"Lord Zhu Ji, look over there!" His men quickly noticed Shu Yun and his group. "How did they get away?"
“That is…” Zhu Ji narrowed his eyes, “Penglai Shuyun…”
Why is she here? With her here, it's probably impossible to kill Jiang Yan using this Demon Devouring Cave.
His face was tense. The credit for killing the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm was within his grasp, but then Shu Yun suddenly appeared and ruined his plans.
The subordinate let out a soft "Huh?", "Jiang Yan doesn't seem to be with them."
He carefully scanned the group of people and indeed did not see anyone who looked like the person in the portrait.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. That made sense. Jiang Yan was the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm, and Shu Yun must have come to admire the flowers with the people from Penglai. How could the two of them be together?
Although the people of Penglai offended him a hundred years ago, and he was unhappy about it, he did not want to openly stand against Shu Yun. No one would want to be an enemy of a god on the open.
Zhu Ji pondered for a moment, then said, "Tell everyone to get ready; it's our turn to enter."
"yes."
The Demon Devouring Cave seemed to have sensed their intention to escape, and its attack became even more ferocious. Shu Yun protected so many people at once, and even had half of her divine power sealed. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't exhausted.
However, she was more worried about Jiang Yan's safety than about getting him to remove the Linglong Shackles. She led her people forward, and the crowd grew larger and larger, but she still couldn't see Jiang Yan.
Although with Jiang Yan's current cultivation level, if something happened to her, whose power was sealed, he might not be in danger, she was still worried. The scene of Jiang Yan devouring the corpse beast when they met again was still vivid in her mind. Who knew if Jiang Yan would choose to devour the demonic energy of these tentacles?
In just a hundred years, a human demon cultivator with no cultivation level has risen to such a powerful level. It's obvious that he must have used some unorthodox methods.
Normally, it's fine if she's by his side, keeping him from using his demonic energy. But now that the situation is critical and she's not around, it's unknown how much demonic energy Jiang Yan might have inhaled.
Feng Ziyi's magical artifact spun around him, occasionally emitting wisps of immortal energy that slashed at the tentacles.
Shu Yun glanced into the depths of the valley from time to time. He saw it clearly: he, Zi'e, and Siming were all there. Wasn't it obvious who Shu Yun was looking for?
He thought to himself, "No way, it seems Shu Yun really cares about that kid."
Someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise. It turned out that black demonic energy was surging in from outside the gale. When the tentacles couldn't get in, they turned into ethereal demonic energy and silently seeped in.
Chaos erupted among the crowd. Not only were immortals protected by the gale, but also demons. Originally, the disaster was instigated by the demons, and the immortals were quite dissatisfied that the demons were also being protected.
Demonic energy suddenly flew in again, causing chaos and escalating tensions between the two groups of humans, with many hot-tempered individuals directly engaging in combat.
"It's all because of you greedy, insatiable demons that things have turned out this way, and you still have the nerve to seek the protection of our gods?"
The dragon girl was just as impatient as her father. Her golden dress was dazzling, and she looked at the demons with arrogance and disdain.
"Shu Yun is a high god of Penglai, 'our high god'? You've got some nerve," the demon retorted sarcastically.
"What did you say?" The Dragon Girl was furious. "You actually said I have a big face?"
A female demon swayed her serpentine waist and sneered, "I thought the Dragon King's daughter would be pretty, but it seems she's just so-so, she can't even tuck her dragon horns in properly."
The Dragon Girl hates nothing more than being mocked by others for not being able to retract her dragon horns after transforming into human form. She summons her magical artifact to take action.
The succubus's eyes flashed with ferocity, and her body was wreathed in demonic energy. "Come on, with your cultivation level, you're not even enough to fill my teeth."
The situation was on the verge of erupting, and a gale swept between the two of them.
The Goddess Shu Yun, who had been staying behind the group to cover their retreat, walked over at some point, her eyes icy and her tone even colder, "Anyone who makes a sound will be thrown out."
Despite having such a strikingly beautiful face, when she spoke coldly, no one dared to openly scrutinize the goddess's appearance, and instead behaved themselves and stopped causing trouble.
A dazzling divine power flowed from Shu Yun's hands, mixing with demonic energy, causing the blackness to continuously dissolve and be purified.
As Shu Yun's divine power was constantly being depleted, it gradually became empty, and even her complexion turned somewhat pale.
The immortal who had been avoiding the demonic energy for fear of it invading his body breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely bowed to Shu Yun, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Many people echoed and bowed in unison.
Shu Yun waved for them to get up, "We've arrived."
Everyone followed her gaze and saw that they were indeed outside the formation's range. The black tentacles swayed unwillingly behind them, but without the support of demonic energy outside the formation, they couldn't get out.
As the gale subsided, Shu Yun felt a little dizzy when her feet touched the ground. Feng Ziyi, who was standing beside her, quickly stood up and supported her with his wide sleeves.
"You should take a rest."
He pulled Shu Yun and asked her to sit down.
Shu Yun shook her head. "No need."
She needs to take a break and go back in to find Jiang Yan.
Feng Ziyi whispered to her, "I know what you're thinking. If you go in to look for someone now, won't you be putting yourself in danger too?"
Shu Yun glanced at him with some surprise, a half-smile on her face, "I thought you were going to jump up and down and not let me go."
“I’m not that petty,” Feng Ziyi paused, “I just can’t stand Jiang Yan.”
Seeing Zi'e and Siming talking to each other, Feng Ziyi pulled Shu Yun a little further away and whispered, "But speaking of which, haven't you been struck by love?"
"Have I told you everything?"
"You think you can fool Si Ming and Zi E?"
"..."
"No means no."
Shu Yun lowered her eyelashes and sighed softly.
Feng Ziyi glanced at her and said, "If you really like him, then go ahead and like him. Although I can't stand that brat Jiang Yan, if you like him, I'll put up with it for now."
"..." Shu Yun looked up, "I'm so sorry to have wronged you."
"It's alright, I'm pretty sensible."
"..."
