Chapter 345: Threatening Yinghua to Get Maidong
Although Zhanli is a demon, he is very intelligent. He can master 70% of the things taught by Lingxiang Sect in just one or two days.
To be honest, what Zhan Li has learned from Lingxiang over the years is actually nothing.
Lingxiang is good at making medicine and elixirs, but she only knows the basics of martial arts, so she has nothing to teach Zhanli.
But Lingxiang has read all the books in Langhuan Pavilion since she was a child. Regardless of whether she can fully comprehend them, the principles contained therein are more than enough to teach Zhanli.
Isn't it the truth that people learn in their lives? Only by learning the truth can they stand firm in the world.
When Lingxiang said she wanted to teach Zhanli Taoism, he had expressed doubts.
With his identity as a demon and no spiritual roots, how can he practice the methods of the human world?
Lingxiang just smiled and said, "After all these years in the Demon Realm, have you ever achieved anything through cultivation? Anyway, the Demon Realm's methods aren't working, so why not try a different approach?"
"There are countless avenues, and life is long, so why not give it a try?"
Things turned out just as Lingxiang expected, Zhanli succeeded.
Lingxiang has spent half her life trying to restore her spiritual roots, but to no avail, so her cultivation is mediocre. However, Zhanli has no spiritual roots at all, but has made rapid progress in Taoism.
But it's really strange!
There's something even stranger!
The demons are cold-hearted by nature, so even if they are a family, most of them are not like humans, with harmonious family ties, gradual moral development, or prominent teachers and friends.
But the strange thing is that even in such a demon world, the love for one's son is no different from that of the human race.
Back then, under the tyranny of the former Demon Lord, most demons were unable to complete the tribute of souls, so each family had to send one person to satisfy the Demon Lord's selfish desires.
Even so, most families would not send their children to Yinxu Palace. Many demons would rather sacrifice themselves than save their children.
Even the previous Demon Lord, before he died, was he not making plans for Zi Boyan's future?
Of course, it’s just the majority. After all, there are such unkind parents among the human race, let alone the demons?
It seems that there is indeed no essential difference between the demons and humans.
This is the case with the Zhanli family.
He had a younger brother. During the last tribute, Zhan Li planned to pay tribute to himself, but the night before, he was knocked unconscious by his younger brother.
Zhanli's younger brother sacrificed himself to save him.
Perhaps it was because he was thinking of his younger brother that Zhanli doted on Adao the moment he saw him. Or perhaps it was because of his parents and younger brother that a seed of kindness was planted in Zhanli.
Therefore, even though he was wandering in the market and suffered humiliation, Zhan Li never felt resentful or angry.
Zhanli's mother often said that no matter who you are, as long as you are alive, good things will always happen to you. Even if you are in the gutter, you must look up at the starry sky and yearn for that brilliance.
Although Zhan Li didn't know what the starry sky was, nor did he understand what brilliance looked like, he believed that it must be an extremely beautiful thing.
And now, Zhan Li finally encountered his starry sky, which is Lingxiang.
Although Lingxiang always orders Zhanli around, he understands Lingxiang's thoughtfulness.
Zhan Li felt that maybe his mother was like this!
When Zhanli was still young, his mother abandoned him in the dark Forest of No Return because he did not possess a demonic body. However, his mother hid in the dark and stayed with Zhanli all the time, never leaving.
In this cruel demon world, strength is the only capital for survival. His mother is just urging him on in her own way.
Zhan Li understood, but he was also in pain. However, this pain was gradually resolved as he got along with Ling Xiang.
What Lingxiang gave Zhanli was something he had never felt before, so Zhanli was willing to follow Lingxiang wholeheartedly, even if it meant going through fire and water.
As soon as Fang Yi came out from Yinghuan's place, he saw Adao waiting outside. The small guy was standing there with his hands folded, like a little adult.
As soon as Ah Dao saw Zhan Li, he began to lecture him seriously. He told him not to talk too much with Ying Huan, lest he reveal his master's plan, and that he should learn more about himself and how to deal with these evil people with ease.
Along the way, one person walked in front, one behind, one talking, one laughing. When they reached the Shiyang Palace, Ah Dao finally stopped and said righteously, "I am your senior brother. I entered the Dao earlier than you. I will learn more from you in everything. I will never harm you!"
After receiving Zhan Li's perfunctory response, the two of them entered the hall.
But not long after he entered, he was sent out again.
Lingxiang asked the two of them to invite Yinghuan to the main hall.
The word "please" made Adao and Zhanli very confused - when did the master become so polite to Yinghuan?
"Master, have you gone crazy?" Zhan Li really couldn't figure out why Lingxiang was so polite this time, so he could only ask Adao, who had followed Lingxiang longer than him.
"Go away! You're the one who's crazy!" Ah Dao would never allow anyone to say that about Ling Xiang in front of him. "Master has his reasons for doing this."
"What's the reason?" Seeing Adao's look, Zhanli asked intentionally.
Ah, this...
Ah Dao naturally didn't know, but he felt he had to pretend to know, after all, he was the eldest brother!
"If I tell you everything, is that still my master? Of course there must be a deeper meaning."
But Adao couldn't explain it clearly. He kept talking about other things and didn't get to the point at all.
Yinghuan was boiling water and was furious, but Lingxiang asked her to meet him, which made her even angrier. She walked at lightning speed all the way.
You little rascal, you're so young, why are you so troubled?
But when she arrived at the palace, Yinghuan was dumbfounded - Lingxiang had actually prepared a banquet for her.
What is this damn girl doing again?
Could it be that he wanted to poison her to death?
Oh! Superficial!
I'm immune to all poisons! How can I be afraid of your little poison?
But the man next to the dead girl is really...
As soon as Yinghuan entered the Shiyang Palace, she stared at Bo Luohui without blinking. Her straight gaze made Bo Luohui feel uncomfortable all over.
Seeing this, Lingxiang couldn't help but regret - if she had known earlier, she would have used the beauty trap, why bother with the Hongmen Banquet, what a waste!
But what Lingxiang didn't know was that what Yinghuan was thinking about was how to eat such a delicious man.
It has been so long since she last ate a human! She can’t even remember how long it has been!
Lingxiang cleared her throat, interrupting Yinhuan's wild thoughts, and invited Yinhuan to sit at the table, which made Yinhuan even more suspicious.
Could it be that this damn girl has gone crazy?
How is that possible!
Even if you kill me, I will never believe that Lingxiang is so kind.
"If you have something to say, just say it. If you have to fart, fart quickly. I'm busy!"
Busy with your bullshit!
"Tsk! That's straightforward!" Lingxiang slammed the table and said, "Then I won't beat around the bush. Where's Maidong?"
Oh, it’s for her!
"I thought you had forgotten your good sisters since you became a princess!" Yinghuan said as she took a seat, showing no respect at all.
"Hi yo yo~"
As soon as Yinghuan took her seat, Lingxiang started singing. The melody was so winding, even more melodious than that of human actors, that it made her shiver.
"Isn't it all for my father, the Demon King? General, you know that his strange illness can never be cured. And I'm not an expert in medicine, but when I think of my father, the Demon King, in that state, my heart aches."
"Maidong's medical skills are superior to mine. There must be a way. As long as he can cure my father, the Demon King..."
Lingxiang said this, pretending to take a breath.
"Could it be that the general does not want the Demon King's father to recover?"
"you!"
