Chapter 125 Chapter 125

…

"Those monsters are so shameless that they actually launched a sneak attack." In the dense forest, Miao, who was forced to wrap himself up as a white peacock, was cursing.

You Lin picked up the last strange creature and sent it flying, ending its sinful life with a wind blade. After doing all this, he did not respond to Miao's complaints, but carefully took out a piece of scarlet feather from his arms, and after carefully checking it, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was no damage.

He raised his head and looked into the distance, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Our whereabouts have been leaked, and someone doesn't want us to close the door."

Since the battle in the human world, the enemy has tasted the sweetness and started to continuously create "gates" to release weirdness into the world. In the past six months alone, the number of "gates" closed by Phoenix has exceeded three digits.

The initial "gate" was not stable, and could only pass some low-level monsters. They had basically no thinking ability and were not very strong, so they were still easy to deal with. But as time went on, the "gate" created by the enemy became larger and more stable. Finally, one day, the first true evil god came to their world.

Phoenix still solved the opponent safely, but from then on, the enemy began to play tactics. They seemed to know that only the power of Phoenix could fill the cracks, so every time the "door" was opened, several small doors would appear in the rest of the area.

Although the soldiers that emerged from it were not very powerful, the black fog that followed was enough to cause headaches. If it could not be dealt with in time, then this area would become a dead zone. Phoenix could not ignore it, but even if he used his incarnation, he was powerless to deal with it.

Obviously, this is a conspiracy - they want to use this to kill the phoenix. Fortunately, this situation is not unsolvable. After discovering the intentions of the evil gods, the phoenix will occasionally rub out a feather to store energy, and when necessary, give it to the trusted monster to close those cracks that cannot be taken care of.

The purpose of You Lin's trip is to close the rift and solve the worries of Phoenix who is far away on the main battlefield.

After dealing with these sneak attackers, the two demons did not stop and continued to rush towards the target area.

"You mean, there's a traitor in the tribe?" Perhaps because he was too shocked, Miao's voice even took a detour. There weren't many monsters who knew the route of this operation well. After excluding the most unlikely tribe leader, only he and You Lin were left. Could it be that...

Miao swallowed nervously, and with difficulty stretched out the wing tip from the bandage to point at himself: "There is only one truth, that is - I am the traitor."

"..." You Lin was stunned by this guy's train of thought and was silent for a while before he said, "There is no insider. They must have spied on our whereabouts in some way."

For the demon race, even if it means death, they would never betray the Demon King, let alone Miao.

"Yeah, that's true." Peacock realized that he had acted foolishly in front of his boss and laughed awkwardly. He coughed twice and forced a change of subject: "Ahem... well, Xiao Sanhuo is also at the age of transformation this year. It should be in these few days. Hey~ When I think about going home and seeing my baby's human body, I am filled with energy."

"Congratulations." You Lin said.

Miao clasped his wings in return, then quickly spread them out, continuing to fly gracefully as if nothing had happened. Although the other party's expressionless look made this congratulation seem a little strange, Miao was no longer surprised by this. It was normal. In all the years they had worked together, he had never seen this guy show any other expression towards creatures other than phoenixes.

But soon he glanced at You Lin furtively. Because just now, a poor old father suddenly remembered something that could kill him - his little boy, who was in his middle school years, liked to imitate big monsters like You Lin.

So here comes the question, what if after the bird transforms, it looks in the mirror and thinks: Well, not bad, cool, and then it goes on the road of ice face and never returns? I can't let my cute bird become like this, can I?

Thinking this way, Miao said this sentence unconsciously. Although he quickly realized that something was wrong and tried to remedy the situation, it was too late. You Lin on the side didn't say anything, but his flying speed silently increased.

At this point, both parties feel that they may need a little help in the workplace.

You Lin didn't have any desire to communicate, he just wanted to get to the destination as soon as possible to resolve the rift. But the journey was long, and Miao, who was a chatterbox, couldn't hold back for a long time.

In his words, the world has become like this, he will die today or tomorrow, and if he doesn't finish gossiping before he dies, he has to hold it in and survive. In order to relieve the psychological pressure, or for the sake of his own physical and mental health, after failing to find a topic for the nth time, Miao used his trump card.

As the saying goes, gossip is a good way to heal the body and mind. Miao narrowed his eyes and said slyly, "Boss You Lin, what kind of magic potion have you given to our Majesty recently?"

You Lin didn't stop moving, but finally gave him a straight look: "What do you mean?"

