The Demon Realm's Never-Sleeping Palace.
Inside the enormous palace, Demon Lord Lou Munan sat high above, with Qianxun, dressed in red, sitting beside him.
Qianxun's long, black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, with long tassels hanging down to her collarbone. Her red dress was embroidered with the totem of the red spider lily. Her eyes, which were originally azure blue, had now turned red like Lou Munan's, like blood-red rubies, shimmering with a cold light.
Even though she looks exactly like A Yao, as long as you look into her eyes, you won't mistake her for Feng Yao, the young emperor of the Phoenix Clan.
The Night King, the Netherworld Emperor, and the Evil Moon Saintess all knelt on the ground, drenched in cold sweat. Ruji stood by, watching, her face expressionless and grave.
The Night King, the Nine Netherworld Emperor, and the Evil Moon Saintess were all extremely pale, with the Night King's complexion being the most grim. They were kneeling there because their attack on the Demon Realm had failed; they hadn't yet conquered it. The Night King had even been seriously injured, which made Lou Munan feel that the three of them were utterly useless.
Originally, the demon realm was suffering repeated defeats under the demon army led by the three demon gods, and almost even the demon emperor's palace was captured. But who knew that the phoenix clan and the sword god palace would actually support the demon emperor? The two immortal emperors, Phoenix Empress Feng Wu and Sword God Xie Chen, came in person, and later the leader of the ancient realm, Dao Kuang Li Yan, also joined the battle, which immediately turned the tide of the war.
Lou Munan was already in a bad mood after returning from the Wugui Starfield.
Now he's in an even worse mood.
"You can't even handle this small matter? Are you all useless?" Lou Munan's tone was extremely cold, and his terrifying aura filled the entire Nevernight Palace. The Night King, the Nine Netherworld Emperor, and the Evil Moon Saint Mother's expressions grew increasingly grim.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us. We never expected that Feng Wu, Xie Chen, and Li Yan would help the Demon Emperor Tian Luo," Night King said, bowing his head.
“Soliciting excuses.” Qianxun, sitting next to Lou Munan, spoke up. She looked coldly at Ye Wang. “You’re not capable enough and you don’t even dare to admit it. You’ve been seriously injured and are in such a sorry state. You still have the nerve to defend yourself when you come back here.”
Chihiro's voice was clear and cold, but extremely pleasant to hear, like jade beads hitting a jade plate, making a crisp sound.
The Night King was furious upon hearing her words.
Although Qianxun had become a demon god in her heart, everyone knew how she had acquired her power. The Night King looked down on Qianxun, believing her power was merely due to her skillful seduction, having bewitched the Demon Lord Xuantian and climbed into his bed. Now, she dared to be so arrogant and mock him.
That despicable woman!
The Night King had always wanted the Primordial Spider Lily, but now it has become Chihiro's natal magic weapon.
He didn't have the guts to steal it, so he hated Chihiro even more.
Chihiro looked at the Night King, who was kneeling with his head bowed. She rose from her throne, her bare, fair feet treading the mirror-like steps as she descended. After climbing more than a dozen steps, she stood atop them, looking down at the Night King:
Is there something you're unhappy about with me?
Upon hearing this, the Night King broke out in a cold sweat. He knew perfectly well that the Demon Lord was completely obedient to this woman, even willing to be her vessel; if she so much as whispered something in his ear, he would be finished.
"Your subordinate dares not," the Night King said, bowing his head.
"Raise your head." Chihiro's voice remained cold and clear.
The Night King nervously raised his head, meeting Qianxun's blood-red eyes. Suddenly, a pitch-black sun appeared behind Qianxun, and the entire floor of the hall was covered with bewitching red spider lilies. The demon-level pressure caused the space to tremble, and black and red light bands shot out from Qianxun's body like tentacles, piercing through the Night King's body.
What? !
This unexpected turn of events surprised everyone present.
They never expected Chihiro to kill someone in public.
Kill a demon god.
The Night King screamed in agony, furiously trying to fight back, only to discover that the woman he had looked down upon was far stronger than he had imagined. He had just been injured by Xie Chen, the Palace Master of the Sword God Palace, and was now no match for Qian Xun; he couldn't even escape. A formation appeared beneath his feet and above his head, a red and black formation bearing the totem of the red spider lily.
From this formation, streaks of red lightning shot out, striking him like countless chains that bound him tightly, while the bands of light piercing through his body were frantically absorbing his cultivation.
The furnace and cauldron are not limited to the method of absorbing yin to supplement yang or absorbing yang to supplement yin.
Absorbing the cultivation of others in this way can also be regarded as using others as a furnace or vessel.
Qianxun learned this move from Lou Munan.
"Aaaaaaahh ...
The Night King's piercing screams echoed throughout the palace, sending chills down the spines of those around him.
Qianxun remained indifferent, while Lou Munan watched her with a smile, seemingly finding the scene quite amusing.
Amidst the horrified gazes of Ruji, the Netherworld Emperor, and the Evil Moon Holy Mother, the Night King had all his cultivation drained by Qianxun, and was subsequently killed by her.
This once mighty ninth Lord of Hell vanished into thin air, his spirit and form scattered.
Ruji's face was very ugly; even a demon god could not control his own destiny.
Even demons are still just grass.
Chihiro stood on the high steps, her entire body radiating a red light, countless ribbons of light fluttering up, and the red spider lilies beneath her feet releasing a dazzling red glow. The cultivation of a demon god was still a bit too much for her, but it didn't matter; she would digest it slowly.
She glanced at the Nine Netherworld Emperor and the Evil Moon Saintess, both of whom were terrified by her gaze.
If this woman really wanted to drain all their cultivation, I'm afraid Demon Lord Xuantian would have no choice but to agree.
He was willing to let her absorb his own cultivation, so why wouldn't he be willing to give up someone else's cultivation?
Chihiro glanced at the two of them, then turned and slowly walked upwards. She climbed the steps back to her throne and sat down. With a wave of her hand, a red spider lily appeared before her, its alluring red light filled with temptation.
“If you lot fail to perform your duties effectively, you’ll end up like the Night King.” Lou Munan glanced at the Nine Netherworld Emperor, the Evil Moon Holy Mother, and Ruji.
"Your subordinate understands. Your subordinate will certainly do his best to share the burdens of the Demon Lord in the future."
The Nine Netherworld Emperor and others immediately pledged their loyalty.
"Since I'm free anyway, and things have come to this, I'll go to the Demon Realm myself! I want to see what other tricks they have up their sleeves." Lou Munan said. Is Feng Wu in the Demon Realm? Very good, very good. Kill this woman, I wonder what Feng Yao's reaction will be?
Suddenly, he turned to look at Chihiro.
Chihiro stared blankly at the flower in her hand, her exquisite face even more stunning in the red light.
It seems more fun to have Feng Yao's clone kill her beloved master.
Yes, is this what makes it satisfying?
His own clone betrayed him, killed his master, and slaughtered his clansmen. What kind of interesting expression would Feng Yao have then? Lou Munan was already a little excited just thinking about how Feng Yao would collapse.
