinary experiences. To encounter familiar demons from the demon realm while in the demon palace of the demon realm? This turn of events was more outrageous and exciting than any fictional story. Two completely unrelated people were connected by Elder Song—tsk tsk tsk.
At first, he was slightly dissatisfied, wondering why his master insisted that he follow Elder Song. Now he understood. From now on, when Elder Song goes out, he will be the first to follow without his master's persuasion!
Shen Yuzhu transmitted his voice: "You two, please tell me more about this senior."
Song Yin did not explain, so Shi Heming briefly explained the whole story.
Han Wuyue immediately grasped the key point after hearing this and transmitted her voice: "So you and Xiao Daiheng killed several Nascent Soul cultivators before you even reached the Nascent Soul stage?" She couldn't have heard wrong, could she?
Shi Heming transmitted his voice: "That's roughly the story. We became acquainted with Xiao Daiheng because of this matter."
How could we not be close? We've been through thick and thin together.
After a long period of struggle without success, this sudden success only heightened Mo Ying's vigilance. "The reason."
Jing Yue pointed at Song Yin, "She is the reason."
"Huh? Is there anything else I need to do?" Song Yin, who had been watching the commotion, snapped out of her daze and was just about to grab a handful of melon seeds to crack open.
Mo Ying instantly shifted her gaze, her thoughts churning.
Before long, Mo Ying smiled and said to Song Yin and the group, "So that's how it is. It is truly a blessing from heaven that I, Mo Ying, can get to know you all. Not only did you send my brother back, but you also sent me a great gift."
There are still demons in the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool, but rest assured, they will emerge by the day after tomorrow at the latest. If you wish, I will immediately arrange for you to join Mo You on a training expedition once they are released.
"I dare not ask you all to fight for me, I only ask that you stay here for as long as you are in the Demon Realm."
As long as she can keep them, she can keep this demon clan member, even if the demon clan member won't do anything for her. In that case, her elder brother will lose a major ally, and she will have more hope.
Song Yin looked at the people around her, her meaning clear: she was asking them if they were willing.
Shi Heming was the first to respond, nodding slightly. The others followed suit.
It was like a godsend; they had initially been intrigued by Mo You, but before long, Mo Ying personally offered to arrange for them to enter the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool. They wouldn't ask any questions about the method, as long as the result was good.
Song Yin: "We promise you."
Mo Ying: "That's great, I'll start preparing tonight."
Jingyue asked Moying, "Are there any rooms available here?"
Mo Ying: "Yes, of course."
To show her sincerity, Mo Ying personally led Jing Yue over.
After Jing Yue and Mo Ying left, Mo You, who had been silent all along, let out a long sigh of relief. The commotion had attracted the attention of others.
Mo You choked on her words, "Why didn't you say you were in cahoots earlier?"
Song Yin spread her hands: "We didn't know that the demon race you mentioned was the same demon race I knew. And one more thing to note, now you've become a member of this 'group' too."
“Alright, we’re on the same team now.” Mo You accepted reality. “We’ll train together. You don’t know anything about the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool, so let me tell you some things to be aware of beforehand.”
"Speaking."
Mo You: "As can be seen from the names, both the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool are related to blood. The blood inside comes from various creatures in the Demon Realm. In most cases, the blood of creatures will gather in them after they die, nourishing the Blood Demon Cave and the Blood Demon Pool."
"As I told you before, it can enhance the bloodline of demons. The main reason it can do this is because demons with high bloodline purity become nourishment for the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool after failing to seize the position of Demon Emperor. For the losers, not only their flesh and blood become nourishment, but their souls also become nourishment."
"Since the blood of living beings is an important part of them, it contains all kinds of emotions, resentments, obsessions and so on that remain in the blood. When you first enter consciousness, you will suffer a huge shock. You may mistake yourself for other living beings, or these shocks may amplify your obsessions and emotions."
"Therefore, those who enter this training ground must maintain a firm will and avoid being corrupted by these influences..."
Mo You spoke at length and in one breath, emphasizing his point repeatedly at the end.
"Those who possess inner demons must be extremely vigilant. It sounds somewhat ironic, but the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool gather all kinds of negative energy in the world, and to emerge from them safely, one needs a firm and pure heart."
Two days later, a group of demons and monsters emerged from the Blood Demon Cave and Blood Demon Pool. Following them, Song Yin and her companions went with Mo You, accompanied by Mo Ying and her subordinates, as well as Jing Yue, whom all the demons considered to be part of the First Prince's faction.
