Chapter 207: The Ruler of the Demon Realm
Ye Fei was somewhat surprised to see the woman in red robes getting along so well with Qing Li.
It turns out that the "familiar and comforting summoning power" that Qingli had mentioned to her earlier came from this woman in red...
"Is it your contracted beast?" The woman in red robes raised her golden eyes and looked at Ye Fei again.
"Yes."
"What's your name?"
“Its name is Qingli,” Ye Fei replied.
The woman in red raised her lips slightly and gently placed Qingli on Ye Fei's shoulder: "The Senluo Qingli Kite is a very special race among wood-type spirit beasts, but because this race only produces one spirit beast egg in its lifetime, its numbers are now extremely rare. As its contractor, I hope you will treat it well."
Ye Fei blinked: "You seem to know a lot about spirit beasts. Could you be a beast tamer?"
“No.” The woman in red robes shook her head. “I understand spirit beasts because they are all my people.”
The people?
Ye Fei raised her delicate eyebrows, a thought suddenly popping into her mind: "Could you be... the ruler?"
"My name is Chi Ye."
The woman's eyes were fixed on Ye Fei, and her red lips parted slightly: "You guessed right, I am the ruler of the demon realm."
A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Fei's eyes. This dashing young woman, who seemed capable of dominating the world, was actually the ruler of the demon realm!
She had read in relevant books that the demon realm was inhabited by various beasts, demons, and elves. Although the name of the ruler was not mentioned, this ruler had an honorific title—Holy Emperor.
It's no wonder that Qingli is so close to her; Qingli is a spirit beast, and it's natural for it to feel a sense of submission when facing a ruler.
"And this too." Chi Ye then handed the bone flute to her, his tone as cold as ever: "Just accept it as I told you to."
Ye Fei moved her lips: "I..."
Before he could finish speaking, footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave!
Ye Fei suddenly turned around and saw that the white-robed man who had left earlier had actually returned.
He stared incredulously at Ye Fei and Chi Ye inside the cave, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and swiftly pointed the scepter in his hand at the two of them—
"court death!"
Chi Ye narrowed her golden eyes, grabbed with her five fingers, and a crimson flame shot out from her palm!
The white-robed man was struck in the chest by the extremely fast-moving crimson flame, staggering back several steps. A metallic taste rose in his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
With a wave of her hand, Chi Ye summoned a powerful spear wreathed in crimson flames. Holding the spear, she ruthlessly plunged it into the throat of the white-robed man!
The man in white struggled on the ground for a few seconds before falling silent. His unseeing eyes stared straight at Ye Fei, as if asking why Ye Fei had lied to him.
Ye Fei turned to look at Chi Ye, then, as if struck by a thought, pointed to the corpse on the ground: "Can I have him?"
Chi Ye drew his spear and looked at Ye Fei with a puzzled expression: "Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid?" Ye Fei laughed. She raised her left hand, and the Prisoner Orchid rushed over as if it had smelled its prey. Its blue branches eagerly burrowed into the corpse, greedily absorbing every bit of its flesh and blood.
Chi Ye stared intently at the alluring orchid blooming in her palm: "What is this?"
"Parasitic Demon Plant, Imprisoned Bone Orchid".
The branches absorbed the blood quickly, and in no time, the corpse became dry firewood; its death was truly gruesome.
The Prisoner Orchid, having eaten and drunk its fill, frolicked happily in Ye Fei's palm. Ye Fei couldn't help but chuckle and gently stroked its petals.
"A demonic plant? So you're not human." Chi Ye finally understood why this girl was different from other humans.
