Chapter 131: The Master Sister Kidnapped the Demon Lord
Wei Zhuyun was caught in an unprecedented dilemma.
On one side is his mission as the Demon Lord, and on the other side is Mingnan.
Choosing either one is bound to let down the other.
What should he do?
Mingnan saw that he looked solemn and sighed softly.
205 was a little unhappy. [Why is he still tangled up? Shouldn't he stand firmly by your side at this time?]
Mingnan laughed, "Do you think this is as simple as a child's play?"
[And——] She looked at Wei Zhuyun's handsome face and said with relief: [He obviously doesn't love me to that extent.]
【That's fine. 】
If something happened to her, at least he wouldn't be unable to get over it.
"I know you are not an ordinary demon cultivator, Wei, you are the king of the demon clan. Whether you are the Demon King or the Demon Lord, I don't care, and I don't want to embarrass you, so you and I are destined to only go this far."
Mingnan finished his fruit, stood up, clapped his hands and said, "Thank you for your care over the past two days. I'm leaving now."
"Mingnan——"
Wei Zhuyun called her name subconsciously.
Mingnan paused slightly and stood at the entrance of the cave. The mountain breeze blew her long hair, and she did not look back.
Wei Zhuyun didn't know what to say, calling the name was just driven by instinct.
Mingnan smiled silently and said in a relaxed tone: "If I can come back this time, I will treat you to a drink again."
Having said that, she turned and walked into the night without stopping.
Wei Zhuyun watched her figure disappear bit by bit, and the light in his eyes dimmed bit by bit.
Soon, a dark figure flashed in from outside the cave, knelt on one knee and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to chase me?"
Wei Zhuyun took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, then asked in a deep voice, "Have you cleared out all the people?"
"Yes, the remaining criminals under Wei Ming have all been executed."
Wei Zhuyun nodded, "Pass on my order and let Wei Yan act on my behalf temporarily. Anyone who has second thoughts will be killed without mercy."
"Then your Excellency—"
"Follow me."
"yes."
…
Mingnan did not follow the wind after leaving the cave. Her spiritual power was now exhausted, so she tried to save as much as possible and simply walked towards her destination step by step.
Whenever she came across a place with abundant spiritual energy on the road, she would stop to meditate and practice.
Wait until your body recovers before continuing on your journey.
Wei Zhuyun was right, there were many wild fruits and monsters in this forest. Some of them had little attack power, but had thin skin and thick meat, and they were quite delicious when roasted.
Mingnan would catch two to improve his diet when he had nothing to do.
When she was tired from traveling at night, she would sleep on branches or in caves.
Although she didn't encounter any danger, there were too many animals and insects in the forest, which were annoying. They kept chirping at night and made her sleep restlessly.
But this situation soon improved.
Mingnan woke up peacefully again. He sat on a tree branch with his hand on his brow, gazing at the rising sun.
[205, do you feel that you have become much quieter recently? ]
205: [Is there?]
[Yes, I was never woken up at night. ]
Mingnan thought, "When did it start?"
A gentle breeze blew through the treetops. She seemed to sense something and suddenly turned her head to look. A snow-white rabbit flew past quickly.
[Host, are you too nervous? ]
[Maybe.] Mingnan said nothing more. She jumped lightly, her wide sleeves fluttering, and landed steadily on the ground. She took out two fruits and ate them while walking forward.
After she walked a long way, a hint of red appeared from behind the tree.
…
The closer you get to the forbidden area where the demon is sealed, the thinner the surrounding spiritual energy becomes, and the more restless the monsters become.
However, in just two days, Mingnan encountered two waves of beasts.
They fled in all directions, killing each other, and the scene was once very bloody.
Mingnan had no place to stand, so she had to fly over. Fortunately, after this period of recuperation and the help of elixirs, her spiritual power had almost recovered.
After dodging the last wave of beasts, Mingnan finally entered the forbidden area.
In contrast to the outside, it is very quiet here, and even the ancient trees look more desolate than those outside.
As he walked, his view became wider and wider. Until he reached the center of the forbidden area, Mingnan did not encounter any monsters. Even the trees were gone. The surroundings were desolate with only overgrown weeds.
[Host, be careful. I feel like something is watching us from the dark.]
Mingnan felt it without being reminded.
That line of sight seemed to be there and not there, yet it followed me like a shadow.
Mingnan immediately entered a state of alert.
[205, help me find the spiritual herbs.]
[Hey? Aren't you here to seal the demon? ]
Mingnan said as he walked: "Now that we are here, the magical herbs are so useful, maybe they will come in handy later?"
205: […Okay, okay, I’m here now.]
It scanned the area and said in surprise: [In the east direction, host, please go forward. The spiritual grass is blood red and looks like a burning flame at first glance.]
Mingnan immediately flew in the direction it said.
There was just a hint of red in the vast green, which was too eye-catching. Mingnan saw it at the first sight.
She didn't rush to land, but took out two spirit stones from her storage ring and threw them down.
Before the spirit stone hit the ground, it was crushed into powder by vines that suddenly emerged from the ground.
205: [Wow! Fortunately you didn’t go down. ]
Mingnan sneered, "But I'm going down now."
She waved her hand, and the long sword flashed with a cold light and fell into her palm.
She gripped the hilt of her sword tightly and dove down.
The vines sensed the scent of their prey and immediately pounced on it with their claws and fangs bared.
These vines are completely black and covered with dense thorns. There is light flashing between the thorns, and you can tell at a glance that they are extremely sharp.
Mingnan swung his sword and grabbed the vine, chopped it hard, and the "clang" sound made her arm numb.
So hard?
Mingnan was startled. The vine that originally entangled her split into two and pressed straight against her face!
She tried to draw her sword, but it was entangled by the vines instead.
"Quite smart." Mingnan praised and finally took it seriously.
She decisively threw away her sword, leaped up, formed seals with her hands, and attracted countless thunderbolts to strike down!
This time the vines were directly burnt, twisting wildly in the electric light, making a sizzling sound, and the air was instantly filled with an extremely fishy smell.
Mingnan almost vomited from the smell.
Could this vine be growing on a corpse?
She sealed her sense of smell and recalled the sword. This time it was much easier to cut the vines, and soon the red magical herb was exposed to her sight.
She stretched out her hand to pick it, and suddenly a piece of white silk flew out from the side.
[Fuck, why is there another sneak attack?] 205 said angrily.
Mingnan pulled away, steadied himself, looked back, and sneered, "It's true that enemies often meet on a narrow road."
"Mingnan? Why you again?"
Ruan Youming took back the white silk and looked at the person beside him, "Master, what should we do? She is also here to look for spiritual herbs."
Ji Wuqing's complexion has returned to normal, and it seems that his injuries have healed.
When their eyes met, Ji Wuqing said coldly: "Since you all want it, then grab it with your ability."
"How dare you say that? If you hadn't interfered, I would have already got the spiritual herbs by now. If you want to take it, just take it. Why are you making excuses?"
Mingnan sneered disdainfully, thought for a moment, took a step back and said, "Forget it, I'll give you this magical herb, take it and get out of here."
Ruan Youming looked at her suspiciously: "Are you so kind?"