"Hey, I didn't say that. Many people in the tribe are spreading the story. We built a new Penglai Cave a while ago, but I don't know when a hollow wooden sculpture was added inside. It's made of paulownia wood. Who do you think it is?"

"I." After all, as a dragon who had been baptized by the literature of the handsome scholar, You Lin almost immediately guessed what this unfortunate colleague wanted to express. He turned his head away, refusing to think whether the "tribe" mentioned by Miao was simply the feather tribe or the demon tribe.

Miao chuckled, "I knew you knew. Although our Majesty doesn't have any obsession with material things, he treasures those paulownia wood very much and never uses them lightly. And now...tsk tsk tsk tsk. Although everyone now says that you did it yourself, based on my understanding of His Majesty, this must have been done by him personally, it can't be fake."

"To be honest, I was really shocked when I first saw it. The statue is exactly the same as the original. If you didn't know, you would think they were building a statue for you to attract some worshippers." Miao said with a nagging expression, and deliberately lowered his voice, "Boss You Lin, we've known each other for so long, so just give me a hint..."

"No, don't think too much. That was what I did. Phoenix wanted an iconic building. He and I are just ordinary monarchs and subjects, and friends." You Lin interrupted him expressionlessly but very quickly. If he could, he really wanted to pinch this guy's mouth.

Although he was puzzled by Phoenix's behavior this time, he believed that his best friend must have his reasons for doing so.

You Lin could never understand what those guys who were trying to match him up with Feng Huang were thinking, because the relationship between him and Feng Huang couldn't be simpler - closeness and trust, that's all.

They had been with each other since the beginning, and they were like family. Although they were inseparable, they were not in love. To use the words of the human monks, they were the other half of each other's soul. No decent person would have such thoughts about his own half, and he was not a mad pervert.

"Okay, okay, you're right." I really can't imagine what this blockhead will look like after he gets his mind turned on. Miao shook his head pretending to be sorry, but saw You Lin suddenly speed up, and in the blink of an eye, only a gradually receding back figure remained. He hurriedly said, "Hey, wait for me, I'm injured and can't fly as fast as you--"

…

You Lin saw the battlefield from the air and his heart suddenly tightened.

There is no barrier here.

The first thing that came into view was a tree that towered into the sky. You Lin recognized it at a glance as an elder of the Dragon Vine Clan. At this moment, its branches seemed to have lost all vitality and drooped weakly, and many of the vines were broken.

The second is the crack in the sky that continuously releases black eerie energy. No matter from the specifications or size, it cannot be the ordinary small "door" used to disperse power.

The Dragon Vine Tree Demon's innate barrier can isolate the evil spirits. It is like temporarily creating an independent small bubble in the world bubble, completely isolating the world inside the bubble from the world wall. With this feature, they can even bounce the cracks out of the barrier range.

But powerful abilities are bound to fatal flaws. The dragon vine tree's barrier is bound to life. If the barrier is broken, the tree will die. Now this situation...

Miao, who had hurried over, was also shocked when he saw this situation. He rushed after You Lin without thinking too much.

This place has already fallen, and the battlefield is filled with thick black fog. The big demons fight with the evil god with all their might, but the gap in life level is almost an insurmountable chasm, and they are no match for the evil god at all.

One after another, big demons were seriously injured and died, turning into bloody meteors and smashing into the ground. Soon, a group of small demons rushed in from their hiding place and hurriedly carried them away for treatment.

You Lin turned into a stream of light and rushed into the main battlefield, holding his gun horizontally to block the attack of the evil god. Behind him was an old black dragon, which was too old and seriously injured to dodge the attack.

After not seeing him for many years, he thought he had forgotten what that person looked like. He also imagined that if he met him again, it would take him a long time to remember who he was. But sometimes the power of blood is so magical that even if the impression in his mind has become blurred, as long as he takes a look from a distance, he can clearly recognize that it is his nominal father, Xuan Lin.

"You've changed." You Lin didn't look back. Unlike the image in his memory, Xuan Lin was now very old, and his movements became slower, no longer as agile as before. He was old.

Xuan Lin also recognized the child he had abandoned. When he heard the sound of weapons colliding, he realized belatedly that it was You Lin who saved him. He looked at the other person's back, and suddenly a myriad of thoughts flashed through his mind.

He might have wanted to say something, to express his regret for what he had done, or to express his relief at You Lin's current situation. But in the end, he could only utter dryly, "You have lived a good life these years."
