Chapter 56 The demon hunter is not getting rid of demons (16)
The Nine Cloud Fox Demon and the giant dragon are engaged in a fierce fight.
"You troublesome fox demon!" the dragon roared. "We're out looking for new territory and water. What does that have to do with you?! Why do you keep us at your feet?!"
"It depends on your strength. As long as you can beat me, no one can tell you where you go." The Nine Cloud Fox Demon said the cruelest words in the coldest voice.
While he was dealing with the battle, he did not forget to release a clone to take Shi Sui and Xiao Jin to a safe place.
They lay on the clone of the Nine Cloud Fox Demon and flew into the air. They had to hold on to the hair on his neck tightly to avoid being blown away by the overwhelming demonic wind.
Princess Xiaojin stared at him intently, her eyes full of admiration.
The Nine Cloud Fox Demon is a lone wolf in the Jinge Desert and an alien in the demon world.
Ever since the monsters and the twenty-nine cities in the Western Regions drew boundaries and agreed to a ceasefire 300 years ago, there have actually been many big monsters of similar level to the Nine-Cloud Fox Demon, who have been ready to make a move from time to time.
But before they could leave Jinge's lair, they were all taken care of by the Nine Cloud Fox Demon without exception.
If he hadn't silently acted as a thug in Jin Ge's lair, the twenty-nine cities in the Western Regions really wouldn't have been able to live and work in peace for so many years.
People say that the Nine Cloud Fox Demon is heartless, and he is indeed heartless. Even when his own daughter comes to him, he just frowns.
To say that he is unrighteous, well... you really can't say that he is unrighteous!
Just because Princess Wenzhu's ancestors had saved his life, he resolutely served as the first line of defense for hundreds of thousands of people in the Western Regions in a place where no one could see.
In order to repay his gratitude, the Nine Cloud Fox Demon fought against the extremely terrifying monster for many years.
On the other hand, in order to satisfy his selfish desire to "dominate the Western Regions", Bu Yuchuan actually wanted to use the "Monster Contract" to let the Nine Cloud Fox Demon help him harm his blood-related compatriots.
Jiuyun Fox Demon and Bu Yuchuan, who is the monster and who is the human? Shi Sui couldn't tell for a moment...
"Okay, we can continue."
It didn't take long for the Nine Cloud Fox Demon to end the battle between him and the dragon with overwhelming advantage.
He returned as a king and threw the severed dragon head in front of Princess Xiaojin.
"Eat it."
Even though he was greeting his own daughter, the big monster remained so indifferent.
Princess Xiaojin used her hands and feet to break off the dragon horn and began to chew it with hearty grunts.
After absorbing the body of the big monster, Princess Xiaojin's demonic power will increase greatly.
Shisui rubbed her head and smiled and told her: "Eat slowly... I didn't lie to you, I told you before that your father would treat you to a big meal~"
"Thank you, Daddy! I'll give you half!"
Princess Xiaojin thanked her in a baby voice, broke off most of the dragon horn and stuffed it into the hands of the Nine Cloud Fox Demon.
Jiuyun Fox Demon's face froze. He took the dragon horn away and said, "I don't want to eat it."
"Daddy, eat it!" Xiao Jin stuffed it back.
"I said I don't want to eat it." The Nine Cloud Fox Demon took it away again.
"Eat!"
“…”
After several rounds of fighting, it was obvious that the Nine Cloud Fox Demon was no match for his own daughter.
In the end, he had no choice but to accept half of the dragon horn with a gloomy face.
Shisui asked him, "How have you thought about it?"
"go."
Jiuyun Fox Demon simply said this one word, but Shisui still couldn't sense any emotion from him.
She stood up, dusted herself off, and took out a large gourd from her bag. She also imitated him and said two simple words: "Come in."
Nine Cloud Fox Demon: ???
The gourd in Shisui's hand is a magical tool to seal monsters.
If he went in, he would be carried away by Shihui, and it would cause a lot of damage to his demon.
Being sealed by a magical weapon is a disgrace for a monster! It's even worse than being killed by one's own kind!
If it weren't for the fact that she brought Princess Xiaojin here, the Nine Cloud Fox Demon might have attacked Shi Sui long ago.
"Ahem... You can't visit Princess Wenzhu openly now. You can only see her secretly, otherwise she will definitely be taken advantage of."
Shi Sui told Jiuyun Fox Demon about the current serious situation in Huitou Village.
The Nine Cloud Fox Demon was completely confused after hearing this, and an expression other than indifference finally appeared on his face. He was very puzzled.
"I don't quite understand your rules. If Princess Wenzhu's nephew disrespects her, wouldn't it be better to kill him?"
"I know you in the demon world are used to attacking anyone who disobeys you, but human society is much more complicated. Bu Yuchuan is the successor to the city lord. He can't die now, otherwise it will cause unrest in Huitou Village... Oh, forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you."
Shi Sui sighed and asked him again, "If Bu Yuchuan used the monster contract to order you to capture cities and territories for him, would you really do it?"
"Yes. That contract is sworn on my life. As long as that person bleeds the blood of the Bu family, I have no choice but to obey his orders."
The Nine Cloud Fox Demon pulled open her clothes, revealing a seal on her chest that went from her skin to her heart.
His determination to repay his gratitude is clear to all.
Shi Sui shook the large gourd in her hand and said, "Have you made up your mind? If so, come here and I'll take you to see Princess Wenzhu secretly. Of course, this is a bit risky, and I can't guarantee that Bu Yuchuan won't find out."
“…” The Nine Cloud Fox Demon’s face was full of rejection.
Shi Sui came out under the pretext of sealing the Nine-Cloud Fox Demon and hid the Nine-Cloud Fox Demon in the Demon-Subduing Gourd. What should she do if she couldn't report back? What if she was discovered by Bu Yuchuan... She had actually thought of countermeasures for all these problems a long time ago.
Shi Sui would not let Jiuyun Fox Demon's kindness be used as a weapon to kill.
She said this on purpose just to test and see how much Princess Wenzhu meant to him.
…
While Shi Sui was out looking for the whereabouts of the Nine Cloud Fox Demon, Bu Yuchuan was not idle in Huitou Village either.
He reorganized his army and practiced formations every day, dreaming of conquering all 29 cities in the Western Regions in one fell swoop.
He also set his first target of attack on Dayan City, the hometown of his wife Bai.
Bu Yuchuan counted the days Shi Sui would be away on his fingers, estimating that she would be back in about ten days, so he began to force his wife to reveal the actual military strength and defense layout of Dayan City.
Bai cried and begged for mercy: "Please calm down, sir! I have been raised in seclusion since I was a child and know nothing about government affairs!"
"I don't know... If you don't know, just write and ask! Send someone to find out!" Bu Yuchuan cursed as usual, "A married woman must obey her husband. If you only protect your parents' family, the position of the City Lord's wife will be taken by another woman in the future! Don't even expect your daughter to become a legitimate daughter!"
Bu Yuchuan slammed the door and left.
Bai covered her face and cried, heartbroken.
She held her almost six-month-old belly and knelt on the ground along the wall.
Since childhood, Bai has followed her mother's teachings to be a virtuous wife who wholeheartedly supports her husband and raises her children.
She did it, and she felt that she had done her best to take care of everyone in the Bu family, young and old, and there was nothing wrong with it.
But in the end, she only got the title of general's wife. What did she get except beatings, scolding and disgust from her husband?
Is her effort really worth it?
At this moment, the seeds of self-doubt began to grow in Bai's heart.
