Bai Ling successfully became the new generation of demon king in the demon world.
Emperor Xuanyu left, and Bai Ling invited Chuchu and Lu Chenguang to visit the demon world.
In the celebration of Bai Ling becoming the new generation of demon king, the demon world was decorated like a dream, filled with unprecedented joy and peace.
Above the sky, colorful clouds are swirling, as if they are the most gorgeous tapestry of nature, adding a bit of mystery and splendor to this grand moment.
On the ground, flowers of various colors compete with each other in beauty and emit refreshing fragrance. They are not only gifts from nature, but also the concrete expression of the joy of the creatures in the demon world.
Monsters of various shapes, dressed in gorgeous costumes, shuttle among them. Some of them are naive, some are majestic. Some have wings and fly lightly, while others have scales that shine brightly. Each face reveals a unique charm and story.
In the center of the celebration, a high platform built of rare and precious stones stood. Bai Ling, dressed in a royal robe and a golden crown, stood on it majestically yet gently, accepting the worship and blessings of the demons.
Her smile was like the spring sun, warm and bright, illuminating the hearts of every demon.
Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang were led to the bottom of the platform as distinguished guests. The surrounding monsters looked at them with curiosity and welcome. At this moment, the entire monster world seemed to have become a big family, celebrating this historic moment together.
As the night faded, the sky began to turn pale, signaling the dawn of a new day in the human realm. At this glorious banquet in the demonic realm, what should have been a scene of joyful singing, laughter, and clinking glasses, Bai Ling's sudden action had instead turned the atmosphere into a solemn and tense one. Though the lights in the hall shone brightly, they seemed unable to illuminate the haze lingering within everyone.
Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang exchanged glances, each seeing confusion and wariness in the other's eyes. Chu Chu stepped forward, her voice tinged with confusion and questioning, "Bai Ling, while we're not close friends, we've always gotten along well. Why are you treating me like this today? What exactly do you want to do?"
Bai Ling chuckled softly, but her laughter lacked any joy, instead revealing a chill. She waved her hand, signaling the surrounding demons to retreat. Only the three of them remained in the hall, and the atmosphere grew even more oppressive.
Bai Ling's eyes became complex and deep, as if at this moment, she had taken off all her disguises and revealed her true self.
"You guys are not really my guests of honor, are you?" Bai Ling's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a heavy hammer, striking the hearts of everyone present.
She slowly walked to the center of the hall, with her back to the rising sunlight outside the window, as if she wanted to merge into the passing night.
"Youyan, she was in love with you, but was harmed by you. Do you think you can leave easily?" Bai Ling finally revealed the secret in her heart. It was the pain that she had buried deep in her heart and did not want to touch.
It turns out that the demon king Youyan, captured by the Emperor, was not just a leader of the demon world, but also Bai Ling's true love. Their love, like the most gorgeous flower in the demon world, has now withered in an instant.
Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang were obviously surprised.
Chu Chu said coldly: "That Youming is hiding dangerously and taking human lives lightly. He must be eliminated! I thought you, Bai Ling, were a righteous man, but I didn't expect you to be unable to distinguish between good and evil. No wonder you asked me about Youyan's whereabouts in the human world!"
"Do you think you can erase the crimes you've committed with just a few words of explanation?" Bai Ling turned, her eyes as cold as ice, staring directly at Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang. Her tone was filled with anger and resentment, as if she wanted to pour out all the grievances and pain.
Chu Chu was shocked when she heard this. She had never imagined that behind this seemingly simple banquet, there was such a deep-seated hatred and resentment. She tried to explain, "Bai Ling, you misunderstood. We really didn't know anything about the Youyan Demon King..."
However, Bai Ling didn't intend to listen to her anymore. She interrupted, "That's enough! I don't need your explanations, nor do I need your sympathy. I only know that you were the indirect cause of You Yan's misfortune. It was you who made me lose the person I loved most. Today, you can't even think of leaving here!"
As Bai Ling's words pierced the air like ice, the atmosphere within the hall froze. The demonic energy from all around surged like a tidal wave, tightly binding Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang in a cage woven of demonic energy. The demons that had once docilely wandered through the banquet now seemed to have awakened their dormant savagery. Their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty glints, their fangs bared, and they let out low growls, forming an impenetrable circle.
Chu Chu took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner panic. She knew that panic would only put her in greater danger. Her Qingming Sword instantly unsheathed, its blade reflecting the flickering light of the surrounding demonic energy, appearing exceptionally sharp and resolute. Lu Chenguang stood beside her, back to back, his hands tightly gripping a staff shimmering with a faint blue light. It was the symbol of his status as a human cultivator and the source of his power.
"Are you ready?" Lu Chenguang's low voice sounded beside Chuchu's ears, with unquestionable determination, "Follow me closely, I won't let you get hurt!"
Chuchu nodded, a warm feeling welling up in her heart. In this crisis-ridden moment, having such a reliable partner by her side undoubtedly gave her great courage.
The battle was about to break out. Lu Chenguang took the first step. He waved his staff and chanted a spell. Then a purple light shot out from the tip of the staff, cutting through the night sky like lightning and heading straight for the nearest monster.
The monster obviously didn't expect Lu Chenguang to have such a powerful attack. It was caught off guard and was hit by the light. It let out a shrill scream and turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated into the air.
Seeing this, Chu Chu was not willing to be left behind. She stretched out her body, like a spirit swallow flying through the clouds, and swung her long sword, creating a sword shadow. Wherever she passed, the monsters fell down one after another.
Her swordsmanship was fast and accurate, and each strike was aimed directly at the monster's vital points, demonstrating her extraordinary strength as Princess Qingming.
However, the demons in the demon world are numerous and strong, and even if Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang join forces, they gradually feel exhausted.
Bai Ling even took action personally, transforming into a giant nine-tailed white fox. Its nine tails were like nine silver lightning bolts, interweaving into a net in the air and attacking the two of them.
Each of her attacks contained the power to destroy the world, forcing Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang to use all their strength to barely resist.
The battle lasted too long, and the hall was already in ruins.
Finally, Chuchu found a flaw. She seized the opportunity and swung her sword like a dragon emerging from the sea, piercing Bai Ling's vitals.
Although Bai Ling dodged in time, she was still knocked back several steps by the attack, revealing a brief flaw.
Seeing this, Lu Chenguang immediately seized the opportunity and waved his staff. A dazzling light cut through the space and hit Bai Ling's heart.
Bai Ling let out a shrill scream, and its huge body gradually shrank until it finally turned into a human form. It fell to the ground, its face as pale as paper. Seeing this, the demons stopped attacking and retreated to Bai Ling's side, their eyes filled with fear and anxiety.
Chu Chu and Lu Chenguang smiled at each other, although they were exhausted.
Just as they were about to leave, Lu Chenguang suddenly shook and his face turned extremely pale.
